What Are You Doing?

"Hmm, this should be it."

Bai Luoming looked at the thick graffiti on the wall in front of him. There was only one room at the end of this area, which must be Silver Wolf's room.

He walked to the door, bent his knuckles and knocked lightly. Before he could speak, Silver Wolf's voice came from inside.

"Stop banging! I'll finish this round before I leave!"

Bai Luoming was taken aback. It seemed that Silver Wolf was still playing games, but he didn't know what he was playing. However, he had some other thoughts now.

He knocked on the door again, and before Silver Wolf could reply, he shouted loudly at the door, "Is that you Great Love Wolf Venerable? Your family is calling you for dinner!"

"Holy crap, a box?!"

Hearing Silver Wolf's words abruptly stop before he could finish, Bai Luoming unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth. Sure enough, being called by your online name in real life is just like being called by your real name online; anyone would be dumbfounded.

The Silver Wolf inside the room was indeed confused, but it wasn't what Bai Luoming had imagined.

"Was that voice just now... Bai Luoming?"

Silver Wolf muttered to herself, her voice filled with disbelief, but she quickly realized that someone outside the door was definitely playing a prank on her. How could Bai Luoming possibly be here?

But... what if?

Thinking of this, she lost all interest in playing games, put down the controller, and jumped off the gaming chair.

"Damn slippers, why are they arranged like this?! Where's the other one?"

As she searched for her slippers, she shouted threats at the door.

"Not only did you not take me on the mission, but you're also doing this to me...?!"

As she spoke, she flung open the door, but the person who appeared outside was not what she expected, but a man who was familiar yet somewhat strange to her.

What do you want?

Bai Luoming looked down at the dazed Silver Wolf and smiled, but the smile had barely appeared on her face when she saw Silver Wolf suddenly dart into the room, and then she slammed the door shut with a loud "bang".

He touched his nose, momentarily unable to figure out what was going on with Silver Wolf.

Silver Wolf leaned against the door, breathing heavily. She never expected that the little surprise Kafka had mentioned would be so big!

Yes, earlier when Kafka came to her with snacks, she had told her there was a little surprise, but at that time she was busy with the game and didn't pay attention to Kafka.

If I had known this beforehand, who would have played the game?!

She took a quick breath and then tidied her appearance, making sure she looked perfect when she appeared before Bai Luoming.

With that thought in mind, she opened the Aether Editing, and as her fingers flew across the screen, a mirror appeared in her hand.

Silver Wolf picked up the mirror and carefully examined himself. Although he had some dark circles under his eyes from staying up late for the past two days, he looked pretty good overall.

"Hmm, it has to be me. I'm naturally beautiful; I look good even without makeup."

As he spoke, Silver Wolf casually tossed the mirror in his hand aside. The mirror vanished upon touching the ground, turning into a torrent of data.

Aether Editing, isn't that amazing?

"Call..."

Silver Wolf faced the door, took another deep breath, and then flung the door open.

At this moment, Bai Luoming bent his knuckles and stood at the door, seemingly preparing to knock again.

"Oh, you're out?"

Upon seeing Bai Luoming like this, Silver Wolf could no longer contain his emotions and pounced on Bai Luoming directly from the room door.

Before Bai Luoming could even react to the sight of the Silver Wolf, she pounced on him and pulled Silver Wolf into her arms. The force with which she charged was immense, and Bai Luoming involuntarily took two steps back, nearly being knocked over.

"Be gentle, I almost fell."

Bai Luoming didn't know why Silver Wolf was so agitated, but he still reached out his hands to support Silver Wolf, preventing her from sliding and falling due to inertia.

"Wow, it really is you, hehe."

Silver Wolf's voice was full of joy. Although she didn't know what was going on, the warmth in her arms told her that this was not a dream, but a real situation.

Bai Luoming freed one hand, patted the Silver Wolf on the back, and said, "Alright, get off me first, let's get ready for dinner."

"I don't!"

A spoiled voice rang out from his arms. Silver Wolf raised its head and looked straight at him, its eyes full of dissatisfaction with Bai Luoming's words.

Bai Luoming looked at the Silver Wolf with a helpless expression and said to her, "It's not easy for me to leave like this, and it wouldn't look good if others saw us."

"What's wrong! I haven't seen you in so long, what's wrong with a hug!"

As Silver Wolf spoke, she nuzzled her head into Bai Luoming's arms, greedily inhaling his scent. But no matter how she smelled him, she felt a sense of familiarity with Bai Luoming's fragrance, though she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

Well, it's been a long time since we last met, but I've never seen you before, dear...

Bai Luoming sighed inwardly upon hearing this. Silver Wolf was really straightforward; he wasn't even pretending anymore.

Just as Bai Luoming was hesitating about what to do, someone quietly walked up behind him.

"Silver Wolf, Luo Ming, what are you doing?"

A gentle voice sounded from behind Bai Luoming. The voice was soft, yet it seemed to contain a raging storm, making Bai Luoming's body tremble.

He turned around with the Silver Wolf in his arms, only to see the gentle-faced Firefly. Although Firefly was smiling, for some reason, he felt as if he were facing a Firefly that might erupt at any moment.

"Ahem, we..."

Bai Luoming was truly at a loss. Why did Firefly come up to see him at this moment, and why was Silver Wolf still clinging to him and unwilling to let go?

Seeing that Bai Luoming was unwilling to explain, Firefly turned her gaze to the Silver Wolf in his arms, and her gentle voice rang out again in the corridor.

"Silver Wolf, can you tell me what's going on here?"

Silver Wolf shrank back as she looked at Firefly, hiding in Bai Luoming's arms. But after only half a second, she raised her head again and spoke loudly to Firefly.

"We haven't seen each other in so long, what's wrong with a hug?"

The moment Silver Wolf uttered those words, alarm bells went off in Bai Luoming's head. Sure enough, Firefly Ying's smile became even more strained. She looked at Silver Wolf and asked with a forced smile, "Really? So you two knew each other all along? How come I didn't know?!"

"Of course you wouldn't know, we are... um..."

Before Silver Wolf could finish speaking, Bai Luoming quickly covered her mouth, then gave Firefly an awkward smile and said, "Kids don't know how to speak properly. We just played games together before, yes, we played games together."

Firefly was clearly somewhat skeptical. Her smile faded, and she took a few steps forward to stand in front of Bai Luoming, looking him directly into the eyes. She asked coldly, "Is it really just a game?"

"Really, really."

Seeing the obvious distrust in Firefly's eyes, Bai Luoming first put the Silver Wolf down, covering its mouth with one hand while extending four fingers of his other hand to swear to Firefly, "If I'm lying to you, may I be short..."

Before he could finish speaking, Firefly stepped forward and pressed a finger against his lips, preventing him from continuing.

"Let's talk about this later; there's no need for oaths."

"Aha..."

"Never mind, remember to come downstairs for dinner. Blade has been urging you for ages."

After finishing her sentence, Firefly ignored Bai Luoming's reaction and strode towards the stairwell.
