I loaded the dream game

"It's a magic coin that can bring you happiness." Victoria explained with a smile.

Irena on the side quickly recognized it. It was the copper coin she had given to the girl when she had tricked her into... uh, helped her to divine a servant.

In other words, it was just an ordinary copper coin worth one gold coin, right?

... ......... 0

"But it does bring me happiness, doesn't it?" Victoria turned around and blinked at her.

Well, if you interpret it from this perspective, there seems to be nothing wrong with it.

Irena thought.

On the other side, Xia Zhi came to his senses and gradually understood something.

This copper coin may not be valuable in itself, but it should be a very memorable thing for the girl in front of him.

"This, is it really okay to give it to me?" she asked hesitantly.

As a greeting gift from a neighbor, isn’t it a little too expensive?

"It doesn't matter," Victoria replied, "After all, it has brought me the happiness I wanted."

In other words, she no longer needs this coin.

“So, I hope it can bring you the same happiness.”

...the happiness you want

Hearing this, Xia Zhi subconsciously raised her head and looked at the boy beside her.

Summer Solstice:…

Don't look at me, just accept it if you want to... After all, it's a gift from your sister-in-law, there's no need to be so polite.

Xia Zhi didn't know what the boy was thinking. After hesitating for a moment, she thanked him softly, accepted the gift, and then looked at the other gray-haired girl behind Victoria.

Irena:......

Well...we are so familiar with each other, so there should be no need to prepare gifts, right?

Wouldn’t it be enough for the parents to pay it on their behalf?

……Down.

Chapter 781: Ai Luke has a special mechanism for waking up

“Is this your world at Summer Solstice?”

Following Xia Zhi to his room, when there was finally no one else around, Victoria relaxed her restraints and exclaimed in curiosity as she surveyed the layout of the boy's room.

Looking at this girl, Irena seemed to see herself when she had just come into this world, full of freshness and curiosity about everything.

After all, this world is so different from theirs.

But, speaking of it...

Irena looked around and felt that the boy's room seemed to have changed a little compared to the last time she moved in.

For example

Her eyes fell on a set of bows and arrows hanging on the wall, and she looked puzzled.

I remember that when I came here last time, there was no such thing in his room, right?

"Please wait here for a while." Xia Zhi told them, "I will be back soon."

"Where are you going?" Victoria asked curiously.

"Go and wake up a little princess who loves to sleep in." Xia Zhi replied.

Little princess... ?

A hint of doubt appeared in Victoria's eyes.

Irena quickly realized that Xia Zhi was probably talking about Eluke.

After all, there is only that little princess in Xia Zhi's family.

"Then you shouldn't be back so soon?"

Irena, who knew how clingy Eluk was to the boy, said this.

"In the meantime, can we see what else is in your room?"

Although she had slept here last time, due to the relationship between the two at the time, it was only in name only, so she just slept here and basically didn't touch anything except the bed.

Isn't there a saying that goes like this? When you fall in love with someone, you want to know everything about him.

In fact, her curiosity about Xia Zhi's room is no less than Victoria's now.

"Whatever, it doesn't matter." Xia Zhi replied indifferently.

Anyway, he had already put away the things that couldn't be touched.

...Uh, I guess?

After recalling it in his mind and confirming that those particularly dangerous things had been stored and preserved in his personal universe, Xia Zhi left the room with peace of mind.

As the door was slowly closed, Irena breathed a sigh of relief. Just as she was about to turn around and say something, she found that the gray-haired girl had already lay down on the boy's bed, rubbing her cheeks against the pillow twice, with a happy smile on her face.

"..."

Can you not be so impatient? It's embarrassing.

Irena complained in her heart, feeling somewhat doubtful... Is this guy who is showing signs of late-stage summer solstice addiction really her "mother"?

……

After walking out of the room, Xia Zhi went straight to the door of Hubie and Eluke's room.

Considering there was no need to knock, he simply opened the door and walked in.

As expected, the curtains in the room were not drawn, making it a little dark. The little Star God girl was curled up on the bed, sleeping soundly, her body rising and falling slightly with her breathing, and she didn't seem to notice the arrival of someone outside.

Xia Zhi thought about it, and without turning on the light, he walked to the girl's bed.

"……Um?"

However, just as he squatted down and was about to wake up the sleeping Star God Girl, Ai Lu Ke seemed to sense something, and after moving his nose slightly, he slowly opened his scarlet eyes.

"Summer Solstice...Good morning~"

When she saw the boy beside the bed, a sweet smile appeared on her face and she happily stretched out her hands to him.

Seeing the girl wake up, Xia Zhi temporarily gave up the plan of tying her tails while she was sleeping, and reached out to pick up the girl who asked him for a hug from the bed.

Ailuko chuckled and leaned her head against his chest obediently.

"How did you know I was coming?"

Xia Zhi asked curiously.

Do you really have some kind of "summer solstice radar"?

"Because I smell you." Ailuko replied.

What kind of weird answer is this?

Xia Zhi couldn't help but think of the time when Xia Zhi used a kitten to find him by smell.

Are you a cat too?

He rubbed the girl's head and was about to put her on the ground, but Eluke held her tightly and refused to get down.

Well... Irena guessed right, Eluke was indeed very clingy when he just woke up.

Since they were already used to it, Xia Zhi didn't say much. He carried the girl downstairs and took her to the bathroom to wash up.

"…Summer Solstice."

After looking at his own pink tooth cup, Eluke hesitated for a moment, then raised his head and looked at the boy.

"what happened?"

"My toothbrush accidentally fell in there when I was brushing my teeth last night." She pointed to the drain outlet of the sink and said with some concern.

"..."

Xia Zhi looked at the place she pointed to, was silent for a moment, turned around and asked her:

"Why are you saying this now?"

"Because Hubie said you were busy last night and couldn't disturb you..." Eluko replied.

Xia Zhi recalled the night before he left this world... Well, he was indeed very busy "last night".

He did not blame the girl for anything. He bent down, removed the sewer pipe, and poured out the girl's children's pink toothbrush.

Fortunately, it didn't slide into the pipe below. ........

But, now it can’t be used anymore, right?

Xia Zhi sighed slightly and threw the girl's toothbrush into the trash can beside him.

"Ah, it's thrown away..." Ailuko showed a regretful expression...that toothbrush was picked for her by Xia Zhi himself.

"It's no longer usable. I'll buy you a new one later."

Xia Zhi patted her head to comfort her, then after thinking for a while, he took out his toothbrush and stuffed it into her hand: "If you don't mind, use mine instead today."

However, compared to the children's version used by the girl, his toothbrush was a little harder. I wonder if Ai Lu might not be able to get used to it?

Xia Zhi thought about it and looked at Ai Lu Ke beside him, only to find that she was staring blankly at the toothbrush in her hand, and her delicate white cheeks were inexplicably stained with a faint blush.

"...Ai Lu Ke?" Xia Zhi called her curiously.

"Ah? Hmm? W-what happened?"

Ailuko came back to his senses, quickly hid the toothbrush behind himself, looked at him nervously and asked.

"..."

What are you doing hiding my toothbrush?

Xia Zhi complained in his heart.

"If you don't like it, I'll go ask Xia Zhi and see if I can lend it to you..." he said after thinking about it.

"No, no!"

Upon hearing this, Ai Lu Ke hurriedly shook his head and denied it.

As if she was worried that the boy would be sad, she quickly said:

“I love the summer solstice the most!”

"Yeah, thank you so much." Xia Zhi rubbed her head and said.

It would be even better if next time you would stop pestering me and brush your teeth and wash your face by yourself.

　3.2 ……

In the living room, Hubie tilted his head as he watched Xia Zhi and the girl go into the bathroom together.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

She turned around and looked towards the kitchen

The sound of cooking covered the knock on the door, and Xia Zhi and Cong Yu, who were busy in the kitchen, didn't seem to hear it. Xia Zhi and Ai Lu Ke were still in the bathroom, and they probably wouldn't be able to come out for a while.

After thinking about it, Hubie jumped off the sofa, went to the door and opened it.

A girl with short light blue hair appeared outside the door.

"…Good afternoon, Yin Zi."

Hubie greeted the girl standing outside the door

"Xia Zhizheng and Ai Luke are in the bathroom helping her clean herself up, so they can't come out to see you for the time being."

Kong Yinzi: ...?

What should I do with him?
