"Wow~! This is life!"
After taking a big gulp of beer, Himeko's slightly tipsy face finally showed a long-lost happiness. "I could only drink purified water in the hospital. I was so bored!"
Theresa who was standing by, saw Himeko, who had just been discharged from the hospital started drinking again. She put on a stern face and lectured like an elder. "Himeko, for the sake of your health, please be more moderate. Look at me; I'm perfectly healthy."
As she spoke, Theresa sipped a mouthful of bitter melon juice, which is very healthy.
Himeko pouted. "Hmph, so boring. It turns out older people are very conservative."
"Ahem!" Theresa, who was drinking bitter melon juice, was choked by Himeko's words. She slammed the cup on the table heavily. "Damn it! What are you implying? I'll give you another chance to rephrase your words!"
"What's there to rephrase? If you don't believe me, ask them. Little guys, don't you all think so?"
However, when Theresa and Himeko turned their eyes to the group of younger people, they found that the girls had their own concerns and were too busy to pay attention to the old people.
Young people have their own troubles~
...
"Damn it, I hate it~"
A this time, Kiana, in the corner, was biting a handkerchief that had appeared from nowhere, looking resentful.
Following Kiana's line of sight, Mei approached Fu Hua with a cake.
"Class Monitor, thank you for risking your life to save me last time. I don't know how to thank you, so I made some Shenzhou pastries for you today. I hope you like them." Mei picked up a piece with chopsticks and offered it to Fu Hua.
Fu Hua, looking very shy for once, spoke, "Mei, you're too polite. It's only right to help classmates in danger…"
However, Mei continued to hold the chopsticks with a smile and said to Fu Hua, "Ah~"
Fu Hua had no choice but to open her mouth with a slightly red face.
But just then, a sudden flash of white light made Fu Hua bite into empty chopsticks; the pastry Mei had picked up had disappeared.
Meanwhile, Kiana, who was chewing something, spoke incoherently, "Wu~ Mei's snacks are delicious."
"Really, Kiana~ What are you doing?"
Although she sounded scolding, Mei's voice was full of affection. "If you want to eat, there's still plenty. Why are you trying to steal Fu Hua's?"
"Hmph, Mei's things are mine. No matter how much there is, I won't let the monitor have any! And after all, I was the one who saved Mei, so this cake should belong to me! Besides, monitor isn't on the same level as me; I defeated him easily. It seems I've already gained the strength of an S-level Valkyrie without realizing it. Hahaha!"
"Please don't be too confident, or you might end up in trouble."
Seeing Kiana's arrogance, Fu Hua decided to put her in her place. She pushed up her glasses and began to recount the details of that night.
"I remember that Kiana won with the help of the unknown Valkyrie Battlesuit and with Lin Ling and Mei's help, right? And if you really counted, Lin Ling saved Mei and you at critical moments that night. Maybe she contributed the most."
"That's right! It's all thanks to me! So why don't you repay me with your body?!"
Hearing this, Lin Ling who was engrossed in an exciting game with Bronya on the sofa suddenly interrupted proudly.
"Well..." Fu Hua was silent for a moment, then turned around and patted Kiana on the shoulder. "I take back what I said just now. Kiana, you contributed the most."
Since Lin Ling, who's head is always filled with pornographic waste arrived, Fu Hua gradually found the mischievous Kiana more cute.
"Tsk~" Lin Ling said in dissatisfaction and then continued to play games with Bronya.
Having been under the tutelage of the immortal for so long, she finally had a break today and wanted to play to her heart's content! So even if she was beaten by Bronya, she felt very happy.
"Well, I really have to thank Lin Ling." Seeing that Lin Ling appeared unhappy, Mei picked up another piece of cake and offered it to Lin Ling's mouth. "Here, eat this as my thanks."
Although her eyes were still fixed on the game screen, Lin Ling took a bite without hesitation. "Hmm~ It tastes very good, melts in the mouth. Worthy of being the Rice Cooker."
"Rice Cooker?" Mei frowned slightly. She was a little surprised and dissatisfied with Lin Ling's title for her.
"Ah!" At this moment, Kiana suddenly screamed.
The immortal who was closest to her rubbed her ears, which were in pain. "What's wrong, Kiana? You seem so surprised."
"I suddenly remembered... I ate that pair of chopsticks just now, then the class monitor ate with it, and now Lin Ling has eaten it too. Isn't this equivalent to... us kissing indirectly?!"
After this statement, everyone present fell silent. The atmosphere in the living room became awkward.
"Oh~" It was Lin Ling who broke the silence first. She showed an expression of sudden enlightenment. "So this is the real thank you. Thank you, Mei. But~ it would be better if you could add yours."
"No, no, no." Mei quickly came back to her senses from the surprise and denied it. "I-I d-didn't mean that. I just made some food for you! There is absolutely no weird idea!"
"So that's the case. In that case, I'm sorry, but if it's just this kind of thank you, it's not enough." Lin Ling continued to tease.
"Not enough? Then I'll make more?" Mei, misunderstanding Lin Ling's meaning, turned around to head to the kitchen again.
"No, no, no~" Seeing this, Lin Ling finally put down the game controller. She grabbed Mei's hand as she was about to leave, and said with deep affection, "I want to eat you more than food~"
Mei's body trembled. "Eat, eat me?!"
Bang!
"Ouch!"
After a crisp sound of skull and finger bones colliding, Lin Ling gained some Honkai resistance through the system, along with a large bump on her head.
"Ouch, it hurts, monitor! Why did you hit me again?"
"Who told you to talk nonsense? We're having a serious party today. What your thinking is prohibited!"
"So it's just today, isn't it?!" Lin Ling keenly caught a loophole in the immortal's words and pretended to be surprised. "Wow, it seems you guys had a lot of fun before I joined the school. When will you take me with you?"
"As the saying goes, if you don't hit them for three days, they'll break the roof. You think I won't hit you for three seconds... huh?!"
Just as the immortal was about to teach Lin Ling a lesson, some data was projected onto her glasses.
[A-rank Valkyrie Fu Hua, you have a new task.]
It appears very urgent to issue a task at this time.
Fu Hua didn't dare to delay and checked it carefully.
At this moment, the experienced Theresa understood what was happening through the light on Fu Hua's glasses, asked, "Is there a mission, Fu Hua?"
"Dean, don't worry."
After reading the mission details, Fu Hua smiled and explained, "It's just a very simple infiltration investigation mission, but we need to set off immediately. I'm sorry that I won't be able to finish the snacks Me made with her heart."
"Don't worry, class monitor. Lin Ling and I will eat up all the snacks Mei made."
At this point, Kiana continued to eat happily and boasted.
"It's okay, class monitor. When you come back, it's not impossible for me to be your snack~" But Lin Ling's words appeared to be more excessive.
"Hey... I'm afraid you two don't stand a chance."
The immortal grabbed Lin Ling and Kiana by the back of their collars with one hand each and dragged them away with irresistible force.
"Because it's a simple mission, I can take two trainees with me for an internship. Just follow me obediently."
"Ah~ Why did you choose me? I want to continue eating/playing!"
"Why? Think about your pitiful credits. One of you is struggling in cultural courses, and the other just entered the school and hasn't had many courses. If you don't want to delay graduation, you have to listen to me!"
"Hey!…" x2
...
After Lin Ling and the others left, Himeko, who rarely indulged in alcohol, soon fell drunk at the table, so Bronya and Theresa had to send her back to her room.
Now only Mei was left in the living room.
However, after everyone else left, Mei suddenly looked around with a strange expression on her face until she confirmed that no one was watching her.
She looked at the empty chopsticks in her hand, and a hint of complexity and entanglement flashed in her eyes...
Then she gently bit the chopsticks~
