Zezhi pointed to the stairwell, where Nekowuru was dragging the unconscious Nekosanzu over, and she still showed no signs of waking up.

Especially the look of terror on the other person's face, as if they had seen a ghost.

However, in reality, upstairs...

"Don't think you can just get away with this."

"We're talking serious business, don't go too far, wait...wait a minute, they're still downstairs!"

"Gentle, be gentle!"

Faced with Lin Qiu's malicious interruption, Yun Mo could only put up a token resistance, throwing a few things out as a pretense, pretending that he was still doing serious business.

On the other hand, Chen Xiao, while applying new shower gel, gradually sensed that something was amiss.

"Why does this shower gel smell so good? Is it newly released?"

Chen Xiao took a closer sniff. It didn't smell like the fruit or lavender scents of ordinary shower gels. It was faint, but it smelled exciting!

I'll ask Lin Qiu for the link to this brand of shower gel later, and buy a few bottles to try myself. It feels like I could use it as perfume.

While taking a shower, Chen Xiao didn't notice the slight increase in body temperature. Instead, the fragrance became increasingly intoxicating, and his heart began to race uncontrollably...

370. Sometimes, don't stack resistance too high.

"Phew—it feels hotter the more I wash."

When Chen Xiao came out, everyone's gaze towards her was momentarily stunned.

Does this guy have a strange scent?

"what happened?"

Noticing the strange looks from everyone, Chen Xiao scratched his face in confusion. Something seemed off about the situation.

Is there anything strange about me?

"Old Chen, what shower gel do you use? It smells so good, it's making me a little dizzy."

Saki asked curiously, "I didn't smell like this when I washed myself. Lin Qiu is definitely giving me preferential treatment!"

"I don't know either. Lin Qiu found it. I was thinking of asking him for the link."

Chen Xiao muttered to himself, and the moment he sat down on the sofa, everyone felt an indescribable fragrance lingering around them.

Ying Ziyan sniffed carefully, as if realizing something, and her eyes suddenly sharpened.

I feel like I've smelled this scent before in some store!

It feels a bit... astringent!

However, Ying Ziyan couldn't recall it for a moment, her brows furrowed as she carefully searched for relevant memories.

Before she could think further, Lin Qiu came downstairs as if nothing had happened, his clothes disheveled, as if he had suffered extremely cruel torture.

But strangely enough, this guy didn't have a single scratch on him...

"You're still alive?!"

Ze Zhi stared at Lin Qiu as if she had seen a ghost. In her imagination, this guy should have had his skull smashed by Yun Mo, so how come he was completely unharmed?!

Hearing the guy's mutterings, Lin Qiu's lips twitched involuntarily.

How dare you talk like that? This guy won't behave unless he's taught a lesson, will he?

He glared at the guy with annoyance, but before Lin Qiu could say anything more, the guy seemed to smell something and suddenly froze.

"It smells so good! Did anyone wear perfume?"

"The scent on Old Chen's body is the fragrance of the shower gel you gave him."

"Huh? My house always smells like normal fruit, this is the first time I've ever smelled this."

Lin Qiu scratched his face in a daze, but he quickly realized what was happening, and his pupils suddenly contracted.

"Old Chen! Did you feel anything was wrong after you took a shower?"

Lin Qiu hurriedly approached Chen Xiao and asked anxiously.

That's the shower gel my parents secretly switched; who knows what terrible side effects it might have!

Chen Xiao was also taken aback by the question, his face full of confusion.

"There's nothing wrong with it. In fact, your shower gel is quite good. My skin feels much smoother after using it."

"That's it?"

"Well, that's it."

"That shouldn't be the case. Under normal circumstances, Old Chen, you'd probably be losing your mind by now."

"..."

Before I start punching you, you'd better explain to me what the hell you mean by that.

Chen Xiao stared at this guy expressionlessly. He already doubted his own charm when this guy didn't pounce on him with passionate fervor during the shower, and now this guy actually wanted him to get into trouble.

If we don't teach this guy a lesson, he's definitely going to rebel!

Have you forgotten who's in charge here?!

Lin Qiu tried pinching Chen Xiao's face, and apart from the fever from just coming out of the bath, there was nothing particularly unusual about it.

On the contrary, Chen Xiao was a little annoyed by being pinched, and glared fiercely at this guy.

Can't you do something productive? All you do is touch my face. Can't you be a little more responsible?

"Alright, alright, where did you just go... Hmm? Why is your neck all red?"

"He was beaten up by Yunmo."

Lin Qiu calmly covered his neck and explained that if Old Chen knew how he and Yun Mo had argued, his head would be ripped off.

As he was explaining, he clearly felt that the fragrance emanating from Chen Xiao had become even stronger, lingering around his nose and inexplicably making him feel dizzy.

However, as the magical power within Lin Qiu's body flowed on its own, the dazed feeling quickly dissipated.

However, his explanation did not convince Chen Xiao, who instead stared at the tightly covered part with some suspicion.

"It doesn't feel like a scar to me, it's more like..."

"Old Chen, you're overthinking it. It's just a minor injury that will heal quickly. Let's think about how you plan to allocate the resting areas tonight."

Lin Qiu decisively changed the subject, turning her gaze to the others.

The group exchanged glances, hesitated for a moment, and then stared intently at the innocent-looking Sawaori—

Where are you sleeping tonight?

Why ask me first?

Sawa grumbled somewhat unhappily, "Wouldn't it be better to sleep on the floor together and chat?"

Why do I see such strong resistance in your eyes?

"Once you've made up your mind, we can start eliminating options."

"Are you sure it's okay to say that to my face?"

"If all else fails, you can share a room with Lin Qiu. Of all the people here, you're the only one I feel most at ease with at this time of night."

"Yunmo, what you're saying is a bit too much!"

Ze Zhi was completely exasperated. These guys were clearly looking down on her! Did they really think she was a pushover?!

Lin Qiu's expression changed upon hearing this. It was a bit strange that this guy was trying to shift the blame onto him. He wanted to get some rest that night and maybe visit Ziyan or Yunmo. If this guy found out, he wouldn't be able to stay at this house anymore.

After hesitating for a moment, Zezhi decisively picked up Chie, who was licking a popsicle.

"I'll sleep with Chie!"

"Eh?"

Seeing the sympathetic looks from everyone, Chie's face stiffened involuntarily.

Why do I have such a bad feeling?

"Well, I wanted to sleep with Xiao Xuan and Xiao Dan."

Xiao Qianhui eagerly spoke up, her eyes frantically gesturing to Qin Xuan and Qin Dan beside her.

Help! If this keeps up, we won't be able to have any fun tonight!

"It's okay, the four of us can go together."

Qin Xuan's expression changed immediately upon hearing this, and he decisively spoke up—

"I...I'm planning to play games all night!"

Just kidding, she'd heard her older sister say all the time that this guy was absolutely insane when he sleepwalked, and if they slept together, one of them would definitely go crazy!

"It's okay, I can sleep with Sawari-nee-nee!"

Qin Dan's speech, however, was somewhat unexpected and immediately drew everyone's attention.

Is this little guy not afraid of dying?!

Faced with the questioning looks from the crowd, Qin Dan chuckled but offered no explanation.

I know very well that Sister Zezhi is a famous information broker in the game. Maybe I can learn some amazing information when we chat at night!

This is a rare opportunity, I can't miss it. If I really can't sleep, I'll just run to Brother Lin Qiu's room for refuge!

371. The enemy should indeed have been eliminated at the very beginning!

"Ah - I have this strange feeling that I haven't been back for a long time."

Looking out at the bustling streets, Ying Ziyan spoke with some emotion.

Although I spent some time on a business trip to Taixu Mountain and gained some valuable experience, I still feel more at ease when I'm back home.

"After all, I've been away on business for a while, and I miss it."

"Could you please take your hand off my skewers before you say that?"

Sakuma glared at the muttering Sawaori and slapped her hand away in annoyance.

I worked so hard to grill these skewers, how dare this thieving cat steal them?

Upon hearing this, Ze Zhi pouted and had no choice but to give up sneaking a bite. Instead, she looked longingly at the portions that Lin Qiu was grilling.

My food has been half-cooked the whole time, and if I wait any longer, tears will start streaming down my face.

Even though my own baking wasn't very good, it was still much better than Yunmo's burnt-black stuff that was practically indistinguishable from charcoal.

Thinking of this, Zezhi felt a surge of superiority.

"Yunmo, it's been so long, and your cooking skills haven't improved at all!!"

Looking at the charred mess, even Ye Ziyu couldn't help but show a hint of disgust.

You were told you'd finally made some progress, but the result is that you can't see any improvement at all!

On the other hand, Chen Xiao's cooking skills were unexpectedly good, completely outclassing Yun Mo!

Why is there such a big difference?!

Ye Ziyu was momentarily confused, and could only glance at Yun Mo with pity. There was nothing she could do to help with this fatal injury.

Noticing Ye Ziyu's helpless gaze, Chen Xiao couldn't help but smirk.

Sure enough, compared to Yunmo, Master is much more reasonable.

"I really didn't expect that you could use the rooftop of your house for parties and barbecues, Brother Lin Qiu. Now we have so many more places to have fun."

Qin Dan smacked her lips and muttered to herself, "I could totally throw a party here!"

"Don't even think about it. This kind of place is great for having fun, but it's also quite a hassle to clean up. Don't be lazy after you finish eating."

Qin Xuan glanced at Xiao Dan, who was already dreaming about the future, and decisively poured cold water on her enthusiasm to calm her down.

We can't let this guy just wander around doing nothing!

"Hey—let's get it done. Lin Qiu and the others can't just leave me to do it all by myself."
