No one notified me in advance. Everyone in the end times is crazy.

"Xiaoyu, are you alright?"

Luo Shiyu wiped away her tears, pulled the cloak off He Gui and wrapped it around herself, then huddled in the corner of the sofa like a punching bag, glaring at He Gui.

"You bastard!"

He Gui, who was tying her belt, was amused by him and said indulgently, "Yes, that's me."

"A bastard who turns his back on his friends after pulling up his pants."

"Shall I take it off now?" He Gui said, about to untie the belt he had just tied.

"No!" Luo Shiyu ran over to stop him, the cloak she was wearing slipped to the ground, and she stood there openly in front of He Gui.

"Xiaoyu, are you... not full?"

"I'm not!"

Luo Shiyu draped the heavy cloak over He Gui's head before daring to bend down and pick up the shirt that someone had carelessly torn off and thrown on the ground.

"Xiaoyu, are you really that wary of me?"

"I know you too well."

He Gui chuckled twice and stood there waiting for Luo Shiyu to help him take off the cloak from his head and put it back on his shoulders.

"Are you just standing here waiting for me to serve you?"

"Yes, I'll serve you in bed, and you'll serve me off the bed."

"That was the sofa."

"No difference."

"Tch! Aren't you hungry?"

"I'm hungry~ I didn't eat last night."

"Then you still..."

"It won't delay anything; eating Xiaoyu will fill me up just the same." (It's normal for turtles to eat fish, right?)

"Shameless." Luo Shiyu said casually, and went to lift the lid off the steamed dumplings in the steamer.

He Gui seemed to be glued to him, following behind Luo Shiyu with her hands around his waist. When he walked, she walked; when he stopped, she pressed herself against him.

"Return."

He Gui nuzzled Luo Shiyu's neck contentedly and replied, "Mmm."

"You... never mind." Seeing He Gui's expression, Luo Shiyu swallowed back the words she was about to say. She picked up her chopsticks, broke the steamed dumpling in half, blew on one half to cool it down, and then fed it to He Gui.

"Try it, is it good?"

He Gui nodded with a happy smile.

"Then we'll just go eat over there."

"No~ I want Xiaoyu to feed me."

"If your subordinates knew that the cold-faced commander of yesteryear now needs to be fed, do you think they wouldn't laugh at you?"

"Don't worry, they wouldn't dare. At most, they'd just laugh to themselves."

"How can someone be so shameless?"

"You'll never find a wife if you're too shy."

"Hmm, I'm speechless."

"Then focus on feeding me."

Luo Shiyu muttered under her breath, "I really owe you something." She picked up the remaining half of the steamed dumpling and fed it to He Gui, then took out a small pot and boiled water.

"Hmm? What is Xiaoyu going to do now?"

"Cook some noodles for Chenchen."

"And me?"

"You want some too?"

"Otherwise? Xiaoyu is biased; she only has Chenchen in her heart and not me."

"No? I'll cook for you if you want to eat it. Why would you eat something sour like a child?"

"I just like sour things. I want Xiaoyu to only have me in her heart."

"Go to sleep, you can have anything in your dreams."

He Gui let out a soft "humph" through her nose, her tone full of coquettishness.

"Xiao Yu~"

Luo Shiyu mimicked his tone and said, "What~"

"If Chenchen's mother came back to life, would you still want me?"

"you guess."

"If I and she both fell into the water at the same time, who would you save?"

Are you sure you won't freeze the water?

"I do not care!"

"Hahaha~" Luo Shiyu laughed until he was shaking. He couldn't help but laugh at the thought of He Gui always secretly competing with that non-existent first love.

“It’s not funny at all, I’m being serious.”

"I'll save you, okay? I'll save you, alright?"

Luo Shiyu smiled and fed the steamed dumpling into He Gui's mouth, using it to shut him up.

"I feel like Xiaoyu is just giving me the runaround."

"Eat quickly, we'll be late for the meeting."

After feeding He Gui, he hugged and kissed her repeatedly. The alarm on the smart device rang again and again before He Gui reluctantly let go of Luo Shiyu.

"Hurry up, you got up so early and you're still late for the meeting."

"It's only ten minutes."

He Gui was about to leave when he turned back, cupped Luo Shiyu's face, and kissed her. Feeling unsatisfied, he kissed her again before finally going to the meeting in high spirits.

As the door to the office opened, Luo Chen happened to come out from the opposite door.

"Father? Didn't you go to the meeting?"

"I'll go right away. Oh, by the way, Chenchen."

"what?"

"Xiaoyu made you breakfast, go and eat. You don't need to go to the rooftop restaurant today."

"Dad's here?"

Luo Chen's face was filled with an undisguised childlike joy.

He Gui felt a pang of jealousy for a moment when he saw his expression, but then he thought that they were father and son, and he was the one who had interfered. He immediately softened his expression, patted Luo Chen's head, and said in a very kind tone, "Go eat quickly, or the noodles will get soggy."

"it is good!"

"I'm going to a meeting now."

"Father, take care."

"Ah."

After seeing He Gui off, Luo Chen rushed into the living room excitedly and shouted as he entered, "Dad!"

"Chenchen? I haven't had a chance to come find you yet. Come and eat."

"Ok!"

Luo Shiyu brought the noodles and steamed dumplings to the table and went to the kitchen to prepare Luo Chen's lunchbox.

Luo Chen used a fried egg to coat a mouthful of noodles with his chopsticks, stuffed it into his mouth, smacked his lips, and finished it with satisfaction, saying, "Mmm~ It tastes like Daddy's!"

"Haha~ What are you saying? Everyone else says 'Mom,' but you say 'Dad.'"

"Because I only have my dad! And I only have my dad left."

The second sentence was noticeably softer than the first, its faint sound drowned out by the sizzling noise from the pot.

"Chenchen".

"What's wrong, Dad?"

"Do you have some free time in the morning? Dad would like to ask Bai Yu for a favor."

"Yes!" Luo Chen said, speeding up his eating.

"Eat slowly. If you don't have time in the morning, you can eat in the evening."

Luo Chen nodded, unable to speak.

Less than three minutes later, Luo Chen wiped his mouth and said, "Dad, I'm done eating."

"Huh? Did you chew it?"

"Okay, Dad, what kind of help do you need from Teacher Baiyu?"

Luo Shiyu poured the stir-fried dishes into a lunchbox to cool, and then called Luo Chen to come with her.

Luo Chen followed Luo Shiyu into He Gui's room. It was the first time he had entered He Gui's room. Unlike the cold and aloof office, the bedroom was unusually cozy.

The two entered the ghostly realm hidden in the wall one after the other. Yu Jiajia was sitting on the sofa reading a book. Hearing the noise, she folded the corner of the page she was reading, closed the book, and greeted them: "You're here."

Luo Shiyu: "Okay, Chenchen, quickly call him Uncle Yu."

Luo Chen: "Hello, Uncle Yu."

Yu Jiajia: "You too, you've grown quite a bit taller in the past year."

Luo Chen scratched his head a little embarrassedly and said, "Being able to eat and sleep well naturally makes you grow faster."

Luo Shiyu: "Alright, Chenchen, hurry up and call Bai Yu out."

Luo Chen: "Oh, okay."

A flash of white light appeared, and before Bai Yu could be seen, his voice was heard: "Looking for me?"

“Yes, I need your help. To be precise, my friend is in some trouble.” Luo Shiyu said, pulling Yu Jiajia over and untying the cloth strip tied to his forearm to show Bai Yu. “Do you know what this is?”

Bai Yu covered half of his face with a white feather fan, his eyes narrowed, with an expression of watching the spectacle.

"congratulations."

"Congratulations?" Yu Jiajia didn't understand what he meant.

"You're going to be a ghost bride."
