We moved to Golden Courtyard

"...And what about you? Do you like me?"

Before Xu Qi could answer, Delta quickly said, "Don't try to brush me off! That day... I suspect that your statement about wanting to take responsibility for me was also a result of your impulsiveness!"

Xu Qi blinked, looking somewhat innocent.

He glanced at his arm around Delta, and Delta turned her head in the same direction as Xu Qi's gaze.

Ok……

"You really are lusting after my body!"

Seeing Delta's face turn red with anxiety, Xu Qi quickly said, "Oh dear, don't worry... It wasn't like this before, was it?"

Where did my handsome Delta senior go? Why has he become so insecure since we started dating?

Delta lowered his head and muttered softly, "How can I be confident about this..."

"What did you say?"

"nothing!"

Delta turned her head away angrily. It would have been fine if they hadn't gotten together, but after they actually did, and learned about Xu Qi's life, she discovered…

The worlds we live in are like two different worlds.

Perhaps only in this company, in this Alahatto Seed studio, can they truly live in the same world.

Compared to Xu Qi, everything about myself seemed so ordinary.

Why...why did he fall for me?

Delta wasn't a little girl; she was long past the age of believing in Cinderella fairy tales. It seemed that aside from helping the other person at work, she was truly useless.

What does he like about himself?

The only thing Delta could think of was her decent looks and her petite, loli-like body.

I've heard that some men just like this type of woman.

So it's probably because you're craving something in your body...

Xu Qi looked at Delta, whose brows were furrowed, and his intuition told him that the girl was definitely overthinking things.

Delta.

"Ok?"

With an instinctive response, the little girl looked up in confusion, only to feel her lips being kissed.

"Well!"

Her frail body was held tightly by Xu Qi, so much so that her instinctive attempts to struggle were futile. She could only passively accept it all.

Although... I'm not really against it.

And they had kissed before.

Isn't it normal for lovers to do this kind of thing?

I'm his girlfriend, so even a kiss from him... um! Wait a minute!?

Delta's jaw was suddenly pried open, and a thick tongue wrapped around her delicate, clove-like tongue.

"Ugh!... Waaah!"

This has never happened before...! So kissing involves intertwining your tongues? Oh right, I think this is called...

A wet kiss?

How strange, I feel... my body is going to go limp.

She already felt comfortable just from their lips touching before, but could kissing really feel even more comfortable?

And Xu Qi... is really skilled at it...

Even when he did respond, he seemed rather green and awkward.

It took Xu Qi a long time before he finally released Delta's small lips.

Seeing the other person's dazed look, he couldn't help but chuckle and said, "No matter what I say now, you'll probably feel like I'm just giving you the runaround."

But I have to tell you that when you told me that day—'Liking you is my own business'—I really felt...

Delta, you're incredibly cool! And I also have to correct something: you've never been ordinary, senior. You might not even realize how outstanding you are, so...

Be confident! Everything will be alright, look, even Lilia. You used to think your sister had a terminal illness, but now things are looking up, aren't they?

So please stop carrying so much burden in your heart! Wasn't the previous Delta great? Handsome! Reliable! He had that senior-like aura!

……

Delta lowered his head and said softly, "The way you're talking... it feels like you're describing me as a man? Do you consider me a brother?"

"Um...maybe?"

"You, male ketone... you even like your own brother."

"Since Delta is a sweet and soft girl, it seems this brother is probably not a good match. He should be my woman instead."

"Pfft!" This sentence undoubtedly made Delta laugh. She raised her head again, her eyes still filled with a bit of caution, and looked at Xu Qi expectantly.

"You... really think so?"

"I'll prove it to you."

"Proof? What kind of proof do you want?"

That's my problem.

"Oh..." Delta turned her head away, her cheeks suddenly flushing red, and said softly, "Then... do you still want to continue? Like... a kiss..."

665. I probably didn't have a choice either.

"So...do you still want to continue? Like...kiss."

God knows how much courage Delta mustered to say those words.

Can you imagine? That handsome Delta senior would also show such a shy expression and say to you—"Want to continue? Kiss me..."

There's absolutely no reason to refuse...

So Xu Qi lowered his head and went to kiss Delta's lips again.

This feels a bit different from Theresa. Theresa is soft and gentle, and because girls are shy, she rarely chooses to respond to you.

But Delta—the dashing Delta senior—even if she was so embarrassed she wanted to disappear into a crack in the ground, she still had to show her cool side.

We must not let Xu Qi look down on us!

"So handsome, Delta-senpai..." and continued kissing and nibbling.

If it were Delta, I could definitely hug and kiss her all day long.

In short, by the time the girl opened the office door and walked out, a long time had passed.

She came in with a calm expression, even a hint of melancholy, but when she left, her cheeks were flushed, making people wonder—was Delta wearing makeup today?

How could it be... so beautiful?

Delta's matter cannot be rushed; it must be done step by step.

The focus should be on the Arlene sisters, just as Mei said.

How about we take them out for some fun? We could also invite Eden along, and say... we're not very good at taking care of kids and need some help.

Holy crap! I'm a genius, isn't this killing two birds with one stone?

Xu Qi should applaud himself.

Just when Xu Qi was feeling like everything was going perfectly, the phone rang. He took out his phone and saw—Su?

Why would the doctor call me at this time...?

Subconsciously, Xu Qi felt a tightness in his chest and had some bad thoughts.

"Hello? Doctor, what's wrong?"

"Xu Qi, come back with Delta immediately. Professor Möbius told me that Lilia's condition is showing signs of worsening rapidly, possibly..."

Surgery is needed immediately!

That's life; it won't soften its heart just because you cry.

He'll just slap you again without a second thought, never caring whether you can take it or not.

Xu Qi hung up the phone. Was there anything else he needed to consider right now? The only thing he could think about was how to calm Delta down!

······

In Mebius's sterile room, Su had already changed into his surgical gown and was leading his surgical team in pre-operative preparations.

However, the members of the surgical team seemed a bit strange.

After all, this was the first time Su had ever performed a surgery with all the collaborators being robots.

No matter how many times Sue met these Kleins, he couldn't help but marvel at how magical the chemistry between Velvet and Möbius was.

At that moment, a synthesized electronic voice rang out in the room.

"Su, are you ready? We'll start the surgery promptly at 14:30 PM."

"Understood, Professor."

Su took a deep breath—Mebius's surgical plan seemed wildly imaginative, requiring many things that even he had never seen before!

As a surgeon at the forefront of medicine, Sue had his own understanding of the field of biology, but when these understandings were presented to Möbius…

He felt like a toddler learning to walk.

Therefore, this surgery was naturally a huge source of stress for him.

However... we cannot afford to fail!

Not for any other reason.

She was a patient, and he was a doctor, so he had to do everything he could to save her life—it was that simple.

At this moment, in the sterile room, Lilia was lying quietly on the hospital bed, her eyes closed, her long sky-blue hair cascading down her back, making her look like a sleeping beauty.

Before she was taken inside, Klein had already given her general anesthesia. Möbius estimated that the surgery would take 5 hours, while the anesthesia time was controlled to 6 hours.

If the time limit is exceeded, it means that Su has encountered a more serious situation than expected.

"professor."

Mebius turned his head and saw that Xu Qi had come in alone, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Luckily, you didn't foolishly bring Delta in directly."

Xu Qi forced a smile. He walked to the professor's side and saw Lilia sleeping on the monitor, as well as Sue who was preparing.

There were also a bunch of exponential curves that he couldn't understand at all.

"What's the situation now? How is Lilia?"

“The situation isn’t very good,” Mebius shook his head. “It’s ten days earlier than the scheduled surgery date, and Lilia’s preoperative preparations haven’t been fully completed.”

"How could it have suddenly worsened?"

Mebius fell into a rare silence, took a deep breath, and looked unusually serious.

"It was my mistake. I'll tell you the details later. If the surgery is unsuccessful... I will take responsibility for Lilia's life."

Xu Qi was stunned. He hugged Mebius tightly and whispered in her ear, "I won't let you bear this alone, Professor... I will always be with you."

"Xu Qi..."

After releasing Möbius, Xu Qi didn't say anything more, only giving the professor one last sentence before leaving.

"I understand the specifics, Professor... Just do your best."

"boom."

As the door closed, Mebius knew that Xu Qi didn't want to put too much pressure on her, though she herself found it strange.
