Me and My Two Bosses' Systems

“We can help too,” Yufinal tugged at the hem of Tian Shu’s clothes, indicating that she could also lend a hand.

“You’re all guardians of the little star now. Unless there’s something else you haven’t finished dealing with, you should definitely come and help, right?” Tian Shu looked at Yu Fenar strangely, his face full of doubt.

Li Xingyu explained the arrangements for the next two days to Xinghe. Yufengna and the other two thought that Li Xingyu had excluded them, so Yufengna, who was closer to Xinghe and the others, was prompted by Cain to ask.

As for Che, he was completely engrossed in studying the sheet music that Li Xingyu had just sent to the group, and probably hadn't even listened to Li Xingyu and the others' arrangements.

Tian Shu's matter-of-fact answer surprised Euphemiah and Cain. What he said made sense!

"Don't overthink it. Little Star told Xinghe this because he's the steward here and knows this place better than Little Star, so he told Xinghe first," Tian Shu explained to the two of them after a moment's thought.

Tian Shu glanced at Li Xingyu, who was still talking to Xinghe, and lowered his voice slightly to say to You Feinaer beside him, "Xiao Xing is a rather slow and straightforward person. If you have any questions for Xiao Xing or any thoughts you have, just tell her directly. Don't try to test her or anything like that."

"Hmm, Little Feather doesn't like beating around the bush, but she's very perceptive when it comes to emotions. It's just that sometimes she can't empathize. When you're with Little Feather, it's better to express your truest feelings directly through words, actions, and actions. Little Feather is a gentle yet strong person. She will listen attentively and feel things deeply." Li Yue also joined the conversation, hugging her big tail.

Tian Shu and Li Yue both knew that their volume was loud enough for everyone in the living room to hear, including Li Xingyu, which was something she tacitly approved of.

Although Li Xingyu is not very good at expressing her emotions, she has always insisted on speaking out: if something is wrong, she can say it out loud. Although there may not be an immediate solution, at least she won't keep it bottled up inside and make herself feel uneasy.

These were words that Li Xingyu had said to everyone in her family, Xinghe, Tianshu, and Liyue before, and now she wanted to tell Yufinar, Che, and Cain as well.

Barring unforeseen circumstances, such as breaking the law or intentionally injuring the woman being protected, the guardian will stay by the woman's side until she reaches adulthood and has two or three partners.

Li Xingyu didn't want to interact with them like superiors and subordinates. The guardians had come all the way to her side, not to be her subordinates.

"I see. That's unexpected. It seems our guardian is a gentle and special person. I'm sorry, I was overthinking it." Cain had a thoughtful expression on his face and gave Tian Shu an apologetic smile.

As someone who grew up in a family with strict aristocratic requirements, Cain would unconsciously observe and try to understand the other person's meaning through small gestures, tone of voice, and micro-expressions. Because the expression was so subtle, it would be embarrassing and impolite to misunderstand.

It's understandable that they might feel a little uncomfortable to suddenly encounter a guardian who directly expresses everything and other guardians.

"It's alright. But if you're really not good at expressing yourself directly, Cain can learn some ancient Blue Star etiquette. Little Star will understand; she's quite knowledgeable about these things. You can go to the library on the fifth floor or borrow some books on this topic from Little Star. I think she'll be happy to help you." Tian Shu looked at Cain, who always maintained an elegant yet aloof demeanor. Considering his surname and race, he immediately understood why. Seeing the other's somewhat bewildered expression, he offered his helpful advice.

"I see, thank you, Tian Shu..." Cain's habitual suffix was swallowed back silently by Tian Shu's disapproving and enigmatic smile.

"Yes, that's right. Keep it up. Etiquette is something you only need to show in formal, grand, or public occasions. At home, I mean at Little Star's home, you don't need to worry about these things. They don't really do these things at home." Tian Shu looked at Cain with a smile and nodded with satisfaction.

"Hmm, is everyone at Xingyu's house this relaxed and casual?" Cain asked, somewhat puzzled, as he listened to Tian Shu's words.

“Great-grandmother and the others said that home is a place where you can relax and feel comfortable. If you have to be careful about everything like you are outside, then it loses its meaning and feeling of home. Is it still home then? Cain can relax a bit here. If you want to learn about the ancient etiquette of Blue Star, I can help you find some books.” Li Xingyu and Xinghe had just finished speaking and had been listening to Tian Shu and Cain’s conversation. Hearing Cain’s question, they couldn’t help but join in.

Anyway, everyone knew perfectly well what was going on, no, they heard it all clearly, so there was nothing wrong with Li Xingyu getting involved in their conversation.

"Ahem, Xingyu, I'll have to trouble you again in the future." Cain coughed lightly, embarrassed, and couldn't help but blush as he looked at Li Xingyu's smiling face.

"Sure, sure," Li Xingyu replied with a smile.

"Xingyu, Xinghe, is there any recording equipment here?" Che's excited voice rang out, his expression already showing some impatience.

"Huh? Xinghe, besides the one in my room, is there one on the fifth floor? Or are you preparing a set of equipment to set up in Che's room as well?" Li Xingyu looked at Xinghe beside her with a blank expression.

Li Xingyu really didn't know much about this, mainly because she had one in her own room, so she didn't pay much attention to whether there was a recording studio in other parts of her house, and could only ask Xinghe for help.

To be fair, Che's name was pronounced well, especially Xinghe's name. Did he know about the situation at the Li family's ancestral home and all the members of the Li family beforehand?

"Why are you all looking at me like that? Isn't this what you were talking about just now? Isn't it true?" Before Xinghe could answer, Che was already puzzled by the expressions on Tian Shu's and the others' faces.

"Hmm... Che, weren't you studying the sheet music very seriously just now? Did you hear what we were talking about? And remember it?" Li Yue was a little curious because Che had really been engrossed in studying the sheet music.

His fascination manifested itself in the fact that he would accept anything handed to him by anyone and put it in his arms. Right now, Che's arms are still full of strange and unusual things.

"Of course I heard everything. My hearing is fine, and it hasn't even been three minutes since you guys started discussing this. Even fish don't have such short memories. Hmm? Why do I have so many strange things and fruits here?" Che looked at his arms and felt a strange weight and sensation. He looked completely bewildered.

"Ahem, it's nothing. Grandpa Zian, when will Great-Grandma and the others finish dealing with things? It's getting late, and I'll be full if I eat any more." Li Xingyu coughed twice and turned to talk to Si Zian.

When Li Xingyu first saw Che engrossed in his work, she mischievously handed him a jujube. Che readily accepted the jujube and put it in his pocket, his eyes never leaving the screen of his personal computer.

Si Zian found it amusing and handed an empty cup to Che, who, as expected, took it and put it in his arms.

The others immediately became interested as well. Except for Cain, they all handed Che various items. Of course, they were careful not to give him anything sharp or fragile; they gave him small and delicate items instead.

This led to the strange bunch of things that Che is holding now.

"Xingyu~" Che called out Li Xingyu's name in a resentful tone.

Li Xingyu's guilty conscience and attempt to change the subject were so obvious that Che would be stupid if he didn't notice. Of course, this was also something Li Xingyu did on purpose; she was genuinely quite indifferent now.

The animated film was still playing, but Li Xingyu had already completely pictured the upcoming scenes and images in her mind. She felt it would be better to watch it again after a while.

"Hehe, Che was so engrossed in watching just now, completely absorbed, so... I couldn't help it... I'm sorry." Li Xingyu placed her hands on Yu Fenar's raised arm to steady her, leaned her body slightly towards Yu Fenar, and looked at Che, who was glaring at her angrily, with a slight bow of her head as she apologized.

"It's alright, these things mean nothing to me. I was just a little shy. There are so many people here, I was just too engrossed in watching. Xingyu, you don't need to apologize." Che shook his head, got off the sofa, and walked to Li Xingyu. His clear and ethereal voice softened as he gently patted Li Xingyu's arm and explained.

"Really?" Li Xingyu felt the faint strength coming from her arm and hesitated before turning to look at Che, who was squatting next to her. Che's long, dark blue hair, reaching his ankles, was cascading gracefully on the milky white carpet. Che was looking at her intently, his azure eyes filled with shyness and tenderness that could no longer be hidden.

Li Xingyu had just thought that Che looked really good when he was so focused and absorbed, but he also seemed easy to bully. As soon as this thought crossed her mind, her hand started moving. Unexpectedly, she led everyone to hand the things to Che, and then handed them to him several times under these circumstances. It was really wrong of her, since he was her protector.

"Yes, really, Xingyu, you don't need to apologize like that. I'm so happy to see a different side of Xingyu. Just now, I felt like Xingyu was radiating light, like a star. Now, Xingyu's light has dimmed a bit. Don't be unhappy, okay?" Che nodded seriously, hesitated for a moment, and then pulled on Li Xingyu's white pipa sleeve.

"Thank you, Che. I'll be more careful in the future and try not to be so naughty." Li Xingyu excitedly lunged at Che, then froze.

"Chu mi! Why did I suddenly jump into Che's arms? Am I that easily excited? Oh no, this is a bit awkward now. How can I leave Che's embrace naturally and harmoniously? Speaking of which, Che's temperature and embrace are quite comfortable, like hugging the ocean. Is it because he's a mermaid? Cool and fragrant, soft and comfortable~" Li Xingyu buried herself in Che's embrace, mentally ranting, but soon veered off-topic.

"Oh~ Little Feather, are you so happy? What happened? Little Feather, if you don't let go, Che will get cooked." Delas's voice rang out from behind Li Xingyu and the others.

"Huh? Che, are you alright? Why are you so red? Are you sick?" Li Xingyu only heard Delas's last sentence: Che is about to get hot? He's about to get hot! What's going on? Why did his body suddenly become hot? And why is his whole body red? She quickly stood up and shook Che's shoulders with both hands.

"I, I'm, I'm fine. Xingyu, could you, could you let go of my hand first?" Ever since Li Xingyu pounced on him, Che's mind had been shut down. He had been trying to restart it, but every time he was about to succeed, Li Xingyu in his arms would shock him and shut him down again. It wasn't until Delas's voice rang out that Li Xingyu left his arms.

Heaven knows that Che almost fell to the ground just now. He didn't know where to put his hands, so he could only hold them stiffly and helplessly in mid-air, letting Li Xingyu's breath hit his neck, making his whole body turn from fair to pink, and then to a deep red.

"Hehe~ Little Feather, just let Che be by himself for a while. We've already taken care of everything. It's time to eat. Little Feather, you must have worked so hard cooking. Were you scared?" Qin Fengshi was only a step behind Delas, and had just been watching Li Xingyu and the others with a smile. Seeing Che's expression, he shook his head inwardly and sighed, "Truly a young man indeed."

Qin Feng sighed inwardly at how young he was, then chuckled to himself, completely forgetting what had happened when he was a guardian. He wasn't much better off than Che, and was even worse off than Che.

“Okay, Grandpa, let’s go eat. Che, let’s go eat!” Li Xingyu nodded to Qin Fengshi and then patted Che’s shoulder.

Li Xingyu now understands why Che is acting this way; he realized it after hearing Qin Feng's words.

"Okay, Xingyu, go ahead. I'll catch up right away." Che buried his face in his knees, his voice somewhat muffled.

"Ah~ Che is shy, it's okay~ it's okay~ do you still want a hug?" Li Xingyu's mischievousness surged up again when she saw Che like this, and she opened her arms to Che, who was looking up at her slightly.

"Yes!" Che buried his face back down again, and Tian Shu's voice came from beside Li Xingyu as he embraced her.
