"Mm, let's go find my wife Meier first." Summer thought for a moment and pulled Gu Hanchuang towards the dark team base canteen.

In no time, they arrived at the canteen. There, in the spacious dining hall, only Meier was sitting at a table, stuffing her face with food. It seemed that Meier really was very hungry.

"Wife Meier, eat slowly; don’t choke." Summer slipped to Meier’s side and sat down next to her.

Meier gave Summer a white-eyed glance but continued gnawing on the chicken leg. At this moment, she wasn't wearing sunglasses anymore. In fact, Meier didn’t wear them all the time now; some dark team members had seen her true appearance already. Everyone knew by now that Meier was the first beauty in the dark team, and even Mu Han seemed a little lacking when compared to her.

Summer stared at Meier for a long time before finally putting his mind at ease. This Meier was still the old Meier; although she exuded a few more fairy-like qualities now, there wasn’t any fundamental difference from how she used to be. She didn't resemble that dead woman Night Yu Mei in demeanor either—although she too could be considered an aloof beauty, her coldness was completely different from Night Yu Mei’s.

This also made Summer realize that perhaps Night Yu Mei's coldness wasn’t due to practicing the Ice Moon Heart Canon but rather because of her personality.

"Hey, why are you staring at me" Meier looked a little unhappy. "You've seen before!"

"Wife Meier, since I’m about to leave soon, I want to look at you more." Summer said in all seriousness.

Mie couldn't help glaring at Xia Tian fiercely again and said angrily, "Are you crazy What nonsense are you talking about Don’t you know that people might think you’re going to die"

"Wife Mie, how can you curse your husband to death You should know that cursing your husband is the same as cursing yourself. Cursing yourself means self-torture, and self-torture isn’t a good habit!" Xia Tian said seriously.

"I don't want to deal with you!" Mie finally remembered that arguing with this guy wouldn’t result in anything good. The best option was to say nothing at all. Therefore, she really did not bother with Xia Tian anymore and focused solely on her dinner.

However, Mie’s silence didn’t mean that Xia Tian would stop talking either. He found things to talk about from time to time, making it so that Mie couldn’t even enjoy a peaceful meal. This gave Mie the urge to never eat with this guy again in the future, but she felt that such an idea was impossible, so she didn't say anything.

After more than ten minutes, Mie finally finished her dinner and quickly left. However, Xia Tian had prepared himself for it this time, so even though her speed was fast, his wasn’t any slower. He followed closely behind her until he reached her bedroom.

Mie couldn't help but speak up, "What are you following me here for"

"Wife Mie, it's this late; of course I’m coming to sleep," Xia Tian answered boldly and straightforwardly.

“I didn’t ask you to come here to sleep!” Mie pouted. "You can sleep with Mu Han…"

Mie originally wanted to tell Xia Tian to sleep with Mu Han, but she suddenly thought of a way to get back at this lecherous man and immediately changed her mind, asking instead, “Are you really going to sleep here”

"Miyee, of course it's true," Xia Tian answered without hesitation.

"If you're going to sleep here, you can only do so alone; no one else is allowed here. Your maidservant isn't permitted either, and neither is Mu Han. If you agree, stay; if not, leave immediately," Miyee said quickly.

"Alright!" Xia Tian agreed readily.

Gu Hanshuang was even more obliging: "Young Master, Madam, I will go out now."

Gu Hanshuang left the bedroom right away and closed the door behind her. Xia Tian locked it from inside and then grinned at Miyee: "Miyee, can we sleep now"

"Sure!" Miyee's pretty face showed a somewhat odd smile. "You can sleep on the floor while I take the bed."

"Ah" Xia Tian was immediately disheartened. "Miyee, how could you let your husband sleep on the floor"

"Or should I sleep on the floor and you take the bed I don't mind," Miyee said with an innocent expression, adding at the end, "Don’t forget what you promised me a few days ago. If you misbehave, don’t come looking for me in the future."

Xia Tian felt even more disheartened; he realized that while he could stay and sleep here tonight, it was different from what he had imagined—spending the night with his wife. Miyee still wouldn't do anything a husband and wife should do together, not even allowing him to hold her as they slept.

In the midst of his gloom, his phone rang. He took out his phone to see that it was Mu Han calling. Just as he intended to pick up the call, Mei'er snatched the phone away from him and quickly answered: "Mu Han, it's me, Mei'er. That pervert isn't leaving tonight, so don't wait for him."

"Alright!" On the other end, Mu Han chuckled softly, his tone filled with ambiguity. "Mei'er, have a good night with your husband then! I won’t bother you two."

Mu Han hung up quickly after that call, but Xia Tian became even gloomier. He finally realized that Mei'er was deliberately doing this to make him unable to enjoy the company of his wife or his maidservant tonight.

Mei'er returned his phone and smiled with satisfaction: "I'm going to bed now. Are you sleeping on the floor or in the bed"

"On the floor, I guess." Xia Tian responded dejectedly. Although he was a bit gloomy, he didn't want Mei'er to sleep on the floor. Even if she liked it there, making his wife sleep on the ground wasn’t right.

Yawning, Xia Tian muttered to himself: "I am kind of sleepy now. I'm going to bed first, Mei'er."

Xia Tian was not someone who couldn't live without a woman by his side every night, so he quickly accepted the situation and lay down on the floor with ease, closing his eyes. Before long, it seemed like he had fallen asleep.

He looked as if he was sleeping soundly, but Mei'er suddenly found herself unable to fall asleep too. Firstly, she wasn't really used to sleeping in a bed; she truly preferred sleeping on the floor. Secondly, she thought that by doing this, she could make this pervert sleep alone tonight without any company. When she saw how gloomy Xia Tian looked earlier, she felt pleased for a moment. But now, seeing him seemingly not minding anymore and falling asleep so quickly made her gloomy instead. Why was it so hard to get even with this pervert

Mei'er tossed and turned on the bed for half an hour without being able to sleep at all. Finally, she couldn't resist jumping out of bed and lying down next to Xia Tian on the floor.

However, as soon as she lay down, she immediately felt herself being embraced.

"Hey, you're not asleep" Mei'er shot a glance at Xia Tian.

"Mei'er, if you haven’t fallen asleep, how can I fall asleep then" Xia Tian said with a grin while looking at Mei'er. Then he started tempting her again, "Mei'er, since you couldn't sleep, why don’t we do some exercises to help you fall asleep Would that be okay"

"No!" Mei'er snorted lightly. "Don’t think I’m unaware of what you, this pervert, have in mind!"

"Mei’er, don’t always be so stingy. If you keep it up like this, then I’ll start calling you Stingy Ghost Mei’er," Xia Tian grumbled.

Mei'er yawned and stretched; she was sleepy too. After being embraced by Xia Tian, her drowsiness grew stronger.

"Hey, you can embrace me but don’t do anything else. I’m going to sleep now," Mei’er muttered before falling asleep right away.

Xia Tian was upset again; although hugging Mei'er felt good, only being able to hug and not doing anything else didn't feel comfortable at all. As a result, while Mei’er slept soundly, it took him an hour before he finally dozed off.

When Xia Tian woke up again the next morning, Mei’er had already left his embrace but was still in the bedroom.

"Mei'er, darling, sleep a little longer." Xia Tian was lying on the ground but stretched out his arms as if inviting Mei'er to continue resting in his embrace.

"If you want to sleep, keep sleeping. I'm going out," said Mei'er this time with a relatively gentle tone. Of course, her gentleness was only relative to her past unfriendly attitude.

"What an uncooperative wife!" Xia Tian muttered and then quickly stood up straight, coming over to Mei'er and reaching out his arms to pull her in again. Unfortunately for him, the gap between Mei'er's current agility and Xia Tian’s wasn't very big, so she managed to dodge him once more.

Perhaps worried that Xia Tian would continue with nonsensical questions, Mei'er proactively asked, "When are you returning to Jianghai"

"Mm-hmm, I'll ask Meimei later. Probably around the day after tomorrow," Xia Tian thought for a moment and then said: "Right, Mei'er darling, Big Demoness wife and Blonde wife won’t be traveling with me this time either; they're all in the capital city too. However, their current strength isn't as great as yours, so you have to help take care of them!"

"Got it." Mei'er rolled her eyes at Xia Tian. Although she would definitely assist Zhao Yujie and Mu Han even without Xia Tian reminding her, his way of saying it made her feel off—it sounded like he was asking her to look after his rivals!

But then she found it a bit strange as well and asked: "Isn’t I Xiao Yin going with you to Jianghai City"

Xia Tian was equally puzzled: "Mei'er darling, Yi Yi wife has gone to Wong Kong City!"

"You didn't know she had come back to the capital city" Mei'er seemed somewhat surprised.an" Yun Dong was very angry."If I don’t want Yun Qing to become my wife, of course I will do everything in my power to prevent your wish from coming true." Xia Tian’s reasoning was quite solid."I’m no...
