Chapter 55: The Stinky Sack, Take Three Laps and Get Lost

Xuanyuan Hongyu bent down with a wry smile, extending his hand to gently lift out the little creature who was letting out soft little snores, a suspicious trace still lingering at the corner of her mouth. Her sleeping posture was truly atrocious.

He couldn't help but feel a drum beating in his heart: could his taste possibly be this abysmal? He had actually taken a fancy to such a little dummy of a pig! Looking at the little one happily tossing and turning on the couch, Xuanyuan Hongyu felt a sense of resignation. Whatever, without this little pig in his arms, he could not fall asleep peacefully. He accepted his fate, admitting defeat.

The door creaked softly as it opened, and Mother Wang poked her head in. One look, and it was a catastrophe!

Oh my goodness! Why was the Heavenly God in the young master's—no, the young mistress's bedchamber? Heavens, could it be? Impossible! Unthinkable! The little princess was only five years old! The Heavenly God was a deity, not a beast, definitely not one of those perverts!

Mother Wang continuously built up her psychological defenses while pulling the door shut and retreating quietly. Noticing the light on in the little mistress's room, she had assumed the child woke up at night to use the chamber pot and came to check, never expecting to witness such a sight.

A fierce mental battle raged within Mother Wang, neither side yielding. Thanks solely to her deep faith in the Heavenly God, she did not turn back, thereby sparing herself Xuanyuan Hongyu's punishment.

As the impeccably noble heir of the Xuanyuan family, Xuanyuan Hongyu had always possessed an incomprehensible, obsessive desire for absolute dominion over his personal belongings. Had Mother Wang been foolish enough to step foot into the little thing's room and catch them sleeping in each other's arms, the petty Xuanyuan Hongyu would definitely have employed methods Mother Wang would rather not know to teach her a thorough lesson, ensuring she understood that everything belonging to the little one was exclusively his.

With a flick of Xuanyuan Hongyu's hand, the entire room plunged into darkness. Nighttime was his true domain; ever since arriving at the Xuanxuan Continent, he had developed the habit of sleeping in the dark, a lifestyle change he gradually grew accustomed to, courtesy of this little one.

Cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo. The strange bird started calling again. Xuanyuan Hongyu glared in annoyance at the creature chirping merrily outside the window, just about to unleash his fury.

The restless little one in his arms tried to turn over again, but couldn't budge. So annoying! She was angry! The puffing little thing opened her eyes and saw the stinky cloth bag's golden mask mere inches from her nose!

"Ah!" Ling Wei shrieked, shrinking her body and covering her eyes. "Stinky cloth bag, why are you here?"

Xuanyuan Hongyu chuckled and patted her head. "You're dreaming. Do you like me so much that you have to seek me out even in your dreams?" While speaking, his hands kept moving, and soon, the brightly lit room turned pitch black once more.

The little one opened her eyes. Eh? It was still dark. So, was she really dreaming?

Xuanyuan Hongyu effortlessly slipped off the couch and mocked her, "Little thing, you miss me this much? I'm truly touched. Come, young master will give you a loving hug."

Convinced she was dreaming, the emboldened little one paid him no mind at all, snorting with utmost arrogance. "Stinky cloth bag, stop flattering yourself! I hate you the most! How dare you be so arrogant in my dream! I hate you the most!"

The youth deliberately lowered his voice. "Is that so? Little thing, don't assume you are the master of your own dream. Your master is me."

Ling Wei knew nothing of masters or rulers; she only knew that in her own dreams, she was the boss! Her tone became even loftier. "Hah! I call the shots in my dream! Now, stinky cloth bag, roll on the floor three times! Crawl back only after you've rolled enough! Go on! Otherwise, hehe, I'll have Uncle Zhao crack open your skull!"

Xuanyuan Hongyu was truly infuriated now. Did this idiot really loathe him to this extent?
