Chapter 349: King
Hearing Xia Wanyuan’s words, Jun Shiling looked up with a smile in his eyes. “You only think I’m good now?”
“No.” Xia Wanyuan shook her head honestly. “I used to think that you were pretty good, but now I feel that you’re better than I thought.”
Xia Wanyuan was telling the truth. In fact, many of her little habits were unknown even to her younger siblings who had lived together for many years.
However, she had only lived with Jun Shiling for two months, but Jun Shiling seemed to know everything about her. Not only did he arrange everything appropriately, but he also pampered her every moment.
She used to be the princess of a country and enjoyed all the glory and love.
She was also once the commander of the three armies, receiving the embrace of thousands of troops.
She was once the Eldest Princess who listened to the government and bowed to the world.
However, Jun Shiling’s care and love were different from others.
Xia Wanyuan was a person who rarely praised others and never exaggerated. Hence, when she praised someone, it made people especially happy.
]Jun Shiling smiled gently and leaned towards Xia Wanyuan.
This time, Xia Wanyuan did not stop him. The two of them leaned against each other and exchanged a long and gentle kiss.
“You’re good too.” Jun Shiling took half a step back and placed the bowl and chopsticks back in Xia Wanyuan’s hand. “Eat quickly. It’s going to get cold later.”
“Mm.” Xia Wanyuan nodded and continued eating.
Xiao Bao finally finished all his homework and was washed clean by the nanny. When he ran in, he saw Xia Wanyuan lying in Jun Shiling’s arms.
“Daddy, you’re hugging Mommy secretly again!” Xiao Bao had just taken a shower, and his face was as red as a fresh little apple. A bunch of little hair stood on his head.
“It’s time for you to sleep.” Jun Shiling ignored Xiao Bao’s accusing gaze.
“Hmph!” Xiao Bao climbed up from the end of the bed and carefully avoided Xia Wanyuan’s injured leg, then nestled between Xia Wanyuan and Jun Shiling.
Jun Shiling: …
Because Xia Wanyuan had a leg injury, Jun Shiling didn’t want Xiao Bao to sleep with her. He was afraid that Xiao Bao would kick her wound when he slept at night.
“Daddy, can’t you sleep in the middle? I promise I’ll sleep obediently. I’m afraid of the little monster. I want to sleep with Daddy and Mommy!!” Xiao Bao suggested a genius idea.
Jun Shiling looked at Xia Wanyuan, then at Xiao Bao, whose eyes were filled with longing. In the end, he agreed.
The light gradually dimmed, and Xiao Bao curled up on Jun Shiling’s left. His sleep quality was good, so he fell into a deep sleep the moment he touched the pillow, the smell of milk lingering.
Xia Wanyuan hugged Jun Shiling’s arm and was not sleepy for a moment. Her fingers unconsciously stroked Jun Shiling’s arm.
It was only when Jun Shiling’s arm tightened that he finally could not help but turn around and grab Xia Wanyuan’s hand. “Did you do it on purpose?”
Xia Wanyuan smiled. “On purpose?”
“If you didn’t have a leg injury now” Worried that he would wake Xiao Bao up, Jun Shiling lowered his voice. He was only halfway through his sentence, but both of them knew what he was going to say next.
Xia Wanyuan stopped talking. Without looking, Jun Shiling knew that Xia Wanyuan must be blushing again.
Jun Shiling snorted lightly. She always flirted with him recklessly and was not responsible after teasing him.
“I’m tired. Goodnight.” Xia Wanyuan yawned and leaned on Jun Shiling’s shoulder. Jun Shiling had no choice but to let go of Xia Wanyuan’s hand.
Xiao Bao and Xia Wanyuan leaned on Jun Shiling. There was an indescribable satisfaction in Jun Shiling’s heart. Soon, he fell asleep, and a beautiful dream enveloped the family hugging on the bed.

“King, our laboratory has been removed.”
In the City That Never Sleeps, Jayce reported the situation to the man in the seat fearfully.
“Not bad.” A lazy voice sounded.
Jayce immediately knelt on the ground. He was considered the second-in-command, but he had always been treading on thin ice.
Jayce’s first impression of the man on the high seat was that he was weak. His second impression was that he was clean and elegant. However, after he saw his boss skin Old K alive, he did not dare to speak loudly in front of this man anymore.
Yes, Old K, who had a notorious reputation back then, was still the Old K with the highest bounty on the wanted website. In fact, he had died ten years ago, at the hands of the child he had raised himself.
The little boy who had been gentle since he was young and was so elegant that he did not seem like he belonged in this world had killed someone on Old K’s 50th birthday in public.
And those who were supposed to protect Old K had unknowingly fallen for this child.
This change that should have shocked the entire underground kingdom was actually smooth without any obstruction. The outsiders didn’t even know that Old K was already dead.
The outsiders still called this new commander Old K, while Jayce and the rest called him King.
“Since the laboratory is gone, what’s the point of leaving you around?” As if he did not care that Jayce was an old man who had followed him for ten years, there was no fluctuation in the man’s tone.
“King, listen to me. This time, it’s not just Continent F’s alliance. If it was just them, we would have transferred the laboratory long ago. This time, there’s also the movement of Zeus.”
Speaking of which, it was strange. This legendary Zeus had disappeared from the world for four years. They had searched for so long but had yet to find any news of him. This time, this person actually sacrificed himself in Continent F.
“Zeus?” Only then did the man’s tone change. There was even a hint of a cold smile.
“Yes, on the night of the 27th, the Hurricane that Zeus rode passed through many countries and entered China,” Jayce replied respectfully.
“It’s China again. This China is really filled with crouching tigers and hidden dragons. Alright, keep your life for now. Go and investigate Xia Wanyuan.”
A beautiful face suddenly appeared on the screen. Jayce was stunned.
“Are you investigating this woman?” Jayce couldn’t help but ask. ‘Did King put in the wrong photo?’
“Mm,” the lazy voice replied.
Jayce’s heart trembled. What kind of identity could make King personally order an investigation?
Could she be a spy who had infiltrated the higher-ups of the magnesium country? Or was she some unknown drug lord? Or was she a political figure?
Oh my, it was this person. She is too good-looking, especially her snow-white eyes that looked straight into one’s heart.
“Okay.” Jayce received the order and went to gather all kinds of people.
However, after he informed almost all the secret agents in the world, he realized that information about this person could be seen everywhere on the Internet.
An entertainment industry celebrity??
Jayce was a little confused, but when he wanted to investigate further, he realized that Xia Wanyuan’s whereabouts in the past few years had been blank outside of public events.
