"You rented a room with a narrow bed," Ling Qing Zhu protested in a flat voice before patting her pillow softly.


"That's because.... I will not move much while sleeping," Xiao Shuxiang defended himself.


Ling Qing Zhu snorted. "Hmph, don't you want to be close to me?"


"That's also one of them," Xiao Shuxiang replied without hesitation.


"Shameful," Ling Qing Zhu began to lie down beside his Guardian Guard.


Ling Qing Zhu's clothes were thick and he was also still wearing his veil while sleeping, even his sword remained his waist belt. She was clearly protecting herself even though the one beside her was her husband.


Xiao Shuxiang himself never bothered about the clothes made thick by his White Cat, let alone with the weapons that were still carried to sleep by this white-haired girl. All of that can be said to be a natural thing because most enemy attacks always come when things are off guard.


Xiao Shuxiang actually also often held a weapon while sleeping, it was his White Jade Flute. But ever since he had such an unnatural dream, even Xiao Shuxiang was no longer sleeping while holding his flute.


"..............."


"..............."


To Ling Qing Zhu. Honestly, she is happy to have a husband who never lies. This dazzling young man beside her did not hide her feelings at all. He so wanted to ask what he was like in Xiao Shuxiang's mind.


"........ White Cat,"


"Mmm?"


"White Cat,"


"Mmm, uh,"


"........ White Cat,"


Ling Qing Zhu turned his head and made a cold voice, "What are you calling for. Call once. Speak properly,"


"But I just want to call you,"


Ling Qing Zhu snorted and then reached out his hand, he closed his Guardian Guard eyes and said. "Close your eyes and sleep. You don't sleep, then I'll go."


Xiao Shuxiang did not put away Ling Qing Zhu's hand which closed his eyes and instead said. "White Cat, I've heard you say such words when you put Ya Bing'Er to sleep. You're still a bitch,"


"Then what do you want?"


"I want to hug you," Xiao Shuxiang was honest.


"Don't test your luck,"


"..............."


Xiao Shuxiang breathed slowly and then began to sleep. He didn't say anything anymore. Clearly, the White Cat's speech was a form of rejection.


Ling Qing Zhu began to distance his hands. He breathed slowly and noticed the facial lines of his Guardian Guardians.


Xiao Shuxiang was indeed an amazingly awesome figure. This handsome young man had long eyelashes and a stunning face. While in a state of sleep, his Guardian Master was very calm.


"Shuxiang," Ling Qing Zhu said softly. "Are you still having nightmares?"


Xiao Shuxiang opened his eyes slowly, he muttered. "Mm, sometimes when it's too deep sleep-I'll have nightmares. But how do you know?"


Xiao Shuxiang remembered never discussing about the Dream Devil at all in his White Cat. So you could say he was curious.


Ling Qing Zhu, "When young master Lan bathed you. You said you were drowning and it was bad,"


"Mm, that's bad. You don't do that again. You want to bathe me but the water is so cold. Anyone would definitely be shocked while sleeping and instead splashed into the water,"


".......... That's why you have to shower first."


"You're a grown man, there's no need to be afraid."


"My nightmares are so scary, White Cat. You don't pity me? Because of that dream, I had trouble sleeping and even harder to wake up. Aren't you going to help me?"


"..............."


Ling Qing Zhu exhaled and then said, "I often pat Ya Bing'Er's butt slowly to make her sleep-"


"White Cat," Xiao Shuxiang interrupted and immediately opened his eyes. He said, "You don't treat me as Ya Bing'Er. I'm not a child. I just want to be hugged,"


"White Cat," Xiao Shuxiang spoke again, "What can't be if I hug you? It's just a small request. Is it not possible?'


"Sleep, Shuxiang. I'll do it, so you'll just sleep."


Xiao Shuxiang blinked, "But I don't want to be patted on the buttocks like a child."


"I didn't do. Give me your hand,"


!!


Xiao Shuxiang simply complied. He honestly did not expect to be so close to his White Cat, let alone this girl who first asked him to lend a hand.


".............."


Xiao Shuxiang saw that his hand was indeed held by Ling Qing Zhu, even this white haired girl kept on flowing Qi for the blood flow within her body to run smoothly.


".............."


Xiao Shuxiang saw Ling Qing Zhu close his eyes. He felt warm at his blood flow, yet his mind branched slightly at this moment.


He had earlier caught Ling Qing Zhu talking to Lan Guan Zhi and was convinced that this girl was actually afraid. Yet strangely, Ling Qing Zhu remained asleep beside him and even held his hand.


"This girl is really weird. But.... It seems our closeness begins with holding hands." Xiao Shuxiang smiled faintly, "No problem. For now, just hold hands."

The night was getting late. Xiao Shuxiang closed his eyes, but was unable to sleep. The girl who had previously held her hand had now turned around and turned her back.


Xiao Shuxiang exhaled, he was usually able to sleep in just a matter of seconds-but at the moment he really could not. He started to get up and fix the blanket for Ling Qing Zhu.


"Haaahs... He indeed resembled a cat while sleeping," Xiao Shuxiang stared fixedly at the sleeping Ling Qing Zhu.


Ling Qing Zhu's long white hair was beautiful. Xiao Shuxiang picked up the piece of white hair and gently kissed it, his clear eyes shining with a cold light.


"It doesn't matter if you have to wait. No matter how long it takes, no problem. Someone who belongs to Xiao Shuxiang, will this Your Majesty treat it with great value."


Xiao Shuxiang smiled and slowly formed a thin wind around his body. The butterflies that emitted a faint white light seemed to be coming out from Xiao Shuxiang's back and more and more.


The butterfly came out through the window and now even Xiao Shuxiang had disappeared. The only one staying in the room was Ling Qing Zhu who was still asleep. The white-haired girl did not even realize that her Guardian Guard was no longer around.


Outside the inn, countless white-winged butterflies seemed to fly in groups. They adorned the night sky and continued flying into the western region of Chenqing City.


The flying insect entered a dense forest and was actually one of the forbidden forests. The location was plentiful in the Demonic Beast and even some of the trees that existed had vines that were alive.


The butterflies flew far into the depths of the forest and they arrived at a cave in front of which was a swamp of suckers. The atmosphere in the place is very gripping, especially with the air that turns out to contain toxins.


Inside the cave was a large Demonic Beast figure who appeared to be resting. But as if knowing something was breaking into his house-Demonic Beast began to open his eyes.
