When it ca to sharing a bed, the two were well-versed.
Fully clothed, they lay side by side. Li Wenli couldn’t help but muse, "Once things are settled this ti, let’s have a wedding, alright? It’s ti to make it official, wouldn’t you agree?"
"Alright," Bai Junjun answered straightforwardly.
"?" This ti, the fox was caught off guard. He’d only thrown out his usual snarky comnt and fully expected to be sent flying by the young lady’s usual kick.
Instead, what had she just said?
"You... What did you just say?"
"Marriage, wasn’t that what you suggested?" Bai Junjun looked at him curiously. "Was it just casual talk? If so, forget it."
"No, no, no!" Li Wenli instantly pulled Bai Junjun into his arms. "I’m serious. I think we should have tied the knot ages ago."
That Yuwen Jun fellow was always lurking in the shadows, looking to pounce. Marrying the young lady sooner would crush his hopes once and for all. Besides, a fresh start was on the horizon—why not begin this new life as husband and wife? Truly embrace the new Chapter.
Thinking about the future brought a grin to Li Wenli’s face. He kissed the young lady lightly and promised, "I won’t let you down. I’ll devote my life to serving you, no matter what."
Bai Junjun raised her eyes to et his seriously, then replied with a particularly MAN tone, "I won’t let you down either."
Li Wenli burst into laughter. If he could, he’d rush back to the Ownerless Land now and arrange their wedding without delay.
Neither of them was particularly fussy. Having settled on such a life-changing agreent, the fox finally felt justified in holding his fiancée close without feeling any guilt.
The weather had already shifted to late autumn, and having soone to lean on made things considerably warr. Besides, Li Wenli carried a certain mysterious magnetic field that put Bai Junjun at ease—it might just be the unique sense of security shared between High-rank Special Ability Users.
All in all, Bai Junjun didn’t reject the idea. She had long grown accustod to having the fox by her side, so she quickly drifted into sleep.
Later that night, the two quietly climbed out through the window without disturbing anyone.
Speaking of County Magistrate Fat Ball, ever since he was stripped of power and confined, he’d decided to cut his losses and take it easy. This tiny world of the backyard beca his retreat.
At the mont, the backyard housed five people.
County Magistrate Fat Ball, the Useless Son, the Kindhearted Butler, the Smart Adviser, and Xiao Shan.
Although County Magistrate Fat Ball had been captured due to protecting Xiao Shan, everyone understood the situation and didn’t bla him. The group simply lived here in a state of mutual understanding.
That said, not everything was harmonious. At least County Magistrate Fat Ball and the Useless Son regularly found themselves embroiled in petty squabbles, leading to chaos.
The butler and advisers had grown used to their dynamic, so no one was particularly bothered.
Xiao Shan, having initially been filled with worry, had gradually adapted. Of course, his concerns remained, largely for his father, grandfather, and uncles.
If his grandfather, the magistrate, hadn’t shielded him that day, Xiao Shan would have ended up behind bars as well.
Yet, Xiao Shan would rather endure hardship alongside his father. Now that he was the only one outside, he was trapped in a constant emotional tornt.
On one sleepless night, Xiao Shan even found himself gazing at the moon, silently wishing for Sister Junjun and Brother Fox to co to their rescue.
Yet half a month had slipped by in the blink of an eye. Xiao Shan’s hopes had diminished over ti, leaving him quieter, gloomier, and far more dispirited. County Magistrate Fat Ball was deeply worried, yet no solution ca to mind. rely keeping Xiao Shan safe was a feat in itself. Now, all he could do was pray that heaven would show rcy and grant them safety through this ordeal.
That evening, after finishing their al and preparing for rest, their vision suddenly blurred. Then, two figures seed to leap into their yard.
"!"
In broad daylight, burglars in the County Magistrate’s residence?! Outrageous!
