If Silver Wolf wasn’t kept happy, everyone in the Arcade would get crushed in their games.
Silver Wolf was a natural genius; when she first started learning, the guys here could still rely on their experience to suppress her.
But within a few days, they’d be getting beaten into the ground.
They were miserable!
“Rest assured, your Uncle Yun here will definitely handle it.”
Stark smiled without saying anything more, quietly made his way to their little nest, and knocked on the door.
“Are you asleep?”
No response.
On the bed, Silver Wolf trembled, curling herself up entirely inside the blanket.
*Ahhh*, what had to come was coming.
Now there was nowhere to run…
Would Stark pin her to the bed and spank her!?
Just like he did with Willis.
Blushing, unsure if she was feeling anticipation or worry, she sniffled and used her pillow to wipe away the little pearls falling from her eyes.
*Creak*…
The door opened, and the footsteps drew closer until they stopped at the bedside.
Silence followed.
Silver Wolf clenched her hands, her heart feeling like it was about to jump out of her throat.
“Are you really asleep?”
“…”
Stark stood by the bed without turning on the light.
He wasn’t blind; looking at the tightly gripped blanket, he knew the person inside wasn’t asleep.
But she was pretending to be.
What was he supposed to do about that?
He took off his shoes and sat beside Silver Wolf as usual.
Silver Wolf trembled again, seeming startled, and let out a soft whimper.
She was impossibly cute.
Stark pretended not to hear and began telling a bedtime story: “Picking up from where we left off, Xiao Huohuo stepped onto the Yunlan Sect, the three-year agreement…”
“…”
A long while passed.
Only when the person on the bed stopped being so tense did Stark’s voice gradually trail off, leaving the basement enveloped in darkness.
At some point…
a small hand quietly grabbed him.
Stark smiled and pulled down the blanket covering Silver Wolf’s face.
Her eyes were still red, but the tears had already dried…
leaving only a few tear tracks behind.
He couldn’t resist poking Silver Wolf’s little face.
She had been fed quite well recently, and her cheeks had developed a bit of baby fat.
Kissing her once…
wouldn’t hurt, right?
But who knew if the Wolf Cub was still jealous?
If she threw a tantrum or got angry again, what then?
Stark decided to hold back.
But the more he looked at her, the more he liked her…
Her cold, adorable face, her red-rimmed eyes, and those long eyelashes that kept fluttering—surely the Wolf Cub wasn’t asleep right now, was she?
Her hand was gripping him tightly.
She didn’t want to let go.
Ah, she was truly like a fragrant, soft little cake.
Stark felt that if he didn’t leave, he would completely lose his composure and do something perverse.
There was simply no way to curb these feelings.
So, he turned his head, leaned down, and gently kissed Silver Wolf on the center of her forehead.
It was a fleeting touch.
“Good night, Wolfie.”
No more words were needed.
Silver Wolf’s little face flushed red inch by inch.
Her forehead was damp—something had pressed against it.
It was so hard to guess what it was!
Bad guy…
The corners of her eyes grew moist again.
Seeming to realize she was overheating and would definitely be found out, Silver Wolf let go of his hand and tremblingly turned over.
Asleep, do not disturb!
［Your favorability towards Stark has increased.］
［Current favorability: 50.］
“Ugh…”
Silver Wolf was about to be finished off by Stark and the game cartridge chasing her down.
*Don’t increase, don’t increase!* But this thing didn’t shift based on human subjective will.
Love arrived too quickly, like a tornado.
“Whew…”
Stark’s lips also curled up.
Who was it that acted all tsundere and ignored him, yet whose favorability kept secretly rising and had never dropped?
Daring to show the progress bar…
That little Wolf Cub, it was only a matter of time before he won her over.
“Wolfie, I love you.”
“…”
“Get some good rest.”
The night was still long.
Silver Wolf had gone to sleep a bit too early tonight, but at this moment, no matter what, she was too embarrassed to get back up.
Sleep…
and pretend nothing happened by tomorrow?
That was all she dared to think.
Stark left.
He still had to work on drawings for the proprietress tonight.
As for Silver Wolf, he’d figure it out eventually if he took it slow.
Silver Wolf didn’t want to talk…
he couldn’t force her, could he?
But Silver Wolf felt a bit melancholy now.
Why did he leave?
Where was he going?
Couldn’t he just stay and sleep with her?
She certainly knew her request was a bit excessive.
But…
the bad guy Stark had just stolen a kiss from her.
Did she allow that?
He ran off right after kissing her, leaving her all alone.
He was bad.
［Three thoughts have emerged in your mind.］
No…
they didn’t emerge!
Even with her eyes closed, it didn’t stop the game cartridge’s mission panel from popping up.
Silver Wolf knew it was looking to cause trouble again, but…
tonight, she was actually feeling a bit of anticipation.
After all, it was all the mission’s fault.
Some things didn’t represent her own thoughts; she just purely wanted to complete the mission, nothing more.
［1.
Chase after him and drag that bastard old man back.
There’s no such cheap deal!
Make him apologize by washing your underwear and socks for a month!］
That won’t do…
At most, she’d let Stark wash her socks.
Silver Wolf suddenly opened her eyes, her face flushed red.
*Don’t mess around!* Unfortunately, the game cartridge clearly wasn’t going to heed her request.
［2.
You’re very curious about what Stark is actually doing at night, aren’t you?
Wait until later and sneak out to follow him; seeing is believing.
(Note: This option is a series mission; you can only obtain the reward upon completing the final option.)］
［3.
Don’t allow Stark to go find anyone else.
Daddy is yours alone.
At night, he can only hold you while sleeping.
You love Daddy the most!
Daddy’s eyes are only allowed to see you!］
Bullsh—…
Silver Wolf’s chest heaved violently, and she nearly cursed out loud.
She absolutely never thought that; it was pure slander, it was defamation!
“I didn’t…”
No one cared.
Perhaps the God of Fun smiled at this.
［Mission Reward: Lv increased by 1, Smart Core Chip * 1 (That’s right, it’s the one you need recently).］
The power core and the imaginary-level battery were already in hand.
All that was missing was the chip…
Of course, the strength of the basic materials wasn’t enough either, but she could just build one to use for now.
Silver Wolf knew that with her current level, it would likely be difficult to manufacture the smart helper she envisioned.
Something that could act as both a weapon and a hacker.
But wasn’t there Stark?
That guy seemed to know a lot.
Even if she was unwilling, Silver Wolf had to admit that Stark completely crushed her in terms of knowledge reserves.
So…
knowing so many things, how did he end up in his current situation?
She couldn’t understand it.
Without a doubt.
Silver Wolf chose option two again.
Her heart grew anxious once more.
What if she really caught the two of them…
doing something?
She couldn’t worry about that much.
She was truly curious.
Compared to waiting, Wolf Lord had to take the initiative.
Idiot Stark couldn’t possibly be doing that, doing that…
every night!
*Ugh!*
The Wolf Cub blushed.
She didn’t believe it.
Although those two had indeed been exchanging glances recently, the feeling she got when they were in front of her was still very cold.
Was it all just an act for her to see?
She peeked her head out of the room sneakily, but there were still quite a few people outside.
Wait a little longer…
Maybe it’s not a big deal now… maybe it will be later.
“And If you’re enjoying it, drop a Power Stone for me!”
