176: Asking wolves to herd sheep

“Alright then, have your brother-in-law go with her.”

Tang Xinyi agreed.

Because if she insisted on going, it would likely be counterproductive, and she wouldn’t achieve her desired goal.

After all, if her younger sister didn’t want her to know, she definitely wouldn’t call out her crush.

But having Xu Zimo go with her was different; her younger sister’s guard wouldn’t be as high.

“Thank you, Sis!”

Tang Xinyao was overjoyed; she hadn’t expected her older sister to be so agreeable, so easily “lending” her brother-in-law to her.

She was smiling.

Tang Xinyi was also smiling.

Secretly, she sent a message to Xu Zimo: “Hubby, are you busy?”

From her address, one could see her standing in Xu Zimo’s heart.

Although Xu Zimo was busy, he still made time.

He replied to his Little Beloved Wife’s message: “Not too bad, what’s up?”

“It’s like this: Xinyao and her classmates are going to Window of the World tomorrow, and I wanted to go with them, but she wouldn’t let me…”

When Xu Zimo saw this message, his heart tightened.

No way.

Had he been discovered?

But soon, he realized he had been overthinking.

“If you’re free tomorrow, can you help me keep an eye on Xinyao? I think she’s definitely on a date with someone she likes. Pay attention, and if possible, bring him home for dinner…”

“…”

Doesn't he eat at home often?

“Okay.”

Xu Zimo still agreed… The five-player ranked game ended at ten o’clock.

Xu Zimo pulled Jiang Yuwei back to the master bedroom.

Not long after they left, Lin Zhuimiao and Jiang Youqi also returned to their room, leaving only Feng Fangfang alone in the living room.

It wasn’t until she returned to her room that Jiang Youqi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She always seemed to be worried about something.

Even Lin Zhuimiao could tell that her roommate had something on her mind and couldn’t help but ask, “Qiqi, what’s wrong? Are you in a bad mood?”

“No.”

Jiang Youqi gently shook her head, but there was a hint of sorrow between her brows.

This sorrow was brought to her by her family.

It was already June twentieth, and there weren’t many days left until the summer holiday.

Everyone was looking forward to the holiday, but she… was the exact opposite.

She didn’t want to go back to that home.

And Lin Zhuimiao, too excited from seeing Xu Zimo, didn’t notice these details.

As usual, the two lay on the same bed, whispering secrets.

However, most of the time it was Lin Zhuimiao talking, while Jiang Youqi acted as a listener.

Master bedroom.

Jiang Yuwei was very surprised.

Her brother had changed, so much so that she barely recognized him.

She didn’t quite understand why someone so grown up would still… be growing.

But she still accepted this fact.

Next were 1,325 characters that only VIP readers could see.

Jiang Yuwei fell asleep in Xu Zimo’s arms, with traces of tears still on her eyelids.

Xu Zimo went online and gifted some items to Tan Sisi, who was live streaming. Of course, he didn’t forget to manage Xu Liyang’s emotions.

He was truly a bit greedy for that sheep.

The maturity about her was actually a kind of charm, and it was a natural charm. In professional terms, it was a born enchanting physique.

Such people were rare.

Since he had met her, he certainly couldn't miss out.

Closing his phone and confirming that Jiang Yuwei was asleep, Xu Zimo got out of bed and left the master bedroom.

The lights were off outside, but there was some dim light from beyond the French windows, vaguely revealing a figure on the sofa.

It was Feng Fangfang.

Hearing the sound, she immediately got up.

“Brother, I missed you so much…”

Finally, she too could throw herself into the embrace she had yearned for day and night.

“Is Weiwei’s combat power that bad today?”

She muttered softly.

It hadn't even been an hour, and Xu Zimo had already come out of the master bedroom.

It seemed… a little different from usual.

“What, you want to try too?”

Xu Zimo raised an eyebrow.

He had just added the attribute points, not only had his stamina recovered, but his physique had also reached 62 points.

This was already far beyond ordinary people.

He felt that his physique back when he was on the university team was probably similar to what it was now.

At that time… he was like an ox, feeling no fatigue at all.

If it increased to 70, that would definitely be far above ordinary people, perhaps even athlete level.

Because Xu Zimo could truly feel the improvement in his physique, he became increasingly eager to see how incredibly strong he would become once his physique was further enhanced.

It's just that… attribute points were a bit difficult to obtain.

“(*^_^*) Hehe…”

At this moment, Feng Fangfang was clearly unaware of the seriousness of the situation, still acting playfully.

She even actively sat in Xu Zimo’s arms to prove that she wasn’t afraid.

The result… was tragic.

Sorrow flowed like a river.

[Then the word count was eaten by the divine beast again.]

Tsk!

So weak.

Only good with her mouth.

After Xu Zimo lectured her for over half an hour, he thoughtfully carried her back to her room.

After returning to the living room, he sent a message to Lin Zhuimiao… Inside Lin Zhuimiao and Jiang Youqi’s room, it had become quiet.

It seemed both of them had fallen asleep.

Suddenly, Lin Zhuimiao’s phone vibrated slightly, and the screen lit up.

She unlocked the screen and checked the message, and her eyes immediately lit up.

She didn’t rush to get up.

She first carefully looked at Jiang Youqi beside her.

Her breathing was very steady, and she hadn't spoken for a long time, so she must have been asleep.

She carefully got out of bed and then tiptoed towards the door… In fact, Lin Zhuimiao didn’t know that Jiang Youqi, troubled by her thoughts, was still pondering and hadn’t fallen asleep.

She knew when Lin Zhuimiao got out of bed.

But she didn’t pay too much attention.

Getting up in the middle of the night, that’s normal, right?

However, even though Lin Zhuimiao was very careful, opening the door still made some noise.

Jiang Youqi opened her eyes in confusion, watching her good friend leave the room.

Was she going to the kitchen for water?

At first, Jiang Youqi didn’t pay it any mind, but ten minutes passed, and Lin Zhuimiao still hadn’t returned.

Had something happened?

Jiang Youqi felt a little worried, so she turned on the bedside lamp, put on her slippers, and then walked towards the door.

As soon as she opened the door, some strange sounds entered her ears.
