An Rongruo had been frightened for several days, and after experiencing Mu Xiao's stimulation for a day, her spirit became extremely tired. Moreover, she had just become a new human being, and after eating a nutritious mutated meat, her body needed to undergo an absorption and adjustment process.

  So she needs rest both mentally and physically.

  An Rongru just lay on the bed for a short while before falling asleep. If it were in the past, in that room of the lawyer's building, she would often be awakened by the dead silence and fear at night. Perhaps now that she has found solace in her heart, she senses Mu Xiao's presence, feels safe with him by her side, and puts aside her worries to fall asleep peacefully.

  Mu Xiao didn't act like a gentleman and sleep separately from An Rongru, instead he directly snuggled into her fragrant and warm quilt. She wasn't sleeping too deeply, possibly due to the fear of the past few days, making her a bit nervous, and any slight movement beside her would startle her awake.

  When she opened her beautiful eyes to find Mu Xiao sleeping beside her, Xiu Ya's face was flushed with a charming red glow, and two delicate pink clouds floated up, her eyelashes trembling shyly. Those pair of misty, watery eyes seemed to be rippling like waves, and when they blinked, they were filled with an enticing, seductive aura, radiating wave after wave of tender, alluring beauty.

  ……

  After a night of struggling, under An Rongru's insistence on defense, Mu Xiao did not break through her last line of defense. However, after their intimacy, it can be considered that the relationship between men and women has been confirmed. After all, the intimacy of the two for one night has already exceeded many ordinary couples. It's just that Mu Xiao found it strange why An Rongru had such a shy and awkward reaction during intimacy, even kissing was so clumsy. But he didn't think much about it, thinking that An Rongru hadn't been with a man for too long, and her body and mind were conservative.

  ……

  The bright sunshine in the morning dispelled the chill of the night, but it could not dispel the deathly silence and desolation that pervaded the world.

  The room guarded by Mu Xiao had no sunlight, still the monotonous white light, but Mu Xiao's biological clock could adjust at any time. He got up around 7 o'clock, while An Ruxin was still sleeping in bed. Last night, Mu Xiao flirted with her constantly until she fell asleep in his arms late at night, and she hadn't woken up yet.

  Last night, the kitchen still had a large portion of vegetables and meat. If they are not consumed in time, they will go bad in a few days. After all, most of the world's machinery has broken down, including the refrigerator here which has been out of order for more than two days. If it weren't for its backup freezing function, perhaps by the time Mu Xiao arrives, all the food would have gone bad.

  Mushu took the remaining food that couldn't be taken away and made a big stir-fry, which was all vegetables and meat. She also cooked a large pot of white rice because there was too much rice to take away, so they just ate as much as they could and left the rest here. They would clean up this villa area's supplies after settling into the lawyer's building.

  When Mu Xiao brought up the rich and exaggerated breakfast, An Rongruo smelled the fragrance and slowly woke up. She saw Mu Xiao staring at her, and her face couldn't help but turn red as she remembered the confusing and enchanting things that happened last night.

  "Go wash your face and have breakfast first, then we'll head to the villa district. You want to find your daughter as soon as possible, don't you?" Mu Xiao saw her blush and guessed that she was a bit unnatural in her heart, so he said a sentence to divert her attention.

  "Uh-huh, I'll go now."

  As expected, An Rongruo heard about her daughter's situation and immediately took action...

  An Rongru just got out of bed and felt a chill, noticing Mu Xiao's playful gaze that seemed to be smiling but not quite. She immediately reacted, pulling the quilt over herself in embarrassment, wrapping her body and quickly walking towards the bathroom. Not long after, she came out wearing the already dry exercise clothes, perhaps having developed a layer of intimacy with Mu Xiao overnight. She didn't have an overly shy expression, and even occasionally looked at Mu Xiao with eyes full of tenderness and affection.

  A big meal for breakfast, Mu Xiao and An Rongru finished everything, and An Rongru was also slightly surprised by her own appetite, followed by worries about her weight. After all, ladies are very concerned about their figure. However, Mu Xiao explained that she had just evolved into a new human, and an increased appetite is natural, and the body after evolution doesn't worry about getting fat at all.

  The two of them just cleaned up after dinner, put on their full gear and weapons, tied up their backpacks and were ready to set off.

  "Mu Xiao..." An Rongru hesitated, calling out in a hesitant tone, wanting to say something but afraid of displeasing Mu Xiao.

  "From now on, just call me 'Xiao'. And from now on, you don't have to be so formal in front of me." Mu Xiao said with a smile.

  "Uh-huh." An Rongruo felt that Mu Xue had clearly changed his attitude towards her, and her heart warmed up. She understood that he wasn't the kind of man who would forget his feelings and neglect his promises. Softly, she said: "Xue, if you see my daughter, can you keep our relationship a secret for now?"

  "Alright." Mu Xiao readily agreed, and An Rongru was moved to the point of clarity that she had already become this man's woman.

  But Mu Xiao suddenly changed his tone and looked at An Rongru seriously, saying: "You are now my woman, and from now on I have the responsibility to protect you..."

  An Rongru's face was soft and delicate, with a lively spirit, and she felt an extremely stable feeling in her heart. However, as soon as Mu Xiao spoke up, she quickly became serious again.

  "I won't give you up, but I'd rather you become a qualified new human who can help me withstand unknown dangers in the future, rather than just being a plaything on my bed."

  "Uh-huh."

  An Rongru nodded, but didn't know how to react. Mu Xiao only showed his determination later, and could only prove his usefulness through actual actions afterwards.
