A Guilty Conscience, and a Morning with Koike

The following morning.

Seven o’clock.

【Ding!】

【Today is another day full of hope!】

【Please continue exploring the Great Dao, Host~ Work hard to become the pillar of the sect!】

“Gurgle, gurgle… gurgle, gurgle…”

Lin Yu was rinsing his mouth in the bathroom.

He had long since grown used to the system’s familiar “alarm” and no longer paid it any mind.

Today, however, he hadn’t been woken by the alarm.

Instead, half an hour earlier, he had been forcibly dragged from his sleep by the buzzing vibration of his phone.

When he went to bed, he had deliberately disconnected from the internet and switched his phone to vibrate mode to avoid being disturbed by WeChat notifications.

In the end…

He still hadn’t escaped Little Chi’s early-morning wake-up service.

The two of them had agreed to meet at the small side gate of the residential compound at seven-thirty.

They had deliberately chosen the small gate to avoid Elder Chi’s surveillance.

Elder Sister was also heading to school first thing that morning.

Elder Sister would leave through the main entrance, while they would slip out through the side gate.

A foolproof plan!

Worried that Lin Yu might sleep in and delay their outing, Chi Qingchi had started calling him a full hour in advance.

He had thought Little Chi really understood men.

As it turned out…

Her understanding was only superficial at best.

When a man agreed to leave at a certain time, why would he need to get up an hour beforehand?

Even ten minutes early would leave plenty of time to use the bathroom!

…

After washing up and getting dressed, Lin Yu connected to the internet and glanced at his phone.

A long string of messages popped up one after another.

They were all sweet burdens.

Tsk, tsk, tsk.

The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.

The message at the very top was from Little Chi, sent just moments ago.

「Chi Qingchi: Little Lin, Elder Sister has already left. Are you ready? We can set off early!」

The Second Miss was certainly in a hurry!

Elder Chi had probably only just left, and she had already sent him a message.

Whenever food was involved, Little Chi’s enthusiasm always exceeded everyone’s expectations.

The competition had been rescheduled yesterday to start at eleven in the morning.

And yet…

They weren’t leaving later.

They were actually leaving earlier!

What was the point of going so early?

Little Chi was truly impossible to understand.

Still, since he had agreed to go with her, Lin Yu naturally wouldn’t ruin her fun.

「Lin Yu: I’m ready to leave anytime.」

After replying, he hadn’t even exited the chat window when Little Chi’s instant reply appeared.

「Chi Qingchi: OK, I’m heading out now!」

…

Three minutes later.

At the small side gate of the residential compound.

Lin Yu leisurely strolled over, but he didn’t see any sign of Chi Qingchi at the entrance.

He wasn’t surprised.

Instead of taking out his phone to call her, he walked toward the large tree around the corner.

Sure enough!

Little Chi was standing inside the tree pit, using the thick tree trunk as cover.

She had hidden herself completely.

“Was it really necessary to hide this seriously?”

“What if I came out, couldn’t find you, and went home by myself? You’d cry your eyes out!”

Lin Yu couldn’t help saying.

This time, Little Chi had signed up for the big-eater competition without telling Elder Sister.

For safety’s sake, she didn’t merely intend to keep it from Elder Sister. Ideally, she wanted to hide it from all the sisters in the apartment.

That was why she was being so cautious when leaving the building.

Not only had she hidden behind a tree, she had even put on a baseball cap—something she rarely did.

At a glance, she looked almost exactly like Elder Chi standing there!

“Shh!”

“Let’s get a taxi and leave, quick.”

“This place isn’t safe. We might run into one of the sisters in a moment.”

“If they see the two of us together, we’re finished!”

Lin Yu: “…”

What terrible dialogue!
