Who is Playing the Love Development Game in Gundam

Returning home faster than usual, He Kui stepped into the house, where two young women awaited him. The aroma of a delicious meal filled the room, but even more enticing were the two figures in aprons, their bare skin revealing a captivating sight.

"Welcome back! Do you want to eat dinner first, take a bath, or… have me first?" Shi He teased, her soft lips delivering an iconic line from Eastern dramas, giving it an entirely different allure.

"How about I enjoy both at once?" He Kui replied smoothly, moving closer to gently wrap his arms around their delicate waists.

"Both at once? How?" Su Lei asked, feigning innocence but with a hint of curiosity.

"Like this," He Kui said, giving them a mischievous grin as he guided the two onto the large dining table.

"Isn't this… dirty?" Su Lei muttered with mild disapproval, while Shi He blushed but lay back, visibly embarrassed yet willing.

"Don't worry," He Kui assured her with a smile. "We can clean up afterward."

That evening, they shared a unique and indulgent meal, each satisfied in body and spirit.

He Kui's interactions with the two women soon showed a meaningful impact:

[Su Lei's Affection: 170] [Shi He Hanifus' Affection: 185] [You shared an unforgettable evening with them, enhancing your mutual bonds.] [Affection Boost +3+2] [Z Gundam (5,160/50,000)] [Research: Cellular-Level Nanobot Repair (6,120/50,000)] [Research: Field Modulation (7,603/20,000)]

However, while the affection points had risen, he realized something crucial: Su Lei's affection had been stalled at this level for some time now.

"Su Lei," he called out, holding her as she lay half-awake beside him.

"Mmm? What's up?" she murmured, still drowsy.

"Nothing..." He Kui paused, words forming in his mind, though he hesitated, doubting if it was right to say them merely to influence affection points. Ultimately, he decided to hold back.

"You're acting strange," she said, her brows knitting.

"Tell me, what does love mean to you?" he asked suddenly.

"What?" Su Lei blinked, jolting fully awake, startled by his question.

"Why are you asking that out of nowhere?" she asked, glancing at Shi He, who was peacefully asleep beside them.

"Well, I'm… uncertain, I guess?"

Su Lei thought for a moment before speaking. "Love is wanting to be with someone through everything. To support them, face challenges together, and, no matter the hardships, to never give up," she said with a gentle smile. "It's like how you, someone who values safety, would still come to protect me."

He Kui's heart stirred. "You're right. Love is exactly that."

Su Lei placed her hand over his heart, as if to feel the beat and confirm his feelings. "So, tell me, He Kui, do you love us?"

"Yes," he replied, his tone unwavering. "I love you both."

The moment brought clarity to him, and he felt a sense of purpose. The girls had become a vital part of his life, not due to any external system or motive, but because they were who they were — irreplaceable.

"Then that's all that matters," Su Lei said, her face softening into a smile. "I'm so happy we're together. Let's keep going, no matter what."

Together, they clasped hands, a new understanding shared between them.

The next morning, He Kui felt lighter, his doubts melting away. The recent struggles he'd faced had nearly made him forget his original purpose: to achieve a higher status and gain power, not only for himself but to protect those he loved.

With a renewed sense of direction, he stepped into the day with fresh resolve.

Later, when he met with Matthias, he noted that the familiar man was as calm as ever, offering a courteous greeting.

"Good day, Mr. He Kui," Matthias said with his usual refined demeanor.

"Good day," He Kui responded with a smile, glancing at the ever-composed young lady beside Matthias.

"Mr. He Kui, it's a pleasure," the young lady said with a polite curtsy before returning to her seat.

"To think you managed to achieve so much in such a short time," Matthias noted, unable to hide his surprise. "The news is, frankly, impressive."

"Just a small effort," He Kui replied modestly, though he took note of Matthias' reaction.

"So, Mr. He Kui, I take it you're open to a deeper collaboration with us?" Matthias inquired.

"Indeed, I am. And I believe you're interested in the same?"

Matthias nodded, "Very well. I do need a certain tool… Specifically, I'd like to acquire ten of those surveillance devices you've used. Of course, we're prepared to compensate you fairly."

He Kui nodded. "That can be arranged."

"How efficient. You certainly are a man of your word." Matthias noted.

After a brief negotiation, they agreed on a payment of ten million for each device. He Kui was more than pleased with the arrangement, which meant a generous profit.

"Now, onto two additional matters," He Kui said, shifting the conversation.

"Oh? What would those be?"

"Firstly, I'd like access to any intel you have on Rau Le Creuset."

"Ah, a challenging target, though I'll see what can be uncovered." Matthias hesitated before naming a price, "Thirty million."

"Fine," He Kui agreed. "Take it from the payment for the devices."

"Understood. And the second matter?"

"I'd like to borrow Miss Setona," He Kui stated with a confident smile.

"Excuse me?" Matthias and Setona both looked at him in surprise.

Their reactions filled the room with a moment of stunned silence, and He Kui could only offer a polite smile in response.
