"Meluko?"

Zhou Yuan noticed her slightly heaving chest and slightly pale face, and his tone softened immediately.

"You should get some good rest these few days. Last night's contract ceremony was too exhausting even for you."

He turned to Patchouli and smiled apologetically:

"M'Q, let's talk about that another day. I'm going to take Meruko back home to rest first."

As he spoke, he naturally picked up Melyuchina and walked towards the East Tower in the surprised eyes of everyone.

In the corridor, Zhou Yuan suddenly remembered something and lowered his head and asked:

"Come to think of it...Meluko, you just ran out like that. Miyu is not home alone right now, right?"

----------

Remilia tilted her head and looked at the little girl in Zhou Yuan's arms, a trace of confusion flashed in her blood-red eyes:

"Uh... Is this your daughter? She doesn't look very similar..."

"What a joke!"

Melyuchina seemed to be very annoyed by her words, and her golden pupils narrowed dangerously:

"Even if Xiao Yuan and I really want to have offspring, it can't be such a weak guy!"

She subconsciously straightened her back, her long silver hair moving in the wind.

"Oh... okay."

Remlia was startled by the sudden momentum and took a step back, the hem of her Gothic skirt swaying slightly.

She elegantly lifted her hair from her temples and turned to Zhou Yuan:

"So, my contractor, who is this lovely little guest...?"

"This is Miyu."

Zhou Yuan gently adjusted his holding position to make the little girl in his arms more comfortable.

"I met her on the street a few days ago. I saw she was homeless, so I brought her back."

He smiled helplessly, but his eyes were full of pampering.

"Now that we've moved to the Scarlet Devil Mansion, we can't just leave her alone in her old place, right?"

"Oh... Really..."

Remlia held her forehead and sighed softly, a faint blush appearing on her fair cheeks.

She secretly glanced at Zhou Yuan who was teasing Miyu, and quickly looked away.

"I've quickly made this place my home..."

She murmured softly, her fingertips unconsciously curling the hair at her temples.

"Should I say you're casual, or..."

The words reached his lips and he swallowed them back.

According to the rules of the Scarlet Devil Mansion, Zhou Yuan is now considered an official member.

But if this sentence is said, doesn't it mean that a wedding will be held?

'Wedding...wedding dress...ring...'

The image that appeared in her mind made Remlia's ears turn red instantly. She hurriedly raised her wrist to cover half of her face, revealing even her pointed fangs.

'No, no! I'm not ready to be a bride yet!'

"Miss? Are you okay?"

Sakuya handed over a cup of black tea at the right time, with a knowing smile in her eyes.

"No, it's nothing!"

Remlia took the teacup, but because of her shaking hands, she spilled a few drops.

"I just think today's tea is... too hot!"

"And! You..."

Remlia suddenly raised her voice, but then stopped abruptly.

She swung her skirt impatiently, and when she turned around, the ends of her hair drew a graceful arc in the air.

"Whatever you want! Take that little girl and find a room to stay in! There are plenty of empty rooms in the Scarlet Devil Mansion anyway!"

Before she finished speaking, she had already walked quickly into the depths of the corridor, leaving behind only a series of hurried footsteps and faint mutterings:

"Really... Each and every one of them is so worrying..."

Zhou Yuan stood there, scratching his head in confusion.

Miyu poked her little head out from his arms, blinked her big eyes and asked:

"That sister...is she angry?"

"I think should not be?"

Zhou Yuan answered uncertainly, but his eyes involuntarily followed the direction where Remlia left.

He felt that the vampire lady's reaction just now seemed to have a deeper meaning...

--------------

Zhou Yuan suddenly seemed to remember something and looked down at Miyu in his arms:

"By the way, Miyu, I remember you like reading, right?"

In his mind, he imagined the little girl always holding various books and reading attentively at his home.

Miyu's eyes lit up instantly, and her long lavender hair swayed slightly as she nodded:

"Yeah! I love it the most!"

"Then I'll take you to a nice place."

Zhou Yuan blinked mysteriously and adjusted his holding position.

"Miss Patchouli's library has many interesting magic books."

He had just taken a step when he suddenly felt his sleeve being gently pulled.

Miyu raised her little face and asked anxiously:

"Um... won't it bother others?"

"Do not worry."

Zhou Yuan smiled and rubbed her hair.

"Although Patchouli may seem a little standoffish, she actually loves children who love to read."

When turning the corner of the corridor, Zhou Yuan suddenly stopped.

Melyuchina was leaning against the wall with her arms folded, and the dragon's tail was beating the ground intermittently.

"Going to the library?"

She raised her eyebrows and asked, her golden pupils scanning back and forth between the two of them.

"That's perfect. I'm going to check some information too."

....................................

Melusina snatched the gold-covered "True Record of the Reproduction of Dragons and Alien Races" and fled in panic under Patchouli's mischievous gaze, her long silver hair almost leaving a shadow.

Only after the dragon girl's figure disappeared at the end of the corridor did Patchouli retract her gaze, and her amethyst-like eyes turned to the little girl hiding behind Zhou Yuan's legs.

"So... you want her to learn magic?"

The witch's voice was somewhat thoughtful.

Zhou Yuan smiled and ruffled Miyu's hair:

"Yes."

He gently pushed the little girl's back.

"Come, say hello to Sister Patchouli."

Miyu timidly stuck out half of her head, her long black hair swaying slightly with her movements.

The moment their eyes met, Patchouli's pupils suddenly contracted——

She clearly saw that this seemingly ordinary human girl had some strange magical circuits flowing in her body.

"interesting..."

The witch squatted down, and the star and moon pattern on her nightgown spread out on the ground.

"Little cutie, can you tell me..."

A faint magical glow appeared at her fingertips.

"What kind of magic story do you like best?"

Miyu's eyes suddenly lit up, and she took a small step forward as if she had found a soulmate.

Zhou Yuan stood aside, the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised——

It seems that bringing Miyu to the library this time was the right decision.

Chapter 20: Too~Bu~Not going to work today~

Before the halo of the portal completely dissipated, Zhou Yuan heard a soft cry with a hint of surprise.

He looked in the direction of the sound and saw a pink-haired girl standing in the middle of a bluestone-paved courtyard.

The morning breeze blew by, and the golden hairpin in her hair and her twin ponytails swayed gently, emitting a fine luster under the morning sun.

The most eye-catching thing is the amethyst gem embedded in the forehead——

At this moment, it flickered with her breathing, as if echoing some rhythm of heaven and earth.

The girl's attire is both elegant and chic:

On the dress with purple cloud pattern as the main color, star maps and hexagrams are faintly visible;

The gilded astrological disk on his chest slowly rotated, and the ancient runes engraved on it flickered.

When her gaze fell on him, her legs wrapped in white pantyhose crossed slightly, and the ruffled decorations trembled slightly, like the fluttering wings of a butterfly.

(I lick!)

"You are the administrator, right?"

His voice was as clear as a mountain stream, yet it carried a dignity that should not be taken lightly.

As she stepped forward, her black boots made a crisp sound on the bluestone slabs, but the jade bell hanging around her waist strangely did not make any sound at all.

Zhou Yuan finally came back to his senses from his amazement and quickly bowed:

"It is I. You must be Master Fu Xuan of the Taibusi?"

The girl's lips curled slightly, and her fingertips swept across the astrolabe, bringing up a string of starlight:

"It's me."

The amber eyes looked him up and down, and suddenly a hint of surprise flashed across their eyes:

"I didn't expect the administrator to be younger than I thought..."

"It just so happens that today, the heavens are clear and I happen to have some free time."

Fu Xuan tapped the astrology plate with his fingertips, and a flash of light appeared as the star tracks flowed.

"How about I take you on a tour of the Luofu Immortal Boat?"
