Shi Ya's petite, rounded earlobes unconsciously perked up, listening to the sounds around her—
Ji You didn't make a sound or any other gesture; she just stared at the gift box in her hand, carefully examining it.
1 second.
2 seconds.
3 seconds.

Somehow, the atmosphere around them started to become oppressive.
The air pressure also gradually lowered.
Shi Ya focused on assembling the Mecha parts.
Ji You focused on the gift from Senior Shi Ya.
…
After a while.
