"My skills are nothing, I'm far from my father's level."
Mu Jiahe wiped her mouth with a paper towel, "So it's a family legacy! No wonder your skills are so good."
Xiao Xun sat opposite Mu Jiahe, looking at the environment, and suddenly became nervous, "Did you notice anything different about the house?"
Hearing Xiao Xun say this in such a tone, Mu Jiahe turned her head and looked around, "No! Nothing more, nothing less."
Xiao Xun lowered his voice, "That's not what I mean, I mean the house has become cleaner."
Mu Jiahe didn't understand what Xiao Xun meant, "This is hardly any different. The cleaning company has been here. Don't be so suspicious all the time. If the person who wants to kill you hired someone from that company, she would have to be on duty. If she wasn't on duty, the agency would send someone else. Do you think they come directly here? They need to clock in at the agency first, and then be sent to the complex by the agency."
Xiao Xun was relieved when he heard this, "So that's how it is! That's quite convenient."
Mu Jiahe nodded, "Now, due to too many incidents with live-in nannies, this complex rarely uses them anymore. Employers sign contracts with the agency, and the agency directly pays the nanny. The employer and the nanny don't have a direct employment relationship, which saves a lot of trouble."
After the two finished their meal, they went directly to Mu Jiahe's bedroom.
Since Mu Jiahe's bedroom was not cleaned, it was still particularly messy.
Mu Jiahe frowned as she looked at it, "You clean this place up first! I'm in a hurry to get to the morning court. I'll come back after you're done." She then lay down on the bed, and in the blink of an eye, only a set of clothes was left on the bed.
This left Xiao Xun stunned, "This is like a magician changing a person!"
Although he was unwilling, he had no choice but to help clean up as he was staying under someone else's roof.
"When I didn't have a job, I cleaned my cousin's house. Now that I have a job, I have to clean my boss's house. Am I destined to clean houses for women?"
He complained while picking up clothes from the floor, "What are these people doing, rummaging through things? Do they think I'd hide them in the drawers?" He looked at a drawer full of messy underwear, especially bras and stockings stuffed into one drawer.
In fact, these things weren't rummaged by others, but rather by Mu Jiahe herself.
He instantly remembered Mu Jiahe casually picking up a robe and putting it on, which was very likely.
After organizing all the items, he took the dirty clothes downstairs and cleaned the carpet with a vacuum cleaner.
By the time he finished, he was already sweating profusely, and two full hours had passed.
Xiao Xun guessed: Two hours here, and it must have been a long time over there, right?
He wiped his sweat, went back to his bedroom, took a shower, and now, with the protection of those people, he felt absolutely safe, so he became more bold in everything he did.
After showering, he came to the master bedroom wrapped in a bathrobe, "Anyway, I don't wear clothes when I come and go, so I'll just do this!"
Then, he imitated Mu Jiahe, adjusted his breathing, stabilized his mind, and prepared for a free fall.
Next, he leaned back and fell heavily onto the soft bed, only to be bounced back up.
He looked around, nothing had changed, "Why am I still here? Is my method wrong?"
With this thought, Xiao Xun tried falling backward, forward, sideways, did front rolls and back rolls, trying all sorts of poses. In the end, he was so tired that he lay down on the bed, but still couldn't travel.
He lay on the bed, thinking: Could it be that there's a spell? Or do I only travel when I'm in danger?
He recalled last night, when he nervously backed away with the gun, his footing was unstable, and he fell onto the bed, which is how he went.
So he got up and began to simulate yesterday's scene. First, he sat by the door, then stood up, raised his right hand, and slowly backed away. When his calf touched the edge of the bed, he suddenly leaned back.
He still didn't succeed. He sat cross-legged on the bed, wondering if yesterday was just a coincidence.
After struggling for a long time, his body was already exhausted, so he lay down on the soft, large bed in the master bedroom and fell asleep.
In the dark void, an energy vortex suddenly appeared and instantly expanded to thousands of miles in size.
Within this energy vortex, extremely violent spatial energy filled the air, emitting a very ferocious aura in all directions.
In a country called Bantu Radell on the continent of Atlantis, there was a giant city covering an extremely vast area. Tall, wide city walls stretched outwards, with no end in sight.
In the center of the city, a huge white tower pierced the sky, its top invisible, as if it could reach the heavens.
Inside the white tower, there was a very secret chamber. In the chamber, a one-eyed old man with white hair and beard, a face full of wrinkles, and an unknown age, was staring intently at a crystal ball in front of him.
A point of light suddenly appeared within the dark crystal ball. The one-eyed old man's expression changed dramatically, making it impossible to guess his true thoughts.
But then, a mournful voice echoed in the secret chamber!
"God! You have not abandoned this continent!!"
In his half-asleep state, Xiao Xun felt a smooth, slender leg draped over his waist. He felt uncomfortable and wanted to move the leg away. He touched its smooth and delicate surface; it was clearly a woman's leg.
He suddenly woke up. He was alone, where did the person come from?
Just then, an arm also reached out, hooked around his neck, and pulled himself into her embrace.
The soft and fragrant body made Xiao Xun think he was dreaming. Yes! He must be dreaming, and it was a lewd dream.
It was not yet dawn, and Xiao Xun's body's instincts made him unwilling to move an inch.
He was enveloped by the "gentle as water," as if it were melting his entire body. The other person was like an "octopus," tightly entwining him. The "surging waves" made him feel suffocated, an "excitement" he had never felt in over twenty years.
However, sweet dreams are never long-lasting. With a "smack," he was brought back to reality.
"You came without a sound, you scared me."
Xiao Xun was released from the "restraint." The woman who had been "gentle as water" was the currently furious Mu Jiahe.
He covered his face and looked around, "I came? I tried many methods before and couldn't come, so I got tired and fell asleep. I don't know how I got here."
Mu Jiahe put on her bathrobe, "That's a terrible excuse. It's still early, find a place to sleep yourself! Don't go out, be careful the guards mistake you for an assassin and arrest you." With that, she turned and went back to sleep.
Xiao Xun stood up in a daze. He didn't know where his "clown" clothes had gone, so he could only curl up and sleep on the stool at the foot of the bed.
What occupied his mind was not how he successfully traveled, but the soft and fragrant sensation from earlier.
This made his body surge with desire after being single for over twenty years.
He remembered that year in school, late at night, Wang Ping called him to quickly bring "condoms" to a hotel near the school.
That was also the first time he saw a naked woman. Although it was just a fleeting glimpse, it left an indelible and profound memory in his young heart.
He didn't know where the courage came from, but he boldly stood on the stool, stepped onto the bed, and landed on the cloud-like mattress. Guided by the moonlight slanting through the skylight, he slowly lay down behind Mu Jiahe.
Holding his breath, he reached out his left hand over the quilt and wrapped it around Mu Jiahe's waist.
Mu Jiahe's body rose and fell rhythmically with her breathing, showing no reaction, whether it was because she was sleepy or for some other reason.
Seeing that Mu Jiahe didn't react, he breathed a long sigh of relief. However, Xiao Xun only held her and made no further moves. He thought he would just hold her for a short while and then get up.
Unexpectedly, this hug made him fall asleep as if he had been drugged.
