You wouldn't want them to be bullied, would you?

"Sakura, what's wrong with you?"

Encouraged by Sirin and Maria, Qiu Bi bought two bottles of cold drinks, then walked over to the absent-minded Yae Sakura and pressed one of the bottles against her face.

Feeling the cool sensation on her cheek, Yae Sakura instinctively let out a soft moan, then awkwardly moved away from the cold drink.

"Qiu Bi, w-what's wrong?"

Upon recognizing Qiu Bi as the visitor, Yae Sakura's cheeks flushed slightly as she recalled the information she had just searched.

—Information about “deep communication” between men and women.

"You've seemed distracted since earlier. Is something bothering you?"

"No……"

Yae Sakura took the cold drink Qiu Bi handed her, and then whispered, "In fact, I'm genuinely happy for Karen as she has a new life."

"Then why do you look so distracted? Do you want to see Karen?"

"No, it's not because of that—I'm content as long as I know that Kallen has been successfully resurrected."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Bi seemed to have guessed something.

"Sakura, are you missing Rin?"

"……Um."

Yae Sakura held the cold drink in both hands, her head lowered, her blue eyes fixed on the drink between her hands.

Qiu Bi unscrewed the cold drink in his hand, took a refreshing sip, and then continued, "You can rest assured, I keep my word—I said before that I would help you revive Yae Rin, and I will definitely help you revive Yae Rin."

"...Isn't any ceremony required?"

In Yae Sakura's mind, things like sacrifices and prayers often require grand ceremonies. Although "reviving Yae Rin" is not a sacrifice or prayer, it should be something similar.

Qiu Bi originally wanted to say directly that there was no need for a ceremony, but after seeing Yae Sakura's absent-minded appearance, he immediately swallowed back the words that were about to come out.

“Of course a ‘ritual’ is needed—Yae Sakura, you should be happier. Rin probably doesn’t want to see you like this.”

however.

Having recently researched information about "deep communication" between men and women, Yae Sakura misunderstood Qiu Bi's meaning.

Chapter 178 Sirin Wants More Mothers

Yae Sakura instinctively gripped her cold drink, her heart suddenly filled with tension, and she couldn't help but associate Qiu Bi's "ritual" with "deep communication" between men and women.

"Tonight?"

"If you're mentally prepared, you can revive Rin tonight."

Qiu Bi was referring to the proper resurrection of Yae Rin, but when it reached Yae Sakura's ears, it became "the ritual before the resurrection will be held tonight," instantly making Yae Sakura's cheeks flush red.

Although she already knew about those things between men and women, Yae Sakura was not mentally prepared.

In Yae Sakura's ancient understanding and beliefs, those things should only be done by husband and wife.

Before reviving Yae Rin, she and Qiu Bi need to engage in "marital relations," which makes it difficult for Yae Sakura to be fully prepared psychologically in a short period of time.

"Qiu Bi, don't worry—I'll come to see you tonight."

Yae Sakura spoke softly, keeping her head bowed the entire time.

Qiu Bi sensed that Yae Sakura's mood was a little off, but he didn't think much of it and smiled as he advised, "Sakura, you don't need to be so nervous. Reviving Rin is very easy. It will only take a few seconds for Rin to be revived."

Was Qiu Bi really that "fast"?

No, I can't look down on or laugh at Qiu Bi!

Yae Sakura's thoughts wandered to a strange place, and she felt her cheeks burning hotter and hotter, making her even more afraid to look Qiu Bi in the eye.

"So... Sakura, we're out having fun now, you should be happier."

Qiu Bi tentatively grasped Yae Sakura's soft hand, and seeing that Yae Sakura did not show any resistance or reluctance, he became much bolder.

Seeing Qiu Bi and Yae Sakura successfully hold hands, Xilin, who was secretly watching, couldn't help but reveal a joyful smile.

"Great! Celine can have a new mom again!"

"..."

Seeing Celine's joyful expression, Maria was completely baffled, unable to understand why Celine was so enthusiastic about being a "new mother."

"Cilin, you seem to have quite a few mothers, don't you?"

“Let Sirin think about it… Mom, Alexandra Mom, Cecilia Mom, Hilfalia Mom, that’s only four moms. Bella is related to Dad, but she’s his sister, not a mom.”

As Celine pondered, she uttered each name, a hint of distress creeping into her expression.

It wasn't that she thought there were too many mothers; on the contrary, Celine even felt that there were too few.

If the mother doesn't have many children, how can she have more adorable little sisters?

As for the younger brother...

Sirin can turn her younger brother into a magical girl, so he can still be a cute "little sister".

"Five is not too few."

"That's still too few! Celine hasn't had a new little sister in ages, it's all been big sisters lately!"

Although Celine also loves her older sister very much, she can't compare to her younger sister.

Maria was speechless and ultimately chose to give up trying to persuade Celine and instead went to find Angeline.

Celine followed Maria closely, while secretly pondering how to facilitate the birth of her new sister.

Celine is no longer an ignorant child; she naturally knows how a baby is born and how to facilitate that process.

As Celine pondered, she suddenly looked at Maria in front of her and a bold idea came to her.

Rather than...

How can Aunt Maria become a mother too?

This idea, like a weed, quickly took hold of Sirin's mind.

Perhaps sensing something, Maria suddenly turned around and looked at Sirin.

"Cirin, why are you staring at me like that?"

"N-nothing, it's nothing, Mom Maria... oops, Aunt Maria, let's hurry and go find Sister Angelin!"

"Wait—what did you just call me? Mom?"

Maria's voice involuntarily rose several octaves, her face filled with disbelief.

Celine guiltily looked away, not daring to meet Maria's eyes.

"Hmm... Aunt Maria must have misheard. Sirin never intended for Aunt Maria to become her mother."

"..."

Maria stared at Celine, remaining silent.

After a while, she looked away and said lightly, "I'll talk to Cecilia about your upbringing—don't always think about having someone else be your mother!"

"I'm sorry... Sirin knows she was wrong..."

Maria did not respond to Celine, so Celine dared not say anything more and obediently walked behind Maria.

Meanwhile, Qiu Bi and Yae Sakura returned to the team, and after a brief discussion, they decided to go ride the giant swing.

Everyone tacitly kept their distance from Qiu Bi, Yae Sakura, and Shigure Kira, giving the three of them space to be alone.

Xilin wanted to get close to Qiu Bi, but Angeline gently tapped her head and pulled her away to another place.

Qiu Bi did not let go of Yae Sakura's soft hand, and Yae Sakura let Qiu Bi hold her hand, her mind filled with thoughts of what was about to happen that night.

Shigure Kira seemed to have sensed something amiss, her azure eyes scanning back and forth between Qiu Bi and Yae Sakura, vaguely sensing that something might happen between the two.

……

That night.

Everything was silent.

Shi Yu Qiluo tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

As soon as she closes her eyes, the scene of Qiu Bi and Yae Sakura holding hands appears in her mind.

"No! I must take advantage of the fact that Qiu Bi is alone and forcefully reveal my true feelings!"

Shiyu Qiluo's eyes were firm. She quickly dressed and then quietly left the room.

The corridor was quiet and still, with only the moonlight shining down, leaving a bright glow on the ground.

Using the bright moonlight, Shiyu Qiluo tiptoed toward Qiu Bi's room.

Then, before Shigure Kira even arrived, she saw Yae Sakura standing hesitantly at the door of Qiu Bi's room.

Shiyu Kira was stunned for a moment, and at the same time became certain of her previous guess.

Qiu Bi and Yae Sakura will definitely have something to do that no one knows about!

The next second, Shigure Kira saw Yae Sakura take several deep breaths, seemingly trying to calm her emotions, before reaching out and knocking on Qiu Bi's door.

Shiyu Kira held her breath and waited until Yae Sakura entered Qiu Bi's room before quickly walking to the door of Qiu Bi's room with light and silent steps.

At this moment, Qiu Bi and Yae Sakura were talking inside the room, which caused Shigure Kira to subconsciously move closer to the door and begin to eavesdrop on their conversation.

"...Qiu Bi, I won't mind that you're 'fast'."

"Huh? What did you say?"

"W-you mustn't misunderstand. I didn't mean to look down on you or laugh at you at all. It's just... oh my god?! Why, why so suddenly..."

“Sakura, wasn’t this something you asked for? You even used reverse psychology on purpose…”

"Qiu Bi, don't, don't touch...her breasts..."

"Wait—please don't...don't be so rough..."

gradually.

Yae Sakura's words tended to be vague murmurs, seemingly a lament yet also a sound of enjoyment, with the latter taking up far more weight than the former.
