Delta: Taming wheat in a dream, I, Said

Saturday.

Bai Kang was woken up by the sound of the message.

Like most people, his first instinct upon waking was to reach for his phone next to his pillow.

"Hmm, it's 8:30."

I rubbed my eyes, and it took me a while to shake off the blurry feeling.

[Shocking! The strongest operator in history, Dr. Bee, has handed over a military artillery shell to the nation. This is his 21st red collectible item. How much longer can this legendary operator go?]

The Demon King Club's nationwide college entrance examination motivational speech series has successfully concluded. Let's thank the Demon King Club for their efforts.

[Even before the college entrance exams have begun, the Gods Club has already invited five students to join.]

Five operators with four skills have awakened at a middle school in Japan.

……

Before even unlocking the main interface, a barrage of messages popped up.

It's basically all content related to the Delta, which shows the Delta's terrifying influence.

Bai Kang stared at the interface for a long time, then couldn't help but chuckle.

"Haki Bee? The strongest operator in history?"

I will tell you in the most straightforward, direct, unambiguous, objective, accurate, systematic, truthful, concise, easily understood, and unpretentious way: I couldn't hold back.

However, Bai Kang was somewhat surprised that the bee doctor handed over military artillery shells, and this was the twenty-first piece of red collectibles handed over.

Yes, that matches the drop rate for Hagi Bees.

With one click, Bai Kang cleared the pop-up window and opened a WeChat account, where there were several unread messages.

Butterfly, Mai Xiaowen, Zoya, Hao Ren...

He first opened Butterfly's chat interface.

Good morning!

The accompanying photo shows a butterfly holding milk and eating dumplings, its puffed-out cheeks looking adorable.

"This is my breakfast. The milk is delicious. I'll bring you a bottle on Monday."

Bai Kang stared at the picture for a long time. Die seemed to have just gotten up, dressed very languidly, her spring skin revealing a V-shaped abyss.

"Did you do this on purpose?" Bai Kang typed a question.

The other end replied instantly, "What?" accompanied by a puzzled emoji.

Bai Kang smiled. He suspected that this girl was deliberately seducing him. Who takes pictures of breakfast or selfies?

Silently save the image.

"Very cute, but I prefer to see the legs. Remember to include a leg photo next time you post a picture."

On the other end of the phone, Die's eyes widened as she glanced down at her bare, white thighs. Her face flushed, and she muttered, "You pervert."

"good……"

Upon seeing Die Hui's message, Bai Kang's lips curled into a smile.

Switching to the next screen, Bai Kang clicked into Mai Xiaowen's chat interface.

Wheat: "Come with me to see Grandma this afternoon."

"Okay, call me when the time comes."

Bai Kang cut into Zoya's chat interface.

The haughty young lady: "Xiao Kangzi, log in."

"Next time, next time, Xiaomai asked me to accompany her to see her grandma this afternoon."

Zoya frowned. "Little Kangzi, why do you have so many excuses? The day before yesterday, when I asked you to log in, you said you were too tired and would come tomorrow. Yesterday, when I asked you to log in, you said you were out with your friends. Can't you play with me? Say something!"

Even though Zoya wasn't in front of him, Bai Kang still shrank back. This young lady was really playing it for real, and he was actually a little traumatized by her.

"No way, it's really urgent. Tomorrow, definitely tomorrow."

"Heh, I'll trust you one more time. If you still have excuses tomorrow, I'll make sure you can't be a man anymore."

……

At 3 PM, as agreed.

Bai Kang arrived at a coffee shop and quickly found Mai Xiaowen.

There was no way around it; Mai Xiaowen was too easy to recognize even with a mask on.

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

Bai Kang sat down opposite Mai Xiaowen. It wasn't even three o'clock yet, so he wasn't late, which meant that Mai Xiaowen had arrived early.

Mai Xiaowen's style today is ladylike, wearing a white long dress and a sun hat, which is very pleasing to the eye.

"No, I just arrived recently." Mai Xiaowen shook her head, then looked up and froze. "You're dressed like this?"

Bai Kang was also taken aback, looking down at himself.

Wearing shorts with a short-sleeved shirt is perfectly normal, and he even specifically chose a relatively new outfit.

"What's wrong?"

Mai Xiaowen said softly, "You're dressed...like a high school student."

Bai Kang blinked, thinking to himself, "I am a high school student, so isn't it normal for me to dress like one?"

"What I mean is, you could dress a bit more mature," Mai Xiaowen explained.

Bai Kang said helplessly, "There's nothing I can do, this is already my best clothes."

Mai Xiaowen frowned, wanting to say something, but then remembered the information about Bai Kang that Zoya had found out.

I almost forgot, Bai Kang is an orphan... I shouldn't have such high expectations of him.

Thinking of this, Mai Xiaowen's gaze softened, and she said softly, "Come on, I'll take you to buy clothes."

As she spoke, she stood up and grabbed Bai Kang's hand.

In that instant, it felt as if a clear stream had flowed through my body, and all the capillaries in my body dilated.

That's right! That's the feeling! So comfortable!

Mai Xiaowen's pupils dilated slightly, she pursed her lips, and her ears flushed red.

【Intimacy Level +1】

She didn't let go; instead, she gripped his hand even tighter and pulled Bai Kang away from the coffee shop.

"Hey, I just got here and I'm thirsty."

Mai Xiaowen shoved the quarter of her fruit tea into Bai Kang's hand. Don't ask why a coffee shop would have fruit tea; it's just not a proper place.

"Drink this, we're running out of time. We still need to pick out clothes, don't keep Grandma waiting."

Bai Kang took the fruit tea, stared at the slightly flattened straw, and blinked.

This... counts as an indirect kiss, right?

However, Mai Xiaowen didn't mind, and he certainly wouldn't mind either, happily sipping her fruit tea.

Mmm, it tastes really good.

Mai Xiaowen led Bai Kang to the nearest shopping mall, looked around, and found a fairly well-known chain store.

Normally, Mai Xiaowen would never choose a second-tier store like this, but Yuncheng is not like Mianyue City, and this store is already the best clothing store.

Without saying a word, Mai Xiaowen led Bai Kang into the clothing store.

"Pick him an outfit suitable for meeting his parents," Mai Xiaowen requested.

The female employee's eyes lit up; this tone clearly indicated that the person was not short of money.

"Okay, young man, please come this way."

The female employee quickly picked out a retro-style outfit.

"Young man, you can try this outfit. It's neither ordinary nor flashy, and it's perfect for meeting the parents."

Bai Kang nodded, but then realized that Mai Xiaowen was still holding his hand. He whispered, "Shall we hold hands again later?"

Mai Xiaowen was taken aback, then quickly let go, stammering, "Who, who likes to hold hands..."

Bai Kang smiled slightly, refrained from teasing Xiaomai, took the clothes from the young lady, and went into the changing room.

A little while later, he walked out and said, "Something feels off. Xiaomai, can you take a look and see what's wrong?"

"Your collar isn't straight."

Mai Xiaowen came up to Bai Kang, her fair little hand wrapped around his neck, and gently straightened his collar.

Her movements were natural, and her face was expressionless, just like a couple deeply in love. And it was precisely this naturalness that made her even more captivating.

Bai Kang stared at Mai Xiaowen's profile. In his eyes, Mai Xiaowen looked like a wife tidying her husband's clothes, a very heartwarming scene.

thump!

His heart began to pound uncontrollably, like muffled thunder.
