Doctor will never die in a hellish situation.

Then she glared at Lappland.

You stupid dog, you've successfully angered me. Let's start the war!

The Texas player has joined the battle, while the Blue Poison player is warming up.

Wouldn't it be especially funny if Ah Neng, who did nothing, won in the end?

Chapter 4, Section 110: If I had known the system could also be a trap...

The next morning, Qin Duanyu's alarm clock rang to the sound of soft music.

"It's 10 a.m. now. Did you have a wonderful evening? But please remember to take care of your health while you're partying. The temperature today is 34 degrees Celsius, so please take precautions against heatstroke and sunburn. Finally, I highly recommend the Hagen Queen series of iced drinks from Siesta."

As expected of a tourist city, the accommodation experience was simply indescribable. Although there were advertisements mixed in with the audio, the gentle and considerate female voice made it impossible to feel any annoyance.

Qin Duanyu stretched and got out of bed.

Last night, Lappland got drunk and kept saying he wouldn't lose to Texas or something. I guess the two of them had some kind of conflict again, which is why he had to carry his drunk dog all the way back.

As a result, whether she felt too comfortable or it was just her sleeping posture, she actually locked both hands around Qin Duanyu's neck and her legs tightly wrapped around his waist, and she couldn't get off no matter what she did.

Fortunately, they encountered Amiya and the others who had returned from their revelry, and managed to drag the stubborn Lappland away and throw her onto the bed. Otherwise, Qin Duanyu would not know what to do next.

Even though he enjoyed the close contact with Lappland, and was even kissed after giving her the gift, he ultimately felt that Lappland didn't mean anything by it, and that it was more like a prank he had decided on the spur of the moment.

No one understands the system better than him, no one.

In the emotional status section provided by the system, there is a distinction between trust and liking. Although the first three levels are friendly, trusting, and harmonious, differences will appear as the relationship develops.

For example, even though they are all at the fourth level, Ifrit, the little dragon, is shown as "respected," which means she sees him as a reliable older brother. However, Blue Poison, Melantha, and Platinum are shown as "close," which speaks volumes.

Operators like Texas and Exusiai, who are on loan, don't see this kind of thing because they already have their own allies. But Lappland has signed a contract and is a genuine Rhodes Island operator.

However, she used the Trust level, which reached the same level of Respect as Ifrit and far exceeded that of other operators. This undoubtedly shows that the nature of their relationship is at most that of comrades-in-arms or good brothers.

The system wouldn't betray him, would it? Or was he supposed to wake up the next day face-to-face and hear Lappland say, "I've always considered you a brother, but you bastard, you want to sleep with me?"

It might not be made into a mille-feuille, but just thinking about it makes me feel awkward.

"Doctor, are you awake? Everyone is ready to go to the beach." Accompanied by a rhythmic knock, Blue Poison's concerned voice came from outside the door.

"It'll be ready soon!" He quickly dismissed his unrealistic thoughts, put on his clothes, and welcomed the girls in.

"Doctor, I remember I was the one who got drunk last night, right? How come you woke up later than me?" Lappland teased him about his weak constitution as usual.

"If it weren't for me, you would have been picked up like a corpse. You stupid dog, at least be careful..." Qin Duanyu retorted irritably, but stopped halfway through her sentence.

He casually opened Lappland's attribute panel, only to find to his surprise that the original "emotional status" section had somehow changed to "favorability," whereas it had been "trust" just yesterday afternoon.

"System, why did trust level turn into favorability? Why didn't you remind me of something so important earlier?" After confirming that favorability had changed from "respect" to "intimacy", Qin Duanyu couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

No wonder Lappland, who has a good alcohol tolerance, got "drunk" and clung tightly to his neck after returning. It was like he pushed away a piece of meat that was offered to him.

[The host previously chose to disable related change notifications, therefore they are not displayed.]

The system's concise and powerful response reminded Qin Duanyu of how the incident began.

With so many operators in Rhodes Island's operations department, just a few pats on the head and a casual chat every day can generate a ton of notifications about changes in trust levels. Especially after learning about the benefits Qin Duanyu secured, the trust level notifications have been nonstop ever since they stepped into Siesta.

He turned off the reminders because he found it troublesome, but he didn't expect it to backfire.

Habitual thinking is really harmful, no, it's the system that's misleading me!

……

Siesta has excellent air quality, and the sea breeze blowing in your face is full of tropical scents. Walking in the shade of palm trees, surrounded by beautiful girls with different styles, should have been a happy experience.

But missing out on a big project made Qin Duanyu feel like she had lost out big time.

Such an important matter requires the right timing, location, and people. This opportunity is fleeting, and Lappland is acting as if nothing happened. Clearly, yesterday's event was just a spur-of-the-moment decision influenced by a combination of factors.

Who knows when she'll be this proactive again?

Even if he really did choose to be a beast and do nothing all night, it would still be a huge boost to their relationship.

"Doctor, what's wrong? Did you not sleep well last night?" Amiya asked with some concern, noticing that Qin Duanyu was not in a good mood.

"You're probably seeing things, aren't you? Never mind the Doctor, let's go buy swimsuits first!" Winter curled her lips, grabbed the little rabbit's hand and walked into a swimsuit store, giving Qin Duanyu a dangerous glare as a warning not to follow.

However, it was really inappropriate for a grown man like him to interfere in a girl's swimsuit selection. Qin Duanyu stood awkwardly outside the store, thinking about what else to do to pass the time.

"Doctor, shall we go get some cold drinks? That Haagen-Dazs ice cream cone looks delicious." At this moment, Blue Poison's soft voice interrupted his thoughts.

"Hey, Lan Du, why aren't you buying clothes?" Qin Duanyu noticed that Lan Du hadn't gone in with her and asked curiously.

The girl was still dressed the same as when she first arrived on the island. Although it didn't look out of place, there was no sense of being on vacation; it was more like she was there to carry out a mission.

"I'll protect your safety today. Besides... I'm not fit to go in the water, so there's no need for me to buy a swimsuit." Blue Poison shook her head with a wry smile, looking at Winter and the others with some envy.

The girls were whispering and pointing at a V-shaped swimsuit, and soon they were blushing. Lappland, on the other hand, pointed at the swimsuit and gave him a strange look.

"Pah, just keep acting up!" Seeing that Lin Dong and the others seemed to have noticed his secret observation, Qin Duanyu, who had the desire but not the courage, quickly looked away.

"We finally got to go out and have some fun, how can we not enjoy ourselves?" Qin Duanyu patted Lan Du's head and said with a smile, "Although these expenses aren't covered by reimbursement, I can still afford them. Even just soaking up some sun is better than just watching!"

"Well... alright." Blue Poison hesitated for a moment, but ultimately didn't say what was on her mind.

I practiced in front of the mirror all night, but when I saw the real person, I suddenly lost the ability to speak.

Oh well, there will be plenty of opportunities when we get to the beach. Besides, I'm the Doctor's bodyguard, so I'm sure I can confess successfully!

Chapter 5, Section 111: This beach is so white, this song is so powerful!

Siesta No. 3 Sunbathing Beach.

"Doctor, does it look good?" Amiya, who was the first to come out of the dressing room, asked shyly.

Bad review, I can't see anything!

Amiya originally planned to wear a tank top and denim shorts, but the swimsuit she chose turned out to be a conservative school swimsuit, which actually revealed more fabric after she put it on.

"So cute!" Despite her thoughts, Qin Duanyu still praised her sincerely.

In contrast, the four Ursus girls were much better off. Although they were still wearing one-piece swimsuits, the addition of a thin veil gave them a unique charm.

However, the one who understands people best is undoubtedly Lappland. Wearing a light blue bikini swimsuit, she perfectly showed off her amazing figure that is usually hidden under her uniform. The cross that was given to her yesterday was mostly hidden under the bright white fabric.

"Let's go play water volleyball. We didn't have enough fun on the boat last time, so we have to have a blast today!" Before Qin Duanyu could continue to feast her eyes, Lin Dong suddenly said.

“But… Doctor can’t swim…” Amiya looked at Qin Duanyu with some difficulty.

“He’s such a grown man, can’t he find a way to pass the time?” Winter rolled her eyes and said irritably, “Don’t act like a little adult all the time. It’s okay to go crazy once in a while.”

"It's alright. How could we possibly encounter any danger in such a peaceful city? You can just relax and play with Lin Dong and the others this month. You don't need to wait for me every day to join us." Qin Duanyu smiled and waved her hand, indicating that Amiya should go and play with Lin Dong and the others.

Although he had been exploited by the little rabbit ever since he woke up, to be honest, he didn't feel any ill will towards it.

Putting yourself in her shoes, if Qin Duanyu were only Amiya's age and suffering from Oripathy, a near-terminal illness, she definitely wouldn't have been able to do this. But just like a taut bowstring eventually breaks, she needs to relax occasionally.

For example, take advantage of this month to have a blast with your peers.

“Six people exactly, three on each side!” Winter grabbed Lappland and said with a hint of provocation, “We haven’t had a chance to fight you yet, how about we settle things this time?”

“Interesting, I accept your challenge!” Lappland nodded with a smile, and a surge of emotion made Qin Duanyu’s heart pound.

Blue Poison, that's all the help the team leader can give you. You'd better seize the opportunity and remember to give him a generous reward after it's done. Seeing that everyone had been pulled away, Winter winked at Blue Poison, who was the last to leave the locker room.

Received! The most important thing in our line of work is to seize opportunities and deliver a fatal blow. If I can't even grasp such a precious opportunity, then I've been a sniper operator for nothing.

"Doctor, where are they going?" Blue Poison tilted her head and asked in confusion.

"Oh, Lin Dong is going to play water volleyball. With their stamina, they won't stop until they've played for several hours," Qin Duanyu said with a shrug, somewhat helplessly.

Even if he could swim, his weak physique would prevent him from joining the game with these combat-type operators. It would be a real killing volleyball game, and it wouldn't be surprising if he broke a few bones.

"That's great...but it's such a shame." Blue Poison said in a low voice, while lowering her head to hide her expression. She only raised her head after she calmed down. "What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"

"No, I just think you look especially beautiful today. Of course, you're always pretty." Qin Duanyu replied with a smile, snapping out of her reverie.

No wonder Blue Poison was the last to come out. Because she couldn't go into the water, she wore some light makeup. Her already unique blue eyes became lively and charming under the carefully drawn eye makeup, as if starlight was flowing in her eyes.

The coral lipstick paired with a light foundation doesn't overpower the lips or appear vulgar; instead, it makes the lips look like two flower petals, making one imagine what it would feel like to kiss them.

"There's a concert over there, let's go check it out!" Lan Du blushed slightly and took Qin Duanyu's hand as they walked towards the stage not far away.

She had just checked the program list on the big screen, and in a few more songs it would be the classic "Wishing for One Heart," making it the perfect time to confess her feelings. Once the doctor accepted, it would be a romantic moment for the two of them... *slurp*

At this moment, the famous girl group Star Guardians was still on stage. Originally, it was only a short while before Blue Poison was about to perform their song, but due to the overwhelming demand from fans, they had to perform a few more songs at the last minute.

Qin Duanyu was happy to enjoy the view a little longer, but Lan Du became somewhat impatient.

Ugh, aren't these annoying guys tired of jumping around like that? And Doctor, don't just stare at those women, occasionally... look at me too!

"Doctor..." After finally waiting for the girl group to leave the stage and the long-awaited music intro to begin, Blue Poison, having mustered enough courage over a long period of time, stammered out her words.

"Doctor, what a coincidence! I didn't expect to run into you here." Bai Jin greeted Qin Duanyu with feigned delight, then naturally sat down next to him. "I'm a little late. I wonder how good your performance was."

"Liar, you must have been following me the whole way!" Blue Poison pouted. Ever since leaving the hotel, she had seen a certain white guy hiding in the shadows and secretly observing her more than once.

Moreover, Bai Jin lives near the Civic Square, and the closest place should be Sunbathing Beach No. 1. Why would she go to such lengths to come all the way here? No one would believe such a claim.

In an attempt to shake off his pursuers, Blue Poison deliberately took many detours, constantly trying to disappear into crowds, but he was still eventually caught.

You...you actually used Pegasus Vision!

Seeing the lingering brilliance in Platinum's eyes, Blue Poison gritted her teeth.

"Hmm, this beach is so white, oh no, this song is so powerful!" Qin Duanyu mumbled on the other side, clearly still immersed in the afterglow of the previous song.

"Doctor, the performance is almost over, I want to go sunbathe for a while." Blue Poison knew that if she stayed any longer, the atmosphere for a confession would be ruined, so she tugged at Qin Duanyu's sleeve. "Don't disturb Miss Platinum's concert, she went out of her way to come all this way."

"Perfect timing! I feel the sunscreen is a bit thin, so I want to apply another layer. Can you help me, Doctor?" Platinum tossed her hair, revealing a patch of snow-white skin.

"Let me do it. It wouldn't be good if I didn't apply it evenly and got a tan." Blue Poison's face was half hidden in the darkness, giving it an indescribable eeriness. "Don't worry, I don't have any toxins on my hands."

Although she desperately wanted to experience the feel of platinum skin, Lan Du had already gone this far, so she couldn't show too much eagerness, could she? Qin Duanyu nodded and handed her the sunscreen.

After applying the ointment, Blue Poison immediately lay down on the blanket and said, "Doctor, I can't reach these places on my back. I'll have to trouble you to help."

"Wait a minute, this is something girls should do, aren't you afraid of being taken advantage of?" Platinum said with dissatisfaction, as if she wasn't the one who suggested that the Doctor apply sunscreen.
