We moved to Golden Courtyard

"That's right... So there were even cases where the final episode was submitted with only 10 minutes left before delivery, resulting in a completely disastrous situation."

There wasn't enough time for the original drawings, and the animation director didn't have enough events to complete the checks, which made it impossible to handle everything properly afterwards. And... everyone was feeling really down at that time.

They probably think the Alahato IP is likely to be abandoned.

"And then you came!" Bronya's face flushed red, her eyes fixed on Xu Qi. "You may not know, but Seed's proposal caused a huge shock to the company!"

Especially when the overall script and the initial designs of those mechs came out... not only were the higher-ups moved, but even the people below were!

Everyone is very optimistic about Alahatov Seed, and the company has invested a significant amount! It's fair to say that the entire company is passionate about the project to revive Alahatov!

Xu Qi's mouth was slightly open—after all, he really hadn't expected his script to bring about such a big change.

“That’s true,” Delta added. “I’ve read the plot, including the mecha designs. Although there are many inconsistencies, I can still sense them.”

You can feel the creator's love for Alahatto, and their ambition to revive its former popularity with this work! Although in many places it's a clumsy imitation of UC.

Xu Qi scratched his head awkwardly, while Bronya burst out laughing, placing her small hand on Xu Qi's shoulder and trembling uncontrollably.

“But no matter what…” Bronya, emboldened by the alcohol, leaned close to Xu Qi’s ear, “I’m grateful for your arrival… Xu Qi.”

……

Xu Qi took a deep breath.

"Alahato Seed".

"Ok?"

Xu Qi glanced at Bronya beside him. Her cheeks were flushed from the alcohol, making her look extremely beautiful. However, there was no hint of lust in Xu Qi's eyes.

"I assure you, this will absolutely not be the last Allahato, nor will it be the best! In the future... we will definitely create more! Better Allahato!"

I assure you, Bronya, the supervisor!

196. You are Möbius, my little snake...

Where did this...human peach blossom spirit come from...?

Delta held her wine glass, looking at Xu Qi, who seemed to be making a promise, and then glanced at Bronya, who was clearly in a daze.

My brain is trembling...

Even Rita's gaze towards Xu Qi inevitably changed somewhat.

After all, he is truly radiant now. Everyone can feel Xu Qi's determination in his earnest eyes.

This is a young man who, once he makes a promise, will absolutely fight tooth and nail for it.

But that doesn't change his lewd nature!

But how should I put it? As expected of a professional elite who has been working in the industry for countless years, Bronya quickly overcame that momentary infatuation in just a short while.

She rolled her eyes at Xu Qi and said in a voice only the two of them could hear.

"No matter how much you move me, I still won't give you my panties, but I can give you my stockings today. Take them home and use them to relieve your tension."

Who wants that thing?!

In the end, the dinner ended in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. When it was time to leave, Bronya was obviously drunk and simply clung to Xu Qi.

Xu Qi also successfully experienced Bronya's mature and explosive figure. This is what you call a truly ripe peach...

"Supervisor, you're drunk. Get up! Rita has already brought the car over."

Supporting Bronya, Xu Qi's face flushed red. He really couldn't resist the teasing of an older sister like Bronya...

Delta stood to the side, looking on with amusement.

Xu Qi finally understood—this guy liked to stir up trouble.

Is this an occupational hazard of yours as the production manager?

In the end, they managed to get the completely drunk Bronya into Rita's car.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it and keep an eye on things."

"Then I'll leave it to you, Miss Rita."

The dark blue Maserati drove away, and Delta glanced at Xu Qi, who was still watching the two leave, and asked, "Do you have a car?"

"Ah, yes, Delta-senpai."

"then you……"

"It's okay, I've called someone to pick me up."

"That's good. I'll head back now. I'm getting old, and my energy isn't as good as yours, you young people."

Xu Qi glanced at Delta. "Although you speak in a very mature tone, it's really jarring that a legally petite girl like you, with a height and appearance similar to Theresa, would say something like that..."

Besides, 26 isn't old, is it? I'll only be 25 this September!

Goodbye, Delta-senpai.

"Okay, see you tomorrow."

After watching the other party leave, Xu Qi didn't have to wait long. Under the cover of night, an ordinary green Nissan pulled up in front of him, and the door opened automatically, as if inviting him to get in.

Xu Qi shrugged and, amidst the varied gazes of the many passersby, got into the car.

"Drinking?"

Professor Möbius seemed to be in a fairly good mood.

"Um... I had a drink with my colleagues."

Lying comfortably in the seat, Xu Qi was slightly surprised, because when he saw the green Lamborghini, he immediately knew that the person who came to pick him up was Mebius.

The professor really likes this car and usually doesn't let others drive it, nor does he like to use it to pick up or drop off people.

Besides Xu Qi...

Speaking of which, this little bull has been modified beyond recognition by the professor, and many of Sister Velvet's ideas have been incorporated into it.

The door opened automatically the instant it stopped in front of Xu Qi, which was a small detail.

"Is she a female colleague? She smells quite strongly of perfume."

Xu Qi scratched his head awkwardly; the professor was as perceptive in this regard as ever.

"On his first day at work, he went out to dinner with a female colleague, and... they were quite close, weren't they? Our Mr. Xu Qi is getting better and better at flaunting his romantic relationships."

"Professor, please stop making fun of me..."

Seeing the wry smile on Xu Qi's lips, Mebius became even more excited.

In the end, aren't they just their own guinea pigs?

"Professor, how come you have some free time? You've seemed really busy these past few days."

"Don't you know why I'm busy?"

It's quantifiable... rather than quantifiable...

Mebius chuckled softly.

"Don't worry, the research and development phase is almost over. You'll be able to see the prototype soon."

"Really?"

"Well, it might be... a little beyond your imagination."

"what?"

"After all, you know that Wilvi always has some strange ideas in her head, and I can't really stop her, so the things she designs are..."

I think you don't want to stop it at all!

Xu Qi rubbed his forehead, but what could he do? After all, it was his beloved professor...

"It's fine, as long as it can be equipped with the Moonlight System."

"Regarding this... the progress is not encouraging."

"Really... It's alright, Professor, I believe you."

"Don't trust people so easily, kid..."

“But you’re not just anyone, are you?” Xu Qi said matter-of-factly. “You are my Professor Möbius.”

……

Mebius took a deep breath and stepped on the gas, accelerating.

It was at this moment that Xu Qi realized something was wrong—this didn't seem to be the way back to the Golden Courtyard.

"Professor, where are we going?"

The scenery outside the window rushed by, and Möbius replied casually, "I'll take you somewhere to relax."

The car drove all the way to the Huangpu River and stopped on a grassy area. There were few people around, and it looked very desolate.

Xu Qi stepped out of the car with a hint of curiosity, looking ahead. A cool breeze blew against his skin, and the night view on the river appeared somewhat hazy against the backdrop of the lights on the opposite bank.

In the distance, ferries came and went, and the roar of diesel engines added a touch of liveliness.

"It's not bad. I used to come here for a while when I was stuck in a research bottleneck."

Stepping out of the car, Möbius, as always, wore her white lab coat. Her hands were in her pockets, and her long, pale green hair swayed gently in the breeze behind her.

Xu Qi turned to the side and saw Möbius leaning against the car, staring blankly at the river view, seemingly lost in thought.

“In the past… Klein always accompanied me here.”

Xu Qi's expression froze for a moment.

"The research on the Moonlight System is actually progressing rather poorly... That's why I said before, don't trust others so easily, after all, I'm not a god."

Xu Qi walked around to Möbius's side. For the first time, he sensed a sense of dejection from the professor...

Without hesitation, Xu Qi pulled the woman in front of him into his arms and slowly said, "Is there anything I can do to help you?"

Mebius smiled.

"In a situation like this, instead of comforting me and saying it's okay if we can't figure it out, you're not here to reassure me?"

“Because I know that’s not what the professor needs, and I also believe… Professor, you can do it. You are not a god, but you are Möbius, my little serpent…”

The touching words made Mebius feel as if her heart had stopped beating. She held her breath, seemingly never having imagined that Xu Qi would say such a thing to her.

Originally, she just wanted to bring Xu Qi here to clear her head...

"Who's your little snake! Don't flatter yourself!"

Despite his fierce words, he obediently let Xu Qi hold him, even reaching out to wrap his arms around Xu Qi, greedily inhaling his scent.

"Speaking of which, you're really good at this trick. You must have used it to seduce girls quite a bit, right?"

Xu Qi gave a wry smile.

"What makes me think I have the right to seduce other girls?"

"Humph!"

With a flick of his tongue, Möbius looked up at Xu Qi.

"I was already in a bad mood today, and now it's even worse."

"Ugh?"

He led Xu Qi to the front of the car and then pushed him down onto the car.

"Speaking of snakes, they're such greedy creatures...they want to swallow everything, don't you think? My little guinea pig~~"

197. Snakes cannot do these things.

Her graceful figure lay sprawled on Xu Qi's body, and the car body, which could have provided Xu Qi with some coolness, became unbearably hot because of Mebius's alluring physique.

If it were someone else, he could restrain himself, but this is Mebius... does he need to restrain himself?

In front of the professor, Xu Qi always liked to indulge himself.

"So the way to cheer up the professor is to swallow something?"
