母蜂的复仇

“You go ahead and shower. I’ll stand guard outside. It won’t be good if Big Brother Wan and the others suddenly come over,” He Xing said.

Du Yue looked at He Xing with a slightly teasing look. ‘You’re calling him Brother Wan so easily, huh?”

“I’ve been calling him that for a long time, and I’ve gotten used to it. Even if I tell him that I’m older than him now, he won’t believe me.”

!!

“That’s true. You go out and keep watch. I’m going to take a shower!”

After He Xing left and Du Yue closed the bedroom door, she took out a bathtub filled with water from her interspace. She took off her clothes and walked into the bathtub. Her body was soaked in warm water. Once the warm feeling arose, the fatigue from so many days of traveling was not worth mentioning. Du Yue did not soak for too long. After a quick bath, she came out of the bathtub.

After changing into a clean set of clothes that were exactly the same as before, Du Yue put the bathtub she had used into her interspace and took out another one filled with clean water. When she opened the bedroom door, she saw He Xing sitting on a small tool at the entrance of the living room. The stool was foldable and had been in the trunk of the car. Before Du Yue could walk over, He Xing turned around. “You’re done already?”

Du Yue stepped forward and nodded. “I brought out water and clean clothes for you. You can go. I’ll keep watch.”

“Mhm!” He Xing stood up but stopped after taking two steps. He turned to Du Yue and said, “If you’re hungry, you can eat first. Don’t wait for me. Don’t go hungry. It’s not good for your health.”

“Alright,” she said. Du Yue agreed readily, but she was not in a hurry to bring out food to eat. Instead, she sat down on the small stool that He Xing had been sitting on earlier and took a dry hair towel to dry her hair.

Du Yue’s hair was shorter, so it could dry quickly. The shampoo and conditioner she used were also odorless, so she did not have to worry about others finding out. Now, as long as they did not have water for a day, they would have to sneakily get water from their spaces. They had to solve the water problem as soon as possible.

Du Yue put on her glasses and looked at the empty and desolate little courtyard. She quietly pondered what she could and should do. She pondered until He Xing came out of the shower. Hearing He Xing’s footsteps, Du Yue got up and walked toward the bedroom. She put the bathtub away in her interspace.

He Xing used a mop to clean the floor while Du Yue took out a table and chairs. The two of them sat down facing each other. As their eyes met, they said the same thing at the same time, “What do you want to eat?”

“I’ll have whatever you want.”

After giving the same reply, the two of them shut their mouths at the same time.

A moment later, Du Yue could not help but laugh. “If there’s nothing in particular that you want to eat, let’s have barbecued meat today! As for barbecuing the meat, all the ingredients can be barbecued together.”

It was convenient, and they could eat a lot of ingredients, killing two birds with one stone. As a man who loved meat, He Xing had no objections to this suggestion.

Du Yue took out the range hood and turned it on. Then, she took out the gas stove and the pot for roasting meat. As for the ingredients, the two of them took out all the food that they liked. During this period of time, they had been eating whatever they could. Now, they could finally satisfy his cravings. The two of them were too engrossed in eating and could not spare any time to talk to each other. After they finished eating, they cleaned up the leftover dishes and felt sleepy.

“If you’re tired, then go to bed. I don’t think anyone will cause trouble tonight,” Du Yue urged He Xing, whose eyelids were drooping. He Xing nodded and wrapped his arms around Du Yue.

“Let’s sleep together.”

Du Yue, who was being treated like a human bolster, did not struggle. Instead, she adjusted herself into a more comfortable position and snuggled into He Xing’s arms. “Alright, let’s sleep together!”
