The Girls Are All Coveting Me

"Senior, can you guess who gave the rainbow candy to the little foodie?"

However, Miseria just smiled and said:

"I can't say who gave it, but the jar of candy in your hand definitely wasn't given by that child."

Chloe paused for a moment.

He was angry.

He took out his phone and started texting the little foodie.

Ke: [Little foodie, I want some rainbow candy too]

Little Foodie: [Huh? Senior, don't you already have a lot?]

Ke: [Ate them all, I want yours]

Little Foodie: [(Doubtful.jpg) I'll bring some for you tomorrow then]

Miseria looked at Chloe, who was sulking there, and couldn't help but smile wryly.

"Junior, has anyone ever told you you're really childish?"

"I call it striving for everything."

"Haha, alright, alright. Are you resting today? Want to have dinner with me?"

"Forget it, I'm not going."

"I'll wash the cup for you then, let's reschedule another day."

"No need, let the cleaning staff handle it." Chloe stopped her and said, "Senior, you should also go back and rest early."

Miseria turned her head, radiating a bright smile:

"That would be a bother."

Chloe waved his hand, intending to head back to his room.

The next moment, he heard light footsteps behind him.

A light tap on his shoulder.

He turned around to see Miseria's clean and gentle eyes, with a faint tear mole beneath them.

She whispered, "Junior, I'm really thankful to you."

"Pfft, Senior, how many times are you going to thank me? Please, just go."

He couldn't help recalling their first meeting. Who would've thought that the two who initially didn't get along would have such a good relationship now?

And also...

"By the way, I actually wanted to say this in the maze."

"Hmm?"

Chloe blinked and placed his index finger on his cheek, saying:

"As expected, the glasses really seal Senior's looks."

"Haha, Junior, you sure know how to sweet talk, but I like listening."

...

After Miseria left. Chapters fırst released on novel•fire.net

Chloe went to check on Rephya.

Master Nini was hovering around her, setting up a healing array.

Chloe stepped forward and asked,

"Nini, how's Rephya doing?"

"Mainly there's no physical harm, don't worry, Xiaoke. She just needs a good sleep."

"Alright, Nini, do you want to join me for dinner?"

"No, the school has a meeting tonight. I'll head there after I escort Rephya back to her room."

"Okay, I'll head out first then."

After leaving the Amber Hall, Chloe intended to find some food on his own.

He didn't expect Lilith to suddenly call.

"Hey, Senior Lilith, what's up?"

[Do you have plans tomorrow?]

"Ah, no, planning to take a few days off, otherwise I'll be absent again this year."

[So you're free tomorrow, right?]

"Not exactly, I have to deal with the rewards from the principal and higher-ups."

[Is that so? Then come out with me for a walk tomorrow.]

"Senior, did you really listen to what I said?"

[Juggle things around and keep me company, okay?]

"But I've been quite busy lately, Senior, is there something you need?"

[Want to settle down with you, can't I? If you ask again, you won't be cute!]

"Ahem."

Chloe coughed, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"...So what time tomorrow?"

[Ahaha, let's meet at noon. I've missed you a bit.]

Seemingly remembering something, Lilith's voice on the other side of the phone became a tad shy.

[So if I don't contact you, you won't reach out to me? It's making me mad!]

"Uh~"

[Clearly after doing this and that to me, are you just going to toss me aside after having your fun?]

"No, it's because I've been dealing with some issues lately."

[...You haven't been targeted by the Evil God's Followers again, have you?]

"Pretty much, just had a fight with their demigod."

[Are you alright? I'll come find you now!]

"Haha, I'm fine. I used some trump cards and took him out. Probably, his Extraordinary Traits will still need to be sold through your channels."

[As long as you're okay… but it's rare. I thought you'd refuse me this time too like before.]

"The situation now is different from before, you know our circumstances."

[Then… see you tomorrow. If you're afraid of dreaming of me tonight, let Xiaozuo and Xiaoyou help you first!]

After hanging up the phone.

Chloe quietly watched the crowd coming and going on campus.

"Ah, I was supposed to handle the association's work tomorrow!"

He huffed and said:

"Now it's even busier, can't stand it!"

He just didn't realize that his upturned smile was harder to suppress than an AK.

"Hey, Daniel?"

"Hmm? What do you mean I'm pulling one over on you again? We're good buddies, do you think I'm that kind of person?"

"What? You say that I am."

"...Well, congratulations, you know me too well, the Maze supplies might need you to handle them yourself."

"What? You say you want to go on strike?"

"Good buddy, in this batch of supplies we got, I noticed there are materials that the Mad Lion Association urgently needs, don't you want to show off to your brother?"

After hanging up the phone again, Chloe finally revealed a satisfied smile.

…

The next day.

Location: Outer City of the Ether Emblem · some square

Lilith placed her small satchel to the side, her face showing a hint of impatience.

"Ah, why hasn't he come yet, seriously, making me wait so long! I really want to punch him!"

Suddenly, a pair of hands covered her eyes from behind.

"Ah!"

Shocked, Lilith almost jumped up.

But hearing the "guess who?" voice, her intention to fight back instantly softened.

"You, how come you're here so early today?"

"Eh? It's just half an hour earlier than agreed, not that early."

Chloe released his hands and leaned down to whisper in her ear:

"After all, if I was any later, it wouldn't just be about a punch."

Lilith instinctively turned her head:

"Who said they were going to punch you."

"Hehe, sorry for the wait, Daniel had some documents that needed my personal attention."

Chloe looked at Lilith, whose ears were already flushed, and said.

Lilith's gaze wandered as she stood up and said:

"Since there's a reason, I won't blame you then."

She wrapped her hand around Chloe's arm and said:

"Let's go! It's already noon, I'm starving, let's get something to eat first."

Chloe looked at the hand tightly lodged in the snowy mountains and hesitated:

"Senior, isn't that a bit too close?"

"I'm not listening, I'm not listening!"

"So what are we gonna eat?"

"Eat you, today I want to eat you up completely..."

Chloe hurriedly covered her mouth.

Of course, with his hand.

"Senior, there are so many people here!"

Muffled, Lilith made a whimpering sound.

The next moment.

Chloe felt a moist tongue lick his palm.

He instinctively let go of his hand, only to see Lilith looking at him with dazzling eyes, saying:

"Sorry, I said the wrong thing."

"You..."

"Should be you eating me."

Typical Lilith.

Always so astonishingly articulate.

Passersby couldn't help but gaze enviously upon hearing this.

There's no denying it.

This feels quite gratifying.

But Chloe still coughed and said:

"Senior, they might hear us."

"No worries, we'll go all night anyway today."

Chloe lowered his head and glanced at Lilith.

He found her cheeks had unknowingly turned red.

Seeing his gaze, Lilith puffed out her chest and said:

"So what if they hear, we were planning to nest anyway."

Chloe: ...

Clearly, she's too shy to look him in the eye, yet she keeps talking.

"Hmph, I'm doing it intentionally, no one's shy after that kind of thing, right?"

"..."

"Being with a beauty like me, shouldn't you feel proud?"

"Proud of what?"

Lilith turned her head, her long hair cascading down, exuding an alluring charm:

"Proud of conquering such a goddess in every sense!"

Chloe fell silent.

Typical you.

How do you say such astonishing things with such an innocent expression.
