When Xiaoyun woke up the next day, he felt fully refreshed from sleeping on his comfortable bed for the first ti in days.
All of the soreness that had built up for days was gone. The headaches were nowhere to be seen.
"Ti to get up."
Just as he was about to open his eyes, the slight weight over his body instantly made him realize he wasn't sleeping alone last night.
"Did they stay in my room instead of going back?"
Looking around, he could see all of his wives lying on various sides of the bed with their pajamas still fully attached to their bodies.
They were all still asleep, with no signs of waking up. He had also been put into a pair of pajamas at so point.
Gently, Xiaoyun pushed Tianci back down from his body as he got off the bed.
"What the hell happened last night?" Xiaoyun wondered, only having a faint mory of the shower and the bed.
Unable to think of an answer, Xiaoyun headed over to the bathroom to have a little face wash to wake himself up.
"Morning, Lily," Xiaoyun murmured, seeing Lily standing before the sink with a toothbrush and a wash cup.
"Morning."
As Xiaoyun picked up his toothbrush, he quickly noticed Lily's face seemingly blushing in the mirror.
"Hey, Lily, do you know what happened last night?" Xiaoyun curiously asked as he began brushing his teeth.
"N-No. I-I went to sleep after they finished showering you."
Seeing Lily looking so nervous, a weird suspicion started to develop inside Xiaoyun's head.
He could clearly feel his leg a little more strained than before, almost as if he had been squeezed dry the night before.
However, based on his wife's clean clothes and the clean bed, it was clear that nothing had happened the night before.
"Lily, be honest with . Did you hear anything weird last night?" Xiaoyun asked as Lily began to rinse her mouth.
Lily instantly shook her head, making him feel even more suspicious of his wives. But he had no concrete proof against it.
"The only thing I heard last night was one of the baby crying... But I already took care of it before Leyan ca."
"I see... Thank you."
After Lily quickly finished rinsing her mouth, she quickly washed her face with a towel before speed walking out of the room.
"Why is she so nervous?" Xiaoyun murmured as he began rinsing the toothpaste off.

When Xiaoyun walked past the washing machine, he finally knew what happened last night.
There was an entire washing machine that oddly only had pajamas inside. More specifically, a singular pair for each of his wife's pajamas.
The clothes were still wet, sitting inside the machine and waiting for soone to load them into the dryer.
"They think they are really clever..." Xiaoyun murmured as he began carrying the wet clothes into the dryer.
He could sll an extrely strong lavender scent being applied, which Leyan only used on clothes that had been stained during sex.
With all of the pajamas inside and the dryer turned on, he quickly noticed another washing machine that had all of his clothes inside.
Once again, more evidence led to sothing happening last night, as a whole bedsheet was alongside as well.
Even his clothes were covered in the strong lavender scent, just to hide the bedsheet sll, as there was no other washing machine to wash the bedsheet alone.
"Sneaky little bugger... They could have at least woken up for it or sothing..."
After everything was loaded into the second dryer, Xiaoyun left the changing area and headed straight to the living room.
Sitting down on the sofa, the clock showed it was only eight in the morning, which is usually the ti they wake up to get ready for work.
"It's Saturday today, right... I should probably cook breakfast for myself then... Yeah."
Heading over to the kitchen, Xiaoyun quickly grabbed the apron as he opened the fridge for ingredients.
Much to his disappointnt, there was barely any ingredient left inside.
"No wonder why the food yesterday felt so much less. It was the last batch... I an, it is Saturday today."
"Leyan probably is planning to go grocery shopping." Xiaoyun thought to himself as he took out the last pair of eggs.
Closing the fridge, Xiaoyun turned his attention over to the cabinet, which had a bag of ran and a few canned goods left.
Staring at the limited ingredients, he eventually called it a day by closing the cabinet and just making it up right on the spot.
With an entire countertop filled with various ingredients, he rolled up his sleeve before prepping all the various ingredients.

"Morning honey..."
"Morning... Why do you look so tired? You didn't sleep last night?" Xiaoyun asked as he stood before the stovetop.
"I did sleep. I just slept the wrong way." Leyan murmured as she took a seat at the table, her eyes barely remaining open.
"You can go back to sleep if you want. I'll cook the food for everyone today."
"Really? Are you sure? You just ca back——"
"It's fine. My body feels full of energy after last night's sleep. Worry about yourself first, okay?"
"Thanks, honey... Oh, snap! The babies!"
Just as Leyan fully woke herself up from the table filled with panic, Xiaoyun's face remained fully calm.
"I already fed the baby and helped them potty trained. You can go back to sleep in peace. I'll wake you up later for lunch."
"Aww. Thanks, honey... I'll leave it all to you then."
As Leyan headed out of the kitchen, Xiaoyun could finally shift his attention back to the food on the stove.
A few minutes later...
"Xiaoyun, I did what you asked!"
Lily quickly ran up to Xiaoyun from the guest hallway, her face filled with excitent as if she had just finished doing sothing important.
"Good job... What kind of prizes do you want?" Xiaoyun said warmly, rubbing his hand with a towel before patting her on the head.
"You!" Lily answered without missing a beat.
Xiaoyun froze, his hand hovering in midair. For a mont, he swore he could see a dog tail swinging around Lily's back.
"D-Did I ask for too much?"
"Of course not. I was expecting you to say sothing more physical. Like a toy or sothing."
Xiaoyun answered instantly, his hand resuming the head pat after noticing Lily's face looking a little nervous.
"I'm not a kid anymore, okay? Just because I'm small, you assu I want a toy?" Lily questioned with a hint of irritation.
"Whattt? I never said that. Now you're putting words into my mouth. That's not really nice of you."
As he turned off the stove, seeing Lily's grumpy face started to make him feel a little guilty inside.
"Okay, okay. Sorry. I didn't an to make an assumption... Now, can my princess tell what you an by you?"
"You is you. Hmph!"
Xiaoyun's apology was ignored as Lily crossed her arms, giving a vague answer that only confused him even more.
"I'm going to guess you just want to spend ti with then. Can you help carry these over to the table?"
"Hmph!"
Despite Lily's grumpy mood, she still walked over to the countertop, helping him carry the plates full of food over to the table.
---
A few hours later...
As Xiaoyun finished putting the last al onto a plate, he could finally turn off the stove once and for all.
All of his wives were already sitting by the table, waiting for him to carry the last plate from the kitchen.
"Dundundah! My magnum opus. The perfected Braised pork ribs with the secret sauce."
"Ooo."
The mont the pork rib was put down on the table, the glimring coating made everyone at the table a little morized.
"Didn't you say your White Cut Chicken with Ginger green onion oil was your magnum opus last month?" Yuqi pointed out.
"Ahem, that was last month. Every month is a new magnum opus." Xiaoyun answered, taking a seat between Anna and Kate.
"Mhm. Right... Let's see if it is actually good."
As everyone at the table takes a small piece, their eyes widen the mont the braised pork goes into their mouth.
The entire kitchen fell into dead silence, with the only sound being the quiet chewing sound.
"So how is it? Do you all like it?"
Xiaoyun asked, his face looking a little nervous as the silence was starting to beco nerve-racking.
He hadn't cooked for so long that he wasn't sure if he had added the right amount of ingredients or if he had even cooked too long with the at.
"It's so good!" Nami complinted, with her chopstick already reaching for another piece.
"A lot better than mine," Leyan murmured as her face suddenly started to turn dark for so reason.
With more and more of them joining in the complint, Xiaoyun finally let out a small little relief inside his head.
"Thank you, thank you... The other dishes should also be good. No need to rush all of it."
