We moved to Golden Courtyard

"Don't you find it interesting? In the Golden Courtyard, Eden has always considered himself the head of the family, especially towards you, Xu Qi. But now... well, I'm looking forward to seeing Eden's expression when he meets his aunt."

Xu Qi squinted – When did Sister Ying become so wicked?

"One who stays near vermilion gets stained red, and one who stays near ink gets stained black."

Xu Qi grinned and said, "So you've been corrupted by me, haven't you?"

Mebius added dismissively, "Don't you have any self-awareness?"

Xu Qi remained expressionless and flipped over to pin Mebius down.

Snake remained completely unfazed, instead giving Xu Qi a defiant glance.

"Are you sure you can handle it? Don't finish before I'm even satisfied."

My snake, you're really something else to be so stubborn.

"You'll be begging for mercy soon enough."

"Hehe, guinea pigs are just good at showing off... Hmm! Humph... That's all they've got."

Sakura lay to the side, watching as Mebius began to beg for mercy in just a short while, and suddenly felt that her previous confrontation with Mebius had been rather foolish.

This stupid snake is all talk and no action.

573. How could you lay a hand on such a young girl?!

The next day at noon, Eden saw his extended Lincoln packed full of girls. If some of them hadn't been petite, there might have been an awkward situation where there weren't enough seats.

Then she looked at Xu Qi, who was sitting in the middle.

To be honest, even Xu Qi didn't expect this kind of situation to occur.

He just said it casually last night.

"My parents would like to invite you to our house for dinner. Who wants to come?"

Actually, it was just a casual remark; Xu Qi had already decided on his choice in his mind.

It's nothing more than his girlfriends.

Aside from Kiana not being able to go, the only other person who has to go is Theresa!

What? You think you can escape Xu Qi's notice now that you've caught his eye?

But as it turned out, I don't know how things were handled afterwards, anyway...

That night, all the girls in the Golden Courtyard eagerly raised their hands, saying, "I want to go! I want to go!"

Among them, the cats were the loudest.

She might not necessarily want to meet Xu Qi's parents, but she definitely wanted to join in the fun.

What kind of bizarre things are these...?

And in the end, Kiana caught up.

Xu Qi had become so accustomed to a peaceful life that, apart from rescuing Kafka and the others during the Eleventh Day, he hadn't encountered much danger, to the point that he had almost forgotten...

She also has a belt that allows her to carry Kiana's spiritual power with her.

Of course, it doesn't matter if Xu Qi doesn't put Kiana in his belt; at worst, he'll just be carrying a round, chubby Klein robot home.

However, considering the elderly couple's capacity to cope, if they feel...

She even transcended biological species and fell in love with a robot. Crowdfunding group: 456127940

I might be taken to No. 600 Wanping South Road today—the most famous mental hospital in Shanghai.

So much so that even Gretchen got into the car in high spirits.

The little girl probably thought it was a spring outing...

Xu Qi was already starting to worry about how to explain Greta's situation to her parents.

The only thing that gave Xu Qi a little comfort was that Fu Xian'er chose to stay in the Golden Courtyard.

Then the four men also weren't interested in joining in the fun.

This is one of the few consolations.

Mei was sitting next to Xu Qi, chuckling to herself.

"Now that's great, your uncle and aunt are probably going to start questioning their existence."

"I'm starting to question the meaning of life..."

Eden said to Kevin, "Then I'll leave the courtyard to you."

"Well, don't worry."

The car door closed, and Anna asked, "Can we leave now, Miss Eden?"

Eden closed the door and glanced at Xu Qi, whose face was ashen. Even she couldn't help but chuckle.

"Xu Qi, there are so many of us... is your house big enough?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Qi glanced at the girls in the car. Ai Li was busy playing cat's cradle with Fu Hua. He wondered when she had learned to play that game.

Snake was enjoying wine with Sakura, while Dr. Mei was chatting with Wilvi, seemingly discussing some profound academic issues.

Aponia sat next to Greta, watching little Greta, Theresa, and the cat play.

Durandal, Rita, and Bronya are chatting together. Is this a combination of best friends and love rivals?

Then came Eden, who bent down and walked over, sitting down next to her just like Mei.

However, the older sister will never cling to him like a little girl.

Hmm... especially when she saw Eden walking towards her, Mei hugged him even tighter—it felt so good.

"It's over 100 square meters, enough to accommodate about ten people."

Eden's expression was a little strange—about ten... including Kiana, that's a total of 16 people.

Xu Qi, you've really brought this upon yourself...

"Anna's house, let's go."

"Yes, young master."

Oh, we forgot Anna, who was in charge of driving. Most importantly, we don't know if Xu Qi is having affairs with other women besides these girls.

Ah... it's all because I didn't do a good job as the older sister.

Mei's perspective on problems is quite unique.

She blinked and first kicked out Little Greta, which meant that, including me, there were a total of 15 girls who had feelings for Xu Qi or were already in a relationship with him.

And they... are all inferior to me!

Thinking of this, Mei glanced at Xu Qi again.

Xu Qi asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

Mei scoffed – Ha! Men… even Xu Qi would be pinned down by me!

Mei is heaven!

······

Thus, some people felt somewhat nervous, some were used to it, and others were simply there to have fun.

More than ten girls with different thoughts followed Xu Qi to his home.

To be honest, when Lin Lai heard the doorbell and came out to open the door...

She suddenly felt that... her entire worldview, values, and philosophy of life, which she had built up in this new era—had completely collapsed...

Especially when Gretchen greeted Lin Lai with a big smile, saying, "Hello, Auntie!"

Lin Lai almost fainted!

"Am I a grandma now?"

Startled, Xu Qi hurriedly explained, "Mom! Mom! No! No!"

As she spoke, Xu Qi brought Gretchen over and said with a forced smile, "This is someone else's child who is staying with us. She's still in junior high school, and I've always treated her like a little sister."

When my younger sister came to visit...

Fu Hua subconsciously turned her head to look at Xu Qi—oh, she was talking about Gretchen, then it's alright.

Greta stared at the woman in front of her with great curiosity, after all... this was Xu Qi's mother...

Lin Lai also breathed a sigh of relief.

He glared at Xu Qi and said, "You brat... didn't you even tell me beforehand? So, they're not all your girlfriends after all?"

"Yes! Yes! Mom! You're so smart!"

As she was speaking, she saw Durandal enter the room, so she took her hand and led her to Lin Lai, introducing her: "This is Durandal, a friend of Miss Rita. She's just here as a guest today."

We don't have any special relationship!

Upon hearing this, Yulandel immediately understood and said, "Auntie, Xu Qi and I are just friends, you don't need to overthink it."

"Oh... friend..."

Lin Lai glanced at the two hands that were still clasped together.

Upon seeing this, Durandal immediately broke free from Xu Qi's grasp, a few awkward smiles on her face.

Xu Qi also realized what was happening, his face flushed with embarrassment. He didn't know whether to look at Yulandel or his own mother...

Lin Lai glanced at the blonde, blue-eyed young woman in front of her—a foreigner…but she was so beautiful!

He immediately nodded in satisfaction – “Okay, friend, friend.”

You simply don't believe it!

After that, every girl would greet Lin Lai when she entered the room.

People like Mei and the others are already quite familiar with each other.

Those who came for the first time, like older sisters such as Bronya and Eden, naturally acted with grace and poise.

But like Theresa…

The little girl couldn't hide her feelings at all; nervous and even a little stammering, she said, "Hello...Auntie..."

This time, Lin Lai looked at her son as if he were a criminal!

574. Fifteen of them, could they all be your girlfriends?

"Wait a minute! Mom! Calm down, calm down, let me explain first."

Xu Qi pulled Theresa close and hugged her.

The visual impact of this scene almost triggered Lin Lai's high blood pressure!

A tall man, over 1.8 meters tall, was holding a little girl who was only about 1.4 meters tall. Although they didn't make any deliberate gestures, their intimacy was obvious to anyone.

"Mom, her name is Theresa. She's just a bit petite. Actually, she's in her early twenties. She's a special police officer in Shanghai, and also... my girlfriend."

Theresa held her breath, and her face instantly turned red!

She hurriedly looked up at Xu Qi, about to say arrogantly, "Who's your girlfriend! You haven't even confessed to me yet, and I haven't agreed to date you!"

But then she remembered that they were in front of Xu Qi's mother...

He was speechless.

“We’ve known each other for a long time. Do you remember when I told you I met a friend online? It was actually Theresa. I always thought of her as a brother, but I only found out after we met in person…”

"She's such a lovely girl."

Lin Lai breathed a sigh of relief, then exclaimed in realization, "Oh, so you're Theresa!"

Theresa lowered her head shyly, clutching her skirt with both hands.

Today, in order to meet Xu Qi's parents, she specially changed into a brand new white dress, which was very bright and beautiful, and she was dressed up as exquisitely as a porcelain doll.

Lin Lai hesitated and said, "You..."
