I must have been called "Dad" by her so many times that I unconsciously started to identify with the role of the father.
Sin ah.
......
Five minutes later, at the observatory.
Yuan Qing followed the guiding light dust within the association, ascending a spiral staircase to its end.
Before me was a heavy wooden door, slightly ajar, with intricate celestial carvings on it.
A soft, cool light, like moonlight, shone through the crack in the door.
Yuan Qing gently pushed open the door, and a refreshing coolness, carrying a faint floral fragrance, wafted towards her.
My eyes suddenly opened up.
This is a circular terrace located at the top of the tower, with no walls around it, only low, gleaming jade railings.
Above us stretched a vast, boundless, and dazzling starry sky.
Countless stars, like shattered diamonds, were embedded in the deep night sky, shimmering with light that was sometimes bright and sometimes dim.
The Milky Way stretches across the sky like a flowing ribbon of light.
Shooting stars occasionally streak across the sky, leaving behind brief but dazzling trails.
It's a beautiful sight.
But Yuan Qing could sense that this was not real, but an illusion woven from magic.
In the center of the terrace, a small figure sat quietly on the stone steps with his back to him.
Shiori Shiomi.
She changed out of her signature JK uniform, wearing only a moon-white silk nightgown, and walked barefoot on the cool, smooth jade floor.
Her long, pure white hair, like a waterfall, flowed gracefully, shimmering softly under the starry sky.
She tilted her head slightly, her eyes gazing quietly at the incredibly dazzling artificial starry sky above her, her petite body appearing exceptionally slender against the vast expanse of stars.
High on the terrace, the night breeze gently stirred the silky fabric of the bathrobe, outlining its breathtakingly alluring curves.
Above her slender waist, which seemed as if it could break at any moment, was a full, rounded curve, like the rising full moon.
The collar of the bathrobe was slightly open, revealing a slender and delicate collarbone, as well as a patch of starlight-studded white snow.
She is like a statue sculpted by both angels and demons, sacred and inviolable.
But within every perfect chisel mark lies an alluring charm that tempts one to depravity.
So the student council president can be this sexy...
Yuan Qing slowed his pace and stopped a short distance behind her.
He didn't speak, but stood quietly, his gaze fixed on the magnificent magical starry sky above.
An eerie stillness filled the air, with only the soft sound of the night breeze brushing against one's hair.
Time seemed to slow down at this moment, as if even the universe had quieted down.
After a short while, Shiori Shiomi spoke slowly, her voice softer than usual, as if afraid of disturbing the tranquility:
Do you like looking at the stars?
"Hmm? It's alright." Yuan Qing shrugged and looked up at the "starry sky" above him. "I used to look at the stars when I had nothing to do. It felt like it helped me clear my mind."
“I would do the same.”
"That's quite a coincidence. I didn't expect you to like stargazing too."
"also?"
"Yes, I have a friend I used to know. Her favorite thing to do was look at the stars, but that was a long, long time ago. I don't know how she is doing now."
"......I see."
Shiori Shiomi nodded and said, "Unfortunately, this sky is not real; it's an illusion I created with magic."
Her voice was soft, carrying a hint of barely perceptible melancholy.
Yuan Qing's heart stirred slightly.
He looked at Shiori Shiomi's small figure from behind, and at her profile as she gazed at the starry sky.
Those eyes, which had remained calm and still for millennia, now reflected flowing starlight, as if filled with the gentleness of the entire universe.
At that moment, he felt as if he had seen the real Shiori Shiomi, stripped of her "chairperson" persona.
A petite girl who feels regretful because she can't see the real starry sky.
"It's beautiful." Yuan Qing exclaimed sincerely, "The president's skills are truly amazing."
Shiori Shiomi didn't turn around, and said in a somewhat low voice, "It's still not as good as the real starry sky."
"What's wrong with illusions? There aren't any stars inside the lunar etched space anyway."
"..."
"..."
The atmosphere fell silent once again.
Yuan Qing felt that she shouldn't have spoken so romantically and overly.
He coughed lightly and teased in a deliberately casual tone, "President, are we having a secret rendezvous now?"
He expected her to glare at him coldly, but to his surprise, Shiori Shiori turned her head and looked at him, saying:
"Yes, would you like some red wine and roses?"
"Uh." Yuan Qing paused for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile. "Let's not order any more alcohol. I've already been tormented by some drunkard once today..."
"You mean 'White Nue'? That idiot only acts like that with people she finds pleasing to the eye, but apart from me and Kongwu, she doesn't find many people pleasing to the eye."
"So, she fell in love with me at first sight? I thank her, but please don't do it again next time."
After speaking, he fell silent again.
Yuan Qing looked up at the beautiful starry sky above. The starlight rippled like water, and the Milky Way flowed like a white ribbon among the stars. Everything was too perfect, too unreal.
As he watched, he suddenly, as if possessed, blurted out a sentence:
"President, let's go see the real stars together sometime when we have the chance?"
"..."
As soon as the words left his mouth, Yuan Qing regretted them.
What am I thinking? To a woman who doesn't like me, this kind of invitation is nothing short of sexual harassment!
Given our relationship, extending such an invitation would be far too abrupt.
As expected, after hearing those words, Shiori Shiomi turned her head away and refused to look at him again.
The awkward atmosphere immediately materialized and spread.
Yuan Qing lowered his head in embarrassment, his toes almost digging a hole in the sole of his shoe.
Oh wow.
This is terrible, I've definitely offended the president.
Will she throw a tantrum and refuse to help me clear the Tower of Delusion?
I need a potion! I don't want to get stuck anymore, and I don't want to fight that stinky, rock-like Goblin King again!
We need to think of a solution quickly!!
Yuan Qing's thoughts raced, and he mobilized all of his brain's computing power at that moment.
However, just as he was thinking about how to change the subject, Shiori Shiomi, who had her back to him, suddenly spoke up—
“Yuan Qing”.
"Ok?"
"You just want to sleep with me, don't you?"
"..."
"..."
"???!"
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

As always, 1.1 words updated.
All the extra chapters have been paid off, and I even paid off one chapter ahead of schedule to cover the remaining reward.
I tried so hard, but I got both tips and harsh words. It's so frustrating QAQ~

"BOOM!!"
Yuan Qing felt as if his mind had been struck by lightning and shattered in that instant.
no......
What on earth is this guy talking about?!
He stared intently at Shiori Shiomi's petite and delicate back.
The moon-sewed robe fluttered gently in the night breeze, and her pure white hair flowed with a faint starlight.
Her figure remained slender and elegant, exuding an ethereal and aloof air.
This made Yuan Qing begin to wonder if he was hallucinating.
Did this guy really say, "You just want to sleep with me, don't you?"
How can a mouth with a 37-degree angle speak words with a 5000-degree angle?!
Amazing.
It's truly breathtaking.
Is this a wealthy heiress and aloof student council president who is also a person who is repressed and arrogant?
How could such vulgar language be uttered so openly...
Hagiwara, you bastard...
As expected, I knew none of the magical girls in this world were normal.
Even the most decisive and resolute president has a side that's not human.
Great, I approve of your concentration!
Why would a normal person become a magical girl?
Yuan Qing took a deep breath, adjusted his mindset, and calmly responded to the other party:
"President, don't joke about this. Although I like looking at beautiful women, I'm a staunchly abstinent warrior before marriage."
If I said I had absolutely no feelings for you, I would be lying through my teeth. But you know how men are, the top and the bottom don't share the same brain.
That's why we say you should judge by actions, not intentions; after all, no one is perfect, cough cough... Do you understand what I mean?"
Shiori Shiomi never looked back at him once from beginning to end.
However, Yuan Qing always felt that this guy was secretly laughing behind his back.
Of course, it was a disdainful sneer.
After a long silence, Shiori Shiomi finally spoke again: "Shiro Nue told me that you cannot use our magic."
After all, we and ordinary awakened beings have two different power systems, and there has never been a precedent for this before, so you don't need to feel sorry.
"Is it a pity? Yes, it is. I was hoping to learn some advanced magic from you to deal with that goblin old man, Bitden, in the tower. Now it seems that plan is going to fall through."
