Everything went smoothly in the Scarlet Blaze World, too.

News of the latest developments was sent back every day, and everything went very smoothly.

The troops were unbeatable everywhere they went. There was no need to worry at all.

Everything went according to plan. w.a.n.g Hu was naturally very much at ease. Every day, he would look through the news that the troops sent back, cajole the two little fellows, and cultivate.

He didnt need to worry about anything else at all.

Time pa.s.sed day by day in peace.

In the blink of an eye, another eight days had gone by.

More than half a month had gone by since they had left. This day, out of the blue, w.a.n.g Hu really missed his wife quite a bit.

The yearning was unusually intense. As though the torrential floods, it was unstoppable.

On top of that, he even started to miss her more and more.

Since he had thought of it, he took action right away. w.a.n.g Hu made up his mind after just a few seconds of hesitation.

He would go and visit Silly Girl.

The second day, after he got ready, w.a.n.g Hu brought Big Treasure and Little Treasure with him, left the Tiger Kings Cave, and flew toward the Scarlet Blaze Worlds world pa.s.sage.

Daddy, are we visiting Mommy? Big Treasures big eyes blinked as he asked.

Yes, thats right. Mommy went out to work this morning. Lets go and visit her, shall we? w.a.n.g Hu replied gently.

Okay, The two little fellows answered together in their crisp and clear voices.

As though something had occurred to her, Little Treasure suddenly pouted with a slight grievance and said, Mommy hasnt tucked Little Treasure into bed for so long.

Big Treasure, too. Big Treasure immediately followed up and also gave him a similarly aggrieved look. Big Treasure hasnt played with Mommy for so long, either.

Little Treasure nodded hard.

w.a.n.g Hu naturally smiled and said, Alright, in that case, Daddy will definitely get Mommy to play with Big Treasure and Little Treasure and tuck you guys into bed this time, okay?

Okay. The two little fellows immediately beamed and replied in their young, childish voices.

Okay. Be good, and give Daddy a kiss. w.a.n.g Hu coaxed.

Big Treasure and Little Treasure exchanged a look. After a moments hesitation with a straight face, they kissed w.a.n.g Hu on the cheek one after the other.

w.a.n.g Hu returned the kisses shortly after and sped up a little.

In the blink of an eye, he had reached the other end of the world pa.s.sage with Big Treasure and Little Treasure in tow.

Mommy!

At the sight of that familiar figure, the two little fellows immediately called out with looks of joy on their little faces and started to struggle.

w.a.n.g Hu took the chance to put them down. With a smile on his face, he looked at his wife. Even after more than half a months separation, she was still as stunningly beautiful and unparalleled as ever.

Greetings, my lord.

Everyone in the hall bowed and greeted him at this point.

w.a.n.g Hu raised his hand to indicate that they may rise. Suddenly, he raised an eyebrow and suppressed his elation.

Something seemed to be wrong with Silly Girl

Is she angry? Why isnt she taking even a look at me?

Shes expressionless, and she looks as if she doesnt want anyone to go near her. Whos ruffled her feathers?

Which b.a.s.t.a.r.d is it that angered my Silly Girl and is possibly making me suffer the consequences?

His eyes narrowed slightly, and his footsteps slowed as he watched the two little fellows race toward their mother with their short, stumpy legs.

At the same time, he secretly sent a voice transmission to w.a.n.g Liang:

Whats the matter with your sister-in-law? Who made her angry?

An expressionless w.a.n.g Liang secretly returned a voice transmission:

I dont know either, Big Brother. It seems like Sister-in-laws temper has been getting worse and worse recently.

w.a.n.g Hu glanced at him dispa.s.sionately. Was that fellow really unaware? Or was he deliberately keeping mum?

Thoughts flashed past his mind. Then, he stopped thinking so deeply about it. On the surface, his smile widened as he watched Silly Girl hug and carry the two little fellows without any expression on her face. He said composedly, All of you can leave first if theres nothing important.

Understood.

Everyone in the hall naturally bowed and replied before immediately getting ready to leave.

All of them were observant people. Nothing important could compare with the Kings orders at a time like this.

Not to mention when the war was going smoothly, so there wasnt anything important at the moment.

The war is at a crucial point right now. Its a busy time at the moment. Continue to man your positions.

All of a sudden, Di Baijuns aloof and dignified voice rang out. At once, it was as though someone had pressed the pause b.u.t.ton in the entire hall.

w.a.n.g Liang and everyone else froze right away. Only their eyes swiveled back and forth between their King and Queen.

Whats going on?

w.a.n.g Hu also raised an eyebrow.

Her anger is directed at me?

What have I done wrong?

His gaze s.h.i.+fted. With an expression as though nothing was amiss, he said, Didnt all of you hear the Queen? Since its important, then continue to man your positions.

Understood. Everyone secretly heaved breaths of relief and immediately chorused.

Then, they immediately lowered their heads and quietly did what they were supposed to. Whether intentionally or otherwise, all of them seemed to be diminis.h.i.+ng their presence and ignoring w.a.n.g Hu and Di Baijun.

w.a.n.g Hu couldnt be bothered to pay any attention to them either. As though nothing had happened, he walked forward and smiled as he watched Silly Girl continue to handle war affairs with the two little fellows in her arms.

The two little fellows were also very well-behaved. They nestled and remained docile in their mothers arms, without showing any sign of impatience.

w.a.n.g Hu waited quietly while he quickly tried to think of what could have gone wrong with Silly Girl.

He hadnt done anything out of place either. He hadnt even gone to Miao Mingers.

He had stayed obediently in the Tiger Kings Cave, looked after the kids, and cultivated. He was practically the model husband.

The problem likely shouldnt lie with him.

In that case, who had angered Silly Girl? And actually caused him to have to bear the brunt of her anger?

Dammit.

A few hours went by in succession. At last, as though with great rapport among them, w.a.n.g Liang and the others finished all of their tasks, and Di Baijun temporarily gained some free time.

At this point, the two little fellows had also reached the limit of their endurance, and they started to fidget impatiently.

Di Baijun cast a couple of glances at them. At last, she stood up with them in her arms and walked toward the backyard.

w.a.n.g Hu got up calmly and followed after her.

At once, everyone in the hall heaved sighs of relief again. No matter what happened, the affairs between the King and the Queen were something that they absolutely didnt wish to become embroiled in.

In the backyard

All of them were quiet the whole way. With Di Baijun carrying the two little fellows and w.a.n.g Hu following behind them, they came to the area where Di Baijun cultivated and rested every day.

Mommy, Big Treasure misses you so much, Big Treasure whispered.

Refusing to be outdone, Little Treasure also said the same thing.

Di Baijuns expressionless countenance softened a little, and she started to talk to them softly.

As for w.a.n.g Hu, he was straight-up ignored.

After a whole ten minutes and more, upon seeing that the two little fellows had had their fill of talking, w.a.n.g Hu smiled and said, Big Treasure, Little Treasure. Why dont you go out and play by yourselves? Dont go too far, okay?

Yup, yup. Big Treasure and Little Treasure nodded repeatedly. Then, they looked at their mother.

Di Baijun turned expressionless again. After several seconds of silence, she quietly let go of them and said dispa.s.sionately, Go ahead.

Woot! The two little fellows cheered and ran out with their short, stumpy legs in the blink of an eye.

w.a.n.g Hu watched them leave. Then, a bright smile immediately formed on his face. He got up, walked over to Di Baijun, and reached out to give her a ma.s.sage.

I missed you so much, Baijun.

As he spoke, his hands had also nearly reached those delicate shoulders.

Suddenly, Di Baijun turned her shoulders to the side, her att.i.tude toward him obvious. She didnt even take a single look at w.a.n.g Hu.

w.a.n.g Hu blinked. Unaffected in the least, he s.h.i.+fted his hands slightly and forcibly ma.s.saged her shoulders. As he did, he also asked perplexedly, Whats wrong, Baijun? Who made you angry? Tell me. Ill definitely skin them.

A look of indignation formed on his countenance.

Di Baijun turned around and glanced at w.a.n.g Hu. A vague, seemingly amused look appeared on her face.

After a moments pause, she sneered and asked, Really?

w.a.n.g Hu felt a little guilty for some reason. Nevertheless, he said firmly, Yes, really. Tell me, whos the one with the death wish? How dare they make my wife angry? They must be tired of living.

The corners of Di Baijuns lips curled upward. The mocking aura around her became even stronger, and she said aloofly, In that case, you can skin yourself first.

w.a.n.g Hus expression froze. He was rendered speechless. So, it really was directed at him but he hadnt done anything wrong!

Could it be that his past deeds had been discovered?

The moment he thought of that, he became even guiltier. He smiled and started to ma.s.sage her shoulders even more earnestly. With an embarra.s.sed chuckle, he said, Dont joke around, Baijun. You wont bear to let me do it even if I really do it, will you?

At the sight of the jerks barefaced shamelessness, Di Baijun immediately became both angry and amused. She rolled her eyes disdainfully and scoffed coldly, What cant I bear to do? Dont flatter yourself.

No, Baijun, what have I done wrong? Youre so mad. w.a.n.g Hu didnt get angry. Instead, he spoke guiltily in a slow and soft voice.

Di Baijun raised a delicate brow and became even more displeased. To think that jerk was still unaware of what he had done.

Hmph, he must have forgotten all about me during this time.

At the same time, a faint aggrieved feeling also surged up within her.

That jerk isnt the same as before anymore.

He definitely wouldnt have been like this in the past.

She turned and glared at him frostily. Then, Di Baijun snorted coldly, got up, and walked out.

w.a.n.g Hu was utterly confused. He didnt quite understand.

This didnt seem like his past deeds had been discovered either.

As he wondered, he couldnt help but become somewhat resigned. Why were so many things happening when they were already an old married couple by now?

This was so troublesome.
