Xiao Shuxiang's eyes slowly opened. He rubbed his eyes and then turned around only to meet the huge head of the Moon Tiger that was still soundly asleep.
Lan Xiao had soft, soft, warm fur. It feels really lazy to wake up. Xiao Shuxiang covered his mouth as he yawned. He scratched his non-itchy head as he began to wake up. The thing was, he sat down for only a moment before leaning back on Lan Xiao's body.
The sound of Xiao Shuxiang's room door opening and a person dressed in white was seen walking in. The toneless voice of a girl instantly sounded.
"You awake?"
Xiao Shuxiang could only clearly see who was coming. He lazily replied, "I still want to sleep, White Cat. Ten minutes to go,"
"Well wake. It's not good if you open your eyes and go back to sleep. Your head could hurt. Let's get up,"
Ling Qing Zhu patted the young man on the shoulder in front of him and tried to wake this person up. He even pinched Xiao Shuxiang's cheek and pulled the Guardian Guardians' nose.
"White Cat, no. I'm really still sleepy,"
"Shuxiang, wakeup. Come,"
Xiao Sbuxiang lightly brushed off his White Cat hand which pinched back and played his cheek. In this condition, he does not seem to want to be invited to play.
"Xiang'Er," Ling Qing Zhu shook the shoulder of his Guardian Guard. He shook Xiao Shuxiang's body and actually became a bully.
Xiao Shuxiang grimaced and spontaneously grabbed onto Ling Qing Zhu's arm, pulling him until the girl fell into his arms. With her feet, she hugged Ling Qing Zhu like a bolster and made the white-haired girl freeze.
"Shuxiang, release-"
"You shut up or I kiss you."
"Your feet are heavy. I'm not a roll, so let go."
"................"
"Shuxiang, please,"
"................"
"Not shameless,"
Xiao Shuxiang did not say anything. His eyes were closed, but he smiled faintly as he felt the girl beside him no longer protesting or moving in rebellion. He even tightened his embrace and his White Cat remained silent.
Ling Qjng Zhu blinked. He actually did not dare to move in this kind of situation. But a moment later, he looked up and noticed the sleeping face of the young man beside him.
"Shuxiang, are you sleeping?"
"............. Mn,"
"Young Master Lan is looking for you,"
".............. Leave it alone," Xiao Shuxiang's eyes remained closed as he said, "I want to be with you for a while."
"................" Ling Qing Zhu noticed the handsome face of his Guardian Protector. Seen this close, Xiao Shuxiang's face was truly beautiful and dazzling.
"Shuxiang," Ling Qing Zhu opened his voice. "In the Upper Cultivation Realm back then... Why did you leave without saying anything?"
"............. Mn,"
"Shuxiang, please,"
"............ You must be very worried. It's my fault" Xiao Shuxiang rubbed his White Cat's head while he was still closing his eyes.
"................" Ling Qing Zhu did not say anything. His silence and even his completely motionless reaction made Xiao Shuxiang slowly open his eyes again.
The views of these two people met immediately. Ling Qing Zhu was still putting on an expressionless face, yet her eyes that were as bright as sky-blue and snow-white skin made her look extraordinarily beautiful. On the other hand, Xiao Shuxiang was undoubtedly the owner of a gentle face with beautiful good looks.
Ling Qing Zhu reached out and rubbed the corner of his Guardian Eyes. He seemed to help this young man clear the edges of his eyes which clearly looked like a person who had just woken up.
"It's weird.." Xiao Shuxiang muttered softly.
"............ Why?"
"It feels like I'm dreaming... You can see you this close,"
"Go and wash your face. You can tell if this is a dream or not,"
"I don't want to..." Xiao Shuxiang grabbed onto Ling Qing Zhu's hand which could somehow be so mischievously pinching her cheek.
"Who shamelessly pulled and hugged me?"
"............ Xiao Shuxiang,"
"Mn," Ling Qing Zhu muttered softly.
Xiao Shuxiang turned around. He let go of his embrace and slept on his back while looking up at the ceiling of his room. He said, "Considered again... This is the first time I've been this close to you. I feel so weird... You're really a White Cat, aren't you?"
"............. You still don't believe it?"
"Of course not. I feel like it's going to snow even before the season. You're a big surprise,"
Ling Qing Zhu woke up. He fixed his sitting position and calmly said, "If you don't boast too much about yourself and act embarrassing, maybe I can get closer to you."
"White Cat..." Xiao Shuxiang turned his head, "That's not pride. It was gratitude for all the talents and advantages that the heavens gave me. Oh, my gosh. I'm so amazing."
"You're doing it again,"
"How is it that this Venerable Xiao Shuxiang does not boast of himself when I have what to be proud of. Even I'm so proud to have a wife like you, too,"
"............ I'm impressed,"
"But, White Cat. Seriously. This is really strange," Xiao Shuxiang woke up and was in a sitting position. He patted her on the cheek and then looked at the white-haired girl before him. She said, "Why didn't you rebel at all when I hugged you? You're not usually like this either. What was? Did something happen or did something bother you?"
Ling Qing Zhu noticed Xiao Shuxiang and breathed slowly. His voice was toneless as he said, "How can I rebel. You hug too hard,"
"I think I could've hugged you..." Xiao Shuxiang was thinking about it when Ling Qing Zhu suddenly stood up and gently rubbed his head. He was of course surprised.
Ling Qing Zhu said, "Clean yourself. I'll wake Lan Xiao up,"
"................" Xiao Shuxiang blinked. He was astonished by the attitude of this beautiful girl. Ling Qing Zhu was indeed someone who was difficult for him to guess.
This white-haired girl could act very cold and as if she did not care, but in the moment she expected nothing... This figure actually approached and behaved so well.
Xiao Shuxiang scratched his non-itchy head. He watched Ling Qing Zhu who seemed to be trying to wake Lan Xiao, the Moon Tiger.
Xiao Shuxiang stood up, he walked towards the bulkhead and turned around to notice his White Cat back. He's still very astonished. He even peeked at the girl when she was behind a bulkhead.
"................"
Ling Qing Zhu did not say anything. He just stared at Xiao Shuxiang as his Guardian Guardians were heard descending into the bathtub. In a position like this, he certainly only saw a wooden bulkhead.
This girl had actually never made a violent rebellion, even when Xiao Shuxiang was hugging or holding her hand. He simply snapped verbally, never actually using his hands to push Xiao Shuxiang away.
Even if there was a condition where he made a push, it was because Xiao Shuxiang started saying words that made his heart almost jump and it felt embarrassing for him. Ling Qing Zhu was not dislikeful, he was simply less used to it.
The Moon Tiger itself could finally be awakened. He turned back into a 7-year-old boy and appeared to put on a sleepy face like Xiao Shuxiang before him.
"Aunt Qing Zhu.." Lan Xiao rubbed his eyes. He yawned and made Ling Qing Zhu breathe slowly.
"Go and wash your face,"
"Where's my A-Xi mother?" Lan Xiao was instead searching for Xiao Shuxiang's whereabouts and of course Ling Qing Zhu replied that the figure this little boy was looking for was cleaning up.
Lan Xiao unhesitatingly walked towards the bulkhead and heard Xiao Shuxiang's voice. Ling Qing Zhu remained in place and blinked at the young man's conversation with the lispy boy.
"Mother A-Xiang. A-Xiao's gonna take a shower, too,"
"I told you to call, 'Sister'."
"Mother A-Xiang,"
"Yes my. Take off your clothes and get in here. Next time you call A-Yuan, 'Mother' how?"
"don't want. Father Yuan, remain Father Yuan. A-Xiang's mother, is A-Xiang's mother."
"Who taught you this actually, hm?"
Ling Qing Zhu blinked. He heard the rustling sound of water and did not know what his Guardian behind the bulkhead was doing, let alone being together with Lan Xiao.
