Chapter 224 Even buttons?!

"This button..."

Lin Xiyue stared at the button and murmured to herself.

"What's wrong?!"

After hearing Lin Xiyue speak, Wenli nervously leaned over to ask.

"Hmm... how should I put it? Come and take a look."

Lin Xiyue didn't know how to describe it to Wenli, so she thought for a moment and pulled Wenli up, asking her to come to her side and look at the button together.

"Oh my god?!"

Wenli, standing next to Lin Xiyue, also noticed the crack in the button and couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

"I...I didn't touch it!"

Wenli hurriedly explained and took the button from him to examine it carefully.

"Could you tell me about this button?"

After returning the button to Wenli, Lin Xiyue glanced at the seemingly ordinary button somewhat casually.

Just then, Lin Xiyue witnessed an amazing scene—the button in Wenli's hand suddenly seemed to be under a spell, with several thin and soft threads slowly emerging from the middle.

These silk threads have a pale white color, but with a slight yellowish tint, as if they were traces left by time.

They resembled nimble little snakes, gracefully swaying as they slowly approached Wenli's fingers.

These threads did not cause Wenli any harm. On the contrary, they seemed unusually intimate and gentle, like lovers who had been separated for a long time, and eagerly wrapped around Wenli's fingers.

However, Wenli was just an ordinary person, and unless she had enormous energy or was in a near-death state, she would never be able to see these few strands of silk.

Lin Xiyue took in all of this, and a strange feeling welled up in her heart.

As she gazed at the scene of the silk threads intertwining with Wenli's fingers, she felt, for some reason, a slightly ambiguous and erotic atmosphere permeated the space.

This subtle feeling caused a blush to involuntarily rise on her cheeks when she saw these things.

“Meow~!!”

Meros, who had been lazy, suddenly cried out like a cat whose tail had been stepped on when he saw this scene, and then transformed back into human form at a speed that was imperceptible to the naked eye.

He pulled Lin Xiyue into his arms, preventing her from looking at the button any longer.

"???ヽ(?Д?)?"

"Has something happened?"

"Ah?! Who is this gentleman? When did he arrive? (|| ?Д?)"

Suddenly, a cat's meow reached Wenli's ears. She instinctively turned her head, her gaze instantly drawn to the scene before her.

A tall and handsome man was seen tightly embracing the shop manager, Lin Xiyue, in an extremely intimate manner.

The man was exceptionally handsome, like a work of art meticulously sculpted by a master sculptor. His deep, emerald-green eyes shone like stars, and beneath his high-bridged nose, his lips were slightly upturned, revealing a subtle, almost imperceptible smile.

However, when his gaze turned to Wenli, his previously gentle expression suddenly changed, becoming less friendly.

More precisely, his gaze fell directly on the small, exquisite button in Wenli's hand, as if there was something wrong with that tiny button.

"(⊙o⊙)...Um, is there a problem with this?"

Wenli, somewhat timidly, held up the button in her hand and asked.

"Don't frighten the guests, please move aside."

Lin Xiyue, her face full of black lines, pushed away Molos, who was hugging her tightly, and said with some disgust.

"But you just saw something filthy, that stuff was used to flirt in public, it's so shameless!"

The somewhat sharp look in Melos's eyes when he looked at Wenli softened abruptly when he saw Lin Xiyue, and his words became somewhat aggrieved.

"But you can't... no, wait, wait a minute! Did I hear that right? What did you just say?! っ?Д?)っ"

Lin Xiyue was initially focused on pushing Moros away, so she didn't notice what Moros was saying.

As a result, she only realized it when she was almost able to read it aloud, and asked Meros in disbelief.

"Tsk, baby, you heard me right."

"I mean, he, in public—public—admiration—"

Melos first confirmed the question Lin Xiyue wanted to ask, and then slowly and deliberately uttered those words.

"???!ah?(((;???;)))"

Lin Xiyue looked at Molos, then at the button in Wenli's hand, somewhat incredulous.

"What? What do you mean, in public? Well, what happened? There aren't just the three of us here, maybe with the little girl who came to serve tea earlier? Nobody here can be a 'heartbreaker'?"

Wenli was even more confused. She couldn't see anything, she only heard the few words that Moros said, and she was dumbfounded.

She even looked around and found that there were indeed only four of them, and three of them were women, with only one man, and one of them was even a child.

"Tsk."

When Melos saw that the button was still wrapping around Wenli's fingers even more tightly, he couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement.

"give it to me."

After thinking for a moment, Melos reached out his hand to Wenli and asked her to hand him the button.

"Huh? Oh, oh, oh. ∑(′△｀)?!"

Wenli was a little confused, but she still handed the button to Moros.

Meros took the mysterious button, and as he held it in his hand, the thin threads that had been extending from the button seemed to be under a spell, quickly retracting and disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye, as if they had never existed.

Melos lifted the button and examined it closely under the bright light.

After some trial and error, he found the perfect angle from which the crack could be clearly seen.

In his eyes, the tiny crack resembled a secret passage hidden in the darkness, quietly waiting for someone to explore its depths.

Immediately afterwards, Meros gently blew on the crack in the button, but he clearly felt that the seemingly transparent crack could not actually be passed through.

After a moment of contemplation, Meros slowly raised his palm, and a faint light began to flicker in his palm, gradually gathering into a dazzling ball of energy.

Then, using his superb skills, he slowly twisted this ball of energy into an extremely fine thread, as light and strong as spider silk.

Once everything was ready, Meros focused intently on guiding the energy line toward the crack in the button.

"Kacha kacha——"

The moment the energy line touched the crack, a series of crisp "crackling" sounds suddenly rang out.

The sound was unusually loud, even somewhat shrill, like an alarm sounded when some ancient mechanism was triggered.

With that strange clicking sound, Lin Xiyue and Wen Li were astonished to see that the button had automatically folded in half along the seam. The whole process was as smooth and natural as flowing water, leaving them speechless.

"!! Ah! My button!!!"

As soon as Wenli finished speaking, she saw a piece of text suddenly projected from the gap where the button had broken off.

[Fellow tribesmen, what are you trying to do?]
