The golden sun descended on the horizon, resembling a suspended golden sword.
Under the pavilion by the pond, a wisp of steam rose.
Qian Renjue sat between Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue, his chopsticks almost untouched.
His bowl was filled with food, shrimp and crab already shelled.
The Soft Bone Rabbit lay on the ground, gnawing on a crispy, sauce-covered tender bone salad from a dish.
Hu Liena, with a smile on her face, tilted her head upwards and said,
"Thank you, Teacher."
Bibi Dong smiled and nodded.
"Liena, I plan to arrange for you to attend some courses at Spirit Hall Academy. It's livelier there, and you can also practice sparring and real combat."
"..."
Hu Liena was stunned, pursed her pink lips, and looked at Qian Renjue.
Under Qian Renxue's gaze, she asked in a small voice: "And... what about Senior Brother?"
"Haha... your Senior Brother is a bit special. He doesn't need that kind of combat practice."
Bibi Dong smiled, her eyes narrowed.
If anyone dared to force Qian Renjue to use his spirit, or spoke coldly to him... Then she would definitely kill those people!
Hu Liena, with a face full of curiosity, had no way of knowing the hidden killing intent in Bibi Dong's heart.
Didn't hear the answer she wanted, Hu Liena drooped her head, a little disheartened, and obediently agreed.
"Nana will listen to Teacher."
"Mmh, good girl!"
Bibi Dong nodded with satisfaction.
She said softly, "When there aren't classes, Teacher will be responsible for teaching you, or I'll have your senior brother help out."
Hearing this.
Hu Liena's eyes lit up, and she nodded happily.
"Yes, Nana understands!"
Immediately after, Qian Renxue's sharp gaze wiped away his smile.
Qian Renjue was about to speak.
But Qian Renxue pressed his hand down, moving a plate of prawns in front of Qian Renjue.
"Jue, help Sister peel some shrimp."
"Oh, alright."
Qian Renjue swallowed the words he wanted to say, putting down his chopsticks.
A hint of a smile flashed in Qian Renxue's eyes.
"Jue, don't forget about Mom."
Bibi Dong reminded him with a smile, "Don't forget."
"Yes, I remember."
Qian Renjue nodded with a smile, not showing any reluctance.
"Good boy～"
Bibi Dong picked up some food, held it to Qian Renjue's mouth, and gently wiped his lips.
Hu Liena blinked, feeling a little envious.
But when she saw her new clothes, she felt particularly satisfied.
Bibi Dong asked softly, "Xiao Xue, when do you plan to leave?"
"Hmm."
Qian Renxue pondered for a moment, pursing her lips while looking at Qian Renjue with her chopsticks.
"Tomorrow."
Qian Renjue met her gaze, smiling.
"Sister, I'm fine. I just don't want to delay my training and have you surpass me."
"Want to surpass your sister? You wish!"
Qian Renxue picked up her chopsticks and playfully pinched Qian Renjue's cheek.
"Ugh!"
Qian Renjue turned her face to dodge.
"Pfft～"
Bibi Dong chuckled, raising her hand to gently wipe the oil stain off Qian Renjue's face. She then looked at Qian Renxue, her eyes filled with concern.
"Xue'er, you must be careful. I'll see you off tomorrow."
"Yes."
Qian Renxue nodded slightly, glancing at the somewhat smug fox beside her.
"Awoo!"
Hu Liena, who had been secretly delighted to hear that Qian Renxue was leaving, suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.
Quickly suppressing the joy in her eyes, Qian Renxue lowered her head and quietly ate the dry rice in her bowl.
"Sister, I've peeled them for you."
Qian Renjue smiled and put a shrimp into Qian Renxue's bowl, then distributed some to the other two girls.
"There's some for Mom and Nana too."
His voice faded.
Then he turned to look at the Soft Bone Rabbit, not forgetting to add one to its plate.
"Woo!"
(Thank you.)
The Soft Bone Rabbit looked up shyly, then quickly lowered its head to enjoy the shrimp.
"Thank you, Senior Brother!"
Hu Liena was somewhat surprised.
Just as she raised her head, the smile on her face slowly froze.
Qian Renxue gently tapped Qian Renjue's face.
Smiling, she said, "Jue, don't worry, your sister will come back to see you often."
"Okay."
Qian Renjue habitually smiled.
Qian Renxue, however, was staring intently at Hu Liena, her eyes filled with a warning.
Bibi Dong smiled, looking at the siblings.
She couldn't resist joining in the fun, gently touching Qian Renjue's face.
Turning to Qian Renxue, she suggested, "How about you two stay here and keep Mom company tonight?"
Night deepened.
In Bibi Dong's courtyard, in a side bedroom, Hu Liena lay on the bed, resting her head on the Soft Bone Rabbit.
She had a pacifier in her mouth, occasionally sucking on it.
The Soft Bone Rabbit's breathing was a little heavy.
In the master bedroom.
Qian Renjue lay between the two women.
Bibi Dong held his arm, leaning against his shoulder, her breathing even.
Qian Renxue lay a little higher, her arm around Qian Renjue's neck, lost in slumber.
Such a comfortable, soft, and fragrant environment.
However, Qian Renjue hadn't fallen asleep yet.
He slowly opened his eyes, his breathing steady. The softness around him made it difficult for his arms and body to move.
His mind stirred slightly, and a familiar voice sounded in his mind.
[Host holds points: 2165!]
[Four 'Mysterious Treasure Chests' have been redeemed. Remaining points: 165!]
[Would you like to open the treasure chests?]
[Ding! Opening the Mysterious Treasure Chests]
[Congratulations, Host, you have received the following rewards: Heart-Devouring Soul-Controlling Pill, Soul-Capturing Pearl (already used), Beast-Taming Collar, A Dream of Yellow Millet]
[Heart-Devouring Soul-Controlling Pill]: After acknowledging it with a drop of blood, it can be used to turn living people into living puppets that only obey the orders of the person whose blood they acknowledge. These living puppets possess intelligence, can grow, and are completely obedient.
[Soul-Capturing Pearl]: A Soul-Capturing Pearl that has already been used, containing the soul of an elder.
[Beast-Taming Collar]: When the collar is activated, the pet will not be controlled by any life other than its owner. The pet's life and death, its will... everything is under the owner's supervision and control.
Friendly reminder: There is no time limit for using the collar, and pets can be changed at any time. The pet's strength must not exceed the host's for the collar to be successfully worn.
[A Dream of Yellow Millet**: A one-time use ability. It randomly places the user in a certain spacetime within a worldline, allowing the user to interact with others within a dream. The user will live within the life of the interaction target's dream until either the target, or the user, dies in the dream.
Friendly reminder: A Dream of Yellow Millet is, after all, empty.
In the dream, aside from any points earned from the interaction target, the user cannot take away any physical objects, including memories.
"..."
Qian Renjue raised an eyebrow.
Why was there another used Soul-Capturing Pearl?
The Heart-Devouring Soul-Controlling Pill inside was a reward he'd received before.
As for the Beast-Taming Collar and the never-before-seen ability reward, A Dream of Yellow Millet, Qian Renjue was quite interested.
"Jue~"
Before Qian Renjue could think further.
Bibi Dong beside him let out a soft murmur, her fragrant breath exhaling gently.
Bibi Dong gently embraced Qian Renjue.
Her face, resting on his shoulder, slowly drew closer, her cheek rubbing against Qian Renjue's ear.
"Mmm!"
Her cherry lips lightly touched his neck, and Qian Renjue felt a slight tickle.
He turned his head slightly, and then leaned against Qian Renxue's soft embrace.
"Heh."
Qian Renjue gave a helpless chuckle.
He really didn't know who was the elder, Qian Renxue or Bibi Dong.
Wishing everyone a pleasant life!
