Martial arts have become extinct worldwide, yet I am forced to have a large family.

Let's stop here for today.

On the other end of the phone, Jiang Mengyun's voice sounded weary; the call was about to end.

Xu Huanhuan, who was lying on Yang Xian, had already finished all her chores.

Bye-bye! See you tomorrow!

Yang Xian tried her best to maintain a smile, making her voice sound as relaxed and cheerful as usual.

The screen went dark the moment the video call ended.

"call--"

Yang Xian put down his phone, let out a heavy sigh, and collapsed onto the bed.

Finally... finally it's over!

Cold sweat had soaked through his back, clinging stickily to his skin, making him feel awful.

Luckily, I wasn't exposed, otherwise I probably would have really been done for here today!

Those short hour and a half just now were more exhausting than any battle I've ever fought before!

On one hand, you need to concentrate fully on talking to Jiang Mengyun, and at all times manage your tone and expression so as not to reveal the slightest flaw.

Meanwhile, on the other hand, he was enjoying a "full-body massage" from the little devil Xu Huanhuan!

That feeling was a bittersweet experience, with the mind and body undergoing two extreme tests!

After resting for a while, Yang Xian's tense nerves finally relaxed.

Immediately, a long-suppressed anger surged into his heart.

He raised his head and looked once again at the twin-tailed girl who was lying on his chest.

"Xu Huanhuan!"

"You were so reckless! Do you know I almost got exposed!"

Upon hearing this, the girl in his arms instinctively shrank back and pulled the thin blanket next to her over herself, wrapping herself up tightly.

"Yang Xian..."

Are you angry with someone?

The girl's voice was small and timid.

Those bright, expressive eyes were glistening with tears, making them look incredibly pitiful.

"I……"

Yang Xian felt a lump in his throat, unable to swallow it.

His anger, which had just begun to build up, was instantly extinguished by this appearance.

This girl, she's doing it again!

Yang Xian quickly realized what was going on and forced a stern face: "Don't give me that! Don't think playing the victim will work!"

Xu Huanhuan blinked her big eyes twice, glistening tears clinging to her long eyelashes, her voice weakening further: "Then... are you going to hit me?"

Looking at her pitiful expression, Yang Xian was both angry and amused.

What infuriates him is that this girl is incredibly audacious; she almost got him killed.

Ironically, with her superb acting skills, it would be a waste not to win her a Best Actress award.

Yang Xian remained silent for a few seconds.

Even though he knew perfectly well that the other person was 99% faking it, he still couldn't help but... soften his heart.

Finally, he sighed heavily and uttered two words with a helpless tone.

"Won't."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Huanhuan's face brightened instantly, and a smug smile appeared on her lips.

really!

My judgment was correct!

Yang Xian is a typical guy who responds better to gentle persuasion than force!

I went head-to-head with him from the start, no wonder I couldn't win him over!

"I knew you were the best!"

Xu Huanhuan suddenly crawled out from under the covers, happily hugged Yang Xian's neck, and rubbed her little head against his chest.

"You'll take responsibility for him, right?" she asked, tilting her head up with anticipation.

Feeling the soft body of the girl in his arms, Yang Xian reached out and hugged her back, gently patting her smooth back.

"Um."

He responded in a low voice.

"But I still need to spend some time sorting out the relationship between you two."

The thought of this made Yang Xian's head start to ache again.

It's only been a short time since school started!

Now I have three more emotional debts.

Xia Ming is alright, after all, he is a former classmate of Nanhai No. 1 Middle School, and they know each other well.

But Nan Shunian and the Xu Huanhuan in front of her...

That would be a huge problem!

"I believe in you~" Xu Huanhuan's voice was very sweet.

She had already noticed Yang Xian's troubles and comforted him:

"Even if we really can't handle it, we can always hide back at the Xu family's place."

"The Jiang family is nothing but a declining clan; they're no match for my Xu family!"

This isn't just bragging.

Furthermore, Xu Huanhuan really didn't think Jiang Mengyun would dare to make a big fuss about it.

Just considering Yang Xian's unique value, which is enough to change the entire landscape of the martial arts world... no matter how angry Jiang Mengyun is, she has to keep it to herself!

But Yang Xian was ultimately responsible, and he didn't want things to escalate to the point where a woman had to step in to resolve them.

I don't want any girl to suffer any injustice.

"Alright! Stop looking so gloomy!"

Xu Huanhuan stretched out her fair little hand and gently wiped the fine sweat from Yang Xian's forehead.

"To avoid being discovered by Jiang Mengyun, I didn't make a sound at all!"

"Look how thoughtful they are!"

She even puffed out her little chest proudly, giving me a look that said, "Come on, praise me!"

After saying that, Xu Huanhuan stretched comfortably, revealing her graceful curves.

Her little hand reached for the underwear that had been tossed aside, as if she was about to put it on.

Just then, the girl's slender wrist was firmly grasped by a large hand.

Xu Huanhuan paused for a moment, then turned to look at Yang Xian.

A playful smile appeared on Yang Xian's face.

"Since you're so thoughtful... let's stick to each other a little longer!"

Xu Huanhuan's smile froze: "Yang Xian, but... but it only just ended..."

"What? Scared?"

Yang Xian propped himself up with his other hand and gently stroked the girl's face. "From the first time we met, you've caused me a lot of trouble. I've been wanting to teach you a lesson for a while now!"

"Who, who's scared!" Xu Huanhuan pulled her hand back, her eyes darting around. "How about... how about we wait until tonight? The sun's almost setting..."

She also wanted to use delaying tactics.

However, Yang Xian didn't give her that chance at all.

He picked the girl up in one swift motion and held her firmly in his lap.

"Perfect timing! I learned a technique called 'Never-Setting Sun' online the other day. I heard it's very effective against disobedient brats like you. Today, I'll test its power on you!"

Xu Huanhuan panicked completely.

The sun never sets?

What is that?

That doesn't sound like anything legitimate!

Seeing her adorable, flustered appearance, Yang Xian was in a great mood and immediately moved closer to her.

"Besides..." Yang Xian tightened his grip, speaking in a voice only the two of them could hear.

"You think you can escape tonight?"
