The next morning, Aili's biological clock woke her up promptly.
Aili, who habitually wanted to go back to sleep for a bit, planned to turn over.
However, she found herself restrained by something, unable to turn over.
And she felt that the thing restraining her also had a temperature.
Aili opened her eyes in confusion and looked to the side.
A particularly mature-looking face was right there, close at hand.
Aili also remembered that she was sleeping in Himeko's room.
Last night, after she washed up, she went straight to sleep. When she was sleeping, Himeko was still washing up.
It was just that Aili was now awake, but Himeko was still not awake. Aili also felt bad directly waking Himeko up. After all, in Aili's current view, no one should disturb her sleep, so she would not actively disturb others' sleep.
Aili maintained this posture. She slept very honestly; she basically looked the same when she woke up as she did when she fell asleep.
She really didn't expect that Sister Himeko, who looked very mature and steady, would have the habit of holding something while sleeping.
Fortunately, this situation didn't last long; the alarm clock by the bed rang.
After hearing the alarm clock, Himeko slowly woke up.
Seeing Himeko open her eyes, Aili smiled and greeted her, "Sister Himeko, good morning."
Himeko was still a bit groggy. She hugged Aili and rubbed against her again, then reached out to turn off the alarm and released Aili, sitting up. "Good morning..."
Himeko's voice got stuck. She stared blankly at Aili, then reacted after a while. After yawning, she said, "Good morning, Aili. How did you rest last night?"
"I rested very well. Sister Himeko doesn't need to worry about my sleep." Aili also sat up, then stretched and took off her pajamas, beginning to put on her clothes.
Aili, who had already dressed, looked at Himeko, who was on the bed thinking about something. "Sister Himeko, don't you need to go to class today?"
"Ah, class." Hearing about class, Himeko sighed and then slowly put on her clothes.
Looking at Himeko like this, Aili sighed in her heart, thinking, sure enough, every worker is the same.
"Sister Himeko, I'll go downstairs first. You hurry up too. I can already smell the breakfast!" Saying that, Aili opened the door and walked out.
She just needed to simply wash her face in the bathroom at the end of the corridor. After all, she didn't have her own toiletries yet. She could go buy them today...
After walking out of the bathroom, Aili suddenly remembered that she... seemed to have no money!
The family in the data she edited was rich, but it wasn't her money; it was the money of those cheap adoptive parents. She didn't bring a single cent when she went out!
Could it be that Aili had to find a bank and then hack into it to withdraw money? No, Aili didn't like such troublesome things.
To withdraw money from a bank without leaving any trace would be a huge project.
But after a while, Aili forgot about this matter.
"Wow, Mei, is breakfast so rich? It seems Aili is going to have a feast!" Aili looked at the food already on the dining table, walked to the kitchen door, and said to Mei inside.
Looking at Aili at the kitchen door, Mei's eyes darted away a bit. Yesterday was too embarrassing; she actually cried loudly in someone's arms and even fell asleep from crying in someone's arms.
"Good morning, Miss Aili. Breakfast will be ready soon. You can wait a moment at the dining table." Mei took a deep breath and then said calmly.
"Why are you still calling me Miss Aili? You should call me Aili, come on, you should call me Aili"
Seeing Mei standing there motionless, holding the porridge, Aili directly walked in and took the porridge from Mei's hand. "You should call me Aili, come on, call me Aili"
"Aili." Mei called out softly.
"Hi hi hi~ Aili is here!" After hearing that, Aili walked out of the kitchen with the porridge.
Mei, still in the kitchen, watched Aili walk out, then immediately covered her face and squatted on the ground, constantly muttering to herself, she already had Kiana, she already had Kiana, she already had Kiana.
After calming down for a while, Mei walked out of the kitchen with the cutlery.
But seeing Aili's smile by the dining table, she still couldn't help but turn her head away.
After placing the cutlery on the dining table, "Miss Aili..."
"Hmmph~"
"Aili, you wait here for a moment. I'll go up and call Kiana and the others." Saying that, Mei directly fled.
Aili chuckled a few times, looking at Mei who was quickly going upstairs.
The originally somewhat hurried footsteps became even more hurried.
Aili was very much looking forward to her future life, being with these people she liked.
She didn't know how long this peaceful life would last, but Aili would definitely try her best to prevent those things from happening, so Aili still needed to become stronger.
Not long after Mei went upstairs, Himeko came downstairs, yawning.
Aili was sitting in a position where she could see the stairs. When Himeko saw Aili, she said, "Good morning, Miss Aili. How did you sleep last night?" After saying that, Himeko regretted it a bit. What was she saying?
"Mm-hmm, I slept very well. But Sister Himeko can just call me Aili. You don't need to add Miss!" Aili said, propping her face with her hand.
Himeko just nodded, then picked a random seat and sat down.
Looking at the breakfast, which was more abundant than usual, Himeko directly picked up the cutlery and started serving breakfast. "Aili, you don't have to wait for them to come down to eat together, otherwise, after a while, when Kiana comes down..." Himeko didn't know what she thought of, and she sped up her serving action.
Bronya also slowly came downstairs from upstairs, her face expressionless, making it impossible to read her emotions.
"Good morning, Bronya."
"Good morning." Bronya took the spoon Himeko handed her and began to serve rice into her bowl.
After Bronya finished serving, she handed the spoon to Aili.
Aili took it and also started serving herself.
When all three had started eating, the voices of Kiana and Mei came from upstairs.
"Mei! Let me sleep a little longer! Just a little! I don't want to get up! The quilt is so warm, why do you want me to leave it~" Kiana's wailing came from upstairs.
"No! Look at the time! You just said five more minutes, and now five minutes have passed, you must get up!" Mei's voice sounded particularly strong at this time.
"But, but Mei, I really don't want to get up, let me sleep a little longer~"
"No, in a little while, the food will get cold. Hurry up and get up to eat."
Then there was no sound from upstairs.
