[CN] Idle chat about the Spring Festival

🍒 Warning: This post contains detailed spoilers for a feature which has not been released in English servers! 🍒

There’s a feature in CN called 随便聊聊 (“Idle Chat”), where you can select a mood and talk to the love interests about various topics :> 

Idle chats on work, life and studies: gavin l kiro l lucien l shaw l victor

[ Gavin - Happy Mood ]

MC: Today, I did something which left me incredibly fulfilled - I did a thorough cleaning of my house! I can now welcome the new year with ease~

Gavin: I’m also doing a cleanup, but my progress has been a little slow.

Gavin: Without realising it, lots of dust accumulated at home.

Gavin: Cough. Could I leave Thorny in your care at your place?

Gavin: I’m afraid it’d die from breathing in too much dust.

[Note] SO GAVIN WAS REFERRING TO MC IN HIS RECENT WEIBO POST HNNGGHH

[ Gavin - Upset Mood ]

MC: I might really have no talent in picking gifts. All the New Year gifts I bought for the elders were criticised. They’re either too flashy but without practical use, or not worth the price...

Gavin: Who said so?

Gavin: The gifts you’ve given me - I like them all very much.

-

[ Gavin - Angry Mood ]

MC: Horrible! I had arranged to meet up with high school schoolmates for a meal over the New Year celebrations. In the end, they stood me up!

Gavin: There’s no need to get angry with people who don’t keep their promises.

Gavin: Where were you originally planning to go? I’ll accompany you.

Gavin: Strictly speaking, I’m also your high school schoolmate.

-

[ Kiro - Happy Mood ]

MC: I bought tons of firecrackers that I used to play in my childhood! We could set them off on the eve of New Year’s together, and scare away all the bad luck of the new year~

Kiro: Don’t worry, Miss Chips.

Kiro: If the firecrackers can’t scare them off, Superhero Kiro will take action!

Kiro: P.S. Savin says the “Double Kick” firecrackers are really fun. Have you bought them?

[Trivia] The “Double Kick” firecrackers (���踢腿) contain two layers of gunpowder. The lower layer of gunpowder will send the firecracker into the sky, and the upper layer will explode in the air after it reaches a height of 10-20 meters!

[ Kiro - Upset Mood ]

MC: I’m a little speechless at myself. I was actually so busy that I forgot to do Spring Festival shopping... which is why I keep thinking my mouth is missing something on this spring evening.

Kiro: This time, I’ll have to criticise Miss Chips. 

Kiro: How could you forget such an important thing?

Kiro: But the good news is, I’m already carrying items for the Spring Festival and rushing towards your home.

-

[ Kiro - Angry Mood ]

MC: Huhuhuhu... Just now, my relatives came to visit. In the end, the children broke my beloved action figure! I’m going to fight it out with this bunch of little rascals-

Kiro: Don’t be impulsive - they’re just children!

Kiro: Little children can’t gauge their strength - what if they hurt you?

Kiro: Leave it to Flower Guardian Kiro to meet them!

[Trivia] Kiro’s last line is a reference to a Chinese song called 护花使者!

[ Lucien - Happy Mood ]

MC: Let me tell you a secret - I’ve prepared a humongous lunar New Year’s Eve meal. May Professor Lucien return home early to eat~

Lucien: No wonder the developments of the experiment went very smoothly today.

Lucien: Turns out it’s because MC is waiting for me at home.

Lucien: Looks like I’ll have to leave early for once.

-

[ Lucien - Upset Mood ]

MC: I’m caught in a struggle between eating glutinous rice balls or dumplings for lunar New Year’s Eve...

Lucien: Since we’re celebrating the New Year, what I would suggest is that

Lucien: You could actually be a little greedier. 

Lucien: Eating these two dishes together wouldn’t be too much for the both of us.

-

[ Lucien - Angry Mood ]

MC: If the neighbours didn’t knock on my door to inform me, I wouldn’t have realised that the spring couplets outside the door were pasted upside-down! No wonder you smiled meaningfully when standing outside my door yesterday...

Lucien: I just found your clumsy side very adorable.

Lucien: Sorry, I didn’t tell you in time.

Lucien: Could I make up for it with a warm cup of cocoa?

-

[ Shaw - Happy Mood ]

MC: Today, something incredibly, explosively happy happened! A faraway aunt actually gave me New Year’s money, and I felt like I once again turned into a little kid~

Shaw: Be confident, and remove the “felt like”.

Shaw: Being incredibly, explosively happy over such a trivial thing

Shaw: If you aren’t a little kid, who is?

-

[ Shaw - Upset Mood ]

MC: I keep feeling that celebrating the New Year is so boring... Is the issue with me or the year?

Shaw: Do you need to ask?

Shaw: Who else spends their New Year’s cooped up at home.

Shaw: Come downstairs. I’ll take you out for a stroll.

-

[ Shaw - Angry Mood ]

MC: I’m so mad! When I visited my relatives earlier, I played games with my male cousins. They actually felt that I was too bad at the game, and didn’t care if I lived or died!

Shaw: I can empathise, and they aren’t to blame.

Shaw: Enough talking. Log in.

Shaw: You should know by now that aside from me, no one else can handle your skills.

-

[ Victor - Happy Mood ]

MC: Today, I specially bought a new outfit for New Year’s. I feel myself having more strength to welcome the new year! A certain someone who’s still working right now can’t experience such happiness~

Victor: You enjoy happiness on your own,

Victor: Yet pull me into experiencing your pain when you stay up all night to rush review reports?

Victor: You truly don’t suffer losses.

-

[ Victor - Upset Mood ]

MC: Ooh... we agreed to stay up all night on lunar New Year’s Eve. Why did it become the morning of the next day when I opened my eyes again?

Victor: It’s within expectations.

Victor: The reason why I didn’t wake you up was so that you’d completely give up on such ideas in the future.

Victor: Breakfast is on the table. Heat it up before eating it.

-

[ Victor - Angry Mood ]

MC: The older generation cheerfully said they’d accompany me for a game of mahjong. Afterwards, they won all my New Year’s money! Did I fall into a trap??

Victor: ...dummy.

Victor: I remember telling you not to touch mahjong again after the last time we played.

Victor: You haven’t learnt from your mistakes.
