"...Cyrene, did you hear all of that?"
"Yes, all of it..."
Cyrene's face flushed slightly.
"Your... and Miss Yueyu's cries... I heard them all."
Cyrene's gaze wandered. Clearly, this sort of thing was still quite shocking to her.
...This kind of reaction was rare in the house.
But...
The last person to have such an unusual reaction had been Guinaifen.
"...I still haven't given Guinaifen her Light Cone."
Hearing that, Cyrene counted on her fingers.
Which number girl was this that Liu Bai had mentioned?
"I'm telling you, Cyrene, if you want to learn, you can read romance novels. You don't need to come learn this directly..."

"Hello! You're the new big sister everyone's been talking about, right?"
When the other girl saw Cyrene looking at her, she immediately became even livelier. "My name is March 7th! What's yours?"
"My name is Cyrene."
Cyrene leaped down, landing lightly on the ground.
"Hello~"
"Why were you sitting on a streetlamp?"
March 7th was very curious.
"Because streetlamps are high up? And the view is better~?"
Cyrene touched her chin and answered in a tone that suggested even she wasn't sure.
"And being up high doesn't make you feel lonely."
"...That sounds like there's quite a story behind it?"
"Mm... There was a little story, I suppose~ Though
