Fang Qi: “…”
Who’s the one spouting nonsense here!
He shot her a glare.
“First, step out from behind Sister An Lian and stand up straight!”
“…Oh.”
Lin Xiaoyou obediently stepped out from behind An Lian.
She stood beside An Lian.
The two women stood side by side.
Lin Xiaoyou naturally lifted her chin, revealing her pale, slender neck.
A mischievous grin still hung on her lips, but there was a hint of seriousness in her eyes.
As for An Lian…
Her expression was still puzzled.
Her cool gray eyes swept back and forth between Fang Qi and the gene door, her brow slightly furrowed.
But she said nothing, just stood there quietly.
The gauze on her right ear still showed faint traces of blood, and her face remained pale.
Fang Qi took a deep breath…
He gently squeezed the small hand Liguang still held.
The silver-haired girl looked up at him…
Gave a slight nod, then let go.
Alright.
With his wife’s permission,
he immediately stepped forward, focused his mind…
And looked at the two women’s necks.
Lin Xiaoyou’s neck was fair and delicate.
An Lian’s neck was long and elegant.
They looked…
Perfectly normal.
Yeah.
Nothing there.
So Fang Qi squinted hard, staring at the spot on Lin Xiaoyou’s throat.
Right there.
He had clearly seen it just now!
That ring of bluish threads!
Like a translucent blue collar, coiled around her neck!
But now…
Fang Qi took another half-step forward.
Nothing.
Lin Xiaoyou blinked and lifted her neck even higher.
“…Xiao Qi, what exactly are you looking at?”
An Lian finally couldn’t help asking. She tilted her head slightly, looking a bit uneasy.
Fang Qi pressed his lips together and didn’t answer.
He didn’t know how to answer!
He just stared at that expanse of bare skin, his expression turning sharp…!
“Come out!”
He barked suddenly.
But…
The neck remained pale and clean.
He pointed at Lin Xiaoyou’s neck again!
“Come out now!”
Nothing happened.
He waved his hand through the air!
“Disperse!”
Then he saw that Lin Xiaoyou’s neck was trembling!
Huh?!
He squinted!
It was working…?!
“…Pfft.”
Lin Xiaoyou’s cheeks were trembling too.
The corners of her mouth were twitching wildly!
Her almond eyes were wide open, and her whole body was shaking slightly!
She was biting her lip desperately, but the laugh…
was about to burst out!
Fang Qi kept his face blank.
Damn it…!
And beside them…
An Lian’s look at him was growing more complicated!
In her gray eyes was a subtle emotion—
a mix of disappointment and frustration!
She opened her mouth, then finally…
“Sigh…”
Let out a sigh.
And shook her head again.
Fang Qi: “…”
No, Sister An Lian, let me explain…!!
I…!
He gritted his teeth and immediately raised his hand, intending to touch Lin Xiaoyou’s neck!
Maybe touching it would have a different effect!
It made sense, he should just—!
Suddenly, his wrist was clamped tightly!
The force was so strong that his wrist let out a faint click!
“S-s-s—”
Fang Qi gasped sharply.
That hurts!
He turned his head stiffly.
The silver-haired girl had somehow appeared beside him.
Her slender hand gripped his wrist, her five fingers locking like precision machinery, holding him firmly in place.
She tilted her head, looking at him.
A smile hung on her pretty face.
A calm smile.
Calmer than “kindness,” gentler, and more…
enough to send a chill down your spine.
“Master.”
Her voice was soft, like a feather brushing against his ear.
“What exactly… are you trying to do?”
She narrowed her eyes slightly.
“…Hmm?”
The blue in her amber pupils seemed to brighten at that moment!
Fang Qi: “…”
Honey, your expression is even scarier than before…
He quickly raised his other hand and rubbed the silver-haired girl’s cheek firmly!
Her soft cheek flesh deformed under his fingers.
That terrifying smile of hers was rubbed away.
But she kept squinting at him!
“I was just thinking…”
Fang Qi hurriedly explained:
“Maybe touching it could work!”
He rubbed her cheek a couple more times.
“Maybe if I touch it, I can—”
“Oh~”
A teasing voice came from the side.
Lin Xiaoyou rested her chin on one hand, her almond eyes curved into crescents, grinning as she watched them.
“Liguang, look—your master is making excuses to touch me!”
As she spoke, she deliberately stretched her neck forward!
“Go ahead, Senior! Touch me! I don’t mi—hey hey, don’t glare at me, I’m sorry, I’m sorry!”
The moment Liguang turned her head, Lin Xiaoyou shrank back behind An Lian again!
Fang Qi clenched his teeth.
Lin Xiaoyou!
Can you just stop causing trouble for once?!
An Lian pursed her lips beside them, her gray eyes darting between Liguang and Fang Qi…
Then she let out another soft sigh.
Fang Qi: “I…”
“Liguang will accompany Master.”
The silver-haired girl gripping his wrist suddenly spoke softly.
Then her fingers slowly loosened, and she gently took his hand, pressing her palm over the back of his hand.
Fang Qi blinked.
Accompany… how?
Liguang’s hand rested on his, guiding his hand upward toward Lin Xiaoyou’s neck.
Ah…
Fang Qi realized.
So that’s how she’d solve it…
Lin Xiaoyou blinked at the two of them, bit her lip to stifle a laugh…
And lifted her neck again.
His fingertips touched her skin.
It was warm.
Just like any ordinary person.
Hmm…
This was the same little neck that would be severed in the “Last Supper” ending.
But…
Nothing happened.
No blue light flashed, no “collar” appeared, and Fang Qi didn’t feel anything special.
Just like before.
Fang Qi pressed his lips together.
Sure enough…
“…No effect.”
Liguang murmured.
Then she quickly pulled a white handkerchief from her pocket!
Her movements were elegant as she unfolded it, and then…
she began vigorously wiping Fang Qi’s fingers!
One by one!
Thoroughly!
Even between his nails!
Fang Qi: “…”
Honey, you…
“Hey! Liguang, what do you mean by that?!”
Lin Xiaoyou immediately protested, her almond eyes wide!
“I’m not dirty! I took a shower this morning, you know!”
Liguang ignored her and kept wiping!
An Lian watched this scene from the side, and the corner of her mouth seemed to curl slightly, but it quickly returned to its cool expression.
Fang Qi looked at his reddened fingers, then at the two women’s still-bare necks.
He was silent for a moment.
“…Liguang.”
He spoke softly.
The silver-haired girl, focused on wiping his index finger, looked up slightly at his voice.
“Maybe…”
Fang Qi stared at the blue in her eyes.
“This task needs the two of us to do it together.”
Liguang’s amber eyes trembled.
That was right.
It was Liguang who had used a lot of electricity earlier to make those two rings of “collars” visible.
And then, he had felt that sensation.
So…
He gripped her hand tightly, looking at her earnestly:
“Liguang, Master needs you.”
After Liguang made the “collars” visible…
He should be able to just pull them out directly!
Hmm…
It should work, right…?
The silver-haired girl’s wiping motion stopped.
She looked up, dazed at him.
Then, the corners of her lips lifted gently.
A faint smile, but her brows and eyes curved quite sharply.
There was an odd hint of obsession in it…
Fang Qi’s eyes flickered.
So beautiful!
“Master needs Liguang…”
The silver-haired girl repeated softly, tightening her grip on his hand!
“Then Liguang, right now…!”
“No!”
Two voices rang out at once.
Fang Qi and An Lian.
Fang Qi glared at Liguang:
“You don’t even have any power left!”
“That’s right.”
An Lian’s voice also dropped slightly.
“I don’t know what happened in that instant, but…”
She looked at Liguang.
“Liguang, your power consumption in that instant was too high.”
“If you don’t recharge first, you can’t do anything.”
She turned back to Fang Qi, her gray eyes serious.
“We have to recharge Liguang first!”
Liguang pressed her lips together.
Whether it was because her master had refused her, or because her master and another woman had reached an agreement…
Either way, her expression was a little displeased.
But Fang Qi stared at her sternly!
No means no!
He did not want his wife to run out of power again!
“So troublesome…”
Lin Xiaoyou muttered from the side:
“Why not just open the door directly…”
“…Huh?”
The silver-haired girl slowly turned her head.
“Miss Lin, do you have any objections…”
Her phoenix eyes narrowed slightly:
“…to Master’s plan?”
Lin Xiaoyou snapped to attention on the spot!
“No!”
She thrust out her chest and pulled in her stomach, her expression deadly serious!
“Absolutely not!”
“I’ll take Mama Liguang to recharge right now!”
……
The charging pod stood quietly in the corner of the living area on floor B1.
Compared to the one in Liguang’s bedroom, this charging pod had a more industrial style.
A silver-white metal shell, cold and harsh right angles, with a few fine scratches visible on the surface.
Fang Qi sat on a small stool in front of the charging pod, resting his chin in his hands as he watched it.
The transparent hatch had already closed, and Liguang stood quietly inside.
But…
She hadn’t shut down.
Even while recharging, those heterochromatic eyes were staring at him through the transparent hatch without blinking!
That faint blue hue was still steadily rippling.
Fang Qi pressed his lips together.
Nothing he could do about it.
It had to be this way…
Because…
Liguang refused to let Fang Qi leave her sight.
Especially…
to be somewhere she couldn’t see him with the other two women!
So they had no choice but to sit by the charging pod, letting Liguang watch him while she recharged!
…That worked too.
Watch all you want!
Fang Qi blinked at her.
—Recharge properly.
The silver-haired girl blinked back at him.
—Master, Liguang is recharging.
The two of them just kept blinking at each other through the transparent hatch.
“Crunch crunch…”
A crisp chewing sound.
Lin Xiaoyou sat on another small stool, a bag of chips she had dug up from somewhere cradled in her arms.
She sat cross-legged, her pale little legs swinging back and forth, her cheeks stuffed full.
“Ahhh…”
She licked the seasoning powder off her fingers and mumbled indistinctly:
“If I’d known there wasn’t much to do, I’d have brought Xiaoqing along…”
An Lian sat on a folding chair nearby.
She held a cup of water in both hands, the gauze on her right ear now a dark red.
Her cool profile revealed no clear expression.
She was looking down, her gray eyes staring blankly at the gently rippling surface of the water in the cup.
Fang Qi glanced at her.
Sister An Lian had been silent the whole time.
She had barely spoken since earlier.
She didn’t really think…!
“…Xiao Qi.”
An Lian suddenly spoke.
Lin Xiaoyou paused mid-chew.
Fang Qi turned his head.
An Lian was still looking down, her gray eyes slightly unfocused.
“…You’ve lost your memory, haven’t you?”
Fang Qi was taken aback.
Lin Xiaoyou’s almond-shaped eyes blinked.
“…Sister An Lian, I…”
He opened his mouth.
Come to think of it, he had never told An Lian about this.
He hadn’t meant to keep it a secret on purpose—he just hadn’t found the right moment.
And he felt…
Sister An Lian had probably known all along.
The two of them just had never talked about it.
Now that she had brought it up so suddenly…
He didn’t know how to answer.
Inside the charging pod, Liguang’s red pupil flickered slightly.
She still stood there quietly, but those heterochromatic eyes had already turned toward An Lian.
An Lian looked at Fang Qi’s expression and sighed softly.
“So it’s true…”
The corner of her mouth lifted slightly.
With a hint of helplessness and bitterness.
She raised her eyes to look at the silver-haired girl inside the charging pod, who was both recharging and watching them.
Those heterochromatic eyes were silently fixed on her.
“…Xiao Qi.”
An Lian looked back at Fang Qi.
Her voice softened.
Her gray eyes trembled slightly.
“There’s something I want to tell you.”
She paused, her fingers gently stroking the rim of the cup.
“Whether or not we’re saved this time…”
“I want to say it.”
