Mu Wanqiu's dressing had always been provocative, especially after eating Jiang He's corn. She walked like the wind, brimming with charm and confidence from head to toe.
"Oh?"
"What brings you here, Miss Mu?"
Jiang He teased, poking his head out to look at the car parked outside. "Didn't Miss Wu come with you?"
"What?"
Mu Wanqiu giggled. "Still thinking about my bestie?"
Studying Jiang He, she said, "My bestie has a good impression of you. She's now the chief of Lingzhou City's Department of Education and the dean of the Martial Arts Academy. She would definitely be moved to tears if you were given the position of vice-dean or something, and might even repay you with her body."
Heh.
Jiang He smiled but did not say anything.
What do you mean by a good impression of me?
Isn't she just lusting after my body?
Only then did Mu Wanqiu notice Jiang He's mansion, and could not help exclaiming in surprise, "Your mansion …"
"I booked it online."
As for whether Mu Wanqiu and the others would believe him or not, that was up to them.
"Do you have business with me?"
"Come, let's talk at home. Dinner is probably ready."
Jiang He opened the door and gestured for her to enter.
Meanwhile, Mu Wanqiu entered the mansion curiously and looked around, smiling. "I really envy your idyllic lifestyle … I would move in with you if I'm not too busy with work."
Jiang He, however, did not seem to hear Mu Wanqiu. He was looking around, utterly confused.
Where was everyone?
Sora?
The kitchen …
No one?
There was no food on the dining table.
Could it be that the maid he planted had a time limit? Would she disappear on her own when her time was up?
No way, right?
Mu Wanqiu noticed the look on Jiang He's face and asked, "What's wrong, Jiang He? By the way, I'm here for two things … "
Before Mu Wanqiu could finish, Jiang He had already pinned her down on the sofa and laughed. "We'll talk later. Take a seat — I just got out of the fields and I'm covered in dirt, so I'm going to take a bath."
Mu Wanqiu blushed at that.
That …
That …
Wasn't that inappropriate?
Her mind wandered a little, and she promptly rose to her feet, exclaiming angrily, "Jiang He, I'm here to talk business with you today. Moreover, we're just partners, and things haven't developed to that point yet!"
She fiercely swung her hand and turned around to leave. Biting her red lips, she said, "If you continue to take advantage of me, I'll leave!"
“？？？”
Jiang He did a double take.
Take advantage of you?
My maid is missing, and I'm so anxious that I'm dying. How would I have the time to flirt with you? This was questioning his character. His face darkened and he scolded, "I told you to sit here and wait for a while. Why do you talk so much nonsense? What a mess. Are you daydreaming? "
Tap, tap, tap.
Jiang He promptly went upstairs.
Mu Wanqiu was left awkwardly, not knowing whether to leave or sit.
Gritting her teeth and stomping her foot, she barked, "Hmph! You're a straight man of steel! How dare you insult me, Jiang He? I … I … "
After thinking for a long time, he still didn't know what to say.
He couldn't beat them.
He couldn't win against her even if he scolded her.
Furthermore …
Mu Wanqiu sat back down on the sofa, feeling her cheeks burning!
It was so embarrassing … why would I think of going anywhere else? What was so good about Jiang He? Aside from his good looks, the only good points he had were his strength, his humor, and his ability to earn money!
"I don't care! Hmph!"
…
He went upstairs.
Jiang He searched every bedroom.
When he found the bedroom with the 'vibrating bed', he found that … the blanket on the bed had been pulled away.
And there was a plate on the bedside table.
There was an eggplant that was over thirty centimeters long, a cucumber that was as thick as the eggplant, and an eighteen-centimeter carrot.
Jiang He's eyes bulged as he approached.
That …
That …
Why were the eggplant, cucumber, and carrot all so fresh and juicy?
Unable to hold back his rage as he looked at the bed, he yanked the blanket away and said, "Sora, I told you to cook, and you're actually sleeping here?"
Beneath the blanket, Sora's sleeping posture was very alluring.
Her maid attire, however, had a different kind of elegance.
She said weakly, "I'm warming your bed for you!"
"…"
Jiang He was at a loss for words. "I planted you so that you could cook, wash my pots, brew tea, massage my shoulders, and clean my house. The house is so warm, and I'm a rank-six pinnacle cultivator. My body is like a furnace, so why would I need you to warm my bed?"
Pointing at the three vegetables on the plate, he asked, "What's with these? Did you use them in secret? "
Sora was almost in tears.
She said sweetly, "I didn't use them. I just washed them and put them on the plate. Didn't you want to eat them, Master?"
Jiang He breathed a sigh of relief and took a bite of the carrot, barking, "Hurry up and get up. We have guests. Go make tea and cook!"
Warming his bed?
I think you're just trying to slack off …
"This maid is a little unreliable. She might not even know how to cook."
Jiang He shook his head helplessly. It seems that he would have to plant another kitchen maid, since the main idea of planting a maid was to cook and wash pots, and not something fancy.
He went downstairs from the second floor.
On the other hand, Sora carefully followed behind Jiang He.
Mu Wanqiu was thinking about something when she turned to look, and almost fell to the ground. Her eyes widened as she stared closely at Sora, her entire being a little dumbstruck, and a mysterious sense of loss arose in her heart.
Throwing the cucumber and eggplant to Sora, Jiang He said, "The rice is in the storehouse, and the seasonings are over there. Go get them yourself."
After giving his orders, he sat down on the couch across from Mu Wanqiu while munching on his carrot, smiling. "You can tell me now. What do you want?"
On the other hand, Mu Wanqiu stared at Sora curiously, watching as she left for the storehouse outside to carry the rice.
The fifty catties of rice …
Jiang He did not eat much.
Sora's small frame was very strenuous to carry it.
She carried the rice to the kitchen, and then went outside to get the seasonings …
Jiang He frowned, saying, "Her physique is a little weak. I'll have to feed her more cucumbers in the future!"
A look of disgust flashed across Mu Wanqiu's face when she heard the words' cucumbers' and then at Sora's maid costume. "Jiang He, I didn't expect you to be such a person!" she seethed through clenched teeth.
"She's just a weak girl, and you're making her do dirty and tiring work?"
"You have to take responsibility for her since she's living with you!"
Mu Wanqiu was furious.
"What?"
Jiang He was utterly confused. What are you arguing about?
He was at a loss for words. "Is it too much to hire a maid when I'm living alone in such a huge house? Moreover, is carrying a bag of rice considered dirty and tiring work? If she can't carry it, I'll think of a way to strengthen her physique so that she could carry it easily. "
"Maid?"
Mu Wanqiu clearly did not believe him. Who are you kidding?
She's even playing with her uniform, and you're telling me that she's a maid?
Jiang He glanced at Mu Wanqiu, not bothered to argue with her and said, "You're here today for beast-taming, right? How is it? Have you found a target? "
With that, Mu Wanqiu stopped mentioning the maid once they got down to business.
She then said, "I've looked up information about Ferals in Lingzhou City, and found a valley of snakes not far from the city. The python king there is rank-seven, and it commands a pack of pythons, with no lack of rank-six or rank-five pythons."
Eh?
Jiang He blinked and asked, "The valley of snakes … the one not far from the Ningdong Mines?"
"You know about the valley of snakes?"
Mu Wanqiu said. "That's right. The valley of snakes is not far from the Ningdong Mines, and the python king is around rank-seven intermediate. Still, there are too many of them, and we could pick a single target if you think it's a problem."
Jiang He appeared a little embarrassed and said, "No …"
"I've already killed the Leopard Python and flattened the valley of snakes. Isn't the information you've found a little outdated? Still, to tell the truth, the Leopard Python's meat is quite delicious. I'll get Sora to cook more for you later. "
