The Initial Shape of a Shura Field

A cold wind is howling... No, there's no cold wind.

After staring resentfully at the ungentlemanly man in front of her for a moment, Mu Qiansè had to give up the idea that he would take off his clothes to keep her warm.

With schools closed, Dormitory empty, and supplies of food, clothing, water, and electricity cut off, she had no choice but to go out shopping to earn her wages.

A biting Cold Wave swept through, causing temperatures to plummet. Shivering all the way, I finally arrived at the Store, only to unexpectedly run into Old Friend, filling me with joy...

... What the hell?!

As Mu Qianse climbed the drafty stairwell to the seventh floor, looking at her ex-boyfriend walking briskly in front of her, she felt completely frozen Mu Qiansè thought she must have lost her mind.

So why did I even come along?

While rubbing her arm, which was red from the cold and almost numb, Mu Qiansè unconsciously reflected on the problem again in her mind.

Aside from those missions, in real life, do you really have any close relationship with the other person?

Although he used to be her boyfriend, they had been officially dating for almost several weeks, yet they hadn't even held hands. Coupled with his constant requests for money since they became a couple, Mu Qiansè felt their relationship wasn't like that of a couple deeply in love. Instead, it felt more like a money collector and an ATM; he was responsible for taking money from her, while she, the ATM, was responsible for dispensing it...

It was precisely because she realized this that she thought of going to the Movie Theater together to nurture their relationship. A little financial loss was nothing to her; she longed for a Perfect and romantic love, and a boyfriend who was incredibly attentive and handsome... Well, there's no need to repeat the ending.

Love will fade away, leaving her only with a well-known dark history.

So, in reality, I don't really have much contact with him. I came to his house because of a fight... I think his current girlfriend is the Campus Belle, right?

Looking at Bai Zhi, who took out his Key and opened the door, Mu Qiansè, who had been thinking about too many things on the way, had a conflicted expression on her face.

If Lin Xiaoyi finds out about what happened today, there's a high chance she'll misunderstand, right? After all, going to someone's boyfriend's house in this freezing weather... Oh well, we were Teammate on the last mission, so I'll just have a cup of hot tea, borrow some warm clothes, and leave...!?

The Young Girl's expression suddenly froze as she watched the White-haired loli running joyfully into the room.

"Ahem... This is my younger sister, her name is Qingyi, Bai Qingyi."

In the living room, facing the rather strange look the Young Girl in front of him was giving him, Bai Zhi coughed a few times.

"Don't let her young age fool you, she's actually very capable. For example, she did all my advanced math homework for me."

Mu Qiansè: "..."

... Is this really something a human being could say???

Looking at the rather cute White-haired loli hiding behind Bai Zhi and staring at her warily, Mu Qiansè suddenly felt an urge to hug her.

Who could resist an adorable White-haired loli? Especially one with eyes as bright as Gem...

"I remember you shouldn't have a younger sister."

Mu Qiansè Bai Zhi in front of her.

You're mistaken.

Facing the Young Girl's rather certain gaze, Bai Zhi didn't blink and spoke without changing his expression.

"Bai Qingyi is indeed my sister. If you don't believe me, try having her call me 'Big Brother'."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Zhi felt a sharp pinch on his lower back.

"Yes, Bai Zhi is indeed my Big Brother."

The same seemingly Mu Qiansè gesture actually involved wrapping her arms around someone's neck from behind in a deadly chokehold-like manner. Meeting Mu Qianse's probing gaze, the Loli Qingyi, sensing a sense of crisis, nodded obediently.

"Auntie, are you my Big Brother's friend?"

Aunt...

Watching the close interaction between the two handsome siblings who looked like real brothers and sisters, and then suddenly hearing their hurtful way of addressing her, Mu Qiansè's eyes twitched.

"... Call me 'sister'."

"Um... Sister..."

Looking down at her cheap older Big Brother locked in her arms, the White-haired loli tilted her head slightly, thought for a moment, then nodded thoughtfully and answered in a very cooperative manner.

"Auntie, are you my sister's friend?"

Mu Qiansè: "???"

Bai Zhi: "..."

That's strange, why does it feel like Qingyi has some inexplicable hostility towards those Night Owl...? Also, Qingyi, if you don't loosen your grip on the book soon, I'm really going to be strangled to death right here and now...

As the saying goes, guests are always welcome. After all, this Night Owl was Teammate I favored during my last mission. Before figuring out how to get him onto my side, a proper, grand welcome is a must.

"Thank you for your hospitality."

After staring at the steaming bowl of instant noodles that Bai Zhi had placed in front of her for a moment, Mu Qianse looked up at the two "siblings" in front of her who were enjoying their noodles with relish, Mu Qiansè spoke without a word.

"It's just a bowl of instant noodles, there's no need to be polite."

With a rather generous wave of his hand, Bai Zhi, holding a fork, looked magnanimous.

"I can't speak for other things, but instant noodles, there's plenty!!!"

"So you really are... never mind, I'll cook."

Looking at the White-haired loli buried in instant noodle boxes in front of her, Mu Qiansè couldn't help but feel a little sorry for her eating such junk food every day. After all, she had personally witnessed someone who couldn't cook buying instant noodles not by the pack or the cup, but by the dozens of boxes at a time at the Store. It seemed like she was treating this stuff as her staple food... So, can you even finish all that instant noodles?

After letting out a slight sigh, she stood up from the Sofa.

Because the air conditioner was on in the living room, she had recovered from the near-freezing state she had been in before, but what followed was an uncontrollable feeling of hunger.

After all, she hasn't eaten anything since morning; if she's just been eating instant noodles...
