The night naturally wasn't calm but the housekeeper suppressed his fire and didn't clean up the marshal. The reason was because his child took the initiative...

This little leopard was never obedient when sleeping. He rolled around in the arms of Marshal Black Dragon. It was unknown how many rolls it took but eventually, his head was buried against the chest and his tail was wrapped around the marshal's arm!

The housekeeper wondered why the child had to be in the arms of the marshal to sleep. Didn't he use to sleep on his own bed before?

The robot housekeeper mobilized the smart system of Aojia's bedroom and started his research. After less than one second of data analysis, the housekeeper came to the conclusion that the marshal's body temperature was higher than the child's body temperature. This bedroom was set according to the marshal's sleeping habits. In other words, the room temperature was low and it was normal for the leopard to search for a heat source.

Thus, the housekeeper simply invaded the central control system of the bedroom and adjusted the room temperature. The room temperature soon increased. The furry little leopard was hot but didn't act according to the housekeeper's logical analysis. He didn't leave the blanket or evacuate from the marshal's side.

Instead, the front paws touched Aojia's chest and his head was against Aojia's chin as he made vague sounds, "Aoji... jiao..." Aojia... don't spit fire...

Apparently, the little leopard was in a daze when sleepy. Aojia instantly opened his eyes and touched the little leopard's back. In the dim light of the room, his golden vertical pupils flashed and he glanced to the location of the control system in the room. The housekeeper was lurking inside the central control system's data. In the end, he had to adjust the temperature of the room back to its previous state and forge a system failure.

Aojia firmly held the little leopard and closed his eyes again. Then the little leopard made comfortable sounds while sleeping.

The first confrontation, the robot housekeeper lost.

The next day, Aojia had to get up early. He rubbed the little leopard's head, gently moved the leopard from his arms and quietly left the bedroom. The robot housekeeper in the living room, who had carried out a series of devastating data simulations all night, nodded slightly at Aojia.

The housekeeper had carried out devastating simulations but the effect wasn't good. It would only destroy the duke's house and not the man trying to hurt his family. Therefore, the housekeeper could only continue to fulfill the conscientious procedure set up by the manor's previous robot housekeeper. He brought Marshal Black Dragon coffee and a package, speaking in a mechanical voice, "Master, there is a package."

Aojia slightly raised his eyebrows while drinking the coffee as he looked at the standard packaging. It was the packaging of the free energy stones provided by the Interstellar Resources Group to the beastmen of the empire. It also had the hidden logo of the Interstellar Resources Group. This little leopard moved fast...

Aojia didn't grab the parcel and told the housekeeper to place it in the living room for when the little leopard woke up. Aojia had just ordered the housekeeper to prepare breakfast when his quantum computer flashed and a message from Guard Calant arrived. "Sir, it is an emergency. Quickly return."

Aojia's pupil shrank and he stood up. He quickly changed clothes and took a few steps into the bedroom. The little leopard had turned onto his back, revealing a soft white belly that moved up and down as he breathed. Aojia's lips curved and he turned to whisper to the robot housekeeper suddenly following him, "Tell him I will come back later and he doesn't need to wait for me to eat. Take good care of him."
