Chapter 242

The bedroom suddenly went dark, with only a sliver of moonlight allowing Leon to barely see the person next to him.

She lay on her side, took the large teddy bear that Leon had given her, and hugged it to her chest.

Leon knew that she had a habit: after handing in her assignments and entering a period of deep sleep, she always wanted to hug something. Only then could she fall asleep peacefully.

She usually holds him in her arms. After all, their "marital life" is very harmonious. It's normal to fall asleep in each other's arms after a lot of work—although she'll still be stubborn the next day.

But tonight she was hugging a teddy bear.

It seems there's quite a bit of resentment in them.

Leon hesitated for a moment, then turned to the side, flattened the teddy bear's head, and looked at Losweiser behind it.

"Let's chat for a bit."

Losweiser said coldly, "Let go of my bear."

Leon awkwardly pursed his lips and sheepishly withdrew his hand.

After a while, through the teddy bear, he said softly, "Sorry... I've made you clean up my mess again. I should have listened to you and taken my medicine."

There was no sound coming from behind the teddy bear.

After a brief silence, Leon said again, "You should take some medicine tomorrow too, I'm afraid I'll infect you."

"Humans and dragons do not infect each other."

Your wife rejected your concern and instead threw out her own made-up biological knowledge at you.

"Is that so..."

Leon muttered to himself, then suddenly realized something, "If humans and dragons can't infect each other, why do you keep human cold medicine on your bedside table?"

The Queen's heart skipped a beat, and her face flushed red in the darkness.

Fortunately, the light was dim and Leon couldn't see it because of the teddy bear.

"Mind your own business, I can let go whenever I want."

In fact, besides cold medicine, there are also fever reducers, gastrointestinal medicines, insomnia pills, painkillers... all of which are ingested by humans.

In the Dragon Race, obtaining these things is extremely difficult. Losweiser went to great lengths to gather these commonly used medicines for human life.

However, she wasn't doing this so that some Dragon Slayer Hero would thank her.

She prepared these medicines simply because...

Forehead...

Because...

The bedside table is too empty, so I'm looking for something to fill it.

Yes, that's it.

Okay, so I'm just worried about that jerk, afraid he'll get sick, afraid he'll be uncomfortable, so what!

The Queen raced, and the more she thought about it, the more embarrassed she became. Her hands unconsciously tightened around the teddy bear in her arms.

But the next second, a warm touch suddenly came from the cold back of my hand.

His palms weren't exactly smooth and delicate; after all, they were the hands of a soldier, covered with calluses and scars from years of fighting.

But every time she was held or grasped by this hand, Losweiser always felt an indescribable sense of security.

She slowly released the teddy bear that had been squeezed out of shape.

She wanted to reciprocate Leon's offer to hold her hand, but she couldn't bring herself to do it.

"Can I... take the bear away?"

Losweiser's mind stirred slightly, but she didn't answer; she simply waited quietly.

Before long, Leon slowly pulled the teddy bear out of her arms.

The hand that was covering Losweiser's hand slowly moved to her palm, and regardless of her consent, directly inserted its fingers between her fingers.

In the end, they held hands.

The couple finally faced each other and saw each other's faces.

Losweiser scoffed, "I didn't give you permission to hold my hand."

But she didn't refuse.

Leon chuckled. "What can we do? It's already stuck to your hand, we can't shake it off."

He shook his interlaced hands, but couldn't shake them off—because he was deliberately holding them very tightly.

Losweiser kicked his shin from under the covers. "Tch, scoundrel, shameless."

"Yes, Your Majesty the Queen is absolutely right."

Losweiser rolled her eyes at him. "I'm not talking to you anymore. I'm so tired. I want to sleep."

He said he was going to sleep, but he didn't close his eyes.

Leon knew what she was waiting for.

"Do you want to sleep with me in your arms?" Leon asked.

"Beg me."

Leon smiled. "Please."

"Hmph, even if you beg me, I won't—hey, you really are... really enough, Casmod."

Leon didn't wait for her to continue being stubborn; he went straight up and hugged her tightly.

Losweiser struggled symbolically for a moment, but quickly gave up and let Leon hold her.

The Queen's smile at that moment was harder to suppress than an AK.

If you're going to put on an act, you have to go all the way. This is just a little bit of fun between husband and wife.

One O easy ⑦si ⑸ Jiu Shi ⑼ to say, "This Queen is in a good mood today."

"So?"

"You are permitted to accompany me on a border patrol."

"Dragon Queen, if you want to go on a date with me, just say so. You don't have to beat around the bush."

Today, Losweiser changed into a relatively neat and simple pantsuit. Her long legs, which were usually hidden under long skirts, were now accentuated by the tight-fitting trousers, making them look curvaceous, alluring, and sexy.

Of course, she certainly didn't intend to dress so provocatively, but unfortunately, she has such a great figure that she looks like this no matter what she wears.

Listening to that scoundrel spouting such nonsense, Losweiser rolled her eyes at him.

"What date? Dream on. Anna will be with you, along with some maids and guards."

Oh, so it seems this border patrol isn't an excuse for a secret rendezvous.

Leon shrugged. "Then you guys go ahead. Why did you invite me?"

"As Silver Dragon Prince, shouldn't he at least try to make his presence felt?"

"No, I want to stay home and take care of the children."

"A grown man is born between heaven and earth, how can he take care of a child every day?" Losweiser continued to try to persuade him.

But as the saying goes, "once bitten, twice shy, "Leon is now basically immune to Losweiser's provocations.

He still spoke in a dismissive tone, "I just stayed home with the kids today."

Leon thought that now that things had been said this far, Losweiser should give up the idea of taking him out with her.

Unexpectedly, this Dragon Queen was unusually patient this time.

"But you've been staying at home for too long, you should go out for a walk and get some fresh air."

"My last cold was probably because I stayed home too long and didn't exercise regularly," Losweiser said.

It would have been better if the topic of his cold hadn't been brought up; as soon as it was, General Leon would get furious.

"The last time I caught a cold was because you locked me on the balcony until the wee hours of the morning." (Wu)

"Who told you to be so talkative? I don't care, you have to leave today."

Oh dear, she's still being unreasonable here.

If the Dragon Queen had tried to persuade him kindly, Leon might have given her some face and gone with her.

But judging from the tone and attitude, it was clearly a forceful order being given to him. (Strange)

This little evil dragon is utterly upside down!

Leon sat down directly on the sofa in the living room, rooted to the spot, and said, "I'm not going."

The couple is at it again. (Lin)

Losweiser opened her mouth, about to continue "intimidating" Leon.

But as the words were about to come out, her mind raced, and she suddenly changed her mind, saying, "Seven..."

"Go ahead, just consider it keeping me company."

Upon hearing this, Leon was taken aback. Lu

'Consider it keeping me company.' (1)

Oh~~~

So all that nonsense about "Silver Dragon Prince trying to make his presence known" and "catching a cold because I've been staying home all day" was just a cover for this line, "Just keep me company."

Very good, that fits my stereotype of you, the Silver Dragon Queen.

They don't speak their minds directly; they're awkward and arrogant.

Leon smugly hummed twice.

"Since you put it that way, then I'll go with you. But don't get me wrong, I just suddenly realized that I should definitely make my presence known to your people."

Well, that fits my stereotype of you, Casmod, perfectly.

She responds better to gentle persuasion than force, and her stubbornness is as solid as an iron plate.

But it didn't matter; Losweiser was too lazy to expose his little scheme now.

Exposing it only brings temporary pleasure;

If we don't expose him and let him keep being stubborn, we can enjoy the satisfaction for life.

After the couple finished packing, they headed to the border of the territory, accompanied by Anna and several maids and guards.

Patrolling the border is a regular part of Losweiser's monthly job.

Logically speaking, with such a vast territory, as the Queen of a tribe, she wouldn't need to descend every month.

It's perfectly acceptable to delegate the task to trusted subordinates.

It's like the company's chairman can't possibly go to the security booth every month and chat with the Queen about how many delivery guys were driven away and how many illegally parked shared bikes were moved.

That's unrealistic.

Losweiser is, after all, a top-tier workaholic who insists on doing everything herself.

Of course, Leon already knew she was a workaholic, so he wasn't surprised.

What he truly admired about Losweiser was that she could balance her demanding work schedule with taking good care of her family.

Whether it's her three daughters or her fake husband, Losweiser handles everything with ease.

She doesn't even bring the stress of her daily work home.

Leon had never seen her so depressed and withdrawn after returning to her room due to work stress.

This is easier said than done.

No one can guarantee that they won't be overwhelmed by pressure and emotions, right?

But Losweiser did just that.
