Her sister's expression softened, her playful defiance replaced with a look of gentle assurance. "Don't worry, Sister. I'll be there if he needs me, and no one will get close to him."
With a final, reassuring glance, Xu Qianghua's parents stepped into the portal, the mother being the last to enter. She looked back at her twin one last time, nodding with a smile.
"Stay safe, and if anything happens... well, you know where to find us."
The twin sister returned her smile, her gaze warm with the same unspoken promise. "I'll keep him safe. Go on, now."
With that, Xu Qianghua's parents stepped through the portal, vanishing into the void to retrieve the rare Chaos Panther for their son.
After they left, the sister, now alone, looked around the subspace and snapped her fingers, transforming the space into a massive room.
The walls became lined with shelves full of books, a grand fireplace took up one side, and the room turned into a cozy and elegant retreat with thick rugs and comfortable couches.
A large, intricately carved wooden desk sat by one of the windows, neat and tidy, with only an inkstone resting on it.
The floor was polished marble, gleaming under the lights from a crystal chandelier. The entire room radiated comfort and calm, perfect for unwinding.
A massive bed with plush pillows and soft blankets, all made from the finest materials, dominated one corner. Everything was designed to provide a luxurious experience.
She moved toward another window, where she could see Nexara. More specifically, she had a view of the Xu family subspace office, where Xu Qianghua was busy sorting through stacks of papers that had built up after his day off.
Seeing this, she waved her hand, and a large plush L-shaped sofa appeared next to the window. She settled onto it, crossing her legs elegantly.
Once comfortable, she scanned the room, checking for any formations or other items her brother-in-law might have left, but after finding nothing, a wicked smile appeared on her face.
This smile was feared across the universe and beyond, as even the Supreme Will, the ruler of this void, was wary of her unpredictable nature.
"They'll learn the price of hurting my nephew."
The air stilled, and silence fell over the subspace. There was no sound, no movement, nothing.
Then, slowly, her expression relaxed, and the aura disappeared, restoring the peaceful, comfortable atmosphere of the subspace.
"But that's a worry for another time. Right now, I need to focus on keeping him safe and happy. After all, he's the most important person in the universe to me."
As she said this, her expression softened, and she sighed, a bittersweet smile forming on her lips. "He'll always be my little nephew, even if he doesn't know it."
She looked down at him through the view, her eyes filled with warmth and affection. "I'll never let him go. I'll protect him no matter what, and if anyone tries to take him away, they'll regret it."
She paused, a soft laugh escaping her lips. "Besides, I have a feeling his wives will keep me on my toes."
She leaned back, a satisfied smile on her face. "He's found quite a group of talented, beautiful women, and I can't wait to see what they'll do."
"If they can handle my meddling, that is," she added with a smile, clearly enjoying the thought.
"Ah, and it's been a long time since I've had a good challenge. Who knows? Maybe I'll have some fun and test them a little."
A mischievous glint flickered in her eyes. "Oh, the things I could do! This is going to be exciting."
As she considered all the possibilities, she glanced down at the scene below, her gaze filled with anticipation.
"Well, whatever happens, I'll make sure he has the best time of his life."
"Because, in the end, all I want is for him to be happy. And if his wives can give him that, then I'll welcome them with open arms."
With that, she leaned back, her gaze softening as she continued watching over him. Her presence, like a protective shadow, was barely noticeable.
