"Why did you call out the scale today?"

The two were on their way back to Baili Xiyao's apartment in the city center. Baili Xiyao lowered her head and looked at He Mozhao with a teasing look on her face as he rested his head on her legs.

"It doesn't take any effort to yell, and it makes them happy, so why not do it?"

"After your memory came back, you have become more carefree than before," Baili Xiyao's slender fingers shuttled back and forth in He Mozhao's hair. Hearing He Mozhao's words, she chuckled and joked.

"Why, do you think I was too picky in the past?"

"How dare I?" Baili Xiyao raised his hands in surrender. "I wish you would be calculating about everything. As long as you don't suffer any loss, you can do whatever you like."

He Mozhao snorted proudly, then turned serious and said, "Speaking of which, there is actually something I need to do."

"What's up?"

"I'm quite curious about what happened after Fan Qi was taken away."

"Then why don't you ask He Yishuang to come out and ask her tomorrow?"

"Well, will you join me tomorrow?"

In fact, He Mozhao just asked this casually, because Baili Xiyao would definitely not have time tomorrow, and she had to take Baili Xiao to understand the group's current business.

"You little heartless one! You know I don't have time, yet you still ask?"

Even though his nose was pinched and he couldn't breathe, He Mozhao didn't get annoyed. He looked at Baili Xiyao with a smile and said, "Do you like someone with a conscience?"

Baili Xiyao shook his head, lifted him up slightly, and whispered to He Mozhao, "I only like you."

The two of them didn't deliberately lower their voices when they were talking, so Xiao Rui, who was in the driver's seat, got goose bumps all over his body when he heard it. If it weren't for the training he had gained over the years to remain calm in the face of danger, these two shameless people would have caused a car accident sooner or later if he had been driving.

What Xiao Rui didn't know was that as soon as Baili Xiyao finished speaking, the two of them had already started playing the tricks of a young couple, kissing each other passionately, lips to lips.

"Hiss~" He Mozhao watered his eyes, looked at himself in the water mirror, pointed at his broken lips, turned to Baili Xiyao, and said angrily, "It's all your fault~"

"Well, blame me, blame me."

Baili Xiyao responded repeatedly, holding He Mozhao's handsome face with a smile, and gently kissed the broken skin. The broken skin returned to normal, with only a slight redness and swelling caused by sucking, indicating the intense kiss just now.

Along the way, Xiao Rui silently sent the two ancestors back to the apartment as quickly as possible and retired with his mission accomplished.

Around ten o'clock the next morning, He Mozhao curled up in bed, rubbing his sore waist. The place next to him was already cold, which showed that the culprit who had "eaten him alive" had left for a long time.

The soreness in his waist was continuous and subtle. It wasn't uncomfortable but it couldn't be ignored either. He Mozhao became more and more angry as he thought about it. He suddenly bent his knees and kicked the empty half of the bed.

As soon as I retracted my feet, the phone on the bedside table rang.

He Mozhao answered the call and turned on the hands-free mode. A cold and gentle voice sounded from the other end.

"Baby, are you awake?"

He Mozhao snorted twice to express his dissatisfaction.

Baili Xiyao on the other end of the phone was still looking through the documents Xiao Rui had sent over. When he heard He Mozhao's humming, he touched his nose guiltily and said with a wry smile, "I couldn't help it for a moment."

"When did you ever hold back?" He Mozhao sat up, took the phone, and pretended to be gritting his teeth.

The voice did sound like he was angry, so Baili Xiyao couldn't tell for a moment whether He Mozhao was angry or not. But after all, they had been together for a thousand years and he had a thorough understanding of He Mozhao's temper, so, "I went too far, I apologize."

He Mozhao's heart tightened when he heard the deliberately lowered voice. The anger he pretended to have disappeared in an instant, and he blurted out an anxious "It's not too much".

Baili Xiyao almost laughed out loud when he saw this, but he pursed his lips to suppress the smile. After a while, he continued to induce with a depressed mood, "How can it not be excessive? Listening to the baby's voice, I feel that the baby must be feeling unwell now. It's my fault."

Why does the formula of this sentence sound so familiar?

He Mozhao shook his head, putting aside the familiar feeling of being tricked in the past long ago. Just as he was about to speak to comfort her, he heard Baili Xiyao's broken smile on the other end of the phone.

"……", I have no need to think of comforting myself!

He Mozhao got angry and hung up the phone. He no longer paid attention to Baili Xiyao and got up to wash up.

On the other side, Baili Xiyao looked at the hung up phone, smiled and shook his head, thinking that his baby's thoughts were still so pure after so many years, so adorable.

At this moment, He Mozhao, who was washing up, heard his cell phone ringing again. Thinking it must be Baili Xiyao, he did not answer it in time, but the ringing stopped and rang again, over and over again.

He Mozhao had no choice but to walk out of the bathroom and return to the bed to pick up the phone. When he looked, he found that it was not Baili Xiyao, but someone he hadn't seen for a long time.

"Little fairy~ did you miss me?"

As soon as the call was connected, the clear young voice of the other party came into his ears, but the title made He Mozhao's face darken.

The other party waited for a while and saw that He Mozhao did not respond, so he called out a few more times, "Little fairy, little fairy, little fairy?"

"Erd! If you call me 'little fairy' again, I'll have my people blow up your castle."

When Erde heard He Mozhao's deep voice, he quickly responded with a smile: "Okay, okay~ Then call me little fairy? Well, it's settled!" After he finished talking to himself, without waiting for He Mozhao's response, he immediately pretended to be pitiful and said aggrievedly: "Little fairy~ Can you pick me up at the airport? I'm unfamiliar with the imperial capital. You can't just leave a handsome guy like me at the airport, right?"

"You've come to the imperial capital?"

To be honest, He Mozhao didn't believe what this person said.

"Yeah~ If you don't believe me, just listen." Erde passed the phone further away and transmitted the voice of the airport announcement to He Mozhao through the phone. "I've been sitting in the airport for half an hour. If you don't come to pick me up, I'll be wandering the streets, wuwuwu."

He Mozhao was furious when hearing the fake crying voice, and he quickly interrupted, "Stop, stop, stop pretending. You are the heir of the Capet family, how dare you wander the streets?"

Seeing that people were not fooled, Erde stopped pretending and sighed: "It is becoming increasingly difficult to fool fairies nowadays."

"What are you doing in the imperial capital?" He Mozhao didn't intend to chat with him. While asking Erde, he changed his clothes and prepared to go to the airport.

"If I said I was being hunted, would you believe me?"

What answered Erde was the busy tone after He Mozhao hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, He Mozhao put on his coat, put his phone in his pocket, and drove out himself to pick up Erde.

He Mozhao believed what Erdo said last. Recently, it was said that the Capet, Cavendish and Garcia families had been fighting fiercely. Erdo chose to leave the center of the battlefield at this time, and he might have other plans.

He Mozhao sighed while holding the steering wheel, secretly hoping that the fight between the three families would not involve the empire, but with what happened to Fan Qi before, the empire was likely to be affected this time.
