Collapse Iron: After watching the simulation, they all turned to the dark side.

Her violet eyes revealed not a trace of emotion.

[Star: @Astella, this looks like a lap pillow!]

[Aista: What lap pillow? Only a person's knees can be called a lap pillow. This is a doll, don't you understand?! ('???`)]

[Fireworks: @Daheita, what do you think?]

[Big Black Tower: Mind your own business. I'm letting my little lackey get a good night's sleep, is there a problem with that?]

A long time passed before the train finally arrived at the station, and Lu Qing opened her eyes.

What a strange sensation! Lu Qing looked up and saw the little black tower doll whose eyes had lost their luster, and he seemed to be sleeping on her lap.

However, Lu Qing didn't care much. It wasn't a real black tower. But you know what, the feel of it was actually quite nice.

Lu Qing stretched and his body started popping like popping beans.

Phew, finally home.

The big black tower with its pointed head felt like it was being abused; it had been eating peony-infused culinary monstrosities for a whole day.

Unable to bear it any longer, she scolded her a couple of times, and Peony stood pitifully to the side.

"I clearly used the recipes left by the stationmaster to cook this meal, it shouldn't taste this bad..."

[That Summer: Are you looking for magic tricks?]

Fortunately, his little follower had finally returned, and he no longer had to eat the food that even Hakimi wouldn't eat.

But at this moment, a blush inexplicably appeared on Black Tower's face.

Feeling the same way as the little black tower, she thoroughly felt the temperature of the back of Lu Qing's head.

She was pondering a very serious question:

If her guess is correct, Lu Qing should like her.

What if he confesses his feelings to me the moment we meet again?

If I reject him, will he be very upset and then resign?

This is something I cannot accept.

She had gotten used to Lu Qing's presence.

But if I agree, wouldn't that mean I'm just throwing myself into it?

I don't want to be thoroughly exposed by him.

[Astara (very loudly): Stop imagining things! He won't like you!!!]

[Ruan Mei: Actually, I quite like this couple. I'm a little curious about what it's like for Black Tower to be in a relationship.]

[Fireworks: @Daheita, are you no longer refuting anything?]

[Star: I think most people would like to see this kind of plot.]

[Star: Black Tower & Defeat.]

[The Great Black Tower: ?]

[Silver Wolf: All I can say is that a young girl's flushed cheeks speak louder than any sweet words.]

[Silver Wolf: No, I'm already an old lady.]

[Fireworks: The Great Black Tower: Arminus!!!]

Back at the space station, Lu Qing went to his room first and casually tossed the little black tower he was carrying on his shoulder onto the bed.

He was thinking about something: should he give Little Black Tower a bath? These safety shorts were awful; he had just smelled a fishy odor on them.

[Little Black Tower: Slander!!! He's slandering me!!!]

[Star: Wait, I have a question. Doesn't the Great Black Tower allow for sensory communication? Doesn't that mean...?]

[The Great Black Tower: Stop with your bizarre ideas.]

[Star: Just in case, I mean just in case, Little Black Tower gets some sensitive spots touched, will you feel anything? @BigBlackTower.]

[Seele: What's this? A remote control?]

[Bronya: Good heavens, Seele, what have you been learning since you connected to the internet?! !!!]

[Fireworks: Our elaborate memes are no match for a genius's flash of inspiration. Please join our tavern! @Seele.]

Seele: Let's just forget about it (?'?`?)*??*

Pushing open the office door of the Big Black Tower, Lu Qing felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange.

"What happened?"

“I’m hungry,” the big black tower said without hesitation, then pointed to the kitchen on the side.

Lu Qing silently glanced at the almost untouched food on the table.

Oh, you've become picky about food. I'll starve you for a few days and you'll behave.

Of course, Lu Qing only dared to think about it in his heart. There was nothing he could do, as she had something on him called his salary.

Despite this, Lu Qing still intended to put up a fight.

"I'm too tired to cook tonight."

Black Tower casually reached out and pulled out a gold coin from his hand.

"What if I add money?"

"You think you can buy my character with just a small gold coin?"

"Can't you?"

"You are a good judge of people."

He casually took the gold coin from the big black tower's palm, but he didn't know if it was just his imagination, but the big black tower's slender fingers seemed to be scratching his palm like a kitten's paw.

Lu Qing pondered whether Hei Ta did it intentionally or accidentally, or perhaps her submissive nature had suddenly awakened.

However, Lu Qing couldn't get an answer in a short time.

"On another note, what would Ms. Black Tower like to eat tonight?"

"Just cook a dish you like."

An unexpected answer left Lu Qing stunned for a moment.

"What kind of food do you like to eat?"

"Is there a problem?"

"No problem, but... never mind, it's nothing..."

Soon, Lu Qing's signature act was freshly made.

A bowl of fried rice, that's right, just a simple bowl of fried rice.

Ham, eggs, toon leaves, diced meat, and leftover rice.

The black pagoda and peony fragrance are almost confusing.

Lu Qing had considered adding braised pork intestines and deliberately preserving some of the original flavor, but when he thought about how he would also be eating it, he gave up on the idea.

[Fireworks: Lu Qing, you really only think about yourself.]

After a satisfying meal, Peony dutifully went to wash the dishes, and Lu Qing, yawning, prepared to leave.

"Wait a minute."

"What's wrong, Ms. Black Tower?" Lu Qing turned around and smiled slightly.

"Thank you for today."

"It's nothing, it's just my job. I promised you I would be a qualified station manager."

Daheita was slightly dazed; if Lu Qing hadn't mentioned it, he would have almost forgotten about it.

Does he still remember it?

"By the way, Ms. Black Tower, am I considered qualified now?"

"Let's assume that for now; it depends on your future performance."

"Alright then... I'll be going now."

For some reason, when Black Tower gave this negative answer, he felt a slight pang of regret.

But it's no big deal. If this is confirmed, he'll be strutting around like crazy.

[Fireworks: Okay, let's open the betting. I'll bet on a bad ending.]

[Fireworks: In the very end, Lu Qing weakly looked at the Black Tower and uttered his last words, "So, am I a qualified stationmaster?" Then the simulation ended.]

[March 7th: Are you kidding me? This is Huanyu Live, how could it end like this? If you ask me, the ending should definitely be Black Tower giving birth to Little Black Tower, and then they're together in a happy ending.]

[Aista: You're all overthinking it. It's probably because Lu Qing and Black Tower had a falling out, and he finally remembered how good I was to him, planning to live off me for the rest of his life—a perfect ending.]

[Alan: Although I hate to say it, now is fantasy time. @Estella.]

[Estella: @Alan, can't you speak properly?!]

【Astella: Flips the table (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻】

Chapter 13 The Vinegar Jar Exploded

"Oh, what an idiot, you still need Lord Black Tower to help you solve the problem."

Hei Ta watched Lu Qing leave, and without hesitation, dialed Ruan Mei's number.

"Beep beep..."

Ruan Mei: Hei Ta, what's up?

"Big Black Tower: Can't I contact you if there's nothing wrong?"

Ruan Mei: Sure, so what's up?

"Big Black Tower: I need your help."

"Big Black Tower: You'd better come sooner rather than later."

[Star: This shows she knows Black Tower quite well; she only thinks of you when she needs help.]

[March 7th: Similar to simulating the universe, to measure?]

[Star: His tone wasn't that friendly.]

"You mean one of your employees has been corrupted by the void, and you want me to heal him?"

That makes sense.

Is this person important to you?

"It's somewhat useful."

[Hanabi: This is a lie. Some people are just all talk and no action.]

[Star: At this point, some people might ask, "Where is it soft?"]

[Ruan Mei: I know Black Tower very well. She usually won't ask me for help unless... it's something really important.]

[Big Black Tower: @Ruan Mei, can you give me some face? No way!!!]

Ciallo～(∠?ω＜)⌒☆······（Divider Line）

At this moment, Ruan Mei slowly took off her white silk gloves, looked at the unfinished experiment, and calmly breathed a sigh of relief.

"It must be something very important, let's go check on it as soon as possible."

The Black Tower space station welcomed a meeting of geniuses.

The little black tower, wearing a purple beret, stood on the platform waiting for Ruan Mei.

"You actually came out to pick me up; this seems to be the first time."

Xiao Heita then took Ruan Mei's hand and left.

"It's just a doll, I don't really care about it."
