Of course, Nygglatho didn't end up preying on Zhong Chen. After the few of them got to know each other, they each returned to their own rooms.
Only Nygglatho brought red wine to Chtholly's room.
"It's rare to see you drink something other than black tea."
William looked at Nygglatho, who was sitting by the window, holding a glass of red wine and looking at the moon, with a surprised expression.
Nygglatho didn't turn her head, but said directly:
"It's so good that you're here. I don't want to cry alone anymore."
Upon hearing this, William also looked at the moon outside the window and said,
"In the past, whenever I encountered other people's tragedies or misfortunes, no matter how helpless they were, I always wanted to do something."
"However, my power was ultimately too insignificant, and as a result, I couldn't help at all."
"Even though I had experienced this before..."
At this point, William picked up his red wine glass and took a sip.
"Oh my, you two are drinking red wine under the moonlight here, how leisurely. Can I join you?"
Just as William was about to say something more, Zhong Chen's hearty voice reached their ears.
"Sir Zhong Chen!"
"Administrator Zhong Chen, didn't you just leave Chtholly's side?"
Nygglatho looked at Zhong Chen, who had run over again, with a face full of black lines.
"Hehe, I just arrived here and couldn't sleep, you two continue chatting, don't mind me."
Zhong Chen chuckled when he heard Nygglatho's words.
Then, making himself at home, he dragged a chair over and squeezed William to the side of Chtholly's bed.
William, who had been squeezed away, could only shake his head helplessly, glanced at Chtholly on the bed, and continued to speak:
"Even so, I still want Chtholly to be happy. She really... what's so good about a man like me?"
Hearing this, Zhong Chen subtly glanced at Chtholly on the bed and said directly,
"Young man, love is unreasonable, and as for the reason, I think the person involved should tell you herself."
"Am I right, my dear little girl?"
Hearing Zhong Chen's words, William and Nygglatho hurriedly looked towards the bed.
They saw Chtholly looking at the three of them with a gentle smile.
"Don't you understand this? Because you let me experience so many firsts."
"You were the first to offer me a helping hand on the open street."
"The first to take me to admire beautiful scenery."
"The first to let me feel the ways of the world."
"You are the first person I could rely on."
"And the first person to make me admit defeat."
"There are already too many to count."
"So, isn't it natural that I fell in love with you first?"
"You should realize this yourself, you idiot..."
Seeing the awakened Chtholly, Nygglatho covered her mouth, her eyes welling up with tears.
William stood up quietly, looking at Chtholly as she spoke.
As Chtholly slowly sat up, she looked at Zhong Chen and the other two and asked softly,
"What happened to me? After returning to the warehouse, I had a strange dream, and you didn't come back for a long time."
Noticing the tears in William's eyes, she asked with a worried expression,
"What's wrong? Why that expression?"
Hearing Chtholly's question, Zhong Chen saw William still standing silently, kicked him in the butt, directly sending William onto the bed.
Chtholly, seeing this, anxiously caught William as he fell towards her.
Nygglatho, seeing this scene, still had tears on her face, but a smile appeared.
"Oh my, Administrator Zhong Chen is very good at reading the atmosphere."
"Of course!"
Hearing Nygglatho's words, Zhong Chen raised an eyebrow at her, a proud expression on his face.
At this moment, the two on the bed were embracing due to Zhong Chen. William held Chtholly tightly and whispered in her ear,
"Welcome back, Chtholly."
Tears also gradually appeared in Chtholly's eyes upon hearing this. She likewise whispered back in William's ear,
"I'm back, William... Waaahhhhhh!!!"
After saying that, she burst into tears.
Seeing this scene, Zhong Chen silently pulled out his camera and aimed it at the two embracing and crying.
Click... A shutter sound flashed, and Zhong Chen looked at the photo in his camera, nodding with satisfaction.
And just as Zhong Chen was admiring his photo, the door was opened at some point.
Nephren and Ithea also looked at the two embracing with shocked expressions.
Nephren even said directly,
"A miracle of love?"
Ithea heard this and looked at the crying Chtholly, continuing,
"Regardless of whether it's because of love, this miracle is unquestionable. Anyway, with her personality, she would definitely disregard everything."
"No matter the cost, she would spare no effort."
Hearing their words, Zhong Chen turned his head to look at them and said,
"Cost, huh... Hehe, I hate tragedies the most."
Listening to Zhong Chen's incomprehensible words, the others only took it as him talking to himself and didn't pay attention.
"Alright, let's all go, let's not disturb the two of them."
Nygglatho couldn't help but say when she saw so many people suddenly in the room.
"Fine, I've already got what I wanted anyway."
After Zhong Chen finished speaking, he took the lead and left the room. The others also followed him out.
Time flowed by as the two in the room embraced... The next day.
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
"Tsk tsk tsk... William, why is your swordsmanship like coaxing a child?"
Zhong Chen looked at William, who was teaching swordsmanship to a pink-haired loli under ten years old, and couldn't help but tease him.
William heard this and looked helplessly at Zhong Chen, who was lying down drinking juice.
"Hey, hey, hey, isn't she just a child?"
Hearing William's words, Zhong Chen's face showed a mischievous smile. He gestured with his lips towards William, indicating for him to look ahead.
They saw the loli fighting William with an angry expression, shouting loudly at William,
"Hmph, I'm not a child anymore, you annoying person, take this!"
"You fellow!!!"
William, realizing he had been tricked by Zhong Chen, looked at Zhong Chen with an angry expression.
Meanwhile, on the second floor, Chtholly was standing by the window, watching the people playing below.
A cold wind blew, and Chtholly, wearing her pajamas, couldn't help but hug herself.
"So cold."
After saying that, she closed the window and went to the mirror, intending to wash up.
She suddenly noticed a strand of red hair at the tips of her blue hair.
Chtholly looked at this, confused, and reached out to touch the red strand of hair.
Just as she was about to take a closer look, Nygglatho's voice came from outside the door:
"Chtholly, are you awake?"
Hearing her voice, Chtholly hurriedly replied,
"I'm awake, I'll be right down."
Saying that, she began to change her clothes. Finally, she glanced at the red strand and picked up a witch's hat nearby, placing it on her head.
As she did all of this, no one noticed the meaningful smile on Zhong Chen's lips outside...
