The next day, the sun hung high in the sky.

“Hmph—!”

Li Andy, who had stayed up too late last night, woke up in a disheveled state from his bed.

He instinctively touched his bruised neck with one hand and supported his aching lower back with the other.

“Hiss… that was ruthless!”

He stiffly twisted his neck to look at his sister, who was sleeping soundly in Sophia’s arms, and a hint of fear actually arose in his heart.

Too ruthless!

When that girl got serious, she would endure the pain to make him pay, even if it meant swelling and abrasion.

If Sophia hadn't come to mediate with her words, he would have likely had to choose between being choked unconscious and abandoning his sanity to overdraw his Mad Blood.

No…

Once this matter is resolved, I need to find a way to get a relic that can steadily enhance my physique.

The right to speak in the family must be firmly held in my own hands!

Li Andy tiptoed as he pulled back the covers, carefully escaping the room.

Upon reaching the door, he immediately saw Jasmine squatting in the center of the corridor, her legs pressed together.

“Brother…”

She slowly looked up, her cheeks slightly flushed, and her two eyes rotated asynchronously, as if two souls were controlling them separately.

“How’s your state?” Li Andy raised an eyebrow, asking.

“It’s okay… but… not for too long… at the latest… tomorrow…”

Jasmine replied intermittently in several different tones.

“That’s enough, thank you for your hard work.”

Li Andy rubbed her head.

Jasmine forced a somewhat tired smile, then slowly closed her eyes.

She hadn't slept all night, with her various personalities constantly rotating.

At this moment, she seemed to be resting, but in reality, her eyeballs were still rapidly rotating beneath her eyelids.

Li Andy let out a soft breath, bent down, picked Jasmine up, and placed her on the bed. After cleaning the stains from her clothes, he quickly went to the study and locked himself inside.

He was about to go to the Forgetfulness Bookstore, and he had one last preparation to make—the memory anchor points of himself and his sisters.

Time passed, and by noon, when he pushed open the study door, he saw his three sisters who had been waiting for a long time.

“Brother…”

Youxi had already calmed down by this time, and her gaze towards him carried apology and concern.

Li Andy rubbed the tip of his nose, looking at her pitiful appearance, still a little unsteady and needing Sophia’s help to support her. His heart softened slightly, and he decided to temporarily put aside last night’s contest.

Then, under the curious gazes of his sisters, he took out four rings.

“These are rings I specially made, one for each of you.”

He said seriously,

“After you put them on, you must remember that the person who possesses this ring is a close companion.”

“And I promise you, after we come out, you can use this ring to make any wish that I can fulfill!”

“Why?” Sophia was stunned.

“Don’t ask anything now.”

Li Andy blinked, replying mysteriously, “Consider this a gift I want to give you, a gift to thank you for always accompanying me.”

Sophia frowned slightly, somewhat skeptical:

“Really? Anything? What if I want…”

She was about to ask her wish but was covered by Li Andy’s hand over her mouth.

“Shh—, don’t say it yet, tell me after we come out. You can take your time to think carefully this afternoon.”

After Li Andy finished speaking, he slowly released her mouth.

Sophia pursed her lips, and she didn’t know what she thought of, her small face slightly flushed, somewhat shy but extremely serious as she stared at him:

“I understand… Then you, you can’t go back on your word!”

“Mhm, I will never go back on my word!” Li Andy replied very decisively.

Sophia hesitated for a moment, then extended her finger:

“Pinky promise!”

Li Andy was stunned for a moment, then smiled helplessly, and seriously extended his finger, hooking it with that soft, moist spring bud.

Then, he looked at the other two:

“Not just Sophia, but you two as well.”

Youxi and Jasmine exchanged glances, then also extended their hands.

At this moment, four little fingers intertwined like a knot; four fists were connected.

Looking down from above, it resembled a connected four-leaf clover.

Feeling the warmth transmitted from their fingers, the four people’s heartbeats inexplicably quickened. After silently looking at each other for a few seconds, they all smiled faintly at the same time.

“Brother, you help me put on the ring.”

“Jasmine too.”

“Me… me too.”

For the rest of the time, the few of them no longer prepared anything nervously.

Instead, they chatted leisurely and talked.

Just like close family who had lived together for decades.

Simple, yet incredibly beautiful.

As evening approached, the four linked arms and walked side by side towards the academy.

When they arrived at the Library, the setting sun was just right.

The elongated shadows of the bookshelves resembled a hazy, shifting forest.

In the forest, besides Irene and Eric, who had been waiting for a long time, there was also a “female student” pretending to have forgotten the time, abandoned in a corner and asleep.

Li Andy curled his lips, and his spirituality released from his shadow.

The next second, all the books on the shelves flew out in unison, circling majestically like migratory birds at dusk.

The “female student” in the corner immediately woke up, looking at the constantly changing scenery around her, and finally realized the seriousness of the problem.

“This is a trap! These madmen!”

She transformed into a blood shadow and rushed towards the window.

“Ping—!”

The glass shattered, but the scenery outside was still the bookshelf forest.

Her reaction was quick, but it was still too late.

An unknown domain had already enveloped her.

The entire world seemed like a disordered kaleidoscope, flipping and segmenting everyone.

Everyone instinctively looked up and saw others standing in the sky as if gravity had reversed.

Gradually, they began to forget their purpose, and their eyes gradually became confused.

The kaleidoscope slowly rotated, and the world shifted with the light and shadow, blurring and engulfing everyone like a phantom dream pieced together from memories.

【Forgetful Bookstore, lost in memories】

【Will you still remember them?】
