After settling in, Miao Xin’s eyes darted around before finally fixing on Lin Guang, and she eagerly opened her mouth:
"Champion brother, you’re amazing! Can you sign for ? I want to show it off to my classmates!" Miao Xin was not shy at all, confidently taking out a small notebook and pen and handing them to Lin Guang.
"..."
Looking at Miao Xin, Lin Guang was slightly taken aback.
—Her eyebrows and eyes were sowhat similar to Miaomiao’s, indeed showing traces of their kinship.
But...
The Heart of Terra did not react, and the Eye of Omniscience and Omnipotence could also see it.
Unlike her sister beside her, Miaomiao, this girl nad Miao Xin showed no traces of any Terra being, but was a pure Great Xia person.
Lin Guang always knew that Miaomiao had a family.
But... even though he knew, it was hard to figure out what situation her current family was really in.
After pausing for a mont, Lin Guang didn’t delve into it, but smiled as he took the pen and gladly signed his na.
After receiving the autograph, Miao Xin treasured it like a precious treasure, but her mischievous eyes were clearly not satisfied.
She suddenly tugged on Miaomiao’s sleeve and, after her sister leaned in, asked in a supposedly low voice, which was actually audible to the whole room:
"Sister, when are you going to date Lin Guang brother? That way, I can show off to my classmates!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the previously cheerful atmosphere in the living room beca a bit delicate.
Vishdair, who was lounging on the couch playing with her phone, curled her mouth slightly, muttering softly but ultimately not erupting.
She knew well that Lin Guang and herself, as well as Lisa recovering from the Ore Disease, could not be said to have nothing to do with Miaomiao’s efforts.
Beside her, Chelina just made her ears move almost imperceptibly, her amber eyes calm and unperturbed as if she’d heard nothing, while Lisa, sitting next to Lin Guang, blushed slightly, sneaking a glance at him.
"What silly things are you thinking about every day with that little head of yours!"
Miaomiao’s face seed to flush a bit as she rolled her eyes at her sister without any real annoyance, playfully flicking Miao Xin’s smooth forehead with her finger, wisely steering away from this topic.
Yet at this mont.
As if to dissolve the awkwardness, the doorbell rang again.
Lin Guang, relieved, went to open the door, revealing a smile.
"Teacher."
—It was Kaelis.
During their occasional monts alone over this period, Kaelis already showed the additional ears and tail belonging to her from the Terra Felis race [cat].
Her true hair color was silver, but unlike Vishdair’s pure silver hair, it had a slightly gray-green tint. The cat-like ears atop her head, resembling lynx ears, had tufts of fur from the tips blending into silver-green, her tail was relatively short, matching her hair color.
Compared to her past deanor, this appearance made Lin Guang feel a bit closer.
However, in front of others today, she still used a Spiritual Artifact or skill to maintain her human appearance with black hair.
Yet, she had finally refrained from wearing that iconic white lab coat, changing into a well-fitting casual outfit instead.
A cal-hair sweater of excellent texture, paired with a pair of dark, tailored long pants, perfectly outlined her stunning figure, particularly her straight, slender legs, her hair twisted into a bun at the back of her head.
Kaelis remained with that cool and indifferent look, exuding a powerful aura even if she was just standing casually, but looking at Lin Guang, her green eyes carried a softness not easily noticed.
"Happy Birthday."
She handed over a simply packaged gift box, her voice calm, and then brought out a large box, placing it on the table.
Lin Guang was not in the habit of using his Spiritual Power to survey around in daily life, as that would reduce many surprises.
But the size, shape, and weight of this box were clearly...
He froze for a mont, "A cake?"
"Thank you, teacher!"
Kaelis’s arrival obviously made the ho atmosphere shift a little, but it was subtly.
But...
It wasn’t moving toward a negative direction.
Everyone here, aside from Miao Xin, was actually quite familiar with each other.
Gathered together with Lin Guang as the bond, their interactions did not feel awkward.
Later, they all reclined on the giant white couch in the living room, gathering around the enormous TV to play a newly released motion-sensing racing ga.
The sounds of the ga roared to life as Lisa, Vishdair, Miaomiao, and Miao Xin eagerly picked up controllers.
Chelina went to start preparing ingredients for the al.
And Kaiwen did not join the ga either, or rather, no one could imagine what she would look like playing gas in their minds. She simply sat elegantly on a single sofa in the corner of the living room, opening her laptop she had brought along.
She seed to always have endless data and reports to work on.
As if there was no end.
But...
While she was typing, a cup of coffee was handed over to her from beside.
It was Lin Guang.
Kaelis looked down at the liquid, darker than the coffee she usually drank, emitting a charming aroma of coffee mixed with milk and a little sweetness, not overly rich but just right.
Lin Guang looked at her calmly, "My special Cappuccino."
"No Arican today; every ti I see it, it feels sour and bitter, and you usually drink it with unknown multiple extra shots."
"Sotis you should relax a bit."
"This is what you taught ."
Kaelis paused for a mont, took the coffee, and sipped it lightly.
She closed her eyes, then slowly opened them.
Even for her, the corners of her typically cool and distant lips couldn’t help but curl slightly.
