Competing

It took Bai Di a lot of effort to coax Huanhuan to stop being angry and obediently finish her food.

At night, Shuang Yun wanted to sleep with Huanhuan.

In the few days they were apart, he missed Huanhuan almost every day. He traveled day and night so that he could see Huanhuan as soon as possible.

Now that he had finally reunited with Huanhuan, he had to be intimate with her tonight.

Unexpectedly, Huanhuan hugged Bai Di’s arm and said loudly, “I want to sleep with Bai Di tonight!”

Shuang Yun was very hurt. “You haven’t slept with me in a long time. I just came back today, but you’re unwilling to sleep with me. You’re biased!”

Huanhuan felt a little guilty at Shuang Yun’s accusation, but she insisted, “I’ll sleep with Bai Di for the next few days. I’ll sleep with you after this.”

Shuang Yun’s eyes were filled with resentment, like a resentful woman looking at her playboy husband.

Huanhuan was embarrassed by his gaze. “I’m sorry.”

“I don’t want to hear the words ‘sorry’.”

The sad Shuang Yun looked like a big abandoned dog. He was indescribably pitiful.

In the past, Huanhuan’s heart would have softened.

But today was different. She had to keep an eye on Bai Di. She couldn’t let him escape.

Hence, she could only harden her heart and look away, pretending not to see Shuang Yun’s pitiful expression.

When Bai Di carried Huanhuan upstairs, Shuang Yun was still in a state of sadness.

Xue Ling patted his shoulder. “Don’t be sad. There’s still a long way to go. You’ll have many opportunities in the future.”

“Huanhuan is biased toward Bai Di. She doesn’t even love me anymore.” Shuang Yun was sad about this.

“She didn’t insist on sleeping with Bai Di because she’s biased.”

“Then what’s the reason?”

Sang Ye, who had been silent all this while, said, “Huanhuan wants to keep an eye on Bai Di.”

He didn’t like to talk. He was always silent, so his presence at home was extremely low, but he was meticulous. It was easy for him to see details that others couldn’t notice.

Shuang Yun was puzzled. “Why does she want to keep an eye on Bai Di?”

Xue Ling smiled faintly. “Bai Di wants to go to Sun City alone. Huanhuan won’t let him go. The two of them are competing.”

“That’s rare. Huanhuan usually listens to whatever Bai Di says. Why is she suddenly going against him today?”

“Who knows?” Xue Ling lazily touched Eggy on his shoulder. “It’s getting late. I’ll go rest first. You guys should too.”

…

For two days in a row, Huanhuan followed Bai Di closely, not giving him a chance to leave her sight.

Bai Di read her thoughts, but he didn’t point them out. He let her stick to him all day.

He enjoyed the little female sticking to his side.

If not for the fact that he was still thinking about his two sons, he would have been happy to stay with Huanhuan.

Shuang Yun was so jealous when he saw Huanhuan and Bai Di so close together.

He complained to his precious daughter in private.

“I think I’ll be abandoned soon. You’ll have to help your father then.”

Shuang Yin asked, “Help you fight for the family assets?”

“What family assets? Of course, I’m asking you to help your father persuade your mother to stay. Don’t let her abandon me.”

“…Father, where’s your ambition as a beast king?!”

Shuang Yun shook his chest muscles. “Do you think I’d still have you, Dos, Tres, and Little Monster otherwise?!”

Shuang Yin was speechless.

The reason why her father was the first to have children with her mother was that he was the most useless!

After eating and drinking her fill tonight, Huanhuan pestered Bai Di to sleep as usual.

She changed and climbed into Bai Di’s arms.

Three days had passed.

If Bai Di didn’t change his mind tomorrow, Huanhuan would have to compromise and let him go to Sun City alone to pick up the children.

As much as she wanted to pick up the children with Bai Di, he wouldn’t agree. If she continued to stall, it would only delay the children’s return.

She wanted to see the children quickly and hoped that the family could reunite soon.

She could only compromise.

Bai Di pressed the back of her neck. “Go to sleep,” he whispered.

Sleep gradually overwhelmed her. She slowly closed her eyes. In her daze, she suddenly felt a tap on the back of her neck.

It didn’t hurt very much, but she immediately fainted.

A second before she fainted, she heard Bai Di speak in her ear.

“Sorry.”

Huanhuan thought to herself, ‘Sorry, my *ss!

‘How dare you attack your wife, you bastard?! When I wake up, I’ll teach you a lesson!’

Although she was roaring in her heart, her body had involuntarily fallen unconscious.

Bai Di stood up and carefully tucked her in.

“Stay at home and wait for me to come back.”

Huanhuan lay motionless on the bed without any response.

Bai Di kissed her on the lips one last time, then straightened and strode out of the bedroom.

As soon as he went out, he saw Xue Ling standing at the top of the stairs.

Xue Ling crossed his arms and looked at him lazily. “Why aren’t you sleeping in the middle of the night? Are you running away?”

Bai Di’s expression didn’t change. “I’m going to Sun City to pick up the children.”

“Does Huanhuan know?”

“She knows.” She just didn’t agree.

Xue Ling glanced at the closed door behind him and asked, “I don’t understand. Why won’t you bring her along? Although you might encounter danger on the way, Yun Hui and Sang Ye can accompany you. With all your strength combined, it won’t be easy for others to bully Huanhuan.”

Bai Di said nothing.

Xue Ling: “What are you afraid of?”

After a long silence, Bai Di said, “I’m afraid of losing her.”

“It’s just a trip. It’s not like she hasn’t been away before. Why are you so nervous?”

“Zhi and Yan have also arrived on the beast continent.”

These words were baffling.

However, Xue Ling quickly reacted. “Did Zhi say something to you before? Is that why you’re nervous about Huanhuan’s safety?”

Bai Di said nothing.

Silence was a tacit agreement. Xue Ling put away his casualness and became serious. “Are Zhi and Yan going to harm Huanhuan? Or is it because of something else? Make yourself clear. We can analyze it together.”

But Bai Di said, “I can’t say.”

He had an agreement with Zhi and Yan that what he saw that day could not be leaked, or the consequences would be serious.

Xue Ling frowned. “Zhi is very good at reading people. You’d better not believe what he says.”

“I know. I know what to do.”

If it had been Shuang Yun who said this, Xue Ling might have had doubts, but it was Bai Di who said this. With his steady and thorough style of doing things, he definitely knew what he was doing since he said so.

Xue Ling sighed. “Then go and come back quickly. Send us a message through space if you need anything.”

“Yes, I’ll leave Huanhuan in your care. Don’t let her leave Rock City until I return.”

“I understand.”
