Big Orange, who was sleeping like a lump of tiger skin blanket, suddenly raised its head, making a low, threatening "huffing" sound in its throat. Its whole body tensed up, ready to pounce and tear the intruder apart at any moment, to make a good impression on its leader.
Ruan Tang immediately sensed the connection through the contract.
She groggily opened her eyes, snuggled against Yan Yu's warm, firm chest, and spoke in a soft, sleepy voice.
"Brother, what's wrong? Who's outside...?"
"It's nothing, just an idiot." Yan Yu tightened his arms and pressed her closer to his chest, his deep voice vibrating above her head, "Don't worry about her, go to sleep."
He didn't want any unpleasant things to bother her ears.
Ruan Tang tilted her head up from his arms, her big, watery almond-shaped eyes shining brightly in the dim light.
She patted Yan Yu's strong shoulder and said softly, "Yu Hao may be a bit simple-minded, but he's not a bad person at heart. He might be able to lend a hand."
Yan Yu's brows furrowed almost imperceptibly.
He lowered his head and precisely captured the girl's soft lips with a light but punitive kiss, his voice muffled yet domineering: "Tangtang, all I need is you, I don't need any friends."
In his eyes, the people of this world were no different from those things in the apocalypse.
He doesn't believe it, nor does he need it.
Ruan Tang obediently let him kiss her, her small hands comfortingly wrapping around his neck.
Only when she felt the man's cold possessiveness subside slightly did she gently lick his lips, panting, and whisper in his ear in a voice only he could hear:
"Brother, this isn't the cultivation world. There's so little spiritual energy here. We don't know what will happen to us in the future."
She tilted her head up, her watery eyes filled with his reflection.
"I don't want you to live like an isolated island, just the two of us. That's so boring. We need at least one or two people we can boss around... people we can talk to, right?"
Humans are social animals.
She knew he could provide for her, but she didn't want a lover whose world consisted only of the two of them.
Yan Yu looked at her, and the anger that had risen in his heart from being disturbed was soothed by her soft words.
He sighed heavily, as if admitting defeat.
His little girl always manages to get him to compromise.
Since she didn't want him to be all alone...
Then he went and picked up that idiot outside.
This awful weather is freezing!
Yan Yu sat up, ignoring himself, and picked up the neatly folded cotton coat next to him. He carefully helped Ruan Tang put it on as if it were a rare treasure.
Even the top button was fastened perfectly.
Then, like holding a boneless little baby, I lifted her out of her warm bed, placed her steadily on a chair in the main room, and put a warm hot water bottle in her hands.
After doing all this, he casually put on his cotton coat and strode towards the door.
"Squeak—"
The courtyard gate was pulled open from the inside, and a biting wind, carrying snowflakes, rushed in like knives.
Yu Hao, who was squatting by the door, was already frozen stiff. Hearing the sound, he slowly moved around before turning around and saw the towering figure standing in the light at the doorway.
Yes... his brother.
Yu Hao opened his mouth, wanting to call for help, but found that his lips were frozen stiff. His upper lip seemed to be welded to his lower lip, and he couldn't open his mouth at all.
Yan Yu stared expressionlessly at the disheveled creature huddled in the corner, almost buried in snow, without even raising an eyebrow.
He reached out and, as if lifting a tattered sack, effortlessly pulled the man from the snow and tossed him into the yard. (This chapter has been read. Please click to continue reading the next chapter!)
