Chapter 2: New Century (Epilogue)
Chapter 618: The King of Winter Returns Home to Be Beaten
“Radishes, little radishes are acceptable!?”
“Connie too??”
Bai Yao was stunned. The last time she played with Connie, Connie barely reached her chest.
She was a little over 1.6 meters tall, meaning Connie was at most 1.5 meters…
And Xi Wei was so tall? Xi Wei was almost two meters!
But no matter what, Connie was an adult, while the little radishes were really small…
As people, one cannot, at least should not…
Ruo Yi calmly took a sip of coffee as she watched Bai Yao staring blankly.
Although her words were exaggerated, her attitude was very clear. Xi Wei would never lay a hand on the little radishes, so she was just using an example to add weight to her words.
It seemed to be effective. Bai Yao’s mind was clearly greatly impacted.
“When do you plan on being ‘dealt with’ by Master?” Lori asked straightforwardly, her tone gentle and somewhat seductive. “Do you want us to arrange a room for you on the top floor? That way, within three days, you’ll be…”
“No! Don’t!” Bai Yao blushed, tears welling up in her eyes. She said in a panic, “I’m sorry, I… I’m not mentally prepared yet!”
“Oh dear, don’t be shy. It’s only natural. Don’t worry, the process is only a little uncomfortable at the beginning. If you’re scared, I can provide guidance and treatment nearby.”
Lori moved closer and hooked Bai Yao’s chin.
Bai Yao shivered all over.
“No, no, no, no, no! Next time! Ahahaha! I… I’m leaving! Goodbye!”
She retreated several steps, pressing herself against the wall. Then, she bowed to Lori and Ruo Yi, bowed again, and a third time. Next, she spread her wings to fly, but didn’t notice that the window wasn’t open at all.
“Bang!” She hit the glass.
Lori: “(o°ω°o)”
Ruo Yi: “[・_・?]”
“Ouch, it hurts so much,” Bai Yao clutched her head and rolled on the ground.
“Don’t rush, let me heal you?”
Just as Lori was about to approach, Bai Yao flipped over from the ground like a hawk, pushed open the window, and flew away without looking back.
Only a few feathers drifted in the air.
Lori stood by the window, covering her mouth in surprise, because she saw a hint of red between Bai Yao’s two white “bread slices.”
Good heavens, Bai Yao was quite adventurous!
But why was she so shy?
Lori, holding a feather that had floated down, couldn’t figure it out.
“What do we do now?” Ruo Yi finally finished her coffee and gently placed the cup on the plate.
“Let’s wait until Master gets back. He’s always getting into trouble outside, so we’ll definitely have to teach him a lesson!”
Lori wrinkled her little nose, a smile tugging at the corners of her lips.
…
Meanwhile, Xi Wei, who had already shot down more than a dozen flies, suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
That was killing intent!
He turned his head but saw nothing behind him, only a vast expanse of wilderness.
This faint killing intent, which came quickly, also dissipated quickly, disappearing in an instant.
“How strange. I, the Legendary Knight, who dares to harbor killing intent against me? Are they tired of living! Heh heh!”
Xi Wei let out two cold laughs, dismissing it as his imagination.
He glanced at the sun in the sky, which was already setting in the west. By this time, Bai Yao should have finished dealing with her matters. He couldn’t stay outside forever, or Lori and Ruo Yi would worry. If Bai Yao hadn’t resolved the issue, he would have to go with her to deal with it.
“Returning to Winter Fort. Another beautiful day.”
Xi Wei rode his Dragon Blood Horse back. The flies in the wilderness finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Family, who understands!
Their fly race was treated in such a manner by a Legendary Knight for one day, and it was enough to brag about for a thousand years.
By the time Xi Wei slowly arrived at Winter Fort, it was already dusk. Smoke curled from the chimneys in Winter City, and the cool night wind, carrying the aroma of food, brought a hint of comfort to the knight on his Dragon Blood Horse.
Xi Wei dismounted, handed the Dragon Blood Horse to the butler, hesitated for a moment, and asked:
“Did anything special happen at Winter Fort today?”
“Anything special?” The butler pondered for a moment, then shook his head. “Your Majesty, everything was normal at Winter Fort today. Only Miss Connie has been looking for you. She said she has too much inventory that needs your help to digest, and if she doesn’t, there will be big problems. Nothing else…”
“Alright,” Xi Wei sighed and put a hand to his forehead helplessly.
He knew exactly what Connie meant.
As expected, he still had to help Connie clear her inventory regularly, otherwise he truly feared that Connie might explode one day.
“It seems Bai Yao didn’t resolve the problem. I wonder if she was rejected by Lori and Ruo Yi, or if she didn’t dare to go,” Xi Wei mused, stroking his chin as he walked towards Bai Yao’s room, feeling that the subsequent events might be a bit tricky.
As he reached the door of Bai Yao’s room, just as Xi Wei was about to enter, You Ye stopped him.
“Master, Bai Yao is feeling unwell today, so you…”
“Unwell? Why?” Xi Wei raised an eyebrow.
“After she returned from Lori and Ruo Yi, she has been hiding in her room, muttering to herself. My goodness, it’s too terrifying, no matter how I think about it, I can’t go in, and such things.” You Ye said expressionlessly, her tone completely flat.
“Oh? Then it looks like she has resolved the problem.”
Xi Wei breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed Lori and Ruo Yi had said something to Bai Yao that had severely impacted her worldview, and she needed some time for self-healing. It was best not to disturb her.
“Alright then, I won’t go in. Tell her if she has any questions, she can come to my office. She can fly, after all.”
“Understood, Master.”
Xi Wei nodded and turned to leave.
Next, he had to face Lori and Ruo Yi.
To say he wasn’t nervous would be a lie. He had seen how the two maids strictly guarded him on a daily basis.
Besides, people are selfish. He himself was a selfish person, so how could he expect Lori and Ruo Yi not to have their own little desires?
Returning to his room, the moment Xi Wei pushed the door open, two soft bodies like cats pounced into his embrace.
“Master ~ Welcome back ~” Lori’s voice was sickeningly sweet, and her pretty face wore a charming smile.
“Master ~ Where did you go to play today? Why didn’t you take us with you?”
On the other side, Ruo Yi also hooked his neck. Her lips were like fire, and she gently exhaled hot breath into his ear, teasing him.
What were they up to?
Were they testing an old hand like this?
“Ahem,” Xi Wei said, his face neither red nor his heart skipping a beat, and tentatively asked, “That… you know about Bai Yao’s matter?”
“We know ~ From now on, Master belongs to Bai Yao. Ruo Yi and I will be alone ~”
Lori hugged Xi Wei’s arm, her little bunny body pressed tightly against him. She pouted, looking as if she was about to cry.
“Yes, Master isn’t satisfied with us, and still wants to chase girls outside. We are so sad ~”
Ruo Yi walked to Xi Wei’s other side, pulling his other arm into her embrace, making it sink into her softness. She was tall and wearing high heels. Lightly standing on her tiptoes, she left a kiss mark on Xi Wei’s neck.
“What are you two talking about?” Xi Wei’s face showed a helpless bitter smile.
He finally understood. Ruo Yi and Lori were subtly giving him a hard time.
“Just say it! What compensation do you want? As long as your King of Winter can provide it!”
