Star Iron, after using the mod to make the Big Black Tower dark, the game became real

Feeling the binding around her neck, Liu Ying lost her balance and fell into Jiang Wei's arms, inhaling his scent.

Only pets are kept on leashes.

The shame brought by the collar, along with the cream she had licked from Jiang Wei's palm earlier, left Liu Ying speechless with a complicated situation.

"I don't really like it... but it's kind of new and exciting... Do other couples do this kind of thing?"

"Probably not."

"That……"

Liu Ying wanted to say that she didn't like it either.

Before she could even speak, her gaze swept over the rope, and the connection between the two ends made Firefly hesitate.

She ultimately couldn't bring herself to say no.

With her head bowed, her expression shifted between joy and silence, sinking into a shallow melancholy.

"It's just a personal hobby, really."

Jiang Wei gently embraced her, brushing Liu Ying's soft hair, inhaling her fragrance, and listening to her soft breathing.

She is like a delicate flower, which has grown exceptionally resilient after being battered by torrential rain.

But he firmly believes that with continued careful nurturing, sooner or later the firefly will become incredibly docile.

Shedding its former "wild" qualities, it becomes soft, sweet, and fragrant, allowing him to fertilize and prune its branches, blooming only for him.

……

"Liu Ying."

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Liu Ying turned her head.

Kafka and the silver wolf stood in the dim light.

"Kafka, Silver Wolf? You didn't leave."

How could I possibly abandon you?

Kafka smiled gently and hesitated for half a second.

"What are you going to do?"

The fireflies were tamed by Jiang Wei.

This is not normal.

She is a Star Core Hunter, and she should have the courage to resist things she doesn't like.

Kafka suspects that Jiang Wei used mind control or similar abilities to interfere with Liu Ying.

"Kafka".

As the fireflies caught Jiang Wei's scent and felt the warmth of his embrace, they bid farewell to the past.

"I'm not going to be a Star Core Hunter anymore..."

She can never go back; her soul has been etched with Jiang Wei's mark.

Even with a collar and confined in a cage, she could only get her three meals a day from Jiang Wei.

Chapter 21 Barefoot Service at the Great Black Tower

Liu Ying took a breath and spoke apologetically.

“I joined the Star Core Hunters in search of the meaning of life. Although I haven’t found it yet, returning to the Star Core Hunters will only take me further away from the answer.”

"Kafka, Silver Wolf, we are still family, but I regret to say that without Jiang Wei's orders, we may not be able to team up for missions again. I wish you both safety."

"…fine."

Kafka's lips curled into a smile.

"Keep in touch if you need anything. If you've been wronged by Jiang Wei, I'll stand up for you."

"Yeah, Firefly, add me. If you need anything, just call me. I'm online 24/7."

……

The Star Core Hunter's farewell was not grand.

It was exceptionally quiet and peaceful.

Before leaving, Kafka glanced at Jiang Wei with a hint of curiosity.

Silver Wolf, sulking, waved goodbye to Firefly and left with a touch of sadness.

It's easy to say "let's part ways amicably."

As Firefly leaves the Star Core Hunters, her relationship with them will eventually become more distant and will never be the same as before.

“Jiang Wei…”

Liu Ying gently pinched the hem of his clothes with her fingers, very tightly, as if grasping at a lifeline.

She raised her small face to meet Jiang Wei's gaze, and a glistening tear welled up in her pupils from her anxiety.

She dared not look away, fearing that Jiang Wei would toy with her body and soul and then discard her once he was tired of her.

"You like me, right?"

"of course."

Jiang Wei's words gave her courage.

Fireflies bloomed brightly with smiles, their arms encircling his neck.

A sweet, alluring fragrance wafts by, a blend of firefly scents and dessert aromas.

……

Jiang Wei brought fireflies to the bedroom.

She seemed to have something on her mind, but hesitated to speak.

"what happened?"

"This place is much bigger than where I lived before. It has a soft bed, a spacious living room, and two floors. Daily cleaning is not a big deal, but I just feel... not used to it."

"dislike?"

"That's not it."

Liu Ying had an idea, and her eyes lit up.

She hugged Jiang Wei and coaxed him in a soft, sweet voice.

"Could you help me rearrange the layout, in a way you like?"

"My preferred way?"

Jiang Wei was somewhat confused.

Why would he like something that's clearly Ying's bedroom? That sounds strange.

But then he thought again, and lifted Liuying's chin, staring into her shy eyes.

Firefly made an adorable, cute face.

"What's wrong?"

"You're very brave."

……

"This pillow is uncomfortable."

Would a bigger bed be more suitable?

"Jiang Wei, do you have a key? This is the key to my room. I'll give it to you."

"Can I plant some sunflowers? They must look beautiful when they bloom."

It was as if baby birds were returning to their nest.

Liu Ying clearly considered this place her home, and insisted on dragging Jiang Wei along to do all sorts of things with her.

Jiang Wei looked at the silver key in his palm.

This is the key to Liuying's room. With it, he can freely enter and exit Liuying's room.

"...Jiang Wei."

The fireflies began to wriggle and sway.

Her cheeks were flushed, and her eyes were darting around.

"I'm listening, what is it?"

"I want to make a deal with you."

"trade?"

"Yes~"

Liu Ying moved closer to him, her slightly sweaty collarbone faintly visible beneath her collar.

Jiang Wei smelled her body fragrance, which carried a subtle allure.

"Go ahead."

Jiang Wei wanted to hear what the fireflies were up to.

Liu Ying hesitated for three seconds.

Summoning her courage, she stared straight at him with her beautiful eyes, allowing Jiang Wei to see into her pure heart.

"I'm giving you the key to the room."

"Can I have your key too?"

"You really know how to play."

Jiang Wei took out his key.

The key was placed in Liuying's hand. The moment Liuying touched the key, her cheeks flushed red and her breathing became erratic.

"Thank...Thank you."

"Now you're starting to get shy."

"I will protect it..."

Liu Ying gripped the key tightly and gently embraced Jiang Wei.

Goodnight, Jiang Wei~

……

The office of the Big Black Tower.

Jiang Wei helped Da Heita change into a set of pajamas.

Signaling the Black Tower dolls to be quiet.

No one is allowed to inform on others, nor can they make any noise to disturb the Great Black Tower's sleep.

morning.

Daheita opened her eyes groggily, the blanket slipping over her soft, fragrant shoulders, a glimpse of white skin glowing in the morning light.

Her bare feet, dwarfed and delicate, curved in a breathtaking arc.

The skin is thin, and you can see the light blue vein patterns underneath.

Like the fragrance of flower petals, it permeated every nook and cranny, drifting towards Jiang Wei in wisps and strands.

"woke up?"

Who helped me change into my pajamas?
