Protagonist:
Xuan Ge
"Ren, you'd better tell me what Xing Bao's been up to lately."
Kafka donned her Purple Spiderweb Coat and looked at Ren.
Upon hearing this, Ren had already broken into a sweat.
"Uh....." Ren opened his mouth, then shut it again.
How was he supposed to say this....
Xing's always wanted to usurp Xing Fei's position — could he say that?
If he did, would Kafka get angry?
If she got angry, would he still be able to keep babysitting?
He subconsciously looked at Yin Lang.
Yin Lang was tiptoeing toward the Door.
"Yin Lang." Kafka's gaze immediately captured her.
"Uh....." Yin Lang's footsteps halted abruptly, her suspended toes slowly retracting.
What could she say?
Say that these past few days she'd been fooling around with Xuan Ge the whole time and had no idea what Xing was up to?
"This question looks pretty hard to answer."
Kafka looked at the constipated expressions on both their faces and understood everything.
"Mission's shelved for now. Ai Li Ou and Liu Ying on guard duty. As for you two——"
She paused, then issued the order: "Come back to Shen Wu with me."
Yin Lang and Ren exchanged a glance; neither moved a step.
Kafka took two steps, noticed no footsteps behind her, and looked back.
"Is my voice too quiet?"
"Yes!" The two jumped at Kafka's glare.
"I'm on guard duty again~~" Liu Ying hugged the Raccoon Plush, watching the three figures disappear into the Door, her cheeks slowly puffing up.
It's not like I just snuck a few bites behind Kafka's back — is it really necessary to be this guarded against me?
I'm getting a little mad~!
Ai Li Ou crouched on the Counter nearby, lazily licking his cat paws, looking at Liu Ying with a somewhat speechless expression.
Pinocchio, how many times have you snuck food behind Kafka's back, behind the Script's back?
When shopping with Xing, you'd constantly slip off to find Xuan Ge, sneak a kiss, sneak a touch.
You and Xuan Ge are just one step away from emerging from the dream and tossing around in the Dream Pool.
As for why Liu Ying was left to guard the house.
Ever since she's been drinking the medicine refined from Xuan Ge's blood to suppress Entropy Loss Syndrome every day, plus fooling around with Xuan Ge every few days....
That breeding aura on her has been getting heavier and heavier.
Now when she transforms into Sam, the flames are sometimes purple.
If not you guarding the house, then who?
Xuan Ge's side was still at the banquet.
But this banquet, he ate with exceptional relish.
"Sister~ I'm young, let me have a turn~~"
Xing sat next to Xing Xiao, arms hugging her arm shaking it left and right, yet her eyes kept glancing toward the spot beside Xuan Ge.
She wanted to switch seats, to sit next to Xian Ge.
"Being young isn't great. Scum ultimately likes them big~ Wait till you grow some more."
Xing Xiao picked up a piece of food with Chopsticks and put it in Xing's Bowl, then ignored this inch-giving mile-taking Little Raccoon with a smile on her face.
"I'm not small. I'm way bigger than you."
Xing poked Xing Xiao's chest with a finger, then puffed out her own chest to show it off.
Xing Xiao took a deep breath.
Looking at Xing's innocent eyes, she momentarily couldn't tell if this girl was doing it on purpose or really by accident.
Ji Zi didn't look at Xing.
She'd already built the bridge for Xing, pulled her into the game — the rest was up to Xing's own ability.
Helping further would be overstepping.
Kafka would eventually come settle accounts with her.
She raised her hand and poured Xuan Ge a cup of Alcohol, "Emperor, drink a bit more."
"How much more do I have to drink." Xuan Ge downed it in one gulp, eyes still secretly tracking Xing and Xing Xiao's interaction.
Too entertaining, he loved this kind of interaction the most.
Under the Table, Ting Yun kicked Huan Long's ankle with her toe, voice lowered so only the two could hear.
"Huan Long, do you think I have a chance?"
"You...." Huan Long scanned her up and down, "No."
"I don't think so." Ting Yun picked up her wine cup and started chugging.
As long as she got herself drunk and kept up the fox-spirit spoiled act, she'd definitely get the Emperor.
And the situation right now is very clear:
Xing Xiao is tied up by Xing, Ling Sha and Ji Zi are still guarding against each other.
March 7th..... skip.
The only opponents left are myself and Huan Long.
Teaming up works too; although she'd rather have him all to herself, two people joining forces clearly have a higher win rate.
"Interesting." March 7th, who had been eating with her head down, suddenly put down her chopsticks.
She slowly raised her head, her gaze sweeping inch by inch across everyone at the table.
Xuan Ge looked over, meeting a pair of red pupils dead-on.
Chang Ye Yue blinked one eye, a bewitching smile curling her lips.
Xuan Ge smiled, lifting his wine cup.
Chang Ye Yue also picked up..... fruit juice.
March 7th still loves drinking fruit drinks that much.
Chang Ye Yue raised her cup, tilting it slightly toward him as a signal.
Xuan Ge wasn't the only one who noticed Chang Ye Yue.
Dan Heng turned his face, lowering his voice to warn: "Chang Ye Yue, Xing and Ji Zi are still here."
"No matter. Their attention isn't on me~~"
Chang Ye Yue propped her cheek with one hand, red eyes scanning the crowd.
Her gaze finally landed on that little fox huddled by Huan Long's ear, scheming.
"Huan Long, let's cooperate." Ting Yun was still shaking Huan Long's knee under the table when her calf suddenly itched.
She looked down; a floating red jellyfish was stuck to her ankle, tentacles drifting gently as if in water.
"What is this?" Ting Yun reached out to touch it.
Huan Long slapped her hand away with a crack.
"You want to die?"
Huan Long finished speaking, then looked up at March 7th.
But March 7th had already returned; her pupils were their usual color.
Huan Long looked under the table again——the jellyfish was gone.
"How's it gone?" Ting Yun bent down and searched the floor for a long time.
She just blinked once, and that pretty jellyfish evaporated into thin air.
"Hehe~~ For the sake of the Express companions, even using power without hesitation."
Huan Long looked at March 7th, muttering softly.
She thought Chang Ye Yue showed up to help Xing hold the scene, stop her and Ting Yun from disrupting Xing's rhythm.
"Hehe~~ Hello~~"
March 7th noticed Huan Long kept staring at her, forced herself to hold on for a long time, finally giving an embarrassed smile and a greeting.
Huan Long returned a smile.
But in her heart she already understood——she and Ting Yun were out.
Just as everyone harbored their own thoughts, a figure no one expected appeared at the Banquet Hall entrance.
"What day is it today, Emperor, eating this well?"
Kafka walked over; who knows if she was talking to the dishes on the table or to these women present.
"Nothing much. Just celebrating Xing a bit——after all, Xing has completed a lot of Shen Wu's commissions."
Xuan Ge answered naturally; he knew Kafka was coming.
Kafka glanced at Xuan Ge, then at the pure white bodysuit identical to Xing Xiao's that Xing was wearing, and instantly pieced the whole thing together from start to finish.
She didn't lecture Xing right away, but turned her gaze to Ji Zi.
"Ji Zi, you seem to have forgotten something?"
"Kafka, I haven't forgotten." Ji Zi held her wine cup, glancing unobtrusively toward Xing Xiao's side.
"Besides, Xing is happy. Isn't she? She even gained a sister."
"Gained a sister?" Kafka followed her gaze.
Xing was clutching Xing Xiao's arm tightly, not moving an inch.
Kafka looked at Xing like that, a sigh flashing through her heart.
She didn't understand, what's so good about Xuan Ge?
His looks, his strength, his size?
Once you really enter this harem, not one of these women is easy to deal with.
Back then, if not for Ren helping at her side, plus catching the chaotic situation during the contention period, she'd have had a hard time securely winning Xuan Ge from Ling Sha, Da Li Hua, and Xing Xiao.
Let alone a simple-minded little girl like Xing.
Really think this harem is some great place?
Although nominally you can do whatever you want, go wherever, play however you like.
But the consort's status is an invisible shackle; even ones as strong as Xing Xiao and Huan Long have to wear it obediently.
Xing's all fired up now, but once she really enters, if she doesn't fight her way out of this pile of women, she can only wait for when Xuan Ge feels like indulging his lust.
Xing felt that gaze from Kafka at her back; she didn't dare turn around.
Xing Xiao looked at the little raccoon that had just been jumping around, a meaningful smile curving her lips.
She picked up the cup before Xing and steadily held it to her lips.
"Little sister, you've said so much just now; you must be thirsty, right?"
Xing stared at the rim of the cup at her lips but dared not drink.
"Drink. Isn't she your sister?" Kafka finally spoke.
This line was a way out. Xing heard it.
She parted her lips and took a sip from Xing Xiao's hand.
"Your Majesty, it's been many days. I have something I want to tell you." Kafka's gaze moved away from Xing and fell on Xuan Ge.
Xuan Ge subconsciously glanced at Ji Zi.
Kafka caught that look of his, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly.
Acknowledged.
If it's rice with toppings, then so be it; at least there's someone to share the firepower.
"Perfect, Ji Zi can come too."
After speaking, Kafka turned and walked toward her own palace in the rear palace.
Xing watched the three figures walk away and blinked.
Her mind was somewhat muddled.
Wait, why isn't this developing correctly?
Why did Sister Ji Zi leave too?
What are the three of them going to do?
Shouldn't Kafka stay behind to interrogate her?
Shouldn't Sister Ji Zi be beside her speaking for her?
How—did they all leave?
"Sigh." Xing Xiao lightly sighed, reaching out to ruffle Xing's gray hair.
Xing does not need to enter the game.
Xing only needs to stay outside the circle, being spoiled by Xuan Ge.
