Chapter 694: Chapter 692: Hold Her in My Arms!
Yuan Mansion.
At first hearing the name, Sally thought it might be a rather luxurious estate, but it turned out to be a simple two-story building, roughly seventy square meters in size. The decor inside was nothing but black and white, devoid of any excess ornamentation.
Sally looked around the empty living room, the floor gleaming back at her.
“Hmm… it’s pretty clean.”
“I usually stay in hotels, I hardly ever stayed here.”
Lacking everything, it might as well be a hotel … Sally surveyed the house and noticed a refrigerator in the kitchen.
Her eyes lit up, as she was now quite the foodie, feeding two with one mouth.
However, when she opened the refrigerator, she was dumbfounded!
All that was inside was a bottle of red wine and two cigarettes.
“…” Who keeps cigarettes in the refrigerator while living normally!
“000, how long have you been single?” Sally took the cigarettes out and tossed them into the trash can. Then she took out a bunch of ingredients from the System Space and arranged them inside.
“Different worlds have different time flows; it’s hard to calculate.” Yan Ze picked up the cigarettes Sally had thrown away.
Looking up again, he was stunned to find the refrigerator stuffed full of various ingredients by Sally.
Sally used the System Map to scan the house and found only one master bedroom upstairs; the guest room had been turned into a study filled with books. “Well then, I’m heading upstairs to sleep, suit yourself.”
Yan Ze: “Um… I am the master, right?”
“I didn’t say you weren’t, but I am pregnant! And this house has only one bedroom. You surely can’t expect a pregnant woman to sleep on the living room floor or on the bookshelves in the study.”
“A Host of the Offspring System in a pregnant state is at her strongest physically.”
“Mentally, a pregnant woman is very fragile and needs to be well cared for, primarily protected.”
“…”
Sally continued inspecting the house, “You seem to like the black and white style a lot.”
“What style do you like?” Yan Ze opened the System’s virtual screen, ready to make changes immediately.
Sally said, “It should at least feel warm. But since this is your place, I’ll just stay temporarily. You should stick to what you like. By the way, does the crew have any arrangements tomorrow?”
“Yes. This season’s sponsor is a horse ranch brand. We’re going to the ranch tomorrow to shoot the show. Can you ride horses?”
“I can, but I’m pregnant.” Sally went upstairs without turning back.
“…”
After enjoying a nice bath, Sally changed the bedding to a soft, warm, and cute velvet duvet in a pale yellow.
To prevent any night invasions by a lecher, Sally transformed back into her Beast Body, a little white mouse.
“Thump thump—” There was a knock on the door.
Sally responded, “What is it?”
“I’ll just take a shower, it will be quick.”
The house only had one bathroom, which was connected to the master bedroom.
Sally took out a stack of Dust-Cleaning Charms from the Space Ring, then hopped off the bed and walked to the door to open it.
“This can clean your body too.” She put down the Dust-Cleaning Charm.
“Bang!” Sally closed the door again, turned off the light, and went to bed.
Yan Ze picked up the Dust-Cleaning Charm, reminiscing about the little white mouse who had just opened the door, wearing a floral nightgown and a floral sleeping cap!
“Heh~” he smiled softly and walked away.
…
As dawn broke, Sally woke up hungry.
She rubbed her eyes, transformed back into human form, and took out the food Xiaomei had prepared for her from the System Space, then walked down to the terrace.
They prepared to enjoy the sunrise while having their meal.
Someone had already taken the spot on the terrace, a cigarette hanging from their mouth and a bottle of red wine in hand.
Sally was momentarily stunned, then she pushed open the terrace door and walked over, “You really know how to enjoy life.”
“Would you like a drink?” Yan Ze snuffed out his cigarette and took a wine glass from System Space, “A wine worth 500 Cosmic Points.”
Sally’s eyes widened instantly!
“Yes, definitely!” What kind of wine is this expensive!
“I can pour it myself, don’t be polite.” Sally took the glass and poured for herself.
Yan Ze looked at her floral pajamas, “Why aren’t you in your mouse form anymore?”
“I like being human when I eat.” Sally took out dish after dish from the space, as well as Heaven and Earth Treasure Juice.
“I won’t just drink your wine for free, I’ll contribute some dishes.” Sally handed him a set of utensils, “Please.”
“…Hehe, now I even have a meal to eat.” Yan Ze picked up the chopsticks and grabbed a piece of green vegetable.
Sally was surprised, “You don’t like meat?”
“Well, there’s a pregnant lady here, best to prioritize her with the good stuff.” Yan Ze smiled.
Sally chuckled, “Eating together is better. Try this plate of Dragon Fish, it’s Uncle Xiang’s specialty, and Little Miqi’s favorite.” 𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒑𝒖𝒃.𝙘𝙤𝒎
Yan Ze took a sip of water, then slowly tasted a piece of the fish… Finally, he nodded, “Indeed, the ingredients are well-utilized.”
Sally raised her glass and also took a sip of wine, unsure if it was her lack of wine knowledge or something else, but she couldn’t taste anything special.
[Xiaomei, check this wine, is there anything special about it?]
[No, I suggest the host might want to drink more Heaven and Earth Treasure Juice.]
“Why is it worth 500 Cosmic Points?” Sally asked Yan Ze.
Yan Ze replied, “I brewed it myself.”
“…Got it, similar to brand premium pricing!” Sally blinked her eyes, then took another sip, “Rich and full-bodied, with a sweet aftertaste that carries a hint of bitterness, it has a unique flavor of time sedimentation.”
“It’s brewed from ordinary ingredients, so it doesn’t contain any special energies.” Yan Ze swirled the wine in his glass, it glowed ruby-red in the rising sun’s light, dazzling and eye-catching.
Sally was momentarily dazed, raised her glass, and clinked it with his, “Thank you for the wonderful wine.”
She drank it down in one go.
Yan Ze was stunned: “…”
Sally put the wine glass aside, then started to devour the feast on the table with great relish.
Seeing her enjoying the food, Yan Ze couldn’t help but start to eat as well.
In the end, he ate quite a lot.
“I’m full! I’m going to sleep now.” Sally burped~
“…”
“Almost forgot, I still have work to do.” Sally finally remembered she had taken a job as an amateur female guest, “What time do I go to the racetrack?”
“The crew will prepare props in the morning, you should be there before three in the afternoon, and shooting starts at three-thirty.”
“Oh, then I can sleep a bit more.”
Sally took out a Dust-Cleaning Charm, cleaned up the utensils, and stored them back in the Space Ring, “You’re a great actor, so you must be busy. See you at the racetrack. Oh, and remember our agreement!” She crooked one finger to signify one Cosmic Point.
Yan Ze suddenly pulled her close into his arms, “Hmm, I remember, I’ll definitely feed you well!”
Sally jumped in surprise, “I’m already full, I don’t need it now.”
“I need… to keep the promise!” Yan Ze kissed her lips, plundering the sweetness between them.
Xiaomei’s Offspring System suddenly went into a forceful update state…
