Chapter 214 Sleep with me
A few moments later, Ivy entered the dining hall, followed by a group of maids, each one carefully balancing trays of delicious food.
"Dinner is here, sorry for the little delay, I had to prepare multiple dishes. I hope I didn't keep you all waiting," Ivy apologized as she arranged the food on the table.
"It's fine, Ivy, you worry too much..." Madam Layla reassured her with a warm smile.
The maids swiftly followed suit, filling the dining table with a splendid array of dishes. After a polite bow to Madam Layla, they quietly exited the hall.
The sight of this culinary feast was a delight for Xi Meili. Her mouth watered, and she had to muster some restraint to keep from diving headfirst into the array of tantalizing dishes.
"Ahhh... What a delicious aroma coming from the foods, each of them must be super delicious... Oh, I can't wait to feast on them!" Xi Meili couldn't help but express her excitement in a hushed voice. Her eyes sparkled like stars in the night sky, reflecting her eagerness.
"Hehe... You don't need to hold yourself back if you're so eager to taste them..." Anna, with a knowing smile, encouraged Xi Meili. She was well aware of Xi Meili's passion for good food, and her impressive capacity to enjoy it.
"Really?!" Xi Meili's eyes widened in delight.
"Of course, you can," Anna confirmed with a smile.
Without a moment's hesitation, Xi Meili began to indulge in the delectable spread.
"Wow! This fish soup is incredibly delicious, and a little spicy too..." Xi Meili couldn't contain her excitement as she savored the soup prepared by Ivy.
Madam Layla observed Xi Meili with a gentle smile, shaking her head slightly. She couldn't help but wonder about the origins of this girl with such a voracious appetite. She then addressed the table with a smile.
"Before the food gets cold, let's dig in, shall we?"
Yuan and his wives eagerly dug into the delicious meal, with Yuan and Emma displaying an impressive capacity for food. They seemed to devour plate after plate as if their stomachs were bottomless pits.
'Damn! Whatever Ivy makes turns out really delicious... I'll miss this cooking a lot when we leave this village and continue our journey,' Yuan thought to himself as he continued to enjoy the meal.
The Monroe family had grown accustomed to witnessing Yuan and some of his wives' massive appetites, and it no longer surprised them.
After a while, Yuan and his wives began to feel full and gradually stopped eating, except for Xi Meili, who was still going strong. This was no surprise given Xi Meili's dragon heritage, known for both their enormous appetite and immense strength.
A few moments later, even Xi Meili was done eating, and her stomach had indeed taken on a slightly rounder appearance, a testament to the substantial amount of food she'd consumed.
"Burp! Ahhh... That was delicious!" Xi Meili let out a satisfied burp, rubbing her hand over her stomach.
"Hehe~ Meili dear, it seems you've eaten much more than you should. Look at your stomach now, it's become slightly round. People might mistake you for being pregnant," Anna teased playfully, glancing at Xi Meili's rounded midsection.
Xi Meili fell silent after Anna's remark, her face turning beet red as she looked at her stomach.
"I also agree on this... Hehe~" Lily chimed in, chuckling as she joined in on the playful banter.
Sensing Xi Meili's embarrassment, Yuan stepped in. "Since everyone's finished eating, let's head to the living room and rest for a moment before going to bed."
"Agreed, let's have a chat. It's not good for our health to go to bed right after dinner," Madam Layla added, standing up and heading towards the exit.
Yuan and his wives followed suit, walking together to the living room for a pleasant conversation before retiring for the night.
A minute later, they arrived at the living room and settled onto the sofa.
Madam Layla looked at Yuan and spoke, "Yuan, tomorrow morning, I'll give you the reward I promised for successfully defeating the Lord of the Mountain and saving this village. I should've already given it to you, but with everything that's happened in the past few days, it nearly slipped my mind."
"Well, I don't blame you for that. I'm also responsible for the events that put your family at risk. And about the reward, I almost forgot about it too. If you hadn't brought it up, I might have completely forgotten," Yuan replied with a smile.
Because of how busy Yuan was with his wives, the reward for slaying the Lord of the Mountain and saving the village had slipped his mind. His wives also forgot about it, as a series of events unfolded after the Lord of the Mountain's demise.
First, it was the encounter with Henry Turner and his servant, followed by a confrontation with Henry's father, his butler, and a group of highly trained personal soldiers.
Today, it was the encounter with the officials from the kingdom who served under the king. Lastly, there were the two teachers from the Magic Academy.
After some casual conversation, Yuan turned to Madam Layla and said, "It's quite late now, we should probably head to bed."
"Now that you mention it, it is late. I have a lot of work to do tomorrow. Thanks for reminding me, Yuan," Madam Layla said, getting up from her seat.
"It's nothing, Madam Layla," Yuan smiled.
"Goodness! When will you start calling me Mother-in-law? How many times do I have to remind you?" Madam Layla said with a helpless smile.
"Well, I can't help it since I've gotten used to calling you that," Yuan replied, touching the back of his head with a grin.
"Is that so? I guess I can't convince you now to call me mother-in-law... Sigh!" Madam Layla sighed and smiled awkwardly at Yuan. She said, "I will head to my bed now since I have a lot of work to do tomorrow. You should head to your bed as well, I guess..."
"Sure..." Yuan nodded with a smile. Madam Layla left the living hall, and James followed suit.
Ava and Julie exchanged a look, and Julie said to Yuan, "We'll be heading to our bedroom. Good night, Yuan..."
Before the two of them could take a step forward, Yuan stopped them. "Wait, you two!"
"What is it, Yuan? Do you have something to say to us?" Both of them turned around, and Ava asked Yuan with a confused look on her face.
Yuan looked at them with a smile on his handsome face and said, "How about you two sleep with us tonight? There are quite a few things I haven't told you yet."
"Is it important for us?" Julie asked with a frown, curious about what Yuan wanted to tell them. n/(0Velb1n
'Oh my god! I can't believe Yuan is inviting us to sleep with him! Am I dreaming?!' Both Julie and Ava exclaimed inwardly, finding it hard to believe that Yuan had extended such an invitation.
"Very. It's very important for both of you to know before you truly become my women."
"Does Big Sis Rose already know about it?" Ava asked.
"Yes, she does. Before she truly became my woman, I told her everything. Since within a few days, we will leave this village and you two will also be joining us, I think it's best to tell you before continuing our journey."
Both Ava and Julie fell silent after hearing Yuan's words. They thought, 'Is Yuan going to tell us about the secret behind their strange prowess and ridiculous strength? Or is it something else? However, it will be amazing if we can also get as powerful as Yuan and his wives.'
Looking at Ava and Julie lost in thought, Yuan became a little confused and asked, "What are you two thinking so deeply about?"
Ava and Julie snapped out of their daze after hearing Yuan's voice. Ava shyly said, "It's nothing, we're just surprised that you suddenly invited us to sleep with you, that's all..."
"Is that so? Sounds reasonable enough..." Yuan smiled. He said, "So, are you two coming or not?"
"Yes..." Julie replied shyly, her face red. They exchanged another glance, both blushing considerably.
'Of course, we'll join. How can we miss such an opportunity?' Julie thought inwardly, a blush spreading across her face.
'Sleeping together with Yuan?! I wonder what kind of night it will be... Will we only be sleeping with him or something else...?' Ava began to wonder about the night ahead with Yuan. Her face turned rosy as she entertained various thoughts.
Yuan rose from the sofa, a mysterious smile gracing his face. He said to them, "Well, let's get going then. We have a lot to talk about once we enter my room."
"Gulp!" Ava and Julie gulped nervously upon seeing the enigmatic smile on Yuan's face.
"Fufufu~ Darling, you naughty boy, scaring the two ladies before bringing them to our room," Grace chuckled at Yuan, teasing him playfully.
"You two don't need to be nervous about it. If you're not comfortable, my dear won't force you... Come, let's head to our room now. Shall we?" Anna reassured Ava and Julie, noticing their nervousness. She extended a warm invitation to Yuan's bedroom.
Both Ava and Julie felt reassured after hearing Anna's gentle words. They nodded with a blush on their faces.
Yuan and his wives led the way to his bedroom, and Julie and Ava followed, their cheeks still tinged with pink. After a short walk, they arrived at the bedroom.
