Ye Er opened up the bedroom to Xi Ze, including the right to use the bed. Although he felt a bit unaccustomed, he decided to give it a try, so it should be properly discussed. If there were any psychological barriers, he would try to overcome them. That was what he thought. But when it came to pretending to be asleep to fool a bedmate, and to judging whether someone else was asleep, Ye Er was far from as professional as the military female. So on his first attempt at feigning sleep, he was caught red-handed. After that, Xi Ze was unwilling to sleep in the same bed with him anymore. "I'm just a little bit unaccustomed. I'll be fine after a few more nights together." Ye Er insisted, trying hard to appear sincere, but the female zerg still ruthlessly rejected him. "I saw you taking sleeping pills. If you have a sleeping disorder, you can't just break your habits carelessly. Male Lord's sleep quality is very unstable. I can't let it worsen because of me....

Ye Er had originally thought he would feel very awkward. After all, the confession scene had startled both of them, and he had unprecedentedly lost control of his emotions, crying uncontrollably... but the outcome wasn't bad. In short, after calming down, his face had been frighteningly hot. The next day, he took a long time to mentally prepare himself before pushing open the door to leave his room. Familiar voices came from the kitchen. Ye Er poked his head inside and indeed saw the busy figure of the female zerg, with 015 helping him on the side. He silently sat down at the dining table. Xi Ze prepared a plate of breakfast. He hesitated for a moment but didn't give it to 015. Instead, he untied the knot at the back of his apron and took the plate out himself. "Ah? Oh, thank you." Ye Er somewhat reservedly accepted the plate handed to him by the female zerg with both hands and stuttered. "No need to thank me, Male Lord." Xi Ze said softly, his gaze shifting...

"It's not like that." Xi Ze looked directly into those eyes without the slightest avoidance, carrying a powerful courage born of tenderness. His voice was choked and trembled uncontrollably, yet he still insisted on speaking in a hoarse tone. "Do you remember? I once said that Male Lord is a dazzling star, shining brightly at every moment, not because you saved me, but because you are inherently like that." "Setting aside your identity as a male zerg, you are completely worthy of being protected, cherished, and respected. You should accept all love and gratitude naturally, without any burden." For the first time, he opened his own heart, as if retrieving that piece of flesh yearning for love that he had cast aside at the age of ten, and laying his beating heart bare before Ye Er. He was asking... no, begging the god to cast down a gentle gaze. "I'm asking you to love me... no, no, I'm asking you to allow me to love you. Just silently permi...

The soft golden sunlight poured in like water, filtering through the diamond-patterned curtains and casting faint, swaying shadows on the wall and sofa. It was a cozy silence. A breath brushed past him, carrying a familiar, light, sweet scent. Xi Ze's eyelashes fluttered slightly as he silently opened his eyes. What filled his vision was Ye Er's deeply sleeping face. The male zerg was sleeping deeply. Compared to his calm, gentle demeanor when awake, the slight redness at the corners of his eyes and his slightly pursed lips made him look as if he had suffered some grievance in his dreams. It easily made the bottom of Xi Ze's heart feel sour and soft, stirring a desire to pull him into an embrace and kiss him tenderly. Xi Ze traced the sleeping face of the male zerg with his gaze for a while before realizing that Ye Er was sleeping on the outer, extension side of the sofa. Ye Er hadn't changed out of yesterday's shirt. One side of the collar was askew from sleep, and...

Enix was not the kind of zerg to deliberately stall. He swiftly flipped his cards and signaled to Ye Er across the table with his eyes. "Congratulations." Ye Er glanced at his cards, flicked away the ones in his hand, and said leisurely, "Congratulations." He lost! The realization instantly thrilled the zergs surrounding them, and scornful remarks were already on their lips. But they soon came to a shocking realization, their expressions contorted in disbelief— Wait... that's not right! It should be...! A draw. Elaine felt an immense wave of relief. The ups and downs had almost made him collapse to the ground. The excitement of the night was overwhelming, nearly giving him a heart attack. Enix hadn't come to his senses yet. He blinked in confusion. "I... won? No, that's not right. We tied." "Yeah, very unfortunate. After all, Your Excellency didn’t get to spend his money." Ye Er remarked casually, the curve of his thin lips widening s...

 "Where did this guy come from?!" "I don't recognize him. He's not one of the big shots I know... So he's just a nobody relying on dumb luck to get this far??" Surprised whispers began to rise, and various gazes scrutinized that slender figure. The round of gambling continued. The number of players had gradually dwindled from more than twenty to a dozen, then to seven or eight... until only three or four remained. Several well-known, financially powerful big shots had all been ruthlessly eliminated. In stark contrast was this incredibly unfamiliar youth who, thought to have merely stumbled on dumb luck, had persisted until the final circle, leaving the onlookers dumbfounded. "What's going on? Even if he has dumb luck, he can't keep getting lucky, right...?" "Cheating? Can someone report this to the auction house for inspection?!" Meanwhile, Ye Er sat calmly at the gambling table, turning a deaf ear to the malicious comments an...
