If I Said I Went to Learn Music from Eden, Would You Believe Me? / The Doctor Seems to Complain, Too...

"Forehead..."

Mei hesitated for a moment, then said, "Although I don't think I should say anything, but... this morning I saw Ling Xi seemingly coming out of Eden's room..."

Mobius: "???"

Chapter 455: Would you believe me if I said I went to Eden to learn music?

"Eden?"

While Mobius had some doubts about May's words, she didn't immediately refute them. She knew May quite well; the girl wouldn't be so bored as to use such a lie to amuse her. Besides...

As for Ling Xi, I know his character very well...

However, Mobius couldn't understand how that guy got involved with Eden.

While it's not particularly strange that these two people would be together given their status, when did they start dating?

"Mei, could you tell me more about it?"

So Mobius decided to ask Mebius again.

"Ugh..."

Seeing that Mobius's expression was a little strange, Mei thought for a moment and said in a low voice, "It was around seven o'clock this morning. After I got up, I was going to go to the restaurant to get something to eat. Then I saw Ling Xi's people coming out of Eden's room, putting on their coats as they came out."

"After that, we met again at the restaurant, said hello, and then he bought some breakfast and went back. Oh, and he asked for three sets of cutlery!"

"Serves three?"

Mobius grew increasingly conflicted as he listened. Although Ling Xi was male, he didn't actually eat much, so he usually ate a single-serving breakfast. However...

If it were just Ling Xi and Eden, then buying enough for two would be fine, but...

What the heck is a three-person serving? She didn't believe Eden would eat that much.

So... there's only one truth, and it's not just about Eden and Ling Xi, but about someone else. As for who that other person is...

Is there even a need to guess? Who else could it be but that vixen Elysia?

After all, Elysia and Eden already had a good relationship, so...

I reckon that girl played a significant role in Ling Xi getting together with Eden...

"Why..."

In the end, Mobius shook his head helplessly and said, "Forget it, I can't be bothered with him. Let's continue discussing the Twelfth Herrscher."

"Okay!"

Seeing Mobius's reaction, Mebius was somewhat surprised, but since it was a family matter, she decided not to pry...

As for Mobius, was she angry? Hmm... perhaps a little. After all, Ling Xi was her legally married husband, and yet...

Seele herself didn't say much, Elysia's situation was somewhat understandable, Sakura's situation... was her own fault, and as for Klein, she had helped him out, so...

Does that guy still think he can't eliminate the side effects of Shesha?

However, Mobius ultimately remained silent. Was he going to confront Ling Xi directly and expose the matter publicly? Of course not, how could he?

Besides, in this apocalyptic atmosphere, Eden might need a way to release stress. After all, even though Eden is an ordinary person and Fused Warrior, she is still human!

So, in the end, Mobius just stopped caring. After all, he wasn't exactly a traditional person, and besides...

Looking at my hair, I'm already used to it!

Although Mobius didn't intend to make things difficult for Ling Xi with this matter, Mobius still planned to talk to Ling Xi when he returned that evening, and... coincidentally, Eden was also there.

"Huh? Doctor?"

Inside the room, Ling Xi was chatting with Eden, Seele, and Elysia, among others. Sakura and Rin were also there. Then, they suddenly noticed that Mobius had returned.

"Ling Xi ..."

Mobius glanced at Ling Xi and said, "Come with me, I have something to tell you..."

"Oh..."

Ling Xi didn't suspect anything and said to everyone, "You guys talk first..."

After saying that, Ling Xi followed Mobius away and was then led to her room by Mobius...

"Doctor, is there something you need?"

At this moment, Ling Xi was clearly unaware that her secrets had already been exposed, and thought that Mobius was looking for her because of the Honkai!

"When did you get involved with Eden?"

Mobius didn't even bother with formalities and went straight to the point!

"Huh?"

Ling Xi was taken aback and asked in a low voice, "Um, Doctor... what are you talking about?"

"Hehe!"

Mobius just smiled and said, "This morning, someone saw you coming out of Eden's room and even bought breakfast for three people. What, are you going to deny that?"

Ling Xi "..."

No way? There was no one around when I went out this morning. And when I went to the restaurant, the only acquaintance I ran into was Doctor Mobius, but Mei... she's obviously not the kind of person who likes to gossip, right?

"Um, Doctor, if I said I was looking for someone to learn a foreign language... oops, I mean, music, would you believe me?"

Ling Xi thought she should give it one last try.

Do you think I believe that?

Mobius just rolled his eyes at Ling Xi. Study music? Come on, with your musical talent, Eden can at most earn money by singing, but you'd be risking your life.

Ling Xi "..."

"Okay, Doctor, I..."

In the end, Ling Xi chose to give up. There was no other way; how could she hide it anymore?

"Alright, I didn't mean to blame you."

Seeing that Ling Xi was no longer resisting, Mobius didn't blame Ling Xi. He smiled and said, "After all, I can understand the current situation. Eden... she must be under a lot of psychological pressure, but..."

Mobius said with some helplessness, "You'd better take this matter seriously, because if it becomes public, it could cause some trouble."

"Huh? Doctor, you..."

Hearing Mobius's words, Ling Xi was somewhat surprised, because judging from her Doctor's tone, it seemed that she didn't blame her.

Why are you looking at me?

Mobius scoffed, "Or do you want me to order you to leave Eden?"

"Hehe..."

Ling Xi scratched his head, unsure of what to say.

"Snort..."

Mobius rolled his eyes at Ling Xi and laughed, "Alright, I don't object to this. After all, I don't need to. Anyway, you can handle Eden's problem yourself. Finally... the Project Fireseed shouldn't be too long. Don't let her fall into this trap at a time like this."

"Uh... I understand."

Although Mobius's reaction surprised Ling Xi didn't say much in the end, only smiling and saying, "Thank you, Doctor, I..."

"What are you thanking me for? Don't I know you?"

Mobius smiled, then gently embraced Ling Xi and whispered, "I'm sorry, I really don't have much time right now, otherwise I would definitely come to keep you company."

"Doctor, you don't need to apologize. I'm the one who should apologize!"

Ling Xi shook her head, saying helplessly, "If I could acquire some knowledge, I might be able to help the Doctor, instead of being unable to contribute anything in research like this..."

"What nonsense are you talking about? I wouldn't have achieved what I have today without you."

Mobius gently poked Ling Xi's forehead and chuckled softly, "However, Ling Xi, perhaps... it won't be long before I need your help, and... I'm afraid only you can help with this."

Chapter 456: Even the Doctor seems to complain...

After chatting with Ling Xi for a while, Mobius went back to her laboratory. Even though it was almost evening, Mobius rarely went back to her own room to rest; she usually rested in the laboratory!

Regarding her Doctor's situation, Ling Xi wanted to offer advice, but considering humanity's current predicament, well...

Ling Xi ultimately remained silent. After all, he knew very well that with Mobius's personality, it would be pointless to try to persuade her, and it might even upset her!

Therefore, all Ling Xi could do was silently support her Doctor from behind!

"Oh dear, it seems I've caused you a little trouble after all."

That night, Ling Xi escorted Eden back to his room, and on the way, Eden clearly guessed something.

"No."

Ling Xi shook her head and smiled, "The Doctor didn't blame me for this, but... she hoped we could be more careful next time, after all, your identity is a bit special."

"Hehe, yeah..."

Eden smiled and couldn't help but say, "To be honest, this is the first time in my life that I've ever so disliked this identity."

"No, Eden, if you don't want it, I do!"

Ling Xi smiled with a hint of pride, "After all, it's quite an accomplishment to think that a former big star could become my wife."

Eden "..."

Eden simply rolled his eyes at Ling Xi, then stretched and said, "I must say, Dr. Mobius... is a very good wife. I didn't expect her to be so magnanimous. It seems that Elysia really understands everyone."

"Elysia ...heh, yes, after all, she is Elysia."

Ling Xi did not refute this, and she had already sensed it herself. Although she didn't know why, Elysia seemed to understand everyone around her very well!

Even the proud and aloof Seele, and the seemingly cold but actually warm-hearted Sakura, could get along very well with Elysia, and even...

Even though I was initially wary of Elysia because of Dr. Mobius's deception, I was eventually won over by Elysia. That's... Elysia's charm!

There are also some Fused Warrior within the Flame-Chasing Moths who have very poor relationships. Perhaps only Elysia can get them to sit down together and have a proper meal. Otherwise... want to eat? They'd be more like having a banquet!

The two lived not far apart, so Ling Xi quickly escorted Eden to her room...

"Mmm, I'm home..."

Standing at the door of the room, Eden looked at Ling Xi with a half-smile and said, "Ling Xi, that's enough for now. Thank you for escorting me."

"No need to thank me, taking my wife home is what I should do, isn't it?"

Ling Xi looked at Eden with a smile and deliberately asked, "By the way, Miss Eden, may I learn music with you tonight?"

Eden "..."

Eden gave Ling Xi a speechless look and laughed, "Then there's no need. I think... you should go and have a chat with Dr. Mobius tonight, after all..."

At this point, Eden sighed with some emotion, "Mobius may not be as calm inside as she appears on the surface. This is ultimately my fault, so... Ling Xi, please take good care of Mobius for me tonight."

"Um... why me?"

Ling Xi looked at Eden speechlessly. Since you say it's your fault, shouldn't you be the one to go?

"Hehe, because..."

Eden smiled slightly and said softly, "Mobius... hopes that you are the one who goes."

"Huh?"

Upon hearing Eden's answer, Ling Xi seemed to realize something. When Mobius had talked to her earlier, he had indeed seemed somewhat disappointed, but...

At the time, I thought Mobius was feeling down because of Eden, but now it seems...

Damn, I feel like I've become stupid lately...

"Yes, I understand. Thank you, Eden."

After thinking it through, Ling Xi sincerely thanked Eden. Thankfully, Eden reminded her; otherwise... she would have completely ignored Mobius tonight, since Mobius was busy with his research...

"Okay, go ahead, I'm sleepy, see you tomorrow..."
