Living Together

There is a type of butterfly called the "King Butterfly," whose males can smell the scent emitted by female butterflies from more than ten kilometers away.

Xia Yu's ability has an interesting aspect: it even differentiates between genders. For example, in this "marking" incident, Xia Yu first transformed into a female King Butterfly, Collection the hormones secreted by her, and applied them to Xiao He's hands. During the battle, she marked the two Raven brothers, and then Xia Yu transformed into a female King Butterfly to track them down.

Furthermore, Xia Yu is in the form of a "Humanoid King Butterfly," and the hormones she secretes have a much stronger scent than those of ordinary King Butterfly. This allows her to pinpoint the location of a target from hundreds of kilometers away after transforming into a male King Butterfly, leaving the two of them with nowhere to hide.

The reason for doing this was that the Special Response Department suspected that Raven had an inside agent within the Dragon Country; otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to bring three groups of people into the Dragon Country without being detected.

They had to cut off the other side's funding chain to prevent the same situation from happening again. To that end, they set up this "trap." Of course, the entire trap was based on the premise that "Yinglong" could easily defeat the Raven brothers.

In hindsight, it's now clear that the brothers dared to provoke us because their special Superpower allowed them to Plunder more power from the more enemies present.

Even if they Plunder power from others, they would never be a match for Yinglong.

Although there were some unforeseen circumstances, the Special Response Department's plan continued smoothly.

After leaving the venue, Xiao He first met up with Ye Wanqing, Cui Man, and others, and then determined the next step of the plan. At present, the Special Response Department is still tracking the two brothers. At this point, they could actually catch up with them and capture them, but they did not rush to make the pursuit. Instead, they planned to follow them for a while longer.

The hormones secreted by Xia Yu when she transforms into a female King Butterfly are undetectable to normal people, and because the amount is so large, simple washing is simply not enough to remove them. They can last on them for at least several days, so it is safe to track these two brothers.

The Special Response Department plans to monitor the two brothers for a few days to see who they will contact next.

Therefore, Xiao He's mission was temporarily accomplished. The next time he went out, it would be to truly capture the two brothers.

This battle with the two of them was more of a test and a performance; Xiao He didn't use his full strength, but the next time will be different.

"Have you found their real information?" After boarding the Helicopter, Xiao He kissed Ye Wanqing on the head and asked.

"Not yet, the information these two people left behind is fake." Ye Wanqing frowned and showed Xiao He the records she had found on her phone. "They have stayed in many countries, but the information is different each time."

"Don't worry, we plan to use another method," Cui Man comforted her. "These two people happen to know each other. Directly changing their names would alert them to your abilities, so we entered their information into the police database and issued arrest warrants for them. This way, we can use the wanted number to change their names, just like those people in prison."

Xiao He nodded, but it was basically certain that the two men's names were "Oliver" and "Ivan".

There are many reasons why we cannot find real information about these two people. One of the most likely reasons is that they were born in some small, war-torn country and their birth information was not registered, so they do not exist in the world.

Fortunately, they had specifically studied Ye Wanqing's abilities beforehand, so now they have an alternative name to change.

Xiao He was a little curious on the Helicopter: what kind of Superpower would he trigger the next time he encountered those brothers?

In fact, these brothers are quite strong. Their LV3 physical abilities allow them to handle most attacks, and their years of experience as mercenaries and their skillful techniques enable them to make good use of their Superpower. No wonder Zhang Ming and Yue Feng are no match for them.

If it weren't for Xiao He, these two would have been quite a problem. However, since these brothers can only rely on fists and feet to fight, Xie Haining should be able to handle them.

Today's mission was over, so Xiao He and Ye Wanqing could go home and wait for orders. After the Special Response Department's tracking mission was completed, he would then be dispatched to capture the two men. When he got home, Xiao He was still pondering the details of today's battle. In fact, he had learned a lot from the two brothers, such as how to defuse enemy attacks.

"Old Xiao, what are you thinking about?" Ye Wanqing asked, clinging to his back.

"I was thinking, enduring the weight of my breasts," Xiao He replied with a smile. Ye Wanqing pinched him angrily and said, "Leg fetish, huh?!"

"Hehe." Xiao He turned around, hugged Ye Wanqing, and kissed her. Ye Wanqing rested her chin on his chest, carefully observing his face, and asked, "Did you get hurt today? Those two were so vicious... When I was investigating their information today, I realized how terrible the things they did were. The kind of things that would be immediately censored if written down."

"Don't worry, with you here, I'm invincible," Xiao He patted her head and laughed.

"So... what do you want to eat tonight?" Ye Wanqing smiled, and Xiao He lifted her chin, savoring Ye Wanqing soft lips. The texture was so tender and smooth, like eating jelly, that he couldn't resist.

"Ouch!" Ye Wanqing snorted, frowned, and slapped him lightly. "Be gentle! You're so annoying..."

"Sorry, it was too delicious, I couldn't resist," Xiao He said with a slightly embarrassed smile.

"You're going to kiss my lips until they're swollen..." Ye Wanqing muttered, covering her mouth and glaring at him.

"But you asked me what I wanted to eat, so I ate it," Xiao He said matter-of-factly.

"Then I'll go cook for you, lest you actually eat it all later," Ye Wanqing said with a coquettish huff. Xiao He immediately got up and followed behind her. "What's good to eat today?"

"Didn't you say you like everything I make?" Ye Wanqing rolled her eyes at him and asked.

After dinner, the two went downstairs to feed the stray cats and dogs. That evening, Xiao He and Ye Wanqing watched TV series together in the master bedroom.

Of course, the original intention of watching the show has changed; it's basically just the two of them having intimate contact.

Now, Xiao He is no longer satisfied with feeling Ye Wanqing's sense of justice through the fabric.

"Old Xiao, can you promise me something?" Ye Wanqing sat in Xiao He, her face flushed as she mumbled. Xiao He asked curiously, "Tell me what it is first. I'm not the type to make empty promises."

"Could you... delete those ***** files on your computer? I don't like you looking at other women..." Ye Wanqing said, counting on her fingers. Xiao He readily nodded in agreement. "No problem."

No movie can compare to a real girlfriend. There's absolutely no reason to hesitate.

"Really? And we can't watch it anymore?" Ye Wanqing turned to look at him and asked, somewhat surprised.

"No problem." Xiao He kissed her on the tip of the nose. Ye Wanqing lowered her head and smiled, then said shyly, "Um... I know you guys have those kinds of problems to solve. After all, I'm your girlfriend, so... I'll help you with that once a week."

"Really?" Xiao He asked in surprise. Ye Wanqing blushed and said, "We'll use other methods to solve it... but only once, twice at most! I heard from the doctor that too many times is bad for your health. Once our relationship reaches that point, you won't have to hold back anymore."

"This deal is too good to pass up!" Xiao He couldn't help but exclaim, nodding repeatedly, "No problem!"

"Is it settled then?" Ye Wanqing asked, her lips pressed tightly together, a hint of unease in her eyes.

Xiao He knew that Ye Wanqing was, after all, a rather traditional girl, and besides, girls are often at a disadvantage in this regard, so it was normal for her to feel uneasy. Thinking of this, Xiao He suddenly felt a pang of sympathy for her.

"Don't worry, I will never force you to do anything you don't want to do," Xiao He said softly, holding her hand. "I swear to you, I will never force you. A long time ago, I decided that this girl in front of me would be my wife."

"Hehe..." Ye Wanqing blushed and lowered her head. "You're so annoying... I won't agree to marry you so easily."

"It's okay, you're only nineteen. The legal marriage age in our country is twenty for women. I'll ask you again when you turn twenty," Xiao He said with a smile. Ye Wanqing smiled and glared at him, then replied, "Well... since it's settled, why don't you move in with me from now on? Make the guest room available."

"Hmm--!" Xiao He responded with a laugh, drawing out the sound.

Ye Wanqing turned her head and glared at him. "What? Are you unhappy?"

"No, of course I'm happy." Xiao He kissed her on the cheek and smiled. "I was just thinking, after going around in circles, I ended up moving in to sleep with you again. It feels like our time has gone backwards."

"That's because it went from fake to real..." Ye Wanqing replied with a smile, rubbing her chubby little feet against his leg.

"Little Pufferfish, what are you laughing at?" Xiao He teased, wrapping his arms around her waist. Ye Wanqing playfully laughed and said, "Hehe, Old Xiao, your leg hair is so long, it's a little prickly on my feet."

"Is it to prick your feet or to warm them?" Xiao He said irritably. "You've actually wanted me to come and sleep with you for a while now, haven't you? Your hands and feet are always so cold, and you keep pressing yourself against me as soon as I get into bed. You just wanted me to come and be your hot water bottle, didn't you?"

"What? You claim to be a leg fetishist, yet you're always clinging to someone's 'righteousness' and can't put your eyes down? What's wrong with warming someone's feet?" Ye Wanqing retorted, unconvinced. Xiao He thought for a moment, then shrugged and said, "That makes sense... everything has a price."

"Hmph, good to know." Ye Wanqing nodded in satisfaction, then looked at him and asked, "It's getting late, shall we go to sleep?"

"Yes, go to sleep." Xiao He sighed and kissed her forehead.

However, this was, after all, Xiao He's first time sharing a bed with his lovely girlfriend, so naturally he was a little excited.

But for their relationship, this is a big step forward.

The next morning, when Xiao He opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was Ye Wanqing's peaceful sleeping face. Looking down slightly, he saw her radiant and righteous aura.

"This is too blissful," Xiao He couldn't help but exclaim, leaning over to gently kiss Ye Wanqing's forehead.

Having slept together all night, he was worried about having bad breath and didn't dare to kiss her directly on the lips. But this light kiss still woke Ye Wanqing up. She took a deep breath, squinted at him, still a little dazed.

"Good morning, Xiaoqing," Xiao He said with a smile, patting her little head.

"Ugh, so cold..." Ye Wanqing groaned, burying her face in his chest, then curling up in the blankets. "Old Xiao, hug me."

"So cute..." Xiao He thought to himself, and pulled Ye Wanqing into his arms.

Ye Wanqing stretched and casually placed her feet on his leg.

"Did you sleep well last night?" Xiao He asked, gently pinching her nose. Ye Wanqing giggled and nodded, "Mmm... it was very warm. Usually, I wake up freezing in the morning, get up to fill a hot water bottle to wake myself up, but if I don't get up, it's too cold."

As she spoke, Ye Wanqing hugged Xiao He and laughed happily, "Hehe, now we have a natural, constant-temperature hot water bottle..."

"And what about summer?" Xiao He asked tentatively. Ye Wanqing smiled sweetly, "Summer, stay away from me."

"Good grief, she uses you and then dumps you, what a scumbag." Xiao He rolled his eyes at her, annoyed.

"How is she a scumbag? She even helped you take care of your needs last night," Ye Wanqing muttered indignantly, "Although it took a while..."

"It's alright, she's a beginner after all. Take your time," Xiao He said with a chuckle, patting her head. Ye Wanqing lowered her head shyly and replied, "Mmm..."

Then, Ye Wanqing snuggled into his arms, hugging his waist and laughing, "It's so warm, I don't want to get up..."

"Then let's linger a little longer, anyway, there's nothing much to do this morning." Xiao He nodded with a smile, quite satisfied with the sense of justice he felt. Ye Wanqing looked up at him and smiled, "Are you hungry?"

"Actually... there is a little bit." Xiao He nodded.

Ye Wanqing smiled brightly at him, then stretched again and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek. "Then I'll get up and make you breakfast. I'll cook a pot of congee with preserved egg and lean pork, and steam two buns, okay?"

"That's wonderful." Xiao He sighed, holding Ye Wanqing in his arms. "It's so good to have you here..."

"Hehe." Ye Wanqing laughed happily, "You should get up quickly too, let's brush our teeth and wash our faces together."

Although the two haven't actually reached the point of having sex, they have indeed become much closer through last night's events, since they now know each other's physical structure quite well.

While they were brushing their teeth together, Xiao He noticed Ye Wanqing smiling at him in the mirror, so he asked, his words slightly mumbled, "What? Have you been wanting to sleep together for a while now?"

"Yeah, because I'm afraid of the cold," Ye Wanqing said with a smile while brushing her teeth. "Back in my hometown, the coldest it gets is around ten degrees Celsius, but here it's so cold I'm questioning my existence."

"Then you should have said so earlier." Xiao He glared at her. "What's the big deal about such a small matter?"

"It's not too late now," Ye Wanqing said cheerfully, then rinsed her mouth and turned to Xiao He, pouting her lips.

Xiao He rinsed his mouth, spat out the toothpaste foam, and kissed her little lips. "Sweetie, go wash your face."

As Ye Wanqing wrung out the towel, Xiao He smoothed down the stray hairs sticking up on the top of her head. "Look at your cute little head, so many tufts of hair are sticking up... I've realized I actually prefer short hair."

"Hmph, you just like me," Ye Wanqing said smugly. "It's just a case of loving someone because of them."

"Well said." Xiao He nodded with a smile, patting her little bottom. "You're so smart."

"Hehe." Ye Wanqing laughed happily, smearing a towel on his face and wiping it vigorously, "Time to wash your face."

After washing up, Ye Wanqing went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast, while Xiao He went back to the guest room to move his things back to the master bedroom. He didn't have much stuff—just clothes, a water glass, and his desktop computer. Ye Wanqing's computer was a laptop, so her desk was empty, and his desktop computer fit perfectly on it.

He quickly put his personal belongings in the master bedroom, then plugged in all the computer cables, turned it on and tested it. After confirming that the computer was working properly, Xiao He opened his E drive and clicked on one of the hidden folders.

"Goodbye, my treasured collection of many years." Xiao He opened one of his hidden folders and muttered to himself, then deleted all three hundred gigabytes of movies and TV shows without hesitation, without the slightest bit of reluctance.

After all, seeing more is never as good as experiencing it firsthand. Although Ye Wanqing was a novice and quite clumsy, Xiao He felt that her clumsiness was precisely her most endearing quality. With a girlfriend like her, he no longer needed these things.

After thinking for a moment, Xiao He turned around, opened his browser, and cleared all suspicious traces and bookmarks before coming to the kitchen, where Ye Wanqing was stirring the preserved egg and lean pork congee.

"Xiaoqing, I'm all packed," Xiao He said with a smile.

"All packed? Have you taken everything? Don't forget anything, okay? Guests might sleep over there later," Ye Wanqing asked curiously. Xiao He nodded, and Ye Wanqing smiled sweetly at him, saying, "That means we'll really be living together from now on."

Xiao He felt his heart was bathed in honey. He stepped forward, hugged Ye Wanqing, and kissed her on the cheek. "I love you."

"What's wrong? Why are you suddenly so clingy?" Ye Wanqing poked his cheek, then instructed, "Old Xiao, take the fried eggs and steamed buns over first. The porridge will be ready soon."

"Okay!" Xiao He readily agreed, carrying the steamed buns and fried eggs to the living room.

Then Ye Wanqing brought over a pot of porridge, and the two sat down at the table.

Looking at Ye Wanqing sitting opposite him, Xiao He couldn't help but chuckle.

"Eat up, Old Xiao?" Ye Wanqing asked with a smile. Xiao He responded, then stood up and gave her a quick kiss on the lips. Ye Wanqing said, blushing and angry, "I said breakfast! Can't you be serious for once! You're trying to be a pervert before you've even eaten!"

"No, I just couldn't resist because you're so cute," Xiao He replied with a smile.

"Shameless..." Ye Wanqing glanced at him sideways, then burst into laughter herself. "Alright, eat up. After we finish eating, we'll go out and buy some groceries; we're almost out of supplies at home."
