“Did you have fun tonight?”
Night.
The room was pitch black.
Moonlight streamed through the balcony, spilling into the room and through the corner of a curtain fluttering in the breeze. The cool, quiet moonlight, for some reason, felt peaceful.
It was time to turn off the lights and sleep.
In this room with only the two of them, on the bed,薙切绘里奈 smiled and asked.
“Yes, I had a lot of fun. Playing with Alice-neesan was really interesting.”
“Alice-neesan, huh…”
“But I like Eri-neesan more.”
Those words truly brought joy.
薙切绘里奈 was very close to him, close enough to feel his body heat and smell his sweet breath.
She laughed at this.
“The moon outside is beautiful, you can see it from here. Mingjing-kun, do you want to switch places with me?”
“No, the moon is nothing special.”
Fang Mingjing shook his head.
He stared at her gentle expression with bright eyes, suddenly feeling reluctant to let her go.
Because he was planning to leave tomorrow.
Today was the last night of the Totsuki summer training camp, and counting the day he stayed at 薙切绘里奈’s house, it had already been a week.
“Eri-neesan, I want to come over and play again.”
“Really?” Her tone was a little delighted.
“Mhm.”
“Then I’ll wait for you whenever you want.”
薙切绘里奈 laughed sincerely, “You can come over anytime, as long as you want to, Mingjing-kun.”
As she said this, the girl thought about the new function that appeared after the chat group updated.
It said that if you traveled to the same world ten times, you could permanently open the channel to that world. You could travel there anytime, anywhere, without needing points…
薙切绘里奈 couldn’t help but feel her heart flutter.
If Mingjing-kun had that permanent channel…
“Mingjing-kun, how about I give you all my points?”
“Eh?”
“Then you can come over more times, okay?”
“I’ll come over often, but I don’t need the points.”
Xiao Shengzi showed a sweet smile.
Because he liked Eri-neesan so much, he snuggled closer to the girl, his delicate face full of dependence, like a scene from a painting.
Being so close to him, her heart couldn’t help but beat faster.
With him so close, he’d definitely be able to hear her heartbeat, right?
But薙切绘里奈 had no intention of hiding it.
She laughed lightly, her beautiful eyes full of indulgence.
“So, Mingjing-kun, do you like cats or dogs?”
“Huh? I like cats.” Mingjing naturally liked cats since he had one at home.
“Meow～”
The girl imitated a cat’s meow with her sweet voice.
Mingjing was stunned for a moment. Looking at him, 薙切绘里奈’s beautiful face was playful.
“… Uh.” Realizing, Xiao Shengzi’s eyes narrowed into cute crescent moons, “Then what does Eri-neesan like?”
“I like Mingjing-kun.”
“I’m asking if you like cats or dogs.”
“I know, but I just like Mingjing-kun.”
The blatant foul answer made Fang Mingjing pout.
So cute…
The girl laughed in her heart.
At this moment, her heartbeat seemed to quicken again.
After trying to calm down a little, she asked softly, “Mingjing-kun, do you remember what I said to you this morning?”
“Yes, is it the game one?”
“Yes.”
Her heartbeat became uncontrollable again.
Fang Mingjing felt puzzled.
He was curious about what they were going to play. After all, it was already late at night. Although it wasn’t too late yet, it was definitely past bedtime.
“Are we going to play a role-playing game with Eri-neesan?”
Even without pressing her chest, 薙切绘里奈 could feel her heart beating rapidly. Her voice was soft and gentle.
Because Mingjing-kun was going to leave tomorrow, Eri-neesan wanted to get closer to him before he left.
Over the past few days, she had already figured out that Mingjing-kun really liked to be spoiled…
Fang Mingjing’s eyes lit up.
Role-playing?
RPG game?
He had always liked that type of game, especially the kind where the hero defeats the demon king and becomes the savior of the world.
“Yeah, I want to play.”
“Then let’s start now?”
“Okay, should I go grab the game console or the computer?” He was excited.
“… It’s not that kind of game, it’s just us two.”
“Us?”
“Mhm. Mingjing-kun, you can be a baby first?”
