Because Nian JiMo was really busy with work, Yang QiQi didn’t stay in the office for long. And as soon as she came out, Ling Yue, who was waiting beside the door, took her into his arms and kissed her rosy lips.
Ling Yue’s movements were not at all fast, he was waiting for her reaction. If she resisted or felt unhappy, he would stop immediately. Yang QiQi realized this and also that he was trying to show everyone that he was a Guardian Beast she acknowledged herself, especially to Nian JiMo.
This Beast World’s law stipulated that a female must have five or more male beasts as her spouse. Although Nian JiMo himself brought Zheng Shou to her side and while they were still in the Saintess Forest, she also once thought about making Mei BaoQin her male beast, Yang QiQi was still a little nervous. Even if the possibility was very small, she was still afraid that he would not be satisfied with her action of ‘acting first and reporting later’.
However, she had already acknowledged Ling Yue; there was no possibility of her letting him go. So, after the initial surprise, her body relaxed.
Ling Yue was still relatively shy. He just kissed her lightly before letting go and looking at Nian JiMo. His expression seemed to say: ‘Didn’t you tell me to stand beside QiQi without resorting to tricks? See, I did it.’
Nian JiMo was expressionless as usual. So nobody knew what his actual reaction was. He nodded to Ling Yue and then turned to Yang QiQi: “I understand. I should be able to return early tonight. Leave some dinner for me.”
Hearing his calm voice, Yang QiQi breathed a sigh of relief. However, if she were to think about it again, Ling Yue was a good cook and had a docile personality. Among the three, he was the most popular. Nian JiMo and Zhengzhou must have accepted him one step ahead of her, right?
She didn’t know that after Nian JiMo watched them leave when he released the L-shaped metal doorknob he had been holding, it had turned into a lump without any form.
“Lord, these documents need to be approved.” The attendant who was waiting in the HallMaster’s office appeared in time with a stack of documents and an ambiguous smile on his face. “Lady QiQi was here again? Hehe, Lord is indeed our idol ah! I have never heard of a Guardian Beast as liked as yourself.”
Delivering meals ah, and even checking up at his workplace ah, they are truly affectionate!
Nian JiMo motioned him to put the documents on the table and he pointed to the doorknob: “Find someone to change it.”
“Oh~ which mean person did this ah? A good handle is crushed like this…” Suddenly, the attendant recalled that this was Nian JiMo’s office. Moreover, since the handle was inside the office room too, the ‘perpetrator’ could only be Nian JiMo himself. He seemed to have cursed Lord Nian JiMo as a ‘mean person just now. Urk- he won’t be torn apart by that brutal male now, would he?
“Ah! Actually, this handle should have been replaced a long time ago. It didn’t match the style of this room at all ah. It got crushed just in time. Lord, you must be busy now. I’ll go find someone to replace it right away.” The attendant smiled at the icy Nian JiMo guiltily and rushed out. But of course, he didn’t forget to close the door.
Nian JiMo tapped his pen on the table: what exactly was he dissatisfied with?! The laws of the Empire specified that a female must have five or more males. Before, he also took the initiative to introduce Zheng Shou and Mei BaoQin to Yang QiQi himself. Even now, Ling Yue, Xiang BuChen, and Tu Jin who appeared beside her passed through himself. As for his QiQi, from the beginning to the end, she never treated him coldly. Could it be that, as Wa Hu said, because QiQi was too good to him, he began to get selfish and wanted her all to himself?
N-no. That way of thinking must not be entertained. In addition to the rules that absolutely would not permit this, QiQi’s current relationship with those male beasts wouldn’t let her give up on them.
So what if Zheng Shou, Ling Yue, Xiang BuChen, Tu Jin, and even that Xu are added? He just needed to be the most important person in her heart.
While Nian JiMo was sorting out his thoughts in the office, Tu Jin suggested going for a walk on the street when they were returning to the house.
“QiQi, let’s go. You haven’t gone out to have fun since you arrived at the Saintess Hall. Some time ago, you were training hard to improve your strength, and now you are participating in a competition. Actually, you still need to relax occasionally. Our instructor said that it is important to strike a balance between work and rest in order to be more efficient.”
Unlike the other women from her previous world, Yang QiQi had never liked to go shopping. From her point of view, this activity called shopping was time-consuming and costly. If one had free time, it was better to use that for training ah! However, looking at Tu Jin, and even Xiang BuChen and Ling Yue’s eager expressions, she felt that she should really change her previous life’s ‘workaholic’ habits. Thus, she decided to do another type of group activity with her team today.
“Okay ah, should we go now or after lunch?”
Hearing her agree, the eyes of all the beasts lit up.
“Go out, go out and eat. Although Ling Yue’s cooking is top-notch, even better than those chefs in the hotels and restaurants, eating out occasionally is an emotion~”
Yang QiQi chuckled: Little rascal, you still know about ’emotion’.
However, considering that Ling Yue has been cooking for them every day, this afternoon would be regarded as a holiday for him.
——————
[ Ling Yue ~(@^_^@)~: Ever since I was upgraded to a proper Guardian Beast, my status has improved rapidly. This situation can be regarded as being ‘substantially changed’.
Yang QiQi grabbed the corner of his clothes and acted coquettishly: “ Ah Ling, I want to eat fish balls…”
Ling Yue immediately put on her apron and ran into the kitchen, fully displaying his capabilities…
( Aima , little friend Ling Yue, are you sure your status has ‘substantially changed’?) ]
