“…” Xia Qingyue didn’t reply With a wave of her snowy hand, she extinguished all of the red candle in the space of a second The room was immediately pitch black, and her heart also secretly let out a sigh She reached out and pushed Xiao Che to the inside, pulled the blanket over, and covered both of their bodies with it Laying down sideith her back to Xiao Che, she said in a quiet and cold voice: “You don’t need to think about it toothis to make it more convenient for you to treat … You’re not allowed to do forbidden things!

It had unwittingly beco This was the darkest time before dawn, and the entire Xiao Clan was peaceful The only sounds that could be heard were the occasional buzzing of insects
In the darkness, froht creak sound and, following that sound, the securely closed house door slowly opened A petite shadoly snuck out and, after peering at the surroundings for a while, quickly ran fled outside
The shadow hadn’t been able to step outside the courtyard gate when a tall, gray figure suddenly dropped froirl’s cry of alarreat effort: “Xi Er, where are you going this late at night?”
“Ah! Da… daddy!” The greatly frightened shadow pulled down the shroud covering her face, revealing a lovely and touching girl’s face It really was Xiao Lingxi Looking at the Xiao Lie that had suddenly appeared in front of her, her soul shook mo sigh, then said in a low voice: “Xi Er, you want to go steal the Profound Opening Powder, right?”
