Chapter 23 Qilin's Abnormality

Night deepened.

Everyone had already fallen asleep.

However… in a corner where no one was paying attention, the media player that Su Bai had placed in his pocket on the bedside table was faintly emitting a dim light.

-----------------

The next morning.

Su Bai rubbed his still sleepy eyes as he woke up—today was Qi Lin's day off, she didn't have to go to work.

He got up, washed up, and when he came out of his room, he saw Qilin preparing breakfast in the kitchen.

For some reason, Su Bai felt that Qi Lin today... seemed a little different from yesterday.

But he couldn't quite put his finger on what was different.

In the kitchen, Qi Lin wore an apron around her waist, her long hair loosely tied up, revealing a faint scar on her forehead.

She hummed a little tune as she skillfully flipped the food in the pan with the spatula.

Seeing this, Su Bai helped set out the bowls and chopsticks and waited quietly for Qi Lin to bring the dishes to the table.

Qi Lin set the plate down, then naturally pulled out the chair next to Su Bai and sat down, looking at him with a smile in her eyes.

Su Bai was unaware of this "abnormality"—if he were in his complete form, he would have noticed it immediately:

Yesterday, Qi Lin was clearly a little reserved sitting across from him; how come she's acting like this today...?

Unfortunately, Su Bai's soul has not yet fully recovered, so he naturally cannot perceive these subtle changes.

He picked up a piece of green vegetable and put it in his mouth, his eyes immediately lighting up:

"Mmm, delicious!"

Qi Lin smiled and placed another piece of food into his bowl:

"Eat more if it's delicious, Xiaobai~"

"Um!"

Su Bai nodded vigorously and buried his head in his food.

"Little White~" Qi Lin called softly.

Su Bai stopped what he was doing and looked up at her:

"What's wrong, Qilin?"

Qi Lin smiled slightly and reached out to gently wipe the rice grains from the corner of Su Bai's mouth, amidst his bewildered gaze.

"Call me... Sister Qilin~"

As she spoke, she naturally put the grain of rice between her fingers into her mouth, closed her eyes, and nodded slightly as if savoring some delicacy.

Su Bai felt that Qi Lin was a little different today, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what was wrong.

"Sister Qilin."

However, he still obediently changed his tune.

Upon hearing this address, Qi Lin couldn't help but narrow her eyes—

It was as if they had heard an exceptionally pleasant melody.

Breakfast ended in a subtle atmosphere.

Although Su Bai felt that Qi Lin was a bit "strange" today, the delicious food and Qi Lin's gentle attitude made him quickly put that strange feeling behind him.

"Little White~"

"Um?"

"After dinner... will you come shopping with me?"

Su Bai thought for a moment—since he didn't have anything else to do, he nodded:

"it is good."

Seeing that he agreed, Qi Lin's smile deepened.

"Well then, as a reward for your promise to go shopping with your sister..."

Upon hearing the word "reward," Su Bai's eyes lit up, and he immediately wanted to suggest going to the food street again—

Ke Qilin seemed to have already guessed his thoughts.

Before he could speak, she leaned forward gently and placed a light kiss on his forehead with her soft lips.

It has a warm touch, a slight dampness, and a faint fragrance.

Su Bai was completely stunned.

They parted immediately upon touching, without lingering.

Seeing Su Bai's stunned expression, she couldn't help but smile with a hint of smugness.

Do you like it?

She asked with a smile.

Su Bai did not answer immediately.

He raised his hand and touched the still slightly damp spot on his forehead.

"I don't know either..." He blinked, somewhat confused. "It feels... so strange. I... can't quite put my finger on it."

Qi Lin couldn't help but laugh when she saw Su Bai's adorable, "CPU overloaded" expression.

"Okay, okay, I'm not teasing you anymore." She reached out and ruffled his hair. "Go change your clothes, let's go out."

Su Bai nodded obediently, got up, and went back to his room to change. Halfway there, he turned back and whispered:

"Sister Qilin... was that also a kind of 'reward'?"

Qi Lin blushed slightly, a hint of shyness flashing through her heart, but she maintained her composure on the surface:

"Hmm, what's wrong?"

For some reason, a faint blush appeared on Su Bai's face—even he himself did not understand why.

"Then..." he asked softly, his eyes filled with a mixture of expectation and confusion, "In the future... can I ask Sister Qilin for such a reward again?"

Qi Lin's heart skipped a beat when she heard this question.

She looked into Su Bai's clear eyes.

There was no ambiguity or flirtation there, only pure, straightforward anticipation.

"...Okay." She heard herself answer softly, her voice gentler than she had imagined, "But only when I think you've done well."

"Yes!" Su Bai nodded vigorously, as if he had received some great promise. "I will do my best!"

Qi Lin couldn't help but laugh, and reached out to ruffle his hair: "Alright, go change your clothes."

Su Bai happily ran back to her room, while Qi Lin leaned against the wall, gently pressing her hand against her chest.

While Su Bai was changing clothes—

Exit of the Styx Insect Bridge

A figure flew out from the distorted spatial passage.

Her flowing golden hair stood out under the starlight, and the pair of pure white wings behind her clearly identified her as an angel.

As Angel Yan flew off the Great Insect Bridge, she lightly touched her ear with her finger:

"Ah-Zhui".

"Sister Yan!" A-Zhui's voice rang out immediately, filled with obvious joy.

"What is our 'little cleverness' doing now?" Yan's lips curled into a "finding fun" smile.

Upon hearing this, Ah-Zhui seemed to recall some unpleasant memories, and her tone carried a hint of reproach:

"Sister Yan~"

"Hehe~ Alright, alright, I won't say anymore." Yan replied with a light laugh, "I've already arrived at Pluto, and I'll be on Earth soon."

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, the two ended their call.

After hanging up the communication, Yan flew straight towards the asteroid belt near Pluto.

When she saw the area that was clearly "missing," she couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice:

"Phew... Seeing it in person is definitely more shocking than watching it live."

Even after a whole night, just looking at this section of the meteorite belt that had been wiped clean... one could still feel the terror of that attack.

Her gaze shifted towards Earth, a profound look flashing in her eyes:

"The future of angels... or the end of angels..."

"Let me observe you carefully."

Instead of heading to Earth immediately, Yan flew slowly along the edge of the asteroid belt that had been erased by "Eternal Silence Wheel".

Her eyes turned silver-white, activating her Eye of Insight.

Countless streams of data swept across her field of vision, attempting to analyze the traces left in this space.

And the result...

Needless to say,

No useful information was parsed.

Even with forced parsing, given Angel Yan's current computing power... it might crash in no time.
