At 3 a.m., the landmines in front of the station

"Sister Ari! You really are exactly the image everyone has in mind..."

"Is that so?"

Ari smiled gently, her movements as she poured tea were elegant and composed. "I'm glad I didn't disappoint you."

"Whoosh..."

An Qing felt she was not doing well.

He was still unable to recover from the shock of that first encounter with the killer.

Such stunning beauty would probably make a man instantly fall for her.

She marveled at the goddess's beauty, but inwardly felt fortunate—

【Thank goodness I didn't bring Cheche!!】

This is probably the best decision I've ever made in my life!

Undoubtedly, even someone like Su Che, with an extremely high threshold for cuteness and the ability to completely ignore ordinary levels of cuteness,

Even facing such a goddess, one might not be able to escape unscathed.

[Extremely High Risk!]

The girl had already marked the other woman as the top "woman you absolutely cannot bring your boyfriend to meet."

Barring unforeseen circumstances, she has no intention of establishing any connection between the two in this lifetime.

Go home and unfollow the goddess on Cheche's account...

A wicked thought began to form in his mind, and he pondered the feasibility of this matter.

The plan is pending.

"Ah, there are so many flowers here..."

The goddess's beauty seemed to emanate a spiritual pressure. Only after recovering from her terrifying pressure did the girl finally realize that her shop was filled with flowers.

Fragrant and beautiful, with a pleasant temperature.

The refreshing environment, coupled with the wafting aroma of tea, makes this place exceptionally elegant.

What surprised her even more was that in the upper right corner of the greenhouse stood something she knew very well—

"Drawing board".

"!"

"Sister Ari, is this... hand-drawn?"

An Qing seemed to have seen a divine artifact, Su Che, and was drawn to the goddess's painting like a black hole.

His body moved uncontrollably closer, wanting to witness the goddess's true power up close.

"Yes, I sometimes sit down and sketch a few lines when I have nothing to do. Just do whatever you want, don't worry about it."

The goddess brewed two cups of black tea in an exquisite teapot and walked over with two collectible cups in her hands.

An Qing stood in front of the easel, staring intently at the life-size replica of "Night Sky Flower Sound" on it, her shock beyond measure.

"This is...an oil painting..."

Only now does she finally understand—

The goddess Ari is a professional "artist".

Instead of being a novice "little artist" like myself who casually learns digital painting and starts out.

"My lady goddess..."

"Okay, okay, stop looking at me with those weird eyes. I'm just a normal person."

Ari gently handed over the teacup. "Just call me sister. Here, shall we have a drink?"

"it is good……!"

The captivated girl's pupils dilated.

She held the slightly hot teacup in both hands and sipped the tea slowly.

It has a delicate fragrance, a sweet taste, and a layered flavor that can make you feel dizzy.

It's hard to tell whether it's the goddess's perfect scent or the unique flavor of the black tea itself.

The two sat facing each other on the sofa in front of the easel.

Ari looked at the girl with a perfectly timed smile and remarked casually:

"As expected, young and cute children are just so endearing."

"Huh...?!"

"Hare must be such a beautiful child, living a life of constant care and love, right?"

"Well... I guess so, hehehe... I'm quite content now that Cheche is taking care of me..."

Faced with the goddess's praise, An Qing lowered her guard and accidentally revealed Su Che's nickname.

"Cheche...? Boyfriend?"

"what……"

"That's lovely. It sounds like a pure and innocent name."

Ari took a small sip of her black tea, her gaze revealing considerable interest:

"Hare said before that he didn't know how to prevent other girls from getting close to Cheche. Now, can you tell me more about him? I'll try my best to help you find a solution."

"Eh! Really...?!"

Upon hearing this, An Qing was immediately filled with gratitude. "Okay! Then I'll start by... starting with his charm... Sister, please don't laugh at me, my words might be quite subjective..."

"Pfft, of course I won't laugh."

Ari picked up her phone, seemingly listening attentively, but actually opened the comment panel of the writing platform, her gaze lingering on someone's comment reply—

[Ms. Ari, it's true that I haven't been getting any commissions for the past two years because I couldn't afford them... But regarding unpaid work... I still want to ask, why were you chosen...?]

At this point, An Qing began describing her boyfriend—

“In my eyes, Cheche is a very perfect, very complicated person. He has clear goals in life, is obsessed with his beliefs, extremely stubborn, but is kind at heart. He was very difficult to approach at first. I tried every means to get into his sight, and that alone took all my strength.”

"Really? Is she hard to approach?"

Ari seemed lost in thought, outwardly listening to the girl's words.

With slender fingers, she replied to someone on her phone:

[Because I recently wanted to choose an OC character that I was interested in to improve myself, I happened to think of your OC.]

Speaking of which, this child is indeed very cute. I remember when I drew it for Teacher Dengdeng, the process went very smoothly.

If you'd like, this free project will be designed based on your desired outcome. I'll depict it in ways you wouldn't expect.

Just a few words.

Su Che was immediately captured.

Only the creator can understand that nothing is more gratifying than having an artist praise your child for being cute.

This sense of accomplishment can be so intense it's like a mental orgasm.

As a novelist, Su Che's character design was approved by the illustrator, which indirectly meant that his ideas were also recognized by the illustrator.

Her aesthetic sense was praised; a goddess-level artist said, "It's very cute."

This almost completely penetrated his passive defense, causing him to instantly recover from his overexcitement.

"That's wonderful! I was worried that my child was too inexperienced and wouldn't be able to let Miss Ari enjoy drawing to her heart's content...! If... if you really like it, please! I will definitely look forward to this work with a grateful heart! Thank you, Goddess!"

Okay.

Ari looked up, quickly establishing a strong connection with him, and then turned his gaze back to the girl:

"Go on."

"Yeah, yeah! And then there's A-Che... he's totally my type. Of course, other girls might like his type too. So he ended up with quite a few... cats?"

An Qing organized her thoughts, looking at Ari's enigmatic and breathtakingly beautiful face, and poured out her bitterness little by little:

"Recently, these cats have not only increased in number, but they've also become increasingly audacious, threatening to encroach on the territory I've worked so hard to reclaim... So I'm a little worried and don't know what to do next to defend against them..."

"so……"

"Hmm! My goddess, you said before that you had no dating experience, is that...is that true?"

It wasn't that the girl wanted to doubt Ari, but given Ari's stunningly beautiful appearance, it was indeed hard for her to believe that she had never been in a relationship.

"Um. I don't have time."

To make a long story short, Ari...

"I have to grow flowers, paint, and take care of other things. I don't have time to do anything else."

She cast her gaze toward the potted plants piled high on the balcony in the distance, and said meaningfully:

"Moreover, flowers are always easier to care for than people. Relationships are such a complicated thing; once you misplace your feelings, they become sunk costs, causing large parts of your life and youth to evaporate into thin air."

"!"

Suddenly, the girl felt a chill run down her spine.

I thought to myself, "That's true."

Fortunately, I chose the right person from the beginning, so there was no misplaced trust.

Most people, after choosing someone, will separate for various reasons and find it difficult to remain friends, leaving the relationship as a blank, like a deep pit remaining in their memories.

At the same time, the time that should have been spent cultivating oneself and improving skills seems to have been taken away, disappearing along with youth.

Ari has remained single since birth precisely to avoid this situation.

Not only have she honed her skills to perfection, but she has also reached the pinnacle in terms of appearance, fashion sense, and aesthetics.

Most importantly, she has an aura that naturally gives her an edge over others.

Because she was not "contaminated".
