Xingtie: My silly online friend is actually a raccoon!

The family of three watched TV in the living room for a while, and time flowed by slowly in a warm atmosphere.

Before long, Lu Ze noticed that his daughter had started to droop her head little by little, like a chick pecking at rice, and her eyelids were gradually drooping.

"Yaoyao, are you sleepy?" Lu Ze asked softly.

"Um!"

The little girl mumbled a response, and upon hearing her father speak, she snuggled into his arms, clutching his clothes tightly with her little hands.

Lu Ze smiled and held her tightly in his arms: "Let's wash up first and then go to sleep, okay?"

The little girl mumbled an "um," which was taken as an agreement.

Lu Ze then picked her up and carried her to the washroom.

A short while later, they brought out the little girl who had finished washing up and changed into her pajamas.

Her little head rested on Lu Ze's shoulder, her hair was already dry, and she was in a half-asleep state.

Lu Ze was about to carry her back to his room, but after taking only two steps, Fu Xuan's voice came from the side.

"Let Yaoyao sleep with me tonight. I want to get closer to her and strengthen our relationship."

Lu Ze turned to look at her, his expression resentful, his eyes clearly saying: What about me?

Fu Xuan blushed slightly under his gaze, stepped forward, and pinched his waist lightly.

She scolded him in a low voice, "Bear with it."

After saying that, she took the sleeping little girl from his arms, turned around and walked towards her room, leaving Lu Ze with only her back view.

Lu Ze stood there helplessly, watching Fu Xuan disappear behind the door. He sighed and finally resigned himself to following him inside.

In the room, Fu Xuan gently placed the little girl on the bed, afraid of waking the person in his arms.

After confirming that Lu Yao was sound asleep, she straightened up and turned to get clothes from the closet to prepare to take a shower.

Seeing this, Lu Ze gently hugged her from behind and whispered in her ear.

"Shall we shower together?"

Fu Xuan's body stiffened slightly, then he turned his head and lowered his voice.

"Be serious, the child is still here."

She reached out and pinched the back of his hand that was wrapped around her waist.

Lu Ze couldn't persuade her otherwise, so he had no choice but to let go and obediently take his own clothes, and the two of them washed them separately.

When he returned to his room after taking a shower, Fu Xuan was already in bed.

She turned to the side, looking at the little girl beside her with a loving expression.

Lu Yao was a restless sleeper. One of her little hands had somehow grabbed Fu Xuan's fingers, and her mouth was opening and closing as if she were eating something delicious in her dream.

Lu Ze quietly lay down on the other side of the bed, making extremely soft movements so as not to wake his sleeping daughter.

He turned his head and his eyes met Fu Xuan's.

The soft light fell on her face, and her eyes still held a trace of lingering tenderness.

Fu Xuan felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze, lowered his eyes, and said softly.

"Go to sleep."

Lu Ze didn't dwell on it, closed his eyes, and prepared to drift off to sleep.

The room fell silent, with only the little girl's long, even breaths remaining.

After a while, Fu Xuan's voice suddenly came, very softly, as if afraid of waking the little girl beside him.

"Aze, I might not be able to have a baby for you so soon."

Lu Ze opened his eyes and turned his head to look at Fu Xuan.

After a moment of silence, he reached out and gently stroked his daughter's cheek.

"Fool, why are you saying all this?"

Fu Xuan didn't respond, but Lu Ze understood what she meant.

He had always known that Fu Xuan dreamed of becoming the General of Luofu, and he had always supported her.

However, given the political structure of the Immortal Boat Alliance, if Fu Xuan wants to rise in rank, he cannot have children too early.

As for when it will be considered not too early, given Fu Xuan's age, it will take at least two or three hundred years.

"Go to sleep, don't think too much. I'll do whatever you say," Lu Ze said.

Fu Xuan didn't speak again. Feeling the warmth from her lover's fingertips, she gently closed her eyes and fell asleep.
