Collapse? No, this is just everyday life.

Before she could even begin to break free, Ellie released her and moved on to another target.

"Seele is still so cute! Come on, call her 'Sister Alice'!"

"Um... Sister Airi..."

"Wow!!! So sweet, so sweet! No wonder Ah Yu likes you so much, now I totally understand~"

"Huh? Does brother like Seele that much? Hehe..."

After gently rubbing Seele's head and absorbing some of her adorable energy, Airi turned her gaze to Kaguya, who had a curious expression on her face.

"You are, Ah Yu's fiancée?"

"Ah."

Kaguya had never met Alicia before, only heard about her from Bronya and Seele. Now that she had met her in person, she was naturally quite curious.

Wow, another beautiful girl.

Looking closely at Kaguya, although she was only wearing a simple long dress, the temperament she exuded while sitting on the sofa, and her relatively restrained Eastern beauty, were exquisite and not ostentatious, like a fine wine that could intoxicate one just by looking at her.

After letting go of Seele, Ellie moved closer to Kaguya and hugged her arm, despite Kaguya's somewhat stiff expression.

"You're so beautiful! Your charm and elegance are captivating, even I'm drawn to you. By the way, you can call me Sister Alice, just like Seele does~"

Airi's eyes practically lit up when she looked at Kaguya.

"Um... Sister Airi..."

Kaguya was still a little embarrassed to call her "older sister," and being suddenly treated so intimately by someone she didn't know well made her, who was relatively introverted, feel uncomfortable.

It was precisely because Ellie was a girl, and someone her husband knew very well, that she didn't actively try to break free.

Noticing Kaguya's pleading look, Nangong Yu dragged Airi's luggage over, put it aside, and then turned his palm into a knife, gently tapping Airi's head.

"pain!"

She quickly covered her head and looked up at him angrily.

"I know you're excited today, but Kaguya is a bit introverted. Let's wait until you two get to know each other better before getting any intimate physical contact like this."

"is that so?!"

"Ah."

Faced with Airi's probing gaze, Kaguya nodded somewhat shyly.

"Don't worry, we'll be good friends soon, after all..."

Airi smiled and winked at Kaguya: "I love being with beautiful girls the most~"

Being praised so directly, Kaguya, with her rather traditional personality, naturally couldn't take it, and turned her head away with her face flushed.

"It's really cute~"

After harassing Kaguya, Airi finally turned her attention to the last person.

Kiana was sitting alone to the side, enjoying the entertainment, when she noticed Alicia's probing gaze and her heart skipped a beat.

"Ai, Ellie-neechan, it's been so long!"

She forced a smile and greeted them, then stood up and said, "Haha, I won't bother you anymore, I'm leaving now."

Before anyone could respond, Kiana took off running.

Relying on her sixth sense, gained at the expense of her intelligence, she always felt that something bad would happen to her if she stayed here.

"Don't overthink it. Kiana and I have nothing to do with each other. I'm just here to have some fun today."

Understanding the meaning in Ellie's eyes, Nangong Yu quickly said something.

"Huh? So that's not true?! That child is so cute!"

Ellie responded in shock.

"Does this mean I have to take advantage of every cute one of them?!"

"Isn't that right? For my sake, Ah Yu, can't you even try a little harder?!"

"?"

Suddenly, something strange caught Nangong Yu's mind. When she came to her senses, she noticed the sly expression on Ai Li's face and immediately understood.

"Don't slander my innocence."

He pinched Ellie's cheek, then turned and picked up the suitcase next to him.

He weighed the not-so-heavy item in his hand and asked in confusion, "Is that all?"

"Of course not, but you should know very well how efficient international express delivery is, right, Yu?"

"That's true."

He nodded, then saw Ellie suddenly raise her hand.

Looking around, Ellie's smile immediately turned meaningful as she glanced at Bronya and Seele. "So, where am I going to stay tonight?"

......

Early in the morning, her biological clock woke Nangong Yu up precisely on time.

I opened my eyes and looked at the unfamiliar ceiling, and my consciousness gradually became clearer.

He reached out and touched himself, but found nothing in the empty space. He sat up, the thin sheet slipping down his body. Looking at the quiet studio around him, he couldn't help but sigh.

He suddenly understood the proverb "Three monks have no water to drink".

It was only after Ai Li asked that question yesterday that Nangong Yu realized this big problem.

There are only two bedrooms in the house; the other rooms have been converted into spaces such as studios and walk-in closets.

It was impossible for Airi to share a room with Kaguya, and it was even more impossible for Airi to share a room with him.

After careful discussion, Nangong Yu was successfully sent to the studio.

He set up a bed he had used for camping before, laid out a blanket, and this would be his little nest where he would stay for the next few days.

Bronya, Seele, and Kaguya are now all crammed into his big bed, while Ellie is staying in Kaguya's room.

Downstairs, Bronya had already gotten up early, holding a cup of coffee and studying various materials on her laptop.

The day before yesterday, Nangong Yu only gave her some general ideas and a rough map model he had sketched. As for the specific details, she would need to study them carefully.

As for Kaguya, she was assigned to learn about various firearms in order to lay a solid foundation for improving her gun handling skills in the future.

According to the promises that Yu made to them, this would be a game that could revolutionize the current FPS gameplay, which made them all quite excited.

In the public's perception these days, FPS games are nothing more than holding a gun and shooting at other players from behind cover, or wantonly unleashing firepower to suppress monsters. They wondered what this new gameplay would be like. The two of them asked for a long time and even tried to tempt Seele to act cute, but Yu just smiled and didn't reveal a single thing.

Seele was played for ages and didn't get a single piece of information out of her; she's really useless.

"I'll show you the plan once it's finished."

He always said the same thing.

At that moment, a noise from the stairwell interrupted her thoughts, and Bronya subconsciously raised her eyebrows.

There, Yu, who had clearly just woken up, was stopped by Ellie, who was wearing a nightgown.

She approached Yu, tiptoed closer, and smiled sweetly.

"Don't move, let me see myself in the mirror."

Looking intently into his eyes, she raised her hand and gently brushed her pink bangs back a few seconds later. Suddenly, Ellie smiled and leaned down to give him a quick kiss on the corner of his mouth.

She took a step back as if dancing, then bent slightly at the waist with her hands behind her back, her body curving into an alluring silhouette. Looking up at Yu, she smiled and said, "As expected, you're still a perfect beautiful girl today~"

Bronya rested her chin on her hand and watched quietly.

I thought I would feel jealous like I did yesterday, but now that I've seen it, I find that I don't actually dislike it that much.

When something I was so worried about actually happens to me, it suddenly doesn't seem so serious anymore.

But Yu... actually blushed?

Ellie really knows her stuff.

A slow smile crept onto Bronya's lips as she silently took notes in her mind.

"Duck, you're up so early! What are you busy with?"

Ellie had a wonderful morning with her lover. In a good mood, she soon spotted Bronya sitting in the living room. After Yu went to wash up, she skipped over to her.

With her arms resting on the back of the sofa, she peeked out and asked curiously.

"The map design for the new game, taking into account the difference in terrain, seems quite interesting. Also, Ellie, my name is Bronya."

Bronya took a sip of coffee and said calmly.

"Huh? Don't you think it's cute when Duck says it? It's normal for a beautiful girl like Bronya to have one or two nicknames."

Then, Ellie changed the subject: "Of course, if that nickname makes you uncomfortable, Bronya, then I won't call you that. After all, I wouldn't do anything to hurt a cute girl like you~"

"...It's not that bad...Never mind, whatever you want."

Bronya glanced at her pitiful face and sighed helplessly.

Even though she sees me as a rival, when we actually face each other, I really can't bring myself to dislike her.

After breakfast, Nangong Yu sat on the sofa, took out her phone, and started writing something on it. She would also make a short call or two from time to time.

"Ayu, what are you doing?"

After chatting with Kaguya for a while to deepen their relationship, Airi quickly came over, hugged his arm, and leaned against him.

Feeling the softness enveloping her entire arm, Nangong Yu suppressed her inner turmoil, put down her phone, and said with a smile, "It's nothing, I just wanted to ask if it's possible to check in early at St. Freya."

"in advance?"

"Ah."

Nodding, he continued with a slight headache, "The company is too far from home, and it's quite inconvenient to travel back and forth. On the other hand, it's closer to St. Freya. The production of the new game is gradually getting on the agenda, and it's not appropriate for the three of us in charge to continue living at home. Besides..."

He looked at Ellie, lowered his head and kissed her cheek, saying fiercely, "I don't want to live alone in a room anymore."

Upon hearing this, Ellie raised an eyebrow, a smile playing on her lips as she muttered to herself, "Hmm~ then tonight, I might stay up very late. After I wash up, this dazed fairy might wander into the wrong room. Ah Yu, remember to lock the door properly, and don't let me go to the wrong one~"

"Don't worry, I'll definitely lock the door!"
