I am the savior, but I am being asked by Alicia and the others to pay me back.

Youlan Daier was stunned for a moment, then thought for a moment and denied:

"I just think that Ye Ming must have some important reason for doing this, and I shouldn't respond to his spirit with such frivolous thoughts."

"..."

Rita thought she knew Yulandel well enough.

But the other party's stubbornness still exceeded his expectations.

409. The first insomnia in life

"Yulan Dai'er obviously meant the same thing, there's no need to convince her!"

Ming angrily pulled the cat suit off:

"So! What's the point of dressing like this?"

"ah……"

Seeing the cat suit being thrown aside, Yulandel's depressed expression was clearly visible.

But soon, a subtle change appeared on her face. At first, she was a little surprised, and then she showed a satisfied and happy smile.

In close-up shots, the micro-expressions are clearly shown, and everyone can understand them even without explanation.

This is what Yulandel discovered. Even after taking off the cat costume, she still liked Ye Ming very much.

"You can't say it's completely useless, at least it brings you and Lady Yulandel closer, right?"

"The cost and the benefits are simply not worth it!"

"Does it cost a lot to dress up as a cat? As long as you don't wear women's clothes, everything else is fine. That's what you said, Ye Ming."

"..."

Although Ye Ming really wanted to continue arguing with Rita, now was obviously not the time to do so.

"Yulandel, let's talk about the terms."

After that, Ye Ming told all his thoughts, especially repeatedly emphasizing that Otto must not know about this.

"I can help you conceal it, but... the bishop has great connections, and I'm afraid we won't be able to conceal it just by our words."

"Then I'll just tell you the worst-case scenario."

Ye Ming said seriously:

"What would you do if Otto sent you after me?"

"I……"

Youlandel thought for a moment, then said decisively:

"If you can really remove the erosion of the artificial stigmata for the Valkyrie, I can refuse to execute the bishop's order."

“This is what I think is the right thing to do and I will take responsibility for it.”

Yulandel's innocence and gullibility are written all over her face, and on the other hand, others can easily tell whether she is lying or not.

"Without further ado, I hope to have a safe venue."

Rita also added very considerately:

"Lady Youlandel also needs to use her personal charm to guide those Valkyries to keep secrets and call on them to cover for Ye Ming."

"Charisma? I don't know much about this kind of thing."

"Oh, don't worry. Just staying your normal self is the best way to radiate your charm."

At that time, Ye Ming glanced at Rita. She knew that although this maid had a sweet mouth, she would never flatter anyone.

So at that moment, Ye Mingxiu's gaze also focused on Youlandai'er.

[It feels like this gaze is what transferred the heroine from Rita to Yulandel]

[Indeed. This shot is so touching]

"Ugh……"

Rita, who was watching the video, sighed helplessly.

She is not disgusted by her ordinariness; on the contrary, she is very grateful for such a life.

But whenever it comes to Ye Ming, that sense of satisfaction with being ordinary will be overshadowed by envy and jealousy.

"Not being able to have a magnificent love affair with Lord Ye Ming is really Rita's biggest regret."

Although under Ying's guidance, Rita has already understood that her love for Ye Ming is no less than anyone else's.

But the more I like him, the stronger my desire to become his heroine becomes.

Rita looked towards Ye Ming's room, then looked at Yulandel. She put her hands on her chest, as if she had some plan.

…………

The video continued. That night, Yulandel returned to her residence and fell asleep as usual.

She almost never dreamed, but that night she had an absurd but clear dream.

She dreamed that there was a kitten that was very close to her. Not only did it not reject her, but it also let her pet it.

Yulandel happily stroked the cat's chin and caressed its back and belly.

Just this alone was a perfect dream for Yulandel. In the dream, she was smiling happily, which was completely different from her usual solemn and dignified appearance.

However, this was not the end. The kitten actually came up to her and hugged and kissed Yulandel.

As a veteran cat lover, Youlan Dai'er naturally did not refuse. But just as she was enjoying the intimacy, the cat in her arms suddenly turned into Ye Ming.

The worst thing was that in the dream, I didn't show any resistance or surprise, but instead hugged Ye Ming more intimately...

While stroking his furry cat ears and paw pads, I rubbed his body and smelled the floral scent on him from close range.

"what!!"

After realizing that she was doing something incredible, Youlandel suddenly woke up.

That was the first time she had woken up from a dream since she could remember. But she did not feel the fear or palpitations she had imagined...

On the contrary, she still had an endless aftertaste feeling.

"What's wrong with me?"

The reason why Youlandel woke up was not because the cat that was interacting closely with her turned into Ye Ming.

On the contrary, it was because she had no resistance to Ye Ming dressed as a cat, and even did the same rude thing as Rita did that day.

This was obviously a mistake for the upright Yulandel, and it was also the reason why she could not accept this dream.

"What Ye Ming wants to do is so important. But I had this strange dream... Should I apologize to him?"

Probably the only person in this world who would apologize for her dream is Yulandel.

[The silly goose is still the silly goose, too straightforward]

[Why do you think the name "Dai Goose" is a consensus among players all over the world?]

"However, even if you want to apologize, you can't disturb him at this time. You should go to bed early."

Thinking of this, Yulandel lay down again, but this time, she couldn't fall asleep at all.

"..."

As long as I close my eyes, Ye Ming's figure will appear in my mind.

Yulandel felt that this was disrespectful to Ye Ming, and she kept condemning herself and "ordering" her brain to stop thinking about him.

But those who have experienced it know that the brain can sometimes be very rebellious.

It's like before an important exam, you can't sleep at night, the more you tell yourself that you have to get up early tomorrow, so you have to sleep now...

The more alert your brain is, the harder it is to fall asleep.

Yulandel was in the same situation at this moment. The more she forced herself not to think about Ye Ming, the clearer Ye Ming's figure became.

For her, this night was a time of many firsts.

It was the first time I dreamt about such an impolite scene, the first time I experienced the feeling of waking up from a dream, and the first time I suffered from insomnia.

"Insomnia……"

——"Let me guess~~You have never suffered from insomnia and always slept soundly?" Chapter 410. High emotional intelligence: Are you interested in becoming Zhongli's ultimate move?

——"Let me guess~~You have never had insomnia and always slept soundly?"

At that moment, Yunru's words to her flashed in Youlandel's mind like a flash of inspiration.

"Is it because I have troubles that I haven't been able to overcome and extra desires that I suffer from insomnia?"

As Youlan Daier thought about this, she soon remembered Yunru's other words:

"Do you have anything you particularly like? Something you would like to do or get even if you are about to die."

"Something that can really keep you awake all night, and even keep haunting you until you die."

"..."

Thinking of these things, Yulandel opened her eyes wide in surprise.

Because the current situation was quite similar to what Yunru described, Youlan Daier also thought that Ye Ming was the answer she wanted at that moment.

"No, you can't think like that."

But soon, Yulandel began to reflect on herself again.

"It must be something very important that he kept thinking about it even before he died."

"Fight against the collapse, fight for all the beauty in the world, and protect those who are worth protecting."

"This is the answer I should be looking for, the destination I should reach."

Although she had come to what she thought was the most correct conclusion, Ye Ming's figure still appeared in Youlan Dai'er's mind.

Even so, she shook her head and denied it:

"The duty of a Valkyrie, the faith of Mr. Ragnar... I still have a lot of important things to do, and I can't let my likes and desires cloud my mind."

[I can’t hold it anymore. Why can’t preferences and desires be the answer?]

[Yun Ru has already said what she particularly likes, so why doesn’t liking Ye Ming count?]

[Because she is Yulandel]

Suddenly, a short comment ended the argument.

Just as the barrage said, this is Yulandel, glorious, upright, with a noble soul and great goals.

Falling in love like an ordinary girl or following her inner desires was not something she thought of at all.

After that, Ye Ming's crazy "suicide journey" began.

The first ones to receive treatment were not those with particularly severe erosion.

Because such Valkyries are usually in the medical institutions of the Skyward Sword, it would be easy for Otto to find them if he went directly to them.

We must first find those Valkyries who are willing to cooperate, use Yulandel as the banner, unite these people together, and cooperate with each other to conceal Otto's eyes and ears.

Only when Ye Ming and Youlandel's network of contacts is large enough can they better help all the Valkyries.

"Is it my illusion..."

After spending a long time together, Youlan Daier would always have a strange vision when looking at Ye Ming.

"Lord Yulandel, what's wrong?"

Seeing Youlan Daier staring at Ye Ming from afar and muttering to herself, Rita asked curiously:

"Is it because I haven't seen Ye Ming in cat costume for a long time? Do you miss him?"

"No, that's not what I meant..."

Although she was denying it, a faint pink color appeared on Yulandel's face, and it seemed that she still missed him a little.

"Rita, do you feel that Ye Ming has the shadow of Teacher Ragnar?"

“Oops~~”

Rita was stunned for a moment, then smiled gently:
