Seele's Mind Space.
"Other me, you're back?"
As soon as Dark Seele returned, she was discovered by White Seele, who had been waiting all along.
"Mmh... I'm back."
Although her emotions were still complicated, hearing White Seele's voice again gradually calmed Dark Seele down.
But very quickly—
"Did you see Bronya-oneechan?"
Without any pause, White Seele's next sentence immediately stirred up the calmness Dark Seele had just regained.
"I saw her..."
Suppressing the turbulence in her heart, Dark Seele nodded in response.
" Is Bronya-oneechan okay?"
Pressing further, White Seele asked excitedly.
"She... is very well."
Recalling Bronya's disgraceful yet undoubtedly pleasurable expression, and the fact that although Luo Hong did all the talking, Bronya hadn't denied anything, Dark Seele could confirm that Bronya was living quite well.
"That's good..."
For now, White Seele's barrage of questions ceased.
Being in a state of excitement, she didn't notice anything strange about Dark Seele.
"Um..."
Pursing her lips, seeing that White Seele had stopped talking, Dark Seele suggested instead, "Do you want to go in and see for yourself?"
"Eh?"
Stunned, White Seele asked with a trembling voice, "Is... is that okay?"
She sounded like a devout believer facing a miracle—respectful to the point of humility.
"Of course it is."
Nodding, Dark Seele said, "Actually, I came back specifically to tell you to go in."
"Because of some circumstances earlier, we could only enter alternately."
She carefully sensed the 'body' Luo Hong had given her—
Now, with just a thought, she could separate from Seele's body and maintain her own independent existence.
Thinking of this, her feelings toward Luo Hong became complicated again, no longer purely disgusted like before.
Of course, she absolutely couldn't bring herself to like him either!
"So that's how it is..."
Looking relieved, White Seele said, "Being able to see Bronya-oneechan again is wonderful, of course, but how do I do it?"
"Also, what is going on with the world we are currently in?"
"If our consciousness leaves, what about our body here..."
Now that she could see Bronya again, she actually calmed down, prioritizing self-preservation.
Otherwise, if she could only see her one more time before losing everything, it would be meaningless!
"That guy Luo Hong said he would explain these things. Just follow my meditat—"
"You can't call him that, not Luo Hong-niichan~"
Before Dark Seele could finish, White Seele interrupted her gently.
"Luo Hong-niichan gave us the chance to see Bronya-oneechan again. Calling him that is a bit too rude."
"Ugh..."
Recalling Luo Hong's hateful face and the scene where he threatened her into calling him 'Brother-in-law,' Dark Seele ground her teeth so hard they almost shattered.
However—
The Seele here doesn't know!
Therefore, no matter how much humiliation and grievance she felt right now, she had to swallow it all down. Otherwise, White Seele would definitely notice.
So—
"I-I'm not close to that guy anyway. If you want to call him Big Brother (Niichan), then call him Big Brother. Just don't regret it later."
Crossing her arms and crossing her legs on her throne, she said with a look of unruly arrogance, "But don't drag me into calling him that!"
For now, maintaining her persona, she managed to blur the issue.
"Is that so... I guess it is."
Knowing Dark Seele's socially awkward nature well, White Seele said helplessly, "Then as long as you aren't rude in front of Luo Hong-niichan, that's fine. Please, I beg you, other me~"
Seeing that the hard approach wouldn't work, she switched directly to the soft one.

Sure enough—
"Fine, fine..."
Seeing White Seele plead like that, Dark Seele's expression softened. "I won't be rude in front of that guy, but I won't get close to him either. That's my final bottom line."
Despite her words, she really didn't dare to mess around in front of Luo Hong.
Otherwise, if that bastard turned around and revealed his relationship with Bronya, she suspected White Seele would go 'dark' instantly... even darker than herself!
Therefore, she decided to quit while she was ahead and immediately taught White Seele the method to enter Luo Hong's world.
At the same time—
I hope that guy hurries up and cleans the room. Don't let Seele notice anything strange.
Recalling the scenes she saw in the room earlier, her face flushed slightly, and she ended up being slower than White Seele to enter a meditative state.
...
Luo Hong's World, Seaside.
Wave after wave washed over the sandy beach, turning into white foam.
The sea breeze blew, causing Bronya, who was gazing at the distant sunset, to brush back her wind-blown silver hair.
"What's wrong?"
Leaning in close to Bronya, Luo Hong smiled. "Remembering the day your 'count' was reset to zero?"
"Ugh!"
Having her mood broken by Luo Hong, Bronya turned around and lightly hammered Luo Hong's chest with her small fists. "Bronya was not thinking about that!"
Despite her denial, her thoughts uncontrollably drifted back to the absurd scene where she and the sisters, Cang Xuan and Dan Zhu, had their numbers reset by Luo Hong right here... No wait, Dan Zhu was spared; she still had 1 left.
However, that seemed to have lost all meaning now.
"Alright, no need to be so anxious."
Gently pulling Bronya into his embrace, Luo Hong said with a smile, "Isn't it just seeing Seele again?"
"You've already seen one; seeing another won't hurt."
—Although this one is undoubtedly the most important!
"You still have the nerve to mention what happened just now?"
Bronya, who had been momentarily touched by Luo Hong's warmth, recalled the scenes in his bedroom earlier. She overheated again, her pretty face turning as red as the distant sunset.
"That can't be blamed on me."
Seeing this, a smile of amusement curled Luo Hong's lips. "I really didn't expect Bronya to be so thirsty as soon as she came [Online], pushing me down directly."
"You set the meeting place in the bedroom! Added to what happened yesterday, how could Bronya possibly resist?"
Rolling her eyes at Luo Hong, Bronya accused him, "If you really wanted to arrange for Bronya and Seele to meet, couldn't you have found a more appropriate place?"
"Who asked you to be my Head Maid?"
Shrugging, Luo Hong made a cunning excuse. "If I'm taking Seele to find you, naturally it has to be in the bedroom."
"Besides, with a door there, it adds a sense of surprise."
"A coffee shop wouldn't work? A dessert shop wouldn't work?"
Rolling her eyes at Luo Hong again, Bronya didn't believe a word of his sophistry.
"True. My Duckie is smart after all."
Saying that, Luo Hong smiled and lowered his head to kiss Bronya.
But just then—
"Bronya... Onee-chan?"
A voice, cautious and timid like a small animal, suddenly rang out. Bronya's expression changed instantly; her hazy eyes immediately became clear.
Turning her head, she saw Seele, who had just come [Online], running barefoot across the sand toward her.
Faced with this scene, amidst her excitement, she also plunged into deep despair.
Because—
Seele can't see this bad guy?
The moment she thought about the scene in the cafeteria repeating itself—this time with Seele as the audience—her vision went dark, and she wished she could just faint right there!
—Luo Hong, you big bad guy!
