System brought back good news about Alisa and Ailstar.

❰ Good job, Host. You acc.u.mulated 4000p from hidden quests.❱

❝Thanks for the praise! We are going to celebrate at home! A farewell party!❞

❰ A farewell party?❱

❝After the Masquerade ball, we are leaving this world. Our party is going to be me and you playing games until late, huhu.❞

❰ Is that still considered a party?❱

❝No, but who cares? Not me~.❞

❰ Are you trying to be funny?❱

❝If I don't make myself laugh, who will?❞

On her way home, Olivia looked out of the window of the car, feeling nostalgic.

░It's been more than a year. I'm getting older. Would he still love me when I become a granny?░

*flashback*

Watching a movie in their living room, Mr. Jelly called out her name seriously, "Bing Shi,"

"Hm?" Bing Shi responded unenthusiastically; her eyes were concentrated on the TV. They were watching a comedy, but the atmosphere wasn't entertaining at all.

"You became older," he said solemnly, his cold gaze stared at the pillow in her hands.

"Who.Became.Older?" asked Bing Shi in a threatening tone, raising her pillow like a weapon. She turned away from the TV and looked at him, indicating with her gaze if he dared to repeat himself.

"My Bing Shi, of course!" he said and nodded his head fearlessly, crossing his arms in stubbornness.

"Pack your suitcase. You are sleeping outside for a week."

░Who is older? Your whole family is older! Go away, you brat!░

"Nooo~," he called out, turning around on the sofa, facing her face to face. "It shouldn't go like this. You should be crying and saying that you are still young while kicking and punching my body." He pointed at his face, asking for a beating. Making hints for her that she should be true to herself.

"I'm still young! How can you say such a hurtful thing to a young woman? Take it back!" she started arguing. Why should she cry because of her age? She was young! Still no wrinkles! He should take it back immediately!

"Then I'll be like," he started seriously, his voice deepening, "Don't worry, I'm into older women," he continued, "And then, you would cry from happiness!" he finished playfully.

"... It's just a two-year difference..."

░It's just two years! He is making it seem like it's a whole generation!░

He crossed his arms, refusing to back down, "Still older than me."

"Do you mind it?"

░Men usually like younger ones...░

"Of course I don't mind. I'm into older women anyway." He caressed her head lovingly, saying with a grin, "No, not women. I'm into an older woman."

"Y-you! No way...How did it end up as you wanted?" she asked, confused, her brows furrowed.

"You never won an argument with me, remember? You only have power over me in bed. And it's still because I let you have that power," he stood up and ran to the bedroom with laughter.

"You! Come here!" She couldn't help but laugh out loud. Throwing a pillow at his direction, she chased after him. He was right. She never won an argument with him! Shocking right?

"Come, my Ice Queen," he made fun of her old nickname. Lying in their bed, he patted the place next to him and looked at her with a grin. "It's getting late. You should have your beauty sleep, to prevent...aging."

"Y-you...Hahah!" She should be angry at him but she couldn't. Lying helplessly next to him, she made herself comfortable.

He covered them with a blanket, hugging her waist from behind, he started to grope her chest.

Bing Shi went silent, her mouth cracked. "Was this part of your plan? To get into my panties?" she asked with a raised eyebrow.

Hearing her genuine laughter, he suddenly felt better, accomplished. "I just wanted to make you laugh...You were too stressed over work," he answered with worry.

"Mm...I laughed a lot. Happy?" she smiled with satisfaction, and let him continue doing his magic on her chest.

"Mm, very happy...Going into your panties should be after making you laugh," he mumbled to himself and chuckled shamelessly.

"You!" Giggling, she raised her white flag as a giving up sign. She didn't like to argue, letting him do whatever he wanted.

He makes her happy she wants to make him happy too.

*End of flashback*

"Miss Olivia, we arrived."

Olivia chuckled to herself, "Oh, thank you." She stepped out of a car with a bright smile, "Bye-bye."

'Was she always in such a good mood?' The Chauffeur thought to himself. He couldn't remember, she always seemed happy. Maybe he was seeing things.

❝Nobody is at home? Great! System change into a snake, can you eat?❞ Asked Olivia while she was putting down her jacket and shoes.

❰ I can consume meals. But I can't taste them.❱

Olivia picked up the white snake and put it on her shoulder. She looked at the mirror in the hallway. Ignoring her own reflection, her gaze was fixed on the snake.

❝That's sad! System you look great as a snake, should I give you a name?❞

❰ Yes, please!❱

The system could finally have its name! She had to be in a good mood!

❝Oh, you finally learned some manners. Then what about, Kuro?❞

❰ I learned from you. Host, I'm white, shouldn't I be called Shiro?❱

The white snake on her shoulder gave her a confused expression. (A/N. Kuro = black, Shiro = white)

❝Nice to meet you, Kuro.❞ She disregarded its protest. Olivia grinned and patted its head.

❰...❱

A maid shrieked loudly, "Kyaaaaa~ Miss Olivia, what's that thing on your shoulder!?"

❝Oh, so we were not alone. It seems like no party for us, Kuro.❞

"Did it startle you? Say hi to Kuro, my new pet, it's not poisonous. Don't worry," Olivia picked up Kuro from her shoulders and showed it off to the maid.

"Eh...H...Hi! Excuse me!" The maid instantly backed away, she still had cleaning to do. When she ran away, she uttered to herself, 'Those rich people have such strange hobbies! A snake as a pet? Why not a cat?'

❝Seems like you scarred her, haha! See, a snake is more powerful than a cat. And they eat mice and rats!❞

❰ Host are you scared of mice and rats?❱

❝I hate them! I have goosebumps whenever I see one. When I was living alone during my university days, a big rat got into the flat because I forgot to close the door! Lucky me, there was no robbery. But it was so disgusting. Since then, I check my door many times. This is a secret, never tell it to my boyfriend. He would go crazy. He always reminds me to check the door and bring pepper spray with me.❞

❝I was a girl living alone in a big city in a foreign country. It's understandable for him to worry.❞

❰ You are in a good mood, Host. This is the first time you talked about yourself. How did you chase the rat away?❱

❝I had no man to protect me, so I had to overcome my fear and chased it away with a broom! See, I have goosebumps just thinking about it,❞ she pointed at her arms, showing off her goosebumps.

❰ Cool!❱

❝Right?❞ She grinned. There was a vibration coming out of her bag. Confused, she pulled out her smartphone. A message from an unknown number?

::: Olivia, I know, the 2 years period didn't end yet. But you didn't say I have to listen to you. So I want to take this chance to ask you. Would you like to accompany me to the Masquerade ball? Viktor E. :::

Olivia furrowed her brows.

░How did he get through? Didn't I block his number? Is he a hidden hacker?░

❝Kuro, who is he?❞

❰ Victor Egerton. 17 years old, the eldest son of the Egerton family. His father is a high ranked politician. Due to his safety, he is a student at your school under a false identity. He wasn't part of the story. There is not much information about him. Why are you asking about him only now? Should I monitor him?❱

❝Oh, so he has some resources. Not bad for Olivia's fiance. Don't monitor him, just watch for any danger around me. I'm not a stalker, why should I monitor a random boy?❞

❰ Why? He could be your boyfriend. Didn't you always want to meet him in those worlds?❱

❝No way. It's not him.❞

❰ How can you be so sure?❱

❝He disrespected my decision of not talking to each other for two years. Easy as that.❞

❰ What about his soul? He could have lost his memories.❱

❝You mean a soulmate? Not interested.❞

Her good mood disappeared.

❰ I don't understand you.❱

❝I'm just a normal girl. My love is not big enough to love his soul.❞

❰ You are strange.❱

❝Well, let's say I can't accept his soul with different memories because it will be someone else, not him, not my Xuan Mu. It sounds stupid, doesn't it?❞

❰ Is that his name?❱

❝Mm...❞

She skipped dinner again. Her family started to worry. She didn't care; she was leaving soon. She wholly ignored Viktor's message, let original Olivia take care of him, she thought.

In the bed, she was covered in a thick blanket, feeling cold, feeling afraid of falling asleep. Dreaming was so good that she never wanted to wake up. The brutal reality after waking up hit her hard every day. In the pitch-black dark room, she kept herself awake, thinking about everything and nothing in particular.

*flashback*

Xuan Mu was coming back from his business trip! Should she do a welcome party? Bing Shi turned all the lights off, running inside their bedroom, she waited for him impatiently.

When Xuan Mu arrived at home, he was welcomed by silence. All the lamps were switched off except a light coming out of the aquarium in the wall, which had a small shark swimming inside. He chuckled to himself, remembering how they argued about getting a shark in their house. Bing Shi was against it, saying how he wouldn't be able to take care of it and how it would die on them! It was easy to persuade her. Now, they had a massive aquarium with a tiny shark inside.

He put down his things and slowly walked towards the bedroom. Was she asleep? The bedroom was dimly lit by the moon outside. On the bed, there was Bing Shi, looking at him creepily, making him jump in fright. "Gods! I almost got a heart attack!" he said angrily.

"Haha, welcome home!" she laughed at him, peeking her head from under a blanket.

"I'm home. No jumping on me? And where is my welcome hug?" he stared at her with a pout.

"A welcome home party for the two of us! Happy?" Hiding under a blanket, she giggled to herself.

"Let us check if I am happy, were you cheating on me?" he started his questioning. Jumping on the bed playfully, he put his legs in a cross sit, "Did you talk to any man during my absence?"

"Of course not, I hate cheating. I talked only about business, no befriending!" she answered his questions.

"Good girl," he said proudly and caressed her head, "Don't befriend other men, they are bad," he continued, "What are you doing? Hiding under the blanket?" He crawled near her, wanting to pull the blanket away. They were facing each other, face to face.

"Fingering myself, want to taste?" she was preparing herself under the blanket the whole time. She pulled her wet fingers out and showed them into Xuan Mu's mouth, which was open agape, shocked by her dirty words.

He took her hand in his and sucked on her fingers like it was the most delicious thing in the world.

He started kissing her fingers, whispering, "Bing Shi never cheat on me. You know I can't kill you, but you also know how easy it is for me to kill myself."

"I know, don't hurt yourself," she unwrapped herself and hugged him by hooking her arms around his neck.

The moon fully manifested her n.a.k.e.d body, there were white stretch marks all over her body, her thighs, h.i.p.s, stomach, b.r.e.a.s.t, arms, they were everywhere.

When he remembered how she got them, his heart pained for her. "Bing Bing, always remember to eat properly," he whispered.

"Mm...And you don't hurt yourself," she agreed half-heartedly.

He hugged her back, avoiding her request with a chuckle, joking, "Those b.o.o.b.s, don't treat them poorly; they are mine too."

She bit his neck silently, the reason for her bite, only the two of them knew.
