I am on the Ark, a succubus, pure and innocent.

"The latest model from Nightmare Fairy, the one you said you wanted last time, remember?"

"Uh-huh!"

Croissant took the suitcase, eagerly opened it, and touched the black and gold clothes inside. She exclaimed excitedly, "Wow, the pattern, the elegant color scheme! Thank you, Brother Bai Yue. This is the first time I've ever received such an expensive gift."

"Just don't turn around and sell it for money," Bai Yue complained.

He hadn't forgotten this croissant's personality. She was a true life-experiencer; although she had a wide range of pursuits, she often didn't cherish what she got, and it wasn't unheard of for her to sell her new clothes on the spot.

"Oh no, no way! This was a gift from you, Brother Bai Yue. I'll cherish it for the rest of my life!"

Croissant smiled sincerely and held the box in her arms with great care.

"Heh... I hope so."

Bai Yue didn't have much hope for her. After all, she was just a croissant, and it wouldn't be surprising if she did something human-like sometime.

He then reached for the two boxes, one large and two small, and explained:

"The top item is a gun pendant for A-Neng and a commemorative tarot deck for Kong. The bottom item is running shoes for Texas. There is also a Tianfu membership card, which allows you to pick up a few pairs of trial shoes at the Tianfu store every month."

Croissant took them one by one, the items reaching just to her chin. She teased, "Brother Bai Yue is really generous. Are you interested in us? If the money's right, I'm fine with it, but Texas and..."

Before she could finish speaking, Bai Yue pinched her mouth shut, speechless: "Croissant, it's one thing for them, but why did you include yourself in it? I'm not that thirsty."

"Ugh—" Croissant protested with her eyes, 'Why am I not included?' That's what her eyes were saying.

Bai Yue gave her a disgusted look, turned her around, and pushed her towards the yard: "Alright, alright, you still have packages to deliver, right? Go and deliver them quickly."

Croissant, her mouth finally freed, whimpered, "Brother Bai Yue, you've hurt the fragile heart of an innocent girl!"

Bai Yue raised an eyebrow: "Oh, really? Then give me back my clothes, and I'll reluctantly add you to the list, okay?"

"Forget it then!"

Croissant immediately backed down, hugging her 'treasure' tightly. Just kidding, love can't put food on the table!

.........

After seeing Croissant off, Bai Yue locked the door, returned inside, and opened the package.

Inside was a letter on cloud-patterned paper and a rosewood box.

He picked up the letter, which read: To Junior Brother Yue. There was no signature, only a simple pattern of a qilin riding on clouds, with some lightning bolt patterns on it.

Upon seeing the pattern, Bai Yue realized it was her senior sister.

He took out a letter opener, easily tore open the envelope, and took out the letter inside, which smelled faintly of flowers. It read:

Yue, my junior:

Since our breakup, several years have passed in the blink of an eye. Whenever I recall the past, my heart is filled with countless thoughts, and my mind wanders to the Dragon Gate.

Hearing that you practice medicine in the marketplace and help the world with a kind heart, I am deeply comforted.

However, this behavior is truly reckless. How can a person of such high status be defiled? What will happen if they contract an illness?

I practice thunder magic to protect the country and its people, and to eliminate evil. You study medicine; you should also follow your master's teachings and practice medicine properly...

Bai Yue propped her chin on her left hand, looked at the stern words, and smiled helplessly. Her senior was still so fond of lecturing. Luckily, she wasn't by her side, or she would be nagged to death.

He continued reading:

Inside the box is a jade plaque, handmade in my spare time, incorporating thunder magic to ward off evil and obstacles. I hope you will wear it well.

I have too much to say to write on paper.

Now I bear the responsibility of the Dali Temple, and will soon arrive at Longmen. At that time (large area blacked out)...

Wishing you a peaceful winter and all the best.

Handwritten by senior student Lin Qingyan.

"..."

Bai Yue stared at the large area of ​​erased writing, almost choking on her own breath. What on earth was written here? It can't be shown to me, right?

Curiosity compelled him to pick up the letter and hold it up to the light, only to find that the ink had congealed into a clump, making it impossible to discern what had been written on the paper.

Ugh!

Bai Yue sighed, carefully folded the letter, put it back in the envelope, and pondered the last paragraph of her letter.

Arrive at Longmen soon...

Hmm...it's actually quite fun to think about.

Because of the widespread presence of Originium particles in this land, the two people separated by distance can only look at photos sent by the other, and haven't communicated face-to-face for a long time.

Reunion—what a beautiful word.

Chapter 52 Domestication in Progress

Inside the massage parlor, Bai Yue sat on a soft chair, his left hand supporting his pretty face, while his right hand played with a jade pendant of moderate size, the tingling sensation making him feel amused.

Wearing this thing on my body is like being glued to my senior sister all day long.

I feel quite embarrassed just thinking about it.

After playing with it for a while, he grasped the jade pendant, straightened the hand-woven red cord on it, and tied it around his neck, the jade pendant hanging straight down to his chest.

Bai Yue felt the tingling sensation it brought, patted her chest, and smiled.

He put away the envelope and the box, then went back to the basement.

By this time, Lyudmila had recovered somewhat. She tried to raise her head and forced out a weak yet alluring voice: "Is that all?"

"What?" Bai Yue tilted her head in confusion.

Lyudmila gave a mocking smile: "You've imprisoned me here just to do this kind of thing? Why don't you untie me and I'll personally teach you how to do it?"

Bai Yue blinked quickly, ignoring the nonsense in her words, and smiled faintly: "Want to get down... Hmm, looks like you're tired of standing too."

Lyudmila bit her soft palate, her smile fading as she sighed inwardly, "Damn it, looks like I'll have to stand here as punishment again."

You wretched brat, don't let me catch you off guard, or you'll be in for a world of hurt!

However, Bai Yue thought for a moment, nodded and smiled, "Okay, you've been standing here for so many days, you should take a rest."

Lyudmila looked up in surprise, and seeing his adorable smile, she felt an overwhelming sense of purity in him. This child...

But before she could finish adding the filter, Bai Yue's actions brought her back to reality.

He pulled out a strap from his pocket and skillfully began to tie her legs from the bottom up. In no time, he had her supple thighs tightly bound.

"..."

Lyudmila's gaze softened for a moment, then instantly went blank again. She stared at Bai Yue with dead fish eyes, inwardly spitting out her anger.

Damn, he's a little devil!

Bai Yue looked up and saw her gaze, and immediately felt a little aggrieved: "I was about to put you down, why are you still looking at me like that?"

"I'll let go, but why did you tie my legs again!"

Lyudmila didn't realize that her tone was like she was yelling at her family, with a hint of recklessness.

"I'm just afraid you'll run away!" Bai Yue replied matter-of-factly.

Lyudmila's throat tightened. Hey, the Syracusan swear words really do make sense. Indeed, if her body were free, she would definitely run away. Not only that, but she would also have to give this brat a 'big surprise' before she ran away!

Seeing that she was silent, Bai Yue continued her work, skillfully untying her hands and then putting the straps back on to ensure that she could not make any movements that exceeded the range of motion.

Lyudmila moved her arm, which had gone numb from being suspended, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

Haha, now that we can move around, what are these few restrictions? We can easily crack them ourselves!

But Bai Yue obviously couldn't have left such a big loophole.

After he had completely taken Lyudmila down and tied her up, he lifted her body and threw her onto the bed.

Boo!

Her body bounced bouncyly on the bed.

Bai Yue then took out a strap from her pocket and, amidst her despairing gaze, tied her limbs to the sides of the bed, leaving her lying on the bed in a spread-eagle position.

finished!

Bai Yue clapped her hands, looking at her masterpiece with great satisfaction: "How is it? Comfortable, right? I made sure to leave you some room to move around."

"Thank you so much!" she said, her voice sounding like it was being squeezed out from between her teeth.

"Hey, we're like family, don't be so polite."

Bai Yue waved her hand dismissively, sat down on the edge of the bed, tidied the hair that was falling across her face, and chuckled softly:

"But you mustn't do anything stupid. The city of Lungmen is right outside, and you're still on the Royal Guard's wanted list. They won't be as gentle as I am."

Lyudmila closed her eyes, trying to avoid seeing him, but after hearing these words, she couldn't help but feel a little fondness for Bai Yue. He cares about me!

But then it suddenly dawned on me, *Syracusan profanity*, this kid is manipulating me, isn't he!

Seeing that she was still unconvinced, Bai Yue didn't care and patted her cheek: "Then I'm leaving. I'll come back to feed you later. Oh, by the way, will you be bored? I'll put on TV for you."

Lyudmila remained silent.

But Bai Yue casually picked up the TV remote, turned on the TV, tuned to an entertainment channel, and then left the basement.

Lyudmila sniffed, and as the pleasant scent that had been lingering in her nose gradually faded, she slowly opened her eyes and looked at the brightly lit television with a somewhat complicated expression.

This child doesn't seem too bad?

She turned her head and watched TV for a while, then quickly drifted off to sleep. After being suspended for several days, and now lying on such a comfortable bed, she found it hard to resist her drowsiness.

...........

Bai Yue was driving towards the slums, not for a medical mission this time. He glanced at the jewelry box in front of him and a faint smile appeared on his lips.

I wonder if Sister Yuxia will like it.

...........

Lin Residence, Living Room

"I love so much."

Without even looking at what was in the box, Lin Yuxia said this, her face full of a happy smile.

Hehe, my little succubus is quite sensible now, she even knows to come and give me a holiday gift. She's never done this before... Oh, she has, but it was always medicine, it didn't seem like a private relationship at all!

Although she looked happy, Bai Yue was not having it.

I spent ages carefully selecting these things, and you said you liked them without even looking at them? That's so perfunctory! We have to start over!

So he shook Lin Yuxia's hand playfully, "No, Sister Yuxia, you haven't even seen what it is yet, let's do it again!"

Lin Yuxia chuckled and indulged him, "Alright, alright, let me see."

She deftly opened the box, and with her fingertips, she pulled out a white jade pendant. The white jade, tied with a red cord, radiated a warm luster, and was engraved with a faceless woman.

"Yes, it's very beautiful, I like it very much." After a quick glance, Lin Yuxia gave this reply.

But this time Bai Yue was satisfied. That's how it should be; a sense of ritual is essential!

"Help me put it on," Lin Yuxia said with a smile, handing him the pendant.

Bai Yue naturally wouldn't refuse, and happily accepted it: "Okay, this is my specialty."

Lin Yuxia rolled her eyes at him, gently tapped his forehead, and scolded him, "You ungrateful little thing, don't brag about your things in front of me. Remember this from now on."

Bai Yue gave a flattering smile: "Oh, no, Sister Yuxia was the first person I ever tied a pendant with."

"Really?"

"really!"

"You know the truth."

Crunch, crunch... Lin Gerui, watching this heartwarming scene from afar, almost crushed his cane in his hand, and a sharp grinding sound came from his mouth. Heaven knows how much he wanted to beat Bai Yue up right now.

Unfortunately... his daughter was protecting him, so he couldn't be beaten.

Damn it!

It seems I'll have to find some time to get back into the game.
