As Barrett Walk carried the items in his hands, Little Tiger Girl sneered all the way, "So this is what you invited us to eat! These vegetarian dishes are so little, they're not even enough to fill a tooth gap."
Back turned to the two of them, Barrett Walk had spent almost all his money on the food here. He hadn't expected this little girl to be so dissatisfied, as if he were a big shot! But he didn't turn around to argue or refute anything. At least he had tried his best, and this meal could be considered a reward for himself. Despite being a mech combatant, he had still managed to enter the War God Academy.
"Ah! You actually live in this kind of run-down place!" Winding through the alleyways and arriving at the capsule apartment building, Nancy Phoenix was the first to express her dissatisfaction. The building was so cramped, you could barely even turn around inside.
"Having a place to live is good enough," Barrett Walk said unenthusiastically.
"Yeah! Let's go, sis!" Lucy Phoenix pulled her sister and headed upstairs.
"Hehe! Barrett Walk, you really are quite impressive! Saving damsels in distress at the market, you've really got some skills!" A teenager walked out of the hallway, wearing a necklace and a hip-hop expression, looking at Barrett Walk and the two women behind him with a sly grin on his face.
"Get lost!" Barrett Walk kicked him in the rear. This guy was asking for it. He ran far away and turned back to laugh heartily at the three of them.
Seeing the guy run far away and still leering at her, Little Tiger Girl was suddenly furious. She scolded, "Get lost, or I'll pull out all your teeth. Let's see if you'll still be smiling." After speaking, she picked up a brick from the side of the corridor and threw it, accidentally breaking someone else's window.
Barrett Walk, seeing Little Tiger Girl's fierce appearance, was sweating profusely. He quickly grabbed her shoulder and hurried upstairs, "You've caused trouble, run!"
"Hmph! What's there to be afraid of, it's just a window? I can afford to compensate for it," Nancy Phoenix said disdainfully after Barrett Walk let go of her shoulder.
Watching her proud and fierce appearance, Barrett Walk found it amusing. This girl's mind was a mystery. Despite her audacious nature, he chose not to pay her any mind and shook his head, walking back home. Nancy Phoenix looked at Barrett Walk walking away and then turned to Lucy Phoenix, saying, "You need to step up! If you keep acting like this, he won't like you. Don't forget about that girl from yesterday. If she wants to compete for him, you won't stand a chance."
Lucy Phoenix sighed helplessly, "I don't know why, but when he sat next to me last night, my heart was pounding non-stop. I can't speak whenever I face him. What should I do?"
"Hmph! Don't be afraid. After enrolling in the War God Academy, both of us have got this covered," Little Tiger Girl raised an eyebrow, her clear and bright eyes narrowed, shimmering with an eager light like a fox seeing a hen.
Seeing her sister's appearance, Lucy Phoenix remembered that she used to be the same. Drinking heartily and eating heartily, especially at that gathering where she unexpectedly lost her appetite. In the past, she would have been driven crazy, but now in her current gloomy and quiet state, she felt no sense of unease. She had actually endured it.
"Sis, what should I do?" Lucy Phoenix weakly grabbed Nancy Phoenix's belt, putting all her strength on her.
"Let go! If you don't let go, you'll pull my pants down," Nancy Phoenix's pants were pulled down, revealing a bright round curve of flesh that would make any man want to see more. She quickly pulled up her pants and turned around to slap her hand, then fixed her pants, scolding, "You little hooligan, luckily no one saw, otherwise your sister's reputation would have been ruined."
Barrett Walk stuck his head out of the hallway and asked, "What's going on, why aren't you coming up?"
"Oh! It's nothing, why is your head sticking out like that? You're not a turtle, hurry up and pull your head back in!" Little Tiger Girl had just fixed her pants when she saw Barrett Walk's head sticking out, and she was startled, waving him away.
After Barrett Walk entered the house and checked on 'Julia', he touched her smooth forehead and found that the fever had receded. He then fetched a pot and basin from under the bed, carried the basin out, and saw the two girls curiously looking around. He said, "Come inside and sit! It's cramped, but at least it can fit you two!"
"Why is this house so run-down!" Little Tiger Girl looked at Barrett Walk's capsule apartment, which was barely 3x5 meters, barely enough to fit a bed and almost nothing else. Seeing a woman lying on the bed, her face changed from curiosity to gloominess. She turned to look at Barrett Walk with a cold voice, "Who is this woman?"
Lucy Phoenix, seeing her sister's expression, turned pale and trembled, her teeth clenched. She had not expected Barrett Walk to be so unfaithful.
Barrett Walk noticed the strangeness of the two sisters and followed Nancy Phoenix's gaze to see 'Julia' on the bed, her alluring figure exposed outside the covers. He shook his head and chuckled, "She actually likes to steal the covers!"
"I'll ask again, who is this woman?" Nancy Phoenix's tone was as cold as a frigid Arctic blast, and her words turned into ice, shattering on the ground.
"What's wrong with you?" Barrett Walk asked, puzzled. Why was this girl suddenly so angry? Who was this woman, and what did it have to do with them?
"Sister, let's go!" Nancy Phoenix grabbed Lucy Phoenix's hand, feeling a bit surprised. She realized her sister's hand was icy cold, and when she tried to pull her, she didn't budge. Turning her head to look at her, she saw her with a pale but determined face. She knew that when her sister's stubbornness kicked in, even nine oxen couldn't pull her back. So she let go of her hand and stood aside with a very unpleasant expression.

"Barrett, tell me, do you like me?" Lucy Phoenix's snow-white face quickly blushed with a strange rouge.
Barrett Walk exerted a little force on the hand holding the basin, and the fragile plastic crumbled, causing him to frantically readjust the basin. He stared into Lucy Phoenix's clear, bottomless eyes, feeling a pang of tenderness as he saw her fragile appearance. She was just like Julia in the previous life, a spitting image, invoking memories that made Barrett Walk ache. He had originally planned to let go, but at this moment, the pain made him want to go back in time, find Julia, and make up for regrets.
"You're still young, these things are useless to you," Barrett Walk said, finding no excuse to refuse, so he could only push it off.
"He's rejecting you again," Nancy Phoenix sneered, inserting herself, "I want to hear it from you personally, that's the only way I'll give up," Lucy Phoenix shook her head, her eyes fixed on Barrett Walk.
Barrett Walk felt weak under her gaze. He hadn't realized that both of these girls were so persistent. He quickly hugged the basin and said, "I'll go wash the vegetables. We'll talk about these things after we've eaten!" Barrett Walk said, then hurriedly ran away with the basin.
"Hmph! This coward. Sis, what's so good about this person? I don't see it. Forget about him! Let's go now," Nancy Phoenix said, pulling her sister's hand and rubbing it in her palm. She was really starting to worry about her sister's state.
Lucy Phoenix glared at her sister, withdrew her hand, and walked into the house, found a stool, and sat down, staring at the table filled with things. Crude cooking utensils and the room filled with smoke when cooking. Occasionally, she turned to look at the two girls, then quickly focused on cooking, putting all the vegetables in a pot and adding water, she could finally relax. Seeing 'Julia's' condition, with sweat pouring down her forehead, there was nothing much left to do, and she could only sigh at her good health.
"Sister, what should I do?" Lucy Phoenix weakly grasped Nancy Phoenix's belt, putting all her strength into it.

Seeing 'Julia's' condition, with sweat pouring down her forehead, there was nothing much left to do, and she could only sigh at her good health.
After taking the medicine and sleeping for a while, she was feeling much better. She was lying in bed, eagerly waiting for Barrett Walker to return, but she didn't expect him to bring back two young girls. When she heard Nancy Phoenix's confession, she almost burst out laughing under the covers. The situation was quite uncomfortable for her, and she was sweating profusely and almost had cramps in her stomach.
Suddenly, three beautiful women appeared in this capsule-like apartment, but Barrett Walker did not feel honored at all. He felt like he had become a babysitter, especially having to cater to the whims of the two young girls. He served a pot of hot and spicy stew, filling the room with its aroma.
Barrett Walker placed several large bowls on the table, feeling out of place with the three beautiful women. He could only apologize and say that there was nothing else available. After arranging everything, Barrett Walker approached "Julia" and said, "It's time to eat. Have your meal and then go back to sleep."
Unable to resist any longer, "Julia" sat up as soon as Barrett Walker called out to her. Her languid beauty suddenly filled the room with radiance, instantly overshadowing the two inexperienced young girls. Nancy Phoenix suddenly exclaimed, realizing that this woman was their most admired star, Julia: "Ah! Julia! Sister! She's actually Julia!"
It was only then that Barrett Walker remembered that both of these girls were huge fans of Julia. Could this be the breakthrough to solve the problem?
