The Overnight Chosen Wife: Darling, Kiss Me Deeper

After thinking about it, she decided to be a demonness. It was impossible to change a character unless one created another account. The advantage of being an immortal was that after attaining a certain level, one would no longer need to borrow power from the in-game immortals during battles. They would gain their own power. 

She was surprised to find that there was already a fierce battle going on. A treasure chest had been announced a few minutes ago. Although a team of humans had been the ones to find it, it was currently in the hands of demons, and was at risk of being snatched away by goddesses. 

She laughed and created a username, then sent a message to the game. 

[Does anyone need a teammate?] 

Almost instantly, two demonnesses and a demon were beside her. It was a full team so they joined in the battle. 

However, since they were all new to the game, they were struck down before they could even move a few steps. After restarting a few times, they were more used to the game, so they played for longer. 

The game chatroom was blowing with activity as several players earned enough experience points to rank highly on the leader board. Their usernames made one speechless. 

[I rule the leaderboard. Bite me.]

Lanni burst into laughter. Why did that arrogant name sound like something Lin Jian would choose? 

There were crazier ones like [Grandmaster of leaderboard legends] and [The moon's little star.]

When Lanni saw the top player's name, she couldn't hold back her laughter. [The moon's ONLY star]. When she saw that [the moon's little star] had disappeared, it couldn't be any more obvious. Xingyu had just gotten rid of a rival and declared dominance while at it. 

The jealous man even sent a message into the game. 

[The Moon's ONLY star: Luna is mine!] The message was obvious. One could use Luna's name if they wished, but that was only if they were tired of living. 

After that, he fought battles in a row and managed to snag the top position on the leaderboard. As if competing with him, [I rule the leaderboard. Bite me.] made sure to come second, proving that he was indeed Lin Jian. It made one wonder just how idle these CEOs were. Didn't they usually have countless meetings to attend every day? 

… 

The feedback for the game was excellent. It was almost as though everyone was playing and enjoying it. Within the first day, it was clear that "Demons Vs Gods" was going to be popular. 

In the evening when Xiehan picked her up, Lanni asked whether he was playing the game too. In the end, she was baffled at his username. [L'homme du soleil]? What did that even mean? She knew that it must be a French term but she didn't understand what it meant. 

She looked up at him curiously. 

Grinning flirtatuously, he leaned over and explained, "Your in-game username is "Little sun." 

"Yeah…so?" She was still confused. She had only decided on this nickname because she saw her sister's "Little moon". 

He glanced at her like she was slow-witted. "If Xingyu's name is "The moon's only star, what is mine?" 

"The sun's star? No, that doesn't make any sense. The sun's… man?" She guessed as her heart picked up its pace. When she saw him nodding, her cheeks flushed. Why was her man so cute? 

"Did anyone ask about the bracelet?" He asked as he sped along the highway. 

She sighed in disappointment and shook her head. "I'm still convinced that someone will." 

He looked at her but didn't say anything that might dim her hope. He was currently making arrangements for Ji Feifei to be set free. 

"Can you drop me off at my dad's villa? He called me over for dinner." 

He nodded and switched the lane at a roundabout.

…

Xia Hanchen was overjoyed when Lanni walked in while holding Xiehan's hand. He had called his daughters over for dinner and did not expect that not only would they both come, but they would bring his sons-in-law while at it. 

"Come in!" He jovially led them to the living room. 

Xingyu frowned when he saw his friend. "You traitor. So this is what you have been doing!" 

"What have I done?" Xiehan was puzzled as he sat on the couch with Lanni beside him. 

Xingyu looked like he had been dealt a blow. "You pretended to be busy recently when you have been secretly coming over to spend time with our father-in-law. Do you think you will become the favorite son-in-law by doing that?" 

"Uh…" Lanni was speechless. That was a thing too? 

Xiehan ignored his grumbling friend and started catching up with Xia Hanchen. Of course, he wanted to be in his father-in-law's good books. If not, would Xia Hanchen trust him to take care of his precious daughter? 

Because both of his darlings were home, Xia Hanchen was excited. "I'll make dinner for…" 

"No, don't!" Luna yelled reflexively, startling the three of them. When she saw their baffled looks, she giggled with a hand over her mouth. "If he cooks for us, we will know that he is happy because his daughters and sons-in-law are back. However, those who don't know will think that he is angry and doling out revenge." 

The three of them finally understood. So, he didn't know how to cook. 

"Why don't I cook? It's been long since I cooked." Xiehan rolled his sleeves and stood up. 

Seeing him, Xingyu frowned bitterly. He was doing it on purpose! He was sure that Xiehan had been spending a lot of time cooking for Lanni and his skills must have improved by leaps and bounds. He was going to use this chance to please Xia Hanchen! 

What a coincidence, he had been cooking for Luna too. He would definitely outshine him. He rolled his sleeves too. "I'll go too." 

Xia Hanchen laughed at their dramatics. "The three of you stay here and munch on snacks. I'll show the guys around the kitchen." 

Luna chuckled at the show that was about to unfold. "They're so childish." 

Lanni laughed and made herself comfortable, then tied her hair into a bun so it would not be a bother. When she raised her hand, her bracelet came into clear view. Luna saw it and was a little surprised. "How pretty! Is this from EFW? Is it custom-made?" 

Lanni smiled and looked at her. "Yes it is, but how would you know?" 

"Just a guess. It's the brand you like most and you prefer bespoke pieces." She took Lanni's hand and examined it. "It's so unique and…" 

The word "beautiful" hung on her lips. 

Lanni saw her puzzled expression and felt tensed for some reason. "Luna, is something wrong?" 

"Of course something is wrong! How could you and dad get father-daughter jewelry and not include me?" 

"Huh? Father-daughter jewelry? What are you talking about?" Lanni was baffled. 

"Is it a coincidence?" Luna mumbled softly, looking relieved. "Makes sense. You cannot get different pieces of the same set so many years apart. Is it just a coincidence?" 

Seeing her sister's shocked look, she explained, "Dad had a watch when we were young. I remember it because it was his most treasured watch. On its face, there was this sign." She pointed at the strange sign on Lanni's bracelet. "However, I don't see him wearing it anymore. It must have gotten too aged or perhaps, it's ruined." 

Though the latter was almost impossible based on the quality of the watch. 

Lanni was puzzled when she heard her sister's words. It turned out, it was her father's watch. Could it be that she had seen that watch before, and that was why she found the sign familiar? 

Although it didn't sound very plausible, it was the only clue she currently had. 

Under the guise of going to drink water, she found her dad in the kitchen and casually asked, "Dad, I remember you had a treasured watch before. I don't see it anymore." 

Xia Hanchen was visibly stunned, but he laughed. "Are you trying to make me give it to you? Sorry, it was a gift from a friend. I wouldn't let you have it." 

"Friend…what friend?" 

While Xiehan and Xingyu were busy preparing ingredients to cook, he responded with an indifferent smile. "Flynn's father." 

"Wait, what? You know his…" She shook her head. "No, the point is, Flynn is an orphan." Or at least that was what he had claimed before. 

Xia Hanchen raised an eyebrow. "Is that what he told you? Turns out he doesn't trust you too much." 

"Dad…" She complained. 

He sighed. "Since he didn't tell you, it's not in my place to mention it. Anyway, after spending some time with him, I found out that his dad is actually someone I'm very familiar with." 

Lanni nodded and didn't ask anymore. At least she had a clearer clue now. Flynn's father would definitely have a clue. Perhaps, he even knew the meaning of the words on the letter. 

Trying to push her luck, she raised her bracelet to him and asked, "Do you know what this means?" Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click <a href="#&apos;s-only-star_51806581460883189">#&apos;s-only-star_51806581460883189</a> for visiting.

Xia Hanchen was a little puzzled. However, it was not time to ask questions yet, so he merely responded, "This is a signature. Flynn's father's.
