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

In a corner of the kitchen, Bai Shuiru sat cross-legged on the ground, holding her chin with her hand, watching Youtiao happily eating his snack, while stroking its back fur with her other hand.

By the way, it seems that I haven’t had enough sleep yet!

"Why did he suddenly ask this?" And it seemed like he was a little...shy just now?

"Woof." Youtiao took the time to respond to her and continued to eat.

"Youtiao, I just hugged you and I felt that you were heavier! You said you had just come into the manor and had a few meals, and you were heavier!"

"Wang."

"It seems like being a dog isn't bad, at least I don't have to shave my hair. Hehe."

The little girl suddenly had an idea. She bent her slender fingers and scratched the puppy's back. Her almond-shaped eyes turned and a playful smile appeared at the corners of her lips.

"How about we make a deal and switch?"

"If it's a girl, it's fine, but if it's a boy, he will be sterilized."

Bai Shuiru was caught off guard when she heard a man respond. The first half of the sentence sounded 70% like Hei Huomian, and there was a hint of smile in his words. She immediately turned around.

Before she could see who was coming, Youtiao was so scared that he quickly jumped over her feet and crawled into the corner, curled up and whimpering, which also frightened her so much that she let out a low cry and stepped back.

"Youtiao, Youtiao. No one said they wanted to sterilize you."

Bai Shuiru took Youtiao out of the corner, caressed him and coaxed him soothingly, then stood up and looked towards the source of the male voice, smiled and nodded and greeted: "Mr. Hei."

"It's my fault. I scared Youtiao."

Hei Zhan Ze quietly observed the instant change in the little girl's expression from surprise to disappointment, and smiled in return.

"Youtiao, we are not afraid, no, Mr. Hei is just teasing us."

Bai Shuiru held the two front paws of the fried dough sticks and waved at Hei Zhan Ze in turn.

Hei Zhan Ze turned around and opened the refrigerator door. "You do your thing. I'll come in and get some dessert for Xixi."

Bai Shuiru put down the fried dough sticks, took two steps forward, put his hands to his lips and lowered his voice slightly, suggesting:

"The chocolate orange flavor is delicious. I suggested that the pastry chef try developing a new flavor. Wanwan likes it very much. Yes, that one."

"Oh? Then let me try it."

Hei Zhan Ze took out two pieces of chocolate orange cake, left one for Bai Shuiru, smiled and nodded at her, then left the kitchen with the other piece.

On the third floor, the door of Heihuo Mian's bedroom was wide open, and he remained standing there in a daze.

If the little brush left me because of my smell...

I will stop using incense now; after confirming her identity, I will let her choose it herself.

After an unknown amount of time, someone knocked on the door and called out tentatively, "Master."

Only then did he interrupt Hei Huomian's chaotic thoughts.

Hei Huomian immediately suppressed his slightly lost expression and walked out of the bedroom, "Let's talk in the study."

The Minister of Security reported on the investigation into the intrusion from outside Lebanon:

"We have sent someone to check and there are no loopholes in the security settings."

"Then how did that floating creature get into the manor?"

Heihuo Mian's eyebrows were slightly frowned.

The break-ins happen again and again. Are they treating my Sucong Manor as an amusement park?

The head of the security department looked at the Dark Emperor's expression and reported slowly:

"There was a security guard who was a fan of Li Wai. He couldn't resist his idol's kind words and begged him to come in and take him in for a tour if the housekeeper allowed it."

“Who knew that Li Wai would barge into the manor while he was turning around to ask Uncle Nan for instructions.”

"He really did a big favor by doing this for his idol."

Hei Huomian took the hot tea handed over by Uncle Nan, took a sip, and replied calmly:

"Deduct his bonus, full attendance and day's wages, arrange for him to work as a gardener in the garden for a month, retrain him in the original position and try him out for another month. If he commits the same offense again, he will be fired immediately."

Hei Huomian's gaze then fell on the face of the Minister of Security, shocking the latter so much that he shuddered and tried hard to steady his trembling legs as he retreated backwards.

Li You quickly added:

"I have deployed twice as many surveillance cameras and installed motion surveillance cameras. All entrances and exits must be scanned before being allowed in, in an effort to prevent the floating creatures from entering the manor by attaching themselves to objects."

"I guess it's only a matter of time before I have to hand over the security duties and salary to you."

Hei Huomian raised his hand and patted his assistant's shoulder. Just as he stepped out of the study, he saw Bai Shuiru rushing over with fried dough sticks in his arms.

"Report to the boss, I'm back."

Hei Huomian thought of the embarrassment just now, clenched his fist to cover his lips and cleared his throat, "I, I'm hungry, I'm going to have breakfast."

Didn’t the boss just have breakfast more than an hour ago?

Bai Shuiru didn't dare to go against her boss's wishes, and agreed obediently: "The weather is nice today, so I should have an extra breakfast."

The man hadn't taken two steps when he realized there was a living creature following him. He turned around and saw a man and a dog who had stopped walking. He whispered:

"You, don't follow me!"

"But it's working hours now."

The little girl and the fried dough stick tilted their heads at the same time, their wet, round, dark pupils fixed on Hei Huo Mian.

"I asked you to go to work, and you report back!"

Hei Huomian also quickly escaped into the elevator and pressed the down button repeatedly. After going downstairs, he passed through the living room and rushed into the dining room like a gust of wind.

Jing Youxi watched the live auction on the projection screen, expressionlessly stroked the hem of her skirt that was lifted by the wind, slowly tapped her knees with her long fingers, and commented on her eldest son's behavior:

"Is it similar to the way he looked when he was 50,000 years old and thought he had lost his little brush and was frantically searching everywhere for it?"

"I can't say there is no connection, I can only say they are exactly the same."

Hei Zhan Ze scooped a spoonful of cake and fed it to his beloved wife.

"If I remember correctly, he started carrying his little brush with him from then on."

Jing Youxi slowed down her chewing and looked at her husband, "This is not a mango mille-feuille."

"Miss Bai recommended her. She's an interesting girl and she wanted us to entertain Wanwan and increase the interaction."

Hei Zhanze took a bite and praised meaningfully:

“The sour and sweet freshness of the orange flavor is paired with the bitter and sweetness of the chocolate. It’s not too sweet, but adds a freshness that complements each other.”

Jing Youxi's eyes lit up, he held the other's hand, and a knowing smile appeared on his lips.

"Staying at home all day is definitely not our style. When we go to pick up Wanwan tonight, you can tell me that I ate his cake, and then you can punish me by taking Wanwan to the playground. We can play there for a while, have dinner, and then come back. How about that?"

"This way there won't be favoritism." Hei Zhan Ze smiled and fed his beloved wife another spoonful of cake.

The two were planning their itinerary for the evening when they saw the assistant of the creative director of luxury goods under Mingxin Group, leading five or six subordinates into the mansion with dozens of gift boxes. When they saw the two, they hurried forward to greet them:

"Mr. Black, Mrs. Black. Mrs. Black sent this for Miss White to choose from."

Jing Youxi glanced at the first row of gift boxes with lids opened, and saw a dazzling array of swimsuits of the same style. She glanced at her husband and nodded, "Go ahead."

As everyone walked towards the elevator, Jing Youxi immediately held his forehead and sighed.

Hei Zhan Ze was about to eat the cake, and seeing this, he quickly fed the spoonful of cake to his beloved wife, and comforted her in a gentle voice:

"Xixi, what's wrong?"

Jing Youxi sighed, pouted her red lips and swallowed the cake in one bite, then snuggled into her husband's arms and stomped her feet to vent her anger.

"Zhanzhan~! I thought our Mianmian had finally come to his senses! If I were a girl, I would definitely slap him in the face if he continued to behave like this!"

Hei Zhan Ze was stunned when he heard this, and the pastry in his mouth immediately lost its fragrance.

"Xixi, why don't you give Mianmian some advice?"

On the third floor, in Bai Shuiru’s bedroom.

The assistant to the creative director of luxury goods under Mingxin Group left a message:

"Miss Bai, take your time to choose. If there's a style you don't like and you don't plan to give it to a friend, we can come back another day to pick it up." Then he led the group away.

Bai Shuiru looked at the dozens of gift boxes that filled up a corner of the originally spacious guest room, and couldn't help but shake her head and let out a sigh of relief.

Mrs. Hei is so polite!

Fortunately, the people from Ming Xin didn't let her choose on the spot, otherwise she would have gone crazy.

Bai Shuiru shrugged, turned around and went back to her workbench to continue making jewelry.

The phone beeped, and it turned out to be Hao Mianmian who replied to Min Ying's contact information. Bai Shuiru just wanted to make a joke when the other party sent a video call invitation.

Bai Shuiru answered the call, but continued to make jewelry. Half a minute later, she slowly raised her eyes and glanced at her best friend who kept trying to please her and calling her sweetheart.

"Little demon, are you willing to pay attention to your girl?"

"I'm sorry, my ancestors!"

Hao Mianmian clasped her hands together on the other side of the camera and bowed with some fatigue and worry.

"I was dealing with an order before, and the buyer argued with me for more than three hours over ten dollars, which made me want to die."

Hao Mianmian imitated the other person's expression and tone vividly, and recounted the whole cause and effect of the incident.

Bai Shuiru was so angry that he slammed the table in anger.

"How can there be such a person! Have you dealt with it? Is everything alright?"

"It's taken care of~."

Hao Mianmian waved her hands weakly, lying prone on the bed, and replied faintly:

"For people like us who work alone, from purchasing, design, production, promotion, sales, logistics to after-sales, it's all done by one person. Sometimes it's easy to forget the original intention because of fatigue and frustration."

"Come to think of it, I was also very unhappy a few days ago because I was plagiarized."

"Plagiarism?! Who is so shameless?! Ru Ru, why didn't you tell me and let me argue with him until he forgot his last name?!"

Bai Shuiru simply recounted what had happened before gradually calming her best friend down.

"Even if she saw your 'Lollipop' and got the inspiration for 'Sunflower', that inspiration also came from you. Is that giving back by plagiarizing?! Is there any justice?!"

Bai Shuiru remembered the words she had seen somewhere, and smiled gently and pointed to her best friend on the screen.

“As long as you remember your original intention, you will never forget why you set out.”

"Let's talk about something happy~! Mianmian, the Hei family has a big heated swimming pool!"

"Are you showing off to me?" Hao Mianmian pounded the bed. "You're a goblin working for a rich man!"

"How dare I? I haven't had time to go swimming yet, and I haven't had time to buy a swimsuit yet."

"How much trouble can it be to buy a swimsuit online? You once represented the school in the school league and got top three..."

Hao Mianmian on the screen stretched her neck and head, trying to see something clearly.

"There are so many gift boxes behind you. They must be filled with clothes, right? Come on, my beloved, change into them and let me see them. Come on!"

"I don't know what it is. The person who brought it said that Lady Noir sent it to me."

Bai Shuiru looked back at the mountain of gift boxes piled high on the floor and responded, "Hahaha, I obey your command!"

Bai Shuiru looked through the gift boxes and was surprised: "They are all swimsuits!"

I picked out something to change into and returned to my phone screen.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, this is the highest level of sexiness - pure desire!"

"My Imperial Concubine Ru is definitely not comparable to those coquettish and slutty women out there. She is indeed able to charm Hei Huo Mian, a bachelor at the top of the pyramid, so much that he is completely infatuated with her!"

"Turn around so I can see the design on the back! Your butterfly bones are so damn tempting... oh oh!"

"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Bai Shuiru tried to look back at her back.

Hao Mianmian sang loudly: "Deep, deep, deep!"

"This is already the most conservative swimsuit!"

The little girl quickly hid in the bathroom and changed back into a T-shirt and jeans.

Hao Mianmian was not afraid of making trouble, so she sat in her own hanging chair, patted the armrest, raised her eyebrows and started to make trouble:

"My dear, do you have the same black one? I want it even more!"

“I like white.”

Bai Shuiru stammered in response, folded her swimsuit and placed it on the stool at the end of the bed.

Although it is shameful to be shorn as a sheep, I still miss the soft white wool.

"Different men have different fetishes. For example, Mr. Black, I guess he likes back grooves and butterfly bones..."

Bai Shuiru saw the new message from Hei Huomian pop up, and she grabbed her phone as if she had been pardoned, sticking her tongue out at her bestie and saying goodbye:

"I'm not going to talk to you, an old pervert. My boss called me to work!"

Bai Shuiru carried a toolbox and knocked on Hei Huomian's bedroom door, smiling and greeting him:

"Hey, boss, I'm here to work."

Hei Huomian leaned against the bed screen and leisurely turned a page of "The Wisdom of Life".

"Remember it's work time now?"

"Hey, boss, you can say that it was my fault just now, or you can say that I made up for your mistake."

The girl spoke eloquently, which made the man push up his sunglasses on his high nose bridge, glance at her, and ask with interest:

"Tell me what I did wrong."

"As the saying goes, 'To raise someone without teaching him is a sin, to teach him without being good is to be a thief.'"

While Bai Shuiru was speaking righteously, he was also pacing back and forth, just like a teacher teaching a class.

"Since you allowed Wanwan to raise Youtiao, if you don't take good care of it, isn't this just another way of harming it?"

"So you are helping me accumulate merit?"

"Don't dare."

The man hesitated, but finally asked, "You haven't told me yet..."

"Want to eat?"

Bai Shuiru opened the flip-top lid of the ice cream can and handed it to Hei Huomian.

Seeing the other person rolling his eyes at her, she withdrew her hand with a smile and began to concentrate on scooping the ice cream.

Just as Hei Huomian shook his head and lowered his eyes to start reading again, he heard Bai Shuiru answer slowly and gently:

"Hei Huo Mian, no matter what smell you have, you are still you."

Hei Huomian was slightly startled. When he was secretly savoring the answer, he realized that his heart had already felt at ease and sweet as if it was slowly soaking in soft and sweet nectar.

The man cleared his throat, took off his sunglasses, put on a sad frog eye mask with a stern face, and instructed:

"You better keep a close eye on me, or I'll deduct your bonus too."

"As you command, Boss! Have a good sleep!"

Hei Huomian lay down, pulled the quilt over him, closed his eyes and savored the scene again and again. It took a lot of effort to suppress the corners of his lips that were repeatedly upturned, and turned over to change his sleeping position.

He reached for his smartwatch and checked the time, then turned over and changed his position.

In the quiet bedroom, apart from the occasional sound of Bai Shuiru using metal pliers to cut the metal wire, there was her subtle breathing, as well as Hei Huomian's unstable breathing and increasingly rapid heartbeat.

Hei Huomian bit the tip of his tongue, closed his eyes tightly, and changed to a prone sleeping position, murmuring the ballad he used to sing to himself when he was a child:

"Little mouse, you climbed up the lampstand to steal oil and can't get down. Meow, meow, meow, the cat is coming. Get down here."

It was not until he changed his sleeping position to one-finger Zen that he suddenly remembered something important.

Bai Shuiru heard a muffled sound from the bed behind her and turned around quickly, just in time to see Hei Huomian, who was lying on the bed, suddenly raised his head and pulled off his blindfold, his eyes full of fear.

"What's wrong, boss? What's wrong?"

Bai Shuiru hurriedly dropped the fifth box of ice cream, rushed to the man, took a horse stance, made a defensive gesture, and looked around.

"Another ghost broke in?! Don't be afraid, boss, I'm here!"

Hei Huomian had a head of lifeless, messy hair, and his eyes were a little dull due to the shock.

No, no, I, I won’t suffer from insomnia again!
