Night.

villa.

The picture is projected on the TV.

“To put it in the simplest terms, people from different time periods cannot possibly meet each other.”

“But for reference, my sister’s ability.”

“Xiaoye has come to the conclusion that Big Brother’s ability cannot be ruled out.”

“Big Brother’s ability exists to destroy the main body. Or there is another necessary relationship.”

“…”

Xia Ye was wearing Su Ming’s shirt and standing in front of the TV. Her body was only one-third of the screen at most.

so.

Facing the two An Shiyaos sitting side by side, she couldn’t give a definite reason.

“…”

Xia You, the younger sister, was also in the living room.

But Su Ming was wrong.

I thought she knew everything, but…

Because she likes it, it must be true. Her way of judging things is too simple.

“I have questions!”

An Shiyao raised her hand. Yes, it was… the real An Shiyao that Su Ming was most familiar with, who raised her hand with a serious expression.

“I don’t know what the relationship is between Mr. Su Ming’s ability and monsters.”

“But if there is another me, is there also another Mr. Su Ming?”

“…”

That’s a very good question.

However, what was Yao’s purpose in asking this question?
“If so, then the person she wants is not Mr. Su Ming.”

“…”

Su Ming wanted to speak, but when he met An Shiyao’s eyes, he was very serious.

“I’m not jealous or envious. Until now, I have accepted others because they are no worse than me and my feelings are no less than mine.”

“But it’s different now.”

“Even she herself could only give an ambiguous answer. There was no way to prove which Mr. Su Ming was wanted.”

“…”

No.

Not so.

Su Ming turned his gaze to Xiao An on the left. She lowered her eyes, put her legs together, and clasped her hands together nervously.

“Besides, it’s so weird.”

“Mr. Su Ming and I met in Haidao City. She is completely different.”

“So… I’m actually fake?”

“…”

An Shiyao was not wrong either.

If we admit that what Xiao An said is true, how do we explain her experience?

Who comes first and who comes later? Who is real and who is fake?
“I, I’m sorry… I, I was probably created. Everything I said doesn’t count.”

Xiao An stuttered to break the silence.

“If it doesn’t count, what reason do you have to like Mr. Su Ming?”

“…”

Facing An Shiyao’s sharp eyes, she rubbed her knuckles unconsciously, “There are many reasons… Even if I don’t have the memory, I will definitely like it.”

“…”

An Shiyao stared at her for several seconds, then stood up and walked away without saying anything.

2 month 3 day.

late at night.

The Spring Festival is coming in a week. It should be a time of joy.

But Su Ming couldn’t sleep in the master bedroom. Was he kicked out?

Said he wanted to be alone.

Xia Ye briefly stated his conclusion and then returned to the laboratory, saying that he wanted to confirm whether the original body was really gone.

By the way, I transplanted some of the flesh and blood that Xia You had eaten into Ye Ye’s incubator.

And Xiao An.

“Sorry……”

“If not, it’s okay for me to leave.”

She said it very seriously, “Um, I…should I change my name?”

“Change your fart’s name. Go to bed.”

Su Ming waved his hand.

The situation is not that serious.
2 month 4 day.

early morning.

Su Ming originally thought he would sleep on the balcony today.

But An Shiyao came out as expected and didn’t sleep.

The lights were off, and he hadn’t changed out of his pajamas since he entered the room. He was still wearing his work uniform.

“Mr. Su Ming, what do you think?”

“I didn’t think so.”

“…”

An Shiyao sat next to him, “But I met Mr. Su Ming in Haidao City. I was taking Xiaoxi out to relax, and then I encountered that kind of thing.”

“Ah.”

“Could it be that…I want to go to Sea Island City because of the experience she described?”

An Shiyao hugged her knees and said, “Before I went to Haidao City, I… never had any interest in going to the beach. I don’t like water.”

“…”

Su Ming couldn’t answer.

“Even if that’s the case, she should be where she belongs. Will she be okay if she stays here?”

“No. Xia You can also pass through those strange places. She’s always fine. The same goes for me.”

“…How am I going to explain this to Dad later?”

“…”

how to explain?

To my father-in-law.

Ok.

Not only do I want your two daughters now, but I also want to bring your daughter from another timeline over as well?
He will probably be killed, right?
2 month 4 day.

early.

“Mmmmm~”

What is that sound?

As soon as I open my eyes.

It should be still dark, and all I could see was that the blanket, which had been covering me properly, had a corner lifted up by someone.

There was a petite shadow lying there.

“…Xia You?”

“Big brother, I recognized him right away.”

“…”

nonsense.

Xiaoye would not do such a thing.

“So, why do you have to get so close?”

Ok?
It seems like there was some kind of promise in the game?
“Xiaoyou, have you been waiting?”

“Be good and wait until big brother is free.”

“…Wait.”

“Big Brother, you are a trustworthy human~”

“So, wait!”

2 month 4 day.

early.

An Shiyao got up.

I heard two voices, one big and one small, in the living room and just took a look.

“……abnormal.”

The smiling face turned stiff and he went into the bathroom to wash up without looking back.

Breakfast, gone.

She just turned a blind eye and went to work with a sullen face.

2 month 4 day.

early.

Xiao An also came out of the room.

He stood there in surprise at first, then immediately retracted his gaze.

“I did not see anything!”

“…”

No.

Generally speaking, if you don’t see it, you won’t say it.

She also ran to the bathroom to wash up, and then went to the kitchen.

Perhaps he discovered the breakfast left by An Shiyao, and put it in the microwave to heat it up in a daze.

“…”

Su Ming gave up completely.

Really forget it?

This is how life is, we can only make do with our lives.

morning.

Mr. Su Ming went out. The girl was punished to copy the code of conduct because she was too clingy.

I……

Xiao An. I am not dissatisfied with being called this now.

I stared at the girl as she carefully copied the code of conduct. Her handwriting was very beautiful, and it only took her one minute to copy it the first time with her tentacles, but she wiped it clean immediately.

It was replaced with ugly, twisted, reptilian handwriting.

“Eh? Why did you write it so ugly on purpose?”

“No, I will destroy the happiness that my big brother has brought me in advance.”

“…”

develop?

I don’t understand it, but I always think it’s amazing.

Look around here.

The lobby is spacious, simple and clean without any flashy decorations.

There are black stains in the kitchen range hood, which proves that it is often used. It seems that the other me is amazing… a good wife and mother, and I can also take care of work.

I really don’t care about flannel or anything like that.

Ok……

That is, it is impossible to associate this kind of words with Mr. Su Ming. So it is normal to be scolded after saying that he will keep his promise.

“sorry.”

“I was…useless before.”

I think I should apologize to her, and more.

“Thank you, I would have died without you.”

“Oh.”

She showed no sign of turning back and continued to lie on the ground copying the code of conduct.

“I didn’t. I wanted to save you.”

The voice is slightly childish, yet very calm.

“I have no interest in humans. I saved you because of you, big brother.”

“Thank you anyway. Yeah.”

Anyway, the reason doesn’t matter.

After all, the great and glorious death seemed to be righteous, isn’t it good now?

Time… it’s almost the New Year.

I have an idea.

I hope that I can establish a good relationship with the other me…the one I should now call my sister, before the Spring Festival.

What is she missing?

I picked up my phone.

[The other party is already your friend! Send a message and chat now! ]

Already accepted my friend request.

Something I want to post…

[Although I know this request is a bit presumptuous, can you switch with me? I think no sister understands Mr. Su Ming. ]

[So, my sister will be able to help Mr. Su Ming with his current troubles. ]

[Um… Could you please let me handle the work temporarily? ]

【…】

It took her at least ten minutes to reply.

[Was it Mr. Su Ming who proposed this? No, you are Mr. Su Ming, right? Don’t think you can always tempt me with this kind of thing and then be forgiven! ]

[I’m going on a business trip. It’ll be for half a month! ]

[Are you still saying we’re just friends? So early in the morning… like that. Scum.]

【…】

Eh?
Did I say something wrong?
Also, did Mr. Su Ming do anything with the girl this morning? In my opinion, it was just a heartfelt pat on the head.

[You are really not Mr. Su Ming? ]

【It is not (voice).】

【…】

The conversation was silent for several minutes.

[They really didn’t do anything else? Just a normal pat on the head?]

[Well, Mr. Su Ming seemed to ask her to copy the code of conduct because she was too clingy, and she is still copying it now. ]

Of course, it doesn’t seem that ordinary to me.

At least it’s pretty close. Most relationships aren’t that close. But, there’s no need to emphasize it, right?
[Okay, just pretend I didn’t say anything. You said you wanted to switch with me? Why?]

【…】

why?

One is to pray that the relationship can get better.

two is……

I have a strange obsession.

[I hope to see you and Mr. Su Ming’s warm side. Then… I will be very happy.]

【…】

She was silent for several minutes.

【Understood. 】

【You have the taste of the minotaur. 】

Eh?
What is a Minotaur?
[Don’t play dumb, how could you not know? ]

【…】

I really do not know.

[Don’t tell Mr. Su Ming. Ah… How can I be so pure. No, I should have been so pure before… Damn it! ]

I turned on my phone and checked the browser.

【Meaning: Something that belongs to someone ends up in someone else’s hands】

【…】

I understand.

My face started to feel hot.

No, that’s not right!

How could I have that?
How could I be happy just because I saw Mr. Su Ming with another woman?

Not right either.

In the morning, seeing the girl and Mr. Su Ming together… I felt really happy.

Am I really a pervert?
2 month 4 day.

noon.

Because An Shiyao said in advance that she would not be back at noon, Su Ming planned to buy vegetables and cook lunch by himself.

“Xiao Ming, have you asked Yaoyao when her holiday is?”

“She’s really something. Every time I ask, she always says it’s almost time to rest, but there’s no exact time. There has to be an exact time so that the old man and I can prepare in advance.”

“…”

My mother-in-law called.

But what should I do?
An Shiyao just sent me a message saying she was going on a business trip. Although I know it was a quarrel…

“By the way, Xiaoxi is going too. Why don’t you and Yaoyao come pick her up then? We can also take your car back so it’s convenient for us to carry things.”

What does mother-in-law mean?

“Haha, although we can’t let too many outsiders know. But it doesn’t matter if my in-laws know. Put yourself in their shoes. Under the premise that we have accepted it, my in-laws won’t say anything. You have to be prepared to be scolded.”

“…”

what?
This is…this.

“Now that it’s already been done, you have to treat Xiaoxi well. You are not an ordinary person, but Xiaoxi is, and she only has you.” “…”

It really made me cry.

“Well, let’s not talk about it for now. This old man is drunk again, so he just said a few words, didn’t he?”

2 month 4 day.

noon.

After buying groceries, Su Ming casually scrolled through his phone on the way back.

When I drive to Kyoto to pick someone up, it will be too much to add me as a driver, right?
Ok?
No, Yao, Xiaoxi, my father-in-law, my mother-in-law, and myself… there are exactly five of us. Why do I subconsciously feel that I will exceed the limit?

2 month 4 day.

noon.

kitchen.

“Um…can I help?”

“Sure, just help me peel some garlic. About four or five. And help me get the dried chilies in the fridge.”

“Mr. Su Ming is very skilled.”

“Well… aren’t you too?”

Seeing Xiao An peeling the garlic and cutting it into neat slices skillfully is not something that someone who has never cooked before can do.

“Although I am very traditional and conservative in that regard, I think that no matter if you are a strong woman or not, you must know how to cook.”

“Oh, yes. Mr. Su Ming.”

“?”

“I’m celebrating the New Year, can I just stay here?”

“…”

“Sister Xiaoyou and the others are here too, so I won’t be lonely.”

“it is good.”

Su Ming is not pretentious either.

Bringing An Xiaoxi back would require a big heart from my aunts. Bringing all the wives back at once… is not necessary for now.

It’s not something to show off.

At most, my aunt knows about it, but I don’t know the others well. Why do I have to know?
“Big brother, I’ve copied it.”

“…”

Su Ming was about to say something else when Xia You ran in holding a notebook.

Ox.

The handwriting was so ugly that it reminded Su Ming of his own crooked handwriting when he was a child and had just been reborn. He remembered being laughed at by… by whom?

what.

Jiang Mengying.

It should be her. Afterwards, she learned from her mistakes and practiced calligraphy like crazy. Finally, she was able to look like a human being.

“Rewrite it. And… can’t you read? What are circles and crosses?”

“I can read, but I can’t write.”

“…”

what.

She can’t write?

“…”

What is Xiao An laughing at? Is it funny?
This is a crime!

Sese understands everything, but she can’t write.

“Listen carefully, the word zhi in sincere is written like this… not the word zhi in treatment.”

2 month 4 day.

in the afternoon.

I had been planning to talk to Xiao An some more, but she wanted to go out for a walk by herself.

“I want to see if the winter market is any different from what I remember. I’ve lived in 2024, too.”

“…”

She said so, and Su Ming did not force it. Anyway, now that he was full and satisfied, there was nothing special to do.

Just teach Xia You to read.

“Kiss… it’s written like this.”

“Oh.”

“Foot… Hey, are you kidding me?”

Su Ming is not an idiot. How could someone be able to write “鬼魅” (ghost) but not be able to write “足” (foot)?
“No, Xiaoyou doesn’t know how to write. 足.”

As she spoke, she even bent her legs and deliberately placed the notebook on her calves.

“Big brother?”

If you look closely, this guy is actually pretty cute.

It’s exactly the same as Xia Ye, except that the expression is more lively and I like to smile with a bit of mischief.

“Big brother, are you finally going to fulfill your promise?”

Touched the shirt she was wearing.

That was the dress that Xia Ye wore yesterday…Su Ming’s dress. For her, it was the same, long enough to be a skirt.

“Yeah. It’s not really a promise… After all, you’re really cute. And you’re pretty courageous.”

Now Su Ming also knew that she was not without fear at that time. She just simply wanted to believe in herself.

Moreover, just going to that strange place, according to Xiaoye…almost exhausted all her strength. Even after devouring the flesh and blood of the ‘main body’, it only recovered less than half. To put it bluntly, she was so weak that Su Ming could beat her in terms of force once.

“…”

Lips. Looks soft.

It smells great too.

So, do you really want to fulfill your promise?

“Clap.”

Su Ming lit a cigarette and took a puff.

“Do you really understand what the promise I made before means?”

“Representative, big brother, do you like Xiaoyou?”

She tilted her head and smiled.

“The promise means that I will try my best to treat you as a woman. Not a sister. Not an acquaintance. It is a pure possessiveness. It represents a bondage. If you want to stay with me in the future, you can no longer play pranks on humans out of curiosity. It is a very troublesome thing.”

“……oh.”

Did she really understand?
“Okay then. I’ll keep my word and try to treat you like a normal woman from now on. But… I can only start with the simplest things.”

“…”

Su Ming held her small, white hand. He felt a little embarrassed to be stared at with such a blank expression.

After all, I promised it myself.

But now I really can’t do anything. I don’t feel anything at all. Isn’t this just a girl who occasionally plays pranks?
“…”

See it.

I won’t be shy to hold your hand. I’ll just be confused… huh?

“Xia You?”

“…”

Not quite right.

Her cheeks were slightly flushed, and she was staring at the big and small hands put together.

“next time.”

“What?”

“Next time, big brother, keep your promise!”

“what?”

I saw her stand up quickly and run out without even bothering to put on her shoes.

Did you see it wrong?

She actually blushed? Was she running away?
Why?

2 month 4 day.

Night.

[I’m on a business trip. I’ll be back on the 8th and heading to Kyoto.]

An Shiyaoyao is really on a business trip.

Is it just a quarrel or is there really something wrong?

Probably not.

I just pushed a piece of clothing to her and asked her how she felt about it… After complaining about her poor taste, I said that if she wanted to buy it, she shouldn’t ask her, because asking wouldn’t be a gift.

Xia You never came back after she ran away.

“…”

But isn’t Xiao An a little weird?

I saw her walk towards the master bedroom unconsciously after taking a shower.

“Oh, yes… I sleep downstairs.”

“…”

I thought there was nothing special I could do, so I just followed her memories and reminisced about the past.

I specifically downloaded small games worth hundreds of KB, such as Metal Max, Dragon Ball Z and so on.

“Mr. Su Ming knows how to play this kind of game?”

“what?”

“Ah… I mean, I thought Mr. Su Ming only played games with very erotic skin. Oh… I mean, I forgot just now.”

“…”

Su Ming reached out and pinched her face.

“Mr. Su Ming?”

“…”

Explore further.

“…Um, what are you going to do?”

“…”

Too contrived.

Why did I feel like something was wrong from the moment Xiao An walked in? There was also something wrong with An Shiyao who sent the message.

It turns out that the prince was replaced by a cat.

What agreement did they reach?
Forget it. Since the two of them are interacting, it proves that their relationship is getting better faster than expected, which is a good thing.

2 month 4 day.

late at night.

I, An Shiyao, want to curse.

I cursed Mr. Su Ming harshly and called him a pervert.

On the TV screen, there are only two choices before me.

[Ignore her wishes and rape her]

[Obey her words and take off your clothes. ]

【…】

What kind of game is this!
What kind of bastard could make something like this?!
Moreover, the heroine’s name was changed to ‘An Shiyao’.

“Xiao An, you have to get used to it. You can face her directly from the beginning of the game.”

“She is actually very gentle and has a very good temper. She won’t get angry even if you tease her like this.”

“…”

Yes, I’m not angry.

Very generous.

My back teeth are about to break. I regret it. Why did I change them?

Although I know what she means, and I know that she intends to make friends with me. But, I have the same face as mine… am I so pitiful in front of Mr. Su Ming?
“Choose quickly.”

“…”

I pressed the x button on the controller.

The game’s lines changed instantly.

[An Shiyao: How could you…idiot, you have to take responsibility.]

【An Shiyao: Come again…】

“Did you choose **? You and Yao are very similar. She chose the same way.”

“…”

Who chose?!
Behind their backs, they were all plotting against me like this?!
Haven’t figured out who I am yet?
This kind of… makes me feel a little uncomfortable for some reason.

2 month 4 day.

late at night.

I discovered that Mr. Su Ming was acting.

Got it all.

Just like before, you know everything and you just want to see how touched I am when the truth is finally revealed, right?

2 month 5 day.

early morning.

I can’t resist because I have to maintain Xiao An’s personality.

“Can you massage my legs?”

“Oh, that’s right…massage your waist too.”

“…”

I can’t stand it anymore.

Step down hard.

“Mr. Su Ming obviously discovered it a long time ago!”

“What? What did you find?”

“Still playing dumb! I was wondering what kind of pervert would play that kind of game! Choosing the ** and clothes. And using my name!”

“Swear again.”

“abnormal!”

“…”

It’s not okay to maintain your personal image, and it’s not okay not to maintain your personal image either.

After all, I am still asked to serve him.

“What if I come to serve you, and you don’t want to?”

“Still talking! Shut up!”

I don’t want him to serve me.

I just kept staring at one spot and pressing it. I was very happy to be recognized at the first sight.

That is not service.

I just want to see me embarrassed.

“…”

Okay, I give in now. I’m going to lie down.

Why not start yet?
But I was really angry. She found me at the company and I watched her run away casually.

No action yet.

“Mr. Su Ming?”

Do you still want to continue bullying people?
“It’s okay. I just suddenly felt that… you seem to have become more beautiful.”

“?”

Why are you suddenly praising me without any reason?

“Since…I won’t say anything until I say something nice. Just say more.”

If you want to exchange identities with me, if it were in the past, I might refuse, right?

But I’m also afraid.

Someone said that Mr. Su Ming was dead, and I stood there not knowing what to do.

Extremely worried.

It’s better this way, just like what was said in the game we just played, big… ah, no. How did I become like this? No, no, no, I don’t know what NTR means, and I don’t know what those lines mean.

I am also very pure.

2 month 5 day.

early morning.

A long-lost text box appeared in front of Su Ming, and he was a little dazed.

【mission completed】

[Returning to reality, results will be calculated later]

[An unfixable BUG has been detected. It will not affect the player experience and will be automatically ignored this time. ]

【…】

In the end, the mission was still accomplished?
“If I hadn’t recognized you at first sight, I might have really gotten angry.”

“You gave it away the moment you changed your shoes. Xiao An isn’t particularly used to wearing high heels.”

“So… between me and her, who looks better in high heels?”

“…”

“Hmm…what are you saying? Really…”

Even if he did nothing, Su Ming knew that An Shiyao would not really dwell on this issue.

so.

【Results settlement completed】

[This trial score is 97, excellent. ]

[The reward ‘save’ has been issued. Please note that this ability can easily cause mental problems in players. When the side effects are huge, the game will automatically overwrite the save and not display it. ]

[The player has passed all standard trial levels]

[The game version will be upgraded to the official version 1.0 as the player progresses]

[It is expected that the upgrade will be completed after 729:59:58. Players can then view more game content and confirm some new agreements.]

Rewards, archive?
This is really considered “God”, right?
Just save a file now and you can come back here anytime.

So, could the archive… have something to do with Xiao An’s situation? If everything is destined.
