Yes, there's no one in the corridor this time.
The firefly crept furtively to Liu Bai's door.
There was no sound or light inside; if you held your breath, you could hear even, steady breathing.
Stable.
Push~~
Fortunately, despite the incident with the Lei movie, Liu Bai hadn't locked the door yet.
Firefly doesn't have the inefficient skill of picking locks.
Wait a minute... Is Mr. Liu Bai expecting something?
Squeak~
With a careful push of the door, Liuying tiptoed into the room.
Liu Bai was wrapped in a blanket, sleeping peacefully, with an unfinished notebook next to him.
"Mr. Liu Bai~~?" Liu Ying called out softly twice.
Liu Bai moved slightly, but there was no other reaction.
Peace of mind.
Next, all we need to do is figure out how to wake Liu Bai up in a daze.
Hmm... keep him in a drowsy state, and it would be best to wake him up gently and softly, right?
"..."
Liu Ying looked at Liu Bai's sleeping face and suddenly fell silent.
Wait a minute, I've already reached the sleeping Liu Bai's side, why do I need to wake him up and hypnotize him?
Liu Ying rubbed her slightly flushed face.
Sniff sniff...
I really want to carry Mr. Liu Bai, blanket and all, back to my room...
Thinking about it carefully, Mr. Liu Bai has had a tough time today too.
Let Mr. Liu Bai sleep a little longer.
Liu Ying sat on the chair next to him, propping her head up and admiring Liu Bai's sleeping face.
A moment later, the firefly mischievously stretched out its little hand and lifted a corner of Liu Bai's quilt.
Then... as if it had its own will, the little hand struggled to climb inside.
Is it illegal to touch it a little bit?
"Well……"
Liu Bai suddenly rolled over, startling Liu Ying.
(Don't turn around!)
...There was nothing I could do. Since I had already turned around, I could only lie down next to Mr. Liu Bai and admire his sleeping face.
It's just that we had to do it!
It's just efficient!
Is it really efficient?
Liu Ying's mind flashed with efficient methods that made her feel guilty, but she tried to put these methods out of her mind and obediently lay down gently on Liu Bai's bed from the other side.
Ahhhhhh—! I can hear her breathing!
At five o'clock, I'll lie down until five o'clock and then wake Mr. Liu Bai up!
…………
"Mr. Liu Bai? Mr. Liu Bai?"
A very soft call came from Liu Bai's ear.
Ah... no, I can't open my eyes.
Is it morning already?
Liu Bai tried to lift his eyelids, but ultimately failed.
I shouldn't have eaten a midnight snack before going to sleep last night...
Liu Bai felt that his thinking was clear, but sluggish.
"Mr. Liu Bai~ Good morning~"
"..."
I was forced to get up early (I won't talk about other people's seven days), I really had to eat breakfast early and give up cooking myself.
clothes
Sigh... days when I can't stay in bed... wait a minute?
Something popped into Liu Bai's mind. In a daze, he reached into the pocket of his pajamas and felt a protrusion on a disc.
Then I pressed it directly.
Time stops.
Okay, now nobody's calling me.
You can enjoy a full, undisturbed sleep without worrying about anything.
…………
"Ah—perfect sleep." Bai yawned as he pulled back the covers. "Hmm? Liu Ying came to wake me. No wonder her voice sounded so gentle earlier... But why is she waking me from bed?"
Liu Bai glanced at Liu Ying, who was sitting on the bed maintaining the "gentle pushing" motion, with slight surprise.
Was I attacked at night?
Hmm, it doesn't seem like it?
A night raid would probably target someone who sneaks into bed, right?
The fireflies weren't in their own beds, but right next to them.
Liu Bai touched himself again... Hmm, there's nothing wrong.
Was it because it couldn't wake itself up, so it simply got closer and started calling?
...although they were quite close.
Are you planning to play some pranks on me?
No matter what, Ying's affection for her is still the highest right now.
Well, Liu Bai wasn't frightened at all by the fireflies.
After all, they weren't burly men, and everyone was wearing clothes.
If you want to be scared, learn from those terrible movies. At least Liu Bai admits that he was genuinely scared at that time.
"But it's only five o'clock... Liu Ying clearly went to bed quite late too. Well, their physical condition is different."
Liu Bai took out his time-stop pocket watch and pressed the button again.
Time resumes its flow.
Ugh, headache. Because of my stubborn sleep, I only have about twenty minutes left in my sleep timeout.
"...Please wake up—huh?"
"Good morning, fireflies."
"...Good morning?" Liu Ying's heart skipped a beat when she saw the pocket watch in Liu Bai's hand.
Wait a minute, what just happened?
Could it be that I've been hypnotized in reverse?
Why is Mr. Liu Bai holding a pocket watch? And why did he suddenly wake up?
Weren't you just sleeping?
Liu Ying nervously reached into her pocket.
...His pocket watch was still there.
"Let's go, Firefly, go cook."
Liu Bai put away the silver time-stop pocket watch, stretched his body, and got out of bed.
"Huh? Oh... I-I understand."
Wait, wait, wait! Can anyone tell her what just happened?!
Was I hypnotized?!
Chapter 133 A Bold Idea
Feeling troubled, Liu Ying followed Liu Bai downstairs.
Downstairs, Xueyi had already woken up and was sitting blankly in the living room.
"Xueyi, you're awake too?"
"Didn't sleep."
"..."
Xueyi's answer was truly unexpected.
However, considering that this person is a surrogate mother, it seems reasonable that he doesn't sleep.
Even for her, sleeping is mostly not a pleasant activity.
"The bed is too soft," Xueyi added immediately.
Would Yan'ou even care about such things?
“Indeed, a bed that’s too soft… ah, it’s nothing.” Liu Ying subconsciously wanted to reply, but then she remembered something and quickly shut up.
"If you want to change, I can help you get a hardboard bed... but we don't provide coffins here."
"It's alright, you just need to get used to it a little." Xueyi shook her head.
[Snowy Clothes Affection Level: 30]
Since Xueyi had said so, Liu Bai nodded indifferently and started preparing breakfast with Liuying.
After watching for a while, Xueyi also stepped forward to lend a hand.
Two hours later, more and more people got up, and many more people came to help in the kitchen.
It seems like Ying is the only one in the family who can't cook at all...
Fortunately, Liu Bai had considered this situation when he bought the house, so the kitchen space did not feel cramped.
"She can even cook." Fox Palace looked at Cocolia, who was stir-frying vegetables next to her. "Hmm... if I didn't know she came from a gashapon machine, I would have thought she was that witch."
Yesterday, some people gathered around Cocolia to hear her story, while others wanted to confirm her identity—after all, the other Cocolia is no nobody.
"Hmm? Is something the matter, Miss Kitsuri?" Cocolia seemed to sense a gaze and looked up at Kitsuri.
"I just didn't expect you to be such a good cook," Fox Palace casually remarked after being discovered. "I thought someone like you would never be suited for the kitchen."
"This... would you call it knowing how? I guess I practiced it back in school with a small pot in my dorm?"
Cocolia clearly hadn't expected Fox Prince to ask such a question.
However, Fox Palace then looked away.
She also knew another Cocolia, whom Schicksal called the "Witch," but in reality... she was alright?
She's a bit older than Cocolia, but their personalities are about the same.
This person... has simply suppressed their assertive personality.
