Collapse? No, this is just everyday life.

The terrace fell silent again after those words, with only two faint breaths audible.

On the clock on the wall, the minute hand slowly propelled the hour hand forward, until the hour hand pointed to the 12 position, at which point the quiet terrace was once again filled with faint sounds.

Nangong Yu, who had slept quite soundly, opened his eyes and looked at the girl in his arms who still had her eyes closed. He was thinking of lying quietly for a while longer when he suddenly heard a soft voice in his ear.

"Brother, you're awake?"

"Ah."

Looking down, I quickly met a pair of sky-blue eyes that seemed to blend into the sky. Their bright and alert appearance suggested that they had been awake for some time.

"Did you sleep well?"

"Hmm, beautiful lady, what number are you? Your skills are excellent. I'll definitely order from you again next time."

Upon hearing this, Xi'er chuckled, then coughed twice and replied in a serious tone, "Ahem, brother... Hello, guest. Xi'er is the only technician in our shop, and also your personal technician. Just let me know when you come in, and Xi'er will serve you."

After saying that, the two looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh. @⑶'￡〇｝'⑸（●

"Alright, that's enough, it's getting late."

"Okay, brother, do you want lunch? Xier will go and make it."

Nangong Yu stopped Xi'er, who was about to get up, and shook his head at her: "Let's go to the restaurant and order something today. There are some things I want to talk to you about, Xi'er."

"Ah."

She obediently lay back in her brother's arms, and hearing the word "you" made Seele quite curious.

"I originally planned to tell you guys before going to sleep, but I was so comfortable at the time that I just couldn't resist."

"It's okay, brother, it's the same whether you say it now or not~"

The words of praise made Seele squint her eyes happily, and she reached out her little hand to place on her brother's chest and gently squeeze it.

"Don't make trouble."

Grabbing Xier's mischievous hand, Nangong Yu looked into Xier's eyes.

"Seele, could you let the other Seele come out for a moment?"

Before he could get any response from Seele, he felt her body stiffen, and then her gentle expression turned somewhat fierce.

"looking for me?"

Despite her fierce demeanor, she snuggled closer to him, finding a more comfortable position.

Hei Xi has had far less time to spend with Yu than Xi Er has, and she has always cherished it.

"There are indeed some things that should be good news for you and Seele."

"Say something quickly."

Looking up at Nangong Yu's lips, Hei Xi's tongue moved slightly; she wanted to taste it.

"Don't rush, this was discussed with Dr. Möbius last night."

"Mebius? Is that the green-haired woman from yesterday?"

Hei Xi frowned, reached out and pinched his cheek: "I always felt that woman wasn't a good person, you should stay away from her."

"Don't worry, we're just friends, ordinary friends."

"You better be!"

Hei Xi glared at him and muttered, "He said such nice things back then, but now he's getting involved with one woman after another, and he has so much less time to spend with Xi'er. Even I..."

"what happened to you?"

"Tsk, it's nothing!"

Blushing, Hei Xi glared at him and said impatiently, "Keep talking, what is it!"

A smile played on his lips as he suddenly became curious about Hei Xi's expression upon hearing the news.

"The virtual world, you know what that is, right?"

"I know, didn't I see you try it back in Anti-Entropy? Although Seele hasn't experienced it yet. What, is that thing inviting Seele to do an experiment?"

"That's not true."

Shaking her head, Nangong Yu smiled and continued, "When I was drinking with Mebius yesterday, I talked to her about this. She is currently researching how to make human consciousness enter a virtual world while sleeping."

"Isn't this great? We can even play with it while we're sleeping."

No, it might also make someone a 007.

Nangong Yu muttered a complaint to himself, but didn't explain much: "If this technology is completed, there are some aspects that interest me, so I specifically consulted Dr. Mebius."

He paused, looked into Hei Xi's eyes, and slowly said, "If a person has two completely independent consciousnesses, what will happen when that person enters the virtual world?"

Upon hearing this, Hei Xi frowned immediately: "Didn't you ask Tesla about this? Didn't she say that two consciousnesses can only have one body and can't be separated?"

"That was before, didn't I tell you? It was the new technology that Dr. Mebius was researching."

A smile played on her lips as Nangong Yu, seeing the slight unease in Hei Xi's eyes, softly said, "I told Dr. Möbius about your situation. She said that if her research can be completed, and combined with the specially designed virtual pod..."

He paused deliberately, savoring the rare tense expression on Hei Xi's face, before continuing to speak with pleasure.

"In the virtual world, separating you and Seele into independent individuals is not without a solution."

For a moment, Hei Xi's breathing became rapid.

Chapter 206 Pokémon Paradise?

"Don't you have any thoughts?"

Touching Hei Xi's hair, Nangong Yu asked with a smile.

"I......"

Her restless heart made Hei Xi's voice a little dry. Her mind was in a mess. She wanted to say something, but couldn't say anything. She stared fixedly into Nangong Yu's eyes, and remained motionless.

Nangong Yu wasn't in a hurry. He looked at her with a smile. After a while, Hei Xi finally came to her senses. She first looked at him with a complicated expression, and then her whole body suddenly stiffened.

Did they run away?

Just as a question arose in my mind, I saw Seele immediately pounce on me.

"Brother, Seele is so happy!"

She wrapped her arms tightly around his neck, and in her excitement, she almost squeezed Nangong Yu's eyes out.

He couldn't say a word, his face flushed, and he hurriedly patted Xi'er's shoulder. After a few seconds, Xi'er finally reacted and quickly let go of his arm.

“Cough cough cough…”

He coughed twice, clutching his neck, then looked up at Xier with a resentful gaze.

My younger sister has grown up, and she is strong enough to lift mountains and has an aura that surpasses the world.

Are you trying to murder me?

The hoarse voice made Seele panic and wave her hands frantically, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Yes, I'm sorry, brother, Xi'er was just too excited..."

Seeing that she wanted to come closer but seemed hesitant, Nangong Yu rubbed her neck until she felt better before glaring at her. Then, seeing her pitiful and apologetic eyes, she reached out and pulled her closer.

Holding her in his arms, he pinched Xi'er's chubby cheeks and said with dissatisfaction, "It's okay to be excited, but don't be so rough."

"Xi'er knows she was wrong."

"Alright, I'm not really blaming you. Just be more careful next time."

"Um......"

Seele secretly looked up at her brother and saw that his expression was no longer upset, so she tried to approach him cautiously.

She moved closer, even closer, until they were almost touching, then she raised her eyebrows and glanced at her brother before gently kissing his slightly reddened neck.

Feeling her brother's body tremble, Xi'er asked softly, "Brother, does it still hurt?"

Upon hearing this, Nangong Yu blinked: "What will you do if I say it still hurts, Xi'er?"

"Well......"

With her cheeks flushed, Seele replied softly, "Then will Seele give me a few more kisses? Is there anything that still hurts, brother?"

"Oh, you pressed on my lower area and it hurt."

Xier: “?”

......

They cuddled together until the restaurant delivered lunch, giving Seele a snack, before she finally went to the bathroom to brush her teeth.

After lunch, they said goodbye to Ellie and Celine, who were staying at home, and walked towards the company together.

"Brother, what are you thinking about?"

Holding her brother's hand, Xi'er skipped and hopped like a child, trying her best not to step on the cracks in the bricks. Turning her head, she saw her brother's thoughtful expression and asked curiously.

"It's nothing, I just felt that the way Celine looked at me just now was a bit strange, and I didn't quite understand what she said this morning."

During the meal, Xilin kept blinking at him. He asked Xilin if her eyes were uncomfortable, and she immediately glared at him angrily.

"Celine?"

"Well, I'll ask about it when I have time later. It shouldn't be a big deal."

As Nangong Yu passed by a flower bed, she had just finished speaking when she heard a familiar shout coming from afar.

"Boss~"

"Ok?"

Turning their heads, they quickly came into view of three figures waving at them.

"Oh, it's Gretchen and Sagiri."

Seele also saw the three people and waved to them with a smile.

Mrs. Izumi led the way, and the three of them quickly jogged over.

"Is the boss planning to go to work?"
