About to Make It Official / Mobius, I Love You

Theresa nodded and exchanged a smile with Kallen.

"I..."

Yaqing was about to refuse.

"This is the first time Theresa has invited you to dinner, you can't refuse!"

"Okay, I'll go." Faced with Kallen, the elder he had known since childhood, Yaqing couldn't find any room to refuse.

"Alright then, remember to bring your little girlfriend along. Little Theresa is very curious too." Kallen revealed her true intentions.

"What? Hello? Hello? Hello!"

Without waiting for Yaqing's reply, Kallen hung up the phone and gave Theresa a high five.

"Little Theresa, I've done what I promised you, you promised me..."

Theresa looked somewhat embarrassed.

"Alright, Grandma Kallen, you can stay in the dormitory area tonight."

"Great! It's been so long since I've cuddled up to sleep in the sweet and soft Theresa!"

"Don't shout so loudly!!!"

Chapter 121 Relationship About to Be Confirmed

"What happened?"

It was rare to see Yaqing so flustered. Elysia was Kallen had said to him.

"Aunt Kallen asked me to have dinner with her tonight," Yaqing said blankly.

"Isn't that great?" Pardo was puzzled. Wouldn't it be awesome if Fei was invited to dinner? If someone invited her to dinner, she would definitely go over happily.

"The problem is, Aunt Kallen wants me to bring Mobius along, and Theresa already knows, so the performance probably won't last long."

"Then..." Elysia pulled Yaqing's shoulder, her teasing smile vanished, replaced by a serious look in her eyes, "What kind of feelings do you have for Mobius?"

"I don't know." Yaqing shook her head.

"Yaqing, you're not unaware, you're just avoiding it," Elysia pointed out Yaqing's flawed thinking.

"...You're right." Yaqing didn't refute Elysia, perhaps because he himself thought Elysia was right.

Yaqing had already been running away ten years ago. His sudden departure seven years ago was ostensibly due to President Otto transferring him back, but in reality it was because he didn't know how to face this relationship.

"I've never thought about having a lover, nor do I want anyone to love me." Yaqing said softly, "My life is about fulfilling my dreams, resigning from all my positions, and traveling the world alone."

"But Yaqing, everyone can see how Sister Snake feels about you. Even if you don't accept her, you should at least give Sister Snake an answer, right?" Pardo indignantly on behalf of Mobius.

"Phew, I know, I'll go and give her an answer." Yaqing took a deep breath.

Pardo was stunned.

"Wait, Yaqing, you said you don't want others to come to you, but do you even know what love is?" Elysia stopped Yaqing.

There are many kinds of love.

"Like me, I love each and every one of you, but is this love the same as Kevin's love for May?"

Elysia's eyes were bright, like a constellation of stars.

Under her radiance, Yaqing felt uneasy.

When the phone rang, Yaqing felt like a drowning person grasping at the last straw.

He got up and left.

"Sister Elysia, Yaqing..." Pardo swallowed the words back, unsure of what to say.

After leaving the Golden Courtyard, Yaqing sat alone in his car, looking at the contact on his phone screen: Welt Yang. He had never felt so grateful to Welt as he did now.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Welt."

"What are you planning to do now?" Every time Welt spoke with Yaqing on the phone, he had to be on high alert.

"Mr. Welt, I can tell from your tone that you have some misunderstandings about me." Yaqing smiled. "I'm calling you today mainly to discuss with you the spin-off web series 'Anti-Entropy: Origin' from the Honkai IP series."

"Hmm?" Welt Young became interested. "Tell me more about it."

"It's too much trouble to explain, Mr. Welt. Do you really need me to tell you about the nearly 20 episodes of the web series over the phone?" Yaqing said playfully.

"Then send me the script," Welt Young said. "I'll finish reading it tonight, and if there are no problems, I'll give you an answer tomorrow. Okay, I have to go now, I have class to teach."

Welt hung up the phone.

Yaqing stared at Welt, who had hurriedly hung up the phone, somewhat bewildered. He couldn't understand Welt's actions. As the vice president of Anti-Entropy, he had actually gone to work as a history teacher at a girls' school owned by a rival company.

Fortunately, Yaqing knew Welt's character to some extent, otherwise he would have definitely thought that Welt had no good intentions.

"Oh."

Yaqing smiled.

He immediately remembered the dinner party that evening, and his smile vanished instantly.

As Yaqing drove towards World Serpent Company, Elysia's words kept echoing in his mind. He almost had a car accident, but luckily the car swerved to avoid it, saving Yaqing from a collision.

We arrived at the World Serpent Company building.

Having been there before, Yaqing entered easily, took the elevator to the top floor, and stood outside Mobius's office, feeling conflicted, without immediately pushing the door open.

"Yaqing? What brings you here? Wait a minute..." Mei saw Yaqing in the corridor and asked in confusion.

"It's nothing." Yaqing pushed open the door and went in, only to find the office empty.

"I told you to wait, but Mobius isn't in her office; she's in the lab." Mei leaned against the wall, looking helpless.

"Okay." Yaqing shrugged.

"Shouldn't you be watching cartoons in the Golden Courtyard at this time? Why did you suddenly come to World Serpent?" Mei asked curiously.

"What are you saying? What are you saying?" Yaqing said discontentedly, "I usually work very hard, but that's what you can't see."

"Hehe." Mei asked, "Do you need me to take you there?"

"No need, I've been to the lab."

"Alright, alright." Mei asked curiously, "What brings you to see Mobius? Can you tell me?"

"It's nothing, I just invited her to dinner tonight."

Mei stared wide-eyed at Yaqing in disbelief, even suspecting that someone had drugged him and how he had suddenly become enlightened.

"Have you figured it out?"

"No." Yaqing said as she walked side by side with Mei, "I once told Kevin that I envied him, and I still want to say that I envy him now."

"Come on, you two have been envious of each other since college, haven't you?" Mei covered her mouth and laughed. "Kevin once told me that he envied you too."

"Envious of me? When did he go blind?"

"Hello."

"My fault, my fault, when did he become Su?"

"Does Su know you said that?"

"I know, or I don't know."

They arrived outside the laboratory while chatting and laughing.

Yaqing pushed open the door and went in.

"Hey buddy, you're here again?!" Danzhu, who was slacking off, said.

"Um."

Yaqing looked at the focused and serious Mobius, her eyes momentarily dazed, as if she had returned to her campus life ten years ago.

"Why are you here?" Mobius asked, unfastening his surgical gloves.

Are you free tonight?

"Huh?" Mobius looked incredulous.

Under the amused gazes of Cang Xuan and Danzhu, Yaqing took Mobius away, preparing to return to the Golden Courtyard first. He couldn't attend the dinner party wearing a white coat, so Mobius wanted to go back to change his clothes and take a shower.

When Yaqing returned to the Golden Courtyard.

Mobius was taking a bath upstairs.

He and Elysia sat on the sofa.

"I will respond to Mobius by tonight at the latest."

"Are you really sure?"

"Um."

It's time for Elysia's live stream.

Mobius also came downstairs at this time.

Yaqing could clearly smell a faint fragrance.

Chapter 122 Mobius, I Like You

As the sun set, the luxury car came to a steady stop in front of the family restaurant. Theresa had chosen a Western-style restaurant with an elegant decor, white walls, and the elegant women. Yaqing watched Theresa and Kallen wave to her.

"Wait a moment."

Upon hearing Mobius's voice, Yaqing instinctively stopped in her tracks.

Mobius took Yaqing's arm.

"Idiot, are you still the same as before? Are you going to not even help your girlfriend up when she wears high heels in the future?" Mobius said in a low voice.

Looking at the serious-looking Mobius, Yaqing felt complicated, her mind constantly replaying their first meeting during their university days.

"Senior, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, the heel of my high heel just broke."

Theresa looked at Mobius, who was arm in arm with Yaqing, with surprise. She hadn't expected that Yaqing's girlfriend would be this person, since the two of them seemed to have no connection.

Theresa suddenly remembered that Yaqing had once told her about her roommate.

"I didn't realize you were so capable, Yaqing." Theresa wagged her finger.

"Theresa, why do I hear a hint of teasing in your tone?" Yaqing reached out to ruffle Theresa's hair.

Theresa, enraged, slapped away Yaqing's outstretched hand, her teeth grinding together.

"Cough cough." Kallen coughed a few times.

"Alright, let's go inside first."

Kallen La over Theresa.

"Grandma, look at him!" Theresa pointed at Yaqing.

Yaqing looked helpless.

"I told you, little Theresa, don't call me grandma outside, call me sister, remember?" Kallen tugged at the soft flesh on Theresa's cheek.

"Milk... Jiejie, I made a mistake..." Theresa said incoherently.

Mobius smiled knowingly.

Yaqing glanced at it; the smile was undeniably gentle, yet he felt something was off.

The four entered the restaurant and sat facing each other. Yaqing and Mobius sat in a row, while Theresa and Kallen sat opposite them.

"I didn't know what you wanted to eat, so I ordered a few medium-rare steaks." Kallen scratched her head.

"It's alright, this restaurant is most famous for its steak." Mobius said gently.
