That sounds like something an old woman out of touch with society would say.
"I won't do anything to you—if the game is interesting enough."
"..."
So, if things don't go your way, you're going to do something to me?
No, wait.
Liu Bai glanced at Kafka's ambiguous smile.
I always felt that Kafka's statement was a reason to "pave a veneer for him".
For example, saying things like "It's not that our army isn't working hard enough."
With a reason, one can be relatively legitimately...
"Okay then, shall we go reserve a table now?"
"No need to rush, Miss Liuying has already placed the order... She's so kind."
Kafka chuckled gracefully, her eyes filled with admiration—as if it were all the spontaneous act of the kind-hearted firefly.
"...I bet five cents that the firefly will be upstairs or downstairs, or even more directly, right next door."
Liu Bai, who had been considering whether to go through the "defeat ending," immediately lost interest.
"Take another guess, is it possible that Liu Ying placed a camera in the hotel room?"
Kafka smiled without saying a word.
Of course it will.
Even fireflies aren't so soft that they can be easily manipulated.
However... this is also an opportunity.
After all, Liu Ying is currently immersed in happiness, and whenever something happens, she hesitates, wondering if her "happiness" will leave her.
Gentle Tomb... Kafka glanced at Liu Bai.
What Liu Ying fears most about the confrontation is Liu Bai's reaction to the matter, coupled with her own mental exhaustion.
However, if this person is forced to the edge of a cliff, he is not the kind of person who would jump off.
They'll definitely pounce and explode.
"..." Bai was also deep in thought, pondering why this had happened.
Soon, Liu Bai realized the problem.
"...Maybe I should just confront Liuying first. I thought you two were having a lot of fun."
"I'm very happy."
Kafka smiled gently, yet with a touch of sadism.
Kafka is the kind of person who can maintain a gentle smile even when committing violence—therefore, in the eyes of others, she is very sadistic and terrifying.
Of course, Kafka herself had a hard time feeling about this—but perhaps it was precisely because she couldn't understand the other person's fear that she became more and more sadistic?
—I don’t even understand the feeling of fear myself. If you think I’m scary, then you should do more and experience it more.
"Firefly doesn't have any objections, right?" Bai pouted. "Hmm... But speaking of which, Kafka, do you indulge in excessive sexual activity? If I remember correctly..."
"People born in the fifth year of the Heavenly Garment cannot feel fear, and will be dominated by desire and pleasure, turning into 'demons'."
Kafka finished Liu Bai's sentence herself.
"And I am a 'Devil Hunter' by origin..."
Kafka did not indulge in lust; for her, lust meant decadence.
She is a villain, but not a depraved or corrupt person.
Hmm... in some ways, is this a common problem with nihilism?
If one cannot exercise "restraint," one will fall into depravity and ruin. "Demons" become obsessed with other desires because they lose their fear, and self-destructive beings lose their meaning of life and give up on themselves. In fact, all of these are self-destruction.
"I'm so glad you know me so well~~ so I won't do anything to you."
Kafka laughed heartily.
[Kafka's Affection Level: 7981]
Although just having sex doesn't directly lead to being "dominated by desire and pleasure."
After all, falling into depravity takes time, and sometimes it's not as easy as one imagines. Of course, if Liu Bai had some kind of drug on his body, he could make Kafka "fall instantly" as soon as he entered... but that would be too much like a doujinshi.
"Speaking of fireflies... don't you think this would be more interesting?"
"...?"
"The fireflies' reaction or something? It wouldn't be bad to tease them a little, would it?"
"Hey, are you sure it's 'slightly'?"
"Sure, how about you trust me this once?" Kaffa said with a coquettish smile. "I'll try my best to steer this 'script' towards a win-win situation~"
"...I'll trust you this once. If anything goes wrong, tell me right away."
Liu Bai glanced at Kafka.
Since I didn't sense any malice, it wouldn't hurt to let Kafka do as she pleased... probably.
"Let's go then."
Kafka affectionately put her arm around Liu Bai's arm as they went downstairs.
…………
"...This secretary, right?"
Ye Lan looked at the monitor in the Chamber of Commerce and her expression darkened.
Is that what your secretary meant?
Ningguang, with her vast wealth and power, never managed to have an affair with her secretary, yet you, who's only been here a few days, have already hired a secretary specifically for this purpose?
"Su Mei! Look at him!"
"Oh, what's wrong?"
Su Mei's expression was indifferent, as if she were looking at an ordinary matter.
Are you asking me, as a remnant of feudalism, how I view polygamy?
Ye Lan: "..."
We can't even have a damn conversation!
"Even feudal remnants don't behave like this!"
"So, are you asking me how women in ancient times viewed random men having affairs?"
"..."
Ye Lan's face darkened.
Although Su Mei's words were relatively lenient, they were still not very gentle.
It's practically saying that people who are currently messing around don't need an unmarried woman's opinion.
Ultimately, your relationship with Liu Bai isn't that deep, so you shouldn't be meddling in his private affairs, right?
If you want to reprimand someone, you should at least reprimand their girlfriend, if not their wife or fiancée.
Of course, her relationship with Liu Bai was not so bad as to be described as that of "strangers".
Ye Lan glared at Su Mei.
This guy is incredibly protective of Liu Bai.
She's determined to take charge of this matter!
Ye Lan took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and left the office.
"...Young people are too competitive."
Su Mei sighed, then chuckled softly.
"Hmm... If the next stop is Liyue, then it would be nice to let my junior sisters come out for a stroll."
If you get so angry now, what will happen to your mental state later?
"Although I wouldn't mind lending a hand, I should at least help my own family first."
Su Mei is too lazy to snatch things herself, but she'll help others snatch them.
For example, one's own junior or senior female classmates.
My own junior sisters and senior sisters are all virtuous and kind... well, except for the fifth one.
Further down the line, there's the adopted daughter, Su Chang... never mind, she doesn't count either.
…………
"Here, this is the hotel voucher. The room has already been booked."
In front of the booked e-sports hotel, Liu Ying timidly handed the door key and other items to Liu Bai and Kafka.
"And...and this too..."
Liu Ying blushed and handed over the safety equipment.
"Gou Liubai..." Ye Lan, who was hiding and observing, changed her expression when she saw this scene.
Is this something a human could do?
Um... okay, if we change it, like Ningguang helping me and Liu Bai book a hotel room... that seems pretty exciting too.
If Ningguang also has feelings for Liu Bai, that would be even more exciting.
In front of Ningguang, the man who had been with her called Beidou and together they tied Ningguang up to the side...
Snapped!
Ye Lan slapped herself.
Why are we trying to make amends for Liu Bai at this time?
...But why do I feel like I understand a little bit of the whole story?
This may just be the nature of intelligence personnel.
They can conjure up a reason based solely on a few expressions and gestures.
It's obvious that the girl who helped book the room also had feelings for Liu Bai, but her methods were probably no match for that woman named Kafka.
Hmm... what if we turned the story we just imagined upside down?
To humiliate herself, Ningguang bound herself and, along with Beidou, played with Liu Bai...
Wait, wait, wait! Stop with the useless fantasies!
Ye Lan took two deep breaths. She'd seen pigs run before, so why was she so excited?
However, if it were me, I would probably make some preparations beforehand.
Yelan observed Liuying's movements.
By observing what this young girl does next, we can verify whether her preconceived notions are true.
罢
"……really."
After Kafka snuggled up to Liu Bai and entered the hotel, the girl waited for a while. After confirming that no one was coming down, she did not leave but went straight into the hotel.
"Hey there, you silver-haired lady with the headband, knee-high socks, and twin tails! Please wait!"
"?"
Liu Ying turned around in confusion, and casually smoothed her new hairstyle.
"You are……?"
His demeanor and walking posture were unlike those of an ordinary person.
