Gensokyo, I am a slime, everyone loves me

After Bai Luo arranged a room for Inaba Tewi, he left to find people one by one according to the plan.

The first stop was the Scarlet Devil Mansion.

When Bai Luo mentioned that the younger generation would go to ask for red envelopes and gifts, Remilia immediately refused. She "authoritatively" declared that she was the head of the Scarlet family and told Bai Luo and the others to just come to her place to wish her a happy New Year when the time came.

Flandre, however, agreed without hesitation, and even moved directly into the Happy Hut despite Remilia's attempts to stop her.

Next, Bai Luo went to the Magic Forest.

Marisa was nowhere to be seen, and Alice needed to return to the Demon World and was expected to return only by the end of the year.

"Why can't I find anyone at such a crucial moment?"

Walking on the road in the Human Village, Bai Luo muttered discontentedly, only hoping that the next people wouldn't cause any trouble.

Since he didn't know Meihong's exact location, Bai Luo decided to go to the Terakoya first. It happened to be after school, and the children were rushing out one after another.

After the crowd dispersed, Bai Luo walked into the building.

Keine was tidying up the teaching materials on the podium. Seeing Bai Luo, she smiled gently.

"Are you here to find Meihong? Something came up at the guard station, she should be here in about ten minutes."

"Alright."

Bai Luo nodded and casually pulled up a chair to sit down.

Keine finished tidying the teaching materials, checked the time, and also pulled up a chair to sit down.

"Would you mind telling me why you're looking for Meihong?"

"To wish her a happy New Year together tomorrow, it's an old tradition from my hometown."

"New Year's greetings? Can you tell me more about it?"

Keine showed a look of interest.

"It's nothing much, it represents people's anticipation for the new year. During this time, younger people can ask older elders for red envelopes, which are gifts."

"I see, that sounds quite interesting. Then I'll leave Meihong to you tomorrow."

Keine's smile deepened.

"No problem."

The two chatted for a while.

Footsteps came from outside the door, followed by Meihong walking in.

"Sorry, did you wait long? A Youkai was causing trouble, and those guys couldn't handle it."

"It's alright, guess who's here."

Keine said with a smile.

Meihong followed her gaze and turned to look below the podium, she was startled when she saw Bai Luo.

"Bai Luo? Why are you here?"

"Do you not welcome me?"

Bai Luo retorted.

"How could that be?"

Meihong shook her head in a panic, "I was just curious why you'd be with Keine."

"I came here to wait for you, what else would I be doing?"

Bai Luo stood up and opened his arms towards her, "Come here for a moment."

Meihong walked over, puzzled. Just as she reached him, Bai Luo took two steps forward and pulled her into a hug, whispering softly:

"Meihong, do you like me?"

Meihong's body trembled, her eyes widened, and she froze.

Even Keine covered her mouth in shock, blinking her eyes repeatedly...

"You don't like me?"

Bai Luo released her, turned around, his tone full of disappointment.

"I like you."

Meihong also reacted. Although she didn't know why it was so sudden, since Bai Luo asked, there was no need to be shy anymore.

Bai Luo's lips curved upward. He turned around and, before Meihong and Keine could react, kissed Meihong's lips.

Meihong's eyes widened, her mind went blank, and she stood rooted to the spot in a daze.

Keine was also stunned for a moment, then her cheeks flushed slightly, and she quietly turned her head away, but her peripheral vision was secretly peeking at them.

Lips intertwined.

After a long time, Bai Luo pulled back, his eyes filled with a smile.

"I like Meihong too."

Meihong was kissed into a daze and nodded blankly.

Looking at Meihong's silly appearance, Bai Luo sighed helplessly. He hadn't even used the Bewitchment Art on her, yet it felt more effective than if he had.

However, seeing Meihong's adorable contrast when facing him, Bai Luo actually found it quite nice.

"Remember to come over to my place tomorrow morning. Of course, you can come over now and stay at the Happy Hut tonight. Ask Keine about the specific details."

After Bai Luo finished speaking, he kissed Meihong again and then left.

Watching Bai Luo leave, Keine walked forward, reached out and poked Meihong's burning cheek, and lightly coughed:

"Meihong?"

Meihong broke free from her thoughts and looked at Keine, her ears bright red, her eyes hazy, clearly still immersed in the kiss and not having recovered.

"It seems my Meihong is truly pure."

Keine teased.

Hearing this, Meihong finally woke up, her cheeks burning intensely. She really hadn't expected Bai Luo to suddenly kiss her, and even say that he liked her back.

She had originally thought today was unlucky, but it turned out to be a lucky day.

As for the irritation Meihong felt in her heart, it had been completely replaced by joy.

...

Meanwhile, Bai Luo had already arrived at the Hakurei Shrine, found Reimu, and explained his purpose.

Wishing a happy New Year.

Asking for red envelopes?

Reimu readily agreed. Leaving aside her unbreakable friendship with Bai Luo, she was also very willing to participate in something like asking for red envelopes.

Silver coins, gold coins, and even all sorts of valuable gifts, Reimu imagined the scene with a beaming smile, absolutely planning to melt down a huge gold offering box then.

Bai Luo didn't disturb her fantasy, quietly left, and went to Hakugyokurou instead.

He didn't see Youmu practicing her sword in the cherry garden. Bai Luo searched around and finally saw an incredible scene inside the house.

Yuyuko and Youmu were sitting at a table.

Yuyuko was picking up meatballs and feeding Youmu, who, despite having a face of utter despair, still obediently ate them, occasionally looking up at Yuyuko with a complicated expression, as if enduring some kind of pain.

Bai Luo immediately felt a bit strange.

No matter how he thought about it, it didn't seem right.

With Yuyuko's personality, it was already good that she didn't hog all the food; how could she actively feed someone else?

"Young Master Bai!"

Youmu saw Bai Luo, as if she had seen a savior, and quickly stood up to greet him.

"Xiao Bai Luo is here too, come quickly and eat together. I put a lot of effort into making this meal today."

Yuyuko greeted him warmly, handing over her chopsticks and bowl.

"The meal you made?!"

Bai Luo was incredibly surprised, staring at the three dishes on the table, wondering if the Yuyuko in front of him was someone else in disguise.

"Yes! I cooked it myself!"

Yuyuko nodded heavily, looking certain, "It tastes very good, Youmu even cried while eating it."

Hearing this, Bai Luo's interest grew even more. Facing such an extremely rare situation, he immediately took the bowl and chopsticks and sat down.

Youmu was frantically giving him eye signals, but Bai Luo didn't notice at all. He directly picked up the bowl, grabbed a piece of braised pork, and put it in his mouth.

It melted in his mouth.

Sweet, spicy, sour, very sour, salty...

In an instant, Bai Luo felt himself being assaulted by countless flavors, and at the same time, the Great Sage's notification sound came from his mind—

[Toxin Immunity +1]

[Toxin Immunity +1]

Chapter 70: The First Day of the New Year.

A new year, a new beginning.

On this day, Bai Luo, uncharacteristically, didn't sleep until noon. He was busy in the kitchen early in the morning, preparing breakfast for everyone.

Of course, it wasn't because of the new year's atmosphere or changing bad habits.

The reason was simple.

He was woken up early in the morning, with two people lying beside the bed, tightly hugging Bai Luo's arms, Kaguya on the left and Flandre on the right.

"I'll take over the rest, Youmu, go out and call them for breakfast."

Bai Luo said, seeing only one dish left, and turned his eyes to Youmu.

"Okay."

Youmu took the dish and carried it out.

Bai Luo quickly finished the last dish and carried it out as well.

Only Flandre and Inaba Tewi were at the table, while Youmu, Reimu, and Kaguya were nowhere to be seen.

"Kaguya, Reimu, breakfast is ready, come out quickly!"

Youmu's frustrated and strained voice came from the hallway.

Bai Luo's eyelids twitched slightly. He could already imagine the scene of Youmu desperately pulling them while they remained motionless.

Suddenly, Bai Luo remembered something, opened a gap to the outside world, stepped in, and arrived at a bedroom.

"Jian Zi! Get up..."

Bai Luo's voice stopped abruptly.

He found Si Gu Jian Zi lying on the bed, seemingly having a nightmare, her brows tightly furrowed, her hands gripping the blanket tightly, and her slightly open mouth continuously saying something like 'no'.

As a weight was added to her lower abdomen, Si Gu Jian Zi's brows furrowed even tighter. As if dreaming of a great horror, she suddenly opened her eyes and sat up, her breathing heavy.

Looking down, the blanket was still the blanket, the bed was still the bed, she couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

No.

Si Gu Jian Zi's pupils trembled violently. She could clearly feel something pressing down on her.

It's okay.

Such a weak evil spirit, she just needed to forcefully dispel it with Youkai power, like before.

Si Gu Jian Zi comforted herself while circulating the Youkai power within her body.
