All my teammates online are my girlfriends

"Hmm? Ah Xuan, I don't know if it's just my imagination, but doesn't that set of figurines look a little familiar to you?"

"Hmm—it does look familiar, and those patterns that were specially carved for aesthetic purposes are just like your previous figurine."

"..."

089 - Hidden Study Materials on the Computer

“It shouldn’t be an illusion, right?”

"Are you sure you created the patterns and decorations yourself?"

"That's right, the location for this figure was initially a bit lacking; it only became so beautiful after I touched it!"

"Let's ask Chie instead."

Qin Xuan stared at the set of figurines, rubbing his chin as he fell into deep thought.

If I remember correctly, my older sister used to be the online friend she was closest to, and at that time, Xiao Dan and I suspected that she was her online boyfriend.

But now the figurine is with Lin Qiu...

So, Lin Qiu is the older sister's closest online friend?! And without their knowledge, their mother has taken a liking to Lin Qiu and seems determined to groom him!

"Hiss—this ill-fated relationship is hard to end without marriage."

"What are you muttering about?"

"Ah, it's nothing. Is Chie ready yet?"

"It looks like she's still making tea. I'll go help her."

"Go ahead, go ahead, I'll look at other things."

Qin Xuan waved his hand and watched Qin Dan leave the room. Then, he immediately sat down in front of Lin Qiu's computer and turned on the host with great anticipation.

When it comes to the most attractive things in an otaku's room, besides figurines and related merchandise, there's also the "study materials" on his hard drive!

Let me see for myself what Lin Qiu's tastes are like!

As the screen gradually lit up, Qin Xuan's eyes sharpened instantly, and he silently prayed—

Please don't set a password!

"Ding-"

With a pleasant click, the anime-style desktop background appeared before his eyes, and Qin Xuan's spirits lifted instantly. He quickly grabbed the mouse and clicked on "My Computer".

"Hmm—C drive, D drive, E drive...F drive!"

Looking at the F drive, whose capacity and usage far exceeded that of his own disk, Qin Xuan's heart jumped. He swallowed hard and then moved the mouse pointer over it.

"Da da."

With a few light taps, the contents of the disk were immediately and clearly displayed in her view.

Surprisingly, it didn't contain any blush-inducing learning materials, but rather a large amount of information and guides for the game "Karakuri," as well as synthesis formulas for various alchemy skills.

"What? That's all?"

Seeing that there was nothing particularly exciting, Qin Xuan curled his lip in disdain.

A computer without learning materials is soulless!

"Could it be on another disk?"

Qin Xuan muttered to himself, his gaze thoughtfully drifting towards the other disks.

After flipping through the pages casually, she still found nothing, which made her somewhat suspicious.

Lin Qiu doesn't have any study materials, and he doesn't seem to want to date or anything. Could it be that he has some kind of fetish in that area?!

Realizing the seriousness of the problem, Qin Xuan was completely flustered. Just as he was about to turn around and run out to find Qian Hui to find out what was going on, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a line of small print in the corner.

"System files?"

As Qin Xuan read it aloud, he instinctively sensed that something was amiss.

But as she dragged the mouse, the selected image in the software immediately appeared in her eyes.

Good heavens, Lin Qiu actually made the icon exactly the same as the background!

If I hadn't spotted that line of small print, I might have been fooled!

"So there really are some!"

With a flicker of his eyes, he opened the extremely hidden folder. After only a few glances, Qin Xuan's face immediately turned rosy.

So Lin Qiu-ge actually likes this type of guy, and even that kind of play!

Wow!! That's a really daring pose! Can it really reach that depth?

"Hiss—Big sister's going to be very exciting from now on!"

With her face flushed, Qin Xuan closed the folder. After confirming once again that there were no other hidden files, he turned off the computer and lay down on Lin Qiu's bed as if nothing had happened.

Although Lin Qiuge has a lot of collections, most of them are women with the figure of the eldest sister, so her future is bright!

"Ah Xuan, the black tea is ready. Try it, it might be a little hot."

Just as she was lost in thought, Qin Dan and Qian Hui walked in with a plate of black tea and pastries, which immediately brought her back to her senses.

"Ah—it's nothing. How did it go? Did you get the answer?"

"Lin Qiu brought it back from the amusement park, saying it was a gift from a friend."

Chie explained, then, seemingly worried that they might have some reservations, quickly added—

"If you mind, you can take it back."

"It's not that bad, it's just like the dowry for my eldest sister in the future."

Qin Dan muttered to herself that she was extremely unwilling at first, but after learning that it was Brother Lin Qiu, she could accept it.

As long as Lin Qiu is still my brother-in-law, will I ever lack figurines again?

Even if my older sister really falls out with Lin Qiu, she can just wait until she's an adult and take over herself! We can't miss such a good candidate!

"That's good. Come and try the black tea I brewed. I learned it from Brother Lin Qiu."

"Hmm? Brother Lin Qiu can brew black tea?"

Qin Dan immediately became interested; this was a plus, especially since her older sister was quite enthusiastic about studying cooking, so they should have something in common!

"Yeah, in our family, Dad and Brother Lin Qiu are the best cooks. When Mom and Dad aren't home, Brother Lin Qiu usually cooks for me. Now that I've learned how to cook, I usually do it myself."

Chie explained, then hugged Lin Qiu's pillow and sat down on the bed with a chuckle.

I'm quite confident in my cooking skills now, especially when it comes to small desserts, which I'm particularly good at.

"Wow - whoever marries Chie will be so happy!" Qin Dan couldn't help but sigh. But they'll all be family now, so she'll be able to enjoy it too!

I've decided to accept the Lin Qiu family as my own! I absolutely adore this amazing brother and sister duo!

"Hehe - it's alright. Are we going to use Lin Qiu's computer to play games later?"

"Oh, is that okay?"

Upon hearing that it was Lin Qiu's computer, Qin Dan immediately perked up. She might even find some incredible study materials, which could make the situation extremely awkward.

I really need to see this!

"It's okay. I usually use Lin Qiu's computer to play games. He mainly uses it to look up information and play games like 'Kara no Kyoukai'."

"Do you have a password?"

Qin Dan almost impatiently reached out to the main unit, but her eyes narrowed as she felt the lingering warmth of the unit.

Someone's already opened it! Ah Xuan was the only one in the house just now; did she already check it beforehand?!

"To make it easier for me to play, Brother Lin Qiu didn't set a password, so you can just open it directly."

"Oh—just asking, your brother probably doesn't have it on his computer...."

"I'm not quite sure, but there should be 163."

090-The Lin Family's Traditional Method of Correcting Objects

"How do you know so clearly?"

"I watched my mom do it."

"hiss--"

Hearing Qianhui's answer, Qin Xuan and Qin Dan stared wide-eyed, somewhat bewildered.

I was so looking forward to it, and then you tell me it was Aunt Chizuru who made it?!

Something's not right with your situation!

"How could it be Aunt Qianhe who put it in? Didn't Brother Lin Qiu have it himself?"

"Ever since I first sent my mom a picture of Sister Yunmo, she's taken a liking to her. As soon as she got back, she deleted all the potentially risky resources from Brother Linqiu's computer."

"Eh--"

"Mom said we can't let Lin Qiu be tempted by those things anymore. It'll be better if he looks at women with similar figures. That way, he'll only have eyes for Sister Yunmo!"

"However, Mom seems to have complained that there are too few women with Yunmo's figure, so she could only find so many that were close to it."

Chie shrugged helplessly, but as long as one's figure isn't too good, there shouldn't be any problem.

Qin Xuan and Qin Dan's lips twitched upon hearing this. So, their eldest sister's figure was indeed extremely rare?

"But it's really amazing that Aunt Chizuru thought of doing this. Didn't Brother Lin Qiu say anything?"

Qin Dan smacked her lips and muttered to herself.

"Brother Lin Qiu hasn't had a chance to watch it yet; he's been busy playing 'Karakuri' these past few days."

"Does this trick really work?"

"Mom said it was very useful. Back then, Dad liked the hot type, so Mom replaced all his resources with those similar to herself, and she actually corrected Dad's preferences."

So this has become a traditional technique in your family?!

The two little ones, stunned and bewildered, looked at each other, unsure of what to say.

"Are all of these close enough? Why do some of them still feel a bit too big to me?"

When Qin Xuan opened the folder with practiced ease, Xiao Dan and Qian Hui, who were standing next to her, were both taken aback.

How did you know you were here?

"Ahem—I just took a look out of curiosity, sorry."

Qin Xuan scratched his blushing face a little embarrassedly, but he could assure himself that he had only looked at it out of curiosity and had no other improper thoughts!

"It's alright, Brother Lin Qiu doesn't care about this, as long as his 'Void Realm' data isn't lost."

"Oh, Ah Xuan, hurry up and open it! I can't wait to know what kind of resources Aunt Qianhe picked out for Brother Lin Qiu!"

"Is it inappropriate for us to look at this kind of thing in his room?"

"Then move aside, we'll see it ourselves."

"Let me see!"

As Qin Xuan moved the mouse, about to click, the sound of the downstairs door opening came through the window.

Like an alarm signaling an enemy invasion, the three little ones jumped in fright, hurriedly shutting down the computer and leaping onto the bed with their game consoles.

As footsteps approached from the stairs, their hearts jumped into their throats with tension.

"Hurry, hurry, they shouldn't have arrived yet, there's still a chance to hide."

"Make sure you hide it well, otherwise it won't be easy for me to explain!"

The moment the door was pushed open, Lin Qiu and Qin Yunmo rushed in.

Before they could even find the location of the figurines, they saw the three little ones staring blankly at them from the bed, and the two of them froze on the spot.

An unspeakable silence enveloped the entire room. Feeling the piercing gaze from his younger sister, Qin Yunmo turned his head away somewhat awkwardly.

In the end, it was Chie who broke the silence first, asking with some confusion—
