Meanwhile.
Gu Yue finally began to recover from the state she had been in, when her heart had nearly leaped out of her chest.
Her face was still red, the blush stretching from her cheeks to the roots of her ears. Even her large silver-purple eyes still held a watery sheen from her earlier tears.
She nestled quietly beside Lin An and said nothing for a long while.
Only after her emotions had settled completely did she slowly lower her head.
"I'm hungry..."
Her voice was very soft.
After speaking, she sniffled gently, the corners of her mouth drooping.
Looking at her like this, Lin An couldn't help smiling, finally breathing a sigh of relief.
Finally managed to soothe her.
"Come on, let's get breakfast."
Lin An casually stroked her head.
Gu Yue's eyes instantly curved into happy crescents, and her little head, which had been lowered a moment ago, immediately pressed into his palm.
She nuzzled it once, then again.
Her soft silver hair slipped between Lin An's fingers.
She narrowed her eyes, even letting out a faint rumble in her throat from sheer pleasure.
Lin An: "..."
She's getting more and more like a pet.
He couldn't even be bothered to comment. He simply slipped both hands beneath Gu Yue's armpits and scooped the entire pillow-sized little milk dragon into his arms.
Gu Yue curled up naturally, resting all four little paws against Lin An, her tail hanging limply behind her. Clearly, she had grown completely accustomed to this treatment.
Yet after only two steps, Gu Yue suddenly raised her head, her comfortably narrowed eyes flying wide open.
She seemed to have abruptly realized a very serious problem.
"Wifey."
"Hmm?"
Lin An looked down.
Gu Yue tilted her little head up at him, her expression gradually turning serious.
