Forced to become a delicate companion of a paranoid lord

The daily work in Naya Castle is tedious and boring, and the Parasau people have no entertainment activities. Except for those who have a partner, everyone will basically fall asleep within an hour after finishing work.

The lord would finish work at around nine o'clock every day and return to his bedroom on the top floor, while the maids and servants in the castle would usually finish their day's work at around seven-thirty.

Maids and servants like the guards around Thrall and Gesantoya who serve the lord's partner need to be on call at all times. They do not have a fixed rest time, and usually arrange their shifts or rest according to the situation.

The castle guards work in three shifts, with shift changes at eight in the morning, four in the afternoon, and twelve at night.

After dinner that day, some of the Paraso warriors who had just finished their shift took the wooden barrels or water bags that they usually filled with water back to their homes in Gute City, while some who lived in the castle went to the backyard of the castle in groups.

After dinner, Xie Wei and Sal did not go back upstairs. Sal was a bit clingy and kept pestering Xie Wei to stay downstairs with him to handle things.

At first, Sal held Shevi in ​​his arms, but he found that this easily distracted him, and later he accidentally annoyed Little Rose, who refused to let him hold her.

So the Lord of the Snowfield settled for the next best thing and asked his partner to play around in the office for a while to keep him, a lonely and pitiful man, company.

He said that he was lonely and pitiful, but in fact he asked Ryan to pass on the order not to allow his servants to go to the office to find his Lord of the Snowfield. In Xie Wei's opinion, he was hateful and annoying.

Xie Wei stood by the window with his chin in his hand. He turned his back to Sal and sulked for a while. Then he calmed himself down and leaned quietly against the windowsill looking outside.

Sal's office is in a special location, so he can see the front yard and backyard from different windows.

There is some scenery to see in the front courtyard of Naya Castle, but as far as Xie Wei can see in the backyard, there is nothing to see.

The backyard is very large, but Xie Wei has only been to the animal shed in the backyard, and has seen some other places on the rooftop terrace.

Looking from the top floor, there is a forest in the backyard, and from the other side of the forest you can reach Grayson Lake.

Although he could see Grayson Lake from his bedroom terrace every day, Xie Wei had never been there once.

Grayson Lake is completely frozen in the winter, which Xie Wei thinks is perfect for ice fishing.

The castle has a total of seven floors, and Sal's office is on the fourth floor. In addition to the main building, there are other annexes, which are connected by corridors.

From Xie Wei's perspective, he could see many Paraso warriors walking through the corridors, some of whom were obviously guards who were off duty and preparing to go back to rest.

But for some reason they did not go to the annex building to rest, but went to the backyard in groups, and it did not look like they were going to the animal shed.

The contracted beasts are placed in the same shed as the ordinary beasts. Thrall has not stipulated that the contracted beasts must rest in the shed, so most of the time, the contracted beasts occupy territory at will in Naya Castle.

Only some younger contracted beasts would stay in the beast shed obediently. Some Paraso warriors would go to the beast shed to play with their contracted beasts after their shifts.

In order to take Little Rose back to rest as soon as possible, Sal worked obediently for a long time after Xie Wei got angry with him.

But he would also pay attention to his partner from time to time. This time, Xie Wei stood by the window for a long time. I wonder if Little Rose is still angry.

I could only tentatively say: "My little rose, it's very cold at night. You've been there for a long time. Can you come back to the sofa and rest for a while?"

The window was half open, and cold wind was indeed blowing in, but Xie Wei was wearing a thick cloak and a full set of cold-proof gear, so he didn't feel particularly cold at the moment. But after hearing what Sal said, he turned around and sat down on the sofa.

When Sal saw Xie Wei listening to him, he knew that he had calmed down.

Although Little Rose still ignored him with a stern face, Sal knew that if he could divert Little Rose's attention and talk about something that interested her, his partner would become gentle again.

On the table next to the sofa, Sal had people prepare scented tea and some desserts, with magic props maintaining the temperature. Xie Wei poured himself a cup of hot tea, drank half a cup, then picked up a piece of dessert with a milky aroma and slowly savored it.

"Xie Wei, what were you looking at just now? So engrossed?" Sal was reading the animal skin paper in his hand, but it did not stop him from diverting Little Rose's attention.

After swallowing his dessert, Xie Wei slowly replied, "The guards went to the backyard after their shift. I was watching where they were going. But I don't know what's in the backyard. I've only been to the animal shed so far."

After hearing this, Sal didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He understood Little Rose's complaint.

The Lord of the Snowfield had dug a hole for himself and could only jump into it. He replied to his partner helplessly and gently: "I may not be able to accompany you tomorrow. Can I ask Gesang and the others to accompany you to play in the backyard?"

"Okay." Xie Wei curled the corners of his lips, nodded in agreement, and then continued asking.

"During dinner, I heard others say that they were going to deliver the sweet soup to the backyard. Just now, I saw them carrying things in the opposite direction of the animal shed. Are there a lot of children there?"

Xie Wei was not sure whether the "little ones" he had heard before referred to children or teenagers. After all, the Parasau people called children, teenagers, and people younger than themselves "little ones".

"There is a goddess church in the backyard. Children who have lost their loved ones gather there. There are special people in the church to take care of them. The guards in the castle will also visit from time to time."

Sal paused for a moment, then continued: "Do you want to go and see? The kids are very lively, but a little noisy."

"Well, I'll bring some candy for them when I go there tomorrow." Xie Wei said, reaching out his hand and pretending to take something out of his clothes, but in fact he took out a piece of candy wrapped in straw paper from the system backpack.

Xie Wei cut some of the candy that was reserved for the experiment, wrapped it in paper and put it in the system backpack. He had originally intended to take it out and eat it when he had free time, but now he could use it to appease Sal.

Holding the candy in his hand, Xie Wei walked to Sal's side and first straightened the man's braids before handing the candy to the man.

"Here, this is some candy for Sal."

What Xie Wei said was confusing at first, but Sal understood it.

His little rose still remembered that he had no relatives, so when she brought candies to other little kids who had no relatives, she would also give him a piece of candy.

Instead of taking the candy, the Lord of the Snowfield went further and hugged his partner and asked her to feed him.

Being held in Thrall's arms again, Xie Wei felt that Thrall seemed a little arrogant, but he was willing to pamper Thrall occasionally.

Holding his little rose with a sticky candy in his mouth, Sal felt that he didn't need to eat any candy at all because his little rose was sweet enough.

It was so sweet that he always wanted to do something excessive.

Today, the Lord of the Snowfield finished his work ahead of schedule, and before nine o'clock, he returned to their bedroom with his partner in his arms.

There were fewer candies on the dining table. No one knew how many candies Imperial Rose had tirelessly fed to her clingy partner.

Stroking his partner's hair, Shevy patted the man who had his face buried in the crook of his neck, just as Sal usually patted him.

He was actually very sleepy, but he still forced himself to listen to Sal talk about some of his childhood memories.

In Sal's incomplete memory, his father was taller than him and his mother had long black hair that reached down to her knees.

He has two older brothers and two older sisters. His older brothers often tease him, but they also pick delicious fruits for him.

The sisters are gentle, but they can be scary when they are angry.

So they told him to run far away and not to look back, so he ran far away and never looked back once...
