Protagonist:

Xuan Ge

The lamp light in the room glowed lukewarmly, the air still carrying the faint matcha scent from Liu Ying's body.

Liu Ying puffed her cheeks slightly, turning her head away, but those eyes of hers stole a glance at Xuan Ge every couple of seconds, unable to hide it no matter what.

Xuan Ge took in all these little movements, a smile pressed at the corner of his mouth, and coaxed, "Liu Ying, you know me, I might have old injuries unhealed."

"Old injuries unhealed?" Liu Ying's head snapped back instantly, the little hamster sulking appearance from just now vanishing in an instant.

She reached up to steady Xuan Ge's shoulders, her voice full of nervousness, "Xuan Ge, where else do you feel unwell?"

Yin Lang sat on the sofa, her two legs crossed and propped up on the coffee table.

She watched Liu Ying be coaxed into losing her bearings by a line from Xuan Ge that was obviously nonsense, and muttered quietly, "Love-brain is truly beyond saving."

Jing Yuan sat on the other side of the sofa in the exact same posture as Yin Lang.

But he wasn't watching Xuan Ge coax a woman; his gaze shifted over, and he asked, "Where's Xing Xing?"

"Xing Xing went to Polka's side to find excitement."

Yin Lang lowered her head playing with her game console, the screen flashing Xing Xing's and her battle record:

One 21/0/0, one 0/21/21.

She slapped the console onto her lap with a pa, not wanting to look anymore.

Jing Yuan naturally also caught a glimpse of that glaring battle record contrast.

Actually he usually plays games with Yin Lang too, and with Xing Xing, Xuan Yao, Xuan Fu'er — Xuan Jing Er occasionally comes after finishing sword practice.

With everyone gathered it makes a full squad.

But the worst player is always Yin Lang.

Jing Yuan lightly brushed the thought "Yin Lang is a noob" from his mind and returned to the topic: "Find the Lord of Silence? What excitement is there to find at her place?"

Yin Lang blew a bubble, the bubble popped with a pa, her tone carrying exasperation:

"Xing Xing heard Fu Er say I can solo the Lord of Silence with LV999, and her competitive spirit flared up instantly."

"Then she dragged Fen Feng and Zhu Wang and Guang Shi along, all together to spar with Polka."

"Uh..... then best of luck to Polka." Jing Yuan's eyelid twitched.

This kid Xing Xing, playful, competitive, these two together, truly takes after Xuan Ge when he was young.

Jing Yuan's mind was just about to drift to the scene from back then competing with Xuan Ge over who could pee farther, he violently cut off this memory, not a trace of ash left.

Yin Lang obviously didn't notice Jing Yuan's distraction.

She looked at Jing Yuan in this Thunder Yellow shirt, then turned to look at Xuan Ge who was already kissing Liu Ying — Thunder Purple short sleeve, together with Jing Yuan they're a living, breathing pair of yellow-purple magic balls.

Instantly felt like her eyes got dirt in them.

"Speaking of, are you this kind of master?" Yin Lang withdrew her gaze, her tone carrying accusation, "Going out to play and not bringing Xuan Yao along."

Hearing this, Jing Yuan's entire face instantly switched to serious mode.

He straightened his collar and looked at Yin Lang righteously: "Xuan Yao? What Xuan Yao? Yin Lang, watch your wording — that's the Luo Fu Deputy General."

"During work, please address by title."

Yin Lang rolled her eyes, squeezing out three words from her throat: "Yes yes yes."

She stood up, walked over to Xuan Ge and Liu Ying.

The two still hadn't separated.

Yin Lang tilted her head up to look for a moment, the corner of her mouth twitching down: "Tsk tsk — tongues are already extended —"

Liu Ying's eyes snapped open, she hurriedly carefully pushed Xuan Ge away, her ear roots already red through: "Yin Lang, I didn't."

Yin Lang spread her hands, her tone carrying an accurate reservation about a certain absent person: "Good thing Xing isn't here, otherwise she'd be crying and making a fuss again."

She didn't wait for Liu Ying to retort, continuing to remind: "You should go in. Xing's probably almost done too, go find her quick, don't be late and have her abducted by someone else."

"Mhm mhm." Liu Ying nodded obediently, then tilted her head to look at Xuan Ge, voice soft, "I'll go find Xing Bao first —"

Xuan Ge raised his hand and rubbed her hair strands, his fingertip pausing on the hair tips for an instant, smiling: "Go on. If you're done, you can come find me."

Liu Ying tiptoed, planted a quick kiss on his cheek, turned, and jogged toward her own Dream Pool.

Xuan Ge turned his head, scanning the remaining occupants of the room: "Alright, now there's just the three of us left."

Yin Lang was about to sit back on the sofa, hearing this she looked up at him: "What, you got some fun ideas?"

Xuan Ge didn't answer.

He reached out and grabbed Yin Lang by the back collar, lifting her whole person up, like lifting an uncooperative cloth doll.

Yin Lang dangled kicking her legs twice, her mouth not having time to protest before she was already carried to the front of the sofa and set down.

"Where's Ren?" Xuan Ge sat down, tone casual.

Yin Lang blanked for an instant, "I thought you were going to ask where Kafka went."

She leaned back, legs propped on the coffee table, continuing: "Ren Shu is babysitting for you. Right now probably in some star system, some planet's amusement park playing."

"Hehe — not bad." Jing Yuan listened, nodding.

One of the biggest joys for him and Ying Xing right now is babysitting for Xuan Ge.

Of course, Dan Heng can babysit too.

But can't let the kid stay by Dan Heng's side for long, otherwise they'd be inadvertently taught bad.

—— Surely no one thinks Dan Feng and Dan Heng are good people?

Of the Yun Shang Five Braves who can play together with Xuan Ge, none are good people.

Yin Lang shifted her posture, propping her legs directly onto Xuan Ge's thighs, and shook her toes, asking out of the blue:

"How come you're not worried about Xuan Xing at all? He went to find Polka. Don't forget, Polka has always wanted to kill you."

"Why aren't you worried?" Xuan Ge countered, his gaze falling on her face, "Aren't you two childhood friends?"

"That's still your and Xing Xiao's fault." Yin Lang waved a hand, her tone cooling, "Xuan Xing has always lived in your shadow; coming to me to play games is just to unwind."

She and Xuan Xing have a good relationship, this she admits.

Xuan Xing bears so much pressure, but as long as he slaughters a couple of game rounds, his mood recovers — this point she indeed admires.

"Besides, your Old Xuan Family's fine tradition, Xuan Xing hasn't dropped a bit of it."

Yin Lang spoke to here, shifting her gaze to Xuan Ge's face, her eyes full of "you, this source of sin."

"So?" Xuan Ge of course knew what Yin Lang meant.

Nothing more than Xuan Xing likes big ones, this point follows him.

But he indeed couldn't be sure what relationship Yin Lang and Xuan Xing actually have.

In his and Xing Xiao's, even Kafka's eyes, these two kids are just birds of a feather, both love playing games;

But in outsiders' eyes, however you look at it, it's ambiguous.

"What so?" Yin Lang violently sat straight, like her tail was stepped on, "What are you thinking? Actually want me to call you Huang Di? What kind of Aha joke is this?"

She and Xuan Xing are fundamentally impossible, she and Xuan Xing are just good friends.

Not to mention Xuan Xing likes big ones this point, just say Xuan Xing himself — single-mindedly pursues Destruction, wants to stop the End of Destruction, his mind full of how to surpass his own father.

Where would he have extra thoughts to put on feelings.

Xuan Xing comes to her every day to play games, nothing more than treating the opponent across as a noob to slaughter randomly, venting the anger in his heart.

Besides, she herself also has competitiveness.

Being bad at games this she admits, but the people beside her — Liu Ying, Kafka are both Xuan Ge's concubines;

Ren Shu is also Xuan Ge's brother.

The three of them are one generation.

She doesn't want to be ordered and admonished like a child every day.

She doesn't want to stand below that flight of steps.

Jing Yuan at the side laughed lightly: "Hehe —"

Yin Lang turned her head to look at Jing Yuan.

Seeing that face of his hanging with a smile that sees through everything, it was as if a string in her mind was plucked, only then did she realize —

She was turned upside down by Xuan Ge's two sentences.

Yin Lang's face flushed red, she sprang up, shouting at Xuan Ge: "Xuan Ge! You bastard!"

"I'm a bastard again." Xuan Ge spread his hands, and exchanged a glance with Jing Yuan.

The corners of both their mouths hooked up simultaneously, eyes full of tacit understanding and amusement.

Xuan Ge stood up.

Jing Yuan also stood up.

Yin Lang seeing the two move in such sync, froze for an instant, also followed standing up: "Where are you two going?"

Xuan Ge and Jing Yuan together turned their heads back, using a "does this need asking" look to watch her.

"What strange question you ask." Xuan Ge spoke, voice light and dismissive, "We're going to create Lian Yu."

Yin Lang stood in place, staring at these two adults wearing yellow-purple cartoon short sleeves before her, silent for two seconds.

Then she stepped forward one step, squeezed between the two, raised both arms, and draped them over left and right sides.

Three people's shoulders bumped together.

Yin Lang straightened her expression, corners of her mouth slowly hooking up: "Let's go, Partner!"
