Although housing prices are extremely high, it is not a problem at all under the system's 1:10000 exchange rate. Mu Huai can buy a house with the gold coins he earns from selling a Venus fish he catches.

"Mengya, it's time for dinner, go wash your hands!"

"Good~"

Nan Mengya responded in a baby voice.

After finishing her meal, she brought a small stool to the side of the sink, rolled up her sleeves and said, "I want to help Brother Mu Huai wash the dishes!"

"Mengya is so good!"

Mu Huai gave up half of his body to wash the dishes with her. Halfway through, Nan Mengya suddenly started flicking water droplets at his face with her wet hands, giggling as she did so: "Brother Mu Huai, wash quickly. I want to eat the pudding you made!"

"Great, so this is how you help me."

He dried his hands, pinched her baby fat twice, and patted her head: "Go watch TV, I'll wash the dishes and make you pudding."

"Mmmmmmm!"

"He's unmarried and childless, so he's already taking care of the child. Just think of it as experiencing the life of a stay-at-home dad in advance."

Mu Huai sighed and continued washing the dishes.

When he placed the prepared caramel pudding in front of Nan Mengya and was about to have dessert with her, the doorbell rang.

"Strange, Fubuki didn't send me a message either. Who could it be at this late hour?"

Frowning and muttering, Mu Huai drew the red-blade sword from the void and slowly walked towards the entrance. Through the cat's eye, he saw the trembling Tornado standing at the door with an impatient look on his face.

"Now that you've seen who I am, open the door quickly and don't peek outside like a fool."

Her proud childish voice immediately rang out.

Mu Huai reluctantly put away his weapon and then opened the door a crack: "Ms. Tornado, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"Let's talk after we get in!"

Relying on her petite figure, she squeezed in through the crack in the door and then floated towards the living room.

When Mu Huai closed the door and walked into the living room, he unexpectedly found Long Juan sitting upright on the sofa, completely devoid of the "I'm the best in the world" attitude he had when he first arrived.

"Wow, you must be the S-class hero, Terrifying Tornado Sister!"

"Yes, yes, little sister, you are really amazing. You guessed who I am right away."

"hey-hey."

"Mengya, take Pudding to your room and eat. I need to discuss some adult matters with Tornado."

"Okay! Sister Tornado, can you play with me for a while after you finish chatting? I want to hear your stories about fighting monsters!"

Tornado forced a smile and said, "Yes, we'll talk about it when we have time."

Although she didn't trust others very much, innocent children were an exception. After watching Nan Mengya run into the room with the pudding, she breathed a sigh of relief and returned to her usual arrogant look.

"I'm telling you, your daughter is already this old, and you still have the nerve to act young and hook up with my sister?"

Mu Huai rolled his eyes: "You are not the first person who recognized her as my daughter today. Do you want black tea or green tea?"

"Black tea with milk and three sugar cubes. She's not your daughter. What's her relationship with the girl living in your house? Is she her sister?"

"It's her. She became like this because of some small accidents."

Placing the fragrant black tea in front of Longjuan, Mu Huai sat across from her, folded his arms, and asked, "Miss Longjuan, what do you want to talk to me about?"

She casually threw a card onto the table.

"50W, stop bothering my sister."

Mu Huai almost laughed at this. He shoved the bank card back with amusement. "Ms. Tornado, you have to understand that it's not me who's pestering your sister. It's your sister who's been pestering me for some reason. I've already told her I have no interest in her B-class number one throne, but she's still watching me like a stalker."

"Then why did you take the initiative to look for her today?"

"You're also a complete stalker. I just have something to ask the Fubuki Group."

"Humph, for the sake of that little girl, I'll spare your life today."

Tornado picked up the black tea and took a sip elegantly, her eyebrows slightly raised in surprise, "I didn't realize you were so good at making black tea."

"Excellent."

Tornado drank her tea quietly and warned again before leaving: "You'd better not let me find out that you have any ill intentions towards Fubuki!"

"No, no, no, I'm really not interested in her. If I have to say, I prefer you, an S-class hero."

"LOLI control, if it weren't for that little girl..."

"I'm already dead, right? Thank you for coming, Ms. Tornado. I hope you don't come next time."

She gave Mu Huai a fierce look and then flew away from the corridor.

Chapter 65 Nan Mengya: Face it head-on, don’t be afraid.

Nan Mengya had a very sweet dream. In the dream, she returned to her childhood. Although her sister left without saying goodbye on the agreed day and her relationship with her parents was still icy cold, there was a figure who was always by her side and made her heart beat fast - Mu Huai.

He took himself away from his former cold home and brought him to a home that was smaller but warmer.

The two of them bathed, cooked, and slept together. Although they never left the house, this world brought Nan Mengya the warmth she had long forgotten. Every night, she could lie on Mu Huai's chest and fall asleep listening to his magnetic voice telling fairy tales.

She was like a seed that was unable to break through the hard soil during the drought, and she tried her best to get the attention and care she needed from him. The shadow of her sister Nan Xiangno's past, which was deeply engraved in her heart, also faded a little under this influence.

Outside the window, the unique noise of cars and people in the city center woke Nan Mengya from her sweet dream. She felt very uncomfortable being squeezed all over her body. She opened her eyes and found herself lying in Mu Huai's bed, wearing a small light pink nightgown that barely covered her body.

"Eh-"

The girl's screams startled Mu Huai awake. He sat up suddenly and saw that Nan Mengya's body had returned to its original size. He smiled with joy: "Mengya, you're finally back to normal!"

"Boom!"

A soft pillow hit his face. Nan Mengya grabbed the quilt to cover her body. The subtle sounds of tearing fabric rang out one after another. She was so ashamed that her whole body trembled, and tears flashed in her eyes.

"Calm down, I'm going to leave right now. Think carefully about what happened in the past few days!"

Mu Huai said this and ran out of his bedroom quickly.

The memories of the past few days also emerged in Nan Mengya's mind one by one. She hugged her knees with her hands, buried her blushing face in her thighs, and the corners of her mouth rose uncontrollably.

"So... I'm not dead..."

There is no doubt that Nan Mengya likes Mu Huai. Due to her childhood experiences, she lacks self-confidence and has a serious inferiority complex, so she has never dared to express her feelings to him. She can only imitate her sister's personality and joke and play with him.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for her to sacrifice herself to protect Mu Huai without knowing that he was immortal.

She remembered that in the past few days, because her mind had regressed to that of her childhood, she dared to say anything. Every time before going to bed, she would seriously ask Mu Huai whether he liked her or not.

He didn't treat her perfunctorily like he would a child, but answered her seriously: "I like you very much, but you are too young now. Try to eat and sleep well. When you grow up, you can be my girlfriend."

"ah!!!"

Nan Mengya screamed and buried her face in the pillow, kicking the mattress back and forth with her legs, then rolled around on the bed hugging the pillow, feeling both nervous and happy.

She didn't know how to take the initiative to ask Mu Huai if he still remembered the promise he made before going to bed. Girls are more sensitive and always hope that boys will speak first on this matter.

After thinking about it carefully for a while, Mu Huai had clearly confessed to her very seriously, but she was still thinking of waiting for him to bring up the matter on his own initiative. This was obviously unfair to him.

"You have to respond to him!"

Nan Mengya turned over and sat up, slapping her hot cheeks hard with her hands, trying to calm herself down.

She could feel her own violent heartbeat echoing in her ears. When she thought about confessing her feelings, her throat tightened and even her breathing became cautious.

"Dong dong!"

"Mengya, I left your clothes at the door, remember to take them in and change!"

"Okay, okay!"

Just hearing Mu Huai's voice, Nan Mengya's heart trembled, as if a stream of sweet honey was constantly coming out of her with her heartbeat.

She took a deep breath, suppressed her heart that was about to jump out of her throat, then tiptoed to the door, opened a crack, and quickly took the clothes into the bedroom.

"Don't be nervous, it's just a confession, what's the big deal? It's not like I don't know that he likes me. I can just go out and tell him 'I like you, please let me be your girlfriend', isn't that a simple thing?

The worst-case scenario is that he'll just push you over on the spot. Are you still dissatisfied?"

Nan Mengya was giving herself psychological counseling while getting dressed. Finally, she stood in front of the door and took deep breaths for the umpteenth time to relieve her tension. Her fingers tightly gripped the door handle, and her knuckles turned white from the force.

One minute, three minutes, ten minutes...

She hesitated to turn the handle and walk out of the bedroom because her inferiority complex attacked her without warning.

"I'm not good at housework, and my personality is eccentric. How can I be worthy of him? Even if I risked my life for him, if I hadn't been there, he wouldn't have been threatened by this weirdo..."

Just like the fire of courage in her heart gradually extinguished, her grip on the door handle gradually weakened.

Just before Nan Mengya was about to give up on her confession, Mu Huai's voice suddenly rang out from outside the door: "Mengya, breakfast is ready and in the living room. I'm going out to buy some ingredients."

"No! Don't leave me!!"

It was as if someone pushed Nan Mengya from behind. She suddenly opened the bedroom door, threw herself into Mu Huai's arms with tears on her face, and held him tightly with her arms.

"I love you! Mu Huai! Don't abandon me! I'll do anything!"

"Wait, I'm just going out to buy groceries, I didn't say I was going to leave you behind."

Mu Huai was at a loss for words. Just as he was about to comfort Nan Mengya, she suddenly raised her head and gave him her most passionate first kiss. He had no choice but to respond with an equally loving kiss.

For a long time, the lips are divided.

Nan Mengya gently touched her slightly red lips with her fingertips and smiled innocently: "We kissed~ and it was our first kiss that tasted like bread."

He hit her head with a gentle blow, and Mu Huai said with a straight face, "Go brush your teeth quickly. Your first kiss tastes like bread, but mine tastes like bread, and I haven't brushed my teeth all night."

"My mouth doesn't stink, haha~ smell it, there's no smell at all!"

"No, go brush your teeth quickly, and then come with me to buy groceries."

Nan Mengya was so anxious that she jumped up and down in his arms: "You smell it first, otherwise I won't go brush my teeth!"

"Why are you still so childish?"

"What's wrong with being childish? It's not like I can't do adult things!"

As soon as the words came out of her mouth without thinking, Nan Mengya hurriedly covered her mouth, and her fair face was instantly painted with a layer of attractive pink. She moved her feet and slowly retreated towards the room behind her.

The nameless fire burning in Mu Huai's pupils made her both afraid and expectant. Perhaps she was worried that he would turn around and leave, so she added another sentence without knowing the consequences.

"Face it head-on, you won't be scared, right?"

Chapter 66 Wow! Bald head!

The night is as dark as ink. The night breeze outside the window gently blows through the curtains and enters the house, bringing a hint of coolness.

The room was dim, with only moonlight shining through the screen window onto the messy bed. The air was filled with a unique smell mixed with sweat, which was not unpleasant and even a little fascinating.

Nan Mengya's chestnut hair was scattered on the pillow, and a few strands were still stuck to Mu Huai's cheeks because of sweat. Her starry eyes were slightly narrowed, like a lazy cat that had been fed and was resting in the arms of its owner.

The joy of the day seemed to still linger in every part of my body, and I could feel the tingling electric current just by moving my fingers.

"Mu Huai...I'm not dreaming, am I?"

Mu Huai knew that girls always like to ask this kind of questions at this time, so he immediately suggested with a sly smile: "How about I play Fatal Tempo Jinx C on you again? You just need to help me activate my passive, and then lie down and I'll take you flying."

"Don't do it, I'm scared."

Nan Mengya didn't think she could withstand the passive plus fatal rhythm after breaking the attack speed limit. She quickly raised her head and gently kissed the corner of his mouth, begging: "Next time, please?"

"Well, let's play duo next time."

After the spiritual and physical communication between the two, Nan Mengya's mental state can be said to have improved a lot.

If she had no love experience before and was as dull as a little widow, now she has become a love-loving woman who has finally found the rain after a long drought. She is wrapped in a pink atmosphere and all that dullness has disappeared.

Although Nan Mengya still feels inferior from time to time, Mu Huai believes that after investigating the truth behind her sister's accidental death, she will be able to completely get rid of the shadow of the past and become her true self again.

"Mu Huai... now I... can I be considered your girlfriend?"

"Of course, why would you think otherwise?"

"Hehe...it's nothing, jiu~go early and come back early!"
