Hehe~
Hehehe~~
As the sun set in the west, the afterglow of the sunset gently draped the tidy living room like a golden silk curtain, casting a soft glow over the entire space and adding a warm, cozy atmosphere to the room.
After a certain beautiful girl from next door left, the warm living room was filled from time to time with a series of joyful laughter that couldn’t be held back.
The owner of that laughter, of course, was none other than Su Qi.
He poured a spoonful of rich lion beef brisket soup over the freshly cooked snowy white rice.
The flavor, containing the tenderness of beef and the sweet and sour taste of tomato, was enough to whet anyone’s appetite just by smelling it.
Taking out a spoon, he gently stirred, making sure every grain of rice was wrapped in the broth and beef, then scooped up a big mouthful and brought it to his lips.
The perfect combination of fragrant rice and delicious beef brisket greatly satisfied Su Qi’s stomach after a whole day of hunger.
While satisfying his taste buds, Su Qi couldn’t help but glance at his forehead in the living room mirror.
At that moment, on his fair forehead, there was a soft lipstick mark—one that belonged to a woman.
Looking at that mark, the corner of Su Qi’s lips involuntarily lifted.
Because this was a mark left by none other than Elder Sister Wen Yin, the big sister next door whom he had secretly admired for a long time.
In Su Qi’s memory, he first met Wen Yin when he moved into 1507 at age thirteen.
Since Su Lulu and Wen Yin had always been good friends, and Wen Yin was always gentle with him, often patting his head, Su Qi originally thought Wen Yin just saw him as a little brother.
After all, as a boy, Su Qi had a clear understanding of himself. Among boys, his build was not imposing; although he was slightly taller than his good friend Mo Yu, he was still relatively short overall. He didn’t have any outstanding talents either. With all these characteristics, no matter how he looked at it, he was just an ordinary person, far unworthy of the gentle and elegant Wen Yin, the school beauty.
Because of this, Su Qi had always suppressed his feelings deep inside.
After all, if he confessed rashly and failed, even meeting her afterward would become awkward.
But just now, after receiving ‘interest’ from Wen Yin, Su Qi finally understood something.
It seemed Wen Yin’s affection for him was not merely like that for a little brother. After all, how could there be a sister who would so intimately hold him in her arms and then actively kiss his forehead?
Recalling Wen Yin’s words just before she moved close, “Xiao Qi, don’t be afraid. Today I’m just collecting some interest—I won’t eat you up.”
Although, as a boy, he should have taken the initiative, hearing those words made him a bit embarrassed.
But just the thought that in the future, he might be ‘eaten’ by the gentle Wen Yin, recalling the softness of her embrace, the faint scent of jasmine that surrounded her, and the tingling sweetness her soft lips left on his skin—
Su Qi’s heart seemed to be overwhelmed by a flood of happiness. Eating the incredibly delicious food at the same time only made this joy multiply, creating a chemical effect greater than 1+1=2.
Perhaps because he was too happy,
Although Su Qi originally brought enough dinner to last until tomorrow morning,
Unconsciously, he had eaten it all.
After dinner, just as Su Qi was about to clean the dishes, he suddenly noticed the envelope Wen Yin had left earlier.
He gently opened it, and a refreshing rose fragrance poured out.
Inside the envelope lay a stack of bright red cute papers.
Counting them carefully, there were 30 sheets in total.
After putting away the 30 red notes, Su Qi took out his small notebook to record the amount, already tallying up to six figures.
Feeling warmth in his heart, Su Qi also realized how lucky he had been lately.
Although he had not awakened any ‘protagonist’-type hero ability, having the Su Wife Ability meant he could still earn money through the [Shuxi Bento].
And today, he also confirmed that the big sister next door whom he had long admired liked him back.
The only downside was that his Su Wife Ability had been unexpectedly discovered by Senior Lin Xue.
But… thinking about the mutual interview tomorrow, Su Qi felt that this was a blessing in disguise!
After all, if his ability could help during the exploration of the Saint Ruins, he might be able to join the Azure Blessing Cangyou Wildcat Team.
If he successfully joined the exploration team, the rewards from completing missions would be considerable.
Although Elder Sister Wen Yin had never asked him to repay the debt, Su Qi, as a boy, still had his own bottom line!
After recording his debt amount and washing the dishes, he replied to a few messages. Outside, the sky had unknowingly grown completely dark.
Considering that tomorrow was an important day for him, although he had gone to bed earlier than usual tonight,
To be in good shape, Su Qi did a quick wash-up and obediently slipped under the warm covers.
And just as Su Qi’s breathing gradually steadied, gently caressing the forehead kissed by Wen Yin tonight, he slowly drifted into a sweet dream.
In Lin City, however, there was someone tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
Lin Hidden Mansion—just the name sounded incredibly high-end.
It was renowned throughout Lin City, not only for its luxurious decoration and exquisite design but also because it was the farthest away from the two Saint Ruins in Lin City, offering unprecedented security.
Therefore, residences here were not something money alone could buy.
Yet now, in one of the mansion’s lavishly decorated rooms filled with girlish charm, suddenly a cute loli voice burst out, accompanied by bursts of scolding.
“Damn it, damn it, damn it! How could this happen?! That Su Qi, he actually… dared to impersonate me and claim my novel as his own! I’m furious!!!” The voice was full of anger and dissatisfaction, as if greatly wronged.
If Su Qi were present at this moment, he would definitely be stunned.
Because this person was none other than the class otaku girl who stepped on his foot that afternoon—An Xiaoling.
But the current An Xiaoling was completely different from her school days.
Her freckled little face was now clear of freckles, her cheeks as smooth and elastic as a peeled boiled egg with not a trace of blemish.
Her once unremarkable tied-up black hair was now styled into adorable flowing twin tails, each tied with large pink ribbons, adding an extra touch of cuteness.
The most striking change was An Xiaoling’s pair of ears.
Now that her twin tails were up, her ears were exposed to the air.
Unlike ordinary human ears, An Xiaoling’s were more slender and delicate, almost like an elf straight out of a comic book.
At this moment, An Xiaoling sat proudly in a large gaming chair in front of her desk, wearing white silk thigh-high socks, her soft little feet resting on the chair.
Though her posture was a bit improper,
Because she was so petite and had skin as white as snow,
It didn’t look vulgar but instead added a kind of spoiled cuteness like the little sister next door.
In front of An Xiaoling, her computer was open to an editing document titled .
But except for the title, there was no content.
Clearly, she was stuck.
Bang bang bang~
Perhaps because of this discomfort,
An Xiaoling’s cute, pale fingers repeatedly tapped on the desktop—
But to no avail. Inspiration still didn’t come.
Pouting her rosy cheeks, she blamed Su Qi once again for her writer’s block.
“Hmph, Su Qi, tomorrow I’m definitely going to make him pay.”
Clenching her tiny fists, she muttered her plan for tomorrow to herself.
Ding~
At that moment, the crisp sound of the microwave rang clearly outside the bedroom.
Hearing the sound, An Xiaoling, who had no ideas, promptly slipped on her little bunny slippers, jumped down from the chair, and headed to the kitchen.
When she arrived, a fragrant aroma of food slowly drifted from the microwave.
Smelling it, her amber eyes flickered with excitement and longing.
Excitement because the bento in the microwave smelled absolutely delicious, promising happiness upon eating and even temporarily boosting an ability user’s attributes.
After eating, the warmth in the lower belly was very comforting.
As for longing?
Thinking of that made a trace of infatuation appear on An Xiaoling’s fair face.
Because the boss selling this bento—Su Qi—was super gentle, exactly the kind of perfect big sister she dreamed of!
Her makeup was exquisite, her skin smooth as cream, a faint fragrance lingering around her.
Every time she handed the bento to An Xiaoling, she gave it with both hands and a gentle smile.
Her every move seemed to embody the perfect wife, warm and intoxicating.
Recalling the bento-selling Su Qi and then the imposter Su Qi who pretended to be the writer big face cat,
An Xiaoling carefully took out the half portion of yesterday’s meal she hadn’t dared to finish, now reheated, and sniffed the aroma, mumbling to herself.
“Really, we all share the surname Su, so why is the gap between us so big?”
After saying this, just as she was about to eat the bento, her phone suddenly flickered.
Looking at the screen, it was a message from the Cangyou Wildcat Team group chat.
An Xiaoling initially wasn’t very interested.
After all, group messages usually meant tasks for workers.
But the moment she opened it, An Xiaoling’s eyes widened! She instantly perked up.
What?
Tomorrow, the Su boss selling bento at the night market is going to do cooking for the adventure team?
A mutual interview?
What’s going on here?!
An idol meet-and-greet?!
Awesomeヾ(✿ﾟ▽ﾟ)ノ!
