Lilith looked at the torn black stockings with a headache and said:

"You rascal, now my stockings are beyond saving."

"Should I buy you a new pair?"

"No, I really liked this pair."

"But they're ruined. What should we do?"

"Lick them clean!"

"Huh?"

"Haha, just kidding, could you throw them away for me?"

As they chatted, Chloe remembered something.

"By the way, how did you know about me and Fufu, senior?"

"On the day of the Lantern Festival, when you went to the hotel, I was checking some properties nearby and saw you entering and leaving the hotel."

"Alright, that makes sense."

The Lantern Festival on the Stars Continent holds a special significance.

Appearing at a hotel at such a time and evening carries obvious meanings.

The claim that nothing happened at a hotel that night is pure nonsense.

A bit of craziness, several pieces of trouble.

Chloe used Plant Magic to gather the plants covering the rooftop.

Then he used Shadow Jump to take Lilith through the rooftop door.

Lilith seemed very tired.

She didn't care about the possible dust in the hallway, quietly sitting there.

Chloe gently wiped away the sweat from her forehead and said:

"Sorry, because the President looked too tempting just now."

—So he couldn't help but indulge.

"I'll go get you something to drink, stay here and don't move."

"No, no need. You should head home quickly."

"Are you mad that I was too rough earlier?"

"Of course not!"

Her voice grew a bit louder.

After a moment, the Beauty President's gaze wandered, saying:

"I... I just feel weak in my legs and can't walk."

Chloe was helpless.

Is Fantasist's constitution that weak?

Or is it simply just Lilith's issue?

He vaguely remembered Lilith couldn't walk at Amber Hall last time too.

Seeing the President embarrassed by her current state being spotted by others, he could only say:

"I'll head back first. If anything comes up, remember to call me."

"Okay."

Watching Chloe descending the stairs while glancing back at her, Lilith finally couldn't help but chuckle once the sounds faded from the stairway.

"He's still so cute."

"Ah, I originally just wanted to see him, but why does it always turn out like this?"

"But if it's him, dad probably won't object?"

Moments later.

Lilith blushed and lowered her head in frustration.

Damned, damned, damned.

Does she have a problem in her head?

Their relationship just took a step forward, and she's already thinking about how to deal with her dad.

Speaking of which, what did she originally intend to do?

Ah...

She originally just wanted him to join the Fantasy Association, challenge a perfect healing.

But now it seems she's the one "healing" his fire?

"This is so annoying! Lilith, you idiot!"

"Even if I'm an idiot, I still like it."

"Eek!"

Lilith was startled.

At the hallway entrance, there stood Chloe, who had somehow come back up.

"Why did you come back?"

"Ta-da!" Chloe raised a can of banana milk and said, "Ice-cold milk, I've seen many girls love drinking this."

Lilith snorted lightly and said:

"I don't really drink milk."

"I know." In the next moment, he placed a cup of hot coffee in her hand, "This one's for you, with added sugar."

Previously at the Fantasy Association, he saw Lilith complaining about Miseria's unsweetened coffee.

Lilith looked at Chloe blankly and said:

"Idiot, come closer."

"What's wrong?" Chloe moved closer and said, "Did I buy the wrong thing?"

"No..." Lilith's eyes were overflowing with love, "I'm just thinking I should consider how to handle my dad."

She lightly pecked his lips:

"You ought to leave quickly. The chauffeur is arriving soon."

Chloe placed the hot coffee in her hand, warming her cold hands before saying:

"Let me know once you're in the car."

"Hmm."

This time, Chloe departed in a somewhat awkward manner.

Watching Chloe disappear from the stairway, Lilith held the warm coffee, feeling the warmth seeping deep into her heart.

She was sure.

This time, it's not the walnuts' influence.

Lilith too is getting drawn in.

"What should I do?" She buried her head in her knees, "I even thought about the kids' names just now."

...

Downstairs at the restaurant.

Chloe finally calmed his heartbeat after a long while.

Oh no, oh no, oh no!

Have I really become a jerk?

Chloe was genuinely shocked moments ago.

If the Beauty President's usual allure is a 99, the missing 1 is Chloe's caution.

Because the world doesn't have perfect faces.

But Lilith, pleading with him, maxed out temptation, adding 50 extra allure to her looks.

And with the satisfaction of conquering a proud beauty, another 50 points added.

These 199 points seemed like the ultimate to him.

Yet, those eyes misted with water looking at him, offering a delicate kiss, though just a brush, had his heart pounding at that moment...

He truly felt his heartbeat race.

Indescribable emotions flooded his being, a hint of fondness surprisingly spread.

Just moments later.

He suddenly felt a cold sweat on his back.

Sequence Six's keen perception let him immediately realize he was being watched.

He quickly spun around, ready to summon the Thunderous Battle Halberd, but then saw the source of the gaze.

"Xiaolu?"

Seeing Rephya hiding behind the utility pole, secretly peeking at him, Chloe cancelled his summoning gesture and approached, saying:

"Rephya, why are you here?"

"Trans..."

"Huh?"

"Pervert! Lewd freak! Scumbag! Debauched senior!"

"Huh?"

"How could you...! How could you be with Senior Lilith at Tian Tian...!"

"Rephya, calm down!"

"How could you do such things there... Are you crazy, senior?"

Damn.

Chloe froze.

No.

They went to the rooftop clearly where no one should be at that time.

Moreover, he specifically used magic for soundproofing.

Xiaolu could hear all this.

Chloe's a smart guy.

Quickly grasping the situation, he directly pinned Rephya against the wall.

"Xiaolu, have you turned naughty?"

"I, I, I haven't!"

"Don't lie to me, I understand Holy Bone better than you, the rooftop was isolated with sound-absorbing plants, you couldn't have heard.

So... Xiaolu, were you eavesdropping when we were still in the private room?"

"..."

Uh-oh, caught.

Chloe saw Rephya's expression, unable to hide anything, instantly realizing he was right.

"Holy Bone doesn't have super hearing, the auditory enhancement isn't significant, I was very restrained and nearly silent.

Were you next to us, Xiaolu?

And to hear clearly, you even used Divine Power I taught you to eavesdrop?"

"Wuwuwu."

He's so perceptive.

Seeing Chloe almost solving the riddle, Rephya panicked:

"Senior, you're too lewd! This is a public place, how can you do such things?"

"Bad things! Senior, your mind is filled with those kind of thoughts!"

"Wuwuwu, my brain feels dirty now..."

With a thud.

Chloe came closer to Rephya.

"Xiaolu…"

"Ahh…!"

"What identity are you using to judge my private life?"

"I, I, I, I..."

"You're so anxious, I thought…" Chloe squinted and pressed closer, "Thought maybe you have some ideas."

Rephya froze in place.

In the next moment, she pushed Chloe away:

"Senior, you big fool!"

Watching the tearful Rephya run away, Chloe felt a bit of a headache.

How did things end up like this?
