Collapse? No, this is just everyday life.

Eden picked up his cup and gently tapped it against hers, then took a small sip himself.

"There's nothing to be unhappy about."

Mebius also picked up his glass and took a sip, then said resentfully, "It's just endless parties, investors who have no brains but love to make stupid demands, and countless, disgusting factional struggles..."

In the end, she gritted her teeth.

"What's wrong with her?"

Seeing this, Nangong Yu leaned close to Aili and asked in a low voice.

Ellie blinked, then moved the cushion under her bottom and squeezed next to him. The sweet fragrance of flowers quickly enveloped him.

"I heard while shopping today that her lab is going to be closed for a while, that's probably why."

The soft, pleasant whispers tickled his ears, but the content of the words startled him.

Laboratory sealed off?

This is going to be the death of Mebius!

No wonder he looked so shocked.

"ME Company clearly agreed on this a long time ago, but they started this mess halfway through. As expected, North Americans are all a bunch of bastards who only care about their own interests. They're blocking my equipment and resources, and Shencheng can't help me much because of our cooperation."

After taking another sip, Möbius suddenly looked at Nangong Yu: "And you!"

"Ah I?"

Pointing to herself, Nangong Yu said, somewhat bewildered.

With the image of that despicable woman who had destroyed her lab flashing through her mind, Möbius gritted her teeth and said, "You... give... me... a drink."

"?"

Still completely bewildered, Nangong Yu wisely refrained from arguing with Mebius in this state. She picked up the decanter and poured her another glass, adding a gentle reminder: "Drink slowly, it's not good for your health."

"Humph!"

After taking another sip, Mebius's face visibly flushed red.

She doesn't usually have such a low alcohol tolerance, but she drank way too fast just now.

"call......"

With a long sigh, Möbius slumped onto the table, his wide eyes looking somewhat hazy, as if shrouded in a white mist.

"Anyway, I'm used to these kinds of troubles. I'll just let Klein handle it when the time comes..."

Klein is in a terrible state.

While inwardly complaining, Nangong Yu clinked glasses with Sister Ai Li and Sister Eden, listening to Mebius's rambling.

"By the way, didn't you pink-haired guy ask me how to do makeup?"

He let out a burp and groggily looked up.

"Hmm? Tell me now? Okay, okay~"

After drinking for a while, Ellie's face was slightly flushed, and she immediately spoke excitedly upon hearing Mebius's voice.

"Phew...wait a minute..."

Rubbing her slightly dizzy head, Mebius lay down on the tatami mat and struggled to pull her bag over. Her loose skirt was rubbed loosely, causing Nangong Yu to quickly look away.

As a result, he turned his head and met Ellie's gaze. Her teasing look made him choose to close his eyes immediately.

"Let me look..."

With the bag beside him, Möbius bent down and rummaged through the bulging contents.

Soon, she took out boxes of new cosmetics.

"My set is still in the lab, let's use these new ones we bought today for now."

"I'll help you open it!"

"I'll come too."

Ellie eagerly joined in, and Eden followed with interest. Soon, the three women were chattering away about the effects of the cosmetics.

"This is for moisturizing. I've checked the ingredient list, and it should be quite effective and gentle on the skin."

"You need to apply this first before using this to neutralize the ingredients, otherwise it won't be good for your skin."

When it came to his professional field, Möbius pointed to the ingredient lists of various cosmetics and talked at length, while Ellie listened very attentively, almost taking notes.

After explaining the bottles and jars piled on the table, Möbius opened them all.

"For everyday makeup, this set is complete enough. Since you want to learn, who of you can be the model and I'll do your makeup and explain as I go."

"A model."

Ellie looked up and met Eden's gaze, then simultaneously turned their eyes to the other side.

Nangong Yu, who was eating cake, stopped abruptly, looking somewhat bewildered at the three pairs of eyes staring straight at her.

Then, he put down his cutlery, raised his finger, and pointed to himself.

“ZhongQUn: ⑨【々寺■?仈②≤｀娰△叁三炩舞我？”

Ellie nodded repeatedly, and Eden chuckled softly, resting her cheek on her hand: "Thank you for your trouble."

"Huh? Well, men and women are different after all. Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

He was somewhat resistant to being surrounded and having his makeup done, and the possibility of being pointed at and gossiped about.

"It's okay, there are only some differences. I'll explain it to them properly. Just accept your fate, my guinea pig...makeup model."

Mebius was laughing heartily, his eyes seemingly glowing red as he looked at him.

You just mentioned white mice, right? It must be white mice, right?

"Hey, can I refuse?"

"At this moment, Ah Yu, you're not joking, are you?"

Just as Nangong Yu was about to step back, he saw Sister Ai Li rush over and grab him, saying, "Don't you dare run away!"

"I didn't run away, I was just a little uncomfortable sitting down, so I moved over."

With an awkward laugh, Nangong Yu resignedly said.

"Ah Yu, please help me, okay? Please~"

Seeing that Nangong Yu had resigned himself to his fate, Ai Li's attitude quickly softened, and she bent down to hug his neck and act coquettishly.

"Okay, okay, I promise."

Ellie knew all too well his stubborn nature; she immediately winked triumphantly at Eden and Mebius after hearing his helpless voice.

"Tsk." Eden nodded and smiled, finding it quite amusing, while Möbius, who had just taken another bite, smacked his lips in annoyance.

In relationships between boys and girls, girls are often the weaker party.

However, if there are far more girls than boys in a room, then the situation will be reversed.

Looking at the three people surrounding her, the alcohol mixed with three different subtle fragrances made Nangong Yu feel dizzy.

Whether it was the effect of the alcohol or not, Eden's face was flushed and he moved quite close, so close that he could even faintly feel the warmth of her breath near his ear, making him feel very uncomfortable.

"Don't move."

Speaking softly, Mebius took out a small bottle, smeared a little of the contents into his palm, rubbed it, and then placed it directly on his face.

The slightly cool palms gave him a jolt of energy as he watched the slender, fair fingers rubbing his face.

After spreading it evenly on his face, Möbius took out a small disc, dabbed the light brown paste on it onto his face, and then took out a round sponge, put it on his hand, and patted it to spread the paste evenly.

"Ok?"

"Don't talk, it's just the beginning."

"Oh."

As he worked on it, Mebius explained the techniques. After applying several layers of the substance, he picked up a set of objects that looked like calligraphy brushes.

"Next is eyebrow drawing, which needs to be done according to your face shape..."

"Let me demonstrate for you, watch carefully."

As she spoke, her eyes became serious, and holding the eyebrow pencil in her hand, she carefully extended the tip of the pencil towards his eyes, bit by bit.

At that moment, Nangong Yu felt as if he had become a lab rat on the experimental table, and Mebius was the terrifying researcher holding a scalpel, ready to deliver a fatal blow.

There's no way around it, the atmosphere of this scene is just too similar.

To get his eyebrows done properly, Mebius stood very close to him, almost face to face.

As he sniffed the unfamiliar fragrance, his eyes were fixed on Möbius. Despite being a researcher who often stayed up late, Möbius had remarkably well-maintained skin—fair, smooth, and without a single pimple.

If you look down a little, you can easily see a structure even more majestic than Ellie, with a deep, dark ravine in the middle that seems to absorb all light, leaving one in awe.

Möbius is indeed very good, but unfortunately, it's best to just look at it and appreciate it.

After finishing her eyebrows, she took out some more bottles and jars and continued applying makeup.

I don't know how much time had passed, but just as Nangong Yu had drifted off into Gundam vs. Godzilla, he suddenly heard Mebius say, "Alright, that's about it."

"Finally done?!"

He felt like he had a mask on his face, and he wanted to wash it off immediately.

"Don't rush, let me see!"

He tried to stand up but was immediately pressed down again. Sister Ai Li held his face and looked him over from left to right, nodding occasionally.

Eden moved closer, talking to Ellie while pointing at his face.

After who knows how much time had passed, Godzilla was almost breaching the Land of Light when Ellie finally smiled and pulled him up.

"Thank you for your hard work, Yu. Let me help you remove your makeup~"

They went to the restroom together, and after washing their faces with makeup remover for a while, Nangong Yu complained, "Putting on makeup is such a hassle."

"Hmm, so now you understand how hard I try every time we go on a date, right?"

Ellie picked up a towel and wiped his face, saying proudly.
