“Okay, okay, Professor Yang Ming. We’ll meet at the lower layer of the Third Plane later.”
As the pure white Maserati pulled into the parking lot beneath Muyang Community, Mo Yu had just finished a video call with Professor Yang Ming.
Seeing Ye Fufu park the car, Mo Yu slipped his phone into his bag. Su Qi, carrying a watermelon-shaped Little Red Pupil, got out of the car.
Mew~ mew mew
Maybe it was the bumpy ride, or perhaps too much energy built up with no release—Little Red Pupil was feeling uncomfortable. As soon as Su Qi stepped out, he heard the little one in his arms let out a soft whine.
Then, in an adorable manner, she wriggled, placed her tiny hands on the little watermelon, and looked up at him with big, watery eyes.
Seeing Little Red Pupil in such a pitiful state, even without Su Xixi—the big interpreter—by his side, Su Qi quickly understood the meaning of her mews.
She was probably asking what to do with the “watermelon.”
He had to admit, Little Red Pupil, who looked like a three-year-old loli, was utterly cute in this soft, sticky manner.
Su Qi had originally wanted to scold Little Red Pupil a little.
After all, the little one had secretly eaten while he was asleep, and greedily devoured three bentos at once.
If he didn’t put a stop to it and let her do it again, it could make her sick—or even cause the little watermelon to explode.
But seeing Little Red Pupil looking a bit uncomfortable now, Su Qi, who had planned to pretend to be angry, ended up turning into a doting father instead.
He said softly, “Little Red Pupil, wait a moment. We’ll go home, grab some things, and then take you to release your energy. Oh, and by the way, you’ll get to see the big guy you like later.”
While Su Qi was comforting Little Red Pupil, Ye Fufu, who had parked the car, walked over to Su Qi’s side and instinctively wanted to comfort the little one too.
But Su Qi just turned his head.
Hmph~
Because this morning, when Su Qi had looked around the scene, he found several empty liquor bottles in his good brother’s house.
No matter how he thought about it, last night’s incident with Little Red Pupil couldn’t be separated from Ye Fufu.
After a quick wash, they set off for Muyang Community.
And when the Cangyou Wildcat Team was about to leave, they happened to run into An Xiaoling, so they gave her a ride.
Now, in the underground garage, seeing Su Qi and the Little Red Pupil in his arms, the scene unfolded.
As the Blood Princess, Lin Xue only needed one glance at Little Red Pupil’s little watermelon to freeze in shock.
Unlike others, who could only judge the size of Little Red Pupil’s watermelon with their eyes, Lin Xue, as the Blood Princess, sensed a large mass of familiar Spiritual Energy fluctuating inside it.
Seeing this, Lin Xue was stunned.
Even when she and An Xiaoling had fed Little Red Pupil together that night, they hadn’t ended up with this much, right?
Just how intense was last night for Little Red Pupil to have eaten so much?
While Lin Xue, in the driver’s seat, swallowed in shock, An Xiaoling, sitting in the passenger seat, was thinking about far more complicated things.
Although she knew that Ye Fufu, as the Saintess, had joined the large multi-person party in the Treasure Space and had a close relationship with Su Qi, in An Xiaoling’s impression, Ye Fufu had always been the kind of person you could “admire from afar but not desecrate,” like a pure white lotus.
But when she thought about it carefully, everyone liked Su Qi for different reasons.
Elder Sister Wen Yin and Mo Yu had liked Su Qi since he was a guy—they were childhood friends.
Lin Xue, as the Blood Princess, was attracted to Su Qi because he smelled good.
As an Elf, she herself had fallen for Su Qi due to a series of coincidences and her first love at first sight with “Sister Su Su.”
But Ye Fufu, as the Saintess, had very few interactions with Su Qi. In An Xiaoling’s mind, Saintesses usually had upright values—how could she engage in this kind of forbidden love?
So all along, An Xiaoling hadn’t been too wary of Ye Fufu, the Saintess.
Throughout the journey, An Xiaoling had been pondering what exactly had happened at Mo Yu’s house last night to result in a three-person party similar to Lin Xue vs. Su Qi a few days ago.
Now, seeing Su Qi, Mo Yu, and Ye Fufu appear together, and Ye Fufu intimately linking arms with Su Qi without Su Qi refusing, An Xiaoling felt a nameless anger rise in her chest.
‘Damn… I trusted you, this Saintess, and you backstab me?’
‘So mad… so mad!’
‘And my Sister Su Su—can’t she resist temptation?’
‘Punishment—she must be severely punished!’
After Lin Xue parked the car, An Xiaoling immediately stormed over to Su Qi, pushing Ye Fufu aside. Lin Xue quickly followed.
With An Xiaoling and Senior Lin Xue arriving, Su Qi pressed the elevator button.
‘Was it his imagination? The air pressure seemed to have become much heavier than before.’
But when he looked up, he saw the four girls staring at each other. None of them spoke; they just kept looking at one another, a faint smile on their lips.
He had to admit, all four girls were beautiful at that moment.
But Su Qi, surrounded by them in a north-south-east-west gossip pattern, felt immense pressure.
And there was an underlying, eerie sense of guilt.
Ding dong~
Fortunately, the elevator Su Qi had called arrived just then.
Seeing the doors open, Su Qi stepped in first and pressed the button for the 15th floor.
He had originally thought the low pressure would ease once they entered the elevator.
But because the elevator was cramped and there were no outsiders around, Su Qi found himself on the verge of tears. The pressure among the four girls had only intensified.
And this time, besides the low pressure, the girls were pressing closer and closer to him, clearly competing for his attention.
An Xiaoling even whispered in his ear, “Sister Su Su, I didn’t expect you to be so easily tempted. Do you like lewdness that much? And group activities? Next time, I’ll have to bring out the tools.”
Hearing the black-hearted loli An Xiaoling’s dubious remarks, and feeling the grip of his good brother Mo Yu tightening around his arm, as well as the sparks of electricity in the air as Lin Xue and Ye Fufu glared at each other, Su Qi finally understood why the pressure was so heavy.
Because… ‘Erm, in a way, this could be called a Shura Field right now!’
‘Damn… And I feel like if this continues, it won’t end well for me!’
‘And it seems An Xiaoling and Senior Lin Xue aren’t giving me a chance to explain!’
‘Damn… If this keeps up, there’s definitely going to be a huge problem when we get back from the Saint Ruins!’
Ding~
Just as Su Qi was feeling overwhelmed and guilty, not knowing how to handle the situation, the elevator finally reached the 15th floor.
“I’m a bit thirsty. I’ll go home and get a glass of water,” Su Qi said, taking the opportunity to dash toward the Su family’s apartment as soon as the elevator doors opened.
But when he reached the door, he was surprised to find it slightly ajar.
‘Did Sister Lulu forget to lock the door last night? That’s not okay. Too careless.’
‘Even though my sister’s Ability is strong, she’s still a girl. Safety matters!’
As Su Qi was lost in thought, the next second, the ajar door was pushed open from inside. A graceful purple figure appeared before him.
It was none other than the neighbor big sister he knew so well, Gu Wen Yin.
Looking at her beautiful face and gentle temperament, breathing in the faint lavender fragrance around her, and seeing Wen Yin’s expression no different from her usual soft and calm demeanor, Su Qi felt the tension from the Shura Field in the elevator ease a little.
Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, Gu Wen Yin reached out and gently patted Little Red Pupil’s small stomach.
Then a mature woman’s voice suddenly rang in his ear.
“Xiao Qi, Little Red Pupil ate so much. You three must have had a great time last night, right? When we get back from the Saint Ruins, let’s feed Little Red Pupil properly too!”
“Oh, by the way, Xiao Qi, you like group activities. Who should we call this time? Lin Xue? Or Mo Yu? Or Ye Fufu?”
Hearing his sister Wen Yin’s casual, intimate words, Su Qi’s just-released tension rose again.
‘Wuwu… No matter how I look at it, Wen Yin is just like An Xiaoling—she’s settling scores!’
‘And what’s with this misunderstanding?!’
‘Who likes group activities?!’
‘Wuwu… I feel like if I don’t explain soon, something bad is going to happen when we get back from the Saint Ruins!’
But just as Su Qi was about to speak, a graceful figure holding an exquisite staff walked out from the hallway.
“Xiao Qi, are you ready to go? Today, I’ll show you how amazing your big sister is.”
Seeing Su Lulu fully armed, and recalling that Mo Yu had just made a call with the Adventurers’ Guild about going to the Saint Ruins together, Su Qi suddenly had a bad feeling.
‘Wuwu… It seems I don’t have time to explain!!!’
