Lu Xining... is like a ball of fire.

……

At 11:00 a.m., Fan Xiao and Lu Baizhi left the residential area and headed to the east of Ancheng.

Since his own mode of transportation was at home, Fan Xiao temporarily borrowed Lu Xining's recently purchased 911, a car with a very rounded appearance.

The front looks quite cute, which is probably why Lu Xining bought it.

In the passenger seat, Lu Baizhi held a fountain pen. Whenever they reached an intersection, she would spin the pen and toss it in the air, then use the direction pointed to by the pen tip to guide Fan Xiao.

While relying on luck to choose her path, she said to Fan Xiao, "Fan Xiao, do you think... my sister is sick?"

Chapter 317 The Subtle Influence of My Sister

"I'm sick..."

Upon hearing Lu Baizhi's question, Fan Xiao countered, "Why do you ask that?"

“Sister’s face is so red,” Lu Baizhi said. “It’s even redder than when I was eating breakfast. That’s not normal.”

"She probably ran for too long today and hasn't recovered yet."

Fan Xiao said, "With the evolution rate of a C-level player, they are completely immune to colds and the like."

"Moreover, after becoming a C-level player, Xi Ning should have access to C-level healing potions. Even if she really gets sick, it's just a matter of one potion."

"Besides, you're here, aren't you? Don't worry about her."

"My sister also changed her socks and clothes."

Lu Baizhi asked suspiciously, "When Mingming brought breakfast back, she had already taken a shower and changed her clothes once, and then changed them again less than an hour later... Could it be because she has a cold and sweats a lot? Should I treat her when I get back?"

"..."

Fan Xiao tilted his head slightly, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught the girl's sincere questioning gaze, and a slight embarrassment arose in his heart.

Lu Xining changed her clothes and socks because they were stained again...

Fan Xiao began to reflect on whether he had been indulging his desires too much.

Lu Xining's enthusiasm was as fiery as fire, making it difficult for anyone to resist.

If this continues... I feel like it's delaying important matters.

It seems I'll have to be a little more restrained in the future.

Moreover, if they are too unrestrained, there is a possibility that Lu Baizhi will find out.

If that outcome really happens... he'll be quite embarrassed.

Speaking of which... when Bai Zhi uses her B-level talent to heal the human body, will she be able to repair any injury?

that……

"Don't overthink it, Zhizi." Fan Xiao stopped his wandering thoughts and said, "Trust in the constitution of a C-level player; they don't catch colds that easily."

"Um... turn right at this intersection."

Lu Baizhi pointed to the crossroads ahead.

Actually, she wanted to complain a bit more. There seemed to be a very faint, strange smell in the living room, and she suspected that her sister was behind it.

But she wasn't entirely sure what exactly she was doing.

I have a feeling... that my sister is hiding something from her.

I must investigate this thoroughly when I get home tonight!

"Turn left here."

Lu Baizhi tossed the pen up and let it fall, then pointed in a new direction.

After wandering around for more than half an hour, the two arrived near an upscale residential area by the river.

After that, no matter which direction Lu Baizhi pointed with the pen, it would eventually return to the vicinity of the residential area.

After driving around the neighborhood several times, Fan Xiao had to stop.

"It seems this is the place you wanted to come to."

Fan Xiao glanced at the gate of the residential area not far away and asked Lu Baizhi, "Do you remember this place?"

Anyway, he didn't remember it at all.

He originally thought that Lu Baizhi wanted to go somewhere near his old home, since he guessed that he and Lu Baizhi should have met nine years ago.

As it turns out... this neighborhood is three districts away from his hometown, and it takes several transfers and about an hour to get there by subway. They are practically unrelated.

“No,” Lu Baizhi shook her head and said, “I don’t recognize this neighborhood.”

"Do you know anyone here?" Fan Xiao continued to ask.

"no?"

Lu Baizhi's tone was uncertain: "I'm not quite sure either. Although we used to live in Ancheng, we lost contact with other relatives after we moved, and we haven't been in touch much over the years."

"Where in Ancheng did you used to live?"

While asking the questions, Fan Xiao took out his phone and started checking the map.

“Tianhu District,” Lu Xining said, “is in the same district as this residential area, but it’s a bit far from here.”

She also took out her phone and searched, then said, "It takes about 20 minutes to drive there from here."

"20 minutes... Let's go in and take a look. Maybe we can stumble upon some clues by chance."

Fan Xiao opened the car door and got out.

Seeing this, Lu Baizhi quickly opened the door and followed her out.

After locking the car, Fan Xiao led Lu Baizhi towards the entrance of the residential area.

The security system at the entrance of the upscale residential community is quite good; non-residents are not allowed to enter, and even the underground parking garage only allows registered vehicles to enter.

Just as Lu Baizhi was thinking about how to sneak in, she suddenly realized that the guards' eyes were not on her and Fan Xiao.

Fan Xiao arrived at the door, leaped over the iron bars, and waved to her.

"..."

Lu Baizhi pressed down on her skirt with both hands, slightly bent her knees and jumped, easily vaulting over the iron railing.

After entering, she couldn't help but ask, "Fan Xiao, is this... you used illusion magic?"

"Just avoiding unnecessary trouble."

Fan Xiao met the girl's gaze and suggested, "Let's keep throwing pens and see if we can get lucky again."

As he spoke, he glanced to his right.

Yan Keke emerged from the random entrance he had opened and was looking around with curiosity.

While looking her over, she said in a tone as if reporting a task, "Brother Fan, after you entered the 'Green Mountain Prison' instance last time, 'Fairy Tale Town' opened again."

"Two players have died at the hands of monsters created by the players."

"Um... what should we do with their bodies?"

The little girl's expression was somewhat downcast.

Fan Xiao patted her hair and comforted her, "The death is the fault of the Evolution Game. The game forcibly locked a certain level of difficulty. It's not your fault, so don't worry about it too much."

"As for the corpses... send them out to random locations through the entrance, hopefully they can return to their respective zones."

"Well...I see."

Yan Keke nodded gently.

"By the way, Brother Fan," she asked, "how did the last dungeon run go?"

"Don't you have confidence in me yet?" Fan Xiao smiled and said, "Everything is going smoothly, as always."

"Okay, that's good." Yan Keke said, "We've gained a new story this time..."

She began sharing new dark fairy tales she had heard from the players.

Fan Xiao actually had some opinions about the "dark fairy tale" aspect.

The storytelling segment was originally an entertainment activity he had set up for the little girls.

As a result, when upgrading to D-rank dungeons, the rules were changed to tell a dark story due to game intervention and modifications.

I wonder if they'll have nightmares after hearing so many stories like this...

"This way."

At this moment, Lu Baizhi used a fountain pen to throw out a new direction.

Fan Xiao nodded: "Let's go."

The two used a pen to point the way and wandered around the neighborhood.

Fan Xiao focused his attention and began to observe his surroundings.

To his disappointment, after spending more than half an hour searching all the public areas of the community, they found nothing.

Are we supposed to visit each household one by one?

But... Lu Baizhi's pen never pointed at any particular household.

"Um... I'm sorry," Lu Baizhi said apologetically, "I... I don't know why I wanted to come here. It seems... there's nothing I want here."

“Let’s go out and take a look,” Fan Xiao said. “Just now in the car, you threw it in the direction of the vicinity of the community, not inside the community. Maybe we’re overthinking it.”

Seeing that Lu Baizhi seemed a little reserved, he reached out and patted the girl's shoulder, saying, "It's okay, I just came out to go shopping with you today. Don't be so reserved, relax."

"Um... then... then I won't be so reserved."

Lu Baizhi, suppressing her embarrassment, blushed and said, "Fan Xiao, can we...can we hold hands? After all, it's...a date..."

"..."

After all, it was his own words... Fan Xiao quickly composed himself and smiled, "Of course, is that all you ask for? This doesn't seem like a date."

"Well... I'm here."

Lu Baizhi suddenly moved closer and hugged Fan Xiao's arm from the side.

Fan Xiao immediately felt his left arm enveloped in an extremely soft sensation, and a fragrance wafted over, lingering in his nose and making him daydream.

Lu Baizhi's cheeks were flushed, and she said in a very soft voice, "Let's... go."

"...Well, let's go."

Bai Zhi is getting bolder and bolder. It seems I can't joke around with her anymore, she'll take it seriously... Fan Xiao told himself.

In the past, how could a young girl dare to do such a thing?

It seems she really has been influenced by her sister.

What Fan Xiao didn't know was that Lu Baizhi's attitude towards dating was "developing relationships in stages".

Getting to know each other, becoming acquainted, confessing feelings, holding hands, hugging, kissing, caressing, intimate contact...

Once she reaches a certain stage, she will no longer psychologically resist the next stage.

Back in Roman City, Lu Xining played a trick on them, causing them to misunderstand and believe they had kissed.

Although it was fake, Lu Baizhi was unaware of it and took it all as true.

So... the girl was actually mentally prepared.

Soon, the two left the residential area and returned to their parking spot.

After walking a little further, the scenery along the river came into view.

On the right, there is a large bridge spanning the river.

Lu Baizhi suddenly spoke up: "It seems to be...this place? I think this is the place I came from."

"I wanted to come here..."
