Collapse? No, this is just everyday life.

Little did she know, a purple-haired girl had been watching her with deathly intently from behind for some time.

Soon, Kiana's screams echoed through the room.

Perhaps Kiana's screams were too pitiful, because Seele, Bronya, and Mei quickly came out of their rooms rubbing their eyes, and all of them craned their necks to look down.

Nangong Yu greeted them one by one with a smile.

Seeing that Nangong Yu had recovered, Mei smiled with relief.

Bronya's eyes sparkled. Yesterday's opportunity had been snatched away by Seele, and today she wanted to do something too.

Xi'er, however, didn't think too much about it. She immediately waved her hand in surprise, then ran downstairs and pounced on Nangong Yu.

"Brother, are you alright?"

"Yes, thanks to Seele's care~"

To everyone's surprise, this compliment made Xi'er's face turn red instantly. She looked around, then leaned close to Nangong Yu's ear and whispered, "Brother, do you know about what happened yesterday?"

"Yesterday? What happened?"

Seeing Nangong Yu's genuine confusion, Xi'er finally breathed a sigh of relief and waved her hands repeatedly at him, "It's okay, it's okay, brother, don't worry about it, hehe~"

This secret, done to her brother like a little secret, made Seele feel a little excited.

Girl, didn't anyone tell you that this will make people care more?

Looking at Xi'er's smiling face, Nangong Yu pondered how to get Xi'er to speak.

Compared to the cheerful atmosphere on this side, the atmosphere on the other side was slightly off.

"Eden, don't you think Ah Yu went too far? How could he treat such a cute girl like that?!"

In a pink, dreamy room, Ellie lay on the bed in her pajamas, her two cute, white feet seemingly venting her dissatisfaction as they pounded on the soft mattress. On the tablet screen in front of her, a neatly dressed Eden looked at her with a rather helpless expression.

Chapter Fifty: How to Paint It?

"He didn't reply to my messages for a whole day!"

She rolled over and lay on the bed, holding the tablet in both hands. Her cute cheeks puffed up in a huff, and her full breasts, now free from restraint, trembled wildly with her movements, constantly asserting their presence even through her pajamas.

"My dear Ellie, don't be angry. Is it possible that the other person was just busy or didn't have their phone with them?"

After Ellie finished complaining, Eden on the screen smiled and began to comfort her.

"I know!"

Eden's smile stiffened slightly; Ellie's words had caught her off guard, and she asked in confusion, "Since you know, then..."

"But I'm just angry!"

"..."

"Okay, okay, so this is how you play it?" Eden shut his mouth on his own. Is this what girls in love are like? They're really scary.

"Moreover, it's already the second day, and there's still no news from Ayu."

Despite her anger, a hint of worry crept into Ellie's voice as she spoke.

"Then why not call someone close to him and ask?"

"It's not that we can't fight, but..."

Seele and Yaya treat her like a thief; even if she asks, they might not tell the truth.

"Is it inconvenient? And, that Ah Yu you mentioned, does he have any other relatives or anything?"

Seeing Ellie's somewhat troubled expression, Eden brought it up again.

"Dear family... Oh! How could I forget about my mother-in-law? Thank you, my dear Eden, I'll go call her right now!"

"You're welcome."

My best friend has already started calling her mother-in-law? Does the other side even know she suddenly has a daughter-in-law?

Eden maintained a smile on his face, but inwardly he was secretly complaining about Ellie.

Without trying to hide it from Eden, Ellie picked up her phone and dialed Cocolia's number. The call was quickly answered, and Ellie's sweet voice, so cloying it made Eden's scalp tingle, came out.

Soon, Ellie got the information she wanted.

"Has Ah Yu come to Europe? Or is it the city I'm in now?!"

"What? He arrived yesterday, and he went to the beach with a bunch of cute girls?!"

He didn't even tell me...

"I see......"

The phone call grew increasingly silent until, finally, Ellie whispered goodbye and hung up.

"Ellie..."

Eden looked at her 'smiling' best friend with some concern, and quickly received a response from her: "What's wrong? My dear Eden."

"Are you OK?"

"Me? Of course I'm fine. The weather is great today, clear skies and bright sunshine. Plus, I'll get to see Ayu later. Is there anything happier than that?"

The voice was normal, yet Eden inexplicably felt a chill.

"But......"

She really wanted to say, "Ellie, why are you laughing so horribly?" but she stopped herself in the end.

"However, since we've had such a hard-won reunion, we need to give our dear Ayu a big surprise~"

Hearing this, Eden sighed and silently began to pray for the girl named Ayu.

......

"Kiana, that's way too much."

Sirin looked at Kiana with a hint of disdain and took a few steps away.

She had only pinched Kiana a few times because Kiana had exposed her dirty secrets, but the girl screamed pitifully as if she had been beaten up.

"But it really hurts..."

With tears welling in her eyes, Kiana retorted softly, sounding aggrieved.

"pain?"

Everyone was already up. Mei frowned as she saw this scene and walked over, grabbing Kiana's arm and examining it closely.

Not long after, she looked up at Kiana and asked, "Kiana, did you forget to wear sunscreen yesterday?"

"Huh? What sunscreen?"

"..."

Okay, I've found the problem.

"Because of the reflection from the sand and water, the ultraviolet rays are very strong on the beach. Your skin is slightly sunburned, so you feel a lot of pain even though Celine didn't use much force."

Pointing to her slightly reddened skin, Mei then demonstrated by gently pinching Kiana's arm, which quickly made Kiana wince in pain.

"Ah? What should we do?"

Upon hearing that she might be injured, Kiana asked nervously.

"No, don't worry, it's not a big problem, and yours is quite mild. Just remember to apply sunscreen and wear sun-protective clothing when you go out today, and you'll recover in about a day."

"Does that mean I can't play in the water today?"

Mei was amused by Kiana's unexpected first reaction and retorted, "What do you think?"

"......All right."

With a sigh, Kiana sat down at the dining table, looking rather forlorn.

After breakfast, everyone went back to their rooms to change into their swimsuits. Nangong Yu's was the simplest; she just put on a pair of simple swim trunks and left her room.

When she opened the door, the other room doors were still tightly closed. Nangong Yu was thinking of going downstairs to wait, but after taking only two steps, the door beside her opened a crack, and a delicate white hand quickly reached out and grabbed Nangong Yu's arm.

"Ok?"

Before he could even voice his doubts, he suddenly felt a strong force pulling him away.

This power, is it Seele?

Before his thoughts could even process what was happening, he found himself being pulled into a room, and the door slammed shut behind him.

"Brother, what do you think of Seele's swimsuit?"

The girl's cheerful voice revealed her identity. Nangong Yu turned his gaze and saw Xi'er standing in front of him with her hands behind her back, happily wearing a swimsuit and showing herself off generously.

The morning sunlight wasn't strong, but the radiance it cast was enough for Nangong Yu to see Xier's beauty clearly.

The light blue two-piece swimsuit hugged her exquisite curves, her fair skin and full, firm thighs gleaming with an alluring sheen. Most importantly, it was her sky-blue eyes that looked at him with deep affection, like exquisite sapphires that firmly drew his gaze. Just looking at them filled his heart with a sweet sweetness.

Without hesitation, Nangong Yu gave a thumbs up: "Perfect! Seele is indeed the cutest in the world!"

"Hehe, brother, you're overpraising me!"

She stuck out her tongue playfully, but despite saying that, she couldn't suppress the smile on her face. Then, she took out a small porcelain bottle and put it into Nangong Yu's hand.

"Brother, can you help Seele apply sunscreen?"

“Sunscreen?”

Nangong Yu picked up the bottle, his gaze traveling from Xi'er's alluring jade feet down to her rosy little face, until Xi'er felt a chill run down her spine before finally saying, "The whole body?"

"Hey?"

Seele paused for a moment, then her toes instinctively curled up, and her body swayed slightly involuntarily. Turning her head away so her brother wouldn't see her expression, Seele answered in a very, very, very small voice, "If, if brother would like..."

......

Why are these two so slow?

On the beach, in the shade provided by parasols.

Bronya held a bottle of sunscreen in her hand, crossed her arms, and waited impatiently, her toes barely touching the ground.
