"Mmm." He nodded in satisfaction, "Let's sleep."
Having said that, he walked over, untied his robe, and was about to get into bed.
"Oh, right, I prepared a room for you," she said.
Meaning that even though they just got married, they would each sleep in separate beds!
Although she felt insecure this month and cared about him, it wasn't the kind of caring that made her want to sleep with him.
She seemed to be issuing an eviction order: "I'm used to sleeping alone."
Sleeping alone?
The man didn't say anything, he just looked at the large pink bed, where there was a big teddy bear. Was she usually sleeping with that smelly bear?
After looking at the bear for three seconds, his face darkened again.
On the smelly bear, there were actually three big words: Boyfriend
Was that smelly bear her boyfriend?
Her boyfriend she hugged to sleep every night?
Only then did he realize that he was living a life less than a smelly bear's?
"Honey, are you mad? That's 'Boyfriend'," she explained, "that's just its name. It was a birthday gift from my best friend Carla."
Carla, that troublemaker, had already named the bear Boyfriend when she gave it to her. Was it her fault?
"...Oh." He acknowledged with a single word.
Then he retied his robe, got dressed, and was about to leave the room. Actually, he hadn't planned to sleep with her, after all, he's a normally functioning man, who knows what would happen if they slept together?
"Well then, I'm leaving?"
"Mmm." She nodded, "Good night~"
Lucas Knight: "Good night, my woman."
...
The "missing" husband was found, and she finally slept soundly and peacefully.
After all, the last time they registered the marriage, he disappeared, and she didn't sleep well. Now that he was back, she could finally have a restful sleep.
At midnight.
Since the Sovereign Capital is a city that never sleeps, this time was the most illuminated.
The neon lights outside shone through the retro-style drapes, casting onto the furry carpet inside the room, where Eva Nightingale was already asleep, the quiet air filled with her gentle and even breathing.
Just then, in the quiet of the night, there was suddenly a sound. With a "click," the locked bedroom door was easily opened, and a tall figure walked in.
In the dim light, his handsome face was even more profound and defined, his narrow, sharp phoenix eyes slightly squinting, staring at that smelly bear she was hugging so sweetly.
Why wasn't it him that his wife was hugging?
Didn't that smelly bear know it was taking his place?
Eva turned over, kicking the bear aside. The opportunity arose, and the man didn't hesitate for a moment. He quickly grabbed the smelly bear and took it out the door.
When he returned, the bear was gone.
He lifted the covers, got into the bed, and with a sweep of his big hand, pulled the little woman into his arms.
Then as if performing magic, he pulled out a dazzling diamond ring and placed it on the woman's slender ring finger.
After that, he said, "Little woman, its name: Unique Night."
The ring is the Sovereign Empire's rarest Heart of the Ocean deep blue transparent diamond, an unparalleled treasure, mainly tanzanite blue in color.
The empire only has one.
On the inside of the ring, four words are inscribed: Forever Night's Love.
Eva was in a daze of sleep, only feeling something cool on her hand, then a soft, slightly cold sensation seemed to touch her lips.
The feeling was fleeting.
Lucas Knight left her lips and quietly disappeared from the room. Because he was entangled for seven days, he could only avoid her as much as possible.
