The Emperor of Hell's Green Plum Pillow She Escaped Again

Bai Shui sighed:

Bai Shuiru, you are sometimes too stubborn.

Hei Huomian had clearly bowed his head according to the agreement between you two, but you...

Forget it, I'd better avoid suspicion until the results of the competition are out.

In the Sucong mansion, only Bai Shuiru's studio and Hei Huomian's room still had their lights on, but it was as if there was an aisle between the two rooms, and there was a seemingly reasonable, independent but obvious gap.

Everyone in the Hei family, even the fried dough sticks, were entrusted by Hei Huomian to take turns delivering a bowl of Yuanyang Hu to Bai Shuiru every night. And every night Bai Shuiru would take the bowl with a smile and take a sip, but would still be distant and polite to Hei Huomian the next day.

Four days later, the final afternoon for reviewing the entries.

Hei Huomian sat down and leisurely sipped the brewed Taiping Houkui tea. He put down the teacup in his hand and glanced at everyone present calmly, "I hope you all still remember my previous decision."

Everyone was silent and nodded.

Hei Huomian still gave an indifferent look to the deputy project leader and meeting host, indicating that the final voting and selection of the shortlisted works had begun.

Although the entire voting process went extremely smoothly, it lasted until nearly eight o'clock in the evening. The final result speaks for itself.

"Sorry, I'm back late." Hei Huomian returned to Sucong Manor. From the moment he entered the manor house to the moment he took the elevator upstairs, he kept reminding people:

"Master, this is Miss Bai's new favorite roast duck, pork belly, and barbecued pork. The master personally made spicy crab meat spring rolls and sesame dumplings."

"Get out of the way! Don't get in the way of my love affair with your father! You little brat, don't say I didn't warn you. I checked after you were born. No matter how many lives you have, you will only have this one wife. You decide for yourself tonight!"

"Son, the Hei family motto."

"Mianmian, Sister Ruru has been mad at you for days! Will she ignore you forever?"

"Woof, woof, woof!" Even the little dog Youtiao accompanied Hei Huomian up the stairs out of concern, and only sent him to the door of Bai Shuiru's studio. Then he turned back every few steps and trotted to the corner to meet up with the three eavesdroppers.

Hei Huomian picked up the double-petaled gentian from the vase in the corridor and placed it on the dining cart. He untied his tie and threw it by the door. He then took off his suit, unbuttoned his shirt above the vest, and deliberately opened his collar before knocking on the studio door.

Hei Huomian listened to the little girl's gentle voice answering the door, opened the door and pushed the cart in, "Uncle Nan said that you ate a little sloppy for dinner, so stay with me to eat more, okay?"

Under the warm light, the originally straight petite figure suddenly stiffened, "I'm not hungry." Even the tone of voice dropped significantly by 4 or 5 degrees.

"The sleeping conditions here can't be compared to the high bed and soft pillows in the bedroom. You've worked hard for most of the day, so don't treat yourself badly when you sleep." Seeing that the girl didn't respond, the man slowed down his tone and asked coaxingly:

"Still angry with me?"

Bai Shuiru's body was stiff, and she let the man hug her from behind, while she modified the design drawing by herself, "I'm not angry. I'm preparing better works for my future champion, and strive to be worthy of the title." Her tone was steady and it was impossible to tell her emotion.

Hei Huomian secretly clicked his tongue:

Very good, the little brush has been following me for a long time and has learned to hide his emotions.

"Don't be so nervous. You are indeed a true champion."

Bai Shuiru spent half a minute modifying the blueprint before responding calmly:

"That's what you taught me, boss. Works and performance are more important than slogans and publicity."

Bai Shuiru paused and asked slowly:

"The results are out this afternoon, right?"

Hei Huomian was slightly startled, lowered his eyes and sighed:

Well, it seems that I will have to stay alone in the empty room for at least one more night.

"Yes, there are results."

As he expected, the little girl did not answer.

"Then you go ahead, I'll go wash up." Hei Huo Mian lifted her chin and gently pulled her towards him, intending to kiss her. However, he couldn't help but freeze his smile when he saw her expression was cold and her eyes were downcast. Then he still smiled and kissed her cold lips, pecked her cheek lightly, and instructed:

"Don't work too late, go to bed early."

"Ah."

The little brush didn't hide her thoughts well after all, but it's okay, she still kept her original intention and stubbornness, which means I protected her well enough.

Hei Huomian walked to the door and looked back at the person who was obviously relaxed and concentrating on his work.

As he turned around, he accidentally saw a new ornament on a chest of drawers by the wall:

A three-masted sailing ship with a frame and mast made of seven or eight pearl chains of different sizes, and supplemented by K gold accessories.

Against the backdrop of the light blue wallpaper, the ship seems to be sailing freely in the boundless sea against the wind and waves.

Hei Huo Mian could even see a little man in sheep pajamas on the bow, turning the rudder quickly and raising his hands to cheer:

"Jingwei, full speed ahead! Yoho~! World, here I come~!"

The man's approving smile suddenly straightened:

This ship wasn't there a few days ago, right?

Hei Huomian sighed softly, left and closed the door.

He pinched his eyebrows and looked back at Li You who appeared teleporting.

"Emperor Ming, Master Jing has been invited here."

"If you want to find me, you should consider the time. I'm taking a bath and playing games!" Jing Churan, who was soaking in the bathtub, suddenly appeared in the corridor, grabbed a big rubber duck and threw it at Hei Huomian to vent his anger.

When the big yellow duck covered with foam was 5 centimeters away from hitting Heihuo Mian's face, it was swallowed up by a ball of black flame without any warning, turned into ashes and disappeared in the air.

"Hey~! It seems you are still in a bad mood~!"

Hei Huomian frowned, glanced at Bai Shuiru's studio, and disappeared instantly.

Afterwards, Li You grabbed Jing Churan and followed him into Hei Huomian’s study.

"I asked you to prepare a decoction for Shui Ru that can calm her mind, soothe her nerves and nourish her brain, so as not to give the other party any chance to take advantage of her. Instead, you came up with something weird. Instead, she remembered some of the things, and she freely used the rest to come up with another story." After saying this, Hei Huomian picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip, trying to suppress the anger that was steaming up.

Jing Churan stood up and stepped out of the bathtub, ignoring the water dripping on the expensive hand-woven carpet, and sat down on the leather sofa, crossing his legs. "My Meng Po soup can indeed calm the mind and help with sleep, but it is not a formula for brainwashing and forgetting memories. Or do you want her to drink a dose of pure Meng Po soup to wash away all memories of her relationship with you after this reincarnation?"

Hei Huomian was speechless for a rare moment. He raised his head and drank the tea and tea leaves together, then put the empty cup on the table.

"You rarely lose control like this." Jing Churan put on the bathrobe handed to him by Uncle Nan, took a sip of the hot tea, raised his eyes and saw that Hei Huomian seemed to have regained his composure, and smiled again:

"I reminded you to tell her as soon as possible." He motioned to Uncle Nan to take out a small bottle of liquid from the bottles and jars placed beside the bathtub and handed it to Hei Huomian. He then raised his teacup as if to offer tea, "Drink."

Hei Huomian glanced at his loosened fist, the nails of which had turned black and were as sharp as eagle claws.

"Don't tell Shuiru about this!" Heihuo instructed Uncle Nan, then took the potion and drank it.

"Oh, at this speed, I'll have to prepare a few more bottles and keep them by your side," Jing Churan stood up and took off his bathrobe before stepping into the bathtub and lying down. He and the bathtub disappeared instantly, leaving only a light sentence, "So I don't have to run around and not be timely enough." Then he landed.

Hei Huomian waved his hand to let everyone leave, and teleported back to the bathroom in the bedroom listlessly. When he turned on the shower, he was shocked to realize that he had not taken off any clothes.

An unknown amount of time had passed before Hei Huo Mian vaguely heard the sound of a door closing outside the bathroom. Without even turning off the water, he teleported back to the bedroom area, all wet. "Little pillow, I changed to the shower gel that you thought smelled so good when we were shopping together before..."

His eyes fell on the empty King-Size bed and he panicked. He quickly moved around to look around, making sure that no one had come into the bedroom area or even the cloakroom. Then he let out a long sigh of frustration.

Hei Huomian teleported to the door of Bai Shuiru's studio, and suddenly stopped knocking on the door. He frowned and went back to the bedroom. He found his phone, edited the message and sent it:

"Go to bed early and don't stay up late. As long as we are healthy, you and I can pursue our dreams together no matter how old we are."

Hei Huomian, who was leaning against the bed with his head down and eyes closed, was suddenly awakened by the alarm clock. He hurriedly picked up the mobile phone that had fallen beside him to check. Not surprisingly, he did not receive any message from Bai Shuiru. He sighed and realized that it was already the next morning.

Hei Huomian put on his bathrobe and rushed to Bai Shuiru's studio. He knocked on the door and found that Bai Shuiru was not there. He turned around and was about to go downstairs when he heard the sound of a car engine starting downstairs, so he hurried to the window.

I saw a mini car that Bai Shuiru had bought some time ago driving towards the gate of the manor.

In the passenger seat of the mini car, Dark Guard Twelve turned around and saw Hei Huo Mian waving at the window, reminding:

"Ms. Bai, Mr. Hei is calling you!"

"I'm going to be late for work." Bai Shuiru bit off the fried dough stick in his mouth, responded vaguely, stepped on the accelerator to the limit, and roared out of the manor.

Hei Huomian looked at the reminder that no one was answering the call on his cell phone, sighed, looked at the car that was getting smaller and smaller within his sight, and teleported back to the cloakroom to change clothes.

At the same time, in the office and commercial area centered on the Mingxin Group, there is an open-air seat at a coffee shop.

Rao Minzhi took the tablet handed over by the other party, flipped through the pages quickly, raised her eyes and glanced at the boy opposite her suspiciously, "Why don't you do it yourself?"

The young man smiled faintly and responded:

"Shouldn't I take action myself to vent my hatred for the person I hate the most?"

Rao Minzhi curled her lips and smiled charmingly, put the tablet on the table and slid it back in front of the other person, "Thank you. I'll pay the bill." Then she stood up, scanned the code to pay, and joined the crowd of workers who were rushing to work and punching in in her high heels.

The young man sitting opposite Rao Minzhi curled his lips and sneered, pushing the coffee in front of him away with his fingertips in disgust. When he looked up again, he found that a tall man wearing sunglasses, about 28 or 9 years old, had sat opposite him without him noticing.

Qi Chu crossed his legs, tilted his head slightly, and looked lazily at the boy opposite him, "It's fun to pretend to obey but actually disobey, right?"

"Is the coffee here really so delicious that it attracted you to come here in person?" The young man picked up the coffee in the center of the round table, took a sip, frowned, shook his head, put down the cup, and his eyebrows and eyes changed into his original appearance - Hao Mianmian, and he casually tidied up the thick long hair on his temples that was messed up by the wind in a charming manner.

Hao Mianmian tilted her head and raised her eyes to Qi Chu provocatively, "Or did you make an appointment with your girlfriend to go shopping, eat, watch a movie and get a hotel room later?"

"In the Yin and Yang worlds, even if you don't obey, she is on official business and you have to obey. She came to the human world without applying and it was during the day. Apart from performing official duties, she can't do anything romantic." She shook her slender index finger, as if kindly reminding, but quietly blooming like a peony in front of the courtyard at the corners of her eyes and eyebrows:

"Don't be willful~!"

Qi Chu maintained a wild and unbridled smile, stood up and buttoned up his suit, then walked to Hao Mianmian's side, raised his head slightly, looked into the distance, and sighed:

"Oh my! Today's weather is really nice. It's a good day for a date."

The sarcastic and smug smile on Hao Mianmian's lips froze into ice when she heard the words "I know what you are doing." - "Remember, without me, you can't achieve anything."

"It was me back then..." Before Hao Mianmian could finish her words, her neck had already tightened and she could only make a humming sound.

She couldn't help but tremble slightly as she lowered her eyes and saw that the coffee in the cup in front of her was silently raising its body like a snake, and swiftly pounced on the prey - her neck, circling around and around.

"Back then," Qi Chu smiled politely. Every time he spoke a word, the "coffee snake" would tighten its grip on Hao Mianmian. "It was because of me that you, who were imprisoned in Siyuan, had a chance to wake up and escape."

"So you can only do what I tell you to do." As the man's figure inexplicably faded away, his words lingered in Hao Mianmian's mind like a narration, lingering for a long time.

Hao Mianmian was left alone, stroking her neck, gasping and coughing, her eyes angrily looking through the enthusiastic people around her, their well-intentioned but noisy inquiries, and staring at the place where the man disappeared.

As lunchtime approached, secret guards 12, 7, 13 and 5 took turns to encourage Bai Shuiru, trying to persuade the stubborn lady boss who had not responded to her boss with more than three sentences a day for five consecutive days.

"Miss Bai, the boss invites you to his office for lunch. I smell barnacles, grilled lamb chops, egg fried rice, orange chocolate pastries, and your favorite double-petaled platycodon. It's so beautiful and romantic!"

Grilled lamb chops and fried rice with eggs smashed with a stick?

Bai Shuiru paused slightly while working, but reached out to pick up the water cup, took two sips of green tea to moisten his throat, and continued to modify the design without waiting for the secret guard to speak.

"Ms. Bai..."

"Shut up! If you argue with me again, I will force you to leave." Bai Shuiru saved the document that Han Shuli asked him to complete without even looking up. After delivering it online, he started designing a bolo bow tie himself.

The four guards looked at each other and could only stand by silently, waiting for the clock hands to move to almost 12 noon.

The four guards cheered in secret and started lobbying again:

"Ms. Bai, we'll be off work in 30 seconds. Please save it and go to your boss's place for lunch."

"No, I heard the restaurant has new dishes today, I want to try it." Bai Shuiru saved the photo in seconds, turned off the phone, grabbed her phone and keys, and mixed in with the crowd of people leaving get off work, heading towards the elevator.

"No, Ms. Bai. If we can't invite you, even if the boss doesn't fire us, he will still make us work overtime without any vacation..."

"Miss Bai, think about all the delicious food. If you don't go, the boss will eat it all by himself. What a pity!"

"Yes, Miss Bai, please have mercy on us, the little secret guards. We also want to be evaluated for performance and excellence at the end of the year, and get a mixed suite and twelve knots..."

"Shut up!" Secret Guard Twelve glared at Secret Guard Nine in embarrassment.

"I support you. If Hei Huomian dares to touch you, just try it!" Bai Shuiru suddenly stopped, turned around and pointed at the secret guards, "Everyone, disperse! I'm going to the cafeteria to eat the new dishes today!"

Bai Shuiru turned around to look for the fastest elevator going down, and heard the dark guard responsible for protecting Hei Huomian teleport and shout:

"Oh no! A dozen or so people were not able to participate in the group's cross-department competition after multiple complaints, so they surrounded the boss and demanded an explanation!"
