Chapter 162

"Awake?"

Gu Chen said with a smile: "Hungry, aren't you?"

"Mm..."

Raiden Makoto nodded gently.

"Then get up and prepare for breakfast. The sound of you slurping noodles made me hungry too." Gu Chen laughed.

"Okay."

Raiden Makoto just lifted the quilt and suddenly felt exposed; she covered herself with the quilt, blushing, wanting to say something, but after a moment's thought, she feigned composure and put on her clothes.

"Ha~"

Gu Chen yawned and stretched.

The white robes placed at the head of the bed flowed onto his body like water, and in the blink of an eye, he was fully dressed.

Raiden Makoto followed by Gu Chen's side.

Although she was a god, she was still a bit delicate; she could still feel many unusual sensations, and a faint look of pain lingered between her brows.

Noticing this, Gu Chen supported her as they came over to Lumine's side.

Seeing Lumine, who had just finished slurping her noodles and was sitting there drowsily, Gu Chen couldn't help but sigh.

It really has to be Lumine.

It was the same "brand new" experience, but Lumine's constitution was extremely robust; that day, she had run out to buy him breakfast as if nothing had happened.

"You're up? I didn't know what Makoto liked to eat, so I bought a bit of everything."

Lumine quickly tidied up the table and claimed the Red Envelope Xiangling had sent.

Fried dough sticks, steamed buns, mantou, soy milk, noodles, and more were all inside.

Smelling the food, Raiden Makoto's appetite increased greatly, and she thanked her repeatedly: "Thank you."

"We're all family, why talk like strangers!"

Lumine waved her hand with a smile.

Gu Chen sat down calmly before saying: "Why do you two look like you haven't woken up yet?"

"Gu Chen, I want to file a complaint!"

Paimon perked up, pointed at Lumine, and cried to Gu Chen: "I was clearly already asleep, but this person shook me awake to keep her company while she suffered from insomnia!"

"Haha."

Gu Chen couldn't help but laugh.

"Ahem!"

Lumine coughed twice and said: "Paimon, try to understand. Just suffer a little for these next few days."

"I don't think so."

Paimon shook her head.

Seeing Paimon's pitiful appearance, Raiden Makoto asked curiously: "Why does Lumine have insomnia?"

"She can't fall asleep if she isn't sleeping next to Gu Chen." Paimon spread her hands.

"Eh?"

Raiden Makoto suddenly understood and felt a bit embarrassed.

"It's alright, you don't need to take it to heart. We can just sleep next to each other later." Lumine said with a smile.

"T-together?!"

Raiden Makoto was startled; thinking of a certain possibility, her pretty face turned bright red, and she muttered in silence.

Gu Chen looked at Paimon and then at Lumine, lost in thought.

He suddenly had a feeling that these two had probably discussed it beforehand.

The goal was self-evident.

Since it was a good thing, Gu Chen naturally had no reason to speak up; he ate his meal quietly, filled with anticipation.

"Makoto, newlyweds never sleep in separate rooms, right?"

Lumine blinked, her eyes filled with aggrieved mist, her small mouth pouting, the sense of grievance almost overflowing.

Seeing this, Raiden Makoto was at a loss.

She thought about it, and it seemed that was indeed the logic.

If she put herself in Lumine's shoes, she would probably have insomnia too.

Feeling sorry for Lumine, Raiden Makoto kept hypnotizing herself to accept the inner image, and then said: "Then... then let's try sleeping together?"

"Makoto, you're a good person, you're really too kind!"

Lumine looked at Raiden Makoto, deeply moved.

Gu Chen felt a joy in his heart.

Just as he was slurping noodles, he suddenly felt a small foot wrapped in silk stockings touch his calf.

Gu Chen raised his eyes and glanced at Lumine.

Where Raiden Makoto couldn't see, Lumine's eyes held a cunning glint, her face like a child waiting for praise, as if saying: "I've got her! Am I impressive?"

Gu Chen gave Lumine a look of praise before saying: "Let's go out for a stroll later."

"Yay!"

Paimon clapped her hands happily.

"You're so sleepy, do you want to go rest for a while?" Gu Chen laughed.

"Mm, that makes sense. I'm going to go catch up on sleep right now!"

Paimon nodded in deep agreement and then flew toward her bedroom.

"Makes sense, I'm going too!"

Lumine nodded.

Seeing her following her, Paimon said vigilantly: "I'm really going to sleep!"

"Me too!" Lumine nodded.

Her body wasn't tired at all, but her mind was exhausted, so she definitely needed to rest.

After the two left, Raiden Makoto blushed and whispered: "She did that on purpose, right?"

How could a wise god not notice Lumine's little scheme? She just hadn't pointed it out.

"It was on purpose, but she really does need it, otherwise it would be bad if she had insomnia for a few more days." Gu Chen nodded with a smile, then added: "If you're not willing, it's fine, we can just do one person per day."

(No translation needed for the repetition)

"It's fine, I will try to accept it!"

One person per day?

Wouldn't that be even more uncomfortable?

Raiden Makoto would try her best to convince herself.

Eating breakfast quietly, Gu Chen glanced at the Superhuman Chat Group.

【Venti】: Since it's an extra portion of the Electro Authority, it must be exactly the same as the true Electro Authority, so there's no problem at all with treating Gu Chen as the Electro Archon.

(Funny)

【Sangonomiya Kokomi】: In that case, there would be two Electro Archons in the world... ah no, three Electro Archons. If you count the puppet made by the Shogun, wouldn't that be four?

(Paimon: Shocked)

【Amber】: Hi~ Good morning everyone! Wow, you've been chatting so much since early this morning?! (Paimon: Shocked)

【Tartaglia】: Amber, you're late. I finished breakfast at six and have been mining since then. (Wearing sunglasses, shedding tears) (Selfie of early morning mining and loading the truck)

【Ningguang】: I'll give you credit for your self-awareness.

【Tartaglia】: What do you mean? If you do something wrong, you have to apologize properly. Although the bad deed didn't succeed, since I was caught, I should sincerely atone! Of course, I discovered that mining can also train myself, hehe! (Paimon: Hmph)

(No translation needed for the repetition)

【Kaeya】: Good lad! So mining so diligently isn't atonement, but training yourself, right? I suggest adding another five thousand years to your sentence! (Funny)

【Tartaglia】: Don't mess around! Let's get back to the topic. What exactly will happen now that there's an extra portion of Electro Authority in the world? (Curious)

【Raiden Ei】: I don't know. (Shakes head)

【Yae Miko】: A major event will occur where Raiden Ei abdicates and Gu Chen takes the throne. (Yae Miko: Smirk)

........... Begging for flowers.

【Kamisato Ayaka】: (Observing from the shadows)

【Raiden Ei】: It's fine if my brother-in-law takes the throne; he's much stronger than me. (Nods)
