### Chapter 34: Cultivating Sentiments and Nurturing Oneself
White Paint left.
And then Night Lan successfully acquired a clingy little follower, an adorable silver-gray haired loli who practically followed her everywhere.
“White Fish, don’t you have anything you want to do?”
“Of course! I just want to stay with you. Does Night Lan hate me now?”
“Not at all.”
Hate a loli with such a great personality? Impossible.
Night Lan was actually quite fond of her.
Besides, White Fish was her first friend.
It was mostly that Night Lan felt a tiny bit shy because White Fish’s gaze was just too strange.
If it was supposed to be a friend’s gaze, it felt a bit too close for comfort.
When they met in the hospital room before, White Fish boldly snuggled up to her, radiating all kinds of affection.
Night Lan considered herself to have some moral standards.
It was fine getting cozy with Night Star, but being close with other girls felt a bit embarrassing.
Was this the side effect of her wish being granted?
So scary!
White Fish walked alongside Night Lan with a cute smile, saying, “It feels like there’s a really warm vibe around you, like a mom.”
“Huh? Really?” Night Lan replied with a weird face.
She didn’t think she radiated maternal vibes; she was the one seriously lacking affection!
White Fish stared at her for a while, then happily wrapped her arms around Night Lan’s.
“Hmm~ It’s probably just an illusion.”
Night Lan couldn’t shake off the persistent White Fish, so she just let her be.
Soon, they arrived at Zero Meow’s place.
Zero Meow was inside her room, livestreaming her drawing, but as soon as she spotted Night Lan, she immediately stopped the stream, completely ignoring her fans’ complaints.
“Meow? Night Lan, you’re here! Who’s this next to you?”
“This is White Fish, White Paint’s little sister, and my friend,” Night Lan introduced.
Zero Meow’s eyes widened in realization, and she became quite interested.
“So she’s the legendary White Paint’s little sister?”
Zero Meow was super friendly and quickly waddled up to White Fish, introducing herself naturally: “Hello, meow~ I’m Zero Meow, nice to meet you!”
“Hello, I look forward to your guidance in the future.”
“Hmm~”
After a brief observation, Zero Meow felt that White Fish seemed like a well-behaved type of loli, which was quite nice.
I wonder if she’s as interesting as Night Lan?
Thinking this, Zero Meow gleefully plopped her drawing tablet in front of White Fish, presenting her latest work.
“Ta-da! This is my new masterpiece, come take a look and give me your opinion~”
Night Lan and White Fish focused their eyes on the drawing.
Soon, Night Lan let out an exclamation.
“Oh~ This black-haired loli looks amazing!”
She had a shy yet alluring expression, just like someone who was pushed onto the bed by their crush, with clothes appropriately disheveled, achieving the perfect balance of suggestiveness without being explicit.
But that wasn’t even the best part.
The black-haired loli was wearing white stockings, and the way her legs intersected formed an enticing forbidden zone. The over-the-knee stockings snug against her creamy thighs, and the way her little white calves with taut insteps stretched the fabric of the stretchy material was just… wow, it looked so good!
So spicy!
Night Lan thought to herself, “I’m good with this at first glance.”
Meanwhile, White Fish continued to calmly observe, not as excited as Night Lan.
After viewing the drawing, White Fish smiled slightly at Zero Meow. “Is there more?”
“Meow?” Zero Meow tilted her head, puzzled.
Wasn’t this enough to stimulate a little girl?
White Fish didn’t seem shy at all.
Looks like Zero Meow would need to ramp things up a notch…
Feeling quite pressured, Zero Meow decided to present her best work to make White Fish blush!
She just didn’t believe she couldn’t get that cute shy expression out of White Fish!
Then White Fish’s gentle voice chimed in.
“Zero Meow, your drawing of Night Lan is really cute. I love it! If you have more, I’d like to see even more of your work.”
“Hmm, really? Too bad I’ve only drawn one right now.”
“Well, if you have any new ones in the future, send them to me.”
“Got it, meow.”
As the two settled their “deal,” Night Lan was left bewildered by their conversation.
“Uh? Is that drawing of me?”
“Hmph! You’re the only one who didn’t notice. You’re really lame,” Zero Meow huffed lightly, her eyes filled with mock pity.
She thought it was because she drew so poorly that Night Lan couldn’t recognize it—it turned out she was just overthinking!
Night Lan widened her eyes slightly, incredulous.
“Wait, I’ve never done that pose, and I’ve never worn white stockings either…”
Zero Meow proudly puffed out her chest.
“Don’t underestimate a painter’s imagination! As long as I want to, I can draw you in all sorts of outfits. Other poses are no problem at all!”
“Wow, the artist is amazing!”
Just as Night Lan finished her compliment, she paused and quickly reacted.
“Wait, don’t just go drawing my suggestive pictures! What if they get out…?”
Night Lan clutched her head, already imagining the worst-case scenario.
If her suggestive drawings got passed around in all the goofy groups, dying from social embarrassment would just be the mildest of her worries. If some creeps used them for their twisted rituals, then she was doomed.
Just thinking about it made her feel sick.
Zero Meow knew what Night Lan was worried about.
“Don’t worry, meow! This is just a private work! I won’t show it to anyone else. While livestreaming, I should be drawing other things. There’s no way I’m gonna show my friend’s suggestive work to strangers.”
“Well, that’s good.” Night Lan felt relieved hearing that.
“So… can you send me a copy after you’re done?”
Whether it was a suggestive picture or not didn’t really matter.
Night Lan just wanted to appreciate the beautiful artwork, cultivate her sentiments, and nurture herself—not that she wanted to see her own suggestive drawing!
“Oh wow~ What a little spicy loli, then I’ll promise you that!”
“I want one too,” White Fish chimed in.
“Uh-huh~ Everyone gets a copy, meow~”
Night Lan muttered, “Clearly it’s my suggestive picture, shouldn’t it have gone through my approval first? Why does bad Zero Meow act like she’s in charge?”
“Whether you see it or not is up to you.”
“Of course I’ll see your suggestive drawing!”
Anyway, after getting Zero Meow’s guarantee, Night Lan felt a little better.
White Fish was her own person, so Night Lan didn’t mind her suggestive picture being shared with a good friend.
Zero Meow had also figured out White Fish’s nature during her brief observations.
Although she seemed very sweet and gentle, she was surprisingly knowledgeable.
She looked completely unfazed by the suggestive drawing, which could be because it wasn’t suggestive enough.
In any case, this little girl was a hidden gem, and she shouldn’t be underestimated.
Moreover, White Fish probably had the serious and responsible White Paint Senior backing her up, so Zero Meow couldn’t just “bully” her without care.
What a shame.
But just having Night Lan seemed enough.
This adorable little angel was just too fun to tease.
Her shy expressions were absolutely entertaining.
It was like holding in a long-overdue pee during the exam, finally dashing to the bathroom once the exams were over, and then feeling the glorious release.
So incredibly delightful!
