Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

Takayuki got very close.

The warm breath from her clear voice brushed against Ye Ge's face, making it tingle and sending a shiver through his body.

The girl's face was as cold as frost, and her voice was as calm as an ancient well without waves, but her eyes seemed to hide hooks, and her subtle teasing made one's heart pound like a drum.

"Hmm..." Ye Ge scratched his slightly itchy face: "So what kind of reward do you want?"

"We need to make love," Gao Shenxue said without hesitation.

Night Song: "..."

......

As a result, Ye Ge wasted an entire afternoon of time and energy.

After it was over, he slept for a while. Ye Ge woke up groggily and found himself lying on the girl's lap, covered with a moderately thick white blanket.

Gao Shenxue held a book about hackers in one hand, reading it quietly and attentively, while her other hand rested on Ye Ge's head, her slender fingers gently stroking his hair from time to time, as if she were soothing a sleeping child.

Ye Ge realized that her posture was rather awkward.

He curled up on his side on the girl's lap, his cheek pressed against the soft fabric of her belly, his arms unconsciously wrapped around her waist, looking like a koala cub clinging to a tree trunk.

Ye Ge even noticed that Gao Shenxue's clothes around his abdomen were stained with a little bit of drool that he had left while he was asleep...

Just as Ye Ge was feeling embarrassed, Gao Shenxue noticed that he had woken up: "You're awake?"

Ye Ge looked up at her and said, "Hmm..."

"Are you hungry? Have something to eat." Gao Shenxue put down her book. "I've just prepared dinner."

Just as Ye Ge was about to get up, Gao Shenxue pressed him down onto her lap again.

Ye Ge looked at her with a puzzled expression.

"You don't need to get up, I'll feed you." Gao Shenxue said, opening an exquisite lunchbox, picking up a spoon, scooping up a mouthful of soft rice, dipping it in the sauce next to it, and feeding it to Ye Ge's mouth.

Yege took a bite. After all, she had been used to being fed by Shenxue's mother since she was a child, so she wasn't embarrassed at all.

"You said I was going to reward you, but instead you're feeding me. Isn't that a bit much?" Ye Ge said while chewing.

Gao Shenxue said, "It's okay, being able to feed Xiaoye is my reward."

Ye Ge glanced at the exquisite lunchbox beside her, then at Gao Shenxue above her: "By the way, have I been lying like this ever since I fell asleep?"

“Hmm,” Gao Shenxue said.

"So... how did you prepare dinner?" Ye Ge asked, puzzled.

"Of course, I had Yinsha prepare it and send it over," Gao Shenxue said calmly.

"..." Ye Ge looked embarrassed, thinking to himself, "Didn't Yin Sha see me just now, snuggling in the girl's arms and sleeping?"

Night Song: "...And what was her reaction?"

Gao Shenxue thought for a moment, tilted her head, as if recalling: "She glanced at us, looked very surprised, her cheeks turned red, and then after putting down the lunchbox, she hurriedly left."

Night Song: "..."

Ah... how tall and magnificent I was in front of my servants...

Gao Shenxue picked up another piece of fried chicken strip from the box and brought it to Ye Ge's lips: "Ah~"

Still feeling down, Ye Ge instinctively opened her mouth and exclaimed, "Ah~"

"Crack!"

"Crackling, crackling..."

Well, it’s so sweet!

......

night.

Ye Ge finally returned to her room.

He opened his task list panel.

He had previously killed Horion, which triggered a reward draw, taking three items from Horion's body.

Two of the items are a Horion notebook and a gold-quality "Hell Chains".

The last item is a mission that Helion is currently undertaking as a player, and it's a "destiny mission" that he has now inherited.

So far, Yege has only done one fate-choice-type task.

That was the time the Devil Seed was activated.

Ye Ge's expression turned serious as he opened the mission details.

[Hidden Fate Quest Options]

[Note: This is a destiny quest inherited by player "Night Song" after defeating player "Helios". Completing the destiny quest will grant extremely generous rewards, but if players do not wish to continue this quest, there will be no penalty for abandoning it!]

"..."

When Ye Ge glanced at the mission details beforehand, she was indeed startled.

I never expected that Horion's destiny would be like this.

Collected genes from 496 ancient mythical beasts from the mountains and seas...

This night song is not surprising.

Upon seeing Su Yanling, who possesses the bloodline of the Nine-Tailed Fox, Su You's Qiongqi power, and Yue Xuan's demonized Xuanwu power, he had already basically guessed the secret plan of the gene company.

What Ye Ge found interesting was that both of Heleon's mission options actually had their own progress.

The progress of the first task has reached 89%, while the progress of the second task has only reached 27%.

A hint of amusement flickered in Ye Ge's eyes.

Ha, it's obvious that Harleon, that shrewd and self-serving guy, has already made two preparations.

On one hand, he diligently assisted the chairman of the gene company in collecting the genes of all the ancient mythical beasts in the Shan Hai Tu Jian (Illustrated Compendium of Mountains and Seas).

While secretly developing his own power within the company, he was ready to seize any opportunity to become a powerful figure when the chance came to rebel and rise to power.

How insidious and despicable! Harleon, you bastard...
