“Who, who would want to trade with a fickle heart like yours?!”
In the bathroom, Yu Meizi spat out in annoyance.
This guy is just eyeing her body, a total pervert!
Despite such disdain,
the corners of Yu Meizi's mouth couldn't hide her smile.
It was simply because Ling Qing not only craved her body but also cared for her.
“Honestly, if you just liked me alone, it would be fine…”
Yu Meizi pouted, unable to conceal her grievances.
……
“Monsters, a world of mixed races in chaos.”
Back at home, Ling Qing pondered over this other world.
If this entire world was made up of those he was familiar with,
then would this other world be the same?
His mind couldn't help but wander to works that had similar characteristics.
So engrossed in his thoughts,
he didn't notice Sakurajima Mai sitting on the sofa with her arms crossed.
She was originally in a bad mood.
Because Ling Qing had somehow gotten involved with that person named Miura Yu Mei at school again.
He even reminded her in the group to be careful and hinted at making a trade.
Not only did he show concern,
but he also lusted after her body.
But… he clearly reminded Katou Megumi as well.
Yet, she had waited until now without seeing Ling Qing express any concern for her.
For a moment, Sakurajima Mai felt a sense of loss.
She had prepared dinner.
Thinking of not greeting Ling Qing and not giving him a good face,
it was a small act of revenge.
But…
Things developed beyond her expectations.
Ling Qing didn't even glance at her and walked straight back to his bedroom!
“!!!”
Sakurajima Mai's heart skipped a beat.
She suddenly thought of a possibility.
“Could it be that Ling Qing… has forgotten me…”
Her face turned pale in an instant.
For the first time, she felt panic and confusion.
Upon careful reflection,
he hadn't mentioned her name in the chat group.
When he got home, he didn't even look at her, not even at the food on the dining table.
It was as if he had forgotten her entirely!
Standing up, Sakurajima Mai felt a bit unsteady and dazed.
“No! I don't want to be forgotten by him!”
She gritted her teeth.
Quickly, she ran back to her room.
In no time,
Sakurajima Mai, dressed in the bunny girl outfit from their first meeting, walked into Ling Qing's room.
What she saw was Ling Qing sitting in front of the computer, seriously staring at the screen and typing.
As expected,
he didn't even notice her entering.
She walked right up to his side.
But… Ling Qing still didn't look up at her.
Sakurajima Mai felt a moment of distraction.
“You clearly said you would always remember me, why have you forgotten me…”
Feeling dejected, Sakurajima Mai thought she might as well leave this place.
This wasn't her 'home' either.
She wanted to take one last careful look at him.
Leaning down, she slowly moved closer to Ling Qing's cheek.
It was the first time she observed Ling Qing's profile up close.
Those deep blue eyes captivated her gaze.
Her heart raced, revealing her feelings at that moment.
Sakurajima Mai finally realized: “So I have long since fallen for you.”
The notion of love at first sight, which she had once scorned, had unexpectedly happened to her.
He was clearly a big pervert who broadcasted without restraint in the group.
“Hmm?”
Her head was poked by the bunny girl ears of Mai's outfit.
Ling Qing turned to see the bunny girl Sakurajima Mai very close to him.
While admiring her sexy figure, he also felt puzzled.
“Mai, why did you suddenly put on the bunny girl outfit?”
Hearing her name called out from his mouth,
realizing Ling Qing was indeed looking at her and speaking,
Sakurajima Mai's eyes gradually widened.
With joy and nervousness, she asked, “Ling Qing-kun, can you, can you see me?”
“Of course I can see you, you…”
Ling Qing was about to say something,
but then he noticed the glistening tears welling up in the corners of Mai's eyes.
He immediately realized what was happening.
Mai thought he had forgotten her!
But in fact,
Ling Qing was just listing the names of works from his memory.
Then he was comparing and thinking about which anime had various chaotic races and monsters.
He wanted to deduce the overall picture of that other world connected to this one.
His actions seemed to have been misunderstood by Mai.
Plus, she was already sensitive to being forgotten and disappearing.
So it had evolved into the current situation.
Having analyzed the situation, Ling Qing naturally knew what to do.
He stood up and kicked the chair aside.
Clearing space,
he unceremoniously hugged Mai.
Whispering in her ear, he comforted her, “I'm sorry, I was too focused on thinking and neglected you.”
“Ling Qing-kun, that's great… you really remember me… that's so wonderful…”
With her delicate hands tightly holding onto him, Mai was already in tears.
She had truly been very scared.
The world had forgotten her.
Here, she thought she had found a home—Ling Qing, who promised never to forget her.
If even he forgot her,
her existence would completely lose its meaning.
Then… she would truly disappear from this world.
Ling Qing quietly patted her back, giving her time to slowly vent her feelings.
When her sobs turned into choked breaths,
he finally looked down and met Mai's eyes.
He assured her, “Don't worry, I promised I wouldn't forget you, and I definitely won't.”
“Mm, I believe you.”
Mai smiled through her tears.
They gazed at each other,
feeling each other's warmth and heartbeat.
The atmosphere began to develop in a sweeter direction.
Ling Qing, familiar with this, slowly leaned closer to her lips.
And Mai did not shy away.
She closed her eyes, following her heart.
The slight tremble of her eyelashes revealed her fear.
When the warm touch landed,
Ling Qing moved from testing the waters to taking a step further.
Mai gradually responded as well.
