It's okay for me to bully my wife for the sake of the young master's dignity, right?

Chapter 377 [026] Ironing Girl

Qin Jiandan left Xiao Xia in the dressing room temporarily, and while drying her hair and body with a towel, she walked to the lounge outside.

After the Wangyou incident, Qin Jiandan felt that it was too shameless to use the Flying Dragon Dark Pattern as an excuse to practice dual cultivation without any bottom line. As long as the situation was not too urgent, he should try to restrain himself.

Moreover, after Linlin's knee pillow experiment, she found that mild mental pleasure can also slow down the high-dimensional attacks of the Time Devourer. Since dual cultivation in a broad sense includes quiet appreciation, there is no need to be so rough every time.

The lounge was of moderate size, with soft cushions on the floor, which was very comfortable to walk on barefoot. Two sofas were placed on the same side of the room, next to a refrigerator for drinks and a low coffee table. The automatic tea maker exhaled steam, and the air was filled with a faint tea fragrance.

There was a small desk and a matching chair on the other side of the room. Fengjian did not change her Sukumizu. She folded the towel and put it on her head, staring intently at the recording device.

"The search yielded results, but unfortunately they were disappointing."

Kazama raised her face from above the recording machine, water droplets dripped from the tips of her silver hair, slid down her neck into the collar of her navy blue swimsuit, leaving a trail of wet marks, like morning dewdrops rolling on flower petals.

"I have Darknet data from eight years ago in my inventory, but none of the data matches the target ID that Linlin told me."

The design of the Sukushige was simple, without too much decoration, but it perfectly set off her slender limbs and petite figure. Her silver hair gained weight after getting wet, and a few strands of it stuck to her cheeks disobediently, adding a bit of innocence and cuteness to her.

"I can expand the search range, but the results are not optimistic. Darknet is often destroyed by companies, and a lot of data is lost during the destruction and reconstruction. It is possible that the previous hacker missed the target ID data when backing up."

Focusing her attention on the recorder again, Kazama, who was wearing a swimsuit instead of her daily secretary outfit, behaved a little childishly. She even unconsciously swung her two little feet under the desk, letting water drip from her pink toes - of course, this behavior might just be for dehydration.

"Isn't there any here from the Fallen Cherry Blossom Group..." Qin Jiandan was a little disappointed. He wiped his swollen chest muscles with the towel in his hand and tried not to listen to the sound of Vale splashing water in the bathhouse.

"Master Fufufu, here I come! Why don't you lie down on the sofa and let me give you a massage to relax you!"

Xiao Xia, who had fully recovered her spirit, rushed out of the dressing room, wearing only an oversized white shirt and barefoot. She jumped lightly on the soft mat and jumped to Qin Jiandan in two or three steps.

Qin Jiandan stretched out a hand to prevent the thinly dressed Xiao Xia from getting closer. The hem of her white shirt just covered her thighs. Xiao Xia's natural curly red hair was still wet, casually draped over her shoulders, with a few strands of hair playfully sticking to her forehead.

"Why are there such large shirts in the dressing room?"

Xiao Xia was surprised and said, "Of course it's for the young master! It's common sense to wear new clothes after taking a bath, right? Didn't the young master look carefully at those wardrobes?"

Qin Jiandan nodded. Such thoughtful preparations should be attributed to Fengjian.

"Of course it's comfortable to wear new clothes. But as a young master, I can't change my style of clothing casually. In the Earth era, there was a man named Jobs who always wore the same clothes at company press conferences to increase his recognition."

"I also need to increase my recognizability. The Night Dragon Society doesn't have uniforms, shoulder straps, or anything like that. If the soldiers can't recognize me at a distance during a battle, confusion may occur."

"I'm only changing my underwear. Xiaoxia, please use the ultrasonic cleaner to clean the gray vest, black short-sleeved tights, and trousers that I took off earlier. There's no need for a massage or anything like that."

Xiao Xia's vitality immediately dimmed as if it had been hit by frost:
"What? Isn't an ultrasonic cleaner commonly known as a 'sonic iron'? Young Master, are you willing to let someone as young and beautiful as me iron my clothes?"

Feng Jian, who was sitting behind the desk, raised the corners of her delicate mouth slightly: "Miss, go and do it. Isn't there an old saying: Only after you have ironed a man's clothes can you become a real woman?"

"That's too old! It must have been said by a trilobite from the Cretaceous period!"

Xiao Xia took the drink from the refrigerator angrily and gulped it down her throat. She drank it so fast without worrying about getting a stomachache. After finishing the drink, she really went back to the dressing room to iron her clothes.

Fengjian did not correct Xiaoxia's mistake - trilobites had become extinct at the end of the Permian period and did not survive to the Cretaceous period.

Through the sliding door of the dressing room, Qin Jiandan heard Xiao Xia rummaging through the boxes to find the ultrasonic cleaner and Qin Jiandan's clothes, and then ironing them on the bench. Through the door, he could also see Xiao Xia's frown and disgusted expression.

"Master, there is a new situation."

Feng Jian placed the video recorder slightly on the desk and asked Qin Jiandan to come over and take a look. Qin Jiandan stood beside Feng Jian and looked down at the video recorder screen on the desk. The tiny text and the ubiquitous interference codes made Qin Jiandan a little overwhelmed, so he had to bend down even lower.

The screen was obviously the forum interface of Darkspace.com. At the bottom of the discussion thread where Linlin posted her request for help, someone provided the latest clue.

"Let's go find a guy on the forum whose nickname is 'Master of the Sutra Collection'. He has an incurable habit of hoarding data. Whether it's forum data from 8 or 10 years ago, he must have it."

Fengjian slowly dragged the slider of the discussion thread, allowing Qin Jiandan to roughly see the content of the hackers' discussion.

Qin Jiandan remembered that Fengjian was very bothered by Xiaoxia's behavior of peeking at the recorder. Now that the loli staff officer was so generous in sharing the screen of the recorder, it could be said that she expressed considerable trust in him.

Qin Jiandan couldn't quite understand the hackers' professional terms, so he leaned over and his eyes involuntarily shifted from the screen of the recorder to Fengjian's profile.

A few strands of silver lightly draped over the loli's ears, and as she operated the recorder, a faint fragrance was emitted, intertwined with the evaporating water vapor, creating a relaxing and pleasant atmosphere. Occasionally, a few water droplets brushed across her snow-white skin, gently slid down Fengjian's slender neckline, and mysteriously disappeared at the edge of her swimsuit.

Qin Jiandan was a little embarrassed. He stood up straight, trying to get rid of the spontaneous feeling of love and the delicate scent mixed with water vapor, detergent and the girl's body fragrance.

"In short, as long as we find this 'Master of the Sutra Repository', we should be able to get the information we want, right?" Qin Jiandan said, "You pay attention to it, and I will let Linlin pay attention to it too."

Feng Jian, who had a towel on his head, looked a little silly. "I have already exchanged opinions with Linlin through private messages on the forum. We will continue to pay attention. Young Master can go to the site of the Sorrow Cloud Group to inspect the work as originally planned."

"Well, you all did a good job today." Qin Jiandan nodded in approval. He walked towards the changing room, intending to put on the clothes that Xiaoxia had ironed.

As a result, there was a sudden sound of fighting in the dressing room. Vale, who had just finished taking a bath alone, had a conflict with Xiao Xia after walking out of the bathhouse.

"What are you doing with the omelette pants? There must be some ulterior motive for using a strange instrument to collect smells!"

"Who is as sensitive to smells as you? Open your dog eyes and look, this is an ultrasonic cleaner! You must be jealous that I am qualified to iron the young master's clothes!"

"Wang Wang!"

"Ahhh, young master, save me! Rabies vaccine, I need a lot of rabies vaccine!"

※※※

After the farce in the dressing room, Vale took the initiative to show her goodwill to Xiaoxia. The two sat sideways on the sofa, one in front and one behind. After blow-drying her hair, Vale helped Xiaoxia tie a side ponytail.

"Hmph, I didn't know you were so good at braiding your hair." Xiao Xia picked up another bottle of drink and drank it.

"Don't underestimate the fineness of the hair of the Furui people." Vale's fingers are as nimble as octopus tentacles. "It's much easier to braid a human's hair. When I was itching to show off my skills, I asked Mu Yue to be the model, but unfortunately she immediately dismantled my artwork as soon as she left the dormitory. She's so ruthless."

Qin Jiandan immediately imagined Mu Yue's various braided hairstyles. Although not as classic as long straight black hair, it must be beautiful too.

The electronic clock on the wall pointed to 20 p.m. Qin Jiandan, who had already put on his clothes, said, "It's almost time to leave for the Sorrow Cloud Group. As long as I get a driver, I can go alone. Xiaoxia, you can stay with Vale and play with braiding your hair."

Xiao Xia became anxious. She suddenly jumped off the sofa, and the thing under her white shirt began to move. It was small and cute.

"I don't want to be a Barbie doll for Vale! I said I would go with the young master to inspect the work, so I must go!"

Considering that Xiao Xia's efficiency in handling government affairs is lower than that of a paralyzed paramecium, Qin Jiandan agreed to take her along. Valei was even more energetic. She boasted that she had night vision and did not need to turn on the headlights when driving at night.

"You'd better turn on the lights." Qin Jiandan said, "We are going to conduct a surprise inspection of the Chouyun Group, not to launch a surprise attack on the Chouyun Group. There is no need to drive so stealthily. Besides, if you don't turn on the headlights, other cars won't be able to see you. What if they hit us?"

At this moment, Jiang Chouyun, who was supervising the canal water purification in District 12, didn't know that the leader of the Falling Cherry Blossom Team, who was bullying others, was about to check his work...
