Break It Up, Break It Up-How Can This Still Be a Boss?

Mei secretly glanced at Pellervy.

Beneath his calm expression lay a feeling of "jealousy has distorted my very being."

Ah, I feel like this person's rationality is about to snap—they really like Liu Bai.

Cocoilia, her hands trembling, pressed the shutter button beside her.

She felt that this matter might have offended someone...

"Let's try a different pose for the next one, darling."

After the shutter clicked, Ruan Mei released her hands from Liu Bai's neck and slowly knelt down.

Ah... this pose.

"I can't wait." Ruan Mei stared at the figure in front of her, a longing smile on her face.

"Don't do this, don't do this."

Mei quickly grabbed Pellervy was about to walk forward.

"Don't forget, you're in a cold war right now. A cold war is when whoever backs down first loses. And she took drugs! She took drugs!"

"...Sir, this really can't be filmed." Cocoilia looked at Ruan Mei, whose little hands were fidgeting, and pointed to Pellervy.

That murderous aura was no joke.

Liu Bai nodded and pulled up Ruan Mei, who was kneeling in front of him with her restless little hands.

"... Darling, I haven't even had a chance to admire your magnificent form yet," Ruan Mei said with a coquettish reluctance. "Or are you trying to test my abilities as a wife?"

"Don't give me any strange impressions about these normal words."

Liu Bai's lips twitched.

In another place, Liu Bai would certainly not mind testing Ruan Mei's abilities, but here...

"Peru, I haven't done anything yet!"

"..."

Pellervy didn't say anything, but Liu Bai sensed that "flames of hatred" were beginning to burn in Pellervy pupils.

How long can Mei, as an ordinary person, hold onto Pellervy?

Or rather, how much longer can Pellervy keep up with Mei?

Mei had obviously thought of this as well, and gave Liu Bai a wink.

Stop playing around and fix this!

At the same time, Mei also used her trump card against Pellervy.

Mei leaned close to Pellervy's ear, paused for a moment, and then spoke.

"... Peru, are you feeling lonely because of this cold war these past few days?"

"..."

Mei noticed that Pellervy looked a little uneasy.

After all, she had only known Pellervy for a short time. She only met Pellervy after the research started here, and it had been less than a week since they met. Not to mention that she had spent half of that week outside.

The reason she and Pellervy seemed so familiar was simple: the identities of "Liu Bai's friend" and "Serenitea Pot's companion" were incredibly useful.

It's fair to say that most people here have little to no guard against these two identities—not in the serious sense.

Unlike other times, people started their conversation from the perspective of strangers.

So, Mei's words now are actually... a bit overstepping, or rather, a bit too forward—after all, her knowledge of Pellervy and Liu Bai's relationship is just hearsay and gossip, so it's not appropriate to make any rash comments now.

So Mei is now observing Pellervy's expression.

Pellervy upon hearing this.

Is he lonely because of his cold war with Liu Bai?

Are you kidding me?!

Don't talk like she can't live without Liu Bai!

"Mei, are we that close?"

As expected, that's what they said.

Mei's expression remained relatively calm. After all, she was a cool and aloof academic star in high school, the kind of person who didn't need friends.

Even if I was told that, I didn't feel anything.

However, time has been gained.

Cocoilia then launched an ice attack on Ruan Mei, and without saying a word, dragged Ruan Mei away as her eyes gradually cleared and her face showed shame and anger.

Pellervy Ruan Mei a hostile look, then sized up Liu Bai from head to toe.

"...Hmph." Pellervy snorted coldly, then turned and went upstairs without any hesitation.

It has to be said that today's MVP is Mei—that last sentence caused Pellervy a ton of mental damage.

Pellervy upstairs with a gloomy face.

(When did I become someone who would feel lonely without her? What a joke! At the very least, I have...)

Ah, it seems like it's been a while since I called Krelay.

Is this what they call... a haven of gentle pleasures?

Pellervy suddenly felt a little regretful.

Should I have tried to reconcile with Liu Bai just now...? No! I should regret neglecting Krelay's health these past few days!

Chapter 266 It's over, it's over. What kind of BOSS is this?

"Domination, you're just watching?"

"The subordinates neglected their duties."

As an excellent subordinate, the Herrscher of Dominion did not argue but directly admitted his mistake.

Anyway, even if this happened again, they would still choose to watch. After all, Liu Bai himself is still struggling with the decision, so how could she, as his subordinate, make decisions on her own?

"I'll be more careful next time." Bai Sha nodded seriously. "By the way, Dominator, do you think we should prepare some condoms at home?"

I don't feel very safe lately.

Especially Ruan Mei, to be honest, Liu Bai wasn't quite sure whether Ruan Mei's so-called "conception probability +30%" was a direct addition to the base probability or some other more complex algorithm.

It would be more interesting to just add the base probability directly.

In the case of pseudo-probability, the minimum probability is one out of four hits.

"I don't think it's necessary."

"Hmm? In your eyes, this situation is not necessary?" Bai asked, looking at the Herrscher of Dominion.

—There must be something wrong with using the Herrscher of Dominion.

"No, what I mean is that the vast majority of people will not give you the opportunity to wear it."

The Herrscher of Dominion spoke with a hint of worry.

"Not to mention, including La Signora. Ruan Mei, many people are probably members of the no-condom party."

"..."

This guy, why is he spouting such obvious truths?

Pellervy's room.

"Pellu, good afternoon. What brings you here to call me?"

In the video, Krelay, who seemed to be in much better spirits, gave Pellervy a bright smile.

"And how is Father lately?"

Ughhhhh! Why is Krelay mentioning that guy too?!

"What's wrong? Peru, is there something you want to say?"

"...nothing."

Now that Krelay can perceive her own emotional changes, is it because her emotional management skills are declining?

"Father... well, the same as always." Pellervy coughed slightly awkwardly, trying to regain her composure.

Forget it, to avoid worrying Krelay, I won't tell her about the conflict between me and Liu Bai.

"What does 'the same old thing' mean?" Krelay asked curiously. "I haven't even met Father yet, Father gone."

"Well... he's very busy, after all." Pellervy then remembered that Krelay had never actually met Liu Bai, so she made up an excuse for Liu Bai.

"Yes, I know. It's just a bit of a pity that I didn't thank Father after being saved by Father. By the way, Father home now?"

"He... um... just went out." Pellervy hesitated for a moment before lying.

"Is that so... What a pity."

Krelay looked slightly disappointed.

(... I'm doing this for your own good, Krelay.)

Pellervy sat up in bed, as if this would help her better conceal her expression and alleviate her guilt.

There will definitely be another chance next time.

"Okay! Then next time." Krelay was an optimist by nature, and after resolving her mother's inner conflict, she became very optimistic and positive.

(Looking at it this way, I really am a dark person...) There was absolutely no way to hide the guilt in my heart.

"By the way, Peroo, is there something you wanted to talk to me about?"

"I... just wanted to see how your recovery is going."

Pellervy actually wanted to take this opportunity to vent to Krelay, but seeing Krelay's current state, she simply couldn't bring herself to do it.

"She's recovering very well." Krelay seemed to be proving this by jumping up and down a few times. "She can already resume Valkyries training with her mother."

"Didn't I tell you that person is no longer Kuzkavina?"

Pellervy frowned. Herrscher of Dominion disguised as Kuzkavina was no good.

... Although over the past few days, Pellervy of the Herrscher of Dominion has changed somewhat.

"Well, but..."

"No need to say anything, I think I understand." Pellervy, looking at Krelay's slightly conflicted expression.

Kuzkavina now is just like the ideal mother Krelay imagined.

So even though she knew her current mother was fake, Krelay didn't mind treating her as real—after all, she had long since seen through the true Kuzkavina's true nature, and it was because she couldn't sever her bond with her daughter that she fell into despair.

However, the Herrscher of Herrscher of Dominion, Kuzkavina, has managed to create the image of a good mother that Krelay had imagined in the past.

So Krelay simply pretended not to know that Kuzkavina had been replaced.

It's true that everyone is acting, but what's wrong with this acting creating a harmonious and warm family?

It's better than a bloodbath where killing continues.

"By the way, Peroo, before Father passed away, he asked Aunt Rosalind to build a simple and secluded cemetery for everyone who died. It was just completed the day before yesterday. If you have the chance, you can come back and take a look."

"He... um, I understand."

Pellervy for a moment, then nodded.

"It's simple and secluded; it's indeed a good place. I'll go back if I have the chance."

No need for large-scale construction; a simple and secluded place is the best resting place for these children.

Unfortunately, some people may not even be able to find their remains.

"Don't just talk the talk," Krelay said, seemingly trying to lighten the somewhat heavy atmosphere. "Peru, you've been by Father's side all this time, you must have experienced a lot of interesting things, right? Tell me about them."

"Is it something interesting?" Pellervy's eyes showed a hint of hesitation. "Hmm... let me think about where to start."
