Only I can make them stronger

Fortunately, there were not many people on the way home from the photo studio, so his strange behavior did not attract much attention.

After putting things in simple order, Xia Ye carried Luo Qi to her room and placed her on the soft velvet bed.

Looking at Luo Qi's beautiful sleeping face with a satisfied smile on her face, Xia Ye felt a surge of pity in his heart.

This girl looks like she is really pent up.

The experiences of the past 20 years have made her accustomed to suppressing her nature and original intention, and it was not until today that she was able to release it a little.

"Mr. Xia Ye... this suit suits you very well..." Xia Ye murmured in his sleep. He smiled helplessly, gently touched Luo Qi's smooth black hair, and gently covered her with a blanket.

"Have a good rest...Luo Qi, I will always be with you from now on..."

After saying this, he tiptoed out of the room, closed the door, and walked towards the kitchen.

During the days when Luo Qi was away, he had been taking over as the chef for Qianshi Office.

Although his cooking skills are not as amazing as Luo Qi's, at least the food is delicious.

What's more, at worst, he still has Luo Qi's secret seasoning...

………………

"Mr. Xia Ye..." After about an hour, Luo Qi's long eyelashes moved suddenly, and then her big blue eyes opened hazily.

"What am I doing..." Perhaps because her mind was still blank, she couldn't even realize for a moment that she had returned to her room.

Shaking her head lightly, Luo Qi looked at the quilt on her body in a daze, and the embarrassing memories slowly began to emerge.

"It seemed like before, in that pink cubicle... Mr. Xia Ye counted down for ten seconds, and even dragged out the sound for a long time... Then I..."

"So it was Mr. Xia Ye who sent me back?" Looking at the quilt covering her body, Luo Qi felt a sweet feeling in her heart.

In Hill Continent, losing consciousness outdoors but being able to lie back safely in your own bed is a rare and extremely safe thing.

At this moment, she suddenly noticed that she seemed to be holding something in her hand——

This is a collection of souvenir photos I took just now.

"Looking silly..." Turning to the first page, the arguing of two people with puppy ears is captured clearly.

"Hehe, this one is cuter..."

"No! This page is scary no matter how many times I look at it! Tear it off..." Luo Qi turned the page with the eerie ghost shadow, and was about to tear it off. But after thinking for a while, she pursed her lips and said to herself:

"Forget it. At least Mr. Xia Ye in this page seems quite safe..."

"I remember this photo. I wanted to strike a suitable pose but didn't have time, so it was captured directly..."

"And this one. By the way, where did Mr. Xia Ye learn those romantic words? Did he say them to other girls as well..."

Luo Qi read page by page, her mind swaying and surging, the deep love and sweetness fluctuating along with the naughty girl's heart.

But at the moment of turning to the last page, Luo Qi was stunned, her slender jade fingers stopped in mid-air, and her beautiful eyes unconsciously revealed a trace of emotion and affection.

Her eyes stayed on the photo in the middle.

In the picture, Xia Ye and she are kissing passionately under the beautiful light and shadow, and there are some pink love bubbles in between, which looks quite appropriate.

"Wait! What are those things around here? Ahhhh! This is so embarrassing! Why did they even take pictures of something like this!" However, this deep affection did not last for just a few seconds, and Luo Qi realized that apart from this beautiful picture, there were some erotic scenes all around.

Under Xia Ye's "operation", she, with her body flushed, was enjoying herself in various obscene postures.

"So this is what I became like when I was doing that kind of thing with Mr. Xia Ye..."

"Will Mr. Xia Ye like me in this state..."

"Will you think I'm too lustful..."

"No! Luo Qi, how could you be such a slutty woman..."

"But that's Mr. Xia Ye, it's normal for me to become like this..."

"It must be like this, it's all Mr. Xia Ye's fault..."

"I can't watch it anymore. If I continue, I'll feel like..."

After finally retracting her gaze and calming down, Luo Qi finally closed the photo album with a snap, but only took out the photo of the deep kiss.

"Luo Qi will treasure this memory..." Taking a deep breath, Luo Qi slowly stood up, put the photo album into the drawer of the table, and looked at the photo again.

Then, she took out an empty exquisite photo frame from the cabinet, carefully put it in, placed it in the middle of the desk, sat down with her chest crossed, and lay on the table to admire it in fascination.

"As for this one...Luo Qi wants to see it every day..."

………………

[Current relationship, Luoqi looks forward to the future with you]

[The current favorability has reached 60 and cannot be further improved for the time being. You need to complete a specific bond task to unlock the subsequent favorability improvement.]

[The current favorability is 60, which meets the conditions for activating some effects of [Origin], but the effect has not been unlocked. Once unlocked, you will automatically gain permission to use the effect.]

Just when Xia Ye had finished cooking and was about to call someone, a series of messages suddenly came through the system.

In addition to the newly established relationship with Luo Qi, Luo Qi's favorability also became the first among the three wives to be increased to 60.

However, Xia Ye did not expect that favorability, a value that usually has no real presence, would have a limit, and it is also related to the activation effect of [Origin].

Unfortunately, Xia Ye still hasn't fully figured out the logic and methods for improving everyone's favorability, so he can only put it aside for the time being.

"Knock, knock, knock!" At this moment, the door of Qianshi Office was suddenly knocked.

"Who would come at this time?" Xia Ye looked at the time. It was almost eight o'clock in the evening. He moved to the front of the gate with some confusion and looked through the peephole cautiously.

However, the visitor suddenly made his expression more colorful.

It's Y?!

28. Hostility and Calmness

"Today's dinner doesn't seem to smell that good..." Leah muttered as she walked downstairs, but soon her brows furrowed slightly and she sniffed.

"It smells like a stranger, and it smells weird. It smells good, but I don't feel comfortable..."

Leah immediately moved closer to the wall, her body slightly tense, and tiptoed downstairs, carefully looking in the direction of the smell.

What caught his eye was a beautiful woman wearing heavy mercenary clothes sitting on the sofa.

She has black hair, brown eyes, bright eyes, white teeth, a refined temperament, and generous facial features, which makes people like her at first sight.

But the vague feeling of discomfort between her nose made Leah feel uncomfortable all over.

"Liya, what are you doing?" "Ahhh!" At this time, a pat on the shoulder accompanied by Shana's curious voice came, which scared Leah so much that she accidentally exclaimed.

The movement of the two people immediately attracted the attention of the two people in the living room, and two surprised glances quickly came over.

"Let me introduce you to my colleagues in the office. The cute girl is called Liya, she is in the second-level combat domain, and the taller woman is called..."

In order to avoid embarrassment, Xia Ye reacted immediately and started introducing everyone, but just as he was about to mention Shana, the other party took over the conversation.

"Shana, if I remember correctly, that should be her name. She used to be a mercenary of Bluebird. She was brave and good at fighting, but she could not break through the level and always remained at the second level. Therefore, she missed many difficult missions that Bluebird took over."

"However, I have a combat level far beyond the second level and wilderness survival skills. My best record is that I killed a fourth-level alien in the wilderness. This incident is quite famous among low-level mercenaries... Later, for unknown reasons, I completely left [Blue Bird]... I didn't expect to see you here."

The black-haired beauty casually reported Shana's past experience, which made the latter's expression suddenly filled with a solemn look.

"Shana! Don't be anxious, she means no harm!" Xia Ye noticed the change in Shana's expression and hurriedly stopped Shana who had already clenched her fists.

"Xia Ye is a very gentle person..." Seeing this, the black-haired beauty looked at Xia Ye with a smile.

"Her name is Y, she is also a mercenary. She came to us today to ask for assistance."

"We do not accept unofficial assistance commissions of the nature of door-to-door referrals, as this may bring a lot of unnecessary trouble." At this time, Luo Qi's voice also sounded from the stairs. Luo Qi, dressed in a decent maid outfit, walked out slowly, looking at Y subtly.

Of course she had an impression of this woman. When Xia Ye was dating her this afternoon, her eyes lingered on her for a long time.

However, this refusal was not because she was jealous, but as she said, if the other party was really a mercenary, then the so-called "assisting in the commissioned mission" would not go through official procedures, and would not be publicly recognized in the commission laws of major cities.

Such tasks, generally speaking, are accompanied by a lot of trouble.

"So, sorry, Miss Y, please go to other firms." Luo Qi usually appears to be good at housework, gentle and virtuous at home. This is the first time that Xia Ye has seen her in a relatively official social state when facing "outsiders".

"Luo Qi, it seems like she came here specially to see us. How about we listen to the content of her request?" Feeling that the air in the living room was a little tense, Xia Ye tried to smooth things over.

"Mr. Xia Ye..." Luo Qi pouted and looked at Xia Ye, but under the other party's expectant gaze, she finally softened, "Okay, Mr. Xia Ye has said so, let's find out... But if it is a mission that may be dangerous, we will definitely not accept it."

After saying that, she quickly walked to the sofa, lifted her skirt, and elegantly sat down quite close to Xia Ye, as if she was announcing something in this way.

Luo Qi now seemed to still have some of the childishness from the afternoon, and even her actions and intentions were a little too obvious.

Xia Ye sighed in his heart, but still turned his gaze back to Y.

The arrival of the other party brought back a glimmer of hope to his previously depressed mood. As an excellent strategy player, he smelled the scent of a hidden mission.

Although Y did not appear in his file, perhaps it was not completely impossible to include her in the harem?

This is a reasonable and bold conjecture, and Xia Ye does not want to easily give up the opportunity to confirm this conjecture.

Of course, part of the reason was that Y’s appearance was so much to his liking that he subconsciously wanted to have some contact with her.

"Thank you for your patience." Y and Xia Ye looked at each other, a smile flashed in their bright eyes, and they bowed politely and generously and said:

"Since there are a few more people, I'd better introduce myself again--"

"My name is Y, and I'm a member of the [Cart]."

"【Cart】? Is it the small and medium-sized mercenary organization that moves back and forth between cities?" Shana seemed to have some impression of the name of this organization. She leaned against the wall with her arms around her chest and asked with a frown.

"That's about it... Because there is no fixed base or city for the organization, and there are not many restrictions on the members, the mercenary organization is named "Wheelchair." Y chuckled and nodded.

"Just today, I received a bounty mission notification from the organization. There was one item in the bounty provided by the organization that really moved me, but after reading the mission content, I felt that I couldn't do it alone, so I wanted to find someone to assist me in the mission."

"Then why did you come all the way to our Qianshi Agency? Although the Xia city-state is not very big, there are many agencies with higher combat effectiveness than Qianshi, right?" Luo Qi interrupted the other party and asked with narrowed eyes.

"Because... Xia Ye left a very deep impression on me!" As soon as these words came out, Xia Ye, the person involved, immediately felt that the atmosphere in the room became even more tense than before.

An ambiguous hostile aura came from the three directions of Leah, Shana and Luoqi.

Now, they would not like such words from a beautiful woman with unknown origin and stunning appearance.

"Ahem...um, haha! Miss Y is such a joker!" It was the first time that Xia Ye felt that being noticed by a beautiful woman could be such a tormenting thing.

"I'm not kidding. Last time when I commissioned an agency, I was thinking about meeting Mr. Xia Ye again. That's why I came to each company to ask, specifically wanting to find Xia Ye to help me complete this task."

"But I didn't see you in the previous few places, which almost made me feel discouraged..."

"Well now... we meet again, don't we?"

Y tilted his head, seemingly unafraid of the three people's undisguised hostility. He narrowed his almond-shaped eyes, smiled, and spoke calmly and naturally.

29. A commission you can’t refuse

"Ms. Y, I don't know what exactly you want us to do, but no matter what, your request does not seem to meet any conditions of a legal entrustment..." Shana also walked forward with her towering breasts, staring down at the black-haired beauty, with a hint of cold scrutiny in her eyes.

"Xia Ye, if Qianshi Agency cannot take on this task as a whole, Xia Ye, can you assist me individually in a personal capacity?" Y didn't care about Shana's ruthless attitude towards him at all and turned to look at Xia Ye.

"Don't worry, I think our cooperation will be very pleasant and harmonious."

The slightly brown black grapes stared at Xia Ye, as if they could speak and made people's hearts sway.

"Ah? Me? The two of us alone?" Xia Ye never expected that this topic could be thrown back to him in such a sharp way.

If he was just sitting in front of the computer playing games, he would save the game immediately and then choose to accept Y's invitation without hesitation.

But now, the three wives with whom he had formed a deep bond were standing beside him. Three pairs of subtle eyes were focused on him at the same time as Y said. Oh no, including Y, there were four pairs in total...

Xia Ye felt that things were becoming difficult.

He knew that if he really insisted on making a decision, Luoqi, Leah and Shana would definitely not stop him by force.

But he didn't like choosing this method which would make all three of them unhappy.

Especially Luo Qi, who had just opened her heart to him and was in the stage of being extremely jealous. If he rashly agreed to go on a mission alone with a beautiful woman of unknown origin, he was afraid that his emotions, which had just stabilized, might go wrong again.

What's more, from his own perspective, he was also somewhat confused by what Miss Y said.

She had only met him once, and she didn't look like a special person like Leah and the others who were instinctively obsessed with his aura.

So what does she want? Because she looks good?

Xia Ye thought that he had not yet reached that earth-shattering level.
