Honkai Impact 3rd, but I have too many mods.

So... who is the dog?

"Ningguang! Open the door!"

"Stop calling, Master. No one will open the door for you even if you shout until you're hoarse."

Su Mei's light, slightly amused voice rang out from outside.

"Su... Su Mei?" Upon hearing that it was her second son outside, Fu Hua's imposing manner inexplicably diminished.

After all... she had been bewitched by Su Mei and signed a "devil's contract" with her.

"What...what do you want me to do?"

You never said before that your help would be to get me to the point of complete satisfaction... or even to the point of complete satisfaction!

Fu Hua was already starting to regret falling into Su Mei's trap.

I shouldn't have nodded back then!

...Then Lin Chaoyu might agree too.

"Mr. Liu Bai, are you free to have a bowl of soup now?" Su Mei asked with a smile from outside the door.

Free your hands?

Fu Hua recalled for a moment.

There looked like a book in front of Liu Bai.

...Can that guy really concentrate on reading?

Fu Hua expressed deep skepticism about this.

"Yes, his hands are free."

Fu Hua took a clever approach. She didn't even need to think that if she answered Liu Bai that her hands were too empty, Su Mei would definitely have something else to say to her.

"Then you need to show your thoughtfulness and femininity even more, Master."

However, Su Mei was completely unaffected by Fu Hua's reply.

"While it may not be as helpful as providing timely assistance... it might be better to add to someone's already good fortune at this time."

Fu Hua felt that Su Mei was fooling her.

...Wait, how does Su Mei know so much about what's happening here?

Fu Hua suddenly noticed something.

Did Ningguang tell you?

It's possible, but Fu Hua felt something was off.

Why... is it such a coincidence?

In the afternoon, I reached an agreement with Su Mei, and in the evening, we strolled around the makeshift night market that had been set up to make the best of a bad situation.

Now I've fallen into Su Mei's trap?

"...Su Mei, was this incident your doing?" Fu Hua asked tentatively.

"Disciple is very happy that Master has finally become sensitive to intrigue and trickery."

Su Mei readily admitted this from behind the door.

"Everything tonight was done by me."

From the very beginning, Liu Bai's encounter with Huang Quan was due to her tipping him off.

As long as Huang Quan blocks Liu Bai, everything else is just going with the flow.

If Ningguang isn't stupid, she'll be able to sense Huangquan's "aggressiveness." Once she senses it, she'll definitely do something to Liu Bai with the goal of getting closer to him.

The only uncertainty is whether it will be "two people locked up" or "one person locked up".

"Unfortunately, our Lord Tianquan is still not bold enough."

“…I think it would be strange if she were bold.” Fu Hua pushed up her glasses.

Ningguang isn't the kind of person who would stop at nothing.

"So, Master, what is your choice?"

Su Mei's question silenced Fu Hua.

—As if she could leave if she refused!

"Is this the only way to showcase your charm?"

Fu Hua muttered something under his breath.

Little did anyone know that Su Mei overheard this.

"If you don't use this method, Master, do you still want to rely on your figure?"

"..."

Ah, I suddenly have the urge to sacrifice one of my disciples to the heavens.

Fu Hua's eyelids twitched, but she managed to stay calm.

If you break through their defenses, it's tantamount to admitting what they're saying.

So Fu Hua silently found the bowl and the food in the living room and returned to the bedroom.

On the other hand, seeing Liu Bai and Huang Quan doing this kind of thing, what makes Su Mei think she can adapt to it?

...Although my emotional fluctuations were indeed much smaller than I had imagined.

"Su Mei locked the door," Fu Hua said before Liu Bai could speak. "Do you have time for soup?"

"I really want to say yes—but actually I don't."

Although Liu Bai's hands were idle, his lower body was taking up too much of his energy, not to mention that he also needed to study.

"...Then I'll feed you."

Fu Hua opened the lid and began to ladle out the soup.

Liu Bai's lips twitched twice when he saw the soup.

This soup... it looks so familiar. Isn't this the same nourishing soup that Huang Quan made for him before?

Fu Hua walked to Liu Bai's side.

It has to be said that the hormonal atmosphere in this room is a bit too... overwhelming.

Fu Hua didn't know how to describe this feeling.

It's very upsetting, but... it also feels like it's easy to accept.

Stay calm... First and foremost, you must remain calm and absolutely not waver because of this feeling.

early morning.

"That'll be fine."

Fu Hua placed the filthy Huang Quan into the pool and asked Liu Bai, who was mopping the floor in the room.

"Okay, let it soak for now." Bai Bian nodded as he mopped the floor.

The room was... somewhat "overflowing".

(...The quantity is really large.)

Fu Hua glanced at Huang Quan's body intentionally this time, then, realizing her rudeness, she coughed lightly and looked away.

"This is the first time I've heard that you and Huang Quan have this kind of relationship, Mr. Liu Bai," Fu Hua asked, stepping out of the bathroom with a slightly strange tone.

Liu Bai was speechless.

"Does anyone else know?"

"That's hard to say."

After barely finishing mopping the floor, Liu Bai sat back down at his desk.

"Will you feel guilty?" Fu Hua sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Liu Bai.

"In what aspect?" Bai looked at Fu Hua with some surprise.

"Um... it's about... getting involved with so many girls."

Fu Hua was actually very curious about this question.

"I don't have any irresponsible thoughts. I might be a little sentimental sometimes, but guilt... it's hard to say whether I feel that way."

Fu Hua's question prompted Liu Bai to carefully choose his words before giving a serious answer.

"Can someone in charge come over?" Fu Hua pressed.

"That's why you need to improve yourself." Bai yawned.

I haven't slept for a day and a night since yesterday.

"It may sound strange, but I'm actually not the kind of person who really enjoys collaborations."

This made Fu Hua slightly puzzled.

After all, Liu Bai is currently surrounded by a crowd.

This kind of person claims to be a loner who doesn't like to cooperate.

"Because I can be sure of what actions I will take, but I can't decide what actions others will take, so entrusting some things to others can lead to unpredictability."

Liu Bai thought for a moment.

"Hmm... To give a simple example, in university group projects, even though everyone has their own assigned tasks, there are often situations where some group members are unable to complete the work. I don't really like this situation."

“This is something that can’t be avoided.” Fu Hua’s expression also became serious.

She realized that Liu Bai wasn't teasing her.

“Yes, there’s no way to avoid it.” Wu Bai nodded. “So simplifying what others have to do and improving your own abilities is a very good way for someone like me… who can be said to have a strong ‘desire for control’.”

"Force yourself to become a jack-of-all-trades?"

"It's not that exaggerated. I know that professional things should be left to professionals." Bai waved his hand. "But sometimes I do not mind becoming a professional myself... Well, if you look at it that way, I might have a stronger desire for control than Otto."

"You'll be exhausted."

"You won't die from exhaustion if you don't act like a human," Bai Xiaoxiao joked. "Okay, actually there's another option: infinite subdivision, like an assembly line—giving someone a detailed instruction manual is not as good as having a simple button."

“You’ll get more tired if you break things down too much… Do you lack trust in people at work?” Fu Hua thought about it carefully and realized that this was the first time she had opened up to Liu Bai like this.

“No, the ability to judge and assign tasks is also a skill,” Bai corrected. “Well… although this is the first time I’ve been expected to do so much, I’m also honing my skills in this area as a beginner. The first thing is judging my own abilities and identity, so I know very well what I should do.”

Liu Bai hesitated for a moment before adding, "Of course it's definitely not a tool for Huang Quan to relieve his lust."

"..."

Thinking about it carefully, this guy doesn't seem like a beginner at all in this area.

Geniuses are truly unreasonable things...

A person born with the ability to shoulder the burdens of the masses... Even the ancient sage rulers were only this capable, right?

...It's just that my thought process is sometimes a bit peculiar.

Nobody asked you to explain this, okay?

"...Actually, that might be a possibility?" Bai hesitated for a moment, "Ahem, let's skip this topic."

"Well... on the other hand, as a 'human,' my judgment standards are more or less subjective, and I may make mistakes." Bai scratched his face, revealing a rare youthful naiveté.

"'Not taking anger out on others,' however... even a saint's standard is simply to be without fault," Fu Hua said in a deep voice.

"Including my subconscious assumption that you were right about A?"

"..."

Fu Hua silently clenched her fists.

"This kind of attempt to liven up the atmosphere is very unpleasant. Let's start by correcting and improving this, Liu Bai."
