Something's wrong, they're not NPCs?

Chapter 230 It Must Be an Illusion

6 month 23 day.

noon.

"..."

An Xiaoxi opened her eyes drowsily and felt a slightly soft touch beneath her body.

bed?
The bedroom door was not closed and there was someone in the living room.

"Let's see, the pronunciation of German is very different from that of English..."

Who is watching German learning videos?

From An Xiaoxi's perspective, she could see her back on the sofa, her hair was all white, she had two ponytails, and she was wearing... maybe a sleeveless dress?

"One of Plato's women, Xia Ye knows it, right?"

"……Eh?"

Illuminated by the golden light coming in through the window, An Xiaoxi saw that the profile was slightly glowing, and she remembered.

I met her when I was about to go out in the morning, and then... she fell asleep?
"Plato, I never told you what I am?"

“Suck, suck…”

"Not just a vampire, my father is an ordinary human, and my mother is a succubus. I also have the physique of a vampire due to a series of reasons. I have special abilities. Come and sit down."

"..."

An Xiaoxi hesitated for a moment and sat two steps away from Miao Xueer.

That too pale face and too dull expression frightened her inexplicably.

"The day before yesterday, Plato called me out of the blue."

"..."

"I thought he had a change of heart and finally realized how to care about me."

"..."

"In the end, it was about you."

"..."

An Xiaoxi lowered her head and almost curled up into a ball.

What does this feel like?

I was having a happy affair at home, but was suddenly caught by the person in the street.

"do you know?"

"People like Plato would never ask me for help. They would never ask anyone else for help."

"He always wanted me to do this, that, and even wanted me to beg him."

"……sorry."

An Xiaoxi managed to squeeze out some words, raised her eyes and met Miao Xueer's cold gaze, then immediately lowered her head even lower.

"Let's have tea."

"It's the same for me. In my entire life, I have only made tea for three people, including you. The first one was Plato, and the second one was your sister. You are the third one."

"..."

An Xiaoxi held the cup that Miao Xueer pushed over to her, but didn't drink it. She just lowered her head and looked at her face reflected in the tea.

"Plato never asked anyone for anything, but he asked me for something the day before yesterday."

"I'm very angry... I've never been this angry before, so I came here. I just want to know what's going on."

"Like I said before, I have a special ability. I can temporarily control your consciousness and ask you questions you want to ask."

"..."

"result……"

"Plato's friends are either scheming women who rely on their cleverness and strength, or stupid women like businessmen. I've waited for him for seven hundred years, and I want something in return. I want him."

"What on earth are you like?"

"Willing to wait, willing to give everything, or willing to give nothing?"

"..."

An Xiaoxi was stunned for a long time.

ability?

Did you get hooked the moment you met?
Brother-in-law...had already begged her the day before yesterday?
Because of myself.

"What can I do? What can I do?"

"After hypnosis, I'll make you willing to die for him."

"..."

"Thinking that I'm difficult to communicate with, huh... I'm afraid Plato thinks I'm the easiest person to fool. He thinks I'm an idiot."

6 month 23 day.

in the afternoon.

"College? I never went."

"In today's times, I am illiterate. I don't even have an elementary school education."

"..."

“I have tried to make gourmet food, but Plato won’t be in Windsor Castle often anyway, so I’m too lazy to learn.”

"..."

"Sure enough, any woman around Plato will automatically become obscene."

"what……"

Seeing Miao Xueer counting the clothes in the closet, An Xiaoxi wanted to stop her but was unable to move.

"What do you have? I have plenty in my closet, all over the room."

"Sniff sniff~"

"This fresh smell must have been used within two days."

"..."

You can smell it? I clearly added the fragrance beads and washed it once.

"Listen, I used to hate Plato's pleasure-seeking."

"But my opinion changed after meeting the merchant. I don't know the details of your experience with Plato... but if it's not a random find, I can tolerate it."

"It's normal for a royal knight to have three wives and four concubines. But I don't like women who are greedy for power or simply greedy for body."

"you are not."

"..."

"I'd be mad, but not at you. You're pathetic."

"……Pitiful?"

"Because of the merchant, you may have to maintain your status as a mistress for the rest of your life. I know the merchant, she really cares about Plato, but even she would not be able to accept something like this."

"..."

"Although I have already confirmed it through my ability this morning, I still want to ask you again. Can you bear it? Hiding in the dark for the rest of your life."

6 month 23 day.

Night.

An Xiaoxi didn't cook.

Sitting on the sofa in a daze.

think……

In the end, is it a good thing or a bad thing?
"Clap."

The door was opened. Besides An Xiaoxi, only Su Ming had the key.

"I'm sorry, I knew Xue'er would come today, but I didn't expect her to come directly here."

"Brother-in-law..."

I saw red marks on Su Ming's face.

"Don't get me wrong, it's not a slap. It's a lipstick mark that can't be wiped off."

"That...hole in the shoulder?"

"Well, getting bitten twice can get you to go to Eagle Country openly. It's not a loss."

"..."

An Xiaoxi didn't say anything else. She stood up silently and walked to Su Ming, staring at his face for a long time.

He reached out and hugged him again, pressing his face against Su Ming's chest.

"Brother-in-law."

"Ok?"

"Are you still going to be in charge?"

"It can only be this far. I thought that at least in front of Xiaoye and Xue'er, you don't have to act."

"But... that's what mistresses are like."

"..."

"Don't you want to take me as your mistress?"

"Already collected."

“It’s not collected this way…”

"..."

"Brother-in-law, I'm scared."

"..."

"What if... it turns out badly, and my brother-in-law breaks up with Sister Xia Ye or Sister Xue Er, what should I do? I... uh."

"I only speak when I'm sure."

Su Ming knew exactly what Miao Xueer accepted.

As long as she's not a casual woman like the ones in a brothel, if you talk to her seriously...she will definitely get angry in person, but she will always accept it.

Is that despicable?
But where is fairness today?

After establishing a de facto relationship with An Xiaoxi, the only thing to consider is how to make her appear in front of other people openly.

6 month 24 day.

noon.

Hilton Kyoto Hotel.

"Plato, have you ever thought about what the merchants should do?"

"She is now more than two months pregnant. The baby in her belly is your offspring."

"She was born in this era and her ideas are completely different from mine. She is the most tolerant person that can accept the existence of me and that guy."

"..."

"Tell me what you want me to do."

Do you need any help from Xueer?

No need to.

There's nothing I can do to help myself.

"Don't think I can't see that you never wanted her to be your mistress."

"Back then, the succubus with such a nice figure and such a sexy personality wanted you and wanted to recognize you as her brother. You had no intention at all."

"You often go to Jike's brothel, but I haven't heard that you have fun in the brothel."

"..."

"Although my ability is ineffective on you, I know why you come to me for help."

That doesn’t count as asking, right?

I just spoke in a serious tone, trying to convince her.

"Forget it, businessman, I don't have any good ideas. The only thing I can do to help you is to be nicer to her."

"Xue'er..."

"Shut up. If you praise me at a time like this, even a dog would know you are trying to please me."

"I just want to say that after not seeing you for a while, Xue'er seems to have become more beautiful again."

"What are you doing?! I have to meet with someone from the embassy... Ugh."

6 month 24 day.

in the afternoon.

It was a bit sudden.

There are guests at the apartment where An Xiaoxi lives.

"Oh, uncle is here too?"

"I didn't hear when you came to Kyoto."

Su Ming only met An Shiyao's stepmother once, at the wedding.

There were faint fishtail marks at the corners of her eyes, which made her look a little old, but she had black hair and delicate, bright eyes that were no less than those of a young woman, and her lips, which were often tightly pursed under her high nose bridge, showed her sporadic vitality. She looked like a very well-maintained woman.

It is because of this foundation that a daughter like An Xiaoxi was born, right?
"My uncle is getting more and more handsome."

"Have you been discussing business with the Snow Country's top brass recently?"

"It seems that Yaoyao has really found a good man who is capable and loves her enough."

"..."

There's no way An Xiaoxi can't help but panic, right?

The arrival was so sudden that only the living room was hastily arranged. The bedroom was still in the state where we had made love last night. At most, the window was opened to let in air.

"In fact, the old man heard from his friends that the uncle was in Kyoto. After asking Yaoyao, he found out that the uncle and Xiaoxi came back together."

"..."

An Xiaoxi and An Shiyao said that she was going to play with her friends, and this house had guest rooms anyway, which were more complete and comfortable than a hotel, so she would let Su Ming stay there for a few days. Was it exposed?

Normally, you wouldn't think about it that way, right?

6 month 24 day.

late at night.

"Brother-in-law, mom didn't notice."

"That's good."

"I was really shocked. Sister Xue'er just came yesterday, and today it's Mom again..."

"It's an oversight. I'm so active in Kyoto, and with your father's connections, it's normal for him to notice me."

"Except when school starts, Mom rarely comes to visit me."

"..."

"Brother-in-law...that...I encountered it."

"After all, it's night, after all, we're lying together, caring for the baby canteen."

6 month 25 day.

Night.

These are the last two days of my trip, and since my father-in-law already knows about it, I have to go visit him right away.

Bring two packs of fine tea and wine.

"You've been making quite a lot of noise in Kyoto recently. There have been a lot of guys trying to get close to me these past two days."

"..."

"As I said before, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. Don't be blinded by temporary benefits. You must remember that your current career is linked to the Snow Country. If you use the country's conveniences, you must have corresponding obligations."

"..."

"How is Yaoyao doing lately? Are you still busy with the hardware company? That company can no longer be considered a simple materials company now, right?"

"You can't let go of your career, just like when I was young. You have to take good care of her. If anything goes wrong, I will hold you accountable."

There are no twists and turns.

It was a very ordinary chat, a very ordinary teaching... Anyway, when facing the teachings of the elders, just listen and agree. The best attitude is not to take out the phone and not to look around.

6 month 25 day.

I don’t have any work, so I go out shopping with An Xiaoxi.

In Kyoto, you might unexpectedly run into someone An Xiaoxi's acquaintance, and that acquaintance might also know An Shiyao.

Therefore, no behavior that crosses the line can be allowed.

"This is the university's cafeteria in Area A. Turn around and walk about 20 minutes to get to Area B and Area C."

"The schools here in Kyoto are indeed much better than the key university I attended in Dong City."

"No... Many of them were newly built in the past two years. Look, the teaching building over there was renovated last year. It was very old before."

"..."

It wasn't a chance encounter.

After all, Kyoto University allows students to return to school early, and An Xiaoxi's best friend is not a native of Kyoto, so the most cost-effective way to come early is of course to stay at the school.

"This is Xiaoxi's brother-in-law, right?"

"Hello. I'm Xiaoxi's friend..."

"..."

I always feel that there is something wrong with the way An Xiaoxi's best friend looks at me.

Until I left the school.

"Well...she knows I like my brother-in-law."

"..."

"But he just knew that I had this idea. When we went on a trip, he always treated me as someone who had just broken up and comforted me, and wanted to introduce boys to me."

"is it?"

"There are indeed a few who are very handsome, but unfortunately, I am already married."

Only in a secluded place with no one around, such as the deserted grass in the small park behind the university during the holidays, can we hold hands.

"There are often couples here."

"I've been here to clean up as a volunteer before, and it was disgusting... I actually saw that kind of stuff, condoms and stuff... I was thinking, don't those people have any shame or fear of being discovered?"

"..."

"Now I feel that I can't see anything here at night. The person involved can't even see what his girlfriend looks like, let alone people passing by in the distance."

"..."

It was the first time we kissed outdoors.

"You can't touch the baby's canteen... your clothes will get messed up."

"Today is the last day, right?"

"Can we go to a hotel? I haven't booked a room yet..."

Are you talking about checking into a hotel with a man?

6 month 25 day.

It's a love suite.

There is everything in there, props, costumes, whatever you want.

After applying the essential oil, An Xiaoxi's whole body was glowing with a charming luster.

"Brother-in-law, do you want more?"

Combined with her reluctant but welcoming expression, it was pure paradise.

"..."

"I can't refuse... You've turned me into this."

"Suck it."

"..."

Su Ming hasn't used the bonus for a long time. He relies entirely on his own strength.

Normally, I can always satisfy An Xiaoxi within two hours.

But there is no way today.

"I'm not sleepy. I still need to..."

It lasted until dawn.

Looking at An Xiaoxi who was curled up beside me, her sleeping face looked very peaceful.

She really accepted the status of a mistress and tried her best to maintain it.

And what I can do has been done.

Xue'er is actually a very compassionate person. The fact that she was able to simply take some blood without hurting anyone and that she saved many children during the years when she was treated like a street rat was enough to prove it.

If you knew what An Xiaoxi was thinking, you would feel pity for her, right?

But I'd better not sympathize with myself.

I myself don't deserve sympathy.

What can be done afterwards is to speed up the materialization of the acquired technology, make money, build fortresses, or directly possess the ability to fight against possible disasters in the future.

After that... the baby in An Shiyao's belly should have been born long ago, and by then, she would tell him everything.

Get everything out there.

6 month 26 day.

A public toilet about ten kilometers away from the airport.

"I'm really not sad... um."

"It's so dry... This is obviously the bathroom. In the bathroom... What should I do if my clothes get dirty?"

Bend her legs in sneakers and let her lie on the toilet.

"It's my fault... I shouldn't have asked for a kiss at this time. But... because I have to do this for asking for a kiss, my brother-in-law is going too far."

"..."

"Brother-in-law, thank you... for wanting to compensate me so much."

"Let Xiaoxi's love come."

She responded with blurry eyes.

6 month 26 day.

board the plane.

Everything should have been normal.

But why did I receive this message?

[Brother-in-law, I'm sorry... I lied. ]

[My mother is a mature woman, so it was easy to find out.]

[She said that you can tell at a glance whether a woman has experienced pleasure. Women who have experienced it have different postures and expressions. I don’t know exactly what the difference is, but she said a lot more.]

[Haha... I'm really sorry. ]

[I didn't realize it. I might have... really looked at my brother-in-law subconsciously. The bathroom door was not closed in time. If you have a sharp eye, you can figure it out by looking at the two mugs.]

[Well… Actually, mom didn’t suspect me to that extent. It was when she questioned me that I was exposed. I thought mom knew everything.]

[In the end, she just thought I had a boyfriend. She never thought of him as her brother-in-law.]

[I'm sorry... I ended up blowing myself up.]

【…】

[I begged my mother not to tell anyone about this. I don't want to make anyone sad. I don't want my brother-in-law to be scolded for no reason. But I have troubled my brother-in-law so far because I... begged Sister Xue'er to accept me. Because of me, I made Sister Xia Ye angry. Because I... I am sure that I will feel guilty when I am with my sister.]

[My brother-in-law is actually a person who is unlikely to reject women like me and my sister who devote themselves wholeheartedly. He is easily taken advantage of and passively responsible. I really like... my brother-in-law's gentle personality.]

[Sister Xueer asked me.]

[Whether you are willing to hide in the dark for your whole life, I don’t think there is anything wrong with that. As for me, if I have the opportunity to hide forever, I can always get it. It is actually a good thing. ]

[But I can't be so selfish anymore. ]

[If I continue like this... sooner or later, a fool like my brother-in-law will definitely tell me to compensate me, even if it means he will break up with me for a long time. But even if I tell him, there will be many troubles. My mother will not accept it, and my father will not agree with it. My brother-in-law will definitely say that I don’t need to think about it, just leave it to him. I really thought about it... As long as I feel comfortable, as long as I can see my brother-in-law lying next to me occasionally when I wake up, it will be fine. I can touch my brother-in-law’s Adam’s apple... and then give him a sweet kiss while he is still sleeping. It’s too much... I didn’t know anything before, but it seems that I have become a completely different person after being with my brother-in-law for a short time. I can do and say all kinds of dirty things and dirty words. ]

[Brother-in-law, you don’t have to respond to my feelings passionately to be responsible. ]

[Can I just be a younger sister? Being a close younger sister, I can boldly and openly hold my brother-in-law's right arm when my sister holds my brother-in-law's left arm.]

[She can also be considered a mistress, right? ]

[After all, my brother-in-law has tasted everything I have, and everything has been taken away by him. When we are together, he completely understands what I am thinking. It's just that we won't be closer, but in return, I can look at my brother-in-law openly, and he doesn't have to feel guilty or remorseful, and I don't have to worry about him suddenly doing something stupid again. ]

[Is it okay? Well...if my brother-in-law really wants me, he can come to my place occasionally, or somewhere else. It doesn't matter. But...my brother-in-law doesn't just want my body. He is greedy and wants me to be inseparable from him for the rest of my life. Well, it's already like this. I'll never forget this kind of enthusiastic response.]

【I will remember this for the rest of my life.】

[Brother-in-law, take good care of my sister when you get back. If you feel guilty, compensate her more, but don't go too far... my sister will worry.]

"..."

"Dear passengers, please put away the tray table, turn off your mobile phone or turn on the flight mode..."

There is no cell phone signal.

Getting off the plane?

It didn't seem necessary. After all, An Xiaoxi wasn't going to disappear, she was just stating some of her thoughts. She simply said that she didn't need to act in front of An Shiyao anymore and just acted like an ordinary sister.

If you really want her, can you find a chance?

6 month 26 day.

Night.

get off a plane.

Called Mu Xueer.

"Plato, you are such a... jerk."

"..."

"I just came out of the consulate and I'm going to see her now."

"..."

"After all, she is the sister of a businessman. Can't she be more considerate? You are only concerned about your responsibility and asking me to accept it. Even someone like me who is not good at relationships knows that she is under a lot of pressure."

"..."

"You too! Don't let yourself handle the problems that arise. Why? You told Xia Ye that Xia Ye can help you share this mess, but I can't? I'm obviously... easy to fool, but I'm also a good woman."

Yes.

It is precisely because each one is better than the other that it is difficult to talk about.

An Xiaoxi's mother already knew about it, but she hadn't called to question him yet. How far had An Xiaoxi begged? It was definitely not the same process as that between him and Xue'er.

Self-destruct?
That's not An Xiaoxi's fault.

6 month 26 day.

late at night.

Knowing that Su Ming would be back today, An Shiyao finished her company affairs early and came back to tidy up the room.

Freshly cleaned duvet covers and bed sheets.

When she moved to the room where An Xiaoxi had lived before, she felt dazed again.

Is it an illusion?

How could that be? I lifted the quilt and sheets, and saw a small stain on the mattress, and a strange smell... Was it just saliva?

Well, although I have never seen Xiaoxi drooling while sleeping, maybe she just happened to have an indecent sleeping posture, and her head fell completely over, and drooled on the lower part of the bed sheet, staining the bed sheet and remaining on the mattress...

The curled hair embedded in the mattress might just be... the bathtub that Xiaoxi had used, and that Mr. Su Ming had also used, and she might have accidentally gotten some of it and not consciously brought it back to the bedroom.

That's for sure.
