The beauty of a bath.

Xia Tian was completely stunned. The vapor surrounding Ceng Rou’s body was like clouds in the sky, adding another layer of elegance to Ceng Rou, whose perfect proportions were laid bare for Xia Tian to see.

“Uh, where’s my room?” Xia Tian no longer dared to stay in Ceng Rou’s home. If he did, what would happen in the night was no guarantee.

“You’ll be in that room and Tian Tian and I will be sleeping in the room beside yours.” Ceng Rou pointed at a room on the first floor.

“Alright, I’ll be heading to sleep then.” Xia Tian hastily left the forbidden land he was currently in.

Seeing him scampering off like a scared rabbit had made Ceng Rou smirk with joy. She had smiled quite a few times today. Usually, Ceng Rou would barely show any emotion, but after meeting Xia Tian today, her smile had barely left her face.

She knew that the true reason Xia Tian ran off was for fear that he would lose control. Had it been any other man who was sharing the same room as her, she would still feel insecure even with a couple of layers of clothing. However, that was not the case for Xia Tian. Even under her thin shower robe, she felt completely at ease.

Heck, she was slightly put off by how honest Xia Tian was.

“Tian Tian, do you like Brother Xia Tian?” Ceng Rou asked her daughter, who she had currently in her arms.

“I do,” answered Lil Tian Tian.

“Mama likes Brother Xia Tian too, but I’m far too old…” That was the biggest chasm that Ceng Rou felt divided them. While she liked Xia Tian a lot and had wanted to spend every moment with him, she realized she could not be so selfish.

Seeing Tian Tian’s eyes closing, Ceng Rou carried her back into their room.

“Mama, I want to sleep with brother!” Lil Tian Tian uttered innocently.

“No, you’re not going to. Be a good girl, Tian Tian, Brother Xia Tian’s already very tired, and you need to sleep too.”

“No, I want to be with Brother Xia Tian!”

Back in Xia Tian’s room.

Throughout his entire life, Xia Tian had always had peaceful slumber as the Empyrean Slumber Technique could only be cultivated during sleep. However, even after tossing and turning several times, he was still unable to truly fall asleep.

For the first time, he had insomnia.

After all, whenever Xia Tian closed his eyes, the only thing that came to his mind was Ceng Rou.

Knock! Knock!

“Xia Tian! Are you asleep?” Ceng Rou’s voice reverberated through the room.

“Not yet.” Xia Tian opened the door.

Ceng Rou stood in the doorway in a negligee, looking absolutely stunning. Her soft skin looked no worse than that of a twenty-year-old’s.

“Tian Tian won’t sleep without you.” Ceng Rou spoke with an exasperated tone.

“Alright.” Xia Tian pulled Tian Tian into his room.

“Mama, come!” Lil Tian Tian extended her hand to Ceng Rou.

“What’s wrong, Tian Tian? Didn’t you want to be with brother?” Ceng Rou asked.

“Mama, together!” Although Lil Tian Tian was a toddler, both Xia Tian and Ceng Rou understood what she meant. She wanted for Xia Tian and Ceng Rou to be together.

“Be respectful, Tian Tian. You should go with brother, mama will be in the next room.”

“No… no… Mama needs to be with me too.” Lil Tian Tian had a pleading look in her eyes, and it appeared as if she was on the brink of tears.

Seeing how pitiful Tian Tian looked, Ceng Rou was forced to comply. “Alright, mama gets it.”

The moment the little girl heard her mother agreeing to her wish, she immediately perked up and flashed a sweet smile.

“You rascal.” Ceng Rou jokingly chastised Tian Tian.

“Sorry for troubling you.” Ceng Rou muttered to Xia Tian.

Xia Tian awkwardly scratched his head. “Don’t worry, it’s no trouble at all.”

The three of them made their way into the bed. Xia Tian was sleeping on the outer edge, while Ceng Rou was sleeping on the inside with Tian Tian in the middle. Since Tian Tian was tiny, there was not much separating Ceng Rou and Xia Tian.

The two of them felt totally out of place, and they did not know what to say. Soon after, Tian Tian had fallen asleep.

Xia Tian was originally restless before this but now that Ceng Rou was by his side, his insomnia had gotten even worse. After all, he could clearly feel the body heat coming from her body.

Despite that, Ceng Rou’s situation was not too different from Xia Tian as she too, could not sleep.

At that instant, Xia Tian suddenly heard a soft thud.

“Someone’s here.” Xia Tian gently got off the bed and retrieved the Emerald Cloud Dagger by his side.

“What’s the matter?” Seeing the way Xia Tian acted had instilled a sense of urgency into Ceng Rou.

“You usually sleep in the room next to mine, right?” Xia Tian muttered under his breath.

“Yeah.”

“Then my intuition must be correct. Stay here and don’t move. I’ll be back soon.” Xia Tian quietly exited his room.
