An internal struggle.

In the end, the last vestiges of curiosity and playfulness within the true loli's body managed to overcome her pride and academic dignity.

She gave a very slight "humph," seemingly with a hint of disdain.

Her little face wore a disdainful expression that said, "How childish, I'm not interested," but her fair little hand very honestly and silently reached for the plate containing the "bubble cookies."

Then quickly pinched up the smallest piece.

With lightning speed, it was stuffed into her little mouth, while she pretended to stare seriously at the workbook in front of her and chewed it in small movements.

Then, while the three people around her were laughing at each other's comical bubble bursts, she secretly and carefully puffed out her pink cheeks and gently, tentatively blew out a breath—

She blew out a tiny bubble, only the size of a ping-pong ball, but with a perfectly shaped and adorable appearance.

The bubble lasted for a few seconds, then popped with a soft "pop".

Ai quickly lowered her head, pretending that nothing had happened.

She simply picked up her pen and continued writing and drawing in her notebook, as if she hadn't been the one secretly blowing bubbles just moments before.

Yuzuru caught this scene out of the corner of his eye, a knowing smile playing on his lips, but he didn't say anything.

He simply picked up another cookie, blew a steady bubble, and then leisurely leaned back on the sofa armrest, watching the scene before him—Mingmei and Junhui were laughing and comparing whose bubble was rounder, while a certain arrogant scientist was doing his homework with a "bitter and resentful" expression, secretly enjoying the fun of the cookie and the childish game of blowing bubbles.

Well, homework and such can wait.

Being childish like this once in a while... doesn't seem so bad?

At least, the low atmosphere and resentment in the living room caused by homework have been largely dispelled by these silly pink bubbles that keep being created and bursting.

It seems that whether it's a young female scientist or a deity...

We all need a little childish fun now and then to spice things up.

(Wow, I've already reached two million words without even realizing it.)

When I reached one million words, I was in the dark room; when I reached two million words, I was still in the dark room. Back and forth, going about my business, in the end, it was just the little author and all the big names celebrating here alone.

The young author is fantastic!
