Rescuing the Villainous Boss with a Little Dirty Master

As soon as Jiang Heng got home, he went to the bathroom to wash away the bad luck he brought back from the research institute. When Lan entered the house, she heard the sound of water coming from the bathroom. She paused in closing the door, but continued without changing her expression.

886, who had already returned to the robot's body, sensed the approaching person, quickly stood up, ran over, and hugged his leg.

"Brother, is your robotic arm waterproof?"

Lan looked down at the little robot beside her, reached out and touched its round head. She couldn't help but smile. This robot was indeed Jiang Heng's; it was just as cute as him.

"Waterproof."

The robot squinted, clearly looking like it was watching a show, but some people, with their own biases, interpreted it as happiness.

"Could you please get Jiang Heng a bathrobe? He forgot. I don't use waterproof ones."

Lan glanced towards the bathroom, then at the little robot, his eyes darkening slightly. He decided to temporarily forget that all models of robots on the market were waterproof.

I stepped into the bedroom, grabbed a bathrobe from the closet, and headed towards the bathroom.

886 watched as he casually grabbed a short garment, barely reaching his knees, his eyes gleaming. He chuckled twice and chose to lie down and wait for the "little black room" package.

There was a knock on the bathroom door. Jiang Heng thought it was 886 looking for him. The sound of running water stopped, and he walked to the door and opened it a crack.

"What about 886...?"

Caught off guard, Jiang Heng caught a glimpse of a long leg peeking out from the crack in the door, and her voice trailed off.

"886 said you forgot your bathrobe."

Lan, being a gentleman, did not peek through the crack in the door, but raised the hand holding the bathrobe slightly in Jiang Heng's direction.

The door opened wider, and the steam from the bathroom, along with its fragrance, enveloped Lan's face. Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her breathing became longer.

"Lan said his robotic arm is waterproof."

The cheerful sound of "886" came from the sofa. Jiang Heng chuckled, knowing that his system was up to something again, but it suited his tastes perfectly.

What should have been a perfectly normal sentence, in the current situation, caused Lan's thoughts to drift elsewhere. Suddenly, a surge of heat rose within her, and her heart inexplicably quickened.

"It's waterproof..."

Jiang Heng drew out the last syllable, and Lan felt his hand, which was extended to the door, being grabbed and pulled into the bathroom. His Adam's apple bobbed, and he did not resist the force.

The bathroom door closed again, the sound of water hitting the ground was no longer continuous, the splashing water sprayed onto the floor and walls, and the heat filled the space again.

Looking at the familiar little dark room, 886 wiggled her little feet and hummed a little tune, feeling that Tongtong's sugar-making skills had improved even more.

Jiang Heng was carried out, and his head was resting on someone's shoulder, feeling somewhat drowsy. Lan gently stroked his still trembling back and turned her head to kiss his hair.

"Want to take a nap?"

"A literal sleep?"

Jiang Heng's hand gently brushed against his neck, like a feather touching him, yet it made him tense instantly, knowing that the other was teasing him again. He raised his hand and gently patted a soft spot, "Do you still want to rest?"

Jiang Heng chuckled softly, and as she closed her eyes, she muttered, "Remember to wake me up."

Knowing the importance of things, Lan carried the person into the quilt and sat down to the side to use her personal computer to do her own thing.

When Jiang Heng woke up and felt the warmth beside him, he rolled over and buried himself in the other's waist and abdomen, looking like he didn't want to get out of bed.

Lan turned off the personal terminal and rubbed the back of his neck. "Still sleepy?"

"I'm not sleepy anymore, I just don't want to get up. When will I be able to live a life where I can just lie down and relax?"

"Soon, at the latest five days."

Lan checked the time and was about to say he could lie down for another half hour when Jiang Heng sat up. His hair was sticking up in the air, making his still-dazed face look several years younger, which made Lan adore him. He leaned over, cupped Jiang Heng's face, and kissed him several more times, thus killing off the remaining half hour.

Finally, the two arrived at the Ji family mansion right on time, thanks entirely to Lan's driving skills.

Inside the hovercar, Jiang Heng had no intention of getting out. Apart from Ji Xianming, he didn't trust anyone else in the house for the time being.

After sending a message to the other party, the door opened not long after, and someone led the way, taking them directly to the underground parking garage, where there was an elevator that went directly to the indoor area.

After 886 jammed the surveillance, Jiang Heng led Lan off the hovercar. Everyone else in the house had been asked to retreat to the small building in the backyard, and no one was allowed near the main house. In the living room, Ji Xianming stood in front of the sofa, watching the screen show the elevator ascending; his heart pounded faster and faster.

With a "ding," the elevator arrived. The elevator doors opened to both sides, and Ji Xianming stepped forward, suppressing the tremor in his voice.

"Xiao Yan... no matter what, the Ji family will definitely repay him handsomely."

"Mr. Ji, we still need your help with this matter."

Jiang Heng showed Ji Xianming the video she had taken of Ji Yan. Ji Xianming stared at the robot in the video, which was no longer recognizable as human, his pupils dilating. "This, this..."

Jiang Heng knew he didn't want to believe it, so he sighed and relayed what Ji Yan had asked him to say: "He asked me to tell you that he actually found the treasure you buried in the garden a long time ago, but he pretended not to find it because he wanted you to spend more time with him."

Ji Xianming's family was vast and his businesses spanned across Sakanan, but when Ji Yan was still young, he was busy expanding his empire, so he rarely spent time with him. When he finally did come home, Ji Yan insisted on playing games with him. To get him away from his own business, Ji Xianming devised a treasure hunt game. Later, Ji Yan complained that it was too difficult to find the treasure and insisted that Ji Xianming play with him...

After hearing this, he was certain that the person in the video was his child, but how could it have turned out like this?

Jiang Heng saw that the other person's eyes were red and tears were rolling down their cheeks. She felt a little sad, but now was not the time to be sad.

“Mr. Ji, he and others are currently being held in the research institute, which plans to destroy them.”

"Research institute? Very well. I've invested countless sums of money in them over the years, and in the end, they're targeting my own child."

Ji Xianming laughed in anger, then looked at Jiang Heng with a ruthless glint in his eyes, "Just tell me what you need me to do."

Jiang Heng and Lan exchanged a glance, and the other picked up the conversation. Ji Xianming would be an extremely important part of their plan.

Meanwhile, at the research institute, Li Tianming had ordered someone to keep an eye on Jiang Heng until he returned, with reports to follow. Therefore, they didn't think anything of it after a day without receiving a reply, thus cleverly missing the opportunity to uncover the truth.

After leaving the Ji residence, Lan took the people back to the base for resettlement.

"You'll be staying at the base for the next few days. Just tell me if you need anything."

The remaining matters were taken over by the Operations Department.
