When they turn to the eats at the table, Evangeline’s expression remained unchanged, while Dexter’s face was the em as ever, though his left eye was bruised and the right corner of his mouth was red and swollen. The consequence of the kann was evident

Do you reall you were wrong” Evangeline asked.

Dexter nodded obeshently. “Yes”

you dare to do it again?” Evangeline continued.

Dexter nodded again, looking as obedient as ever. “Yes, I will.”

Evangeline’s face darkened.

A smile played on Dexter’s lips as he earnestly said, “Hard chocolate really does taste better than soft chocolate.”

Evangeline gritted her teeth and said, “If you like hard stuff so much, let me feed you some fists as hard as steel!” Dexter was pinned down and “beaten up” again.

A few minutes later, they sat back at the table.

Now, Dexter’s right eye was also bruised, and the right corner of his mouth was swollen as well. Both corners of his mouth were swollen equally, resulting in a perfectly symmetrical appearance.

Evangeline asked with a faint smile, “Still want to eat something as hard as steel?”

Dexter shook his head. “My mouth hurts too much to chew.”

Satisfied, Evangeline pushed the chocolate sauce in front of him. “Then have some more of the soft stuff. Oh, and here’s some cow brains. They’re soft too. Eat them all.”

Dexter looked at her innocently and said, “My hands hurt. Could you feed me?”

Evangeline smiled as she fed him a spoonful of chocolate sauce.

Dexter smiled as he ate it, completely unbothered.

From a young age, he had always had exceptional mental resilience.

After the meal, they sat at the door, gazing at the stars in the sky.

Away from the city, the night sky, with a sea of stars, was exceptionally beautiful, looking like a scene straight out of a fairy tale.

But there were many mosquitoes in the wild. Wesley and Scott were busy swatting them with electric fly swatters.

Chester moved a piano out and started playing a soothing, gentle melody.

Chad fanned Evangeline and Dexter from behind.

The four quietly raritel em their duties, ensuring their bestes could enjoy this beautiful moment.

Evangeline enjoyed the wene ko much that she got a bit lost in i After gazing at the sky for two or three hours, she finally unched and prepared to rest.

When she turned her head, the saw that Dexter had already fallen asleep in his chair.

Ahough he could be annoying when awake, always a bit too cheeky, he looked rather endearing and well–behaved when he was asleep.

Evangeline turned to Chad, who was fanning them, and whispered, “Carry Dexter back to his room. Let him sleep in bed.”

Chad replied. Tim sorry, Ms. Castillo, but I don’t dare carry Mr. Johnson. If he replaces out I carried him while he was asleep, he’ll get angry

Evangeline twitched her mouth. I’m asking you to carry him back to his room to rest, not to make a move on him.” Chad said, “Even so, I wouldn’t dare. Without his permission, I don’t dare to touch him.”

Evangeline said, “Then get Wesley to help you. You two carry him inside.”

Chad said, “We’d still have to touch Mr. Johnson. We don’t dare.

Evangeline was speechless.

Chad then said, “Ms. Castillo, why don’t you do a good deed and carry Mr. Johnson inside yourself? Sleeping in the chair is mcomfortable, and it could hurt his neck and back.”

Evangeline had no choice but to carry Dexter back to his room.

After laying him on the bed, she turned around to see Chad quickly bringing a basin of hot water.

Evangeline used the hot water to wipe Dexter’s face and hands, then tucked him in before heading to the next room.

Their rooms were very close, separated only by a screen in the middle. They could hear their voices when they turned over at midnight.

After returning to her room, Evangeline picked out a set of clothes, took a shower, and then went to bed.

The next day, she was woken up by Dexter again.

This time, instead of tickling her nose with her hair, he was tickling the soles of her feet,

Evangeline was annoyed and kicked at him.

Dexter deftly caught her ankle and chuckled. “The sun is already up. Time to get up.”

Evangeline pulled the covers over her head. “So what if the sun is up? It’s not like I have to go to work.”

རྗ་ འ༅ ་ རྗ

Dexter was momentarily taken aback. When they were kids and wandering the streets, sometimes he’d wake up early and try to wake her up, and she’d say the same thing.

But back then, she’d say that they didn’t have school, so why get up early?

Dexter collected himself and softly said, “Sleeping too long is bad for your health.”

Evangeline nonchalantly replied, “So what if it’s bad? I never planned on living a long life.”

Dexter said ominously, “If you don’t get up, I’m going to join you in bed.”

Evangeline remained under the covers, silent and still. She was betting that Dexter wouldn’t dare. But to her surprise, he lifted the covers, intending to lie down beside her.

Evangeline was instantly awake. She sat up from the bed and kicked him away. “You’re so annoying! You used to be a little tagalong, and now you’re just a little nuisance.”

Dexter corrected her. “I’m not little.”

Evangeline snorted coldly, “You’ll always be younger than me. If you’re so capable, why don’t you turn back time and be born before me?”

Dexter replied, “You are so childish. Get up. The air by the sea is nice. Let’s go jogging.”

Evangeline rolled over reluctantly. When she was about to wriggle out of bed, Dexter quickly caught her around the waist, hoisted her over his shoulder, and carried her to the bathroom.

She was speechless and thought, ‘My morning routine didn’t go quite perfectly today!

Dexter handed her a toothbrush and cup. “You freshen

up

first. Ill

get your clothes.”

When Evangeline finished freshening up, Dexter had already brought her clothes.

She changed her clothes. Then they went for a jog along the beach for an hour.

After that, they sat cross–legged by the sea, meditating, and afterward, they stretched a bit.

When they were wandering as children, they once met an old man who taught them some breathing techniques and moves. He also guided them in morning exercises every day.

The old man only stayed in that place for six months before leaving, and they never saw him again.

But after the old man left, Evangeline, Dexter, and Naomi kept practicing every day as he had taught them.

They didn’t know what specific skills the old man had taught them, but after practicing, they all became quite proficient in combat, so they remained committed to their training.

After exercising, they returned to the wooden house, took a shower, changed clothes, and had breakfast. Then they rode the white tiger again to seek out the wealthy group for some fun.

Dexter was lively and full of energy while exercising, running even faster than her.

But as soon as they started hiking up the mountain, he appeared weak and as if he might collapse at any moment. Evangeline suspected he was faking it, but when she checked his pulse, it showed that his health was indeed poor. After they walked for a short while, his heart rate shot up to 170. If he kept going, his heart might just burst.

She had no choice but to pull him onto the white tiger and ride up the mountain with him.

When they reached yesterday’s spot, the wealthy people and their families were already there.

Dexter chuckled and said, “Look at them. They all
