Is it a problem to have a harem in a stranger heroine?

Chapter 955: The house is not leaking, the rain is not all night, and it feels cold

Tick-tick-tick-

The rain kept falling and the atmosphere was a little anxious.

Bai Ye and his group of eight sat curled up on the corridor in the yard, looking up at the raindrops dripping from the eaves.

After a full half-minute of silence, Eriri, with a look of confusion and melancholy on her face, spoke:

"That's strange, why is it raining?"

"Didn't you hear the thunder?" Shiyu asked.

"I heard it, but didn't Bai Ye say that if it thunders, it won't snow, and if it snows, it won't thunder?"

Shiyu couldn't help but hold her forehead.

"I give up. Not only did you not complete the sentence, but you also misunderstood it. Not only did Xiaobai-kun say the second half, but it's raining now, not snowing."

Yinglili "..."

He wanted to retort that rain and snow were the same thing, but when the words came to his lips, he lost the energy to argue. He sighed, picked up the curry rice on the side, looked up at the sky and ate it in small bites, his eyes looking a little lost.

Everyone understood why she was in a bad mood.

The main reason why this little girl came to the mountain villa was to see the snow, but now that the snow has turned into rain, it would be strange if she was in a good mood.

Zhu Yin took out her phone and reported the temperature in real time:

"The temperature... 1°C to -1°C. Haha, does that mean it's rain, sleet, or snow all depends on the will of heaven... A-choo!"

Bai Ye's heart suddenly tightened.

Although the evacuation was timely, everyone got wet to some extent.

"Azuna, are you okay?"

Zhu Yin sniffed and waved her hand.

"In real life, you wouldn't catch a cold just by sneezing. Besides, in novels and comics, it's just a embellishment technique. How can you draw a few more pictures of a character to make him catch a cold? Readers will definitely point fingers and scold you."

Bai Ye touched her forehead worriedly, then held her hand tightly to make sure she was okay.

Zhu Yin also took the opportunity to whisper in his ear:

"Whether you're truly worried, or taking this opportunity to get intimate, or both, don't forget to treat Sayuri equally."

Before he could ask why he was doing the same to Sayuri, Akane predicted and replied:

"Sayuri is very strong, but she also gets worried and scared. You're the only boy here, understand?"

Bai Ye nodded quietly.

Seeing Bai Ye leave Zhu Yin and then attack Bing Tang, everyone immediately understood that everyone would have a share and would never be left out, and they all accepted the intimacy with peace of mind.

After touching Eriri's forehead, Bai Ye heard her complain again.

"I only came here to enjoy the snow when it rained. Doesn't even God like me?"

Looking at her pouting cherry lips that looked like they could hang a bottle of oil on them, Bai Ye chuckled and sat between her and Sayuri.

"I think God really likes Eriri~"

"Can this be called love?" Ying Lili pointed at Yu Tian and glanced sideways.

"It was supposed to be snowing, but God was kind and accidentally got too warm and melted the snow into rain."

As soon as these words were spoken, not only did Eriri burst out laughing, but everyone else did the same, their eyes showing surprise and at the same time a smile of relief.

"What a joke, it's not funny at all~(*^ω^*)~"

Bai Ye did not refute. Knowing that Eriri was a tsundere who said one thing and meant another, the answer was self-evident.

He turned to look at Sayuri, not forgetting what Zhu Yin had just said.

Even though Sayuri is not a concubine in the harem, she is the most important family member, and it is only right that she be given the same care as the concubines in the harem.

"Auntie, are your clothes okay? I saw you walking back and forth in the rain several times."

"It's okay, only the blanket got a little wet from the rain, but my clothes weren't wet."

After saying that, Sayuri lifted the blanket covering her lower body, allowing Bai Ye to see that her clothes were not wet. Her beautiful purple eyes, which were gleaming in the dark night, blinked, as if she was expecting something.

Bai Ye did not hesitate or explain. Just like he treated everyone before, he held Sayuri's head with one hand, forehead against forehead, and held Sayuri's soft hand with the other hand, closing his eyes and feeling her body temperature.

This smooth and straightforward scene was seen by others, which successfully added a degree of credibility to Bai Ye's clear conscience. Even such an intimate gesture as holding hands and touching foreheads was regarded by everyone as Bai Ye's legitimate concern for Xiao Bai.

If Bai Ye showed hesitation, they would have to think too much.

"Well... Auntie's temperature is fine."

"Mmmmm~"

Sayuri's breath smelled like orchid, spraying on Bai Ye's lips which were so close to her, making her feel especially warm in the cold winter night.

Eriri, who was closest to them, took in all the details. Although she knew that Bai Ye had no ulterior motives, she felt a little depressed and irritated for some reason.

"Bai Ye, why don't you let go? How long do you want to hold your mother?"

Bai Ye was a little speechless.

How can my actions be considered a hug?

Moreover, the time he spent with Sayuri was just over ten seconds, only half of everyone else's.

"This Eriri is really jealous..."

Having said that, Bai Ye still let go of Sayuri's hand, but did not get up and leave. He still sat between her and Eriri.

"Aunt, please cover me with this blanket. Don't cover yourself with the wet one."

Bai Ye's blanket is different from others'. Although they were all bought by Sayuri, others' blankets can barely cover two people, while Bai Ye's blanket is more than enough to cover three people.

"Uh-huh."

Bai Ye completely lifted the blanket, covering Sayuri's upper body and legs with one side, and covering Eriri's legs with the other side.

"Put your hands up high and add another blanket."

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" Ying Lili chewed the chicken wings, making meaningless sounds.

Bai Ye followed her gaze and understood what she meant.

The bonfire crackled and swayed in the wind and rain. The flame was nearly half the size and looked precarious, as if it could go out at any time.

The bonfire is the only source of heat right now. If the bonfire is extinguished by rain, the consequences can be imagined.

"The bonfire isn't as fragile as you think. It's just a little rain... it's a shame the firewood got soaked."

He only had time to pack a bag of firewood and bring it back, but fortunately the charcoal was not wet by the rain.

"Let's eat first. I think the rain will stop soon."

"Oh oh."

After a while of noise, the curry rice reached the perfect temperature. Everyone couldn't wait to eat it, and the next second they all gave thumbs up.

"Delicious, so delicious—"

"The spices I mix myself are definitely different from instant curry."

“The flavor is unique and fits the palate very well.”

"Mom, I want another bowl—!"

Not only did Ying Lili add more rice, but everyone ate a little more than usual. Some of them were hungry after the activities all afternoon, and some also thought that eating more would keep them warm.

Although the last reason sounds a bit chilling...

"By the way, do you feel it? Even though we're far from the campfire, we don't feel very cold."

After hearing Shiyu's words, everyone calmed down and felt it.

They were sitting on cushions with blankets wrapped around their legs and their backs against the balcony door. The bonfire was at least 2 meters away, so they couldn't feel much heat from the front, but they were all warm.

Everyone turned their eyes behind them.

"Is the fireplace…ready lit?"

Chapter 956: With a fireplace, it’s time to relax and do something relaxing and enjoyable

Perhaps it was because the curry rice was so delicious, the bonfire on a cold night was so charming, the sudden rain was so eye-catching, and so on, but after leaving the bonfire for a whole meal, everyone remembered that the fireplace was still burning in the house.

"How long has the fireplace been burning?" asked Eriri.

"It's been an hour." Xiaohui counted on her fingers.

"It's warm in just a short while. It's not so cold sitting here!" Bingtang said.

"I don't know. I've never used a fireplace before. Who still uses a fireplace in the city now? Have you heard of pollution fines?" Shiyu said.

"Senior, don't say it's useless. Do you want to go in and take a look?"

The girls were chatting away, while Akane and Sayuri were testing the temperature together.

"The floor temperature is fine, the wall temperature...at least it's not freezing cold. How are the pipes routed?"

"In terms of general direction, the air inlet is at the door, and there are vents in the bathroom and yard."

Bai Ye was much more direct and opened the door as soon as he got up.

"We'll have to take it out for a walk to find out if it's a mule or a horse. I'll go in and take a look. If I faint, remember to drag me out."

Xiaohui took out a strong rope.

"How about we tie Bai Yejun's waist and drag him out together if something happens."

"There's no need to be so exaggerated. We're not going to the grave..."

Bai Ye has 99% confidence in the reliability of the fireplace, and all his cautions are just to prevent any mistakes.

After opening the door, he rushed in two steps at a time with a flashlight and picked up the detector. As he expected, the number on the detector did not change, and the carbon monoxide in the room was not above the standard.

He waved to the seven heads leaning against the gate.

"It's okay, come in."

Seven people walked into the room quickly at the same time, and walked out at the same time after a few seconds.

It was simple, the room was too dark, the light from the fireplace could only illuminate a small area, and the girls were lucky enough to stumble across one another as they rushed in and out.

Ying Lili took a thermometer and tested it outside the door, then wandered around the house.

"It seems like it's only two or three degrees higher, not even 10 degrees Celsius..."

"Did you move the thermometer?" Shiyu was speechless. Just from the physical feeling, it was warmer inside the house than outside.

"After an hour, the fireplace should not be fully lit." Xiaohui analyzed based on her video experience.

Bingtang, Chuhai and Baiye added firewood and charcoal to the fireplace, and the room suddenly became brighter. The flickering flames created a beautiful reflection in the room.

"It's 7 o'clock now. Will the house be warm before midnight?"

"Absolutely no problem. Do you two want to stay and watch the fire? I'll go stay in the yard."

The fireplace had good fire protection measures, and the heat felt through the fireproof glass was not much more than sitting in the courtyard corridor. After weighing the pros and cons, they followed Bai Ye.

"Aye, what should we do now?"

"It's up to you. Do whatever you like. Just go back and check on the stove once in a while."

After the threat of the cold was lifted, Bai Ye felt like he had taken off the heavy burden from his shoulders and relaxed all over. He dragged a quilt over and spread it near the gate of the yard, then lay down and refused to move.

Sayuri left space for the two of them to pass through the courtyard door and sat in the corridor outside the house. After a while, she heard her excited call:

"Eri, the rain has stopped."

"Really?!" Eriri excitedly picked up the camera and went out of the yard.

Xiaohui and Zhuyin brought a rag and prepared to wipe the stool that they had not had time to bring back. Shiyu leaned against the door frame and browsed her phone in the light of the campfire.

"Senior~~" a playful voice sounded in my ears.

Bai Ye turned around and saw Chu Hai kneeling on all fours in front of him, and he could see the beautiful white scenery without any effort.

"Which is whiter, snowflakes or the sea?"

He couldn't figure out the problem for a moment, but the question was softer and warmer, so Bai Ye voted for Hai with both hands and feet.
