Guān Jiāwén finally couldn't help but vomit. The white light vanished in an instant. She slowly opened her eyes and looked at Xiāo Xún, who was covered in her vomit. She immediately felt very embarrassed.
"I, I'm sorry."
Xiāo Xún casually picked up a towel from the side, wiped himself, and then threw a long robe to her. "Change into this."
Hearing this, Guān Jiāwén realized that she was wearing nothing but the black, round-neck 'undershirt'.
She was so frightened that she crouched on the ground, hugging her legs tightly.
"Alright, I won't look at you. Take off the black clothes I gave you, and then put on this robe."
After saying that, Xiāo Xún turned away.
Guān Jiāwén slowly took off the black clothes, then quickly put on the long robe. The robe was very loose and lined with fleece.
After changing, Guān Jiāwén looked at the room's decorations. They were nothing like what she usually saw. The light bulbs overhead were not tungsten filaments but some unknown luminescent crystals. "Where is this place?"
Xiāo Xún turned around and examined Guān Jiāwén. She really suited the robe. "Since you've arrived here safely, I'll tell you the truth!"
As he spoke, he walked behind his desk to a blueprint hanging on the wall. "This blueprint is for the atomic bomb developed by my engineers. Your purpose here is to perfect it and work with my engineers to produce it."
Guān Jiāwén was shocked. "You want to build an atomic bomb? What are you going to do?"
"Snap~"
Xiāo Xún snapped his fingers. "You'll know soon enough."
With Xiāo Xún's crisp snap, Aries suddenly appeared beside him, startling Guān Jiāwén. "Director Xiāo, how did someone suddenly appear beside you? Is he human or a ghost?"
Xiāo Xún glanced at Aries and said to Guān Jiāwén, "Let me introduce you, this is Aries, the head of my Twelve Star Envoys."
"How, how did he suddenly appear?"
Xiāo Xún smiled. "This is what I'm about to tell you. Don't be too surprised."
He walked to the window and pushed it open, letting the cold wind rush in. "This world is not our original world. The moon in this sky is blue, and there are only four continents. The continent we are on is called Atlantis, and the country we are in is called Saintiroman."
"Our company isn't also called..."
Xiāo Xún nodded. "That's right, our company is named after this country. And our company's Director Mu is the empress of this country."
Guān Jiāwén pinched the inside of her thigh hard, confirming she wasn't dreaming. "Good heavens!"
"Don't rush to be surprised yet. The surprising things are still to come. You don't need to pinch yourself. I opened the window to tell you that all of this is real. It's not a movie, it's not a prank or a gag, and it's certainly not a variety show. This is a living, breathing other world."
Then Xiāo Xún said to Aries, "Go find Zeppelin."
"Yes!"
Aries responded, and a hexagram array descended from above. Covering him from head to toe, Aries's body disappeared.
Seeing Guān Jiāwén's wide-mouthed, astonished expression, Xiāo Xún said, "Amazing, isn't it? This world is a magical world."
Guān Jiāwén calmed herself down. "Then why did you call me here?"
"I already said that."
At this moment, Aries suddenly reappeared, with an old man, only reaching Aries's waist, standing beside him.
"A gnome..."
Guān Jiāwén exclaimed in surprise. "Are there really such dwarves in this world?"
Xiāo Xún gave her a look. "Don't be so surprised. He is your future supervisor. Your task is to cooperate with him to develop the atomic bomb."
Zeppelin saluted Xiāo Xún. "Your Highness Svein."
Xiāo Xún nodded in return. "This is the assistant I found for you. She has had contact with atomic bombs."
Now it was Zeppelin's turn to be surprised. "This thing has already been invented..."
Xiāo Xún corrected him. "I've said it countless times, there is only discovery in physics and chemistry, not invention."
Guān Jiāwén secretly complained in her heart: You were the one who said that!
Xiāo Xún had Aries take Zeppelin away. After they left, Xiāo Xún said to Guān Jiāwén, "Since you are here, you must abide by all the customs and habits of life here. I haven't written down the employee guidelines, so you can take notes yourself. This is specifically made for you."
Guān Jiāwén said "oh," and then remembered that she was here to work.
"First, you are not allowed to reveal anything about me, or Director Mu, from our original world. Second, you are not allowed to pry into our affairs in this world. Third, you must live completely according to the customs and habits of this world and not do anything that goes against the common sense of this world. Fourth, you must fully cooperate with Zeppelin, that is, the gnome from just now, to build the atomic bomb. After it's built, you will be responsible for its daily maintenance and upkeep, training apprentices. Once everything is in order, you can return to your original world."
Guān Jiāwén nodded after listening. "What if I accidentally break the rules?"
"It will be handled according to the situation. If you expose your identity as a transmigrator, you will be immediately taken back to your original world."
Then Xiāo Xún walked up to Guān Jiāwén and whispered, "I'm quite familiar with the Dongshan Psychiatric Hospital. No one there will believe what you say."
Then Xiāo Xún closed the window, opened the office door, and shouted, "Someone!"
A staff member from the armaments factory walked in. "Your Highness, you summoned me."
"Take this young lady to familiarize herself with the work and procedures of our armaments factory, then tell her what we need to pay attention to, and finally, give her a studio apartment closest to Zeppelin."
The staff member said to Guān Jiāwén, "Miss, please come with me!"
Guān Jiāwén rolled her eyes and muttered under her breath, "You're the one who's a miss, can you speak properly?"
The staff member paused, glanced at Xiāo Xún, and thought: Is this a gentleman? No! His Highness Svein said it was this young lady.
He didn't know that 'miss' in Guān Jiāwén's world was a profession, not a form of address.
After arranging for Guān Jiāwén, Xiāo Xún had Aries take him back to the castle. Upon returning to the master bedroom, he checked the time. There were ten minutes left.
When the time came, Mù Jiāhé appeared on the bed.
She looked at Xiāo Xún beside her with a very calm expression. "Is your business finished?"
Xiāo Xún nodded.
Mù Jiāhé examined Xiāo Xún. "You didn't happen to bring that singer to that world, did you?"
Xiāo Xún quickly waved his hands. "Not at all."
"Then who did you bring to this world? You promised me you wouldn't lie."
"Guān Jiāwén..."
"Your former secretary? Why did you bring her?"
"She got into some trouble in that world, so I brought her here to lie low."
Mù Jiāhé looked unconvinced. "Just because of that?"
Xiāo Xún nodded. "Otherwise? I don't like her."
"Who said you like her? Even if you had the desire, you'd need the kidney for it!"
Xiāo Xún patted his kidney area. "How do you know if you don't try?"
