Seeing this, Paimon knew he couldn't talk to Li Chaoge, so he could only mutter something and fly to the top of Li Chaoge's head, trying to press Li Chaoge down with his small body.
Besides her and Ying, Sigma is Chaoge's AI daughter, and Qingge is Chaoge's adopted sister in this world.
Although none of them are blood relatives, if we're talking about closeness of relationship, it seems like she's the one most distantly related?!
"Paimon, get down here! You can't sit like that while we're chatting."
As Li Chaoge's head sank, he somewhat speechlessly grabbed Paimon's chubby little leg that was dangling in front of him and placed the little Paimon in Sigma's arms.
He held Sigma in his arms, Sigma held Paimon in his arms, and Qingge and Ying were on either side of him. This was the correct way to chat.
"Brother, you can still chat with us? Aren't you tired?"
Ying crossed her arms and sat on the edge of the bed with her legs crossed. Seeing that Li Chaoge acted as if nothing had happened, she couldn't help but purse her lips.
Since it was bedtime, Ying and Qingge took a shower and changed into their pajamas—Ying wore a black spaghetti strap nightgown, while Qingge wore a white spaghetti strap nightgown.
Although the two were wearing the same style of silk nightgown, their styles were clearly different.
Against the backdrop of her stark black nightgown, Ying's fair thighs seemed even more dazzling than the lights themselves, and her smile, as if she'd just swallowed a little jealous, carried a seductive, almost dark, allure. In contrast, Qingge, with her cascading black hair falling naturally over her fair shoulders, appeared pure and sweet.
I don't know why the two of them suddenly wore these pajamas that look like matching outfits.
While holding Sigma, Li Chaoge secretly glanced at the two people beside him who were completely unsuspecting, and shook his head, saying, "How could I be tired from accompanying you?"
"Brother, didn't you just spend time with several people? Aren't you tired and want to sleep?"
"Of course not, I'm well-rested, I can chat with you until dawn."
"Oh, you only called us after you'd rested enough."
Ying chuckled and glanced at Qingge on the other side.
Li Chaoge then noticed Ying's purpose in asking him questions and looked at Qingge as well.
"Well......"
Qingge, who had been too shy to speak since entering, immediately lowered her head, and two blushes silently rose on her fair and delicate face.
Even now, her mind is still filled with all sorts of exciting conversations between Isabella, Moxi, and Katya.
Conversations between best friends can be uninhibited, and they can talk about anything, even the most explicit topics. However, in front of this person who is more like a brother than a blood brother, she still felt a little embarrassed to talk about those topics.
She could easily leave aside general topics about her brother; she couldn't stop people from talking about how great he was, nor did she want to. But when Katya mentioned that her brother had so many perfectly recreated cosplayers around him, they must have watched Yosuga no Sora, and their conversation veered towards R15+ content.
Starting with Luminous, who plays the role of Luminous in Genshin Impact, the discussion extends to Sora Aragaki and Yosuga no Sora, and then back to her, discussing whether a fake sister who is not a biological sister is considered a sister in her brother's eyes.
What are her brother's feelings towards her? Does he see her as a sister and want to be a good brother? Or does he not see her as a sister at all? If he does see her as a sister, will he be indifferent and uninterested because she is not his biological sister?
She did have some understanding of some of the topics, but since most of them were outrageous and specifically said to tease her, even when Qingge suggested that everyone become her sister-in-law to retaliate, it was useless.
I wish my brother could teach these roommates, who are so serious in front of him but not at all in private, a lesson.
"..." Li Chaoge glanced at the shy Qingge, reached out and pinched Ying's cheeks, pulling them to both sides.
That scoundrel Ying is always flirting with Qingge.
"He resorts to violence when he can't win an argument; what a bad older brother."
With her face pinched, Ying could only mumble incoherently, but she didn't struggle. After all, the only tricks her brother could use against her were a few small schemes.
As for her other methods, she didn't do anything bad, she just occasionally caused her brother some minor trouble, but given her brother's personality, it's impossible for him to do anything about it.
"If you keep being naughty, you'll realize you're wrong."
Seeing Ying's fearless expression, as if she were a dead pig unafraid of boiling water and that he could do whatever he wanted to her, Li Chaoge had no choice but to release her face and slap her thigh hard, "threatening" Ying to stop causing trouble.
If Exusiai, Black, or any of the others deliberately provoke him, they'll all have to be forced to kneel down and enjoy the "punishment" he just devised.
Unfortunately, the person in front of him was Ying, who should have once been the princess of the abyss.
It goes without saying how much difference there is between Luminosity, who is also a traveler but has not lost her memories and powers, and his current strength. If he doesn't use unconventional methods, no matter what attack he makes, it will only tickle Luminosity.
But unconventional methods...
Li Chaoge glanced at the blonde Ying in the black silk nightgown, then at the Mo Se Qingge in the white silk nightgown on the other side, and finally looked down at Sigma and Paimon, shaking his head helplessly.
Forget it, let's just chat for a bit and then go to sleep.
At times like this, if he does something slightly out of line, he could easily corrupt the children, so it's best not to try to teach Ying a lesson.
The ability to stop time is amazing, but unfortunately, Ying's relationship with him hasn't reached the point where they can enter time together.
"My brother, isn't he tempted at all?"
Seeing Li Chaoge's gaze linger on them for a moment before settling back on Sigma and chatting with him, Ying looked down at herself, then at Qingge, whose size was even smaller than hers, her eyes flickering.
I don't know if my brother's taste has been spoiled by those women, or if he has entered a sage mode, but he spends less time looking at them than usual.
She and Qingge looked great in their matching black and white pajama sets, even though they didn't look alike and couldn't match the style of Xier and Hei Xi.
Ying muttered to herself, this nightgown was naturally her idea, Qingge herself would never have considered it.
Although Qingge usually doesn't pay much attention to the separation between men and women, and has never been too particular about what clothes she wears in front of Li Chaoge since she was a child, she had never thought of the clothes that Ying suggested, which could only cover her thighs and were even a little see-through.
Although it's called a nightgown, wearing this in front of my brother makes me feel even more embarrassed than just wearing underwear.
But if Ying is wearing it, can she not wear it? If she doesn't wear it, her brother will only look at Ying.
The two are nominally equal, but Qingge now feels that Ying is using various means to bring her closer to Ying after so many years of feelings.
She usually doesn't have time to be by her side because she's studying at school, so it's naturally Hikari who takes care of her brother. Even though there are many girls around her brother, she believes that Hikari, who stays by her brother's side as his sister from another world, is more likely to be noticed and liked by him.
Because the older brother is very traditional, even if it's just a sister from another world with no actual blood relation, he will care about her just because of the way she's called "sister".
Having enjoyed Li Chaoge's care over the years, Qingge knew this very well: her brother's views were relatively conservative and traditional, but not in a corrupt or outdated way.
She always thought her brother was a gentle, responsible, and idealistic gentleman. In order to be a sister worthy of her brother, she, who used to cry and make a fuss when she was young, gradually became a quiet, elegant, and well-mannered young lady in the eyes of many people.
Although now it seems that my brother's traditional lifestyle has risen from that of an ordinary commoner to that of an ancient emperor, with three palaces, six courtyards, and seventy-two concubines no longer satisfying him...
Qingge silently watched Li Chaoge chatting and laughing with Ying and the others beside her. The extremely familiar face seemed somewhat unfamiliar under the increasingly ethereal and indifferent temperament, and her vision blurred for a moment.
It's a good thing that her brother is becoming more and more popular, but... why does it seem like he's drifting further away from her...?
Chapter 224. The little hands in the dark, under the covers, were icy cold.
"Qingge, have you thought this through?"
"after?"
Qingge snapped out of her thoughts and looked at Li Chaoge, who had suddenly turned the topic to her, with a puzzled expression.
"You know that Ying and the others are from another world. If I go to another world in the future, what are your thoughts? Do you want to stay with Mom and Dad or come with me to another world?"
Li Chaoge explained that because Azur Lane has ship equipment that can help Qingge protect herself, he is more inclined to let Qingge go to other worlds with him.
However, he still let Qingge make the decision herself. Although Qingge always obeyed him, she was never his subordinate and had her own will. He would let Qingge make the decision for any important matters.
"Does my brother want to leave this world?"
Upon hearing that Li Chaoge was going to another world, Qingge stared at him in a daze. This day had come so quickly...
She knew that ever since these so-called second girls came to her brother's side, he had become increasingly distant and estranged from her, but she thought that day wouldn't come so soon...
"To be precise, it's about traveling to other worlds. It's okay if you don't come with me. I'll still come back later, since you're all here."
Seeing Qingge staring intently at him, Li Chaoge quickly continued to explain.
He knew that Qingge was in a difficult position between her mother and him, after all, one was her biological mother and the other was her adopted brother.
Although Qingge was often accompanied by him, it was impossible to discuss whether blood ties or feelings were more important; it all depended on individual perspectives.
"I'll go with my brother!"
Qingge heard Li Chaoge's words clearly this time, and knowing that she could leave with him, she did not hesitate.
"Uh, Qingge, won't you reconsider? This is a very important matter."
Li Chaoge was taken aback. Actually, it was quite normal for Qingge to go to other worlds with him, but seeing her agree so decisively, he couldn't help but worry that Qingge hadn't thought it through.
"Besides your parents, you won't be able to see your friends either."
"Brother, didn't you say you were just going on a trip?"
"But the timing is uncertain; it could be only a few months, or it could be several years before I return."
Li Chaoge still hoped that Qingge would give it more consideration.
In today's society, apart from family, many friends get busy with their own things once they are apart, and even close best friends will drift apart.
"As long as I can come back to see my mother and uncles, there won't be any problems."
Seeing Li Chaoge's concern that she might make a hasty decision, Qingge couldn't help but smile slightly.
She got along very well with her roommates. With their character, figure and appearance, these girls were not only good friends and roommates, but also good best friends who could be her sister-in-law.
But they are incomparable to their brother.
After all, family is the most important thing.
"uncle?"
Sigma, who had been looking up at Li Chaoge and Qingge talking, blinked, puzzled by the word "uncle" that came out of Qingge's mouth.
How did an uncle suddenly appear between my father and this aunt called Qingge?
"You know that Qingge and I are not biological siblings, right?"
Li Chaoge, seeing Sigma, the curious little one, ask why, smiled and patted her little head, explaining.
"Hmm, but why does Sister Qingge call your father 'uncle'?"
Sigma nodded his little head to indicate that he understood, but he still didn't quite understand.
"In the laws of the human world, Qingge's mother and my father need to register their marriage and obtain a marriage certificate before they can be considered my and Qingge's parents. Otherwise, it would be more appropriate for Qingge to call my father 'uncle'."
Li Chaoge explained while patting Sigma's little head.
"Actually, people can call each other whatever they want, but they haven't gotten married yet, and they don't even live together. They're just neighbors who live close by."
"Oh~ If my dad and I register our marriage, can we get a father-daughter certificate too?!"
Sigma's eyes lit up when she heard that she could register for marriage. She had been waiting for the day when she could truly become human, but now it seemed that there was an even faster shortcut. As long as she registered, she could become father and daughter with her father!
"Uh, there's no such thing as a father-daughter certificate."
Ying and Paimon, who were watching from the side, were speechless. They were watching carefully, how did it suddenly turn into a parenting channel?
It's supposed to be artificial intelligence, yet it doesn't even know these basic facts.
“Sigma, we don’t need any proof.”
Li Chaoge shook his head and smiled, looking rather helpless.
He knew there were many things Sigma didn't understand, but he didn't let Sigma scan to gain that knowledge. Once Sigma understood those things, this innocent and adorable little cotton-padded jacket would turn into a black-hearted cotton-padded jacket.
"Hmm... Daddy is right. No legal proof is needed. Sigma is still Daddy's most obedient and well-behaved daughter!"
Sigma thought about it and agreed. He reached out and hugged Li Chaoge, happily nodding his little head and burying it in Li Chaoge's chest, a childlike and innocent smile on his face.
She is not human, so it's impossible for her to refer to human laws. However, given her father's affection for her, there's really no need for any proof to confirm this.
"Since you have no objections, Qingge, let's go on our trip and think about how to talk to them when we get back. They'll worry if we don't hear from them for several years."
After dealing with Sigma, Li Chaoge brought the topic back to the present.
Unlike Qingge, who grew up under his influence and became intelligent, quick-witted, and understanding, Li Chaoge had no intention of telling his parents everything.
Their love for each other was unquestionable, but he also knew that his father, who had little education in the countryside, and Qingge's mother had some deeply ingrained beliefs that he really didn't know how to explain.
After all, they might not even understand the concept of time travel. If someone said they were going to travel to another world, they would probably think they were mentally ill.
"If... I mean if, brother, if we leave, will Mother and Uncle be free from any obstacles?"
When Li Chaoge mentioned his family, Qingge hesitated for a moment, then lowered her head and whispered.
She had considered her mother and brother's father.
They clearly have feelings for each other, but they've only been neighbors for so many years and they've remained divorced without remarrying. This is likely related to both her and her brother.
"Hmm? Uh, Qingge, what do you mean?"
Li Chaoge was taken aback. Did Qingge mean they should elope? Leaving without saying goodbye wasn't a good idea.
"Hey, I'm still here."
Seeing that things weren't going well between Qingge and Li Chaoge, Ying glared at Qingge with a sharp look in her eyes, crossed her arms, and stared at her with obvious displeasure.
