Xingtetsu: You are not included in Elio's script!

The soft artificial light of the early morning filtered through the observation window, casting warm spots on the floor.

Lin Yu's biological clock made him wake up on time. Before he was fully conscious, his senses caught the unusual thing in the room.

It wasn't from Ester who was still sleeping in his arms, but a calm yet very present gaze.

He opened his eyes, followed his feeling and looked, his pupils contracted slightly.

On the single sofa not far from the end of the bed, Heita was sitting there leisurely.

She changed into a new dress, crossed her legs, rested one elbow on the armrest of the sofa, supported her chin with her palm, and tapped her knee lightly with the fingertips of her other hand.

Her famous gaze, which always carried a hint of inquiry and arrogance, was now unreservedly cast upon the two people sleeping in each other's arms on the bed. There was a playful and meaningful curve at the corner of her mouth, as if she was observing some extremely interesting experimental phenomenon.

Lin Yu was completely awake in an instant.

He subconsciously wanted to move, but found that one of his arms was still supported by Esther. The girl in his arms was breathing evenly and sleeping soundly, obviously unaware of the arrival of this uninvited guest.

"Good morning, sample." Heita spoke first, his voice was low, but it was clearly heard by Lin Yu.

"It seems that last night's 'auxiliary testing' project... was quite advanced?"

Her gaze shifted slightly downwards, sweeping across the floor.

There, Ester's nightgown and part of Lin Yu's coat were scattered a little messily, obviously taken off in a hurry last night.

At this moment, perhaps because she felt Lin Yu's instantly tense body, or perhaps because she heard Heita's not-too-light whisper, Ester also opened her eyes in a daze.

She blinked blankly at first, then met Lin Yu's close gaze and subconsciously revealed a soft smile that had just woken up.

But the next second, out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of a figure on the sofa that shouldn't be there!

"!!!"

Estelle's sleepiness was instantly shattered.

She gasped suddenly and sat up like a frightened rabbit, her heart pounding and her cheeks flushed red at a speed visible to the naked eye, the temperature so high that it could almost fry an egg.

"Ms. Black...Black Tower?! You...what are you doing..." She spoke incoherently, her mind going blank.

Heita's gaze slowly lifted from the clothes on the ground and fell back on Estelle's face, which was red as smoke. His eyebrows raised slightly, and his tone was calm but full of lethality.

"I'm here to confirm the subsequent impact data of the strange object, and by the way, to see if my important space station supervisor is up and working on time."

She paused, her eyes swept over the pile of clothes again, and added meaningfully, "It seems... that you worked too hard last night?"

This blatant suggestion made Ester's shame reach its peak!

"No...no! It's not what you think!" Ester was so anxious that her voice was almost tearful. She almost blurted out her defense, "I...I slept with my clothes on! We were just...just sleeping!"

In a hurry, in order to prove her "innocence", she suddenly pulled away the quilt covering her body.

He suddenly stood on the soft mattress and tried to show it to Heita.

Look, I'm in my pajamas!

However, she forgot two things.

First, she was wearing a silky suspender nightgown last night.

Secondly, after a night's sleep, the thin shoulder straps had already slipped down to her elbows, and her sudden standing up became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

The silky fabric instantly lost its support and slid quietly down her smooth skin, piling up at her feet.

Estella: “..?”

Lin Yu: "!!!"

Heita: “Oh?”

Time seemed to freeze at this moment.

The early morning light shone unhindered on the girl's white, almost glowing body, which was suddenly exposed to the cool air.

The graceful lines of shoulders and neck, the slightly rising chest, the slender waist, and the straight and slender legs... everything is revealed under the soft halo.

Estelle's brain completely shut down.

She stood there blankly, as if unable to understand what was happening before her eyes, her eyes wide open, and she even forgot to breathe.

Lin Yu reacted extremely quickly. Almost at the moment the cloth fell, he grabbed the quilt that was thrown aside by Esther, stood up suddenly at lightning speed, and wrapped the completely petrified Esther tightly with the wide quilt like a dumpling, and hugged her in his arms, blocking all the spring light from leaking out.

His movements were so fast that only a shadow was left behind.

During the whole process, Heita on the sofa did not even change the posture of supporting his chin, but his interested eyes widened slightly for a moment, and then returned to their original state. Even the playful smile at the corner of his mouth deepened a little, and he uttered a meaningful monosyllable.

"Oh~"

Ester, who was wrapped up with only her head exposed, finally came back to her senses from her extreme shock and stupor.

“Aa ...

A scream loud enough to shatter glass, a mixture of extreme shame, anger, fear and collapse, suddenly erupted, echoing throughout the room and perhaps even reaching the corridor outside.

She looked like a boiled shrimp, red from head to toe, with actual steam almost coming out of her head.

She buried her hot face in Lin Yu's chest, her body trembling violently because of extreme shame, making a whimpering, choking sound on the verge of collapse, and she wished she could find a black hole to crawl into and disappear forever.

"No...it's okay...it's okay." Lin Yu hugged the girl who was shaking in his arms and on the verge of social death. He patted her back soothingly and looked at the culprit helplessly.

The black tower still sits firmly on Diaoyutai.

Heita received his gaze and blinked innocently, his tone even having a hint of pure academic discussion.

"The reaction was intense, with subcutaneous capillaries significantly dilating and the stress-induced shame response reaching its peak."

"Hmm... this is very valuable research data on physiological and psychological interactions."

"..."

He was now very sure that Black Tower had done it on purpose.

She definitely calculated the time precisely and came here specifically to watch the fun.

"Black Tower." Lin Yu sighed, "Can you go out for a while?"

Heita looked at Ester, who wished she could turn into an ostrich, and then looked at Lin Yu, who looked helpless, and finally stood up slowly.

"Well, it seems that some samples need some 'post-disaster reconstruction' time." She walked towards the door with elegant steps. When she passed the bed, she paused and turned her head to say something to Ester, who still buried her face in Lin Yu's arms.

"By the way, Estelle, the environmental impact assessment report for Artifact-734 is on my desk at nine o'clock sharp. By the way, next time you work overtime, remember to lock the door."

After saying that, she contentedly opened the door, walked out, and very "considerately" closed the door gently.

The only people left in the room were Esther, who was almost ashamed to death, and Lin Yu, who was trying hard not to laugh.

"Oh... I'm too embarrassed to see anyone... Let me disappear..." Esther's muffled voice with a heavy crying tone came from Lin Yu's chest.

Lin Yu held back his laughter and gently stroked her hair, "Okay, okay, she's gone, it's okay..."

"She must have misunderstood! Completely misunderstood! And...and I also..." When Ester thought of her extremely stupid "proof" and the subsequent shocking mistake, she wanted to faint on the spot.

"It's okay." Lin Yu whispered to comfort her, trying to divert her attention, "Anyway... you'll see it sooner or later."

Ester in his arms suddenly stiffened, then raised her head and stared at him with tearful, shame-filled eyes.

"Lin Yu!"

It seems that Ester will need a long time today to repair her shattered image and broken nerves.

All of this was visible to the Black Tower, and would most likely become precious "research materials" for her to tease for a long time in the future.
