Transform into a magical girl after getting off work

Hours earlier, before Emerald Sparrow and Xia Liang had returned in the afternoon, Bai Jingxuan and Lin Xiaolu had finished lunch and began to decorate the living room.

They had learned about Xia Liang's birthday from Emerald Sparrow. The task given to them by Emerald Sparrow was to prepare a surprise for Xia Liang before the two returned.

After a brief lunch break, Lin Xiaolu took the initiative to handle the living room's decor, while Bai Jingxuan naturally headed to the entryway, taking out the flags and fairy lights she had prepared early, and hanging them from the ceiling.

Due to their lack of height, both of them chose a very clever method: they transformed into Magical Girls and used the flight ability of the Magical Girls to hover in the air, thus making the decorating process much more effortless.

As Bai Jingxuan diligently placed the decorations at equal intervals and breathed a sigh of relief, she glanced over at the living room and saw Lin Xiaolu's silhouette meticulously working, which sent her into deep thought.

Having joined the Fangting City team for over a month, she still hadn't figured out the relationship between the three senior team members.

Her teacher—Senior Emerald Sparrow, the team's captain, indeed took on the responsibilities of a senior, guiding every Magical Girl in the squad, a person whom Bai Jingxuan felt very admirable.

However, the relationship between herself and the teacher was indeed purely that of student and teacher, yet the teacher's relationship with the other two seniors seemed not so simple and had facets that she couldn't see.

As for the other two seniors, the relationship between Lin Xiaolu and Xia Liang puzzled her even more.

Lin Xiaolu always seemed to be angry at Xia Liang, and Xia Liang was always intentionally provoking Lin Xiaolu. The two seemed to be at odds on the surface, always arguing over trivial matters whenever they were together. This situation even made Bai Jingxuan feel like she wanted to mediate at one point.

But when she delved a little deeper, she found that things weren't quite what she thought?

Their constant confrontations did not stem from pure dislike; rather, although Bai Jingxuan couldn't quite understand it, their relationship didn't seem as bad as it appeared on the surface?

After all, if Lin Xiaolu truly disliked Xia Liang, she wouldn't be preparing for her birthday with such joy, right?

—"After all, she's just that kind of inarticulate person."

A voice suddenly rang out beside her ear.

Turning her head, Bai Jingxuan saw a pink cat floating next to her, yawning.

"Ah, Moke, you're back!"

Having just finished her task, Bai Jingxuan descended from midair, put on a soft smile, and said to Moke, "How was your day? Did you find any new Magical Girls?"

"No good, no good, no progress at all."

Flapping the wings on its back, Moke cradled its paws with a helpless expression, "It's strange, ever since that incident, there have been fewer Remnant Beasts, and no new potential Magical Girls. Isn't this completely diminishing my role?"

"Isn't it better to be a little more peaceful? You don't really like fighting either, Moke."

"No! I am your Seeder, without Remnant Beasts and newcomers, what's the difference between me and a pet living in a human's house?"

"...You can talk?"

"Xiaoxuan! How can such a good child say such a vicious thing!"n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"Eh? But Moke, you can talk, that's different from ordinary pets, isn't it?"

"I am not a pet! Don't hold me to the standard of a pet!" Moke couldn't help but cry out in indignation.

—"You two, if you've got nothing better to do than chat, come over and lend a hand!"

Lin Xiaolu called out from the living room with impatience, "We're not done yet, where's the time for chitchat?"

"Sorry, Sister Xiaolu, I'm coming right now."

Bai Jingxuan quickly took the remaining decorations and ran to the living room, then looked up and asked Lin Xiaolu who was in the air, "Which side should I work on?"

"The side near the balcony."

Lin Xiaolu pointed casually and continued with the task at hand.

Bai Jingxuan didn't ask any further and once again floated to the middle of the room, following beside Lin Xiaolu to finish the remaining decor work.

Because they didn't have to climb or move a ladder like ordinary people, their efficiency was actually quite high. In no time at all, they completed the planned task and decorated the entire first floor of the villa just as they wanted it.

Cleaning up the leftover wrapping paper and fragments of decorations on the ground, Bai Jingxuan looked around the living room,

"Sister Xia Liang will probably be really happy when she sees all this, right?"

"Dare she not be?"

Lin Xiaolu said with annoyance, "I've taken so much trouble to serve her; if she's not happy, I might have to turn the tables."

"How could that happen." Bai Jingxuan shook her head, "Although I am not Sister Xia Liang, if it were me..."

"You feel a bit envious?" Lin Xiaolu asked, turning to look at her.

"Ah? No, that's not what I meant, I didn't want to trouble you guys..." Bai Jingxuan, with her little thoughts exposed, waved her hands frantically, trying to cover up.

"It's no trouble at all, your turn will come, on your birthday."

Lin Xiaolu glanced at Bai Jingxuan, "You can start thinking about what kind of cake you want for your birthday now."

"That's way too early, my birthday is still a long way off!"

Bai Jingxuan instinctively tried to deny it, but she couldn't help but start to daydream, "But birthday cakes, huh."
