activa-t Chapter 300 Egg
Chapter 300 Egg
An absurd idea popped into my head uncontrollably.
Bai Li quickly shook her head, banishing the unrealistic idea from her mind.
No, no.
impossible.
More and more fragments related to Shi Shui uncontrollably surfaced in her mind.
The pale, fragile boy in the hospital who needed her help.
Today, they are composed, confident, and world-class AI talents leading projects in national-level laboratories.
His growth trajectory is clearly visible, and as his sponsor and mentor, I seem to have witnessed his growth all the way.
Their relationship couldn't be purer...
But the more Bai Li tried to deny something, the more aggressively it came back to haunt her.
She couldn't help but recall more details.
When Shi Shui is facing herself, she occasionally feels awkward, her ears turn slightly red, and she hesitates several times as if she wants to say something but then stops herself...
"Hiss." Bai Li took a soft breath and murmured, "No way..."
Although a suspicion had formed in her mind, the more she thought about it, the more something seemed amiss.
But after a moment, Bai Li resolutely rejected the idea.
She was certain that Shi Shui's favorability rating had always been 69 points, never rising above the 70-point threshold.
As long as it doesn't reach 70 points, it's in the appreciation stage.
Only scores above 70 indicate liking.
So, you've been overthinking it.
Others might struggle, worry, or hesitate over uncertain feelings, but for her, who can check affection levels, it's nothing.
Bai Li even asked Xiao Hao again to make sure everything was perfect.
Feeling a little relieved, she leaned back against the smooth inside of the jacuzzi, the gentle flow of water gently massaging her body and further easing her tension.
"Hmm...it was all a false alarm," Bai Li sighed. "You scared yourself."
However, fate played a cruel trick on us.
Just then, a familiar notification sound rang out from the system's backend:
[Shi Shui's favorability +10]
[Shi Shui's Favorability: 79]
Bai Li was dumbfounded.
"Cough cough cough."
A series of faint coughs echoed from inside the bathroom.
Clearly, Bai Li was startled and choked by the sudden notification sound.
How much favorability points did I gain?
How could someone score over 70 points at such a coincidental time?
I was just affirming Shi Shui's pure feelings!
I didn't expect the slap in the face to come so quickly, and at such an inopportune time!
Moreover, 10 points were added at once, bringing the score to 79, just one step away from breaking through 80 points!
This impact was considerable for Bai Li, even causing her to choke on water.
One question after another kept popping up.
What happened over at Shishui?
What was he thinking?
Why were 10 points added suddenly?
Why now of all times?
When we met during the day, everything seemed fine, didn't it?
……
Bai Li was completely baffled.
She calmed herself down and decided not to pursue the matter any further.
Since I can't figure out the reason, I'll stop thinking about it.
The key question is how to deal with the "deterioration" of the relationship in the future?
In fact, besides Shi Shui, Bai Li also experienced other people's favorability ratings suddenly exceeding 70 points.
Her usual approach to such incidents is to pretend she doesn't know anything and just act as she normally would.
Unless it's explicitly stated or clearly said, Shirai will act as if nothing happened.
This time, however, the impact of Shi Shui on him was too great.
She used to think it was just youthful naiveté, or a sense of dependence and gratitude towards her "older sister".
but now……
Bai Li exhaled softly, the warm steam blurring her vision.
She closed her eyes again, quietly sorting out her chaotic thoughts amidst the gentle ripples of the water.
Sure enough, I wasn't just overthinking things.
Today's feng shui is a bit strange, and my feeling is right.
He's no longer the younger brother who needs my protection...
"So...that's how it is?" she murmured softly, her voice carrying a hint of emotion that even she herself hadn't quite grasped.
Strangely, she didn't feel the expected distress or rejection; instead, she felt a sense of understanding.
The warmth of the water enveloped my entire body, and also enveloped the complex and warm realization that had just been revealed in my heart.
Moonlight streamed through the frosted glass of the window, casting a hazy glow in the steamy bathroom.
At the edge of the light and shadow, a furry figure is quietly outlined.
Sanmao had sneaked in at some point and squatted by the jacuzzi, like a dutiful guard, intently watching over this human to prevent her from accidentally drowning.
Bai Li kept her eyes closed and didn't move for a long time.
Sanmao's beard twitched twice, and with a light leap, he gracefully jumped onto the edge of the bathtub, and without hesitation, slapped Baili on the forehead with his paw.
The sudden attack with a cat's claws shattered the tranquility of the room and stirred up the ripples in Bai Li's heart.
Bai Li was so frightened by Sanmao that she almost lost her mind.
When Sanmao saw that Baili had "come to life," he immediately jumped away nimbly to avoid getting water splashed on him, leaving only his chubby bottom facing Baili.
It returned to its previous position, slowly licking the water off its paws, its tail swaying leisurely from side to side, occasionally raising its head to check on Bai Li's condition.
Seeing its leisurely and carefree manner, Bai Li was furious.
You little rascal!
Knowing that Sanmao meant well, Baili, unable to truly get angry, felt even more frustrated.
Cut constantly, the rationale is still chaotic.
Let nature take its course...
Speaking of which... how did Sanmao manage to jump into such a tall jacuzzi?
Hmm...it seems you're controlling your weight quite well?
Bai Li rubbed her chin, remembering the plans she had put on hold for more than half a year because of her weight.
A dangerous glint flashed in Bai Li's eyes as she stared at the cat grooming itself.
"It's time...to consider getting an egg..."
--------------------------------
Bai Li opened her phone and sent a message to Zhang Yu.
After all, Sanmao consulted him about her sterilization problem, so it's only right that he sees it through to the end.
The chat history on my phone is from a long time ago.
Yes.
She and Zhang Yu hadn't talked for a long time.
Bai Li blushed slightly as she recalled the passionate scene on the plane to Country A last time.
At an altitude of 30,000 feet.
Clouds, golden sunlight, the distinct knuckles of a hand loosening a tie, the dampness at the collar of a cashmere sweater, an embrace during turbulent air currents...
She had never lost control like that before.
Even though I already had enough opposite-sex friends with an 80-point favorability rating, I still couldn't resist engaging in interactions that are usually reserved for lovers.
Bai Li sighed.
It's probably because I mentioned it myself on the plane, and that it was a one-time thing.
Zhang Yu, on the other hand, seemed to understand perfectly, and did not bring up any related topics again, maintaining a just-right distance as if nothing had ever happened, keeping his vow.
Previously, the two were both pet owners and would occasionally chat like friends.
But after that incident, their relationship became much more distant, and they gradually lost contact with each other.
"Teacher Zhang, Sanmao's weight has reached the target level..."
