The bright moon hung high in the sky, casting its shimmering light to illuminate the tranquil night.
March 7th gently pushed open Bochang's bedroom door.
She then slowly closed it, ensuring minimal sound escaped.
Without turning on the lights, March 7th relied on the faint moonlight streaming through the window, cautiously stepping forward until she quickly reached the bedside.
The subtle noises could not escape Bochang's keen ears; startled from his sleep, he instantly opened his eyes.
There stood the pink-haired girl silently beside his bed.
The corner of Bochang's eye twitched as he asked, "March? Didn't I lock the door? How did you get in?"
"Not your concern," March 7th replied evasively.
Bochang didn't dwell on it. "Alright... so what brings you here?"
"Can't I just come see your room without any reason?" March 7th countered, adopting a confrontational demeanor.

[Option Four: Overpower March 7th - Completion Reward: March 7th's Big Booty.]
The appearance of these options momentarily stunned Bochang.
Regardless of affirming or denying, or even overpowering her, all would lead to getting beaten up.
His only viable choice was Option Three.
I understand now; March 7th is here to cause trouble. I must take control and not let her dictate the situation.
Option Three.
Having made his decision, Bochang lifted the quilt and invited, "March, since you're already here... why don't we sleep together?"
"Ah? That...that doesn't seem quite right."
March 7th was taken aback by this unexpected hospitality, her prepared speech evaporating instantly.
Bochang continued, "We've shared a bed multiple times before, so what's there to worry about? Come on."
"I'm definitely not afraid," March 7th declared, placing one hand on her hip, but her confidence wavered slightly.
The pink-haired girl wore only a thin white nightgown, her cheeks slightly flushed, and a faint glow emanated from her entire body, captivating attention effortlessly.
Bochang gently patted the empty space beside him, gesturing for March 7th to join him on the bed.
After hesitating for a few seconds, she obediently climbed onto the bed and lay down next to Bochang.
"She actually came up..." Bochang's heart raced with excitement.
[Reward distribution in progress - Congratulations! You have received the item 'Yogurt', just an ordinary box of yogurt.]
Ignoring the system's voice, Bochang turned on his side, focusing all his attention on March 7th. The lovely maiden lay flat on her back, clutching the blanket tightly with both hands, eyes firmly closed.
From her breathing alone, it was clear that March 7th was equally nervous.
This was their first time sleeping together alone, without Stelle or Bailu present during previous instances.
But now...
It was just Bochang and March 7th.
The atmosphere suddenly became charged with subtle tension.
Bochang silently gazed at the pink-haired girl, savoring this moment of tranquility. Even simply observing her, he found it unexpectedly enjoyable.
"Don't be nervous, March 7th, remember why you're here."
Taking several deep breaths.
March 7th slowly opened her eyes.
Bochang thought to himself, "This time, it's undoubtedly about Stelle again. How should I explain this?"
[Dating Options activated.]
[Option 1: Embrace March 7th and say, "March... having trouble sleeping? Let me hold you." - Completion Reward: Random Skill.]
[Option 2: Do nothing - Completion Reward: A Big Booty from March 7th.]
[Option 3: Overpower March 7th - Completion Reward: A Big Booty from March 7th.]
"It seems there's no need for explanations after all..."
"Option 1."
There was hardly any hesitation needed.
With his decision made, as soon as March 7th slightly parted her lips, Bochang swiftly wrapped his arms around her, placing one foot over hers, and said, "March... can't sleep? Then let me hold you."
He gently embraced March 7th with one arm around her waist.
Bochang leaned closer, inching towards her.
Initially intending to speak, March 7th's mind went blank, making conversation impossible; her body stiffened like a wooden doll, yet remained softly yielding beneath Bochang's touch.
"He's...he's holding me now. What is he going to do next?" March 7th remained motionless, seemingly tacitly accepting Bochang's actions.
The intimate atmosphere intensified further.
Even the room's temperature seemed to rise significantly, making both feel inexplicably parched and restless.

"Just when I thought it was some aphrodisiac...now it turns out to be a human-form aphrodisiac!"
Bochang's breath momentarily hitched.
March 7th, still dazed, clutched tightly onto the blanket as she felt his large hands gently grasp her waist, causing her cheeks to flush even more deeply.
However, Bochang made no further advances.
As time passed...
March 7th gradually regained her composure and muttered, "You're such a scoundrel."
"I'm not a scoundrel; I'm just a good guy," Bochang replied, leaving March 7th speechless and unsure what to say next.
After a moment...
"Tell me honestly, are you already dating Stelle?"
"Hmm..." Bochang didn't lie.
Hearing this response, March 7th felt a sudden tightness in her chest.
"You scoundrel," she repeated.
Bochang said nothing, merely continuing to hold the pink-haired girl without any intention of letting go.
March 7th gazed at the ceiling, her tone filled with resentment.
"Couldn't you have just lied to me?"
"For something like this... I don't think lying is appropriate; eventually, you would see through it anyway."
The system showed no signs of intervening. Left on his own, Bochang hoped he wouldn't inadvertently step on any emotional landmines.
"You're right... So, everything you said before, was all lies?" March 7th's gaze seemed to grow distant and vacant.
Bochang noticed this clearly.
"What exactly did I say?" Bochang couldn't recall, but he also couldn't ask March 7th for clarification, so he simply replied, "No, I didn't lie to you."
Under normal circumstances, Bochang refrained from deceiving others.
"You heartless jerk." A hint of sobbing crept into March 7th's voice.
With his free hand, Bochang gently stroked her pink hair, comforting her, "Alright, alright, I'm a heartless jerk."
Just as he finished speaking,
March 7th turned around, pushed Bochang away, and straddled him at the waist. Leaning over, she pinned him down and whispered into his ear, exhaling softly, "Then I'll be a heartless jerk too."
