In a hazy, dreamlike state, Qi Fuyan felt a pair of small hands untying the ties of his pajamas.

She carefully wrapped her arms around his waist.

Startled, he immediately opened his eyes.

His long-term undercover work among pirates gave him a sharp and ruthless demeanor.

Immediately throw off the covers, and at the same time, take out the laser gun from under the pillow, aim it at the person inside the covers, and load it in a second.

But at a glance, he saw a naked boy.

Hua Yu was startled and looked up in terror, her watery eyes instantly filling with tears.

She explained with a wronged expression, "I'm...I'm sorry, you didn't close the window. I was so cold that...that's why I'm like this. I...I'll leave now."

As he spoke, he was about to get up and walk towards the flowerpot.

Qi Fuyan turned his head and was surprised to find that the roses in the flowerpot were indeed gone.

And that innocent boy was slowly taking steps toward the flowerpot.

Cold rain poured in through the window, threatening to drip onto him.

Qi Fuyan was startled and quickly pulled the person back into his arms, then closed the window.

He looked closely at the person in his arms; her black hair was soft and flowing, and the corners of her eyes were slightly red.

Her fair and beautiful body was like a piece of jade, without a single flaw.

On the left shoulder, there was a beautiful rose pattern.

She is a flower fairy.

In the interstellar era, such little monsters are not uncommon.

Humans can cultivate their spiritual power, and so can animals and plants.

When a flower's spiritual power reaches level A or above, it can transform into human form.

"Are you... a rose?"

"Hmm." Hua Yu lowered her head and gritted her teeth. A thunderclap exploded again, and she shrank back into Qi Fuyan's arms.

"Thunder...thunder, it's so scary." He wiped away his tears and asked pitifully, "Can...I...sleep with you?"

Holding the soft little flower fairy, Qi Fuyan's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

He said, "Okay, come in."

"Th...thank you." After saying that, Hua Yu ignored Qi Fuyan and immediately crawled into the quilt.

It was completely covered inside and out, shrinking into a small ball.

Qi Fuyan's eyes crinkled into a smile.

For the first time in three years, I experienced an emotion called "pleasure".

He took another quilt from the cabinet and gently lay down next to Hua Yu.

Completely free of sleepiness, I began to carefully observe the small ball beside me.

Watching him tremble with fright after a few shouts, I found it strangely amusing.

Rumble—

A thunderbolt accompanied by lightning ripped through the night sky, and Hua Yu shuddered, unable to stay tucked under her blanket any longer.

She slowly moved and slipped into Qi Fuyan's quilt.

The tiny bundle huddled around his waist, trembling and even letting out soft sobs.

Qi Fuyan felt a slight pang of pain in his heart.

He reached out and scooped up the timid flower fairy, holding her in his arms.

He opened the rain cover outside the room with one hand and activated the soundproofing device.

Undeniably, he liked the sound of rain and thunder, because these sounds helped him stay alert.

But since the little flower fairy doesn't like it...

Then... let's just block it.

"There's no sound anymore, I'm not afraid."

Qi Fu extended his hand, his slightly calloused fingertips brushing against Hua Yu's red eyes, and patiently called out, "There's no more thunder, listen."

Hua Yu peeked out, listened carefully for a while, and confirmed that the terrifying sound was indeed gone.

So he tentatively got up: "Then I... will go back to the potted plant..."

But as soon as he moved, Qi Fuyan pressed him back into the brocade quilt.

"No need." Qi Fuyan's voice was cold, but because of his slow speech, it always gave people a sense of gentleness: "I told you to sleep here tonight, so you don't need to go to the bonsai anymore."

"Really...really?"

"real."

"I...can sleep with you...from now on?"

"Can."

Qi Fuyan didn't nod or say "hmm," but gave a direct affirmative answer, eliminating any possibility of the other party having any wild thoughts.

Hua Yu nodded gratefully, and finally leaned against Qi Fuyan's chest, falling peacefully asleep.

… …

The next day, Qi Fuyan got up very early and, before the man woke up, used his personal computer to scan his height and weight.

I'm going out to make him some clothes.

Now that it has taken human form, it can no longer be planted in the soil; from now on, I'll keep it with me.

He went outside for a walk and bought several outfits in Huayu's size, in various colors.

When I got home, a feeling of anticipation rose in my heart for the first time.

The little flower fairy is quite fair-skinned; she would look very pretty in red clothes, wouldn't she?

If I kiss him, will I be able to leave my own red mark on his body?

That little guy is so weak, he'll probably cry from all the kisses, won't he?

Thinking this, Qi Fuyan's heartbeat gradually quickened, and he inexplicably felt a little thirsty.

Uncontrollably, this increased the spacecraft's speed.

But at this moment, in Qi Fuyan's room.

Qi Fucheng sneaked in furtively and saw the sleeping boy on the bed. His eyes lit up instantly.

No wonder Qi Fuyan was so energetic this morning; it turns out he called a little beauty.

Dad hates it when they bring their lovers home.

If Dad finds out about this, Qi Fuyan will be completely disqualified from competing with him for the family fortune.

Qi Fucheng turned on his personal terminal, took a few photos of the flower fairy, and prepared to leave.

But when I turned around, I realized something was wrong.

If this photo is given to Dad, this little guy will definitely be thrown out of the Qi family.

Since we're all going to be kicked out anyway...

Let's give it to him and let him try it.

Thinking this, Qi Fucheng tiptoed closer to the bed.

A sinister hand reached for the blanket covering Hua Yu...
