Vol. 1 - Chapter 54 - Dead Meat!
After getting clothes from Luo Ruying, Meng Niu, Bai Yuan, and Qiang Se started working as servants.
First, they cleaned every corner of the house. Then they chopped firewood and prepared hot water. In short, they were very hard-working.
But compared to Qiang Se, Meng Niu and Bai Yuan were not good with their hands. Sometimes, they were so clumsy that they would damage things.
However, Luo Ruying did not take it to heart. She just told them to relax and take a break.
Meng Niu, Bai Yuan, and Qiang Se stood in the yard, looking at Luo Hongye squatting on the ground and making snowballs.
Ning Yechen had ordered them to play with Luo Hongye, but they did not know where to start playing with a child!
They had no problems taking lives, but Ning Yechen was putting them in a difficult position by asking them to play with a child.
“Qiang Se, think of something.” Bai Yuan sent a voice transmission.
The three of them had already accepted the new names Ning Yechen gave them.
“If I knew what to do, would I be still standing here doing nothing?” Qiang Se rolled her eyes at Bai Yuan and Meng Niu. These guys are useless!
Although Luo Hongye was still a little shy, her father had told her they were good people, so she mustered her courage, raised the snowball in her hand, and asked sweetly, “Big Brothers, Big Sister, do you want to make a snowman together?”
“Yes, yes, yes!”
Seeing Luo Hongye taking the initiative to speak to them, the three of them nodded earnestly.
It was the perfect opportunity for them to interact with Luo Hongye!
Let alone making a snowman, they were willing to dig a cesspool for her.
The moment Meng Niu and the other two agreed, a smile broke out on Luo Hongye's face. Just as she learned from Ning Yechen, she proceeded to make a snowman.
“Let me teach you. First, do this… then this… and this!”
The three of them knelt in front of Luo Hongye, making snowballs. Every now and then, they would clap and praise her.
“Wow! Miss, you’re amazing.”
“Awesome.”
“Miss, you’re simply brilliant.”
“You are way better than us!”
Ning Yechen, sitting beside Luo Ruying, was speechless.
It was clear they were ingratiating themselves with Luo Hongye.
They were flattering her, but she was too young to know better.
Since they were just trying to make Luo Hongye happy, he decided not to take it to heart.
Luo Ruying was leaning on her cheek with one hand, smiling while quietly watching Luo Hongye.
She was happy to see more people playing with her daughter.
As Luo Ruying watched, she detected a certain someone beside her getting closer and closer.
“What are you doing?” Luo Ruying glanced at Ning Yechen.
She assumed Ning Yechen would obediently go back, but unexpectedly, he came even closer and even leaned on her shoulder!
His actions startled Luo Ruying.
“I'm a little tired. Please let me borrow your shoulder,” said Ning Yechen, leaning on Luo Ruying’s shoulder with his eyes closed and a smile.
Although he was more than happy to spend time with his daughter, sometimes he wished to spend quality time with his wife.
Since Meng Niu and the other two were playing with Luo Hongye, it was a rare chance for Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying to spend time alone, so he naturally wanted to make good use of it.
After Luo Ruying calmed down, she rolled her eyes at Ning Yechen. “If you are tired, go inside to rest.”
“But I like being with you more,” Ning Yechen said unabashedly without opening his eyes.
His words instantly made Luo Ruying’s face turn red, and she stopped talking.
She secretly looked at Ning Yechen’s sleeping face.
Since he wanted to do this, she would leave him be.
Leaning on her shoulder to rest was no big deal.
The two of them sat quietly in front of the yard.
Inside the yard, three more snowmen appeared with the help of Meng Niu and the other two.
These three snowmen stood behind the first three snowmen.
Luo Hongye pointed at the newly made snowmen and smiled. “These snowmen are the three of you.”
When Meng Niu, Bai Yuan, and Qiang Se realized they were these snowmen, they were so moved they nearly burst into tears.
This meant Luo Hongye treated them as a part of the family!
Luo Hongye was so kind!
Qiang Se almost could not resist pulling Luo Hongye into her arms to hug her!
But the moment she recalled that Luo Hongye was the Demon Lord's daughter, reason stopped her.
After making the snowmen, Luo Hongye and the other three got into a snowball fight.
Luo Hongye was petite, so she was not very strong. The snowballs she made were not very firm and completely useless.
Most of the snowballs landed at the three’s feet. Sometimes, the snowballs fell apart before reaching them.
Even so, Luo Hongye was beside herself with joy playing.
Meng Niu and the other two also made snowballs to fight back.
However, they did not dare to really hit Luo Hongye with the snowballs.
No matter what, they would never dare to do so.
They deliberately threw the snowballs away from Luo Hongye, so they did not even come close to her.
They even acted sad for missing.
Meng Niu eventually got carried away. When he randomly threw a snowball, It hit Luo Hongye smack on her face.
Luo Hongye’s whole face was covered with snow.
Qiang Se’s, Bai Yuan’s, and Meng Niu’s eyes bulged.
The scene seemed to freeze, and there was only the sound of the wind.
Meng Niu was so scared that he covered his face, resembling the subject of the painting “The Scream”!
Inside, he felt as cold as winter.
Meng Niu turned his head stiffly to look at Qiang Se and Bai Yuan. The look on his face said it all: “Am I dead meat?“
Even though Meng Niu didn’t say anything, Qiang Se and Bai Yuan could read his mind and nodded in agreement.
“Uh-huh. You're dead meat!”
A look of despair instantly washed over Meng Niu’s face.
It was over.
Today might be the day he died.
Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying noticed the snow on Luo Hongye's face. They got up, went over to her, and wiped her face.
Unexpectedly, Luo Hongye did not cry. Instead, she was beaming.
Meng Niu’s snowball was not very hard, and he did not use much strength, so Luo Hongye did not feel any pain at all.
Seeing that Luo Hongye was fine, Ning Yechen had no intention of blaming Meng Niu.
Meng Niu did not know what Ning Yechen would do to him. In his heart, he kept wondering how he would disappear from this world.
After the snow on her face was wiped off, Luo Hongye pulled Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying and smiled. “Daddy, Mommy, let's play together~ It's the three of them against me now. Daddy and Mommy have to help me.”
“Sure thing.” Luo Ruying smiled dotingly.
Thus, a three versus three snowball fight commenced in the yard.
However, Meng Niu and the other two did not have the guts to fight back.
Regardless of whether it was Ning Yechen, Luo Ruying, or Luo Hongye, they did not dare to throw snowballs at them.
Before long, the three of them were buried in snowballs.
Rather than calling it a snowball fight, it was more like hitting moving targets.
