I haven't been back for several days. Shi Wen doing their inspections and management, and they even went to check on the bees.

He walked around the meadow for a long time, and when he got home, he also tidied up the vegetables in the backyard.

His ranch has just added so many members, he needs to find time to send out the first month's membership gift boxes.

The ranch's output is currently low, so some of the crops will definitely be used as gifts. We can pick out the best-looking parts of the vegetables now.

Yan Kexing over to help. Shi Wen didn't feel tired, just that the tasks were very trivial. Before she knew it, it was dark.

Even after the moon has risen, Shi Wen still has to go and check on the livestock and poultry that have already been put into their pens.

Yan Kexing stopped him. "Just take a look, it's good enough, we can finish it tomorrow. You need to get some rest today."

Shi Wen, "I'm not too tired."

"You can't be too tired; you need to rest." Yan Kexing looked into his eyes. "Go take a look around the livestock shed and poultry house, then come back to the kitchen and help me out."

Shi Wen said, "That works too."

His family's smart management system is still operational, and he can see the status of livestock and poultry through the app.

The livestock and poultry are doing well today, with no unusual incidents reported.

When he entered the livestock shed and poultry house, the robots had already put the feed into the troughs, the water had been changed, the salt bricks had been replenished, and two other robots were cleaning the floor.

The entire ranch looked well-organized, and there was nothing particularly noteworthy about it.

Shi Wen played with the little ones for a while, then went back to the kitchen to help.

In fact, Yan Kexing didn't need his help. Yan Kexing prepared all the side dishes and was just waiting to cook them.

Yan Kexing called him over simply so he could rest.

Shi Wen rolled up her sleeves and asked, "Is there really nothing I can do?"

Yan Kexing pointed and said, "Sit there and keep me company."

Shi Wen said, "That works too."

Shi Wen sat at the dining table, watching Yan Kexing cook, and took out his phone to check it.

He'd been busy these past few days, and his phone was overflowing with unread messages. He filtered through them, replying briefly to the ones that needed a response, and ignoring the rest. There were just too many messages for him to keep up with.

When he opened his phone, he specifically asked Xiao Wukati, the owner of the mutton soup shop.

Xiao Wukati that the staff had already taken the Przewalski's horses away, and the remaining wild animals had only caused very limited damage to their wolfberry orchards; it seemed that the wild horses were the main cause of the damage.

Shi Wen about the young men I work with.

The young men said they killed quite a few wild goats when they went out hunting, and that there shouldn't be so many wild goats bothering the people in the future.

Shi Wen breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the news. Since the wild horse and wild goat had been taken away, he could be considered to have barely fulfilled his promise.

Hopefully, wild goats and other wild animals will no longer roam out and wreak havoc on human territory.

Shi Wen was replying to messages while looking at Yan Kexing.

Although he was quite tired today, seeing Yan Kexing cooking at the stove made him feel particularly at ease, as if all of life had truly come down to earth.

Shi Wen leaned on the table, looking at Yan Kexing with his eyes.

Yan Kexing felt a surge of warmth in his heart as he looked into those bright eyes. As he carried the dishes past, he playfully pinched the man's cheek and asked, "What are you looking at?"

Shi Wen, "I'm looking at you, and I'm looking at my life too."

Yan Kexing: "Are you satisfied?"

Shi Wen, "I'm very satisfied. My life now is exactly what I've always dreamed of."

Shi Wen explained, "Before I met you, my parents were divorced, and every year during the Lunar New Year I had nowhere to go. I would stay in my rented room, constantly wondering what the point of my existence was, and what the point of living that kind of life was."

Yan Kexing: "And now?"

Shi Wen, "I feel happy and content every day I live now. Perhaps that's why life continues?"

Yan Kexing: "Me too. Since being with you, my heart has always been filled with a simple yet fulfilling happiness."

Shi Wen laughed and said, "You speak so poetically."

The two finished their meal; it was still early.

Yan Kexing urged Shi Wen to go take a shower and get some rest early today.

Shi Wen myself yawning as I go to take a shower. As I shower, I always feel like something is different today, but when I look in the mirror, I can't find anything different.

Late at night, Shi Wen lay beside Yan Kexing, her rosy lips slightly parted, her legs draped over Yan Kexing, fast asleep.

In the darkness, Yan Kexing suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Shi Wen.

A sliver of dim starlight streamed in through the window, illuminating Shi Wen. With each breath, something white seemed to tremble in his black hair.

Yan Kexing observed for a while before realizing that it was Shi Wen's ear.

His ears had somehow grown longer, turning into fluffy, pointed animal ears.

Yan Kexing gently pinched his ear.

His ear automatically shifted to the side and twitched, gently patting Yan Kexing's finger as if warning Yan Kexing not to do anything wrong.

Yan Kexing then withdrew his hand and touched his forehead.

His forehead was a little hot, and his breath was also warm, but his eyes and brows were very peaceful, and you could not tell that he was uncomfortable at all.

Yan Kexing kept his eyes open and watched over him for half the night, but did not wake him.

Shi Wen was unaware of the series of changes that were happening to him.

He's been so tired these past few days that he sleeps very soundly at night.

When he got up according to his biological clock in the morning, he leaned against the headboard, looking at the familiar bedroom, and for a moment felt a little disoriented.

After a moment, he realized that he was home today.

He threw back the covers and tried to get out of bed, slipping on the slippers neatly placed beside the bed.
