The next day
Luo Beishi handed Huo Cixiao a neatly folded scarf that was half red and half black.
"Sorry, I took the liberty of making this decision, but I think you'll like it."
The consequence of being liked by Huo Cixiao is that she can't be spared even in broad daylight.
Luo Beishi felt aches and pains in his back and legs, while Huo Cixiao was simply inhuman! Was he really that happy?!
System: "Ding! Congratulations, host, on completing the final mission! Congratulations, host, on regaining your freedom! Congratulations, host, on finding a good match! Wishing you happiness every day from now on."
"Waaaaah, host, we can't bear to Tongtong with you!"
Luo Beishi: "Nonsense, you're clearly impatient and can't wait. Stop acting."
System: "Hehe, host, see you again in the martial world!"
Luo Beishi's nose tingled slightly. "Goodbye. All good things must come to an end, and I'm not reluctant to part with you."
System: "Host, I hope you'll meet another host as intelligent as you in the Tongtong. Goodbye."
Luo Beishi: "Goodbye..."
While taking a bath, his body instantly felt much more relaxed; that invisible constraint was gone.
Huo Cixiao hugged him, rested his head on his shoulder, and asked gently, "Wife, what's wrong?"
Luo Beishi's voice was a little hoarse, and it was hard to tell whether it was from shouting or from feeling uncomfortable.
"They're Tongtong gone, boohoo..."
Tears fell into the bathtub and onto the rose petals.
Parting is indeed painful.
Huo Cixiao hugged him tightly, "Wife, you still have me..."
Luo Beishi suddenly felt a sharp pain in his neck, as if someone had bitten him. "Ouch, you bit me again!"
"Honey, I don't want you to think about someone else, my teeth hurt."
Luo Beishi: "..."
One week later
Luo Beishi and Huo Cixiao were invited to Lan Li's wedding. To everyone's surprise, Yaya, who had run away from her wedding, was wearing a wedding dress again, only this time the bride was a woman instead of a man.
Luo Beishi was so shocked his jaw almost dropped.
Lan Li looks so cool in her black wedding dress!
Luo Beishi chose to help from the side, and Huo Cixiao stayed by his side as well.
The guests were initially unaware that Huo Da would be there, and his sudden appearance only heightened the already tense atmosphere.
Huo Cixiao hugged Luo Beishi, "Wife, am I really that scary? I clearly smiled."
Luo Beishi comforted him, "They must be nervous because you're so handsome."
Huo Cixiao wagged his tail like a big dog, "My wife is right."
A Long: "..." Please, your smile to strangers looks more like the smile of someone who has just killed someone, it's really creepy.
I got home in the evening.
Luo Beishi couldn't help but sigh, "They were so busy with their weddings! Look at us, we barely had anyone to toast us back then."
Huo Cixiao nodded. "Both girls drank beverages, don't worry. Honey, you should worry about yourself."
Luo Beishi covered his mouth with one hand. "Stop saying such things, let's rest and recuperate for a while, okay?"
"I didn't want to either, honey, you're just like honey. I feel like I can't control myself in front of you." Huo Cixiao pitifully, leaving Luo Beishi helplessly patting his head, knowing in his heart that this was a gift from the system!
Named: "Eternal Love!"
To hell with immortality! His back is about to break!!
The next day
The two went to their uncle's house to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.
This wasn't the first time Luo Beishi had met his uncle and the others; his white hair was still quite striking.
His uncles' children kept surrounding him, but Luo Beishi didn't find it boring at all. "So, what exactly do you guys want?"
"Sister-in-law!! We want you to play with us!"
"Huh? What are we playing?"
Luo Beishi looked down at his two younger cousins, who were only about ten years old and still wearing overalls like twins. He could never tell them apart. "Wait, why do you always wear the same clothes? I can't tell them apart."
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, I'm the eldest, I have a small black mole under my eye."
Huo Cixiao interrupted, "It's alright, wife, just remember me."
My cousins exclaimed in unison, "Cousin!! You've gone too far!!"
Huo Cixiao's lips curled into a smile as he looked down at them with disdain, "This is my wife, she only plays with me!"
"Waaah, sister-in-law, your husband is so mean..."
Luo Beishi smiled helplessly, "Alright, let's play together. Add my husband. Tell me, what do you want to play?"
"Let's play a boat game! The first one to reach the island and plant the flag wins! Cousin, come aboard with us, we have games in our game room!"
Luo Beishi and Huo Cixiao exchanged a smile.
Afterwards, shouts occasionally echoed from the game room, "Cousin! You've gone too far! You guys haven't played this before!"
Luo Beishi patted their heads. "Yeah, we've really never played this before."
My two cousins are my second uncle's sons. It wasn't the first time I'd met them, but the first time was at their wedding, and I wasn't allowed to be naughty.
Now I finally meet my sister-in-law, who has such rare white hair.
After playing the game, he took a magnifying glass and examined his hair, only to be grabbed by the arm by Huo Cixiao. "Don't you guys have your own wives? You're always clinging to other people's wives!"
Cousin: "Cousin, you're so stingy!"
Huo Cixiao: "Yes, yes, I am stingy. Alright, I'm taking my wife for a walk. Don't follow me, understand?"
Under Huo Cixiao's threatening gaze, the two younger cousins followed him downstairs, finally watching them leave with reluctance.
The other adults in the living room have been putting on a serious face for quite some time now!
Only after Huo Cixiao left did the group breathe a sigh of relief. Uncle Pei Xin said, "Has our nephew changed in some way? Has he become more adorable?"
Pei Qian grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds. "People with wives are just different."
Second Uncle Pei Zhen rolled his eyes at him. "So when are you going to find a wife?"
"Thanks, but I'm a staunch bachelor. Anyway, I'll leave all my money to my nephews and nieces, isn't that great?" Pei Qian said casually, crossing her legs.
"Um... did we go into the wrong venue?" Luo Beishi realized he didn't have his phone, so he turned back. Hearing his uncles' expressions as they let their guard down, he almost burst out laughing.
Huo Cixiao looked speechless. "Alright, stop pretending. Aren't you tired? I knew it long ago."
Pei Qian paused, her hand still cracking sunflower seeds, as did her other two uncles. Their authority as uncles, maintained for over a decade, crumbled at this moment!
The three who had been exposed were somewhat at a loss, while the aunts who had tried to ease the tension at home all returned to their parents' homes.
"Heh, what are you pretending for? Who's pretending?" Pei Qian forced herself to continue the act.
When Huo Cixiao took Luo Beishi's hand, who had already retrieved her phone, he sighed, "I told you, I already knew." After reiterating this, the two left.
The three people inside looked at each other and finally couldn't help but laugh.
Luo Beishi arrived at the glass greenhouse, she handed her phone to Huo Cixiao, saying, "Take a picture, honey."
Huo Cixiao took the phone, leaned down and kissed his soft lips, then pressed the shutter.
Congratulations on the completion!
