Ling Xi readily agreed, Ling Xi quite inflated by the Doctor's sponsorship of over a billion yuan!

I even wanted to hum a song called "Swelling Up"!

"Ugh..."

Seeing Ling cling to Ling Xi again, Seele felt a little displeased, but considering that Ling was just a little girl not even ten years old, she endured it, after all...

It's one thing to be jealous of Elysia and Mobius, but it seems a bit unreasonable to be jealous of Rin as well.

Seeing that neither of them refused, Ling Xi smiled and said, "Then, you two pack up first, I'll go call Elysia and Sakura!"

Girls need some time to prepare before going out, something Ling Xi was already used to.

"Huh? Should I call her Elysia?"

"Hmm? Should we call your older sister too?"

However, as soon as Ling Xi finished speaking, Seele and Ling both seemed somewhat unwilling.

Ling Xi: "..." No, I can understand that Seele doesn't like Elysia, but...

Ling, aren't you and your sister on good terms? Why are you like this too?

"Mmm... With my older sister around, I can't eat as much as I want, especially street food. She always says..."

Rin looked somewhat helpless, then mimicked Sakura's tone and said, "Rin, these are unhygienic, and they're too oily and salty. It's not healthy for children to eat them. I'll make you something delicious when we get back."

Ling Xi: "..." Really...

Of course, Ling Xi eventually went to call Ying along. After all, it wouldn't be right to leave Ying behind when everyone went out to play, and besides...

He's a future Flame-Chasing Moths, we can't afford to mess with him!

So, Ling Xi took Elysia, Sakura, Ling, and the world's cutest Seele with her to go for a stroll in the city.

Of course, this time I really just browsed around; I didn't buy much. After all, if I bought anything now, I'd still have to move to the new house in a couple of days, which would be too much trouble...

So, everyone just bought a few clothes and some food; the main thing was shopping and having fun.

Ling Xi returned around 3 p. m., carrying a large bag of food. She put most of it in the laboratory hall and took some more to go find Mobius.

"Doctor, would you like some cookies?"

Ling Xi came in with several bags of snacks and asked Mobius if he wanted some.

"Oh?"

Upon hearing Ling Xi's words, Mobius, who was observing and recording the experimental data, turned his chair around, looked at Ling Xi, and smiled, "Just bought this?"

"Uh-huh."

Ling Xi handed over the cookies and said with a smile, "They're pretty good, so I bought a lot more. Consider them as energy supplements for the lab."

"Good."

Mobius didn't complain at all, taking the cookie directly from Ling Xi's hand and asking, "So, did you have fun today?"

"Um..."

Ling Xi smiled and said, "Although I'm happy, without the Doctor by my side, I can't be truly happy."

"Hehe, really?"

Mobius chuckled strangely, "Elysia, Seele, and Sakura, aren't the three of them enough?"

"Um... cough cough, Doctor, you can't just say things like that."

Ling Xi panicked a little because... it seemed that both Elysia and Seele were already entangled, and as for Sakura...

Generally speaking, it's unlikely that anything will happen to her, since she wouldn't be as proactive as Elysia or Mobius, and she certainly wouldn't actively seek out Sakura, so... Sakura can basically be ruled out.

"Yes, yes, whatever you say."

Mobius, too lazy to tease Ling Xi anymore, chuckled and said, "Since I have some free time now, how about you tell me what happened next last night?"

Ling Xi "..."

"Doctor, I haven't said anything about what happened last night..."

Immediately, Ling Xi looked at Ling Xi with great resentment. Last night we clearly agreed on half an hour, but half an hour later it was another half hour, and now it's been three hours!

In the end, the Doctor was finally satisfied, but I was so tired that I fell asleep.

And then... last night, there wasn't a single piece of new knowledge, not even any old knowledge!

"Forehead..."

Speaking of this, Mobius touched his hair somewhat awkwardly and laughed, "Well... okay, okay, I'll definitely keep you company tonight, okay?"

"I don't believe you unless you sign a written agreement!"

Ling Xi resolutely refused to believe it. Sure enough, bad women are the best at lying. They tricked me into believing that Elysian Realm would reopen, and now they're trying to trick me again by saying it will definitely happen tonight. I don't believe a damn thing!

If it weren't for the fact that Mother Fu is still a high school student and can't give me warmth right now, I would have gone to find Mother Fu long ago.

"..."

Mobius's face immediately darkened. Why bother with a written agreement for something like this? Are they crazy?

"Because I feel like the Doctor has been distancing himself from me lately..."

Ling Xi pursed her lips. These past few days, Mobius had been busy with the Herrscher Core, so he hadn't had much time to spend with her. Although she completely understood the Doctor's passion for research, but...

I understand, but I'm still annoyed.

"I didn't."

Seeing that Ling Xi seemed genuinely unhappy, Mobius quickly put down what he was doing and patiently said to Ling Xi, "I've been busy analyzing the Herrscher Core these past few days, haven't I? After all, it's very important for humanity to defeat the Honkai, that's all..."

Mobius tapped Ling Xi on the head and laughed, "I haven't been distancing myself from you. I just wanted you to take good care of yourself. But since you've said that, then... wait for me tonight. I'll finish today's experiment around nine o'clock."

"Real?"

Ling Xi still had some doubts.

"Would I lie to you?"

Mobius also glared at Ling Xi, feigning anger.

Ling Xi: "..." Didn't you lie to me enough back in the Elysian Realm?

"Then can we hug for a while now, just like last time? It won't bother the Doctor."

Ling Xi wanted to hug Mobius at this moment, for no other reason than that she simply liked hugging him.

"I just can't do anything with you."

Finally, Mobius sighed, but obediently got off at the wrong chair and rolled his eyes at Ling Xi, saying, "Hurry up, you idiot."

"They're here, they're here."

Ling Xi happily sat down in Mobius's seat, and then...

I hugged the Doctor was sitting on my lap, and... I'm so happy!

Chapter 163: What's wrong with doing experiments in the lab?

In the laboratory, Mobius sat on Ling Xi's lap, intently observing the changes in the radiation parameters of the Herrscher Core. To fight against Honkai, one must first understand Honkai, and even... use Honkai to defeat Honkai!

After all, wasn't Ling Xi using Honkai power that day?

Therefore, a deep understanding of the Honkai is absolutely key to humanity's victory over Honkai!

Ling Xi "..."

While Mobius's focus was undeniably intense, Ling Xi was finding it rather boring. Although holding the Doctor was indeed very comfortable, but...

The Doctor was engrossed in his research and completely ignored him.

Speaking of which, why does the Doctor's physique seem to be getting better and better? Could it be... my doing?

Hmm... I guess so. Otherwise, how do you explain why so many young girls become more attractive after they become wives?

And on this point, I, Prime Minister Cao, am naturally the most qualified to speak!

At this moment, Ling Xi couldn't help but start comparing the Doctor and the Fairy Girl, and all she could say was... they were both great.

"Um?"

Suddenly, Mobius, who was focused on her experiment, seemed to sense something, and Ling Xi, who was already with her, naturally knew what it was...

Mobius "..."

Immediately, Mobius turned back to look at Ling Xi with some hesitation. This guy...

"Forehead..."

Ling Xi, on the other hand, just touched her nose awkwardly, trying to pretend that nothing had happened.

Mobius "..."

Ling Xi "..."

"Can... you get up?"

Mobius looked at Ling Xi, unsure of what to say about him.

"Huh? Doctor, I didn't disturb you, did I? I didn't say a word, I was completely quiet the whole time!"

Ling Xi was clearly a little unhappy. What's wrong with hugging his wife?

"Do you really think there's no disturbance?"

Mobius wanted nothing more than to slap this bastard to death. How could you call this not disturbing him?

"Forehead..."

In response, Ling Xi simply touched her nose and then said righteously, "That's also the Doctor's fault. If the Doctor hadn't listened to the story last night, I wouldn't be like this."

"Roll!"

Mobius simply told him to get lost. This guy had conducted three experiments the night before, and was just as energetic in the lab the next day, so... this has nothing to do with last night at all. It's obvious that this guy is just lusting after my body!

Of course, Mobius didn't dislike Ling Xi having feelings for him; on the contrary, he liked it. Of course, if she didn't have feelings for him, that would be a big problem.

However, while it's fine to like something, you should also be mindful of the time and place, right?

"Doctor ..."

Ling Xi suddenly hugged Mobius and gently pulled her back, letting her lean against his chest, then softly kissed her...

"Hmm..."

Mobius showed absolutely no resistance to this, after all, she didn't dislike kissing, but...

Why does it smell like Seele? Is it just my imagination?

After a long while, Ling Xi and Mobius's lips finally parted again, and Ling Xi looked at Mobius with a smile and asked, "Doctor, how about... we give it a try?"

"Stop joking, this is a laboratory."

Mobius's face flushed slightly, and he also looked a little embarrassed.

"What's there to be afraid of? We were in the same boat back in Changkong City, weren't we?"

However, Ling Xi wasn't going to let Mobius off the hook. Leaning close to Mobius's ear, she whispered with a chuckle, "Don't forget, it was you who said it, Doctor, that the lab... is just for being a lab, hoo..."

As she spoke, Ling Xi gently blew on it...

"Ugh, no... Klein and the others might come in."

Mobius was starting to panic. Although he had indeed said that before, it was still his own laboratory. Once the door was locked, no one would know if he was doing experiments or even building a nuclear reactor. But this was a borrowed laboratory.

"Don't worry, Doctor, Klein there's something wrong, and besides..."

At this moment, Ling Xi had already extended her hand to Mobius and whispered with a smile, "Just don't remove the outer armor!"

Mobius "..."

"Um?"

Instantly, Mobius felt a chill run down his spine. Holy crap! How did this guy do that? Could it be...?

Is it the power of the Herrscher of the Void?
