Omnipotent Husband System

Hao Ren brought Duke Wen Kain, he fought with the Ye General in a similar realm, he lost and died. By the evening, Hu Baihe and her forces also conquered the rest of the strong men and sent the word that the conquest was complete.

Han Lingshi was busy working, but then she recalled how she had a surprise for Hao Ren, and told Hao Mei to take over the work. She left the study to find Hao Ren sitting in the rocking chair under the silent dew pavilion with a Qin in his lap.

The guards and the servants were all mesmerized by the music. It was a gentle tone, Han Lingshi could sense that Hao Ren must have composed it when he was here alone. She sighed, feeling sad in her heart, but she did not show it on her face. As she stepped closer to the pavilion, the people noticed her, and she waved her hand.

They all bowed to her, and left the pavilion. Hao Ren seemed to be lost in playing the music, he did not realize that Han Lingshi had come up. The young lady sat down on a stool by his side, and poured a cup of tea for him.

After a few minutes, when Hao Ren stopped playing, he sensed Han Lingshi beside him. He opened his eyes and smiled at her. She was looking back at him. Hao Ren raised his hand and placed it on her cheek. She asked him softly, "What were you thinking about?"

Hao Ren replied with a smile, "I was sitting here thinking when you would come over. That reminded me of this song I wrote when I was alone here. I always thought that one day, when I am playing this song, you would be here by the time I finished the song."

Han Lingshi placed her palm over his and rubbed her face against the callused skin, and said, "I have always wanted to be with you. However, the elders said that I must learn how to administrate things and think like a ruler, not like a businesswoman. I wish that if I could go back in time, I will never ask you to come here."

Hao Ren smiled and shook his head as he replied, "Had it not been for the distance between us, would our feelings be the same? I do not wish to change what happened. Do not worry, we will stay together forever."

Han Lingshi looked at him and nodded. She said, "Come, let us go home."

Hao Ren nodded, and they walked out holding hands. The people on the way bowed to them in salutation, and the two nodded to them. As they came out of the side gate of the palace, they acted like a normal couple. They changed their clothes to a normal brocade attire.

Suddenly, an old lady came up to them holding a basket in her hands. Han Lingshi frowned, she was suspicious, but Hao Ren patted the back of her hand and asked, "Grandma, what can I do for you?"

The old lady smiled kindly and said, "Today the farmers had a great harvest and my son sent over a great load of food. I am the only one at home, eating all this is impossible. So I am giving away what I can. You two reminded me of my husband and me when we were young. I know it is not much but please accept it."

The basket was medium sized, and it was loaded with fresh vegetables and grains. Hao Ren used his Yin and Yang eyes instinctively as he accepted the basket and the couple thanked the old lady.

The lady said, "It is not me but the King and Queen that we should thank. They have been so nice to us, so benevolent. Life has turned into a bliss. May the heavens bless them and may they reign forever."

Han Lingshi and Hao Ren smiled at her words and then after seeing that she went back to her stall, they left. Hao Ren carried the basket in one hand while Han Lingshi held his other hand. The market was bustling with activity and to avoid the crowd, the couple came back home. Paradise City had one percent crime rate, and that too was petty issues.

The city guard acted quickly and solved everything, making the place safer. As Hao Ren was about to push open the door, the young lady said, "I forgot, we need to bring back the kids. Go, get them all."

Hao Ren sighed and said, "I thought the surprise you had was something similar to that night."

Han Lingshi was surprised, and then she smacked his shoulder lightly before her face turned crimson. Hao Ren chuckled, and pecked her cheek before vanishing from the spot. Han Lingshi looked around her, before she quickly rushed up to the neighbors.

Then she came back to her place with all of them in tow. Only they knew what they had planned.

...

Meanwhile, Hao Ren was carrying Agnee in his arms and walking through the market. The little girl had not yet been out of the palace ever since she came here so she was very curious about this world.

The young man obliged after all, she was just that cute. Yin and Yang followed behind them with great obedience. Yin had grown up from the moment she consumed the bloodline purification pills. She looked like she was a twelve years old now, and Yang was nine years old.

That was why the children in the neighborhood all treated them as big brother and big sister. After a round of the market and buying Agnee all sorts of sweet snacks they came home. Han Lingshi and Hao Ren had set up a rule, that they will not use divine sense inside the house as long as it was not a life and death crisis.

Hao Ren abided by these rules and pushed open the main door. Agnee looked around and said, "This place is so nice."

The young man asked, "Do you like it here?"

Agnee nodded, and said, "That big place, the people always follow me there, I do not like it."

Hao Ren smiled and nodded, after all, Agnee grew up in the village, and when she moved in with them, she still had a great deal of freedom compared to the life in the palace.

In the coming days, Hao Ren intended to slowly turn the city around the palace into the scape that looked like a mixture of the metropolitan and history. However, it was still something that he had yet to consider seriously.

While he was thinking what to do, the young man pushed open the door, and just as he stepped inside, Han Lingshi exclaimed, "Happy Birthday!"

Hao Ren was taken aback, the lights turned on, and he found the five families gathered in the house. He did not know what to say. He was a star annihilation realm expert, yet he was feeling overwhelmed with the birthday surprise.

Han Lingshi came up to him and held his arm as she said, 'You did not celebrate your birthday even once in all these years. Sister Mei told me that you only took the longevity noodles upon her insistence. So this is my surprise for you.'

Hao Ren smiled at her and said, 'I would love to unwrap my gift right here and now, but well, god damn sophistication.'

Han Lingshi chuckled as they communicated in this secret. Hao Ren thanked everyone, and then he saw Yin and Yang carry a cake from the kitchen. They placed it on the table, and greeted him. Hao Ren patted their heads and asked, "Isn't birthday supposed to start on midnight?"

Han Lingshi nodded and said, "It is midnight, the city is awake because there are busy watching the golden fireworks sanctioned by her Majesty to celebrate the harvest festival."

Hao Ren smiled and realized what was going on. She must have calculated everything. The young lady cut and served cake to everyone, and the people ate in relish. Michael Nord took out a small box and said, "Sister-in-law told us that you like music. This box contains a special token that was given to Maestro Xilin for the creation of Moonlight Charge Song a few hundred years ago. This token came to my family as a pawn item. Maestro Xilin passed away and this token became a keepsake. I hope you like it."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Similar gifts were presented and Hao Ren accepted them all. When the women were serving cake, and food, Agnee came to Hao Ren, and beckoned him to come closer. Hao Ren lifted her in his arms and the little girl smooched his cheek hard. Hao Ren raised his brow with a smile and asked, "Is this my gift?"

Agnee nodded with a proud face and said, "You are a good boy. Grandma Tang said boys love to kiss. This is my gift to you, and in return gift, you do not have to get me a beautiful cat, okay? Agnee is a big girl she understands that gifts are for children."

Hao Ren was amused by her and then he pecked her cheek hard as he said, "I will get you a kitten soon then."

The party had just started, when Han Lingshi received a text on her communicator, and her expression changed. She was enraged.
