Honkai Impact 3rd is not considered a small opening

Although the little guy in front of me was very different from the flying fish ball I remembered, he was just as well-behaved, cute and adorable.

After An Yu left, Ling's expression wasn't as happy anymore. Looking at her sister Alicia beside her, Ling stood on the street, her mind racing.

"Sister Alicia, is Sister Mei very strict? It seems like Brother An Yu isn't planning to let the two of us go."

Ling has a sweet tongue because it saves a lot of trouble and avoids causing any problems. So even though she felt that something was wrong with Alicia, she didn't show any bad expression.

"...He doesn't want you to go. When you're older, if you can still call An Yu 'Brother' sweetly, you'll probably understand."

Mei's lab is sometimes very gory, the kind that would give children nightmares.

As for Ling, Alicia squatted down helplessly and rubbed the little guy's head.

"Hehe, definitely, after all, An Yu is my sister's boyfriend."

Ling paused for a moment after saying that. Did Alicia mean that her sister would break up with An Yu?

"Well, after all, they're a couple."

I should have offered my blessings, even though Sakura's sudden intrusion really ruined the relationship between the three of them.

Moreover, while she could be a little temperamental with An Yu, she couldn't be with children. They were too young, just like she used to be—naive and innocent, always mistaking other people's jokes for reality and getting upset.

…………

"Sister Mei! Mei... isn't it after get off work hours now?"

An Yu looked at the two people working, her voice unconsciously lowered, and she muttered to herself.

"And Blanca, it's time to eat."

"Speaking of which, what did you all eat while I was away?"

"Takeout, please." Upon hearing that familiar voice, Blanca subconsciously stopped working, intending to jot it down before waiting for her night shift.

"Brother Hen, you're so free, aren't you coming to deliver the food?"

Blanca was quiet for a while.

"...Is it possible that people like you who take time out of their day to deliver meals are actually in the minority?"

No, it's not just a minority anymore, it's practically nonexistent. Dr. Mebius wasn't seriously injured and hospitalized; she was working normally. It's abnormal for you to come and deliver meals to her all day long.

Oh, you haven't been here for two or three days. But it's understandable to be in a relationship. When she was dating Hen, her best friend would hang up on her directly. I feel sorry for her best friend. It's not easy to have a relationship, so of course her boyfriend is more important.

"That seems to be true, but some people don't appreciate what they have. They're always yelling at me and complaining about this and that. They have no sense of fun at all."

She pointed meaningfully at a green-haired, 1.73-meter-tall, 109.4-pound PhD student, but Sister Mei clearly didn't pay any attention.

"broke up?"

An Yu: ...

Blanca: ...

"Hey, why are you here if you haven't broken up yet?"

Seemingly surprised, or perhaps feigning astonishment, Mebius wasn't actually a very serious person.

"I suddenly realized, Sister Mei, you're not lacking in romance, you just lack emotional intelligence!"

"And you're making it sound like I'm heartless. I've been coming all along, you know."

At least, An Yu hasn't seen any other people bringing food to the experimental area in all this time.

Hmph, as expected, prolonged gentleness only makes others take it for granted and even forget to be grateful. What terrible human nature.

"Alicia didn't throw a tantrum at you?"

It's quite strange, considering that when Alicia came to me to complain before, I was completely dumbfounded. After I analyzed the situation twice, Alicia couldn't even speak.

"She just can't stand to see me doing well. She's clearly a gentle and kind person, but she gets uncomfortable whenever she sees her friends doing better than her."

Blanca: ...

There was something she wanted to say, but she wasn't sure if she should. However, seeing An Yu's rambling, she didn't say anything.

They're already in a relationship, so bringing it up again will only cause them more trouble; it's unnecessary.

"By the way, Sister Mei, were you surprised when you heard this news?!"

Blanca: ...

You're so cruel, An Yu.

Do we really need the PhD student to give his/her own thoughts?

"Somewhat unexpected, isn't it?" Möbius thought for a moment, then his expression of surprise vanished.

"After all, your attitude is always unpredictable. At first, I thought you liked me." Mebius had a slight smile on her face, not much, but it was rare for her these days.

“I’m even thinking about how to allocate my time between work and daily life.”

"But later I realized that you were just genuinely gentle, like cooking, caring about health, chattering about everyday things all day long, looking forward to surprises, and even taking out your salary for me was just a matter of course to you."

She made it sound so easy, even though, in her view, the most normal thing was cooking, which she did every day.

It was hard not to overthink it, but she couldn't let it affect her work, so she kept quiet. In the end, it turned out she was overthinking it. Luckily she didn't bring it up, otherwise it would have been awkward if An Yu had said, "I only see you as an older sister."

An Yu: ...

"Oh, is that so? Sister Mei is really quite reserved with her emotions, hehehehe..."

Chapter 122: A woman in her late twenties with no sense of romance is really boring.

It's not just that she's reserved; An Yu has been around for so long, and he hasn't noticed a thing about her. He even thought that Sister Mei was the legendary ruthless academic genius, someone he, a young man of marriageable age, wouldn't dare mention.

"..." Not knowing what to say, An Yu rested her chin on her hand, feeling somewhat helpless, but not too obviously.

"Why aren't you eating? You've already eaten with Alicia." Mebius was in a pretty good mood today, probably because the situation she had initially anticipated was too bad, so An Yu's appearance today made her feel that things were alright.

To be honest, Mebius isn't prone to jealousy. She has a really good mentality. She's been tricked by Alicia, tricked by Kevin, tricked by all sorts of people, and even tricked by Danzhu Cangxuan in the end. The most significant one was that she was tricked by that weird older sister, Ling.

But it's okay, she has a really good attitude. Come to think of it, as a scientist who is determined to help humanity evolve... her resilience is already at its peak.

"I'm planning to eat with Sakura later."

Möbius: ...

"That's wonderful, you've found someone to walk with through life."

But what about her? Blanca's heart is clearly not in this. Although Alicia is also close to her, she is even more conservative than An Yu. A good personal relationship does not affect Alicia's opposition to her in public matters.

Yes, she hasn't found someone who shares her values ​​yet.

"...What a boring woman. From what you're saying, I wasn't even someone who could walk with you through life before?"

An Yu's expression, which had finally improved, turned somewhat somber again, even though he knew that Sister Mei was simply expressing her feelings and even wishing him well.

"It's different. Friends who share the same ideals are different from any other type of friend."

"But I've already compromised!"

"Forget it, why bring this up? A woman without any charm is really boring."

After thinking about it, I realized that getting angry was pointless; it would just make me just like that idiot Alicia.

I'm a bit frustrated. It was the same last night. Sister Mei felt like she couldn't understand him, but when I wanted to join in or even help him out, Sister Mei complained that he was bad at his job.

It's so frustrating! Möbius never treated him like an adult until now that he has a girlfriend, and only then did Möbius realize that he's already a big kid.

?

"You eat by yourself. I'm going to find Sakura. Talking to you makes my head spin and I feel really bored. Blanca, keep an eye on Mei. I feel like her attitude is a bit more boring than before."

Blanca: Me?

What have I done to deserve this?

However, the doctor is indeed quite boring. She is too... data-driven, too rational, but this rationality is clearly a facade.

If things continue like this, when something really happens and your rationality and determination are shattered, there might be no one to pick them up for you.

"Doctor, did you do this on purpose?"

"I don't like it when others have to compromise themselves to accommodate me, let alone a child who is younger than me."

Moreover, I clearly owe the other party something.

She really disliked the word "compromise," like surrender, like humans surrendering to hormones and drugs. What happened after An Yu compromised this time? She took a step further, and he continued to compromise. What's the difference between that and drugs?

Blanca nodded as if she understood, but to be honest, she didn't understand and was deeply shocked. Did interpersonal relationships really have to be so clearly defined?

"No wonder you're still single, Doctor."

Möbius: ?

…………

"Ling, did you miss me?"

I was gone for about forty minutes, which is quite a long time, to be honest. Fortunately, Alicia really enjoys taking care of children, and at least now Ling has started to sweetly call her "Aili-jie" (Elisa).

Kids are so easy to coax. This isn't Naruto, where six-year-olds start going to the battlefield.

I miss you, An Yu Ge.

Although they weren't that close, Xiaoling felt it was necessary to act a little more enthusiastic, since this was her sister's boyfriend.

And she was genuinely happy, since An Yu treated her to a delicious meal as soon as they met.

"Let's go see your sister."

"I heard her talking about how Ling was doing all day long at the hospital, and I became a little jealous."

Fortunately, he is the savior, he is Camus, and he won't hold a grudge against a child.

"Alice?" But before that, we should ask about Alice's attitude. This child has never had a good temper, although Sakura doesn't care at all.

"what happened?"

It's alright, his expression is normal. An Yu is still looking forward to a good relationship between Alicia and Sakura, otherwise he would have a headache just thinking about how the future savior would have to deal with complicated interpersonal relationships.

"It's nothing, let's go. You haven't really gotten to know Sakura properly before, maybe you two pink-haired girls can even combine and summon her."

Moreover, we will indeed need Alicia later, since Rin can become a hindrance at certain times.

"Speaking of which, how come even the Savior is now immersed in love and romance?"

Alicia enjoyed her time with Ling and returned to her previous relaxed and carefree state, noticing many things she hadn't noticed before.

For example, An Yu's slack training.

"Yes, that's true. So when Sakura is discharged from the hospital the day after tomorrow, I'll become an apprentice."

It doesn't matter if An Yu, Mebius, Alicia, or even Velvi are included; the four of them don't have any chemistry.

Mebius and Velvet are not suited for the same profession, and Alicia and An Yu have different approaches to handling things. The only combination they can give An Yu is a buff that controls the collapse, but Alicia usually plays a safety role.

But Sakura is different. Although her profession is somewhat unconventional, Sakura and An Yu have a natural chemistry.

An Yu doesn't have any special skills; she relies entirely on her high all-resistance and extremely high stats to survive.

Sakura's greatest strength lies in her gameplay.

A true master always has the heart of an apprentice, even though An Yu is currently an apprentice.

"What do you mean?"

"I need to learn techniques from Sakura; I can't rely solely on intuition and instinct anymore."

"Is my older sister very amazing?"

Ling suddenly interjected, saying that she was actually quite curious about how her sister had found a handsome, rich, and young man like An Yu.

What exactly did her sister learn without her knowledge?

"Sakura is amazing. If it weren't for her, I probably would have died in that battle."

Although An Yu probably wouldn't get involved in this kind of thing without Sakura, Sakura probably wouldn't get involved either without me, since her investigation is stuck.

As soon as she finished speaking, An Yu saw Ling's bright, sparkling eyes.

"Could you tell me about it, Brother Anyu?"

She loves stories about men and women saving each other's lives or falling in love at first sight. So, my sister is like that too.

Hmph, as expected of Ling's older sister, she's really something!
