Seeing that Selena seemed very nervous and uneasy, Li Chaoge reached out and hugged her soft, delicate body tightly.

One of the biggest differences between Constructs and humans is that Constructs have a sea of ​​consciousness. The sea of ​​consciousness of a Construct stores the Construct's memories, and the Commander needs to stabilize the sea of ​​consciousness to prevent it from being corrupted by the Punishing Virus.

But there shouldn't be a Punishing virus in this world, so why is my consciousness suddenly fluctuating?

"No mind link is needed, Commander just needs to hold me quietly."

Selena pressed her cheek against Li Chaoge's chest, took a deep breath through her delicate nose, and tightly wrapped her slender, fair hands around his waist. Her cherry lips parted slightly as she murmured, "As long as you hold me and let me hear your breathing and heartbeat, the torrential rain that keeps swirling in my ears will suddenly stop."

"If my hug can make you feel at ease, then my hug is always open to you."

Li Chaoge looked down at Selena's face and gently tapped her forehead.

Unlike Selena's elegant appearance, when he hugged her, he found that her body was very frail and thin, which made him feel sorry for her.

The two embraced tightly, silently enjoying the tranquility of the moment.

However, they forgot that this was the living room, a place that could be seen from both the entrance and exit of the Dust-Song Pot, and a place that could be seen as soon as the villa's front door was opened.

"Crack!"

As a group of people who had gone out to buy groceries or go for a run returned, Li Chaoge, who was holding Selena in his arms, felt a barrage of burning gazes. He suddenly looked up and saw Lucia in the crowd with a complicated expression.

"commander......"

Chapter 124. The Scene of White Album (4,000 words)

Li Chaoge left the Chenge Pot and went to the living room. There was no one in the living room, but the tempting aroma of food came from the kitchen.

A silver-haired maid was busy in the kitchen, with a girl with long, flowing black hair standing behind her.

Good morning, Commander.

While observing Belfast making breakfast, Selena suddenly turned around to look at Li Chaoge, a gentle smile appearing on her pretty face.

"Good morning, Master. Breakfast is almost ready. Please wait a moment."

Belfast also turned around and bowed slightly to Li Chaoge.

"Belfa, Selena, good morning to you too. Don't rush about breakfast, I need to wash up first."

Li Chaoge smiled and shook his head.

"By the way, where are the others? Did they go out?"

He suddenly realized that the computers had all been moved into Chengehu, and there was no one else in the living room. Surely everyone was sleeping in, right? That was unlikely; none of them were the type to like sleeping in.

"Raiden Mei, Kiana, and Silly Lucia went to the market to buy things because everyone had finished eating last night."

Belfast replied that, after all, it's impossible for so many people to just drink without eating, and even if some people only drink beverages, it's impossible for them not to eat anything. Last night, everyone basically ate everything they could.

"Lei Movie asked Ayaka Kamisato and Hotaru to take her to see the surrounding scenery."

"Miyu and Megumi McQueen said they ate too much last night and are going to go outside for a run."

"So that's how it is."

Upon hearing this, Li Chaoge immediately thought of a ridiculous movie like Grandma Liu visiting the Grand View Garden, and Megumi McQueen complaining that he couldn't resist the temptation of food last night and had to suffer through a painful diet.

"What about Platinum and Bronya?"

He didn't see either of them inside the Dust Song Pot.

"They are all sleeping in their rooms upstairs now."

After inquiring about everyone's whereabouts, Li Chaoge nodded thoughtfully.

What they did was very much in line with their personalities, and he had nothing to say about it.

However, as fellow horse girls, Miyu and Megumi McQueen are worried about gaining weight from eating too much, so they go to exercise. Platinum, on the other hand, is a lazy bum who eats and sleeps all day long and stays at home without moving around much. I wonder if she will gain weight from this.

Perhaps he should urge Platinum and Mi Yumu to be as self-disciplined as McQueen and the others, at least to go for a run together every morning.

"I'll go wash up first, and then I'll try Belfast and Selena's breakfast later."

Li Chaoge nodded and prepared to go to the restroom next door to wash up.

Normally, he would wash up in the bathroom attached to his room after waking up, but today he woke up in the Dust Song Pot and hadn't washed up yet.

"Commander, actually I was just watching Miss Belfast busy. I... rarely cook."

Seeing that Li Chaoge had misunderstood, Selena's fair face flushed slightly, and she twirled her dark hair with her slender white fingers, whispering shyly.

She studied art, opera, and dance; she speaks many languages; she is proficient in all classical instruments and can replace an entire symphony orchestra by herself. She even learned how to fight and survive on a chaotic Earth. However, she is not very skilled in cooking.

Although she enjoys tasting delicious food, just like how she loves flowers but can't keep any of them alive, her cooking skills are indeed not very good, at least far inferior to Lucia's.

"It's commendable that you made a special trip to the kitchen to learn. I look forward to tasting your cooking skills next time, Selena."

Li Chaoge gently touched Selena's hair, shook his head and smiled before going to the adjacent restroom to get a cup and towel to wash up.

Selena and Lucia are both from the world of Punishing: Gray Raven, and both are in the Sky Garden. As the captain of the Gray Raven squad, Lucia calls him Commander, while Selena calls him Commander in addition to his name. He doesn't know why Selena likes to call him that, as it seems that no one else calls him that.

However, Selena calling him that gave him a special feeling.

"command......"

As Selena watched Li Chaoge's retreating figure, she secretly decided that she would learn cooking from Lucia when she returned.

"Selena, go to the living room and chat with the master. I can take care of things here."

Taking in the behavior of both of them, Belfast looked at the quiet and refined young lady beside her, who was as elegant and dignified as a textbook example of a traditional young lady.

Although Selena hadn't been able to help much and had only been watching, this was quite normal for her as the head of the royal maids.

There were quite a few troublesome people in the royal maid team, but compared to those troublesome ones, Selena, who stayed quietly by her side watching her work, was already worthy of praise.

However, Selena, who exudes aristocratic air, is probably no match for the royal maids. If anyone should be compared, it would be a royal lady like Hood.

Belfast believes that Selena Gomez and Hood share many similarities in their elegance.

"Okay, I happen to have something I want to say to the commander."

Selena nodded slightly and waited for Li Chaoge to finish washing up and sit on the sofa.

She then gently lifted her skirt, pressed her slender, rounded, fair legs together, and sat down next to Li Chaoge's shoulder.

"How are you feeling, Selena? Are you finding it a bit strange to be here all of a sudden?"

Seeing the serene and elegant smile on Selena's face beside him, Li Chaoge took the initiative to ask.

Although this sounds like a leader comforting subordinates, it's impossible to understand their perspectives on the current situation without asking. With so many people, it's difficult for him to notice everyone's every move in everyday interactions, and it wouldn't be good if he accidentally overlooked their dissatisfaction.

"I don't feel uncomfortable at all. In fact, the air here seems much more refreshing than in the Sky Garden. The only thing that surprised me is that there are a few more girls around you."

Selena shook her head slightly, a faint smile still on her lips, but what she said made Li Chaoge a little embarrassed.

"I can only apologize for this; I am indeed rather fickle."

Li Chaoge honestly admitted that, to them, his philandering was a fact, something they had known for a long time.

If they disliked him because of his womanizing, they wouldn't be here at all. Lying in a situation like this would be a turn-off, so it's better to just admit it honestly.

"That's not what I meant, Commander."

However, Selena, who was sitting shoulder to shoulder with Li Chaoge, just smiled. She gently lifted her slender, white fingertips, tucked her slightly messy hair behind her ear, revealing her crystal-clear ear. Her clear, iris-purple eyes stared quietly at Li Chaoge.

"Commander, you are the top student at Faos Academy and the commander of the Gray Raven Squad. So many outstanding girls like you, doesn't that just prove I have good taste?"

Or perhaps I was just very lucky?

In the world of Punishing: Gray Raven, Selena and Commander Li Chaoge met because Selena had a sudden idea while reading in the library one day: she wanted to find a pen pal who didn't need to know who the other person was, and who didn't need to know who she was.

At that time, Li Chaoge was still at Faos Academy and had not yet become the commander of the Gray Raven Squad. The reason he was able to become pen pals with the young lady Selena, whom he did not know, was because of an envelope that Selena sent randomly.

Neither of them probably imagined they would end up like this.

"Perhaps it was a coincidence, or perhaps it was inevitable."

Li Chaoge remained noncommittal. In the Hanging Gardens, were there many people who used letters? Even a pampered young lady like Selena, who had once lived in a greenhouse, only learned about pen pals by chance while browsing books in the library. Would the other lower-class people, who had to fight for survival and for the slogan of reclaiming the earth, ever use letters?

In this era, letters are rarely used, let alone in the sparsely populated Hanging Gardens.

If it weren't for someone's deliberate arrangement, he and Selena might not have had such a romantic encounter.

However, none of that seems to matter much. What matters is that he and Selena are both very happy to have such a compatible pen pal.

"Yes, perhaps it was fate that led me to send the letter on that day, giving us the opportunity to meet."

Recalling her youthful and beautiful memories, Selena smiled gently and said softly.

In fact, when she wrote down her thoughts and expressed her longing for the word "pen pal" on a blank sheet of paper and sent it out, she did not expect to receive a reply.

When she received the commander's first reply, she was so nervous that she hesitated for a long time before she dared to carefully pick up the letter and read the commander's reply.

If her first letter went unanswered or was even ridiculed, she would never write again, but that's just a possibility.

The reality is that the first time she wrote a letter to a stranger, she received a gentle reply from the Commander. The Commander was her first and only pen pal, and the two continued to exchange letters without ever knowing each other's identities.

She never imagined that the commander would later become her pillar of support, and that she would struggle to survive countless crises by relying on her longing for him.

To this day, she still doesn't know if she can leave the command.

She didn't want to think about it, nor dared to think about it. All she wanted was to hold the conductor tightly again and feel his heartbeat once more.

"Yes, that is indeed a very romantic thing."

Selena's irresistible smile made Li Chaoge laugh as well.

It would be much more romantic to write a letter to his lovely Selena than to help Li Hua or Xiao Ming write a letter to their friends abroad.

"However, compared to the sense of ritual and mystery of traditional correspondence, I think it is also a very romantic thing to travel across countless worlds and time to another world to find the commander."

Selena's fair and slender hand landed on the back of Li Chaoge's hand, which was resting on his knee. She slowly lifted his hand, her beautiful iris-purple eyes fixed on him. "Commander, can you put your hand on my cheek?"

She had so much to say to the commander, but when the words reached her lips, she felt they were no longer important.

Words could no longer express her emotions; only physical contact could convey her feelings to the commander.

She believed that the commander would be on the same wavelength as her, as always, regardless of whether the commander knew her now.

"of course can."

Li Chaoge agreed without hesitation; it was not something he needed to hesitate about.

He released his fingers from Selena's soft little hand and gently stroked her fair and smooth cheek, then stroked her closed eyes.

As Li Chaoge gazed at Selena's delicate and beautiful face, he gently stroked her trembling eyelashes with his fingertips, secretly marveling at her beauty.

Like Lucia, Selena's body is now also a construct, but perhaps due to technical issues, he felt that Selena's body temperature was only slightly lower and a little cold, and her touch was no different from that of an ordinary person.

"Um, may I ask for one more thing? Um, could you give me a hug?"

Selena, who had been letting Li Chaoge gently stroke her cheek with her eyes closed, suddenly opened her eyes and stared intently at Li Chaoge, whispering something.

"What's wrong? Why do you suddenly want me to hold you?"

Li Chaoge was a little confused. Selena wasn't Exusiai, nor was she Black Shemira or Platinum. She probably wasn't deliberately teasing him.

"I don't mean anything by it, I just want to feel your body temperature more clearly and listen to your heartbeat...it calms me down."

Looking at the face so close to hers, Selena murmured words that seemed to have been spoken before.

"I thought that seeing you would calm the storm in my mind."

"However, for some reason, my mind is now in turmoil."

"Hmm... Do I need to connect to my sea of ​​consciousness? Although I'm not entirely sure how to do it right now."

Seeing that Selena seemed very nervous and uneasy, Li Chaoge reached out and hugged her soft, delicate body tightly.

One of the biggest differences between Constructs and humans is that Constructs have a sea of ​​consciousness. The sea of ​​consciousness of a Construct stores the Construct's memories, and the Commander needs to stabilize the sea of ​​consciousness to prevent it from being corrupted by the Punishing Virus.

But there shouldn't be a Punishing virus in this world, so why is my consciousness suddenly fluctuating?

"No mind link is needed, Commander just needs to hold me quietly."

Selena pressed her cheek against Li Chaoge's chest, took a deep breath through her delicate nose, and tightly wrapped her slender, fair hands around his waist. Her cherry lips parted slightly as she murmured, "As long as you hold me and let me hear your breathing and heartbeat, the torrential rain that keeps swirling in my ears will suddenly stop."

"If my hug can make you feel at ease, then my hug is always open to you."

Li Chaoge looked down at Selena's face and gently tapped her forehead.

Unlike Selena's elegant appearance, when he hugged her, he found that her body was very frail and thin, which made him feel sorry for her.

The two embraced tightly, silently enjoying the tranquility of the moment.
