Logically speaking, for the Herrscher of Reason, repairing something should be a matter of a moment, but for the very angry Bronya, it seems that she subconsciously forgot about it.
After giving the instructions to the bunny, Bronya went out.
"Strange, why didn't Seele come to play with Bronya today?"
Without the allure of the game, Duck, walking down the corridor, finally began to ponder this question again.
Since there was no answer for the time being, she put the question aside and started thinking about her next steps.
"I've got it! After we see Seele, we'll go to that dessert shop outside the base together!"
Because she's been quite 'busy' lately, Bronya hasn't done much since 'reclaiming Seele'.
After all, as the Herrscher of Reason, my training time is quite tight.
Therefore, although Seele and Bronya were often together for the past two weeks, they were mostly in the cafeteria, training ground, or playing games in their room.
As for dessert shops, they mostly offer takeout.
Although there's not much difference between taking it out and not taking it out.
But when it comes to desserts, it's definitely better to eat them fresh from the oven at a dessert shop for a more delicious and atmospheric experience, right?
While that guy's away, it's a good time to catch up on this progress~
Of course, it doesn't really matter whether you supplement it or not.
After all, Seele already knows that Bronya is the real Bronya, so how could Jiang Qiao, that imposter who was just filling in, possibly receive any more affection from Seele?
Instead of worrying about anything else, Bronya was thinking about whether she should say a good word for Jiang Qiao on her behalf—in fact, that's what she did after winning over Seele.
Although Jiang's behavior was infuriating, it is a fact that he did help Bronya save Seele.
Out of gratitude, Miss Duck, who was certain of victory, naturally didn't mind showing the attitude of a victor and giving some 'benevolent charity'.
This is the lingering aura of the strong!
The advantage lies with me! The advantage lies with....
"hope....."
Upon crossing the intersection and seeing a familiar face, Bronya was instantly delighted and greeted them.
However, the next moment, when she noticed the familiar person next to Seele, her expression froze—especially when she saw Seele holding the latter's arm in an extremely intimate manner and pressing against the latter's body.
In the past, that was a privilege almost exclusively reserved for Bronya.
"Ah, it's Bronya."
"Um... Seele, what's going on here...?"
Miss Bronya, who was originally full of confidence, looked rather bad at this moment. She looked at the two of them with great difficulty. Although she really wanted to express her 'anger', she couldn't raise her voice at all because Seele was in front of her.
The only thing one can do is stare and silently question this development.
This...this isn't right!
Seele, that guy is Jiang Qiao! I'm your Bronya sister!
Subconsciously, she glanced down at herself, wondering if she had somehow been 'requisitioned' again, but it was clear that Xi'er was holding Jiang Qiao, not being deceived by her appearance...
Could it be... hypnosis, cognitive manipulation, or something like that? Recalling the things she had seen online by chance, and looking at Seele, who was holding Jiang Qiao's arm so naturally, Bronya's suspicions grew stronger.
After this process of divergent thinking, Jiang Qiao was very open and honest.
"Yeah, we just came back from the dessert shop. We didn't expect to run into you."
"Yes, yes, the new mango pudding at that dessert shop is really delicious, Bronya... Ah, I'm sorry, Seele was going to bring one back for Bronya, but... I forgot."
Watching Seele excitedly describe the deliciousness of the dessert, followed by a hint of frustration and apology, Bronya, thinking about her earlier plan, laughed in a way that looked more like crying, but could only manage a forced smile and say:
"...It's okay, Bronya has been controlling her diet lately."
Of course—secretly, Miss Bu Langya's anger level was rising sharply, to the point that her gaze towards Jiang Qiao revealed a faint 'killing intent'.
Bronya's cheeks puffed up rapidly, as if she wanted to bite the man in front of her to death. Her jaws clenched as if she wanted to crush even her back teeth.
This guy... we haven't seen each other for so long, and yet he came back and turned Seele into this...!
They've done something malicious! They definitely used some despicable means!
Bronya was relieved that Seele at least remembered her son, but after experiencing the embarrassment of the dessert world once again, her opinion of Jiang suddenly plummeted.
This guy can't beat Bronya in a head-on fight, so he resorts to underhanded tactics, huh?! That's utterly shameless!
Bronya must expose this guy's true colors and rescue Seele from his clutches!
Secretly, Duck made up her mind.
"Seele, Bronya has something she wants to talk to him about. Could we have some time alone together?"
"Uh... okay..."
Seele was a little confused, but after seeing Bronya's rather serious expression, she nodded very understandingly.
After the former left—
next moment.
"Boom-"
Bronya slammed Jiang Qiao against the wall with a dull thud.
She lowered her voice, looking annoyed:
"What kind of bewitching potion did you give Seele?!"
It's supposed to be a scene of a domineering CEO, but because of the height difference between them, the petite Bronya has to look up at Jiang Qiao, making the whole scene extremely comical.
Feeling somewhat embarrassed, Bronya's usually taciturn face flushed slightly, but she quickly suppressed her shyness and began her 'interrogation of the despicable Jiang'.
"...What are you talking about? A potion of infatuation?"
Looking at the duckling with its stern face, Jiang Qiao was a little confused, then suddenly realized and explained:
"Oh, you misunderstood. I just invited Kiana to the dessert shop."
Then he briefly recounted what had happened.
Bronya gritted her teeth.
Okay, Bronya said, "Why didn't Seele come to play with Bronya?"
So you intercepted it halfway there and took it by surprise!
And Kiana, that idiot...!
Aside from that, there doesn't seem to be much else worth noting. After all, judging from Jiang Qiao's words, their relationship is really 'simple'—they just went out for dessert together and came back together.
"Really?"
"Would I lie to you?"
Jiang Qiao looked completely innocent—"I, Jiang, am an honest man!"
Bronya was skeptical, and then—her eyes transformed into gears.
I don't believe you for a second! You're a really bad old man!
Whether it's true or not, I, Duck, will have to verify it myself!
While the authority of the Law of Reason is far inferior to that of the Law of Consciousness, who specializes in consciousness, in terms of 'lie detection,' its power of 'understanding' and 'deconstruction' is not entirely incapable of being applied to living beings.
But...it seems...he really wasn't lying...
Could it be that what he said is true, and Seele really wasn't hypnotized or had her common sense altered?
Bronya was very suspicious of this—if you don't play dirty tricks, then how did you get Seele to be so close to you?
Jiang Qiao smiled and shrugged:
"After all, I was her Bronya sister for a while~ Isn't it normal for Seele to like me?"
Bronya felt a toothache upon hearing this.
So you're saying this is Bronya's fault? Did Bronya dig her own grave?!
Bronya does not accept this result!
That being said, Miss Duck was in a bit of a dilemma at this moment.
After all, if you say that Jiang Qiao used 'despicable' means to win Xi'er's favor, then she would definitely be able to teach this guy a lesson.
But if it's a legitimate act, wouldn't deliberately targeting it make Bronya seem petty?
But leaving Jiang Qiao with Seele is definitely not an option. After all, how long has this guy been with Seele? He's already raised Seele's favorability to such a high level. If he gets any closer to Seele, Bronya seriously doubts whether Seele, whom she painstakingly 'snatched back,' will fall into this guy's hands again.
And this time it's different. This time it's not a loss in terms of being Bronya's sister, but a complete and one-sided defeat.
The image of Seele lying in Jiang Qiao's arms, holding a child with a kind expression, flashed through Bronya's mind, while she could only watch them from afar. Bronya couldn't help but shudder.
No way! (Allen face.JPG)
Stop it! It must be stopped!
Bronya racked her brains trying to come up with a way to avoid the worst possible outcome.
Finally, the genius Alloy Fang's eyes lit up, and he came up with a brilliant idea.
