Their romance storyline only begins on the second playthrough

……

...

"Hmph hmph hmph~"

Ivina was in a good mood as she carried the books she had found in the living room, intending to use them to supplement her knowledge and learn unfamiliar words.

Felicity had gone back to her own room, while Natalie had run to Rhodes's room.

So now she's left alone, a leisurely person, to read books at her leisure.

For her, learning this knowledge and understanding more about the world is enough to make her happy.

Having broken free from the emptiness of the world, she can now perceive more colors simply by touching things...

Of course, she was also a little scared.

I'm afraid that if I go on a date the day after tomorrow, my old problem will flare up again...

"I don't want to think about these things anymore; I still have to work hard."

She quickly shook her head, her fair fingers gripping the large book she was holding tightly, and calmed herself down.

but--

At that moment, she felt a strange sensation.

"Huh?" Ivina suddenly frowned and touched her belly.

I don't feel quite right.

"Something doesn't feel right... Hmm, I'll go to the bathroom first and come back to check later."

She threw the book on the table and stood up.

But in that instant, her legs suddenly went weak, causing her to collapse onto the sofa behind her.

"Hmm...?"

She instantly covered her mouth, forcibly suppressing the sound that was about to come out.

Here comes the problem.

My mouth was covered, but my train of thought couldn't be interrupted.

well known.

Cecilia = Ivina.

In other words, she was experiencing a shocking change in her body at this moment, and she was very clear about what these sensations meant.

What's going on?

Is Cecilia crazy? So late at night...

The curses echoed in her mind. She bit her lip and endured the pain as she got up.

There's no way we can stay like this in the living room; we should at least go to the bathroom first.

The problem is that, despite her despair, she felt the sofa was incredibly far from the toilet.

Yes, it seems as if this distance is the most distant space in life—

The world is cruel.

Life is not beautiful.

The fountain in the square outside was still working normally, but right now, all she wanted was for everything to be quiet.

Her face also turned into a dead fish eye of utter despair.

……

...

Ultimately, Rhodes spared Cecilia.

Rhodes knew very well that this level of contract was not really enough to harm Cecilia, nor could it truly break her defenses or make her blush. Otherwise, he would probably be the one in trouble later.

Or rather, it was just a slight way to suppress her constant trouble-making, and besides, it was already getting late, so of course she needed to come back and take care of things at the apartment first.

Well, Natalie, we're still waiting for him.

Twenty minutes later, he composed himself, returned to the apartment, and opened the door.

"Hmm?" Rod saw Ivina kneeling on the floor wiping it with a rag and smiled. "Ivina has learned to clean up after all."

He looked at Ivina with a hint of doubt, only to meet her even more ferocious gaze. She gritted her teeth and shouted:

"I beat you to death."

"???"

Three question marks appeared on Rod's forehead.

Oh no, what did he do to offend the ancestors?

"Ivina, what's wrong...?"

He bent down slightly, wanting to pat Ivina's head to soothe her suddenly erupting emotions.

But at that very moment, Ivina grabbed his hand and said fiercely:

"Don't you know what my relationship with Cecilia is? You're such a big pig!"

"..."

Rhodes's expression froze instantly.

what.

Yes.

Chapter 143 Help me wash my clothes!

He had just realized that Ivina could share her senses.

But once he started teasing Cecilia, he actually forgot all about it.

Wait.

He looked at the wet floor that Ivina was wiping with a rag, and at the same time, he could clearly smell the fishy smell in the air...

Could it be...?

His body stiffened.

"Heh." Ivina looked over with a sneer. "Now you know what's going on, right? Still cleaning the furniture? I'll clean your ass."

"I'm so sorry, my dear Ivina..."

At this moment, after cleaning up the last bit of stuff, Ivina stood up with a dark expression.

"Take it."

She shoved the rag into one of Rod's hands, then reached out with her other hand and grabbed the hand that had been holding Rod's.

She led the staggering Rod towards the toilet.

"Cough cough...that's because her body is a little abnormal, so I..."

"So you made her body even more abnormal?" Ivina glared at Rhodes with her crimson eyes. "Use your brain and think about me for once!"

"sorry."

Rhodes is still very honest.

I still have to apologize for accidentally letting Ivina break down.

Even if he put himself in her shoes and thought about it, he would feel ashamed for Ivina just seeing this mess.

Nonsense, this is the lobby...

If Felicity and Natalie were to come out at the slightest sound, Ivina would truly be facing a complete social and personal death.

While desperately experiencing the sensations in her body, she was also afraid of being discovered, so she could only cover her mouth tightly.

After thinking for a moment, Rod coughed softly.

"Enough talk! You wash all of these things!" Ivina said through gritted teeth, completely exasperated.

"I see."

Just wash it.

He was pulled into the toilet by Ivina.

However, the toilet in Rhodes' apartment wasn't really a toilet in the traditional sense.

This is a relatively spacious space that combines clothing washing, body cleaning, and other functions.

Behind the curtain is a small hot spring for bathing, while in front is a place for rinsing and washing clothes. And at the very back is the actual toilet.

However, it seemed that Felicity had just used it, so even the area in front where things were washed was shrouded in smoke, and water droplets condensed on the wooden floor.

The lights from the ceiling shone down, creating one or two hazy beams of light.

Ivina walked over to a small wooden stool with the words "Made by Phillips" engraved on it, threw the towel into the bucket, and turned on the tap to fill it with water.

But at the same time—

Before Rhodes could react or even prepare herself, she bent down, lifted her dress from underneath, and threw it into the barrel.

At this moment, the girl's slender, snow-white waist and her fish-like back were all reflected in Rhodes' eyes.

It's soft and bouncy, and looks just like pink cotton.

"Huh?"

"Eh what?!"

"No, it's just changing clothes or something..."

"It doesn't matter," Ivina said casually, though her eyes looked a little awkward.

It doesn't matter anymore. After all, to be honest... the two of them had already showered together last time, so what's the big deal?
