The next day, it was broad daylight.
The thick curtains made the room dim, with only a few rays of light stubbornly sneaking in through the gaps.
Ruan Tang was awakened by an itch.
Yan Yu's chin had somehow crept up to the side of her neck, his newly sprouted stubble short and stiff, rubbing against the delicate skin of her neck with each steady breath.
It's both itchy and numb.
She groaned uncomfortably and shrugged her neck in a daze.
The moment the little one in his arms moved, the man behind him immediately noticed.
Almost instinctively, he leaned in and pulled the person closer to his chest.
"woke up?"
His voice, deep and hoarse from just waking up, was warm and hot as his breath brushed against Ruan Tang's ear, making her instantly weak in the knees.
The girl let out a soft, sweet sob, burying her head in the man's broad, warm chest, and murmured indistinctly, "Yan Yu..."
Yan Yu responded and gently kissed the girl's forehead, his voice full of tenderness: "Sleep a little longer."
………………………………
When Ruan Tang was fully awake, she found herself in Yan Yu's arms, her back pressed tightly against the man's chest, his strong arms around her waist.
Noticing that Ruan Tang was awake, Yan Yu reached out and tucked the girl's loose hair behind her ear, asking, "Do you want to get up and eat?"
"Hmm." I slept until after eight in the morning, and I was indeed a little hungry.
The two of them were both quite tired after working for several days in a row, so they took the opportunity to relax and unwind today.
Yan Yu held the little one in his arms and lay on the kang (a heated brick bed) for a while before getting up to make breakfast.
Breakfast consisted of millet porridge cooked by Yan Yu, steamed soup dumplings, and a plate of cucumber salad.
After finishing his meal, Yan Yu quickly cleared away the dishes.
Turning around, I saw Ruan Tang sitting lazily on a recliner, yawning.
He walked over, bent down, and gently wiped away the tears that had just welled up in the corner of her eye with his finger.
What do you want to do today?
His voice was clear and deep, and his eyes were fixed on her.
Ruan Tang looked up, her eyes, washed clean by water, filled with his image.
"Let's go up the mountain."
Her voice was drawn out, soft and sticky, with a hint of coquetry.
When she woke up in the morning, she felt that she was about to reach the fourth level of Qi Refining, so she could take advantage of the morning dew before it dried and go to the mountains to cultivate.
Yan Yu's eyes flickered.
Going to the mountains is fine, we can gather some firewood while we're at it.
Although he had all kinds of fuel and wood in his space, it would definitely not work if he didn't collect firewood.
"Okay." His Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and he lowered his head to kiss her, his tongue gently entwining with hers, before releasing the girl after a while.
Yan Yu was in a great mood. He packed the things he needed for the hike up the mountain and then took the little girl's soft little hand to prepare for the trip.
A streak of silver light shot down from the rooftop and landed precisely on Ruan Tang's shoulder.
The little white dog clung tightly to her collar with its two front paws, its fluffy head rubbing against her face. Its dark purple, beady eyes clearly said: Take me with you!
"No, there are too many people outside. What if someone sees you?" Ruan Tang refused without even thinking.
This little one has been getting wild lately and is becoming increasingly disobedient.
Upon hearing this, Little White, the entire mouse, refused to comply.
It squeaked pitifully, slid off her shoulder to the ground, and sat on her shoe, clinging to her ankle, refusing to let go.
I don't know where it learned this trick, but when it realized that clinging to someone's leg wasn't working, it started rolling around on the ground with its four legs in the air, using the same tricks that village women use when they argue: crying, making a scene, and threatening suicide.
Ruan Tang was both annoyed and amused by it, and was completely at a loss.
With a thought, she took out a palm-sized spirit beast pouch embroidered with cloud patterns from her spatial storage.
"Alright, alright, I'm scared of you! Go inside, and don't you dare sneak out, understand?"
