"What happened?" It was rare to see Ya Qing so flustered. Elysia was curious about what Kallen had said to him.
"Aunt Kallen invited me to dinner tonight," Ya Qing said in a daze.
"Isn't that great?" Pardo was very confused. Isn't it great when someone invites you to dinner? If someone invited her to dinner, she would definitely go happily.
"But the problem is, Aunt Kallen told me to bring Mobius along, and Theresa already knows. It probably won't be long before it's out."
"Then..." Elysia pulled Ya Qing's shoulder. Her teasing smile had disappeared, and her eyes held a hint of seriousness. "Then what kind of feelings do you have for Mobius?"
"I don't know." Ya Qing shook his head.
"Ya Qing, it's not that you don't know, but that you're avoiding it," Elysia pointed out the flaw in Ya Qing's thinking.
"...You're right." Ya Qing didn't refute Elysia, perhaps because he himself felt that she was right.
Ya Qing had been avoiding it ten years ago. His sudden departure seven years ago was, on the surface, due to Overseer Otto recalling him, but in reality, it was because he didn't know how to face this feeling.
"I've never thought about loving someone, nor do I hope for someone to love me," Ya Qing said softly. "The life I want is to fulfill my dream, resign from all my duties, and travel the world alone."
"But Brother Ya Qing, everyone can see Sister Snake's feelings for you. Even if you don't accept them, you have to give her an answer, right?" Pardo said indignantly on behalf of Mobius.
"Huu, I know. I will go and give her an answer," Ya Qing took a deep breath.
Pardo was stunned.
"Wait, Ya Qing, you said you don't hope for someone to love you. Then do you yourself know what love is?" Elysia stopped Ya Qing.
"There are many kinds of love."
"Just like me, I love every one of you, but is this love the same as Kevin's love for MEI?" Elysia's eyes were very bright, as if a cluster of stars had gathered. Under her light, Ya Qing felt restless.
His phone rang. Ya Qing grabbed it like a drowning person grabbing the last straw. He stood up and left.
"Sister Elysia, Brother Ya Qing he..." The words reached her lips but were swallowed back. Pardo didn't know what to say.
Ya Qing, who had left the Golden Courtyard, sat alone in his car, looking at the contact displayed on his phone screen: Welt Yang. He had never been more grateful to Welt than at this moment.
"Mr. Welt, good afternoon."
"What do you want now?" Every time he talked to Ya Qing on the phone, Welt had to be on high alert.
"Mr. Welt, from your tone, I can hear that you have some misunderstandings about me." Ya Qing smiled. "I'm calling you today mainly to discuss with you the Honkai IP series' spin-off web series, Anti-Entropy: Origin."
"Hmm?" Welt Yang's interest was piqued. "Tell me in detail."
"It's too troublesome to explain. Mr. Welt, do you really need me to tell you the content of a nearly 20-episode web series over the phone?" Ya Qing said playfully.
"Then send me the script," Welt Yang said. "I'll finish reading the script tonight. If there are no problems, I'll give you a reply tomorrow. Alright, that's all. I still have a class to teach."
Welt hung up the phone.
Ya Qing looked at Welt, who had hung up in a hurry, a little dumbfounded. He didn't quite understand Welt's actions. As the vice-leader of Anti-Entropy, he was actually a history teacher in a girls' school under an enemy company. Fortunately, Ya Qing knew a little about Welt's character, otherwise he would definitely have thought that Welt had ill intentions.
"Heh." Ya Qing chuckled. Then he remembered the dinner party in the evening, and his smile instantly disappeared.
Driving to the World Serpent company, Ya Qing's mind was constantly replaying Elysia's words. He almost had a car accident. Fortunately, the car's emergency avoidance system saved Ya Qing from a crash.
He arrived at the World Serpent company building. Since he had been here before, Ya Qing got in easily. He took the elevator to the top floor and stood outside Mobius's office, his heart tangled. He didn't push the door open immediately.
"Ya Qing? What are you doing here? Wait..." In the corridor, MEI saw Ya Qing and asked with confusion.
"It's nothing." Ya Qing pushed the door open, only to find the office empty.
"I told you to wait. Mobius isn't in the office. She's in the lab," MEI leaned against the wall, looking helpless.
"Alright." Ya Qing spread his hands.
"At this time, shouldn't you be in the Golden Courtyard watching cartoons? Why did you suddenly come to World Serpent?" MEI was a little curious.
"What are you saying? What are you saying?" Ya Qing was dissatisfied. "I'm usually very hardworking too, just in places you can't see."
"Hehe," MEI asked, "Do you need me to take you there?"
"No need, I've been to the lab."
"Alright, alright," MEI said curiously, "What are you looking for Mobius for? Can you tell me?"
"It's nothing, just inviting her to dinner tonight."
MEI's eyes widened. She looked at Ya Qing in disbelief, even suspecting that someone had drugged him. How did he suddenly become so enlightened?
"You've thought it through?"
"Not really," Ya Qing said, walking side by side with MEI. "I once told Kevin that I was quite envious of him. Now I want to say, I'm still envious of him."
"Come on, you two have been envious of each other since your university days, right?" MEI covered her mouth and laughed. "Kevin used to tell me that he was very envious of you too."
"Envious of me? When did he go blind?"
"Hey."
"My bad, my bad. When did he become Su?"
"If you say that about Su, does he know?"
"Maybe he knows, maybe he doesn't."
In the midst of their banter, they had already arrived outside the lab. Ya Qing pushed the door open.
"That little brother, you're here again?!" Dan Zhu, who was slacking off, said.
"Yeah."
Ya Qing looked at the focused and serious Mobius, a dazed look in his eyes. He seemed to have returned to his campus life ten years ago.
"What are you doing here?" Mobius took off her surgical gloves.
"Are you free tonight?"
"Huh?" Mobius looked incredulous.
Under the playful gazes of Cang Xuan and Dan Zhu, Ya Qing took Mobius away. He planned to go back to the Golden Courtyard first. You can't go to a dinner party in a lab coat. Mobius wanted to go back and change her clothes and take a shower.
When Ya Qing returned to the Golden Courtyard, Mobius was showering upstairs. He and Elysia were sitting on the sofa.
"At the latest, tonight, I will give Mobius a response."
"Are you really sure?"
"Yeah."
It was time for Elysia's livestream. Mobius also came downstairs at this time. Ya Qing could clearly smell a faint fragrance.
