The gentle, sickly beauty is a cold and aloof general.

Atal lowered his eyes, and Jun Ming couldn't quite see Atal's gaze and expression.

If tonight is the last time I'll be so tender, then I want to hold on tight.

"I want to go, may I, my lord?"

Jun Ming naturally granted Atar's every request.

Because the atmosphere at the dinner table was somewhat heavy, neither Junming nor Atar ate much.

The dessert, however, was all eaten up.

Eating something sweet will ease the bitterness in your heart.

As usual, I sat on the sofa for a while, lazily played with my personal computer, and read a few gossip posts, such as which male insect married a female servant, and which family had another female insect offspring.

Jun Ming was so sleepy watching it.

That's so boring.

Atal had gone to his own bedroom to wash up and get ready.

"Let's go back and wait for Atal."

Knowing that Atal hadn't eaten much for dinner and would surely feel hungry by midnight, Junming instructed Dundun to make some late-night snacks and keep them warm before going upstairs.

It's always better to be prepared.

Back in his bedroom, Junming began washing up and getting ready.

Atal had finished showering early, dried his hair, and was only wearing a bathrobe.

After thinking for a moment, Atal put down his hand that was picking out pajamas.

A bathrobe...isn't that a type of clothing?

I deliberately loosened the belt of the bathrobe to make sure it could be easily torn open.

Atal then went to Junming's bedroom.

Jun Ming was still washing up, the sound of running water never ceasing.

Atar felt guilty for doing something wrong, and quietly climbed into bed and slipped into Junming's blankets.

The blanket still held the scent of him and Junming sleeping together last night.

Leaning against the pillow and covering himself with the blanket, Atal swept his silver hair to his chest and spread it on the blanket before stopping his actions.

Quietly wait for Jun Ming to finish washing up.

Jun Ming felt it was still early, so he casually dried his hair until it was half dry, and then combed his bangs to the top of his head.

He revealed his pure black eyes.

Perhaps because his mental energy has a hypnotic effect, Jun Ming's eyes often possess a captivating quality.

On Blue Star, few dare to look Jun Ming directly into his eyes, for fear that they might accidentally drown in his gaze and lose their minds.

Jun Ming looked at himself in the mirror; it was a face that was completely unmasked.

There's no need to deliberately maintain the upward curve of your lips, nor to hide the aloofness in your eyes.

Compared to the tedious social interactions that come with a prominent status, Junming prefers to remain hidden in the crowd, unnoticed by anyone.

Therefore, daily disguise has become a necessity.

Compared to facing others' flattering faces every day, pretending for a little while each day seems especially acceptable.

Jun Ming put on his pajamas and opened the bathroom door.

He looked up and met Atal's gaze unexpectedly.

In just one moment, Jun Ming couldn't take his eyes off him.

Atal has never been so docile before.

The braids I had made in the morning were all undone because of my shower, and my beautiful silver hair was all smoothly spread across my right chest.

A daisy earring was visible on one side of the earring, while the other side was covered by hair.

The bathrobe was a little loose, revealing her beautiful and delicate collarbones and smooth, white chest.

Atar was still covered with Junming's blanket.

Her long, slender legs cast faint outlines on the blanket, drawing Jun Ming's full attention.

Jun Ming tried his best to control himself and avoid showing an expression that was inappropriate for the current atmosphere.

After stabilizing his voice, Jun Ming said casually:

"Atal, wait a minute, I'm going downstairs to get something."

After saying that, Jun Ming left the room.

Atal breathed a sigh of relief. Junming didn't pursue the fact that he had crawled into Junming's bed without Junming's permission, which meant that Junming had tacitly approved of his behavior.

Atal was somewhat happy.

Junming went to the kitchen, gulped down a mouthful of ice water to calm himself down, and then took the midnight snack that Dundun had prepared to the bedroom.

Before leaving, he told Dun Dun not to go upstairs and disturb him.

I have a feeling something's going to happen tonight.

Give Dun Dun some instructions in advance, so as to be prepared for any eventuality.

Jun Ming carried the midnight snack and walked briskly back to his bedroom.

I opened the door and placed the tray on the bedside table.

He rolled onto the bed, but instead of getting under the covers, he lay on top of them.

"Atar, would you like something to eat? You didn't eat enough tonight, you'll be hungry."

Seeing that Jun Ming asked the question with a natural expression, Atal did not refuse, "Just a little bit is fine."

Junming didn't insist and gave Atar a piece of cut fruit.

Atal reached out and took the fork, holding it to his lips and chewing it bit by bit.

Taking advantage of this moment, Jun Ming released his spiritual power and wrapped it around Atar's arm.

"let me see."

Atar ate slowly while opening his mental sea.

Jun Ming entered smoothly.

Atal's mental state was already in a very good state.

In the fields of daisies, newly sprouted branches stand tall.

Lush and verdant, arranged in a staggered yet orderly fashion.

The sunlight was warm, shining through clouds of various shapes and onto the stream, creating dappled light.

The continuous snow-capped mountains have taken shape, but the snow-covered peaks do not produce fields of daisies; instead, they are covered with cedar branches.

Undeterred by the bitter cold, it stands proudly.

Jun Ming controlled his mental power and scanned every corner of Atar's entire mental sea, but found no "garbage" that could harm his health.

Just as he was about to withdraw, Atar's spiritual power emerged from all directions, entwining with Jun Ming's spiritual power, seemingly inviting Jun Ming's spiritual power to dance with it.

Jun Ming naturally wouldn't refuse.

The two streams of spiritual energy each separated themselves, refining themselves into countless tiny streams of spiritual energy.

They chased and played with each other, eventually merging together and becoming entangled.

Jun Ming felt a continuous stream of power flowing back from his spiritual energy.

After Atal's spiritual sea became healthier, the degree to which it could feed back into Junming's spiritual power also became deeper and deeper.

Jun Ming's mental strength has recovered to its former level. He can even sense that the part of his mental strength that was missing due to congenital deficiency is being replenished little by little.

After a while of entanglement, Jun Ming finally managed to withdraw his mental energy from Atar's mental sea, but this time was different.

Along with Jun Ming's spiritual power came Atar's spiritual power, which followed closely behind Jun Ming's spiritual power, seemingly reluctant to let go.

"A mighty ruler."

Just as Jun Ming was about to jokingly ask Atal to control his mental power, he heard Atal calling him from the side.

"Can I ask you for a favor?"
