Collapse? No, this is just everyday life.

"It's nothing, it's just that there's too much information in this world, and I'm having trouble processing it all."

For the first time, he saw a somewhat complicated expression on Ellie's face.

"Whoo~"

After a few seconds, Ellie took a deep breath, a smile returned to her face, and she gently shook her head: "Ayu, this is truly a wonderful gift."

As she spoke, she pouted somewhat discontentedly: "But, did you suddenly bring it out like this to see me lose my composure? That's really malicious of you."

"No, no, I just got this spot during dinner tonight, and I couldn't resist coming straight here to find Sister Aili."

Smiling and scratching his head, Nangong Yu said.

"That text message from last night?"

"Well, that's it."

After speaking, Nangong Yu paused, then looked at Sister Aili and asked somewhat nervously, "So, Sister Aili, what is your decision?"

The air seemed to quiet down at that moment, and the increasingly violent pounding of his heart could be clearly heard in his ears.

"A decision? I think there shouldn't be any reason to refuse such a good thing, right?"

"Really? That's great!"

Seeing the slightly puzzled look on Ellie's face because of her question, Nangong Yu naturally realized that she had been overthinking things and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

His appearance startled Ellie for a moment, then she burst out laughing.

She stood up from the chair and took two quick steps to his side. Ellie took his hand in hers, her fingertips touching his slightly rough palm, and chuckled as she spoke.

"Don't use too much filter when you look at me."

She raised her other hand and poked his cheek, making him look away shyly.

"After all, Sister Ali has been my idol since I was a child..."

"You~"

Her voice grew even gentler. Ellie withdrew her hand and cupped his face in both of hers, letting his dark eyes be reflected in her pink crystal pupils.

A bright smile bloomed like flowers, and as they gazed at each other, she softly said, "There is no such thing as a transcendent fairy in this world. She is just Alicia who likes Ayu."

The voice, brimming with affection, almost instantly drowned out Nangong Yu, his throat choked so tightly that he couldn't utter a single word.

As soon as she finished speaking, Ellie gently tightened her grip, pulling him into a tight embrace. In that simple hug, he heard Ellie's voice again in his ear.

Do you remember what I said at the beach?

"Ah."

Nangong Yu nodded gently, inhaling the fragrant scent of flowers, burying half his face in Ai Li's neck, closing his eyes, and recalling the scene from that time. That memorable trip to the seaside was a beautiful memory he would never forget for the rest of his life.

"Now, my wish has come true!"

She gently rubbed Yu's cheek and continued softly, "Ailisia's lonely journey ended a year ago. Now, her hand is being held, and there are footprints beside her. Yu, will you let go of my hand?"

"of course not!"

The resolute response brought a smile to Ellie's face, and she hugged him tighter, her expression filled with a hint of longing.

"So, why would Ayu think I would refuse? Do you want to see everyone in the family still young and beautiful in the future, except for Sister Aili who looks old and out of place, and is looked at differently by everyone?"

Her voice carried a hint of playfulness, which made Nangong Yu quickly shake her head.

"No, no, no, how could I possibly have such a thought? I want Sister Ellie to always be by my side."

"That'll do it!"

She raised her arm slightly, gently stroked his hair, closed her eyes, and leaned close to his ear. It was at this moment that Nangong Yu heard her soft murmur.

"Our lives have become intertwined and inseparable. My time, my youth, everything I have are naturally willing to linger for you, to stay for you in this most beautiful moment."

"because I love you."

Those three simple words instantly made his breathing heavy.

"Sister Aili, I..."

Their bodies parted slightly, and the words that were about to be uttered were gently pressed down by a slender, pale finger.

Close your eyes and tilt your head back slightly; this action is self-evident.

However, the two, already deeply in love, completely forgot that there was another person in the room.

Sitting not far from Nangong Yu, Kaguya silently watched this scene.

No, this sudden turn of events has put her in a very awkward position. She doesn't know whether to leave or stay, so she sits there stiffly, listening to those somewhat seductive voices.

It wasn't until the two started tearing at each other's clothes that Kaguya finally realized she needed to make a decision quickly.

Should I get up and leave immediately, or...?

Choose to join?

Honestly, we were discussing something important—how to make gene adjustments a month from now—and it turned out like this.

With a sigh, Kaguya blushed slightly and began to unbutton her clothes.

......

"Why aren't you resting?"

On the third-floor terrace, Kaguya, dressed in thick pajamas, walked over and asked Airi, who was sitting on a chair.

She was holding a cup of hot tea, staring blankly at the bright moon in the sky, and didn't even hear Kaguya approaching.

"I can't sleep, Kaguya. You know, girls sometimes have a lot on their minds."

Kaguya's voice finally brought Airi back to her senses. She put down her cup, turned around, saw who it was, and immediately gave a sweet smile.

He shifted his position slightly to the side, making room for Kaguya on his recliner: "Kaguya, come, sit here."

Even though there were several empty chairs, Ke'ai Li was slapping the chair next to her repeatedly.

Such intimate contact... After a moment of surprise, Kaguya shook her head and walked over to sit down next to her.

We've already done *that* kind of thing together, so what we're doing now is nothing.

With the soft jade in her arms, Airi smiled even more happily, snuggling against her and saying, "Kaguya, you really have a great figure."

Kaguya blushed for a moment, then gently pushed away Airi's cheek that was rubbing against her chest: "It's too crowded."

"Hey, we're practically inseparable besties thanks to Ah Yu, don't be so reserved, let's be a little closer~"

Feeling her cheek being rubbed again, Kaguya didn't resist this time, and sighed helplessly.

After basking in the glow of the beautiful girl's energy for a while, Airi lazily lay back down and asked, "Kaguya, what brings you here? Where's Ayu?"

"Come and see where you've been. As for your husband, he's too tired and is sleeping soundly."

Speaking of this, Kaguya suddenly felt a little guilty.

Using the excuse that her husband needed to rest, she tricked Bronya and Seele into going to her room to rest, but in reality, she and Ellie were stealing from her.

"Really? I heard that gene editing can specifically adjust that kind of ability, is that true?"

The curious voices around her made Kaguya even more embarrassed. She nodded with a forced laugh, "It should be true."

"But gene editing, it really does feel like a science fiction story."

With a sigh, Ellie looked up at the boundless night sky: "But this is quite nice. I don't have to worry about getting old quickly, or about the years leaving their mark on me. I can also spend more time with the people I love. I was planning to take a spontaneous trip when we're old, but it seems that's not necessary."

"travel?"

"Yeah, Ah Yu can't make games forever, he'll retire someday. And then I'm planning to travel the world with him!"

"Then why didn't you go?" Kaguya asked curiously.

"Silly girl, because we weren't old yet back then!"

Hearing this, Kaguya paused for a moment, then smiled: "You're right."

Then, she changed the subject: "Would you mind having another travel companion?"

"Of course I don't mind, but it can only be done after Ah Yu and I have traveled together for three years!"

Ellie held up three fingers and chuckled as she spoke.

"Three years? Aren't you afraid that Seele and the others will protest by then?"

"It's okay, I'll leave you a letter later, and then I'll just elope with Yu~"

"You~"

The two looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh, lying on their chairs and laughing quite happily.

The night wind was still a bit chilly, so Kaguya poured herself a cup of hot tea. The warm tea made her feel much better immediately.

Kaguya let out a long sigh and leaned back comfortably in her recliner, gazing at the bright moon in the sky. She suddenly remembered Airi's dazed look when she arrived and asked curiously, "Airi, what were you thinking when I came over?"

"Ok?"

Ellie blinked and replied with a smile, "It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered some things from when I was little. Doesn't Kaguya do that sometimes? Does she reminisce about her childhood?"

"...No, my childhood was filled with cold-hearted relatives and strict teachers; there's nothing worth remembering."

However, she can now face those less pleasant memories with equanimity, after all, she is already happy enough.

She often wondered if the hardships she had endured in the past were for the sake of meeting her husband. In this way, her past memories were given a shimmering glow.

"That's it..."

Ellie's expression changed for a moment, then she smiled again: "Then, Kaguya, would you be interested in hearing a short story, a short story about Ellie?"

Upon hearing this, Kaguya smiled and nodded.

"Appreciate further details."

Chapter 187 A Paradise Born for One Person (17/22)

Many years ago, one morning, by a path in an unnamed forest, a welfare home director named Seria found a pink-haired baby in swaddling clothes.

The child cried out to her, and a feeling of pity welled up in her heart. She bent down and carried the child back to the orphanage. From then on, the pink-haired little girl had her first home.

Time passed little by little, and a few years later, the girl gradually grew up.
