We moved to Golden Courtyard

"that is!"

Greta pouted, her lips curving upwards, and looked at Xu Qi with obvious dissatisfaction.

"Gresh is very well-behaved, Brother Xu Qi, you don't need to worry about me."

Xu Qi laughed and pinched Greta's little nose—how could she be so cute? My Greta?

Sitting to one side, Xu Qi watched as Dr. Mei continued to tutor Gretchen.

It seems that today's questions are mostly basic, and the difficulty will be gradually increased later.

The explanation method wasn't the simple and crude approach of genius-style teaching, such as... "Look at this edge, do you understand?" or "Pay attention to this condition, do you understand?"

For someone who isn't particularly talented, the only thought probably in their mind is—"What the hell do I know?"

Mei explained it in great detail. How detailed?

It was so detailed that if Xu Qi were listening attentively, he would be driven crazy with anxiety.

After all, geniuses, whether teaching or listening, only appreciate the kind of "finishing touch" that truly matters.

But look at Mei, a figure who can be considered the world's number one in the field of quantum physics, now teaching Gretchen middle school math...

It's quite funny.

Xu Qi wanted to laugh but had to hold it in. After watching for a while, he turned on his computer to prepare for work.

They even said to let me work for a week as a trial period—that's completely unnecessary! If Mei doesn't mind, Xu Qi even wants Mei to tutor Gretchen in math from now on.

But thinking about it, I know it's impossible.

He's Dr. Mei from the Earth Network...

In order not to disturb Gretchen's work, Xu Qi looked around the little girl's room and finally had no choice but to sit on her bed and start working.

It's alright, Greta won't mind.

After all, most of the dolls on her bed were bought with Xu Qi's help.

Time passed slowly, and Xu Qi didn't know how much time had passed. He was working when he suddenly smelled a faint fragrance.

The scent is familiar; it's bud...

Would you like some water?

"okay."

I naturally took the water glass, took a sip, and put it on the bedside table. A little while later, I felt a soft, fragrant body resting on my shoulder.

"What are you doing?"

Mei is being affectionate with him again.

"The script for the series after Alahato Seed has been progressing a bit slower recently because I've been focusing on the production of the PV."

"You can write scripts too..."

"What are you saying? You already know about my job..." He stopped mid-sentence, just like Xu Qi glancing to the side.

Xu Qi was stunned as he looked at that familiar yet unfamiliar face so close to him.

"Mei?"

"Well, what happened?"

With her hands on Xu Qi's shoulders, she leaned completely against Xu Qi's side, her bright eyes blinking as she looked at Xu Qi, seemingly oblivious to anything amiss.

Even when Xu Qi didn't realize it was Mei, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

Xu Qi was about to speak sternly, but then he remembered something, looked past Dr. Mei, and saw Gretchen racking her brains to do a math problem behind him.

He looked flustered for a moment, glancing at Mei and then at Gretchen.

Not daring to make any big moves, he could only say in a low voice, "What are you going to do? Aren't you teaching Grey math? What..."

"Yes? But I'm not familiar with the child, so I'll have to take a preliminary assessment eventually, won't I?"

That's...indeed...

"With the teacher constantly watching, the child always feels uncomfortable doing the exercises, doesn't he?"

So you're going to come and flirt with me then!?

Yes, teasing, because Xu Qi had already seen the mockery in the older woman's eyes.

"Why...wasn't it quite natural before? You didn't seem to mind at all."

Xu Qi's mouth was half open, unable to answer.

You say you look exactly like Mei? That scent earlier... it was practically Mei's body odor.

Xu Qi and Mei have been intimate countless times, and this kind of fragrance can only be smelled when they are very close to each other, so Xu Qi would never be mistaken.

And now... the other person also has the same fragrance...

However, upon closer examination, there are indeed differences.

Mei is like a glass of juice, full of freshness and vitality, making you want to greedily draw a ray of sunshine from her.

Mei, however, is like a bottle of fine red wine, seemingly steeped in many stories, mysterious and alluring, making one want to explore it further...

She's the older sister... Mei's charm only comes after she grows up, no, after she's fully matured!

Xu Qi is definitely a shoo-in!

"Actually, you asked me to come and teach Gretchen not just because you thought I was suitable, right?"

Xu Qi's heart tightened. He saw in the other person's eyes a feeling that seemed to say, "I know everything."

With a charming and seductive smile, Mei remained nestled beside Xu Qi, her voluptuous and mature body pressed tightly against his, sparking endless fantasies.

"You let Aponia see my fate, let Mebius analyze my morphological data through surveillance, and deliberately let Mei observe me at such close range."

"You're really naughty... Xu Qi."

Xu Qi’s throat bobbed, his eyes filled with shock—oh no…she had seen right through him!

"You want to know why I look so much like Mei, right?"

Xu Qi narrowed his eyes, feeling utterly exposed under this woman's watchful eye. This was terrible… Would Mei become like this too?

"But it's okay, I gave permission."

461. I couldn't resist my older sister's advances.

Permission granted?

Xu Qi didn't quite understand what the other person meant at first.

What was allowed? The permission to continue the investigation? But...why? No normal person would consider this a trivial matter!

Xu Qi remained silent, no longer paying attention to Mei's body, and pressed himself even closer to her.

He carefully pondered the other party's previous words, seemingly trying to figure out why the other party had agreed so easily. Was it for the benefit of the ground network?

It's unlikely...

Xu Qi was completely baffled, and in the end... he just gave up on thinking about it.

He asked directly and quietly, "Why? What good does this do you? We've already offended you by treating you like this!"

Aren't you...aren't you angry at all?"

Mei pretended to be thinking, lightly touching her lips with her index finger. This innocent gesture, like that of a little girl, didn't feel artificial at all when she did it.

On the contrary, it is incredibly alluring.

Xu Qi only then noticed that... the distance between himself and Mei had become quite ambiguous.

Just as she was about to break free, Mei said, "Actually, I'm a little angry."

Sure enough, this is what a normal person is like...

"But when I think about how this was most likely your arrangement, it doesn't matter."

Why!?

Xu Qi's heart tightened. He wasn't very good at resisting the advances of older sisters, especially since this was Mei... no! This was Dr. Mei!

"Dr. Mei, please..."

"Please have some self-respect?"

Xu Qi pursed his lips and didn't answer—he didn't want to say anything too harsh to Mei, so he hesitated.

"I just think that if doing this can dispel your last bit of doubt about me, that would be good, whether it's for Golden Courtyard or EarthNet."

Xu Qi breathed a sigh of relief; this was more like it.

Seeing this, Mei relaxed even more and finally leaned completely against Xu Qi, but he was still considering his words and therefore didn't notice.

Xu Qi is indeed... as easy to understand as ever.

Like Mei's, but slightly fuller red lips, she brought them close to Xu Qi's cheek... so close that she could even feel the heat of his breath.

"So, can you dispel your doubts about me now? It's rather regrettable, but there always seems to be some misunderstandings between us, interfering with our judgment of our relationship."

"is it?"

Xu Qi felt a slight itch on her cheek, and her interrupted train of thought returned—were they being too intimate? Should I have refused?

But she is Mei... wait, no, she is not Mei!

"Yes. If you are still confused, I can tell you something. No matter how similar two people may look, their inner essence will ultimately be different."

This is not only due to the difference in mental energy fluctuations under objective conditions, but also stems from one's own experiences, personality, and thinking.

Therefore, it is impossible for two people to be exactly the same. I am me, the captain of the Ptolemy, the PhD of the Earth Network, and a researcher in the field of quantum mechanics. I am Mei.

And Mei is Mei…”

At this point, Mei's eyes flickered.

"She is the person who loves you most in this world. No matter how much time and space, no matter how many destinies you face, she will come back to your side and love you. She is your one and only... Mei. Do you understand?"

After hearing this, Xu Qi fell into deep thought once again.

Mei also had a look on her face, as if she had just gotten a fish on the hook.

Originally, she only had her hand on Xu Qi's shoulder.

Now, however, she was already caressing the other's chest. If she had just been lying on the other's body, she was now embracing him.

Xu Qi's body... was very sturdy and warm.

Mei was slightly greedy, yet cautiously breathing in the other's scent.

I held back last time, but this time it's at Xu Qi's house, and he invited me over—it would be a real shame if I couldn't flirt with him properly.

And so, Mei held Xu Qi in her arms for a long time.

“I think I understand. Thank you, Dr. Mei.”

"Don't mention it. I think we can be considered friends now, right?"

Xu Qi squinted at the other person's eyes, which seemed to want to devour him, and the hands that were already ready to act—"Then can you get off me first?"

……

"not comfortable?"

"This shouldn't be a matter of comfort or discomfort."

Mei gave Xu Qi a flirtatious glance, but still obediently sat a little further away.

Xu Qi glanced at Gretchen, who was still diligently working on her problems, and sighed deeply.

“Dr. Mei, I apologize for everything I arranged before, but... as you said, you are Mei, not Mei, so please stop teasing me like this.”

Mei's big eyes were still fixed on Xu Qi, as if to say—you haven't finished speaking.

Xu Qi pursed her lips – That's all I have to say.

……

“Okay, Miss Mei is very beautiful, and her figure is… amazing. I felt very comfortable just now.”
