We moved to Golden Courtyard

"But actually... I quite like it this way."

"Ok?"

"I feel like I'm becoming more and more like a human being." Ellie couldn't help but snuggle closer to Xu Qi's arms.

Xu Qi chuckled softly.

"What nonsense are you talking about? You're a human being, aren't you?"

"Yes, Xu Qi, you're right... Right now, I have love, hate, and even envy."

Even now, the guilt I feel towards Mei clashes with my love for you. But I still love you so much, so… I can only continue being with you, carrying this painful guilt.

Xu Qi couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

"You're making it sound like we're having an affair."

Alicia looked up, her innocent eyes blinking, and suddenly grinned mischievously, "Okay, Xu Qi... now you admit you wanted to have your cake and eat it too, right?"

"Both of you are my wings."

Is it really appropriate to use anime references in this situation?

Holding Ai Li tightly in his arms, Xu Qi couldn't help but chuckle.

"But isn't the ending pretty good? A world where no one gets hurt, right?"

"You got off easy."

"You call this a bargain for me...?" Xu Qi gently inhaled the fragrance of the girl's hair, lowered his head, and kissed Ai Li on the forehead.

“But you’re right, Alicia, I’m doing something insatiable.”

"It's fine that you know, I can let it go, but... have you thought about how to let Mei know about this?"

Xu Qi suddenly fell silent.

"If you can't do it, I'll do it."

Xu Qi was startled and was about to say something, but when he saw Ai Li's teasing gaze, he quickly shut his mouth and instead stroked her back in a flattering manner, speaking into Ai Li's slightly pointed earlobe.

What do you want to do?

“Girls have their own way of doing things, and I will make her accept these things, but... Xu Qi, if we do this, we will all owe Mei too much.”

……

Seeing Xu Qi remain silent, Ai Li couldn't bear it and wrapped her arms around his neck, murmuring something.

"It's my fault... I seduced you into making these mistakes, because by the time I realized how much I liked you, it was already too late."

Do you think that at this point, this mistake could still be one-sided?

"Actually, we can try a different approach."

Xu Qi raised an eyebrow, instinctively feeling that Alicia was about to say something shocking.

"Just think of this as... a rehearsal."

"A rehearsal?"

“Oh right? This is your first time dating Mei, right? There are bound to be some things you didn’t do well enough, right? In that case…” Airi looked up and said with a smile, “I’ll give you special permission to use me as your practice partner.”

……

"Alicia".

"Ok?"

Do you know what happened to the last person who did this?

"Only his head was left, lying on the boat being held by someone."

"So you knew..."

“But my Xu Qi.” Alicia reached out and stroked Xu Qi’s cheek. It was a kind of love that only humans could have, yet you could feel it so clearly in Alicia.

"You won't be irresponsible, and you'll never choose to give up, am I right?"

"You really know me well..."

But I have to say, Ellie is right.

His embrace of Airi was indeed impulsive, but once he did, Xu Qi couldn't let go. He wouldn't abandon Mei, nor would he abandon Airi.

Even if Mei can't accept it and insists on leaving, Xu Qi will do everything he can to win her back.

He is a greedy and selfish person.

"But don't worry, my little Qi."

"I feel like the way you address me is getting more and more inappropriate."

"Really? You're just imagining things. Anyway, these things take time. You can't let Mei know right now. Many things need to be cultivated gradually."

Xu Qi frowned. He was a straightforward person, and he felt that he shouldn't deceive Mei.

"This isn't deception, it's to protect her. You don't want Mei to break up with you because she can't accept all of this, do you?"

Ellie's words broke down Xu Qi's defenses.

"Anyway, leave these things to me. When the time is right, I'll let Mei know all about it."

"how about you?"

"I?"

Ellie's eyes darted around, and she said slyly, "I'll reluctantly become a mistress."

61. Chaos

Why do you always seem to be enjoying yourself so much?

"Really? I don't think so. This is the first time I've done something I know is wrong, but it's so irresistible, like..."

Xu Qi raised an eyebrow, and his large hand, which had been resting on Ai Li's back, began to wander.

He moved slowly, brushing against the silk nightgown, stroking the other's back, and finally stopping at Alicia's waist. During this time, Alicia naturally noticed Xu Qi's infidelity.

But... she only looked a little rosier, and didn't do anything else.

"It's like a well-behaved, honest child who suddenly does something wrong, but then discovers... it's actually not so bad, is it?"

"Yes...yes, right..."

The pink fairy's eyes began to wander; she wanted to stop it, but had no reason to.

After all, even Ellie herself said that she could be... Xu Qi's experimental subject.

Xu Qi moved forward a few more steps, and Alicia's already ample breasts continued to press and deform against her body.

Xu Qi could even feel two protruding foreign objects constantly tugging at his heartstrings.

"I really want to corrupt you, Alicia."

"Is there any possibility?" Ellie suddenly steadied herself and looked at Xu Qi with a provocative gaze, saying, "That innocence and naivety is just what I show to others."

"So what is the essence?"

"Maybe she's a bad woman, who knows?"

The large hand that had been resting on her waist began to move downwards again. Xu Qi had already noticed her curvaceous figure, especially her buttocks... which were truly perfect.

"Perhaps I've wanted to try this for a long time... I've experienced the innocence and beauty of humanity, so there's no reason not to experience its depravity and malice."

Xu Qi was already used to Ai Li's tone of voice, which seemed to be speaking from a non-human perspective.

He couldn't help but tease, "You? Malice? Show me what malice looks like?"

Alicia narrowed her eyes, then suddenly looked up, shifted her body upwards, and bit Xu Qi's lips hard in a fierce manner.

This sudden attack even stunned Xu Qi.

For a moment, his hands stopped moving, and he just stood there blankly as Alicia took the strange sensation called "kiss" from his lips.

Unfortunately... he was ultimately an inexperienced lamb, and even if he put on a fierce front, he couldn't hide his innocent nature.

See? The kiss, which started off fierce, became weak and limp as soon as they touched.

This was perhaps Alicia's boldest move yet. She gently bit Xu Qi's lip, then didn't know what to do next.

Xu Qi couldn't help but chuckle at his slightly bewildered expression.

If you don't know how to kiss, then don't kiss!

Let me teach you...

This might truly hold unusual significance for Xu Qi. In his own home, on his own bed, he was with Alicia… with the girl he had long harbored feelings for, but dared not pursue.

Both of them were a little carried away.

They didn't even realize that Alicia was already half-undressed.

The girl finally couldn't help but let out a soft sound.

It seems to be expressing one's satisfaction.

however……

"Buzz!~~Buzz!~~"

On the bedside table, Xu Qi's phone suddenly rang, instantly bringing the two, who were previously lost in passion, back to their senses.

They stared blankly at each other before quickly separating!

Xu Qi went to the bedside to answer the phone, while Alicia shyly put on her clothes.

To be honest... I was actually quite engrossed in the moment, so much so that I haven't quite come to my senses yet.

"Hello? Mei?"

Upon hearing the name Xu Qi mentioned, Alicia couldn't help but prick up her ears—it really was Mei… She felt like she'd been caught by the main heroine…

"Xu Qi... I miss you."

Hearing Mei's coquettish voice on the phone, Xu Qi's entire demeanor seemed to soften.

This girl has always been so straightforward. After becoming lovers, she completely forgot the meaning of "tact." But it is precisely this that touches Xu Qi's heart the most.

"Yes, I miss you too."

"You miss me but don't even call me?"

"Isn't this because I didn't want to disturb you? When I participated in this competition, my phone was always switched off."

That's because you didn't meet me back then.

That's true.

"What brings you to call me?"

"miss you."

……

What should I do? I feel like Mei has completely captured my heart.

And you? Are you in the Golden Courtyard?

Xu Qi originally wanted to say that his father had broken his leg and was at home with him.

But then she thought that if he really said that, Mei would probably be worried sick again, so she decided not to tell him and instead said, "Yeah, that's right. I'll come pick you up when you're done here."

"Yes, yes! You absolutely have to come pick me up! Otherwise... I won't go back!"

The girl's youthful words made Xu Qi smile knowingly.

"Then I won't disturb your rest anymore. Go to sleep early, bye-bye."

"Well, bye."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Qi breathed a long sigh of relief; the desire that had been aroused earlier had completely vanished.

Looking at Xu Qi's gradually clearing eyes, Alicia couldn't help but smile knowingly—indeed, Mei's importance in Xu Qi's heart was really, really high...

Sitting on the bed, Alicia hugged Xu Qi from behind and said calmly, "It was Mei who called, right?"
