In Lu Ze's previous life's original work, Matilda's feelings for Li Ang were love.
Fiery, innocent love.
However, in this Illusion Realm, the emotional trajectory will vary slightly depending on the player's choices.
Suteir's strong feelings for the player might stem from affection, or admiration, or perhaps a longing for family... In short, everyone's experience is similar yet different... Zhong Yi's Illusion Realm world.
Suteir seed to enjoy teasing 'dense' people like Zhong Yi and reveled in it.
Zhong Yi could only ★ 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 ★ change the subject to defuse the awkwardness.
Dealing with girls truly gave him a headache.
Zhong Yi told Suteir about opera, catering to Li Ang's preferences.
Suteir had actually heard it many tis by his side and began to hum along.
"Li Ang, do you know what these lyrics and lody represent?"
Suteir looked at Zhong Yi with a mischievous smile.
"Wh- uh..."
Zhong Yi was montarily stunned, only then realizing that the song he had unwittingly chosen was about a woman's pursuit of love.
"Dong... dong, dong, dong... dong..."
Suteir rhythmically tapped the tabletop with the back of her finger, murmuring to herself.
"It represents, I love you."
"Cough, cough, cough!!!"
Zhong Yi coughed violently, quickly interrupting the conversation.
"Alright, Suteir, you can't say such things anymore..."
The girl pouted: "Okay, but you have to promise one thing."
Zhong Yi asked curiously: "What is it?"
"I hate seeing you sleep on the floor, Li Ang."
Suteir's expression was very serious, as if she was talking about sothing of utmost importance.
"I want you to sleep in the bed with ."
Hearing this request, Zhong Yi felt a wave of dizziness, his face flushing crimson.
"Uh, that's not really appropriate..."
...The girl spent a lot of effort, thoroughly convincing Zhong Yi.
In this segnt of the plot, Zhong Yi and Li Ang's thoughts were highly aligned, completely avoiding any backlash from the behavior System.
In fact, agreeing imdiately would have resulted in a deduction of points.
With Suteir's help, Zhong Yi lay stiffly on the bed, not daring to move a single finger.
"Yes, just like that, put your legs on the bed."
Suteir took off Zhong Yi's boots and slowly straightened his legs.
Zhong Yi nervously looked up, then was soothed by the girl's soft hands as he lay down.
"It's okay, Li Ang, relax, put your head down..."
After so fuss, Zhong Yi was finally 'placed' on the bed by Suteir like a doll.
The girl looked at her masterpiece with satisfaction, lifted one of Zhong Yi's arms, and naturally lay down next to him.
She pulled up the covers and extinguished the candlelight.
In the pitch-black night, the girl's clear voice echoed:
"Good night."
...The Illusion Realm world plunged into darkness.
When it lit up again, the Illusion Realm once again entered a movie plot segnt.
Li Ang woke up from his sleep in a panic, his first reaction being to reach for the dagger by his pillow.
For a top assassin who never closed his eyes during sleep and remained vigilant all night, falling into a dream was an absurd and terrifying thing.
Li Ang stubbornly claid he hadn't slept, but Suteir playfully teased him, saying he snored like a baby last night.
"I'll go buy you so goat's milk."
The girl stretched, then got up and out of bed.
"Don't forget our secret signal."
Li Ang reminded her, clutching his chest.
"Three short, one long, right?"
Suteir smiled, waved her hand, pushed open the door, and walked out.
At the sa ti, Zhong Yi finally regained control of the character.
The main quest in the upper right corner updated again.
"Main Quest Updated!"
"Main Quest: Wait for Suteir to return in bed."
Zhong Yi lay on the bed, adjusting his breathing.
He looked at his neatly dressed clothes and recalled Li Ang's posture when he woke up from his dream in the movie plot.
"Good, good, I didn't do anything beastly..."
Zhong Yi patted his chest with lingering fear.
Clearly, he and Suteir had rely slept together, nothing more had happened.
For Suteir, he felt she was more like family than a lover.
At least not yet.
"She should be back soon, right?"
Zhong Yi calculated the ti, muttering to himself.
He and Suteir had a secret knocking code: when returning ho, one had to knock in a specific rhythm to be let in.
Three long and one short ant safety, while three short and one long ant there was trouble.
This ti, Suteir had been out to buy goat's milk for longer than usual.
Just as Zhong Yi was wondering, a knock ca from outside the door.
"Dong, dong, dong... dong —"
Zhong Yi's heart imdiately sank.
Three short, one long.
Suteir was in danger!
He instantly sprang from the bed, grabbing the dagger from beside his pillow.
Just then, another rhythmic knocking sound ca.
"Dong... dong, dong, dong... dong..."
Zhong Yi's eyes imdiately reddened.
The girl's clear voice from last night seed to echo in his ears.
"Li Ang, do you know what these lyrics and lody represent?"
"It represents, I love you."
