The next morning.
“Ugh…”
Qiu Qiu, still in his sleep, suddenly felt… so crowded, and a bit heavy.
He blankly opened his somewhat sleepy eyes, only to find that his wings were being pressed down, unable to break free even with struggling.
“Ah Lin?”
Did Ah Lin press down on his wings again?
【Hisss…?? Holy crap, Host baby, wake up, what are you doing!???】
The system screamed as soon as it came online.
What the heck is going on!????
A fist-sized… a fist-sized purple glass ball!???
Even Qiu Qiu looked blankly to the side.
QAQ
Due to its large size, and the extremely beautiful color, under the sunlight, you could even see specks of flowing, iridescent gold within the purple gemstone, making it seem more like a piece of glass.
After all, if such a valuable gemstone were real, it would probably have been hidden in the treasure hoard by the dragon, who has always loved collecting jewelry, and would not be easily shown.
【King, look back quickly, Master has woken up! Master saw it!!!】
【Purple gems are a thousand times more valuable than yellow gems!! The prices at auction houses are not even comparable! Not to mention, this is the only purple star in the entire interstellar!!】
Ortnes was simply overjoyed with this gem. He had never seen such a magnificent and dazzling purple gem in his life!
As expected of his King! His collection level is the best in the entire universe!
Jin Lin, who had already woken up and was standing quietly by the window looking outside, twitched his tail subtly upon hearing this.
This gem was indeed quite nice.
Mainly… it looked a lot like that little beast’s eyes.
Clear, bottomless, with a hint of dreaminess, very beautiful.
However…
“Ah Lin, is, is this yours?”
Qiu Qiu rubbed his eyes, his soft, milky golden hair a bit messy, looking at this enormous stone. He tugged for a long time before pulling his sleeping robe out from under the stone.
He touched the surface of the stone blankly, wanting to move it but unable to, as it was a bit too big, almost as big as himself.
“…”
Jin Lin finally turned around, looking at the little beast staring at the gem, and imperceptibly nodded.
Although Ortnes was overly noisy, he was right about one thing.
A gem of this purity could only be found in the City of Order in the entire interstellar.
He probably scared this little beast.
After all, even the Prince’s Mansion wouldn’t have…
“Ah Lin.”
However, in the next second, the always good-tempered little beast flew to his side with a frown for the first time.
“…?”
Jin Lin looked at the little beast approaching by the window, his semi-transparent hair slightly illuminated by the morning sunlight, and his translucent light purple eyes, and tightened his dragon tail for the first time in his life.
“Why do you throw stones around on the bed? It’s a very bad habit.”
“Also yesterday, your attitude towards grandpa was a bit impolite. Grandpa was still sitting, but you were lying next to him, sleeping soundly.”
“A good little dragon should learn to be polite.”
Seriously looking at his little dragon, Qiu Qiu realized for the first time the complexity of raising a dragon. Sometimes, his Ah Lin’s temper towards outsiders was really a bit terrible.
Ortnes: 【…? QwQ】
Jin Lin: ……………………
“Ah Lin, what are you staring at Ortnes for? Don’t secretly bully him, Ortnes is very well-behaved now.”
“You should go and pick up the stones you threw around now. If you really like them, I can find you a small basket to put your collections in the future.”
Picking up Ortnes, who seemed to have been threatened, Qiu Qiu earnestly urged Ah Lin to learn to clean up after himself.
It seemed that the legends of the dragons were true, they really liked to collect these shiny things, but throwing them around on the bed was really not good.
Jin Lin: 🙂
Ortnes: 【…】
King, please forgive your subject for explaining… explaining again!
There must be something wrong here @#!￥*&

“Zai’er, you’re up so early today?”
Downstairs, Qiu Chongshan looked at his son flying down and couldn’t help but call out happily.
It was rare not to see that dragon following him down, happy!! So happy!
“Hmph, Eldest Brother won’t be able to eat breakfast today!! Eldest Brother actually didn’t get up!!!! People who sleep in don’t get breakfast!”
Qiu Yiming, on the other hand, was shaking his legs, his mood still flying high even after a night, almost with the words “happy” written all over his face.
What’s more, it was the first time in so many years that Eldest Brother had messed up!!!
Leihman on the side also looked hesitantly at the Prince, and the empty chair of the Eldest Young Master.
“…Should I go wake up Eldest Brother? Maybe he’s just asleep.”
However, Qiu Qiu, seeing this, flew in front of Qiu Chongshan, offering to go upstairs and wake up his brother.
He could also wake up his brother! He suddenly felt a bit happy.
“Eh, okay then, since zai’er wants to go…”
Qiu Chongshan watched the little fellow flutter his wings and happily go upstairs, belatedly stroking his chin.
Sleeping in late, so his own son could personally wake him up?
Thinking about it, it wasn’t bad.
[Tiger ponders]
“Holy crap, is this cheating?? That guy, Eldest Brother!”
Qiu Yiming, watching this scene, couldn’t help but scratch his head.
He felt weirdly that it wasn’t a coincidence!?
Qiu Qiu, swaying and flying upstairs, was in a rare good mood. The morning time was always very happy.
Looking at the sunlight outside the French windows, it was as if everything was just beginning.
He also liked mornings the most before, the aunt would give each child a sweet and crispy apple.
“But, where’s Eldest Brother? Speaking of which, Eldest Brother is also a beast, so does Eldest Brother also have times when he wants to turn into a beastly spiritual form every month?”
【Uh… this, it’s hard to say, after all, your eldest brother and your second brother have completely different personalities. Your eldest brother doesn’t seem like the type to allow himself to lose control.】
【Right, the original book never mentioned your eldest brother’s beast form.】
The system was taken aback by the question and touched the background database, trying to answer.
Eldest Brother has always been a bit mysterious.
Downstairs, Leihman looked at the empty seat, feeling that something was wrong.
“Speaking of which, it seems to be around these days for the Eldest Young Master too?”
“Ah??”
“What!”
The father and son on the side were shocked and looked over.
“But isn’t it like Eldest Brother doesn’t have it?? I didn’t see any reaction from him when he was a kid, anyway, he always has an expressionless face. He wouldn’t even change into his beast form to play with me, tch.”
Qiu Yiming leaned back in his chair, recalling it with a bit of nonchalance.
“That’s true, the eldest really doesn’t like to turn into his beast form.”
Qiu Chongshan nodded upon hearing this.

“…Brother? Brother, are you awake?”
Qiu Qiu flew all the way to the second floor, landed on the golden doorknob, and after forcefully holding it open, peeked his head in a bit cautiously.
Brother’s bedroom style is also different from Second Brother’s. The color tone isn’t golden, but a very textured dark color.
Plus, with the curtains not drawn, there was an indescribable luxurious and lazy atmosphere inside.
It felt like an adventure.
Following his memory, Qiu Qiu still vaguely remembered the general direction.
“Don’t sleep in anymore, Brother…!”
He carefully landed on the pillow, trying to wake up his eldest brother.
However, in the next second, his pupils widened slightly as he looked at the bed.
An elegant and powerful black “big cat” was lurking lazily by the pillow.
The powerful sense of strength was perfectly hidden under the streamlined muscles, and in the next second, it opened its eyes as if its territory had been invaded.
The vertical beast pupils had a natural wildness.
“…Bro, Brother?”
Gripping the pillow beside him tightly, Qiu Qiu called out softly, almost inaudibly.
Under the immense fear, every feather stood on end, not daring to move at all.
“Ugh!”
Only to be picked up and dragged to its side in the next second, gently licking his chin.
