"Hey," he cleared his throat, "how about we play a game?"

"Great, great!" The three little ones clapped their hands and jumped up and down.

Thinking of Shen Yizhi who was eavesdropping outside, Xuan Ting's heart skipped a beat and he quickly made a "hush" gesture.

Qingbao and Yuanbao covered their mouths in tacit understanding, blinking their big black eyes. Nian Nian was a little slow to react, and when she bit down, the sound of the potato chips being torn apart was particularly obvious.

Seeing that everyone was looking at her, she licked her fingers innocently.

Xuan Ting was so touched by the cuteness.

He carried the three little ones to the bed, and then he lay down on it, lying on his side, with his face supported by the back of his hands.

"Come on, close your eyes. Whoever keeps their eyes closed the longest will get a reward."

Qing Bao and the other two thought he was really playing with them and had no idea of ​​his ulterior motives, so they rushed to close their eyes.

Qing Bao even covered it with her hand, and the dimples on the back of her hand were particularly obvious.

Even with her eyes closed, her mouth was still moving, but the frequency and amplitude were much smaller.

Among them, Yuanbao is the most well-behaved, with his little hands crossed quietly on his belly, and his sleeping face is cute and delicate.

Xuan Ting looked at the three little darlings, his eyes filled with tenderness and doting that he himself had not realized.

Then he saw Qing Bao quietly open a gap between his fingers, secretly glanced at Yuan Bao and Nian Nian beside him, and then pretended that he had not opened his eyes.

He immediately: "..."

As expected of his son, he is so smart.

But children cannot be protected, otherwise they may grow up abnormally in the future.

"Qingbao, don't peek. You are eliminated in this round. Yuanbao and Nian Nian both performed very well, and each of them will be rewarded with a lollipop."

It doesn't matter what is rewarded, what matters is being rewarded.

Qingbao saw that his two friends had lollipops but he didn't, and he almost cried.

Xuan Ting tried to comfort him softly, "Be good, Qingbao, try to perform well in the next round, and you can still get a lollipop."

Then in this round, Qing Bao closed his eyes and fell asleep.

A chubby little leg came over and pressed just three inches below his navel.

Xuan Ting: “…”

Does this kid want to ruin his mother's happiness?

Nian Nian and Qing Bao's movements were perfectly synchronized, but they both pressed their legs on Yuan Bao.

All three children fell asleep.

It seems that it is not difficult to coax a child to sleep, Xuan Ting felt a little proud inside.

He carefully moved Qingbao's chubby little legs off his body and gently got off the bed.

Shen Yizhi, who was waiting outside, saw him come out and asked silently, "Are you all asleep?"

Xuan Ting held her hand and walked out, then he said with great joy, "Yeah, she fell asleep."

Seeing him so cocky, Shen Yizhi couldn't help but doubt, "Are you sure?"

She knew the temperaments of the little ancestors very well. When were they so easily coaxed to sleep? In the bedroom.

The three people who were originally sleeping in all directions opened their eyes one after another.

Qing Bao: "Finally I managed to coax Dad away."

Yuanbao: "It's rare for Daddy and Mommy to get together, we as children should be considerate."

Nian Nian: "Everyone get off my bed."

Outside the door, the kid's father and mother, who were eavesdropping, fell silent at the same time.

Shen Yizhi held his forehead with his hand, these three little bastards are really smart.

Look at what they are saying.

Xuan Ting felt his face burning. He was actually fooled by these three little guys. No one would believe it if he told others about it!

Shen Yizhi knocked on the door and said, "If you don't go to sleep, I'll lock you up in the dark room!"

The few people who were making a lot of noise suddenly froze in place as if the power button had been pressed.

The legendary little dark room, with no light, no sound, and no snacks, is mother finally going to take ruthless action against them?

The three of them climbed onto their beds swiftly and covered themselves with their own quilts.

After a while, the sound of baby-like snoring could be heard from inside.

This time, they really fell asleep.

Shen Yizhi nudged Xuan Ting with his elbow and said, "See? Sometimes coaxing doesn't work, you have to use high-pressure policies. One by one, they just deserve to be punished. As a father, you have to learn a lot."

Xuan Ting looked like he was being taught a lesson: "Yes, yes, Zhizhi is right. I will definitely learn from it in the future."

"Well, it's getting late, you should go to bed too." Shen Yizi turned and walked towards his bedroom, leaving someone behind.

One step, two steps... No one behind her made a sound, and she felt relieved.

She was afraid that he would take the opportunity to ask her to fulfill the three conditions, so it was better not to mention it.

However, it turned out that she was too naive.

When she stepped into the bedroom and was about to close the door, it was stuck by a big hand.

"Zhizhi, have you forgotten something?"

"Huh? Is there? Even if there is, let's wait until tomorrow. I'm so sleepy." Shen Yizi yawned.

Xuan Ting pulled her into his arms and whispered in her ear: "No, you must tell me today."

Shen Yizi sighed in his heart, it seemed that he would have no choice but to fulfill the three conditions today.

"Okay, go ahead."

"The first condition is that I want you to..." Xuan Ting paused deliberately, "sign a life contract with me."

Shen Yizhi thought he had heard it wrong, and subconsciously asked again: "What contract?"

Xuan Ting held her face and kissed her deeply, until her legs became weak and she could not stand. Then he kindly left her lips and answered her question: "Life and Death Contract."

After the conclusion of the covenant of life, both parties will live and die together and share their life.

Unless both of them died, as long as one of them was alive, the other would not die. If they were seriously injured, they could still gain vitality from the other person.

The benefits are huge, but so are the risks.

Once a contract is signed, it is equivalent to tying one's life to another person. They are truly grasshoppers on the same rope.

"Are you... sure?" Shen Yizi didn't know whether to say he was crazy or demented.

Xuan Ting held her in his arms, his lips lingering on her face, greedily kissing her eyebrows, his voice hoarse: "Of course. Promise me."

Shen Yizhi was burned by his eyes and couldn't help but blurt out: "Okay."

"Be good, let's go out."

There is no complete Heavenly Dao formed in the Divine Emperor Pearl. Even if they sign a contract here, it will not be recognized by the Heavenly Dao, so they have to get out first.

On the corridor on the third floor of the small building, the two stood under the starry night sky and signed a life contract.

The moment the contract was created, Shen Yizi vaguely saw a thin ray of light flying out of his body, and the same happened to Xuan Ting.

This represents their respective causal lines.

The two causal lines are entangled and inseparable, which means that their future destinies are closely linked together, no matter how far apart they are.

Then, the two ends of the tangled causal line connected the index fingers of the two people together, winding around several times.

With each circle, the two felt closer to each other.
