Sooner or Later, Someone Will Want to Be Miss Fairy's Dog! / Want to Buy a House? A Villa on Mu Continent!

Ling Xi subtly shook off Elysia, pulled her arm out of Ling's embrace, and then opened her arms to hug Seele with a smile, "Seele, it's been so long, I missed you so much."

"Snort..."

Then, Seele used Instant Step to dodge Ling Xi's embrace and snorted, "Miss me? I doubt it. Weren't you chatting happily with them? Besides, are we that close?"

Ling Xi speechless. Just a few hours ago she was so well-behaved and adorable, but now...

Well, it seems like life won't be boring from now on.

Chapter 149: Sooner or later, someone will want to be Miss Fairy's dog!

"The core of the Third Herrscher is indeed in Ling Xi's hands, and was handed over to Mobius this afternoon."

After Ling Xi woke up, the higher-ups of the Flame-Chasing Moths held a new meeting. Although the content of the meeting was not explicitly stated, everyone knew that it was about Ling Xi and Mobius, even though neither of them were present.

"The Herrscher Core should be the common property of humanity. Mobius... shouldn't have taken it for herself."

An elderly man seemed somewhat displeased with Mobius's behavior.

"That's right."

Another person said, "We should put pressure on Mobius to hand over the Herrscher Core, since it's a very important thing."

"Heh... You make it sound so easy, why don't you go try it yourself?"

A young man chuckled unhurriedly, "Go find Mobius and Ling Xi and ask her to hand over the Herrscher Core to you. See if they agree. Also... don't forget that some people planned an operation against Mobius and Ling Xi before. Instead of thinking about how to make amends, they're trying to force them."

Upon hearing this, several people's expressions immediately turned somewhat ugly, but none of them dared to say anything, because once they spoke, it would be solid evidence.

Moreover, the young man's words seemed very true: asking Mobius for the Herrscher Core was tantamount to targeting Ling Xi. Do you think Ling Xi would help his Doctor if he knew he was being targeted?

After all, according to reliable sources, Ling Xi sought out the Third Herrscher for a duel because of a little girl named Seele, so...

No one seems interested in trying it yet.

"I think we can try sending someone to contact Ling Xi."

"I think it's useless. You can take a look at this if you don't believe me."

As they spoke, a holographic image popped up in the center of the meeting room, displaying information about Ling Xi Mobius. In the spouse section, their names were written together!

"Ling Xi and Mobius officially got married about a week ago, so it's okay to win them over, but if you want to sow discord, I think you should forget about it. Don't let them settle old scores with you later."

"What about the Herrscher Core? The potential of the first two cores has been explored, and the first Herrscher Core has already begun to be applied to artificial intelligence. We need a third Herrscher Core now, since Mobius can't come up with anything new."

"Let's try to make contact with Ling Xi first. In short... at this stage, we should avoid any conflict with her, at least... until she is no longer an enemy. If this method doesn't work, then we can try to collaborate with Mobius on researching the Herrscher Core."

Although most of the higher-ups in the Flame-Chasing Moths have sadistic tendencies, they seem to be relatively normal in general, at least... for now!

Meanwhile, outside the research institute, Ling Xi finally managed to calm Seele down, and the five of them returned to the lab together. However, since this was a lab, their accommodations were temporary rooms, and then...

Elysia then pulled Ling Xi back to her room...

Of course, the other three also came along.

"Ugh, I'm so tired after shopping for two hours."

Back in the room, Elysia pulled Ling Xi to sit on the bed and said to the others with a smile, "Sit wherever you like, Ling Xi. Sit next to me. There are only two chairs in my room, and you can't possibly fight with a girl for one."

"Then I won't fight you for it."

Seele decisively sat down on the other side of Ling Xi, after all, hesitation would lead to defeat.

Cherry"..."

Bell"..."

"Is this Elysia's room?"

Ling Xi had already begun to look around Elysia's room. Well, compared to her room in Changkong City, this place was indeed a bit simple.

Is it very basic?

Seeing that Ling Xi seemed to be looking at her room, Elysia smiled helplessly and said, "There's nothing I can do. I left in a hurry and had to prioritize picking up passengers, so I left a lot of my luggage in the Far East. When I wanted to go back to get it later, I found that it was gone."

"It's okay, it's nothing particularly valuable, we can just buy a new one."

Ling Xi remembered that Elysia had a total of six suitcases, of which... five were clothes.

"Some clothes can be bought again, but..."

Elysia sighed softly and smiled, "The clothes you left with me are nowhere to be found. They were... proof of our first time, and you actually lost them."

"The... first time?"

Upon hearing this, Seele immediately bristled. What the hell? Could it be that Ling Xi and Elysia have already...?

I never expected that not only would I not get the first prize, but I wouldn't even get the runner-up prize?

"Don't talk nonsense."

Ling Xi's face darkened immediately, and she decisively explained to Seele, "Seele, you've spent so many days with this Elysia, don't you understand her personality? Just don't believe what she says. The first time she mentioned was actually... uh, the first time I went to her room!"

"I agree..."

Sakura nodded silently and smiled, "Miss Elysia is a nice person, but you can't believe everything she says."

"Huh? But I think Elysia is really nice."

Ling, however, looked completely innocent and said with a smile, "Sister Elysia doesn't let me do my homework and even buys me delicious food. She's a good person."

Ling Xi "..."

Sakura: "..." Is your IQ really that low for my own sister?

"Yes, yes, they are all slandering me."

Elysia happily pinched Rin's little face, feeling very happy. Adults are such a hassle, kids are so much easier to fool... cough cough, after all, they're sincere!

"Anyway, Seele, you can trust me."

Ling Xi decisively ignored Elysia and said to Seele in a serious tone, "There is absolutely no way anything could happen between Elysia and me. If... if I'm lying, then I'm a dog!"

"Snort..."

To this, Seele simply hummed softly, "I remember someone said the same thing last time..."

"Forehead..."

Ling Xi felt a little embarrassed, but she didn't think she had opened Seele's suitcase until the end. Although it was lost later, there was no time to evacuate, so there was no room for ordinary luggage. By the time she wanted to go back and get it after the battle, it had basically been destroyed or gone.

"Snort..."

Seele continued to hum softly, but it seemed that she had come to believe Ling Xi.

"Ugh..."

Elysia looked at Ling Xi thoughtfully. What he just said... Hmph, even though it was for your Seele, but...

I'll remember this grudge, and I'll go buy a collar and leash tomorrow, so that I won't be without the props when someone actually begs to be my dog.

But speaking of which, didn't Mobius say he wanted to buy a house? It should be happening in the next couple of days, and then...

Cough cough, as Mobius's best friend, borrowing a bedroom from her temporarily shouldn't be a problem, right? Besides, it's just a loan; once I get Yizhou... oops, once I buy a house, I'll definitely return it!

Chapter 150: Buying a house? A villa in the Mu Continent!

The next day...

"Hmm, you're up so early? I thought you'd sleep a little longer."

In the lab, Mobius seemed a little surprised to see Ling Xi, but he was also quite happy to see Ling Xi.

"I went to bed so early last night, so of course I woke up early too."

Ling Xi smiled and placed the breakfast she had just bought on the table, saying with a smile, "Here, I knew the Doctor probably hadn't eaten breakfast again, so I brought it especially for Doctor."

"Hehe, you really are my guinea pig."

Mobius, of course, didn't stand on ceremony. He picked up a bun, took a bite, and continued typing with one hand, asking, "How did you sleep last night?"

"To be honest, it's not that great."

Ling Xi shook her head, deliberately speaking in a somewhat dissatisfied tone, "Because the Doctor isn't around, I don't sleep well at all. Without the Doctor at night..."

"Hmph, I'm almost embarrassed to call you out on it. Are you trying to sleep? You clearly want to sleep... cough cough, you idiot!"

Mobius rolled his eyes at Ling Xi, but also said, "Well, there's nothing we can do about it. The rooms in the lab are quite small, and the beds are small too. It's easy for two people to fall off the bed if they sleep together, but..."

At this point, Mobius smiled slightly, "Two days ago, Klein and I went to see a villa. The contract has been signed, and we are currently doing the final cleaning and furnishing work. I estimate that... we can move in in another two days."

"Huh? Wait, a villa?"

Ling Xi suddenly had a bad feeling and asked, "Doctor, you wouldn't have... bought a villa, would you?"

"Nonsense, why don't we just rent one?"

Mobius rolled his eyes at Ling Xi and said irritably, "You're getting married, how can you rent a new house? Besides, the villa isn't actually that expensive, it's less than fifty million in total. And besides, I don't have any funds under my personal control, but rather..."

Mobius chuckled. "It's from the sponsors. After I talked to Klein about the sponsors yesterday, in addition to our original sponsors, about fifty more sponsors have expressed their willingness to sponsor us, with a total amount exceeding one billion. So... buying a house with fifty million is a piece of cake."

"Forehead..."

Ling Xi opened her mouth, unsure of what to say, because... she wasn't worried about the money at all, but rather...

Don't buy a house in the Honkai world, especially... a villa!

Moreover, the Mu Continent will completely disappear in a few years, so...

The house that the Doctor bought for 50 million is basically equivalent to renting for 50 million, and... the lease term is only a few years.

"What? Is there something you want to say?"

Seeing Ling Feng's hesitant expression, Mobius also seemed curious and chuckled, "Just say what you want to say. Is there anything we can't talk about? Or... are you dissatisfied with your new home?"

"No, it's nothing. I just wanted to ask when we can move in?"

At this point, Ling Xi didn't want to say anything more. Oh well, since the Doctor is so rich now, it's understandable for him to buy a house. Besides... what Mobius said earlier made sense. They're getting married soon, so they can't just rent a place, can they?

"I already said it, it'll be in the next couple of days."

Mobius smiled slightly and said, "Because I bought a fully furnished villa, the renovation work was completed six months ago, so there is no need to worry about not being able to move in immediately after the renovation."

"Um... okay, is it far from here?"

Now that the villa has been purchased, Ling Xi doesn't plan to say anything more. In any case, she and Mobius will stay on the Mu Continent until Herrscher of Rock arrives, since... before Herrscher of Rock arrives, this place is absolutely safe!

"It's alright, it's only about a half-hour drive."

When buying the house, Mobius naturally considered this issue, and said with a smile, "By the way, it seems we're out of cars too. Why don't you go buy one another day? Oh, by the way..."

As he spoke, Mobius rummaged in the drawer and finally took out a card, handing it to Ling Xi with a smile. "This is a supplementary card that I asked Klein to help me apply for. All the spending will be transferred directly to my account. You can buy whatever you need, or whatever you think the family needs. After all, I probably won't have much free time lately."

If he had the time, Mobius would naturally like to accompany Ling Xi to explore the Mu Continent, but...

Right now, all she wants to do is to start the research on the Herrscher Core as soon as possible, so things like shopping can wait.

"Understood, Doctor..."

Ling Xi didn't hesitate and took the card directly from Mobius's hand. Although... this seemed a bit like taking advantage of someone else, but...

Well, while Mobius's ability played a significant role in securing so much sponsorship, my battle in Changkong City also served as a show of support for Mobius, so...

Even if I'm living off a woman, I'll still be living off her like Uncle Da!

Moreover, I do need a car, otherwise it's not very convenient to go out. Also, it would be nice to take this opportunity to take Seele and the others to the city for a stroll. After all, Ling Xi, who has been to the Mu Continent once, knows very well how prosperous it is compared to Changkong City.

"Well then, Doctor, I'll be taking my leave now."

Having made up her mind, Ling Xi immediately decided to set off.

"Etc."

Mobius grabbed Ling Xi and said with a smile, "You've rested for so many days, can't you spend some time with me?"

"Heh, I was just worried about disturbing the Doctor."

When Mobius spoke up, how could Ling Xi refuse? She gently hugged Mobius and smiled, "But since it's the Doctor wants me to stay, of course I'm willing! Not just for a while, a whole day is no problem!"

"You are beautiful."

Mobius rolled his eyes at Ling Xi, then poked Ling Xi's cheek with a smile and said, "I just want you to stay and do me a favor. After you're done, get out of here and go as far away as you can."
