Collapse? No, this is just everyday life.

But...

A little bit of revenge is still necessary.

There was a snap.

Nangong Yu controlled the smart AI to turn off the living room lights, leaving only the faint glow of candlelight in the room once again.

A malicious smile spread across Nangong Yu's face from the shadows. He slowly began, "Since that's the case, how about I tell you an interesting little story?"

Startled by the sudden darkness, Kiana became excited upon hearing Nangong Yu's voice.

"Okay, okay, I'll give you a bad review if it's not scary!"

She opened her eyes wide with anticipation, completely unaware that Seele's body suddenly trembled upon hearing Nangong Yu's voice, or that Bronya quietly approached Nangong Yu and hugged his other arm.

"Really? Then Kiana, you'd better listen carefully..."

With a smile, he slowly recounted a story from his past life, a story called "Silent Hill PT".

......

"ah!!!!!!"

"Stop, stop, stop! Don't say anymore! Please stop talking!!!"

Kiana and Mei huddled under the covers, shivering, while Kaguya and Bronya huddled together, clearly terrified as well.

Hearing the screams echoing in the living room, Nangong Yu, with a trembling Xi'er hanging on his body, smiled and walked upstairs, concealing his accomplishment.

Chapter 141 Kiana: What's going on? Why is it like I'm the only one who's not doing well?

In the early morning, the faint light shining through the window successfully woke up Nangong Yu's biological clock.

He slowly opened his eyes, feeling the pressure on his body, and his still somewhat confused mind subconsciously controlled his gaze to look downwards.

A head that was fast asleep rested on his chest, and drool from the corner of its mouth soaked half of his shirt.

Upon seeing this, he immediately showed a look of disgust, but soon noticed something was amiss.

Upon closer inspection, that head of white hair could only belong to Kiana.

Turning his gaze, Nangong Yu noticed a hand tugging at his clothes, curled up and sleeping Mei Yi beside him. Helplessly, he covered his face with his hands.

Memories of last night began to surface in my mind.

......

"Brother, hurry up..."

Not long after returning to the bedroom, Xi'er was teased until her clothes were half undone, her eyes were glazed, and she urged him in a sweet voice.

Just then, the bedroom door suddenly opened, and Bronya and Kaguya rushed in, startling Seele so much that she froze, clutching her body in shock.

Nangong Yu wasn't much better off. Somewhat bewildered, he was dragged downstairs by Bronya, Kaguya, and Kiana and Mei, who were peeking out from the doorway, and pinned down in the center of a makeshift bed that had been added to the floor sometime during the day.

After a while, he finally understood the reason and was at a loss for words.

After he told such scary things, the four little girls were so scared they didn't dare to go to sleep.

Only having Nangong Yu by their side could bring them a sense of security. Bronya and Kaguya had originally planned to come up and squeeze in with them, but that would probably leave Kiana and Mei alone in the living room, so they had no choice but to resort to this measure.

Moreover, Kiana and Mei wouldn't feel so awkward if everyone were together.

Thinking of this, Nangong Yu sighed.

Forget it, I'd better get up early while I'm still awake, so I don't feel awkward later.

She carefully pulled her arm away from Seele's embrace and tugged at the hem of Mei's clothes.

Gently place Kiana aside, then pull your legs away from Kaguya and Bronya's embrace.

After struggling for a long time, he finally managed to free himself and tiptoed carefully to the bathroom to wash up.

Just then, Mei and Kiana, their faces slightly flushed, opened their eyes.

They glanced at each other, then pretended nothing had happened and closed their eyes again.

......

"It tastes pretty good!"

At the breakfast table, which was much busier than usual, Nangong Yu ate the breakfast that Mei had made and praised it with a smile.

"Of course! Mei's cooking is the best!"

Kiana was clearly praising Mei, but she became smug first.

"It wasn't you who did it."

She glanced disdainfully at the noisy Kiana, then playfully stuck out her tongue. Her eyes darted around, looking at Seele next to Nangong Yu, then at Mei, before finally speaking to him with a mocking tone.

"Ayu, tell me, is Mei's cooking tastier or Xier's?"

Upon hearing this, Xi'er's chopsticks, which were holding food, froze for a moment. She turned to look at her brother with a smile on her face, as if she wouldn't care what her brother said.

Mei immediately glared at Kiana reproachfully, then tapped Kiana's head with the tip of her chopsticks, warning her, "Eat your food and don't talk nonsense!"

"It's alright, Seele doesn't mind."

It would be a miracle if I didn't care; I clearly care a lot.

Nangong Yu, who knew Seele inside and out, thought to herself, then casually said, "They all look pretty good."

"Hey~ isn't this cheating?"

This "no offending either side" approach was clearly not going to satisfy Kiana, and ignoring Mei's warning, she muttered it again.

Nangong Yu glanced at Kiana briefly, noticing Seele's continued gaze, and could only continue, "However, in terms of taste, I still prefer Seele's cooking."

I'm sorry, Mei. He can tell the difference between being full at one meal and being full at every other meal, and this kind of statement won't bother Mei too much.

Upon hearing this, a look of satisfaction appeared in Seele's eyes, and her smile became even sweeter.

After finishing their meal, Kiana and Mei weren't in a hurry to leave.

They had completed all their high school hours and received their acceptance letters from St. Freya University. They just needed to go to the exam hall at the end of the semester. Like Nangong Yu, they had started their pre-enrollment vacation early.

As for why I received St. Freya's admission notice so early, well, those who know, know; those who don't, there's no need to say more.

With nothing to do, we sat in the living room chatting.

Nangong Yu lay on Xier's lap, stretching out comfortably.

Stared at by Kiana and Mei, Seele blushed slightly, gently pinched her brother's cheek as punishment, and then simply acquiesced.

Anyway, everyone knows about their relationship; it's just a lap pillow, there's no need to be so shy.

"That's great~"

Kiana looked at Nangong Yu with envy and sighed. As soon as her gaze shifted to Mei, Mei glared at her and tapped her on the head.

"Fine, don't give it to me then! And you hit me, Mei! You're so mean!"

Kiana covered her head and said angrily.

Kaguya walked over with a plate of cut fruit. Bronya, who was sitting next to Seele, picked up a portion and started eating with a toothpick, occasionally feeding Yu a few bites.

"Speak of it."

Chewing on a sweet and sour apple chunk, Nangong Yu asked Mei, "Mei, what kind of job are you planning to do after you graduate from university?"

"Huh? Me?"

Mei, who was also eating fruit, paused for a moment, then frowned and thought for a while before slowly shaking her head: "I'm not quite sure yet, but I'll probably inherit my father's company in the end."

She is the only child in her family, so ME Corporation naturally needs her or her husband to inherit it.

"So you didn't know what to do at the beginning?"

"Well, we'll see if there's a suitable opportunity to train later."

Hearing this, Bronya laughed and retorted, "Stop beating around the bush, just say you want to invite Mei to our company."

"Is your company... Gensokyo?"

Mei's eyes lit up slightly, clearly showing that she was interested.

"I was just about to say it, what's the rush?"

Reaching out, Nangong Yu pinched Bronya's chubby thigh, then retorted before looking at Mei and continuing, "Yes, it's Gensokyo. Mei, you know that Bronya, Kaguya, and I all want to focus on game development, and Seele is our secretary. So, we're missing someone we can trust in the company's management."

So you chose me?

"Don't use such cold words, it should be 'invitation,' you know what an invitation is~"

Smiling, Nangong Yu shook her finger and took another bite of the apple Bronya handed her: "As the sole heir of ME Corporation, Mei, the education you received from childhood probably makes you understand how to manage a company better than all of us. Moreover, Gensokyo has only been established for a short time, and Pokémon is enough to show its future potential. Isn't this a great opportunity for you to train and learn?"

Without denying Nangong Yu's words, Mei smiled helplessly, then looked at the four people opposite her with gentle eyes: "Really, what you're saying puts a lot of pressure on me."

So you're saying you agree?

"Your offer alone is enough to tempt me, plus the opportunity to work with my favorite friends, I can't think of any reason to refuse."

Nangong Yu blinked, exchanged glances with Kaguya, Seele, and YaYa, and then said in unison, "Well then, welcome to the team~" *4

"Oh my, how about we have a small party at noon to celebrate?" Seele clapped her hands and said happily.

They had actually discussed inviting Mei a long time ago, and today just happened to be the opportunity to bring it up.

With excellent grades, a gentle personality, patience, and a responsible attitude, they really couldn't think of anyone they knew better than Mei.

"We really need to celebrate, Seele. How about we go out to buy groceries together right now?"

"Okay~"

"There's no need for such a grand ceremony."

Mei scratched her cheek, feeling a little embarrassed.

"No, no, no, this definitely needs to be celebrated. We were worried that Mei wouldn't like our little temple and might not agree, but now we can finally breathe a sigh of relief."

Hearing Nangong Yu's voice, Mei became even more embarrassed, puffing out her cheeks and retorting, "You're all going to invite me, how could I possibly refuse?"

"Don't listen to what this guy is saying, he's just teasing you on purpose."

Bronya pinched Nangong Yu's cheek and said with a smile, then stretched and said in a lazy voice, "But your presence really helped a lot. Now I don't have to deal with those things and can focus on making the game."
