Chapter 1423: Chapter 418: Trembling with Killing Intent

"Wha... what do you mean? Yan... Yan... Yan..."

The bread fell as Bai Yi’s lips trembled wildly, her words stammering incoherently.

"Ka ka ka..."

A huge oppressive force burst from her, and simultaneously, the world line Yan Huan’s golden cat eyes were observing suddenly became chaotic.

He watched helplessly as the world lines approaching him started showing the exact same symptoms, indicating the signs of collapse.

Yan Huan’s eyes narrowed, and with the golden observer adjusting the time axis, he immediately discovered that Sakuragi Hitomi and Ye Shiyu’s world lines also began to collapse on July 1st.

July 1st again...

"Calm down, meow!"

Realizing the seriousness of the situation, Yan Huan immediately panicked, and lunged toward Bai Yi, frantically slapping her pretty face with his paw pads, trying to wake her up,

"It’s just a guess, a guess, meow!!"

"A... a guess?"

Upon hearing this, both the modifier and the timeline seemed to stabilize a bit.

The world lines of the two people, which showed signs of disintegration, also gradually solidified, except for his, which remained the same.

And Bai Yi’s beautiful eyes looked at the cute cat right in front of her and swallowed hard.

"..."

Meeting his gaze for a second, Yan Huan looked away and whispered,

"Only about a ninety percent chance, meow..."

"Doesn’t that mean you know?!"

Bai Yi grabbed Yan Huan by the neck, her face flushed.

At the same time, her modifier once again became restless, accompanied by her rapid-fire words launching an all-out verbal offensive against Yan Huan,

"You, you, you... Yan Ye, what do you mean he might realize the indifference and Time Stop? Does it mean he might know what I did when I activated those things?"

"Uh..."

"Then... then I... When I activated indifference and Time Stop to lift his shirt and touch his abs and chest, did he... did he know everything?!"

Do you realize how absurd this sounds?!

Yan Huan was shaken by Bai Yi’s shaking, feeling dizzy, and at this moment, there was still a hint of regret in his heart...

Only, it was a bit of regret for telling her about this.

"And the time I tried to protect his waistband and still failed, he must know about that too?!"

Yes, he knows.

"...I’m not sure, meow."

[Wow, easily fooled!]

"Aaaaah... then what kind of image do I actually have in front of Yan Huan?! Don’t tell me, he always sees me as a comedic girl or... a clown or something?"

A pufferfish (authentic).

Hm?

But come to think of it, why hasn’t the modifier continued to worsen suddenly?

While Yan Huan was puzzled, the Bai Yi in front of him stopped eating her bread, stopped drinking her drink, and instead, grabbed her hair in distress,

"No wonder... no wonder... he was clearly my fan before, but after I took the initiative, he never confessed anything to me...

"Could it be, he was scared by my superpower look... sniff... that’s not the real me, Yan Huan!"

Huh?

It seems...

By being a fan, she inexplicably connected the logic back around!!

Yan Huan’s eyes widened, full of shock.

Is this the reward for being honest?!

Seeing this, Yan Huan had no choice but to wag his tail and continue to conciliate,

"Rest assured, meow, even if he had resistance, that’s all in the past.

"Now that I’ve upgraded your modifier, he can’t clearly see your actions, at most just realizing you’ve activated an effect, meow!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Yi’s previous pitiful expression suddenly lit up, and even her modifier thoroughly calmed down.

"Really?"

"Mm-hmm... that’s why I’m reminding you, don’t use methods like this tomorrow, meow."

"Sniff..."

Bai Yi sniffed, looking at Yan Huan.

Then, she picked up the fallen bread from the table, pouted, blew on it, and was about to eat it.

"Pa!"

Yan Huan swatted it away with his tail, complaining,

"Eating it after it’s fallen on the ground?"

"A little dirt won’t hurt, no harm in eating it..."

Bai Yi glared at Yan Huan, reluctantly, but she didn’t pick up the bread that had fallen again.

Apparently, she’d probably done this more than once before.

It’s hard to tell that Bai Yi, such a starry-eyed beautiful girl, has such a habit...

"To prepare for tomorrow, instead of using an ambulance approach. However, I sensed the power of the index finger at that time; just stopping the ambulance, the index finger might not easily relent."

"Index finger?"

"It’s Ye Shiyu’s modifier, meow..."

"Oh..."

Bai Yi took a bite of bread and then a sip of her drink, unconsciously showing a smile...

When she eats something delicious she seems to act this way... In the if-line before, when she ate a late-night snack made by Ye Shiyu, she would even dance around.

"It’s okay, meow, I’ll think of something for you at that time."

"Okay～"

Bai Yi continued eating her bread, blinking at the little cat in front of her, then suddenly said,

"Yan Ye... It’s really great to have you here, thank you for helping me."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Yan Huan paused slightly.

Instead of responding to the matter, he asked,

"Yan Huan probably knew about the modifier early on, yet acted as if he didn’t know anything in front of you to fool you, aren’t you angry, meow?"

"Hmm, why would I be angry?"

"Meow?"

Bai Yi covered her face, a small blush peeking out from between her fingers,

"When I think about it, if my idol, who I’ve always admired, had that kind of power and did those strange things to me, I would have run away a long time ago!"

As she spoke, she became more excited, drawing her final conclusion,

"And since Yan Huan never said anything, hasn’t left... doesn’t that just show he really likes me!!"

"..."

Upon hearing this, Yan Huan was completely dumbfounded.

His mouth agape, the cat was shocked, not knowing what to say for a moment.
