Tonight at the Divination Commission was no different from usual. A serene breeze whispered through, rustling the leaves softly.

After Bochang and his team cleansed the malevolent spirits from Stellaron,

the area had regained its tranquility once more.

The diviners of the Divination Commission could finally enjoy a peaceful night's sleep.

Originally, Bochang could have slept as well.

However...

Due to a steady stream of guests arriving one after another, his room remained bustling, leaving him with no chance to rest.

As Bochang spotted a delicate light purple dragon horn peeking through the doorway first...

he instantly recognized who it was.

Bailu's distinctive draconic features made her unmistakable.

In the next moment, the crisp voice of the little dragon girl rang out.

"Bochang? It's so late, why aren't you asleep yet..." As Bailu entered the room, she noticed Bochang with his upper body bare, revealing his robust physique under the soft light—a sight exuding masculinity. She couldn't help but add, "Nice figure."

The dragon girl inspected him from top to bottom, her gaze displaying a professional air.

As a physician of the Alchemy Commission, Bailu had seen many diverse physiques, but few could match Bochang's impressive build. Indeed, he lived up to being someone she had personally chosen.

After a moment of thought, Bochang replied, "Well... I was just about to undress and go to bed... Bailu, what brings you here? It's already 1 AM, shouldn't you be sleeping?"

"You won't grow tall if you don't sleep at proper times," Bochang inadvertently blurted out.

However...

Immediately after speaking, Bochang regretted it.

As expected... A hint of displeasure flashed across Bailu's slightly round face. She placed her hands on her hips and declared, "Bochang, I'm not that little anymore. Please don't treat me like a kid all the time."

"And... it's not that I don't want to sleep early, but I simply can't fall asleep, so..." Bailu gently sighed.

The events of today were truly extraordinary.

They made Bailu feel like a wandering swordswoman adventuring through the world, leaving her exceptionally excited and unable to drift off easily.

March 7th, hidden beneath the bed, noticed the newcomer was the young dragon girl.

Her initially racing heart slowly calmed down.

"Should I come out now? No... If Bailu finds me hiding under Bochang's bed late at night, there's a high chance she'll tell Stelle tomorrow..."

March 7th wasn't quite sure why this concerned her, but regardless...

She had no intention of letting Stelle know about her private moments with Bochang.

It was quite natural.

Similarly, Stelle intended to conceal her plan of sleeping with Bochang from both March 7th and Serval.

As a result...

One hid inside a trash bin,

while the other concealed beneath the bed.

The reason for this... No sound emerged from the trash bin where Stelle was hiding within Miyu's room.

Bochang found it peculiar too.

After all...

During their photo session, March 7th engaged in some unconventional acts, especially when they stripped down to take close-up shots.

Yet, just moments ago, despite March 7th showing no intention of leaving, Stelle remained completely unresponsive.

Even if she didn't want to be discovered, she could have at least messaged Bochang discreetly.

Thus...

Bochang formed an incredibly bold hypothesis - "Could it be that Stelle fell asleep while I was photographing with March 7th?"

This theory also explained why Stelle showed absolutely no reaction during certain actions taken by March 7th.

Stelle showed no reaction whatsoever.

"But...can one really fall asleep while crouching inside a trash bin?" Bochang wondered.

Of course...

All this remained just Bochang's speculation; perhaps Stelle genuinely played the role of a ninja for a bit.

It was possible.

Bailu suggested, "Bochang, since you're not sleeping anyway, why don't you keep me company and play for a while?"

"Play? What kind of game?" Bochang questioned back.

Bailu stroked her chin thoughtfully.

"Hmm... let me think."

Just then...

Bochang's phone beeped. While Bailu was still pondering, he took out his phone to check.

The message was from the pink-haired girl hiding under the bed, indicating she might be getting anxious.

March 7th: Bochang, what are you doing?! Are you seriously planning to play with kids now? Can't...you figure out what you should be focusing on instead?

What should Bochang do?

Bochang knew exactly what he needed to accomplish.

Naturally, it was to get both March 7th and Bailu out of here.

However...

Given the current situation, it seemed quite challenging.

March 7th had already made it clear she wasn't leaving voluntarily.

It appeared that force might be necessary, or perhaps finding another way to convince the pink-haired girl to leave willingly.

As for what method could make her agreeably depart, Bochang hadn't figured that out yet. So, he typed back: "Don't worry, just watch my moves."

March 7th: ???

The pink-haired girl hiding beneath the bed felt increasingly frustrated.

Had March 7th known it was a young dragon visiting, she wouldn't have hidden at all. It would've been better to come up with some excuse on the spot.

But now, it was too late.

If March 7th were to emerge from under the bed at this moment,

it likely wouldn't be easily dismissed with a simple explanation.

While Bailu might be more gullible,

However...

This dragon maiden wasn't foolish at all.

"Bailu," she said, "I've recently developed a new massage technique. Would you like to try it? Hmm...you might not be aware, but my massage skills...are unparalleled on Luofu Immortal Continent. Seeing how hardworking you've been today, I thought...what do you say?"

"This doesn't seem like playing along with your game; rather, it would inconvenience you."

Bochang scratched his head, feeling unsure.

Bailu spread her hands and replied, "Allowing me to practice my newly researched massage techniques on you will benefit both of us. While you enjoy the massage, I gain valuable experience—it's a win-win situation. There's no question of inconvenience here."

[Dating Options activated.]

[Option 1: Accept Bailu's offer and let her give you a massage, saying: "If that's the case...it sounds fine." - Completion Reward: Obtain a random item, ranging from a matchstick to a star destroyer. Note: Such items will...]

[Option Two: Decline Bailu's offer, suggesting she rest instead, by saying: "No, I'm going to sleep now, Bailu. You should also get some rest... We can do the massage tomorrow." - Completion Reward: Obtain a random item, ranging from a matchstick to a star destroyer. Note: Such items will...]

Two distinctly different options, yet offering the exact same reward.

"Does this imply that regardless of my choice, the ultimate outcome will be the same?" Uncertain, Bochang hesitated for a moment before making his decision, "Option One."

"Well then... alright."

Bochang nodded in agreement.

After all, he couldn't immediately think of a way to make March 7th leave.

For now, it might be best to maintain a temporary standoff.

This could prevent March 7th from escalating her actions further.

If Stelle wasn't actually asleep and was just enduring quietly, suddenly jumping up later would indeed be frightening.

Bochang dared not rely solely on the "Dating Options" feature.

What if no options suddenly appear this time?

It wasn't entirely impossible.
