Being Lured Home by Elysia... / It's Just the Elf Miss's Face, That's All!

Ling Xi also snorted angrily. Well, what can I say about the Doctor's personality... He's good at admitting his mistakes, but he never learns from them. If I could, I'd make sure he never leaves this world!

"Hehe, you idiot..."

Mobius just smiled, then leaned his head closer, his nose touching Ling Xi's, and laughed, "Okay, stop fooling around. I'll write my paper now, and play with you tonight."

"Then I want to give you a kiss."

Ling Xi certainly couldn't really disturb Mobius from doing his business, but a kiss would be acceptable, right?

"Seriously, are you a child?"

Although Mobius complained, his body language betrayed him, and he gently kissed Ling Xi.

Chapter 110: Kidnapped by Elysia and taken home...

In the lab, Ling Xi was still holding Mobius, while Mobius was diligently revising his paper, occasionally turning back to ask for Ling Xi's feedback. In short, the two spent a very happy afternoon together, until...

"Dudu!"

The lab door suddenly opened, and Klein walked in. "Doctor, about the other two labs... huh?"

Then, Klein felt as if he had seen something he shouldn't have...

Ling Xi sat in Mobius's chair, while Mobius sat on his lap, not resisting at all while being held by Ling Xi, and the Doctor even seemed to be snuggling close to Ling Xi...

Klein: "..." How many times has this happened?

However, Doctor is Doctor after all. What hasn't Mobius seen in his life?

"Cough cough!"

After a light cough, Mobius silently got off Ling Xi's lap and stood up, then calmly asked, "How did things go, Klein?"

As long as I don't feel embarrassed, nothing will happen.

Besides, I'm going to get my marriage certificate with Ling Xi in a few days anyway, so it doesn't matter if Klein finds out about this.

"Forehead..."

Klein shook his head, came back to his senses, and said, "Given the resources provided by the Doctor, both experimental groups agreed to go to the Mu Continent, but the remaining individual experimental groups, a total of seven people, refused."

"Seven people... never mind them."

Having already offered such good terms, and still receiving rejections, Mobius was too lazy to try and persuade them any further.

So Mobius smiled at Klein and said, "Well done, Klein. Go and make the arrangements again. Rent a few more transport planes and send the equipment to the Mu Continent one by one. As for the personnel..."

"Hmm... If anyone wants to go ahead, let them go first. I've already applied to headquarters for a temporary laboratory."

With the Honkai potentially erupting at any moment, Mobius's natural thought was to set off as soon as possible.

"Okay, Doctor, I'll arrange it right away."

Klein nodded silently and walked out of the room. As for what he had just seen... hmm? Had he seen anything?

Hmm, it seems like there's nothing there.

In the afternoon, Ling Xi moved her things over and officially moved into the lab, although she probably wouldn't be staying there for long.

Klein also helped arrange accommodation for Sakura and her sister Rin, as there were still quite a few rooms available at the research institute.

"Sakura, this is your room."

That evening, Ling Xi escorted the two sisters in pink to their room and said with a smile, "It's not the best place, but it'll have to do for now. We're only staying for a short time anyway. Once you've recovered from your injuries in a few days, we'll head to the Mu Continent."

"It's alright, this is already very good."

Sakura glanced at the room in front of her. It was a two-bedroom apartment on the third floor, and the supermarket and cafeteria were less than 100 meters away, which was very convenient.

"Uh-huh."

Ling nodded and smiled, "Ling Xi, for giving us a ride."

"You're welcome, Xiaoling."

Ling Xi smiled at Ling, then gently touched Ling's hair. It felt so nice.

"Mmm..."

Rin looked quite pleased with herself, as if... being patted on the head truly brought her joy.

"Alright, Sakura, you should get some rest too."

After giving Ling a good pat on the head, Ling Xi smiled at Ying and said, "If you need anything, just send me a message. But you guys better not wander around the research institute at night, there are some dangerous things in there."

"Okay, I understand, thank you."

Sakura nodded slightly, seemingly understanding. After all, this was the most advanced research lab in the Far East. Putting aside whether the things inside were dangerous or not, the price alone made Sakura dare not touch them. Who could afford to pay for equipment that cost hundreds of millions?

Goodnight.

"Okay, goodnight."

"Ling Xi, don't forget to come visit me tomorrow!"

"Ugh... I'm so tired!"

After sending the two sisters back, Ling Xi prepared to go home and rest, as she was truly exhausted today.

I was woken up early by the Doctor, then went to answer the bell in the morning, spent the noon with Seele, and spent the afternoon with the Doctor in the lab writing a paper, and also did some posting. In short, I'm so tired.

"Mmm..."

Suddenly, Ling Xi seemed to hear a familiar voice, and then immediately felt someone approaching from behind...

"Guess who I am... eh?"

Ling Xi bent down, then turned around and grabbed the outstretched hand, finally pushing her against the wall and laughing irritably, "Elysia, it's always the same trick, don't you get tired of it?"

"Hehe, just trying to crack a joke?"

Pressed against the wall by Ling Xi, Elysia was not unhappy at all and laughed, "Speaking of which, did you just pin me against the wall? Hmm... You're really bold. You already have Mobius, yet you still try to seduce me."

"Uh... cough cough."

Ling Xi quickly released Elysia's hand and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Mobius and I are just superior and subordinate. She just takes better care of me."

"Hmph, do you think I'd believe that?"

However, Elysia had already seen through everything, especially yesterday at lunch, when Mobius looked at this guy with the eyes of a lover.

In my memory, Mobius was someone who cared about nothing but research, but... ever since Ling Xi appeared, the change in Mobius has been visibly obvious, okay? So...

To say that there's nothing fishy going on between these two would be a lie.

"No means no."

Ling Xi decisively denied it, determined to deny it to the death.

"Yeah..."

Elysia suddenly leaned closer, sniffing Ling Xi's scent, and laughed, "Wow, this is... a very strong scent. Did you hold Mobius all afternoon? Otherwise, why would her scent be so strong?"

Ling Xi: "??? Holy crap, are you... are all Flame-Chasing Moths monsters?"

"Cough cough."

Ling Xi coughed lightly, intending to keep her distance from Elysia, and said, "Well, it's getting late, I need to go back and rest. Goodbye, Elysia."

After saying that, Ling Xi decisively turned and ran away...

"Don't leave."

However, Elysia pounced on Ling Xi from behind and said gently with a smile, "Okay, okay, I'm not kidding anymore. I have something important to tell you."

"Is this serious business?"

Ling Xi turned around and looked at Elysia speechlessly. Why didn't such a cute girl come up to him in his previous life?

"Mmm..."

Elysia seemed to think for a moment, and finally smiled and said, "It's not convenient to talk about this here. You should... come home with me first."

Ling Xi "..."

Chapter 111: It's just the fairy's face!

"I'm not going..."

When faced with Elysia's invitation, Ling Xi refused without hesitation. Of course, after returning with Elysia last time, the Doctor checked up on her the next day. At the time, she didn't realize the seriousness of the problem, but she could tell that the Doctor was a little angry.

Moreover, back then, I wasn't even with the Doctor yet, and as a result, Mobius was quite angry. And now...

Since she was already with Mobius, if she went back with Elysia now, Mobius would immediately turn her into a real lab rat if he found out.

"You have to go, whether you like it or not."

However, Elysia was not intimidated at all. She hugged Ling Xi's neck and leaned her head in, saying with a mischievous smile, "You know what? Mobius... her nose is incredibly sensitive, and you're already covered in my scent. Do you think... if you go back like this, she'll be angry?"

Ling Xi "..."

"Elysia, you..."

Ling Xi then realized what was happening and hurriedly tried to shake off Elysia.

"Hmph, too late."

Elysia grinned mischievously, winking one eye, and said wickedly, "Now you only have two choices. First, go straight back and explain to Mobius why you smell like me. Second..."

"You can use my bathroom. I also have a washing machine and some air freshener, which should be able to get rid of the smell."

Ling Xi "..."

"Elysia, you..."

Ling Xi pointed directly at Elysia. To be honest, Ling Xi really wanted to tie Elysia up and make her activate the "bitter flesh" skill while reciting the "bitter flesh" lines. This fairy lady really knows how to play.

"Hey-hey..."

However, Elysia directly grasped Ling Xi's hand, then gently pulled it forward, while tilting her face slightly upwards, and so...

Ling Xi: "???"

In an instant, Ling Xi discovered that her lips had actually... kissed Elysia's face?

It smells so good... wait... something's not right!

"You..."

After realizing what had happened, Ling Xi quickly retreated, moving away from Elysia, but it seemed too late, after all... what had already happened.

"Wow, Ling Xi is really bold..."

Elysia, looking shy, shrank back slightly and said bashfully, "This is the first time in my life that a man has ever kissed me on the cheek, but..."

Elysia grinned mischievously, "Now you have one more question to explain."

Ling Xi "..."

"Elysia, you tricked me?"

Ling Xi was immediately a little angry. Although... although kissing the fairy's face was a huge win for him, the problem was... how the hell was he going to explain this to Mobius?

"How could that be? You were the one who initiated it."

Elysia spread her hands helplessly and pointed to her face, "Oh, it's tingling and numb, do you still want to deny it?"

"That... that's because you pulled me."

Ling Xi realized that she was completely outmatched by this fairy lady. No wonder her Doctor kept warning her to stay away from Elysia. It seemed that the Doctor was not lying to her after all.

"That's all because you refused to come home with me. If you had behaved, I wouldn't have had to struggle with you. And then this unexpected thing happened..."

Elysia still helplessly spread her hands and laughed, "Now, you still have two choices. I'll go and tell Mobius that someone likes me and actually kissed me when he wasn't looking, or... you come home with me obediently, and I promise I won't mention this to any third party."

"Hmph, you have no evidence. I'll explain it to the Doctor."

Faced with Elysia's scheme, Ling Xi decisively chose... not to admit it. At worst, she could go back and explain to the Doctor. She and the Doctor had such a good relationship now, and the Doctor knew Mobius very well. So, if she explained it properly, the Doctor would most likely believe her.

After all, she's his wife. A little more trust and a little less manipulation would be much better.
