[This day, you reconciled with the Demon King]
[You and Senior Sister Fufu had agreed to cook together at Amber Hall. It's clean, hygienic, and saves money, though you don't see the point of saving for the Demon King]
[The Demon King suggested eating in his room afterwards since it has an office area and is more spacious]
[You joked that the Demon King is getting weirder, inviting you alone to his room]
[The Demon King dismissed your thoughts, saying Senior Sister Fufu would be there with you]
[You realized it made sense but stubbornly insisted on going to your room]
[After saying that, you regretted it, but after so thought, you felt reassured with Senior Sister Fufu around, the Demon King couldn't cause trouble]
[The Demon King called you scum, a big idiot, a pervert with a mind full of vulgar thoughts]
[You told him not to mimic you, but he didn't listen]
[You decided that during dinner, you'd make more green vegetables]
[You plan to keep serving vegetables to Fufu, a subtle hint, your last effort for Senior Sister Fufu]
[The day before dinner, you ran into Senior Sister Laura]
[As soon as you walked over, a strong sll of smoke surrounded her, and Senior Sister Laura sheepishly extinguished her cigarette]
The scene unfolds.
After Laura snuffed out the cigarette, she said:
"Sorry, the smoke slls bad, doesn't it?"
Rephya nodded and said, "I don't like slling smoke, but didn't you always avoid smoking where everyone gathers?"
Laura smiled and said, "Isn't that because I'm afraid you'll all dislike ?"
Rephya glanced into Laura's ashtray and counted the butts. Judging by the number, it was nearly a pack.
She turned to see a pocket watch placed on the balcony.
"Senior Sister Laura, your pocket watch, be careful not to let it drop."
Xiaolu handed over the pocket watch, wanting to check the ti as well.
"Huh? Senior Sister, is your pocket watch broken?"
It was at least past five in the afternoon.
But the watch hands pointed to two o'clock.
The ti discrepancy was too big.
Laura took the pocket watch and said:
"The hour hand is broken; only the minute and second hands work now."
Laura instinctively wanted to take another cigarette from the pack but ultimately restrained herself from lighting it.
[Leaving the Association, you t Senior Sister Lilith, who asked where Laura was. You told her Senior Sister Laura was outside smoking]
[The President frowned, saying Laura's smoking frequency had increased over the past two years]
[You were curious and asked President Lilith about the situation]
[Lilith told you that two years ago, Laura barely smoked. But after so events, she needed cigarettes to calm down]
[You were very curious about what happened two years ago, but Lilith told you to ask Senior Sister Laura yourself if you wanted to know]
[You found it troubleso and didn't go to ask]
[You felt like you had forgotten sothing until the next day when you realized you hadn't inford Sister Fufu in advance]
[You anxiously called Senior Sister Fufu to invite her, only to learn she had already gone ho to visit her parents]
[You felt like the sky was falling and chose:]
["Senior, we're not eting."]
Simulation unfolds.
Chloe didn't want to listen.
Chloe gave Rephya two punches.
Rephya was on the verge of tears.
Why?
Why did it turn out this way,
Everything was already planned out, yet it ended before it even began.
"Huh, Rephya, did you want to join you in cooking today? How about we wait until I get back?"
On the other end of the phone, Fufu's voice was clear and bright.
Rephya bashfully said:
"No worries, Senior Sister, you're ho, so don't worry about it. Just rest well at ho."
Rephya hung up the phone with a headache, and then soone knocked on the door.
"Xiaolu, co out and get your stuff. When is Sister Fufu coming?"
The Little Deer Girl felt like she was going to die.
She started thinking about calling friends over.
But thinking about it, she didn't know who to call.
Though familiar, calling soone felt odd.
Soone familiar, Fratiss, had been taken out for training by her ntor.
Senior Sister Teresa hadn't even co to the Extre Association in the past two days, seemingly dealing with matters related to the Night Thorn Association.
Aisha... she worried Aisha would just make it worse if she ca in.
Might even inadvertently drag her into trouble.
Senior Sister Laura and the others?
The relationship wasn't quite there yet.
Oh, my goodness, why has it co to this?
Originally intended to play a prank on the senior, I've ended up being pranked myself?
She awkwardly opened the door, intending to tell the senior, "Not today."
Instead, the senior had brought a lot of stuff over, moving it into the kitchen while saying:
"Where's Sister Fufu? Call her over to help cook; you just wait and eat."
Chloe knows Fufu is good at cooking.
As for himself, that's even less in question.
Not that Ke is any kind of dosticated husband.
Originally, his cooking was limited to rice, fried eggs with tomatoes, and hot pot.
But he's been married more than once.
So, he couldn't possibly not cook a single al after marriage, right?
So, after several life simulations, his cooking skills visibly skyrocketed.
Of course, knowing how to cook is one thing.
Whether he is willing to is another.
He actually doesn't like getting his hands greasy, but cooking, especially at, almost always involves that.
Rephya stood awkwardly there, not daring to speak for a long ti.
Chloe sensed sothing was wrong, turned around suspiciously, and asked:
"What's going on? Xiaolu, why aren't you saying anything?"
"Ahem~ Let tell you so good news, Senior."
"Hmm?"
"Senior Sister Fufu went ho today."
"..."
Chloe, who was about to start cutting the at, stopped:
"Would Sister Fufu flake?"
"No, actually, it's because I didn't tell her in ti. I asked if she was free today..." Xiaolu looked a bit awkward. "After confirming she was free, I forgot to actually set a ti."
Rephya surely couldn't say to Chloe:
"Ah, I was going to offer Senior Sister Fufu so green vegetables to subtly hint at sothing, then simulate how it would go in person, and ended up forgetting to actually invite her?"
"So where did she go?"
"She went ho." Rephya looked quite awkward. "So what are we supposed to do now?"
Chloe clutched her chest with both hands, looking terrified, and said:
"Abigail went out for training too. Xiaolu, did you plan this all along, you seem eager for sothing, aren't you?"
Originally, he was a bit worried, Xiaolu set him up.
Now he was sowhat relieved.
But the atmosphere suddenly beca awkward.
Chloe glanced at the food, clearly prepared for more than three people.
Originally thought it wouldn't matter if so was left over, but now with just two people, it was a bit too much.
Chloe gave Xiaolu a sowhat exasperated look and said:
"I'll do it myself, you wait outside."
Better to rely on himself than Xiaolu.
From his experience in simulations, every year the school organized outings for students to cook for themselves, and seventy percent couldn't even cut at properly.
Ask them to defeat so Maze Monsters or Demons, and they were pretty good at that.
But cutting at was almost laughable.
Cooking?
There weren't many who could do it well.
Maybe their cooking talents all went into cooking people up instead.
Anyway, from mory, there were quite a few upset stomachs every trip.
Nothing else.
Food wasn't cooked thoroughly.
Xiaolu...
It's not like he despises Xiaolu.
But Rephya, wandering all those years, probably having als on and off.
The chance to get decent ingredients and cook was likely very rare.
Chloe is rather particular with food.
If it tastes awful, he'd prefer to cook himself.
...After dinner...
"I'm... I'm full!" Rephya said dizzily.
Chloe looked at the wine bottle Rephya had taken. After eating and drinking, Xiaolu hugged the bottle and gulped down a few more swigs.
Evidently with a large capacity to tolerate alcohol.
As for Chloe.
Chloe just casually took a couple of sips.
"Rephya, drink less, you're almost drunk."
"No." Xiaolu rolled around under her bed, saying, "I feel sick if I don't drink."
Chloe sighed helplessly: "You don't even like drinking."
"Drinking, drinking isn't about liking it."
"Then why drink?"
Xiaolu pitifully hugged the bottle and said:
"If I don't drink, sitting with you, Senior, feels awkward."
Chloe gave a soft snort and said:
"If you feel awkward, why didn't you do sothing sooner?"
"You're scolding again!"
"Yes, I am scolding. Hey, stop drinking!"
"Waaah, no more alcohol, Senior, I want..."
"What's your next absurd request?"
"Another bottle."
"I'd rather you drink yourself to death."
"You're scolding . You used to spoil like Sister Fufu."
Chloe felt helpless.
Rephya had been rather wary of him lately.
Now her innocent deanor couldn't be hidden anymore, clearly really drunk.
"Alright, alright, one last bottle, I'll drink with you, okay?"
"I want a whole bottle."
"Say that again."
"Waaah, I'll behave, promise."
"Hmph..."
Chloe didn't say a word, heading to the bar area to fetch more wine.
He checked the stock, most were high in alcohol. After a while, he found a low-alcohol lychee wine.
When he returned, Xiaolu was already starry-eyed, lying groggily by the bedhead.
Seeing Chloe co over, Xiaolu made a small noise, cutely waving at him saying:
"Senior, co here, hurry up..."
Chloe walked up, then his collar was grabbed by Xiaolu, pulling him in front of her face and said:
"I, I wanted to offer Senior a dish today to hint, because you're so an... "
"Yes, I'm an." Chloe thought, her speech is already unclear, seriously drunk.
"But the senior went ho, waaah."
"Wipe your nose."
"I'm not snotty!"
"Alright, alright, I'll wipe it for you."
"...I wanted to vent for Senior Sister Fufu, but Senior, you're so good to , why do you make things difficult for ."
"Okay, okay, I know our Xiaolu is upset."
"Hmph, as long as you know, I'm aweso, it's always you bullying ..."
"Yes, Xiaolu is super aweso."
"Hahaha." Rephya only felt dizzy, after chugging wildly, the drunkenness washed over her.
She instinctively glanced at Chloe.
Seeing Chloe pouring lychee wine, sitting and drinking by himself.
Whether it was the alcohol taking effect, Rephya seed about to lose it.
Looking at Senior Chloe, she thought of those absurd scenes she "accidentally" witnessed before.
"Should I ask him?"
This thought popped in her mind, but her mouth reacted faster than her brain:
"Senior, is such a thing really enjoyable for guys? I, I've actually seen it a few tis, you, you looked like a beast then."
