Sakura, Waaah, Waaah, Waaaah!

"Sakura? What's wrong with you...?"

Ling Xi forcefully suppressed the urge to hug Ying and kiss her.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know..."

Sakura shook her head slightly, "I... I think... I've already fallen for you."

Ling Xi: "..." Me too...

After all, with Yae Sakura's blessing, he already had feelings for Sakura. In addition, they had been living together for several months. Although they hadn't talked about it actively, liking someone didn't have to be so complicated.

However, because of Mobius, Seele, and Elysia, he had never had any contact with Sakura that went beyond friendship. But now... in this very instant, he felt an unprecedented flutter in his heart. Sakura...

"Ling Xi ..."

Sakura silently looked at Ling Xi, then gently raised her head and closed her eyes. Ling Xi had experienced this posture and attitude from at least three other people; it was clearly...

"Ugh..."

Before Ling Xi could even think it through, her body had already involuntarily moved towards Ying and kissed her. Everything seemed so natural and familiar.

Of course, the familiarity mentioned here only refers to Ling Xi; Ying, on the other hand, is very inexperienced and seems to be completely clueless...

So Ling Xi knew she'd hit the jackpot; Sakura... was obviously also kissing for the first time.

Afterwards, Ling Xi's hands were not idle either. She began to explore the familiar yet unfamiliar places. They were familiar because she had explored Elysia and the Doctor countless times, but unfamiliar because... this was Sakura's first time.

Faced with Ling Xi's unilateral action, Ying didn't know how to respond, but she didn't refuse either. Instead, she moved closer to Ling Xi to make it easier for Ling Xi to act...

"Cherry..."

Five minutes later, when their lips parted, little pink hearts seemed to appear in Sakura's eyes, and Ling Xi also noticed the change in Sakura's expression.

"Ling Xi, I... want..."

Sakura looked at Ling Xi with expectant eyes. Originally, she might have been able to hold back, but... after the kiss just now, she realized that kissing was such a comfortable and satisfying thing. It was just like that...

Ling Xi spends every day with Elysia and the others, and she... doesn't want to wait any longer.

Ling Xi: "..." Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap, this isn't right. Sakura doesn't feel like Sakura at all. After all, Sakura isn't set up like this.

While Elysia and Mobius's personalities may change or even break down under certain circumstances, that's only at crucial moments. But Sakura... she's already like this after just one kiss?

Also, I don't think what I'm doing counts as taking advantage of someone in a vulnerable state, right? But...

He already has a wife, a girlfriend, and even a young man; if he were to add Sakura to the mix, then...

"Ling Xi, it seems she's been affected by some kind of drug..."

Just as Ling Xi was pondering whether to continue, Sirin suddenly blurted out, "Although she is mentally sound now, it seems that she really likes you, which is why she told the truth under the influence of the drugs."

"Sirin?"

Ling Xi was somewhat surprised to see Sirin appear. Why was this girl not staying in the consciousness space? What was she doing outside?

"Then... is there a solution?"

Ling Xi was initially somewhat tempted, but upon hearing that Ying seemed to have been tricked, Ling Xi felt that this was somewhat like taking advantage of someone in distress!

"No, that's just how it's set up."

Sirin smiled slightly and said, "Besides, Sakura really likes you, and... ask yourself honestly, don't you like her too?"

"I..."

Ling Xi wanted to refute, but she was somewhat powerless to do so, because... Sirin was right, didn't she like Sakura?

Nonsense, how could that be?

"Ahem, here comes the mission!"

At this moment, Sirin casually selected the task options she had given to Ling Xi.

[A: True warriors never back down; they simply mount their horses and take down Sakura! Mission reward: Supply Card *10!]

Ling Xi: "..." Holy crap? There's only one option? What about B? What about C?

However, according to Sirin's explanation last time, mission options are just options, but they are still missions, so... you can choose not to do them!

And now...

Am I the kind of person who would sell my soul for ten supply cards?

Of course not...

[B: True warriors never back down; they simply mount their horses, spears in hand, and take down Sakura! Mission reward: Supply Cards *20!]

Ling Xi: "???"

Holy crap, twenty supply cards? What the hell... If we don't count the Prime Doctor's achievement reward, isn't this already more than all the supply cards I got from Sirin?

However, a mere twenty supply cards were still not enough to make him sell his soul, after all, he was going to become the sea...

[C: True warriors never back down; they simply mount their horses, spears in hand, and take down Sakura! Mission reward: Supply Card *50!]

Ling Xi "..."

Sirin's words make a lot of sense. Although Sakura might be under the influence of the drugs, he likes her, and she likes him too. But in this situation... sigh...

Of course, I'm not the kind of person who would sell my soul for a mere fifty cards. The main reason is that I... really like Sakura!

Chapter 270: Sakura, sob sob sob!

"Cherry..."

In the end, Ling Xi made her choice and picked up Ying, but...

When Ling Xi was about to go back to her room, she hesitated for a moment. After all, Elysia was on her left and Mobius was on her right, and the villa that the Doctor bought was a shoddy construction with poor soundproofing.

So, Ling Xi carried Ying to the guest rooms on the other side of the villa. This place was usually cleaned so that guests could check in immediately, but now...

Just what I needed.

The subsequent plot is self-evident: the two, who already had feelings for each other, were further amplified by the assistance of Mobius and Klein, the side effects of Ling Xi fusing with Sasha Gene, and...

Sirin gave so much!

That night, Ling Xi first met Ying, then rode Ying, and finally played a first-person shooter game with Ying!

To Ling Feng's great surprise, although Sakura was also awakening for the first time, her combat power was undeniably strong. Even Elysia wasn't this brave on her first attempt. Perhaps... this is the true value of Poisoned Pupae S-rank member!

And after tonight, Sakura's value will only increase... well, it will only get higher and higher!

"Haaaaaah..."

The next day, Seele woke up very early as usual. After washing her face and brushing her teeth, she quietly went to the living room to prepare for breakfast.

"Seele?"

In the living room, Mobius happened to be there too. He was quite surprised when he saw Seele. "No way, is this girl really that brave?" he thought. "You know, I didn't even get out of bed the next day."

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

Seele yawned as she looked at Mobius with curiosity.

"Hey... how did you sleep last night?"

Mobius wanted to ask about Seele and Ling Xi's situation.

"That's great."

Seele smiled slightly and said, "I went to bed at ten o'clock and have been sleeping until now. Why did you suddenly ask this, Doctor?"

Mobius "..."

What's going on here?

Could it be that the medicine was diluted too much, which is why it's not working?

Or perhaps Seele had eaten quite a lot of it before, and thus developed antibodies? Hmm... okay, that's probably unlikely!

"Um, Seele, did you feel unwell last night? And... did you drink your milk tea?"

To determine if the drug had been diluted too much, Mobius continued to probe Seele indirectly.

No?

Seele, still with that innocent look on her face, said, "The milk tea that the Doctor made was warm. I drank it after Klein brought it over, and then I went to sleep."

Mobius: "..." So what exactly is going on here?

"Wow, Seele?"

At this moment, Elysia also came out of the room and was startled when she saw Seele. What the heck? Is Seele so brave?

After I was captured, I did get up very early, but that was to erase the traces. Besides... I'm not an ordinary person, so that incident didn't really have a big impact on me. But Seele...

This girl seems like just an ordinary girl, right? How come...

In short, Elysia was also a little confused for a moment. She glanced at Mobius, who shook Mobius head slightly, indicating that he didn't know either.

"By the way... what about breakfast?"

Putting Seele aside, Elysia was also feeling a bit hungry. Normally, Sakura would prepare breakfast; either she'd make it herself or buy it and leave it on the living room table for her to help herself to. But today...

This table is cleaner than a face.

"Isn't Sakura usually the one who prepares these? Why are you asking me?"

Mobius shrugged and said, "However, preparing breakfast was just Sakura's kindness, not her obligation. Perhaps she wasn't feeling well this morning, so she hasn't gotten up yet."

"No way, that girl is an S-class member, her physique is incredibly good."

Elysia found it a bit unbelievable.

"It is a bit strange..."

Suddenly, Klein came up from downstairs and said, "I just went down to the kitchen and found that the ingredients Sakura bought last night are still unopened in the refrigerator. It seems that she really didn't prepare breakfast this morning."

"Then I'll do it."

Seeing that there was really no breakfast, Seele volunteered to make it.

"No need, Seele, it might be too late to make it now. Let's just eat out..."

Mobius stretched and said, "Klein, let's go. After we finish eating, let's go straight to the lab."

"Doctor, shouldn't we call them both?"

Klein reminded Mobius not to forget those two scoundrels.

"They'll know they're here when they wake up. If they get to eat it... well, we'll just deduct their wages, or they can just eat pickled vegetables."

Mobius didn't bother to go and wake the two of them, after all... Cangxuan might get up, but Danzhu was definitely still asleep!

"Wait for me, I want to go too."

Elysia quickly followed, and at the same time, she asked Seele, "Seele, shall we go together?"

"No..."

Seele shook her head and smiled, "I'd better go prepare breakfast. Ling Xi will need it when she wakes up later."

"Heh, that guy is really lucky..."

Elysia couldn't help but mutter, "Of course! Now we have Mobius, then Seele, and now I'm here too... and the key thing is..."

The fact that we got along so well with each other is quite surprising, so can't we call that lucky?

"Agreed..."

Mobius nodded silently. Since the Honkai Changkong City, Ling Xi and Seele's relationship... should be second only to his own, or even on par with his. The only difference now is...

Ling Xi still couldn't win over Seele.

Okay, I still want to ask, what exactly is going on? Did Seele not drink milk tea last night?

"Klein..."

After leading Elysia and Klein out of the villa, Mobius began to question Klein, "Did you forget anyone when we had milk tea last night?"

"Doctor, you know me."

Clay spread his hands slightly and said, "As long as it's a task you assign me, Doctor, even if it's deliberately difficult, I will do my best to complete it. And how could I possibly forget anyone when it came to delivering milk tea last night?"
