A Man in Another World: The Yellow-Haired Warrior Who Infiltrated Pure Love

"As for..."

Left with no other option, Yuan Hua had to stop the chase and pick up the book first.

There was no other way; if these books were lost, Feisheng would surely kill him.

Although the books in the Prison of the Demonic Index can be reassembled if they are lost, it takes at least ten days to half a month to reassemble a single book, not to mention that there are more than one here.

Life is precious, life is precious...

"I'll help you."

Just as Yuan Hua was picking up the books, a pair of fair, small hands touched his...

"Ok?"

Yuan Hua looked up and saw Selena looking at him with a smile...

"Actually, I am..."

"It's okay, two people are always more efficient than one."

Selena quickly picked up the books from the ground and put them into Yuan Hua's suitcase.

"It's not some strenuous or heavy physical work, I can help with this little favor."

"Well, thank you."

Yuan Hua closed his suitcase, pulled up the handle, and stood up.

"I'll go and coax her. She's so temperamental; she can't be left uncoaxed."

"But I'm in a bad mood too, why don't you come and comfort me..."

Selena looked at Yuan Hua pitifully, but her bruised and swollen face, which had been beaten by Catherine, was truly hilarious.

"You are a strong girl."

Yuan Hua helped Selena up and put the ointment into her hand.

"I'll be going now; it's my duty."

After saying this, Yuan Hua became visibly aroused...

……

"for you."

Yuan Hua placed the warm milk tea next to Catherine.

"Humph!"

Catherine's anger had long since subsided, but her proud and aloof personality prevented her from fully controlling herself...

"You've seen everything, how am I ever going to get married?"

"Then I won't marry her."

Yuan Hua placed his hand on Catherine's shoulder, pulling her closer.

"Let me take a good look at you. How can you be angry with such a pretty little face? Honestly, you don't look good with a long face."

"I don't need your help~"

Catherine's tone softened slightly...

"I can manage myself."

"That won't do, aren't I your little follower?"

Yuan Hua gently pinched Catherine's cheek.

"What kind of little follower would pinch their master's cheek..."

Catherine turned her head away somewhat shyly...

"Huh, why are you calling me master?"

Yuan Hua simply picked Catherine up in a princess carry!

(P.S.: The suitcase is temporarily stored in the darkroom.)

"What are you doing? Put me down right now, there are so many people here." (whispering)

Catherine was horrified!

"What did you say? I didn't hear you!"

Yuan Hua simply pretended not to hear and carried Catherine away from the riverbank...

"I observed the stars last night, and the weather should be pretty good tomorrow. This spot is nice, want to come fishing?"

In this other world, there aren't many factories or water purification plants. The water system in the bathrooms is created by digging underground sewers, allowing river water to flow under the houses, and finally condensing the groundwater elements through the magic array to provide drinking water.

So basically no one throws things into the river, and the water is very clear and clean.

"Put me down first, then we can talk..."

Catherine buried her head in Yuan Hua's arms, covering her face with her hands, as if afraid of running into acquaintances on the street.

"And I don't know how to fish."

"It's okay, you can learn. I can teach you."

Yuan Hua pretended not to hear and continued walking down the street with Catherine in his arms...

"As expected, I still can't easily forgive you, you seemingly upright but actually wicked guy."

Catherine had resigned herself to her fate, closed her eyes, and leaned against Yuan Hua's chest...

"You'll always stand by my side, right?"

"Um……"

……

Catherine had a sweet dream. In her dream, she and Yuan Hua started a family, had a lovely daughter, and lived a very comfortable life...

Until one day, she saw a Selena with dyed blonde hair...

"hiss----"

Catherine was startled awake!

"Hmm? Are you home yet?"

Looking at the empty room, Catherine felt a sudden, inexplicable panic...

No, no, we still need to be wary of Selena. The saying "beware of fire, theft, and best friends" is really not just empty talk...

"Damn it... Selena, are you ready to be tortured by me...?"

Catherine gritted her teeth...

"Speaking of which, where did Yuan Hua go?"

"..."

After a moment of silence, Catherine lay back down...

"He's nobody to me, and he has such a terrible personality. I don't like him at all, so why bother with him..."

"..."

Do you believe this yourself?

……

"Mrs. Dorellie, the deadline has passed. Where is the information I requested?"

Yuan Hua put on a bamboo hat and went to the room where Du Laili had been waiting for a long time.

"My lord, I have finally made some progress these past two days by constantly pushing Brook's body to its limits."

Dorley was still very protective of her life, and she revealed all the information she knew in one go.

"This afternoon, Brooke and I met with another official. Judging from Brooke's respectful manner, he may be a high-ranking member of the hawkish rebellion."

"Um……"

Yuan Hua nodded slightly...

Is this all the progress?

"I'm sorry, sir, Brooke cannot trust me too much in the short term."

Dori lowered her head in fear...

"Alright, at least there's some progress, which means you're still usable. For now, you'll have to take care of your own life."

"Thank you, sir."

Yuan Hua slowly closed his eyes, his mental energy rapidly spreading outwards. After confirming that there was nothing amiss, he turned and left.

"What's that official's name?"

"Reporting to Your Excellency, it is Grand Duke Hughes."

"..."

Yuan Hua paused, he vaguely remembered the name; Torreya had mentioned it when they were in the carriage.
