27 Chapter 027 - You Can't Sleep in My Bed

It was late afternoon by the time Ba Yue has gotten home. She went straight to her bedroom and starts refining some more pills until dinnertime.

Ba Yue has just reached the dining room when she noticed Mak Lok Son is also here. He was setting up the table with food while he talks to Master Ba.

"Lok Son, you are here. What brings you over today?" asked Ba Yue with a nice tone in her voice. She's very happy that she made money today so everything and everyone she sees is nice and all good.

"Little Yue, you told me I can come over before, remember? And I also want you to eat the yummy food that I made for you. I cooked steam chicken wrap with lotus leaf, Hot and spicy beef with tofu, sweet and sour fried fish, and a lot more. I know you like those, hurry and eat up!"

"Ah Yue, Lok Son came over not too long after you come home today. Since you locked yourself up in your room doing something, he didn't want to bother you. He went straight to the kitchen with his guard and starts cooking for you, "said Master Ba.

"I didn't know you were coming over today. But thank you for cooking so much food here! Come on, let's all eat before it gets cold." Ba Yue pick up her chopstick to pick a piece of chicken and placed into Lok Son's bowl and gave him a smile. She then also pick up another piece of chicken and placed in her father's bowl and then she starts eating.

Seeing Ba Yue placed food in his bowl for the first time and gave him a smile, Mak Lok Son can't help but have a big smile on his face. He feels that all the hard work he puts into cooking for Ba Yue is so worth it.

After dinner, Ba Yue went to the library to read some more books regarding how to refine mid-grade pills. She has already read it before, but want to read it again to make sure she's not missing anything.

By the time she finished reading the book, it's already very late at night. She went back to the room, but what surprised her was that there was light in her room. She walked into the room and went toward her bed and noticed someone is sleeping in her bed!

"WHO ARE YOU! AND WHY ARE YOU IN MY BED!" said Ba Yue in a slightly loud and cold voice. She didn't want to say it too loud to wake up others since it's very late now.

The person sleeping on her bed was facing the wall, so Ba Yue wasn't able to see who that person is. The person sleeping on her bed suddenly wakes up from hearing her voice. It was Mak Lok Son and he is half awakened by Ba Yue's voice.

"Little Yue, I didn't see you after dinner and my future father in law said that you are in the library reading books. He said I can stay and wait for you. I thought I can warm up the bed for you since it's cold tonight, that way you won't feel cold when you get into your bed. But I waited a long time and you're still not back yet, so I fell asleep."

"Lok Son, it's not right for you to sleep in an unmarried girl's bed. Do not do that again!"

"Little Yue, you are my future bride, so it's okay."

"No, it's not okay! Even if we are married, you still cannot sleep in my bed without my permission."

"Why not? I was told that husband and wife are supposed to sleep together in the same bed after getting married," asked Lok Son with a big question mark on top of his head.

"Who told you that? Don't listen to other people, only listen to me. Otherwise, I'll kick you out and won't let you come here again."

"Okay, Little Yue. I will only listen to you."

"That's a good boy. Now it's late, go to the guest room to sleep. I'll see you in the morning, good night."

Mak Lok Son stood there and didn't move. He looked at Ba Yue with his eyes that is saying he didn't want to leave.

"Why are you not leaving?

"ah.....Little Yue, the guest room's bed is cold. And your bed is warm, can I stay in your bed? You said I need to ask for your permission, can I get your permission?"

"Fine, you can stay. I'll sleep in the guest room tonight instead."

Without saying any more or give Lok Son a chance to speak, she walked out of her own bedroom and headed toward the guest room to sleep.

"That's not what I mean, Little Yue." Mak Lok Son had a little disappointment in his eyes.

"You got to stop taking advantage of my young master," says Little Red as he walks into Ba Yue's bedroom.

Mak Lok Son looked at Little Red as he walks into the room. He's trying to see what is different about him, he feels that recently Ba Yue and Little Red's relationship is a bit different.

"I'm not taking advantage of her, she is my future bride. I just want to further our relationship. And what is going on with you and my Little Yue? I can feel that you two are getting a lot closer recently."

"I'm not going to lie to you since you will know it sooner or later. Young Master and I have formed a contract already, she also knows I can talk in human language."

Suddenly, Mak Lok Son looked at Littel Red with cold and dangerous eyes.

"Did you tell her about me?" asked Lok Son.

"No, I have promised you before I wouldn't tell." Said Little Red in a calm tone.

"Did you initial the contract first or did she do it first?"

Little Red sweatdrops a little, he remembered that Mak Lok Son had warned him that he cannot force to form a contract with Ba Yue unless she agrees to it.

Well, technically…..he doesn't think it's really considered forcing it, right? He only bit her finger to get a few drops of blood to formed the contract and she didn't really refuse it. Of course, this is something he can't say to Mak Lok Son.

"Well…...actually, there was a "situation" and I had to form a contract with her. I didn't want to start speaking in front of her and let her know too much if we didn't have a master and beast contract formed, so....."

"Oh...really! Tell me about it. If the so-called "situation" is acceptable, then I'll consider not punishing you for ignoring my warning."

"I can't tell you about it, I won't betray my master even if you are going to do something to me. You are hiding your true self from my master, I can't trust you too much to tell you everything about my master. But one thing I can tell you is that my young master found out that she's originally from another world.

I have told you before that I can sense that she's from the same place as me. Other than this, I won't tell you any more. Not at least until you can show your true self to my master and have gotten her trust first."

"Very Good! I won't force you to tell me any more. If you would have told me right away, I would consider getting rid of you for Little Yue. She doesn't need anyone that's not loyal to her around." Said Mak Lok Son with his face looking a lot less scary than before.

"I'm going to sleep now, but I hope you can open up yourself to my master soon. I can tell you care about her, but if this drags on too long, I'm afraid she's going hate you for lying to her."

"I know, but I need to find the right timing to do that."

Little Red walked toward the end of Ba Yue's bed to sleep. There's a small basket with a blanket inside, it was placed there by Ba Yue for Little Red to use as his temporary bed.

The next morning, Ba Yue woke up very early to go outside for training as she usually does like before. She hasn't train much since the competition. When she left the residence, a shadow followed her out. The shadow was Gao Sing, ordered by Mak Lok Son to go follow Ba Yue to make sure she is safe.

Gao Sing is the guard that Mak Lok Son brought with him to the Ba residence and also the one that helps him cook in the kitchen. We now know that Gao Sing works for Mak Lok Son, so Mak Lok Son is the man with the mask!

Ba Yue trained like usual and comes back early before anyone wakes up. She washed up and then head toward the dining room for breakfast.

"Good Morning, Little Yue! Did you sleep well? I made breakfast for you, it's your favorite steam bun with meat filling, water crab congee, sticky rice stick, steamed egg custard, and a lot more!"

Ba Yue just start drooling when she heard what's for breakfast.

"How did you know those were my favorite food for breakfast?"

"I asked my future father in law yesterday and he told me all your favorite food. Come on, let's start eating before it gets cold."

"Lok Son worked very hard to make all this food. Let's enjoy it, ah Yue. We can't waste Lok Son's hard work, plus all the food he made so far is very good!" Said Master Ba as he first starts to pick up his chopsticks to eat.

"Lok Son, your food is very good and I really like eating it. But don't you have anything else to do?" Says Ba Yue as her right hand is reaching out for the sticky rice stick. After taking a bite of it, she has the word satisfy all over her face.

Seeing her satisfied face after eating his food, he's also satisfied. There's a saying that said, "to tie down a man, you will first need to tie down his stomach." What it means is that, use food to make it so that the man can't leave you. But instead of using food to tie down a down man, Mak Lok Son is using food to tie down his Little Yue!"

"Little Yue, I don't have anything else do so. My only job right now is to take care of you."

Ba Yue's too busy stuffing her face with the yummy food in front of her to hear what Lok Son just say. Even though the chefs at Ba residence cooks very delicious food already, but Lok Son food is even better! She can't seem to get enough of it.

"Lok Son, you will be a wonderful son in law. I'm happy my daughter will be marrying you." Says Master Ba, also with his mouth full. Everyone in the Ba residence is a food lover!

After breakfast, Mak Lok Son said that it was time for him to return home for now. He leaves with his guard, and they left with his horse carriage. Mak Lok Son sat inside the horse carriage, while his guard, Gao Sing is driving the horse carriage.

"Master, are we going back to the palace right now?"

"No, go to our headquarters." Said Mak Lok Son, as he puts on a silver mask on his face. His hair then starts to change color, it was originally black and it's now turning to silver-white. His eyes also changed from black to a very pretty blue color. He is like a completely different person now, his innocent eyes and smile are no more. What's left is coldness seen in his eyes and an expressionless face.

If Ba Yue were to see him now, she'll probably not recognize him as Mak Lok Son. But she will probably remember him as the man with the mask that gave her medicated cream for her wound when she was training in the Black Forest!

An hour later, the horse carriage has arrived at a hidden place just outside of the town. It is a very big mansion surrounded by the woods. At the front door, there are 2 men dressed in black with a logo of an eagle on their arm sleeves.
