In mid-December, D06 planet welcomed its first snowfall of the year.
Chu Yang stood under the streetlight at the entrance, looking up at the snowflakes falling gently on his head and face, his eyes blinking incessantly.
Shen Nanxi walked out of the hospital's back door after get off work and, following Chu Yang's gaze, curiously looked up as well.
Chu Xinhang, who was in the shop, saw two insects looking up at the door. Thinking that something interesting had happened, he came out to see them too.
Seeing this, Xu Le, who was passing by, also looked up behind Chu Yang.
"Brother, what are you looking at?"
After watching for a while, nothing strange happened; the snow that landed on my face melted instantly.
If we are together in the snow someday, we can be considered to have grown old together in this life!
Chu Yang smiled and glanced at the three insects beside him, whose bodies and heads were covered with a layer of white snowflakes.
"Hmm? My lord, what did you mean by that just now?"
Chu Xinhang's dark skin didn't appear so dark against the white snow.
"It means that we'll be together under the snow, like old worms, from our youthful days until we grow old."
Chu Yang's casual remark greatly shocked the three insects present, especially Shen Nanxi and Chu Xinhang. After hearing this explanation, they stretched out their arms and let the snowflakes fall on them.
Standing to the side, Xu Le looked thoughtfully at the snowflakes falling on her long green hair. A look of surprise flashed across her face, but then disappeared.
She stared blankly at Chu Yang's retreating figure, her thoughts drifting off somewhere else.
"Brother, we got our bonuses today."
After coming in from outside, Chu Yang used his hands to brush the snow off Shen Nanxi and Chu Xinhang's heads and bodies.
"Really? Is it because the year is almost over, and it's the year-end bonus?"
Shen Nanxi opened her watery eyes and curiously turned her head to look at Chu Yang.
"How did you know? But it's not entirely because of that. It's more because we won the war on the front lines, and our hospital provided a lot of supplies, so the government specially approved a portion of Star Coins as a reward for the hospital."
"Huh? The war was won? Does that mean we won't have to fight anymore?"
Chu Yang thought this was good news. Without war, prices would return to normal, and everyone could live and work in peace and contentment.
"No, it's only temporary. The alien beasts could come back at any time, and the front line still needs to be guarded by the female soldiers."
Xu Le spoke calmly, as if he were used to seeing scenes of war.
"Really? Those female soldiers must have worked really hard."
The snow was heavy; it had already reached a depth of 5 centimeters overnight.
Thanks to the victory in the war, prices dropped slightly, and Chu Yang took the opportunity to stockpile a large amount of raw materials, which led to a price reduction in the store.
It snowed for several days in a row, but it didn't have much of an impact because the government deployed snow removal machines.
They were responsible for spraying all the snow on all the roads, big and small, with a special de-icing agent, and then absorbing all the melted water.
Only a small amount of snow that had not melted could still be seen on some rooftops.
After the snow stopped, Wang Xingyu couldn't wait to follow Li Hui to Chu Yang's shop.
"Brother Chu Yang... Your Excellency."
He almost choked on his words, but thankfully he received a signal from Chu Yang and managed to stop himself.
"Hehe, give me two large bowls of wontons, one with chili and one without."
Wang Xingyu found a seat and sat down. Li Hui was originally standing next to him serving him his meal.
"You sit down too."
Although Li Hui was somewhat surprised, he did as instructed. Ever since the male master was discharged from the hospital, he seemed to have turned into a worm.
Her temper has become milder, and she no longer scolds or beats the insects in the house. She even allows herself to sit down and eat with them.
Li Hui sincerely wanted to thank Chu Yang for the change in Xiong Zhu. Without Chu Yang's guidance, Xiong Zhu would still be the same as before, doing whatever he wanted.
"You seem to have lost some weight since I last saw you."
Chu Yang brought over two bowls of wontons, placing the spicy bowl in front of Wang Xingyu and the other bowl in front of Li Hui.
"Hehe, I've been on a diet these past few days, so today is my day to indulge."
Wang Xingyu couldn't wait to scoop up a wonton and feed it to himself, soup and all.
"Mmm~, delicious, so delicious."
With a wonton in his mouth, he squinted and gave Chu Yang a short, chubby thumb.
"Come often if you like the food."
Having been cooped up at home for the past few days due to the snow, Wang Xingyu was getting fed up with the original owner's female servants and slaves, so he's been considering getting a divorce.
After finishing their wontons, Li Hui had to go to work, while Wang Xingyu would stay at Chu Yang's shop.
"Lord Chu Yang, I'm really sorry to trouble you to be lenient with my master."
"It's alright, Chairman Li, you can go to work without worry."
Only after Li Hui left did Wang Xingyu dare to voice his desire for a divorce.
"Divorce is possible, but your mistresses will have a hard time. They need suppressants and financial support to survive."
“I’ve also considered this. I’ll send them a few inhibitors and divorce compensation. Anyway, the Wang family isn’t short of money.”
"What about Li Hui? Are you going to divorce him too?"
Chu Yang asked seriously, explaining that he understood Wang Xingyu's desire for a divorce and that he would have done the same if he were in Wang Xingyu's shoes.
Wang Xingyu was still hesitant about Li Hui's future. He was a female ruler, and her family background was very powerful. If they divorced, it would cause a very ugly situation for both of them.
Seeing Wang Xingyu frowning and looking very conflicted, Chu Yang couldn't help but speak up.
"Officially, he's a second-generation official, handsome, rich, and powerful, with considerable strength. Personally, I think he's a very good person, and he takes good care of you. So I don't recommend you ask for a divorce now. Besides, after you divorce him, your family will definitely arrange other men for you."
Over time, I've dealt with Li Hui several times. He's definitely a good-natured guy, and he's always happy to help whenever there's something to do.
Sitting in his seat, Wang Xingyu pondered deeply, recalling his time with Chu Yang. Indeed, it was pretty much as Chu Yang had said—a good worm.
Chu Yang didn't continue speaking. As a fellow villager, he was only offering advice; the final decision was still up to him.
When Wang Xingyu returned home that evening, he called the family's veterinarian and had 50 milliliters of blood drawn to make an inhibitor.
Then they went to the family's treasurer and asked for a large sum of star coins.
All preparations were complete, and he summoned all his wives, both young and old, overnight.
Li Hui's opinion of him had changed in the past few days, but it has now reverted to his previous attitude of abandoning him. Is it true that one's nature is hard to change?
Looking at the three neat rows of concubines standing in the living room, Wang Xingyu felt a headache coming on. How lecherous must the original owner have been to have so many? No wonder he died during sex.
"My lord, have you summoned us here because I have something to announce?"
The speaker was a beautiful sub-female. The reason she dared to speak first in front of everyone without waiting for the female's permission was because she was Wang Xingyu's most beloved female servant.
Li Hui glanced at the female servant who had spoken out of the corner of his eye, wishing he could kick her to death, while also feeling angry at Wang Xingyu for condoning this behavior.
"This is the divorce agreement. I will give each of you two injections of inhibitors and a divorce settlement. Take a look at them, then sign them, and you can leave first thing tomorrow morning."
The insects were terrified, wondering if they had misheard or if their lord had made a mistake.
"My lord, are you dissatisfied with us? Please, do not abandon us."
The most favored sub-female knelt directly on the ground, tears welling up in her eyes. She knelt pitifully at Wang Xingyu's feet, but missed her target and fell to the ground.
Wang Xingyu secretly rejoiced that he had run fast, otherwise he would have been caught by him.
"My lord, isn't this divorce too hasty? Why don't you take another nap and make a decision after you've had a good night's sleep?"
Li Hui's voice trembled. He couldn't afford to get divorced, otherwise it would have a huge impact on his female father, and he wouldn't even be able to keep his current position as president.
