In the second half of the night, the four boys gradually couldn't hold on any longer and fell asleep on the table. Shen Zhile was snoring with his mouth open, which looked a bit funny.
Among the family, Huo Jinxi was the only one who had not slept and was still awake.
There are very few opportunities to look at Fubao like this, so how could he bear to fall asleep?
Fubao looks very peaceful when he sleeps. He looks very well behaved and cute.
She closed her eyes, her long eyelashes covering her fair skin, casting a small feather fan-like shadow that trembled gently with her breathing. Her lips were pink, like delicate flowers, making people want to...
Huo Jinxi couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke her little face.
At this moment, Fubao's long eyelashes trembled, and he murmured softly, "Long Xiao..."
Huo Jinxi was stunned for a moment, and then he felt ecstatic.
He didn't expect that Fubao would actually call his name. Moreover, she called him in her sleep. Did she dream about her?
Restraining the joy and excitement in his heart, Huo Jinxi lowered his head and leaned close to her ear. His deep voice was particularly gentle, "Yes, I'm here."
I'm always here for you, idiot.
His voice seemed to give Fubao peace of mind, and she fell into a deep sleep again.
Huo Jinxi was somewhat helpless and reached out to tuck the quilt for her. Suddenly, a dark light flashed across his eyes, and his sharp gaze swept out the window!
…
The cold wind was howling outside the house, the "crackling" sounds of firecrackers and fireworks were still intermittent, and occasionally there would be a particularly loud "bang!", someone was setting off a thunder bomb.
At the gate of the yard, there were two black figures standing, hidden in the night, and no one could detect their presence.
The person on the left looked around the village where the lights were still on and said with emotion, "Tsk, the New Year celebrations in the mortal world are really lively. It feels quite fun."
The person on the right said, "It's quite fun. But will the Master be angry if we come to see him today?"
"Of course, but there's nothing we can do about it..."
Before he finished speaking, a tall and straight figure with a strong sense of oppression appeared in front of them.
The cold voice mixed with the chill wind made people shudder, "Who asked you to come?"
The two were startled when they saw him, and immediately knelt down in front of him, "Your Majesty!"
Long Xiao looked down at the two of them, his handsome eyes were extremely cold, "What's the matter?"
These two people are Chi and Wang, two of the four guardians of the demon world. Their human forms are not as weird and scary as rumored by the outside world. Instead, they look good and stand out in the crowd.
But compared with Long Xiao, there is a world of difference.
Chi raised his head and looked at him, somewhat afraid to look directly into Long Xiao's dark red eyes.
Every time he saw these eyes, he would think of the red spider lilies and flames of hell, making him feel as if he would be sent to hell if he wasn't careful.
He swallowed and said nervously: "Your Majesty, I... We know that you and that girl are getting along very well, and we don't want to disturb you. However, the situation is urgent now, and we have no choice but to risk being discovered by the heavens to come to you!"
"Get to the point!" Long Xiao didn't want to listen to this.
Chi trembled, knelt down again, and said with a sad face: "Your Majesty, during the time you were away, the heavens were hunting you everywhere. Since they failed to catch you, Zhao Gongming said he would lead the heavenly soldiers to attack the demon world. Now the people in the demon world are in panic and have split into two factions. One faction advocates war and the other advocates peace. Please go back and take charge of the situation!"
