In Jing Liuli's private room, several sparkling, expensive stage outfits were casually tossed onto the sofa.
She was hugging her data terminal, wearing pajamas, and rolling around on the bed like a caterpillar, her small, delicate feet happily dangling in the air.
The screen of the terminal clearly showed a photo of a Star Rail train sent by Caroline.
The background featured flashing Star Rail indicator lights, and the caption read: 'Departed, don't worry.'
It ant she hadn't stood Jing Liuli up and was keeping her promise.
"Yay! Caroline is finally coming!"
Jing Liuli hugged the data terminal, her chin buried completely in her favorite pillow, her eyes curved into crescents as she clearly thought of sothing happy.
"Hmph, when Caroline gets here, let's see if that Tendo guy still dares to steal my soda, Jie jie jie!"
She laughed a few tis like a villain, but accidentally choked on her own laughter. She imdiately sat up in a fit of coughing, rubbing her slightly sore throat.
It seed being a villain wasn't sothing just anyone could pull off.
Just as Jing Liuli's 'villain experience card' expired, a voice, slightly scolding yet affectionate, ca from the doorway.
"Liuli, I've told you many tis, as a proper lady, even in private, you should try your best to maintain an elegant image."
"You're old enough now, why are you still rolling around in bed?"
Hearing the familiar voice, Jing Liuli suddenly looked up at the door.
She saw an elegant lady in a wine-red gown leaning against the door fra, a goldfinch mask covering half her face, a shallow smile playing on her lips.
However, what was more alarming was i Ling following behind her.
This typically ice-cold Catastrophe-level powerhouse was now slightly bowing, her attitude incredibly respectful.
This gesture clearly implied to everyone that the noblewoman's identity was extraordinary.
Seeing the visitor, Jing Liuli imdiately dropped the data terminal, jumped off the bed barefoot, and pounced into the noblewoman's arms like a kitten. She buried her head into the woman's imposing chest, rubbing back and forth, openly acting spoiled.
"Aunt Liu, what took you so long! I thought you were going to miss my concert!"
Liu Yao gently stroked her ssy, light purple hair and smiled. "How could I possibly miss our little princess's important day?"
She removed her glove and gently pinched Jing Liuli's chubby cheek.
"Liuli, how are your preparations going? I've received news that certain stubborn old things are not exactly hoping to see you succeed in your breakthrough."
"After all, the item you plan to use this ti is incredibly valuable, even to us."
Hearing this, Jing Liuli raised her chin, confidence beaming in her eyes. "They can't stop ! Because this ti, I've invited a super powerful helper!"
"Oh?"
Liu Yao raised an eyebrow with a playful half-smile, her eyes behind the mask flashing with amusent.
"That would be Tendo, wouldn't it? When Dragon invited to visit his Stars Project a few years ago, I was deeply impressed by that child. He truly is an interesting little fellow with infinite possibilities."
Pausing here, Liu Yao suddenly leaned closer to Jing Liuli's ear, her warm breath brushing against the girl's delicate earlobe. She asked curiously in a voice only the two of them could hear, "Liuli, what do you think of that child, Tendo?"
At this question, Jing Liuli's face instantly flushed red. Like a kitten whose secret was discovered, she stamred for a long ti before replying.
"What do I think... He's, he's just okay! He's bossy and always tries to steal my snacks! Not a gentleman at all!"
Although Jing Liuli's words were full of complaints about Tendo, her slightly shy eyes and reddened earlobes clearly betrayed her true feelings.
As a woman with experience, Liu Yao naturally saw through Jing Liuli's little secret imdiately.
But she didn't expose her directly. Instead, she asked in a half-joking tone, "Is that so? But why did a certain soone not send a single ssage after eting him?"
"You used to send good morning and good night ssages every day."
Hearing this, Jing Liuli imdiately buried her head back into Liu Yao's chest, choosing to play the ostrich and completely avoid the question.
Jing Liuli played the ostrich, but the dinsional viewers wouldn't let this entertaining scene go.
'Aunt Liu knows how to assist! That question was perfectly tid!'
'Liuli's face is so red it's almost smoking! If that's not love, what is?'
'Could it be?!'
'Am I the only one who noticed i Ling actually smiled? Aunt Liu's identity must be seriously complicated!'
Amidst Liu Yao's teasing and the dinsional viewers' excitent, Liu Yao chose not to continue teasing Jing Liuli and instead shifted the topic elsewhere.
"By the way, Liuli, I heard that this ti, besides Tendo, Chen Xing, and Caroline, you also invited other friends."
"But those friends of yours don't seem as reliable as the first few."
Jing Liuli imdiately realized who she ant.
"Aunt Liu, are you talking about Chen Kong and them?"
"Mm."
Liu Yao nodded.
"I don't an to belittle them. After all, their talent and potential are also far above their other peers, but compared to the children like Tendo, Chen Kong and his friends are still a bit lacking."
"Furthermore, after my investigation over the past few years, I found that Dragon seems to have hidden sothing else back then."
"Otherwise, why have the other Children of the Stars largely made a na for themselves in the past six years, while the information about those two children, Chen Kong and Tendo, is so scarce?"
Jing Liuli didn't give it much thought.
"Maybe it's because Kong's Star Core is special, since he was quite low-key even at the base."
"If Tendo hadn't looked out for him from ti to ti, it felt like he had a pretty miserable ti at the base."
Liu Yao smiled and shook her head, gently tapping her forehead to indicate that Jing Liuli hadn't understood her point at all.
"Liuli, the information I'm talking about isn't about being low-key or not."
"After all, if soone wasn't helping them in the dark, finding you children of the Stars wouldn't be difficult for us, especially with your existence confird."
She paused, her tone becoming serious.
"So, Liuli, those friends you invited later are much more complicated than you think."
"If possible, I suggest you be cautious and avoid letting them get too close to the core of the 'stage'."
"Don't let them near the stage?"
Jing Liuli looked confused, her small brow furrowed.
"Will they affect my concert? But Kong and the others are very reliable..."
