Xiao Yao closed his eyes, turned his face to the side, and took a deep breath secretly when he touched Bai Ju’s shoulder.
There was still a bit of the smell of preserved egg and lean meat porridge on Bai Ju. Xiao Yao, who had sensitive senses, closed his eyes and teased him: “Why did you think of eating porridge today? I can smell it.”
Bai Ju was stunned, and suddenly remembered the pot of porridge he had hung in the kitchen at the talk of eating and felt like this was a good opportunity to take credit: “I tried cooking it myself, and I wanted to wait for you to go back and drink it together.”
Xiao Yao: “…”
He didn’t expect that a casual sentence would lead to such a sweet moment.
However, Old Dog Bai was still sparing no effort to take credit: “The recipes for other things I found online were too difficult. And it was easier to make porridge… What I cook would definitely not be as delicious as what you cook, but it’s not too unpalatable. It’s okay to drink some porridge to nourish your stomach. I’ll learn more when I get used to it. It’s too tiring for you to cook for me when you’re busy with so many things.”
Xiao Yao felt that Bai Ju was too good at making porridge. He rambled on a few words without beginning or end and cooked all his heart’s emotions and heartbeats into a pot of porridge. It was warm, sweet, and steamy enough to make people’s eyes squirt.
Fortunately, Old Dog Bai had no other distracting thoughts.
Xiao Yao grabbed the hem of Bai Ju’s clothes, relaxed himself and leaned on his shoulder, and whispered: “Well… let’s go back and have porridge together. But I’ll be the one to cook from now on, I’m a tricky person.”
Shit, I ate on the mountain when I was a kid. People who have been born with snakes can be so cunning.
I just want to cook for this old dog.
Bai Ju didn’t know what Xiao Yao was thinking. Hearing what he said, he just smiled with a good temper and a good mood: “Yeah, that’s fine. If I learn to cook, I might break a few of your kitchen utensils.”
As long as the little guardian didn’t lose his temper.
….
Qu Lang drove through the streets during rush hour. He was so frustrated by the traffic jam that it took him more than forty minutes to get to the mall.
If it weren’t for the person involved this time being Xiao Yao, he wouldn’t have worried about delaying this long to come back to the scene.
Qu Lang found the location of the two of them according to Xiao Yao’s reply to him. When he was about to walk over, he was shocked by the scene not far away.
His little boy, who had his own air-conditioning, was relaxing and dozing off on someone’s shoulder; while the person he was leaning against, who was all white and reflective, was holding Xiao Yao, and his ivory-white palms were covering Xiao Yao’s ears, the five fingers intertwined among the black hair, looking inexplicably gentle and considerate.
They seemed to be cut off from the hustle and bustle of the entire world, and there was peace everywhere.
Qu Lang’s smile froze.
Mom, this is how it is…can his family’s little one bear it?
Ordinary people who were this close to Xiao Yao should have been beaten long ago.
This demon king was hugging Xiao Yao. Was it because he was a fluffy person?!
Qu Lang didn’t think too much. His eyes just stayed on Bai Ju for a second when he was caught by Bai Ju.
Bai Ju’s line of sight crossed the small half of the square and accurately caught Qu Lang’s line of sight. After a slight confirmation, he nodded to him without opening a word, and his deep voice went straight into Qu Lang’s mind: “Team Leader Qu Lang? Come here.”
Qu Lang’s heart suddenly felt that this demon king’s abilities were extraordinary.
Nodding slightly in agreement, he took steps towards the two of them.
After Bai Ju finished talking to Qu Lang, he released his hand from Xiao Yao’s ear, gently brushed the broken hair at the end of his eyes and called him in a low voice: “Yao Yao… Yao Yao, wake up, Qu Lang is here.”
When Xiao Yao heard Bai Ju’s voice, he subconsciously avoided it and buried his face in Bai Ju’s neck; and it took him a while to wake up.
Sitting up in a daze, Xiao Yao looked at his childhood friend, who had a stiff expression four or five meters away. He then rubbed his cheeks that were indented by sleep and raised his hand to check the time.
He actually fell asleep…and slept for a full half hour.
Seeing that Xiao Yao was awake, Qu Lang walked up to him, stretched out his hand, and said with a half-smile, “Xiao Ju, are you living a comfortable life?” He was so seduced that he lost all vigilance. If he was sucked dry by this male goblin, let’s see what he does.
Xiao Yao noticed Qu Lang’s vague hostility towards Bai Ju, and shook hands with him perfunctorily without saying anything: “Have you contacted the Secret Service General Administration?”
Qu Lang calmed down, nodded to Bai Ju, and answered and said: “The General Administration knows. According to the statement you provided, the three little girls are suspected of being hypnotized. The General Administration has sent people to keep an eye on them. There should be no danger to their lives. The cracks on the billboard are also man-made, you said. There is no evil spirit on the face, and it doesn’t look like a ghost is causing trouble. This may need to be verified again, at least to find the person who directly took action… Don’t worry about this, my profile is still passable.”
After a pause, Qu Lang looked away. Then looking at Bai Ju’s face, his tone became slightly more serious: “The biggest problem now is Bai Wang.”
“The General Administration can almost deduce how this matter was solved. Bai Wang has merit, this is undeniable; but for Bai Wang, the general administration’s suggestion is to re-evaluate.”
Xiao Yao listened and took his glasses back from Bai Ju’s collar. Seeing that Qu Lang had no intention of continuing, he knew that the general administration’s words had been conveyed: “Okay, the business is over. Tell me, how are you going to resolve this matter?”
Qu Lang looked at his childhood friend, who seemed to be very calm, and then at Bai Ju, who looked at the excitement and smiled like it was not a big deal: “Well, I think it’s easy. Bai Wang was so eager to save people that he accidentally overdrew his mana. Now he can’t even maintain his human form. When I came to see you, Bai Wang had already fainted.”
Xiao Yao: “…”
It was better to give him a beating.
