Lying in the girls’ arms, Snowy Lionet kept using its paws to touch their breasts flagrantly. Frankly, if men tried to touch them, the girls would have been outrageous, but they really enjoyed it when being touched by Snowy Lionet’s soft and tiny paws, and they hoped it could touch them more…
They marveled at the black line on the forehead of Snowy Lionet. At first, they thought it was dyed black, but since most of them had had experience dyeing their hair, after closed observation, they found that the black line was completely natural, and they were amazed by it.
Fina maintained its reserved manner as usual and stood there quietly. It didn’t care much about Snowy Lionet’s popularity—Fina didn’t need intimate contact, in fact, it was disgusted by intimate contact. In Fina’s eyes, its body could not be touched by just any random, ordinary people. Compared to those lovely girls, Fina was more interested in the solemn and divine church. It raised its head and gazed at the tall cross.
The sky was clear, and the autumn air was crisp. A few grey pigeons landed on the white cross and kept making a
cooing
sound. The church and the pigeons were the perfect match at that moment. Even for people who didn’t have any religious beliefs, when seeing such a scene, they would reach their peace of mind without any distractions. Perhaps they would go into the church and listen to the sermon.
Luo Qingyu signed emotionally,
The girls look 30% cuter when holding cats. Don’t you think so?


No, I don’t think so,
Zhang Zian flatly denied.
No matter how cute the girls are, they are not mine… But the cat is mine. Tell them to be gentle with my cat — if its fur gets dirty or any is pulled out, you’ll need to compensate me.


Why are you so stinky?
said Luo Qingyu with a heartache. The cat rental fee had been paid by himself, and not wanting his club members to underestimate his abilities, he was embarrassed to confess to them that the cat was borrowed by him.
As the president of the photography club, Luo Qingyu’s status was unstable, for he didn’t become the president because of his outstanding photography techniques, but through making promises in his campaign that he would make the club develop better. He even boasted that he knew many cute girls and he would invite them to cooperate with the photography club. Since all of the members were male college students who longed to have more contact with girls, Luo Qingyu became the president of the club thanks to hormones.
In fact, most of his promises were just bluffs. He was a bachelor himself back then, and no way would he know a lot of cute girls. It was partly true that he wanted to be the president of the photography club so that he could get dates easily—most girls would like to look pretty in photos, and show their beauty to more people. In the eyes of any layperson, single-lens reflex cameras made a person look very professional. Plus, the title of
President of Photography Club
made a few girls fall for Luo Qingyu.
Actually, the Cosplayers today were contacted by Luo Qingyu. They were nursing students from Binhai Medical College. After learning about Luo Qingyu’s title and what he did, they agreed on a time and place to shoot Cosplay photos.
Zhang Zian just wanted to finish the photo shoot and go home earlier. He couldn’t stand it when those girls kept touching his cat so affectionately. Though the girls and Snowy Lionet enjoyed their intimate contact, he didn’t feel good about it…

Don’t you have photos to shoot? Hurry up, I have other things to do,
he reminded Luo Qingyu.
Luo Qingyu had a headache,
You think I don’t want to hurry up?

He pulled Zhang Zian a few steps back and whispered,
The thing is, this is the very first time these girls have done Cosplay, and they don’t know how to pose or how to move. They even haven’t watched the anime they are cosplaying today. Since they don’t know about the personalities or the habits of the characters they are cosplaying, it is time-consuming to teach them.

From their garments that looked like armors and the giant weapons held in their hands, the girls probably were cosplaying characters from some fighting anime, which was probably demanded by the male Otakus from the photography club. For girls who watched anime, they probably preferred love stories or daily-life genres, so it was not surprising that they had not watched the designated anime.

Aura! The most important thing is aura!
Luo Qingyu stressed,
It doesn’t matter how they dress or how they act, I can teach them those. After all, I’ve watched that anime 30 times, so I know how every girl character looks or acts even with my eyes closed.


Wait a minute!
Zhang Zian could not pretend that he didn’t hear that,
You watch the anime 30 times?


Yep.
Luo Qingyu nodded proudly,
After I go home tonight, I’m going to change my clothes, take a shower, and watch it for the 31st time. I’ve got Nutrition Express and instant noodles ready.


What the hell is Nutrition Express? And what exactly is the anime that you’re watching?

Luo Qingyu raised his long, thin arm and pointed to a girl among the Cosplayers,
See that girl in the red costume?

The Cosplayers were surrounding Snowy Lionet, trying to hold it in their arms. Among them, the most active one was a girl with long, straight black hair. She was wearing a sailor suit with a necktie that was commonly seen in anime. Her long black hair was hanging down perpendicularly like a waterfall. Her short, black skirt and over-the-knee stockings highlighted her snow-white skin. She probably had the most beautiful breasts and legs among those Cosplayers. She was holding Snowy Lionet, giggling and hiding away from other girls, not letting them to touch it. Snowy Lionet narrowed its eyes, smiled wickedly, and touched her breasts with its paws.

Yes, I can see her. She looks cute. What’s her matter?
asked Zhang Zian.

She is supposed to cosplay a Tsundere character!
said Luo Qingyu exasperatedly.
Tsundere, do you understand? She appears tough in front of everyone, while in fact she has a soft and fragile heart when she’s alone. That’s a tremendous gap moe!

He embraced himself, and closed his eyes enchantedly. His body was gently trembling like he was electrified, as if he was holding that imaginative animated character in his arms, and touched her affectionately… He didn’t care about the peculiar looks cast by his friends.
When he opened his eyes, he found that Zhang Zian had stepped back far away from him.
He asked curiously,
Why are you getting away from me? Can’t you feel that I was appraising her for her gap moe?


I only have two words for you – super disgusting!
complained Zhang Zian.
Luo Qingyu felt hurt,
I am the active president of the photography club, I’m not an Otaku who spends entire days in my dormitory.

But Zhang Zian had seen through it.

Stop pretending!
he said coldly.
Even if you are an Otaku, you should abide by the TPO principle!


What is the TPO principal?
asked Luo Qingyu confusingly.

Time, Place, Occasion! Though it’s a guideline for wearing clothes, it’s also applicable to an Otaku like you.
Said Zhang Zian.
The so-called super Otaku were the ones that exhibited their Otaku properties regardless of time, place or occasion.
