Yes, I did all of this!

Duanmu Mo nodded to her and continued speaking into the phone: "I understand your child's situation, but whether it falls into any specific category requires further investigation. Locking him up won't help..."

After brushing the snow off Duanmu Mo's scarf and trench coat in the entryway and hanging them aside, she returned to the kitchen to cook with Shen Wuyin.

Xia Yan, Shen Wuling, and Cang Yuan were still playing cards when they heard Duanmu Mo's words. Xia Yan turned her head slightly and asked, "What is he saying?"

"I don't know." Shen Wuling shook her head: "Mr. Duanmu won't let me hack into his phone."

She looked at Xia Yan: "But what about you? After your body was affected by the magical girl's energy before you transformed, didn't your hearing increase?"

Xia Yan listened attentively for a while, then shrugged:

"I can't hear it either. Right now, my body is just more resistant to hunger. As for further improvement, I have no idea. I asked Yuzhi to ask Cangyi, and she said there's no need to rush this step."

"...They were talking about 'heaven' and 'faith' on the other end of the phone," Cang Yuan suddenly said.

“This thing…” Shen Wuling frowned: “Isn’t it just Leviathan’s method?”

"Ah."

Cang Yuan nodded and looked at Duanmu Mo, saying, "The recent news seems to be all about this."

"This is never going to end," Xia Yan sighed. "Should we continue?"

"Never mind, it's time to eat." Shen Wuling shook her head and placed the cards in her hand on the table, and Cang Yuan did the same.

After chatting with the other end of the line for a few more minutes, Duanmu Mo hung up the phone, sighed, and stretched: "Ugh, what was all this about?"

"What's going on?" Xia Yan turned around and asked.

"It's nothing, it's not really related to the request." Duanmu Mo said, sitting down. "A lady wants me to stop her injured child from participating in any strange activities."

"..." Upon hearing Duanmu Mo's words, Yu Zhi paused in her actions in the kitchen.

"What's wrong?" Shen Wuyin noticed her movement and asked.

"No... I just thought of some things."

Yu Zhi shook her head, smiled, and then took the plate out.

"Dinner's ready."

"Oh."

Duanmu Mo responded and picked up his chopsticks to eat some food.

But with a snap, Xia Yan's chopsticks caught his chopsticks, causing Duanmu Mo to pause in his movements.

"Ok?"

"Have you forgotten something?" Xia Yan stared at Duanmu Mo, her smile somewhat stiff.

Before Duanmu Mo could speak, Xia Yan picked up a piece of vegetable leaf and handed it to him.

Chapter 476: Feeding, Foot Bath

"what--"

Xia Yan opened her mouth, about to stuff the vegetable leaf into Duanmu Mo's mouth.

Seeing Xia Yan's reluctant actions, Duanmu Mo couldn't help but shake his head:

"There's no need for that, I can eat this myself."

"We've already agreed on this, so stop dawdling!" Xia Yan urged, reaching for her chopsticks again. "Hurry up, or the sauce will drip onto your clothes!"

"Why......"

Helpless, Duanmu Mo opened his mouth and ate the food she had picked out for him.

"Honestly, you set these rules yourself, yet you're still being so pretentious..." Xia Yan muttered.

"But you were the one who asked to be fed, weren't you?" Duanmu Mo wiped his mouth and watched as she picked up another piece of rice.

"Enough with the nonsense!"

"..."

Xia Yan showed no mercy in feeding him, completely disregarding the fact that Duanmu Mo was chewing, and shoved the next piece of rice into his mouth as if doing so would increase his eating speed.

"Let me do it, Senior Xia Yan."

After Yu Zhi and Shen Wuyin finished feeding Duan Mu Mo the remaining food, seeing this scene, Yu Zhi sighed and stopped Xia Yan's actions.

"Alright, but you should be careful too. Duanmu Mo is quite difficult to deal with." Xia Yan sat back down, shook her hands, and seemed to be feeling tired.

"..."

Duanmu Mo didn't want to waste any more words on her. He silently chewed his food and then waved his hand, saying, "No need, I'll eat the rest."

"Let me try it first. If Mr. Duanmu doesn't like it, then he can eat it himself."

Yu Zhi picked up a piece of meat, held it to Duanmu Mo's lips, and looked at him with concern.

Duanmu Mo could only nod and open his mouth to accept Yu Zhi's feeding.

—However, what is surprising is that Yu Zhi's care is different from Xia Yan's. Every time she feeds someone, she makes a catching motion under Duanmu Mo's mouth to prevent food or juice from dripping.

Furthermore, she was constantly watching Duanmu Mo's throat, and would only hand him the next serving of food after he had swallowed.

The meticulous care gave Duanmu Mo a comfortable experience, a feeling far superior to when Xia Yan fed him.

Watching Yu Zhi earnestly feeding the child, Duanmu Mo suddenly felt that the Yu Zhi in front of him seemed to have changed from the Yu Zhi in his memory.

It seems like a change in temperament, and even her appearance has improved.

Back when Duanmu Mo first met Yu Zhi, she was just a fifteen-year-old girl, unloved by her parents. She had to balance her identity as a student and a magical girl, so she naturally had a haggard look in her demeanor, appearing sensitive and fragile.

And perhaps because she lived alone, Duanmu Mo noticed that she was rather thin and looked quite young.

Now, after Yuzhi has gone through so much, she has companions she can rely on, her strength has grown a lot, and she has adults she can trust... She should be able to trust them.

In short, after nearly a year of changes, Yuzhi has also begun to grow in all aspects. She has become more confident in her temperament, and the budding flower has blossomed, beginning to release the unique charm of a young girl.

Yu Zhi's shoulder-length hair seems to have grown a bit. It's probably because the pressure from the old man crow and the raider in Fengchuan City was too much, leaving her no time to cut it, so she simply let it grow.

In terms of appearance, the growth is not obvious. But there are subtle changes from every angle, as if she has shed her immaturity. Although she is still a bit naive, she has become a young woman.

Her eyelashes are more curved, and her lips are more rosy, giving her a unique charm that lies between innocence and maturity.

Before he knew it, Duanmu Mo had almost finished his meal.

Looking at the empty bowl in front of him, Duanmu Mo chewed his food, thinking to himself—he vaguely remembered that he had once commented on Yu Zhi, saying that she had a kind of youthful maternal instinct.

Putting the thought out of his mind, Duanmu Mo wiped his mouth:

"I'm stuffed."

"That's good." Yu Zhi smiled. "How are you feeling?"

"..." It seems quite nice to eat under her service like this, Duanmu Mo thought to himself. After a moment of contemplation, he replied, "Obviously, much better than Xia Yan."

"Hey!" Xia Yan shouted in dissatisfaction.

Duanmu Mo didn't seem to care much. He stood up and exhaled, "I'll ask Yuzhi to help when I have time, but I'll eat by myself most of the time."

"Yes, I'll feed you whenever Mr. Duanmu calls me."

"It's just a lost bet, a month will be enough." Duanmu Mo waved his hand, sat down on the sofa, and opened the news.

"—Recently, there have been signs of similar events worshipping strange figures in Kamishiro City and surrounding cities. Citizens are advised to be vigilant and report any such activities to the police immediately..."

—Dinner time is over, now it's time to do whatever you need to do.

If no one invites her to play, Cangyuan will just stand in front of the fish tank and watch the fish as usual, as if she could watch the fish's movements forever.

Xia Yan and Shen Wuling didn't play cards either. Although it was fun, it couldn't replace the video games they were used to playing in the short term.

Yu Zhi and Shen Wuyin were washing the dishes, and when they had time, they would stay by Duanmu Mo's side, or they would play on their phones and listen to music.

This is the daily life of six people, a warm and interesting life.

"Ha~ I've finished the series, the difficulty level has increased way too much."

Xia Yan put down her game console, stretched in her dining chair, looked at Shen Wuling, and asked, "What are you still playing?"

"Speed ​​through," Shen Wuling said without looking up.

"Tsk, I don't understand you." Xia Yan looked around, her gaze settling on Duanmu Mo.

"..."

A thought flashed through Xia Yan's mind, and a sly smile appeared on her lips, her face flushed with excitement.

"By the way, give me two pieces of your chewing gum."

"Didn't you already eat?" Shen Wuling opened the game menu, took a bottle out of her pocket, quickly tossed it to her, shook her hands, rested for a moment, and then continued playing the game.

Xia Yan took the pills, stood up, put the two pills in her mouth, and walked towards Duanmu Mo.

"Hey."

—As Duanmu Mo was reading the newspaper with his glasses on, Xia Yan came up from behind the sofa and patted him on the shoulder.

"What's wrong..." Duanmu Mo turned around and saw Xia Yan's face close to his, and then their lips met.

Duanmu Mo was taken aback. Just as he was about to push her away, he felt two cool-tasting things being pushed into her mouth.

"Hmm~"

Shen Wuling was engrossed in playing a game, Cang Yuan was staring blankly at the fish tank, Yu Zhi and Yin were still washing dishes in the kitchen, and Xia Yan was kissing Duanmu Mo so passionately that the two pieces of chewing gum became soft in each other's mouths under their push.

Soon, Xia Yan parted ways with Duanmu Mo and returned to her original spot as if nothing had happened, continuing to play the game and casually pushing the bottle of chewing gum to the position of Shenwu Bell.

"..."

Shen Wuling's expression remained unchanged as she took it back.

From her vantage point, she shouldn't have been able to see anything, but the Zero System in her mind was best at calculation. She could calculate what was happening behind her in a matter of minutes, no matter what was happening behind her.

—Even without calculation, it doesn't matter. Based on Shen Wuling's understanding of Xia Yan, she can guess what Xia Yan is going to do.

But so what if they guessed it? Xia Yan dared to do this in the living room, so she must not be afraid of being discovered.

To avoid any awkward or troublesome situations, Shinma Rin could only pretend not to see anything and continue playing the game.

"ah......"

The speedrun went wrong, and this save file is no longer usable.
