Even as a "normie," I'm completely oblivious to it.

Feeling Xiaomeng tremble with shyness, Yuzhe quickly helped her steady herself, while also scolding her husband in a slightly reproachful tone.

"Xiao Meng."

"I understand how you feel right now, I'm in a similar situation, but I have to endure it, you know? Besides what I just mentioned, there's another objective condition, you know?"

"Huh?"

"It's... that thing sold in supermarkets that looks like a chewing gum box... Do you want to cause some irreversible consequences without it?"

"!"

"Got it? It's that you don't have, so you have to endure whatever they say now. It's a matter of principle."

"Isn't this just a coincidence?"

"?"

"Yu Zhe, close your eyes for a moment... I'm going to get my clothes..."

You just said you wouldn't be shy anymore, but you're still the same!

Of course, as is customary, Yu Zhe closed his eyes only halfway.

It's not because I'm aroused, it's because I'm really curious about what Xiaomeng is going to do. You can't just conjure up that thing out of thin air, can you?!

However, Xiaomeng actually pulled off a "magic trick" next.

She continued to hold Yu Zhe with one arm, struggling to reach for the clothes she had just taken off behind her with her other arm. After rummaging around for a while, she pulled something out of her pocket...

It's you! The chewing gum box!!

"Xiao Meng?! You're still carrying this?!"

"Yes... my mom gave it to me yesterday before I left, saying to be careful, that it's an essential item... I never thought I'd actually need it... because she gave it to me right before I left, I suddenly realized I'd kept it in my pocket and forgotten to take it out..."

Auntie?! Do we really need to be so thorough?

Look at you, Uncle, you're not as clever as Aunt in this respect.

Yu Zhe didn't know whether to complain or thank them.

Regardless of the method, Yu Zhe now had no choice but to accept the safety measures handed to him by Xiao Meng.

This is a brand new, perfectly packaged box.

It really reminded Yu Zhe of the tragedy of last night... no, it should be called paradise.

Are you... sure?

"If I'm not sure, I won't take it out."

Xiaomeng spoke with absolute certainty this time.

She didn't care whether Yu Zhe would see something while she was staring at him like that; she seemed completely determined and unwavering.

It seems there's no room for further discussion.

To be honest, Yu Zhe is more excited than hesitant right now.

There's nothing to hesitate about.

Xiao Meng has already passed the test and gained recognition in her own heart.

Now, this is not only her request, but also Yu Zhe's own wish.

Although the time is a bit tight, if we start just a little...

Sigh, if only I could have a soft, cozy bed like Zixiao did, instead of this cold, hard wooden floor~

Just as Yu Zhe was about to release Xiao Meng and let her lie flat...

Outside the wooden house, the sound of multiple footsteps trudging through the snow could be heard.

Someone's coming!

At the same time, Yu Che's light and clear voice also rang out.

"Emergency rescue! Emergency rescue! It's extremely urgent! Open the door!!"

35. You can look forward to it first.

Actually, this was all arranged by Yu Zhe. Just ten minutes after he left with Xiao Meng, Lu Ling and Lu Yao informed Yu Zhe about it, and Yu Zhe was supposed to bring them over.

However, they arrived a little earlier than Yu Zhe had expected.

The moment he heard the sound, Yu Zhe reacted. He had to at least let go of Xiao Meng's embrace first, otherwise, if they saw him in this state, who knows what kind of trouble they might cause!

However, there was a movement that was even faster than Yu Zhe's actions.

That's the speed at which Yu Che kicked the door open!

She had barely finished shouting those words when she kicked the wooden door with her little foot. The door opened with a bang, and without the wooden door blocking the way, the wind and snow outside roared.

Couldn't you have been a little more patient and waited a few more seconds?! Huh?!

You did this on purpose, didn't you?!

"ah!"

Hearing the door being broken down, Xiaomeng had no idea what was going on. She had just been mentally preparing herself when this sudden change made her gasp and throw herself into Yuzhe's arms to hide.

Just a moment ago she was confidently saying she would be Yu Zhe's only support, but now she's become cute and cuddly again~

There was no time to let go and there was nothing that could be done... Yu Zhe had no choice but to hug her again, since it was quite cold outside with the wooden door open and the wind and snow blowing.

We're barely dressed!

After warming Xiaomeng up, Yu Zhe turned around sheepishly.

Even without turning around, Yu Zhe could guess what expressions they had right now.

What kind of expression could someone have if they opened the door and there was no movement or sound?

Sure enough, when Yu Zhe turned around, all he saw was astonishment.

Yu Che Zi Xiao, Yun Er Ye Jie, Xiao Ruo Ke Xiao Li Zhi, all six of them were there.

While both surprise and jealousy were present, their expressions also showed subtle differences.

Yu Che was surprised, Zi Xiao didn't mention it, it was pure jealousy, Yun'er was puzzled, Sister Ye was helpless, Xiao Ruo Ke was shy, and Xiao Li Zhi was... was silly?

She had seen the notebook Yu Zhe had given her before, and even she could have guessed this.

—Is Brother Yuzhe doing those indescribable magical things with Sister Xiaomeng that you read about in the manga?

You don't need to guess!

Since they remained silent, Yu Zhe had no choice but to break the silence first.

"Um...you guys came just in time? Haha...being stuck in the snowstorm is really embarrassing."

"..."

No one responded to this topic.

Because they know the truth—Lu Ling just said this is a test for Luo Xiaomeng, and her safety is guaranteed—so they asked the young ladies to...

Don't worry when you get here.

Besides, they're not really interested in bringing up this topic right now.

They had originally planned to act alongside Yu Zhe, but seeing this scene before them, they didn't want to say anything.

Zixiao was the first to reach her limit; she couldn't hold back any longer and finally asked the question.

"Brother...? You guys are... done?"

"No." Yu Zhe was still shaken from the fright, so his words weren't as subtle. "We were just about to start when you guys interrupted us. No...no! We didn't want to start!"

Even if I wanted to start, I couldn't say it in front of them! That would only provoke a fight!

But Xiaomeng was unhappy with these words.

Tears welled in her eyes as she pitifully looked up from Yu Zhe's chest: "Waaah, were you lying to me when you said you were going to start?"

"No! You should at least look at the situation!"

Yu Zhe is really having a tough time.

But then he realized that the entrance seemed to have become lively.

"Phew... What is this? It hasn't even started yet. I knew it. Xiao Zhe wouldn't be in a place like this... I guess I was overthinking it."

I'm sorry, Sister Ye, it was really just a little short.

"Hehe...hehehe...Yu Zhe-gege's twin-tailed clothes are now just boxer shorts...hehe, so beautiful..."

Yun'er?! How come I didn't know you had this attribute?!

Qin Ruoke was standing there, half-covering her eyes with her hands. No, the gap between your fingers is so big, what can you possibly cover up like that!

They were talking animatedly, and Yu Zhe, surprisingly, remained calm...

Well... thankfully it hadn't started yet, otherwise if they had seen it "in progress," who knows if two more would have pounced on it.

Look at this frozen wasteland, is this the kind of place to do this kind of thing?

Alright... even though Yu Zhe, who had already fallen for her true feelings, had no right to say that.

Taking advantage of the moment, Yu Zhe quickly grabbed the dress that Xiao Meng had just taken off from the corner of the cabin and put it back on her in no time.

Don't ask why I'm so skilled at dressing; it's just the result of being persecuted by Yu Che.

Wearing women's clothing was not my intention, and it's not my fault that I know a lot about it!

Then Yu Zhe picked up his own clothes and put them on, sighing helplessly, his face still flushed.

Sigh... So, if you're going to do something like this, you need to be absolutely certain that you won't be disturbed. It's better to avoid getting carried away like today.

Xiaomeng was also hurriedly buttoning the buttons on her dress.

She first glanced back cautiously.

Although everyone was looking in this direction while talking, no one came over to lecture her.

As expected... everyone has accepted the fact that they are all staying by Yu Zhe's side.

Otherwise, they would have come over and beaten up this little girl already!
