Chapter 73: Ning Xueluo Finally Emerges from Seclusion

Hearing Wang Yuxiao’s aggrieved voice, Wang Haoran asked,

“Don’t cry, what happened?”

After snuggling in Wang Haoran’s arms for a few minutes, Wang Yuxiao began to explain.

“It’s all the fault of those idiots in Blood Butterfly. They didn’t investigate properly and just took on the mission!”

“The Seven Kill Hall and the Death God Society were in a fierce battle, and they accepted a mission from the Death God Society to attack the Seven Kill Hall! The worst part is, they got exposed after the kill!”

“As a result, the Seven Kill Hall got furious and dispatched two Seven Kill Envoys. I had just resigned and was coming back when the two Seven Kill Envoys attacked our Blood Butterfly headquarters, and during the fight…”

“My dad’s grave got blown up!”

“Boohoo… Haoran, do you know how I felt when I saw my dad’s coffin board fly up?”

“Boohoo…”

Wang Haoran patted Wang Yuxiao’s head to comfort her.

“Xiaoxiao, don’t cry. Even though your dad’s grave blew up, the urn is still intact, right?”

On the table sat a box, and judging by the design and the gray portrait of a middle-aged man on it, it was likely Wang Haoran’s father-in-law’s urn.

“Yeah! Luckily, I had the urn specially reinforced. Otherwise, my dad really would’ve ended up like the Blood Butterfly code, scattered everywhere!”

“When I saw my dad’s grave blow up, I risked my life to grab the urn and then escaped amidst the chaos.”

Wang Yuxiao looked up slightly, her expression saying, “I did great, hubby praise me,” prompting Wang Haoran to give her a kiss.

“Xiaoxiao, you did great! Don’t worry, I’ll find a new spot for your dad. I remember there’s still space next to my dad’s grave.”

“Tomorrow, we’ll bury your dad there, letting the two in-laws chat and keep each other company in the afterlife!”

Wang Yuxiao nodded.

“Yeah, hubby, you’re the best! If my dad were still alive, he’d definitely love you as his son-in-law!”

The two cuddled on the sofa for a while.

Until Wang Yuxiao went to take a bath, Wang Haoran got up to check on Yun Ling’er.

Approaching the room, he heard excited voices inside.

“Xiaoyan, move! Attack him!”

“Xiaoyan, hold on, I’ll heal you after I finish this monster!”

“Xiaoyan, why did you die?!”

“It’s okay, I’ll avenge you! Watch my moves…”

“Xiaoyan, wait, let’s go bot lane together after I respawn!”

Hearing Yun Ling’er’s voice, Wang Haoran decided not to disturb her.

With Wang Yuxiao still bathing, Wang Haoran decided to wait in his room.

After a short while, someone opened the door. Looking up, Wang Haoran saw Ning Xueluo, whom he hadn’t seen in a while.

“Luoluo, you’re out of seclusion?”

Ning Xueluo didn’t respond, looking rather downcast.

She slowly walked to the bed, hugged Wang Haoran, and rested her head on his shoulder.

“Haoran, I’m sorry. I failed to break through… despite the precious herbs you gave me…”

Wang Haoran observed that her injuries were fully healed, and her Martial Strength had returned to the peak of Hua Jin at 495.

He embraced Ning Xueluo by the waist, pulling her closer.

“It’s okay. As long as you’re healthy, I’m happy. If you had forced the breakthrough and ended up injured, I’d be angry.”

“Mm…”

Ning Xueluo softly responded, rubbing her cheek against Wang Haoran’s right cheek.

Feeling tickled by her hair, Wang Haoran’s dishonest hands started moving despite his righteous brain.

The room’s atmosphere heated up.

Ning Xueluo, her eyes sparkling, said, “Husband, I’ll go take a bath first, wait for me here…”

“Or… do you want to join me…”

“Together!” Hearing her change of address, Wang Haoran knew she was moved, and he immediately decided.

Luckily, the house was big, with two bathrooms on the second floor.

As Wang Haoran carried Ning Xueluo bridal style towards the door, someone else walked in.

“Luoluo jie?”

In her pajamas, Wang Yuxiao looked surprised.

Caught in the act, Ning Xueluo calmly replied.

“Xiaoxiao. Husband and I are taking a bath together now, you can wait to play games.”

“…Alright…”

Wang Yuxiao glanced at Wang Haoran, agreed, and quickly sat on the bed.

Then, she reminded Ning Xueluo, who was holding Wang Haoran’s neck.

“Luoluo jie, just heat the food for me first!”

“But don’t sneak a bite while heating!”

***

In the room.

“Phew…”

Yun Ling’er put down her phone, feeling a bit helpless.

Can’t carry, really can’t carry!

Even with her pro skills, Xiaoyan remained stuck in Bronze One after playing half the night.

Unlike her, who solo climbed to Silver Five.

Maybe it’s the understanding of the game!

Sighing and stretching, Yun Ling’er got up and left her room for a drink.

At the room’s door, she suddenly glanced back at Wang Haoran’s room.

Seeing the tightly closed door, she felt a strange sense of unease.

And it felt familiar…

Thinking this, Yun Ling’er abandoned her plan to get water and quickly walked to Wang Haoran’s room, opening the door.

Entering, three figures came into view.

“Hmph, I knew it!”

“You guys are gaming offline without me!!”
