As a symbiotic being, I raise children amidst the chaos.

"Bronya understands, Brother Chenyuan." Bronya responded softly, shifting her gaze from Kiana and the others who were tightly embracing each other.

Just then, a slight mechanical whirring sound rang out, and the massive figure of Heavy Bunny quietly appeared beside her.

Bronya narrowed her eyes slightly, watching the screen flashing on the Heavy Bunny. A blue dot was steadily moving.

"Hmm... Bronya's tracker is indeed responding. It seems that Cocolia's mother is indeed here." Bronya said calmly, looking at the point of light.

Chen Yuan, standing to the side, silently observed everything. When he heard Bronya's words and saw the blue dot of light, he couldn't help but feel a strange sense of tension.

"Um... Bronya, it's not that I don't trust you..." He hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't help but ask cautiously, "It's about that tracker... I just wanted to ask, do I have one on me too?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Bronya turned her head sharply, looked at Chen Yuan with a puzzled expression, tilted her head in confusion, and said.

"Brother Chenyuan, what are you talking about? How could Bronya do such a thing to you! Of course you don't have that kind of thing on your body."

"Oh, that's wonderful..." Upon hearing Bronya's reply, Chen Yuan's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, instantly settled back into his stomach. He felt a great weight lifted off his shoulders and his whole body felt much lighter.

“In that case, let’s set off to find it…” However, before Chen Yuan could finish speaking, Bronya’s voice, which sounded like that of a succubus from hell, entered his ears again in the next second.

"Actually, I tried this method before, but because Brother Chenyuan's physical condition is too special, I had no choice but to give up in the end."

As Bronya spoke, she lowered her head slightly, seemingly still somewhat resentful of that defeat. Then, she raised her head again, her gaze fixed intently on Chen Yuan.

"It's okay! Bronya will definitely work even harder in the future!" she said loudly. Before she finished speaking, Bronya raised her right hand high.

As if cheering herself on, she shouted, "One day, Bronya will definitely succeed!"

"Uh... let's discuss this matter another day." Hearing this, Chen Yuan couldn't help but swallow hard.

At this moment, as Chen Yuan gazed at Bronya's confident demeanor, a strange sense of unease suddenly welled up from the bottom of his heart, because he always felt that Bronya could really do these things.

"Alright, alright, the most important thing right now is to find Cocolia as soon as possible..." Chen Yuan composed himself, suppressing the strange feeling in his heart, and quickly changed the subject.

After saying that, Chen Yuan took Bronya's soft little hand and strode forward quickly toward the blue light spot flashing above the Heavy Bunny.

The warm sunlight, like a golden veil, gently fell, enveloping their bodies and making their shadows appear exceptionally long, their reflections shimmering on the ground.

Meanwhile, Kiana, who had been immersed in the joy of reuniting with Cecilia and Siegfried, finally came to her senses and realized that she was not alone at this moment.

She clapped her hands excitedly, as if she had suddenly remembered something important, and said loudly, "Oh right, Dad and Mom, let me introduce you to some special people!"

“First of all, Bronya is one of my most important friends!” Kiana said enthusiastically, but when the topic turned to the next person, she involuntarily paused.

The man who held an incredibly special place in her heart, recalling all the moments they had shared since meeting Chen Yuan, made the word "friend," which she could easily utter, suddenly feel exceptionally heavy.

Unable to say it smoothly no matter what, Kiana hesitated for a long time before finally choosing to say it another way, "And the other one... is also one of the most important people in my life!"

Until the very last moment, Kiana ultimately failed to muster the courage to fully express the simple word "friend".

Just as Kiana was about to turn around and explain the details of her past to her parents, the scene before her made her eyes widen in astonishment.

It turns out that Chen Yuan and Bronya, who were just standing in the distance a moment ago, have disappeared without a trace!

"Huh? What's going on? Where did Chenyuan and Bronya go?" Kiana looked around anxiously, her heart filled with worry.

'Dust and Fate?' When Kiana uttered this name, Cecilia and Siegfried couldn't help but exchange a glance, their eyes meeting and exchanging some kind of information.

Then, the two nodded in unison. Cecilia slowly knelt down, her gentle gaze falling on Kiana. She gently reached out and softly stroked Kiana's head.

"Mr. Chenyuan may have some important matters to attend to, so he has left temporarily. Let's go home and get some rest first. Later, Mom will have your dad go out and look for him, okay?"

Cecilia smiled and said to Kiana, "Besides, your father hasn't seen Mr. Chenyuan for a long time either."

"Great!!! Going home! Kiana has never seen this house before!!!" Upon hearing that she could go home, Kiana's previously worried heart was immediately filled with joy.

Her bright eyes sparkled with excitement, and a radiant smile bloomed on her face. Then, just then, Kiana suddenly sensed something was amiss and asked in confusion.

"But does your stinky old man also know that guy Chen Yuan?" The second half of the sentence was alright, but the first half was like a sharp sword, piercing straight into Cecilia's heart.

She was slightly taken aback, and an indescribable pain welled up in her heart. As a mother, hearing her beloved daughter say such things was a hurt that words could not describe.

At that moment, Cecilia felt as if her heart had shattered into countless pieces, each one throbbing with pain.

“Yes, they do know each other, and there’s a rather long story between them.” Cecilia took a few deep breaths, suppressing the overwhelming sadness that was washing over her.

She slowly stood up, forcing a slightly strained smile. "My dear Kiana, Mommy will tell you the story slowly when we get home~"

----------

On the other side, there was a slightly old office with its door wide open. Outside the door, Chen Yuan and Bronya stood there. After their eyes met, they cautiously glanced at the slightly ajar door.

The room was dimly lit, giving it a rustic atmosphere. Cocolia sat upright at a large desk.

He held the pen with complete concentration, the nib scratching on the paper as if he were recording something of utmost importance.

Occasionally, she would pause what she was doing, her beautiful brows furrowing slightly as she fell into deep thought. At this moment, Cocolia was dressed in a green military uniform, looking dashing and spirited.

Her long, flowing golden hair was neatly tied into a simple ponytail, swaying gently with the slight movement of her head, further highlighting her unparalleled capable demeanor.

"It's been a long time..." Looking at the familiar woman in front of him, Chen Yuan couldn't help but smile faintly.

Immediately afterwards, his body shrank instantly as if by magic, and then quickly burrowed into Bronya's body.

"Bronya, you go in first. Let me see if I can give Cocolia a big surprise!" Chen Yuan's playful voice came from Bronya's body.

“Brother Chenyuan… Bronya understands.” A faint helplessness appeared in Bronya’s eyes, and she couldn’t help but sigh softly.

Then, Bronya slowly raised her fair and delicate hand and gently placed it on the door, making a few crisp knocks. The sound was soft, but it was enough to attract the attention of the people inside.

"Come in." A cold response came from inside the room. Cocolia didn't even raise her head, but simply uttered the word in a flat tone devoid of any emotion.

Clearly, the busy woman had already heard the knocking at the door, but at that moment she was so focused on her work that she had no time to pay attention to anything else.

"I'm busy right now. If it's not important, just leave it on the table. Don't bother me. I'll deal with it when I'm done."

After receiving permission, Bronya carefully pushed open the door and stepped into the room. As the door opened, the light from the desk shone directly onto Cocolia's slightly pale face.

The light made her already delicate features stand out even more, but her pale complexion gave her a tired look.

The moment Bronya stepped into the room, Cocolia's pen, which was recording important information, suddenly stopped moving.

Sensing the unusual identity of the newcomer through her keen hearing, Cocolia looked up in astonishment the very next second. A flicker of surprise flashed in her slightly tired eyes.

"Bronya? What are you doing here?" Cocolia looked at Bronya with a face full of surprise, her words filled with disbelief. She never imagined that Bronya would be standing in front of her.

"Shouldn't you be studying at St. Freya Academy, founded by that little brat Theresa, with Chen Yuan right now? How did you suddenly end up at the North American branch of Anti-Entropy?" Cocolia frowned and asked in confusion.

Bronya listened quietly to Cocolia's questions, her gaze slowly sweeping over the surroundings. The office was a mess, piled high with documents, and Cocolia herself looked exhausted.

Her slightly haggard face clearly showed that she hadn't had a proper rest in a long time. Seeing this, Bronya's heart tightened slightly.
