Seeing the three-comb bull waving its tentacles, Qiu Zimu smiled and said, "Then I'll take it as your agreement."

"What are you doing?" Wang Zhiyi asked.

"Change the house for them. My eldest baby doesn't like the ones I bought." Qiu Zimu said.

"Well, he likes you." Wang Zhiyi said.

"Hahahaha... I think so too. He didn't choose a house and flew into my clothes and stayed there." Qiu Zimu squatted beside the table and talked to the little bug. Wang Zhiyi watched from the side. Others who didn't know the inside story would think that Qiu Zimu could communicate with bugs.

Ye Jing'an and Liu Muzhe also thought that he had this ability, but Wang Zhiyi understood what Chongzi was saying. Anyway, the content of what the two sides said was completely unrelated, and they were all having a happy chat.

Wang Zhiyi smiled and didn't disturb him. She went downstairs to chat with Ye Jingan and Liu Muzhe.

"Are you willing to come down?" Ye Jing'an teased.

"Zi Mu is chatting with Chongzi. What are your plans for tomorrow? What do you need my help with?" Wang Zhiyi asked.

"Catch that bamboo spirit, snatch the soul bag, and see if we can get the details of the mysterious man." Liu Muzhe said.

"Okay." Wang Zhiyi said, "After the sacrifice is completed, they will take the offerings to the bamboo forest in the back mountain. It will be more convenient when there are fewer people around."

"Well, the bamboo forest is her place, don't let her run away." Ye Jing'an said.

"No, she can't run away." Wang Zhiyi said.

"Then it's up to you. We won't do anything." Ye Jing'an said with a smile.

Wang Zhiyi asked about Guan Qiuzimu in a roundabout way, and Ye Jingan was tired of hearing it: "Can you stop asking? If you like, just confess directly. Why ask so many questions!"

"I dare not." Wang Zhiyi said.

"You're pretty awesome, aren't you? You don't even dare to confess your feelings?" Ye Jing'an said, "Old Qiu really likes you, so why are you so afraid?"

"Zi Mu told me that he is afraid of monsters." Wang Zhiyi lowered his eyes.

"That's true. He's not very courageous and can't stand being frightened." Ye Jing'an pondered for a moment, "You'd better not confess your feelings. By then, you've already done what you need to do. If Qiu Zimu suddenly finds out that you're a bug that can transform into a human, he might be frightened to death. You might as well just confess your identity. I think Lao Qiu should be able to accept it. You can slowly cultivate feelings before confessing your feelings. It's safer. Personally, I agree with you and hope you'll be with Lao Qiu and take good care of him."

"Thank you, I'd better not say anything for now." Wang Zhiyi said.

"After all, this is between you and Lao Qiu, so I won't interfere. Lao Qiu may appear honest and weak, but he's actually quite strong-willed. He doesn't like being lied to. You can handle it yourself." Ye Jing'an saw Wang Zhiyi's face flush. "No, why are you blushing while you're chatting with us?!"

Wang Zhiyi said embarrassedly: "Qiu Zimu touched me and pulled my thing!"

Ye Jingan: “…”

Liu Muze: "..."

"He's still talking nonsense. You... help me stop him!" Wang Zhiyi shouted.

"I'm so impressed!" Ye Jing'an ran upstairs. Qiu Zimu was sitting on the bed, pinching the three-comb cow and poking him with his fingers. "What are you doing?"

"There's a small transparent yellow thing sticking out from behind its butt. I'm afraid it's a parasite, so I want to pull it out and take a look." Qiu Zimu said.

"Transparent yellow thing?" Ye Jingan suddenly became curious about what the bug looked like. "Let me see."

As Qiu Zimu let go, the thing quickly retracted. Wang Zhiyi breathed a sigh of relief and glared at Liu Muze with a sinister look.

Liu Muze said in confusion: "Why are you looking at me? I didn't ask him to talk nonsense."

Wang Zhiyi slowly clenched his fists. Liu Muzhe said, "It's none of my business. Don't take your anger out on me."

Ye Jingan walked downstairs and saw the tense atmosphere between them. He asked them curiously, "What happened?"

"You pervert!" Wang Zhiyi cursed.

Ye Jingan paused. He had just thought it was a bug, but he had forgotten that the bug was Wang Zhiyi. He knew everything he said and did. Ye Jingan coughed awkwardly and sat down as if he knew nothing. "Don't scold Qiu Zimu at me."

"I'm scolding you!" Wang Zhiyi said.

Liu Muze couldn't stand it any longer and said angrily, "Did Qiu Zimu feed you with anger? Go find him if he did that. Why are you taking it out on us?"

"That's right!" Ye Jing'an muttered softly, "Let's see what's going on..."

"Don't you have one? Doesn't the person next to you have one too? Two is not enough. Look, why are you looking at mine?!" Wang Zhiyi roared.

"What are you looking at?" Liu Muzhe was confused by what they said.

"How can they be the same? I've never seen a bug before and I was just curious about what it looked like. Do you really think I want to see you?" Ye Jing'an retorted.

"You pervert! Stay away from my insect body!" Wang Zhiyi walked back to the room.

Liu Muze understood what they were talking about and looked at Ye Jingan speechlessly: "No wonder he glared at me just now, it turned out to be because of you."

"I didn't see it, it shrank back." Ye Jing'an said.

"Pervert." Liu Muzhe cursed.

Ye Jingan: “…”

After washing up in the evening, Qiu Zimu asked Aunt Bai for a blanket, thinking that wrapping a blanket under the quilt would keep him warm and prevent him from rolling around and kicking the quilt and catching a cold.

When Qiu Zimu returned to the room, he didn't see Wang Zhiyi. He called out twice, and Wang Zhiyi sat up from the ground and said, "I'm here. What's wrong?"

"Huh?" Qiu Zimu walked over and saw a cotton pad on the floor. Wang Zhiyi was covered in a summer quilt and looked cold. "Why are you sleeping on the floor? You'll catch a cold. Get up!"

"It's okay, I'm in good health and never catch a cold." Wang Zhiyi said.

"Stop being stubborn and come up quickly." Qiu Zimu said.

"I'd better sleep on the floor." Wang Zhiyi lay down.

Qiu Zimu frowned and looked at Wang Zhiyi's back without saying anything else. He wrapped himself in a blanket and lay down on the bed. An inexplicable emotion arose in his heart, as if he had never felt this way before.

Qiu Zimu couldn't sleep, his mind was full of messy things. He picked up his phone to watch videos. He had no interest in either food or games. Qiu Zimu put down his phone, closed his eyes and sighed.

"What's wrong?" Wang Zhiyi asked.

"Ah? It's okay. Maybe I'm a little short of breath because I'm covered too much. I just sighed." Qiu Zimu pulled the blanket loosely. More than ten minutes had passed, but he still didn't feel warm. His whole body was as cold as ice. Maybe it was because Wang Zhiyi held him so warm all night long last night. In contrast, he felt even colder today than when he first lay down yesterday.

The cold air came from beneath him, and no matter how many blankets he covered himself with, his back would still feel cold. Qiu Zimu wanted to go back to his big bed, turn on the electric blanket and the air conditioner, and sleep comfortably until dawn. Qiu Zimu thought that he had become more pampered as he grew up. He had always slept well without the electric blanket.

Wang Zhiyi heard him sigh again and got up to see how he covered himself with the quilt: "Is the quilt still heavy? How about changing it? My blanket is lighter."

"No need, I'm just a little tired today and want to sigh. Did it affect your sleep? I won't sigh anymore, you just go to sleep." Qiu Zimu said weakly.

"It doesn't matter. I wasn't sleepy anyway." Wang Zhiyi reached out and touched the blanket Qiu Zimu had brought over. It was made of thick fleece, so it was a bit heavy, but it was better than being cold. Qiu Zimu was wrapped tightly in the blanket, like a giant silkworm chrysalis. The edge of the blanket was pressed under him, making it uncomfortable for him to sleep. Wang Zhiyi tugged at the blanket, wanting to cover him again.

Even with such a thick blanket, Wang Zhiyi didn't get any heat when he pulled it. He touched the bed where Qiu Zimu slept, and it had been so long, but it still wasn't warm. Wang Zhiyi frowned slightly: "Why isn't the quilt warm? Are you cold?"

"I'm fine." Qiu Zimu said.

"Are you okay? Give me your hand." Wang Zhiyi's tone became serious.

"What are you going to do?" Qiu Zimu asked.

Wang Zhiyi pulled out his hand, and sure enough, it wasn't hot. It was like the temperature of a dead person's hand. Wang Zhiyi said, "I'll get you a hot water bottle."

Uncle Fan didn't have a hot water bottle at home, so he found two plastic bottles and asked him to fill them with hot water. As soon as Wang Zhiyi put the hot water in, the plastic bottles immediately deformed. Uncle Fan filled the bottles with a layer of cold water and then slowly poured the hot water in. The bottles didn't deform, but how long could such small bottles with cold water keep warm? It would probably cool down in an hour or two.

Wang Zhiyi didn't think much about it and ran back to the room with two bottles in her arms. She stuffed one for Qiu Zimu's feet and one for his back. "Uncle Fan doesn't have a rechargeable hot water bottle at home. It's my fault for not thinking it through..."

"I'm fine. There's no need to be so delicate. It's quite warm like this. Thank you. Go to sleep." Qiu Zimu said with a smile.

"Well, you go to sleep first. I'm going to the bathroom." Wang Zhiyi went out to look for something warm. It seemed like the people here weren't afraid of the cold. They didn't need anything except a fire, the kind that burned wood. He wouldn't go so far as to find a pile of firewood and burn it in the room. That wouldn't keep you warm, and you'd probably die of the suffocation.

Qiu Zimu saw that Wang Zhiyi hadn't returned for more than ten minutes, and worried that something had happened to him, so he wrapped himself in a blanket and went out to look for him. Seeing Wang Zhiyi standing in the living room with his hands on his hips, wondering what was going on, Qiu Zimu asked, "What are you doing standing there? Go back to sleep."

"Why are you still up? You'll catch a cold." Wang Zhiyi pushed him back to the room. "I can't find anything that can keep you warm all night. Go to sleep first. I remember there's a small supermarket nearby. I'll go buy you a hot water bottle."

Before Qiu Zimu could say anything, Wang Zhiyi ran out quickly. Qiu Zimu jumped out of the bed, without even putting on his coat, and immediately chased after him: "Wang Zhiyi!"

The temperature outside was much colder than the room. Chills could be seen coming out of his mouth when he spoke. Qiu Zimu had just come out and was shivering in his thin autumn clothes and autumn pants.

"Why did you follow me out?" Wang Zhiyi saw that he was so busy, so he took off his clothes and put them on him, then hugged Qiu Zimu and walked quickly back to the room.

Wang Zhiyi stuffed the person into the quilt. At this moment, he didn't care about the question of propriety. He took off his clothes and got into the quilt, holding Qiu Zimu in his arms, and blamed himself: "I'm sorry..."
