Chapter 81

Huh? Lu

You? Opportunity? Three

Kiana sniffled, looking at Anna's pitiful state. Remembering Anna's past obedience and kindness, she gritted her teeth and said, "Don't be discouraged, Anna, you have your cousin!"

Anna continued to sob, and Kiana went over and patted her head.

"Elysia and An Yu aren't actually that close," she said against her will.

Although the siblings often quarreled at home, Kiana was unaware of it!

"What if, actually, there's a chance?"

After all, Kiana always thought An Yu was dishonest, and that he definitely had designs on her best friend.

With a heavy heart, she chugged down her drinks in large gulps, as if doing so would lessen her psychological burden.

"Don't be afraid, Anna. An Yu hasn't officially announced anything yet. Brave people should enjoy the world first."

"Are you worse Elysia?!"

Tears streamed from Anna's eyes, tears she didn't mean. It seemed like her cousin's already fragile personality had shattered a little more this time.

Kiana eventually calmed Anna down, then walked unsteadily and blankly out of the room, still clutching the nearly empty wine bottle in her arms.

Drinking alcohol late at night is bad for your health.

An Yu casually complained, and after tidying up the living room, he prepared to go back to sleep, but first he would play a game.

Recently, he discovered that the world is gradually revealing its truth to him.

"An Yu..."

Kiana stared at him with unfocused eyes, her mind a jumbled mess.

Aside from the fact that his face was decent-looking, she really couldn't understand what Anna saw in him.

"I am here."

"Anna confessed her feelings to you?"

She staggered down the stairs, making An Yu's heart tremble. She was afraid that she would fall like a ball.

Anna said she likes you.

"I am honored," An Yu said calmly.

Kiana sat on the sofa, clutching a bottle of liquor.

Knowing nothing, she didn't know what to say, after all, An Yu didn't seem to have done anything wrong.

"Could you help me upstairs?"

She felt her vision blurring; oh no, she had overestimated her alcohol tolerance.

"No, but there are blankets here, and the living room has air conditioning. You can take a nap here."

What's your preferred sleeping temperature?

An Yu asked casually, only to find Kiana asleep on the sofa, the wine bottle in her arms upside down on her chest. The good news was that it was empty.

An Yu was silent for a while, then sighed, checked the time—11 p. m. Everyone's rooms were dark except Anna's, which was still brightly lit.

He went and knocked on the door.

Who is it?

Anna's sweet voice was tinged with a sob and the smell of alcohol. The door opened, and Anna leaned against the doorframe, her head spinning and her cheeks flushed from being drunk.

"An Yu...?" She blinked her hazy eyes.

How did you get here?

"I'm here," An Yu replied habitually. "Your cousin is passed out on the sofa, but it looks like you're not capable of carrying her..."

Hmm...

Before he could finish speaking, just as he said "I'm here," Anna collapsed into his arms, sobbing uncontrollably.

"Xiaoyu, now that things have come to this, you don't even want to say a word to me?"

An Yu glanced downstairs; Kiana was still asleep.

Your cousin is drunk.

Why won't you look me in the eyes?

Anna tried to turn An Yu's cheeks back, her drunken pinkish-purple eyes stubbornly following his gaze, but she didn't have the strength, and her head was spinning, so she really couldn't muster any strength.

Why won't you answer my question? If you really don't know me, then why are you hiding from me?

"Open your eyes and look at me. I don't believe your eyes are empty."

This isn't about whether I'm looking for you or not; your cousin Kiana is passed out on the sofa, sleeping like a log.

"You actually have that memory too, right..." Anna's voice suddenly became very soft, like a feather brushing against the heart. "But you dare not admit it."

"You're afraid it will affect your current life."

Anna murmured softly, her voice weak.

An Yu gave a soft "hmm," after all, he still thought it was too foolish to take things in the game seriously.

"But I'm not afraid. I don't think I'm any worse Elysia..."

Anna buried her burning cheeks back in the crook of his neck and murmured softly.

"For over 20 years, I've been a very obedient child at home, a good kid in my parents' eyes. Now I want to be willful just once, to be a bad person..."

"If Elysia can be a bad person and break us up, why can't I?"

Because it was a dream, it was a game, although it might be from the past tens of thousands of years ago, but it had nothing to do with the present. An Yu didn't say it out loud.

"An Yu..."

"An Yu..."

"... I am here."

Anna pursed her lips, tilted her slightly tipsy face up, and grinned foolishly. Her tear-streaked cheeks resembled flowers blooming after the rain. "You see, your eyes aren't actually empty, are they?"

Volume 1: Chapter 119-118 Death and Life

In the end, An Yu didn't do anything out of line, and Anna fell asleep, nestled in his arms.

When a woman is unconscious, anything she does can be judged as indecent assault, molestation, or rape, An Yu is very clear about this.

Carefully placing the girl on the bed, An Yu gently wiped away the tear stains on Anna's cheeks with her fingertips, squatted at the head of the bed, remained quiet for a long time, and finally gulped down the unfinished bottle of wine.

A spicy liquid slid down my throat.

An Yu wiped her mouth. "As expected, I, An Yu, still can't bring myself to toy with a girl's feelings."

"I think I really like you, Anna."

Although there was a possibility of being convicted, An Yu still gently kissed the girl's lips, which were particularly red from being drunk.

He wasn't drunk; he was perfectly sober.

The message on my phone is still stuck on the teacher's question, "Why don't you try converting to Islam?"

An Yu: "If I marry the girl destined for Schicksal, won't you expel me from Anti-Entropy, teacher?"

He stood up, covered Anna with the blanket, and just then his phone rang again, ringing twice.

Einstein: "My son, let me tell you something from my own experience: sometimes, just do it, don't leave it for later and regret it."

[An Yu]

An Yu: "Hmm."

He returned to the living room, where Kiana was still fast asleep on the sofa. The child seemed very happy; perhaps she had saved the world in her past life, which is why everyone she met in this life was subconsciously taking care of her.

"Thank you, An Yu is kind-hearted and can't bear to see others sleeping on the sofa."

Pushing open Kiana's door, An Yu was taken aback by the dim light emanating from the pitch-black room and the faint glow of Kiana's light-gray eyes. She then turned on the light.

Bronya was lying on the large bed beside him, her beautiful eyes blinking as she watched him with a leisurely air.

"Don't look at me, boss, you know me. She's drunk and passed out on the sofa. The lights in your rooms are off, so I don't want to wake you up."

Bronya nodded in agreement. She still trusted An Yu... Why? Just because An Yu had been pinned on the confession wall for four years in college, ruining her own chances of finding a boyfriend.

"Who was she drinking with?"

Anna.

Bronya nodded again, which made perfect sense.

Where is Anna?

"She was drunk too. Kiana- senpai forced herself to walk out, and then passed out drunk."

An Yu handed Kiana over. Kiana seemed to realize that the warmth beside her was gone, and struggled gently for a moment, but still did not wake up.

He has a very low alcohol tolerance.

"Hey boss, what are you doing here? Aren't you afraid Seele will complain if you don't go home?"

Bronya pursed her lips and gestured for An Yu to look at the curtains to the side.

An Yu followed the gaze and saw Mei sitting melancholically on the windowsill, her arms wrapped around her legs, gazing at the night sky, surrounded by a low-pressure atmosphere.

What's going on?

"Mei said that Kiana and I were giving her the silent treatment, and that we betrayed her." Bronya yawned, somewhat helplessly.

An Yu didn't understand, but the relationships between the three major families were indeed quite complicated, and he didn't intend to delve into such matters.

"Put Kiana down. When it comes to taking care of people, Mei is no less capable than you."

After a moment's thought, An Yu gently placed Kiana on the bed.

Then, watching Mei's solitary figure disappear into the distance, he suddenly remembered something and asked in a low voice, "Is Mei- senpai's cooking really that good?"

Bronya burst out laughing instantly, then lowered her voice as well. "How could that be!"

Mei a pampered young lady, the kind who never lifts a finger. Her family isn't as poor as they are in the game, and her cooking is awful.

In the game, Chef; outside the game, she's a thunder queen. (The rest of the text appears to be gibberish and unrelated to the game description.)

Mei, standing to the side, looked even more melancholy. No matter how quietly they spoke, they were all standing close together.

"Then I'll head out first."

An Yu shrugged. Having satisfied his curiosity, he had no intention of staying there any longer.

Bronya quickly found her slippers and ran out. The corrupted Mei was too terrifying; she wasn't going to stay there.

"Congratulations, An Yu, you have passed the test."

Bronya said with feigned seriousness,

"What kind of test?"

"Kiana is such a beauty, and you didn't even take advantage of her when you hugged her. The organization trusts you a lot. Even if you can't make it in the gaming world in the future, you can always go and seek Mei."

Bronya patted An Yu on the shoulder, thinking, "No wonder he's the kind of man who can slap away all my romantic luck."

An Yu muttered to herself, "Because I just kissed her cousin."

Bronya interlaced her fingers and stretched comfortably above her head. "I'm going to sleep now. I have to go back to the orphanage tomorrow to take care of some chores, and... the anniversary celebration!"

"And we also need to get sponsorships."

She yawned and headed back to her room, exhausted. She hadn't adjusted to the time difference yet and needed to sleep.

Speaking of sponsorship, An Yu thought of Kevin, whom she had neglected. It seemed unnecessary to ignore him like this; perhaps Kevin truly held some secrets from his past.
