He swore not to cause a big fuss, yet in the end, he still made her cry.

She curled up in his arms, sobbing, with her smooth, porcelain-like back arched, her long hair half covering her rosy cheeks, and teardrops hanging from her thick lashes, looking pitiful yet incredibly endearing.

Shen Mo soothed her to sleep, kissed her forehead, then withdrew to wash his hands in the bathroom. After calming himself down, he returned to the bedroom and slept with his wife in his arms.

…

The next morning, Shen Mo, along with Ada, Natasha, Yuri, and himself had their usual balanced breakfast, then checked their weapons and ammunition, and set off punctually at 9:30.

By the time Bai Youwei got up, the house was already empty.

She brushed her teeth and washed her face at a leisurely pace, vaguely recalling that Shen Mo seemed to have kissed her in her half-asleep state and even said “good morning”.

At this thought, she couldn’t help but giggle, sweet as honey.

After freshening up, she left her room and was courteously greeted by the robotic servant, which smiled and asked, “Did you have a good rest last night?”

“Not bad~” Bai Youwei curled the corners of her mouth.

The maid then asked, “Do you have any clothes to change into?”

Bai Youwei gathered a few items for her, and then went downstairs for breakfast. The eggs prepared by the male servant were quite good; she ate two and drank half a glass of milk.

After finishing breakfast, she truly had nothing to do.

She went out to the yard to take a stroll and bask in the sun, peering through the patterned, hollowed-out fence to see the neighbor’s robotic servant busily attending to chores, sometimes hanging bedsheets, sometimes watering plants, tirelessly working.

Sometimes she would see some living people passing by the street in front of the yard, but no one seemed to notice her.

This neighborhood was filled with luxury villas. The teams living here must all have considerable strength.

Bai Youwei idly sat in the yard for a while, dozing off under the warm autumn sun.

As she prepared to go back inside, she caught sight of several people passing by the yard, recognizing one of the men as the same person who had chatted her up at the subway station. His distinctive handlebar mustache made a lasting impression.

Whether it was the man’s sharp senses or not, almost as soon as Bai Youwei looked at him, his gaze also turned towards her, mixed with surprise and delight.

“Hey~ young lady!” the young man greeted her, “So you live here? What, is your husband not at home?”

Bai Youwei frowned in annoyance, turned around, and went back inside, ignoring him.

Laughter came from outside, seemingly his companions making fun of him for not being well-received by the girl, with one loud voice saying, “Nick, if you’re thirsty, I can lend you my Erynda!”

“Screw off, your doll doesn’t wash itself for a month at a time, are you trying to kill me with the stench!”

“Hahaha!…”

Filthy and vulgar jokes faded with the footsteps of the men as they moved away.

Bai Youwei stood by the window for a while, then asked the maid cleaning the table: “Who were those people?”

The maid looked out the window, smiling, and replied: “They’re the residents of 23 Gelard Avenue, just one intersection away from us, not far.”

“How many people in total?” Bai Youwei asked again.

“Five,” the maid continued, “A team must consist of no fewer than three people and no more than five.”

Bai Youwei pondered for a while and didn’t ask further, turning back to her room.

…

Shen Mo and his group returned half an hour later than expected.

Before they even entered, they were greeted by an amazing aroma of pepper, numbing spiciness, hot spiciness, mixed with the fragrance of meat, filling the entire yard, tempting anyone to salivate uncontrollably.

“Oh my God, what is this!” Ada, drooling uncontrollably, pushed open the door, heading straight to the dining table without even thinking about showering first.

Bai Youwei was setting the table, wearing a cute apron looking every bit the devoted wife. She looked up at Shen Mo and gave him a tender smile: “You’re back, go wash your hands, then come and eat.”
