Episode 8: Darkened Henrietta: The Commander is mine, he belongs only to me.

Very good, the sound of running water has indeed stopped. Although she couldn't see it clearly, Shen Xin could feel it even through the thick blanket.

That was the sound of the company's bare feet stepping on the floor, leaving water stains.

Each kick sounded so powerful and strong, each kick conveyed a sense of excitement and groundedness within him.

He couldn't even imagine what it would feel like if that kick were landed on him.

She'll probably faint.

The bed in the bedroom is large enough for three people to lie down.

I could clearly feel a force pressing down on the side of the bed. That weight must be the weight of the company, no doubt about it!

Then there is no more then.

Her body was not touched, and the scene she had imagined and envisioned—the blanket being suddenly and forcefully pulled back—did not occur.

What, what on earth is going on?

Time ticked by, but there was still no movement. I felt a little disappointed, but more than that, I was worried.

The company...could it have gone abroad? That doesn't make sense.

Unable to contain her curiosity, she secretly lifted the blanket over her head a little with her fingers, then exhaled. Slowly, she lifted the blanket bit by bit, swaying her waist as if she were a butterfly shedding its skin.

I pushed off with my legs, and then my body floated slightly in the air, afraid of disturbing the company that might be lying next to me on the bed.

After Shen Xin painstakingly finished all of this, his expression began to reveal a look that could only be described as speechless.

The company was lying on the edge of the bed, sleeping quietly.

The shimmering moonlight filtering through the window bathed the company in its glow.

Her long eyelashes were still damp with water droplets. In her deep sleep, she had lost her former domineering aura and instead gained a touch of cuteness, along with the gentleness and grace of a young girl.

She was smiling, a smile that looked so sweet and happy. She must have been having a wonderful dream. It's safe to say she had just finished praying by her bedside, waiting for the angel Manju to send the small business over.

Faced with such a naive and unsuspecting company, Shen Xin didn't have many thoughts for a moment, and could only sigh deeply.

“If I were to attack her now, I would be nothing short of a beast and an animal.”

Her heart softened for a moment, and she picked up the blanket from the bed and tiptoed to the company's side, trying to keep her footsteps as light as possible. While wrapping the company in the blanket, she tried to be gentle and slow, so as not to wake her.

After doing all this, Shen Xin felt as if she had accomplished something great, and a sense of pride inexplicably rose within her. Perhaps, this was pure love?

Having never been in a relationship before, I never imagined that at this moment I would truly experience the sweet fruit of the purest and most sincere love. This feeling is unforgettable.

I lay back down on the bed, wrapped myself tightly in the blanket, and felt warm and cozy inside and out.

I'm sure I'll be able to get a good night's sleep tonight, right?

Unfortunately, this was just Shen Xin's personal opinion.

Five minutes later, he opened his eyes and sensed that something was wrong.

For no apparent reason, suddenly, a huge mountain appeared in my body, which had been moving as smoothly as if on flat ground. Instead of feeling sleepy, my blood was boiling and churning like a kettle, constantly releasing steam.

Meanwhile, the red blood cells in the blood, like a swarm of locusts with eyes bulging with hunger, saw a lush green field of crops and began to frantically gather in the little brother's base camp, piling up this mountain and making it even bigger.

"This...this isn't right, is it?"

Shen Xin's eyes widened, sensing that something was wrong. He subconsciously glanced at the company next to the bed.

She was still sleeping so soundly, completely unsuspecting, while he himself had become a live volcano that could erupt at any moment.

"How about... we give it a try? She... she won't be angry, will she?"

Shen Xin turned his head, his back to the company, lost in a painful struggle and hesitation.

Trying to cool down with the cold walls, unfortunately, the blood not only failed to disperse but also congealed even more firmly due to the sudden chill.

This has backfired. What should we do? What should we do?

At this moment, Shen Xin felt like an ant on a hot pan, her feet constantly rubbing together in a state of turmoil.

Will she get angry? Help! Someone, help me! Or maybe... just a quick kiss? Should I try it out first?

But I'm afraid I won't be able to stop!

At this moment, I really wish I had the ability to read minds. The turmoil and pain I felt at this moment were even more unbearable than when I was dying of cancer before I time-traveled.

Under the moonlight, a shadow suddenly wriggled and climbed onto Shen Xin's body.

At this moment, my heart was so excited it felt like it was about to jump out of my chest.

"No way? Really? Has the company woken up? Has the company somehow sensed something and noticed?"

Pressing hard against his chest, he tried to calm himself down. In the dead of night, he could hear his own heart pounding so loudly. If the company noticed this, he would probably be reprimanded.

I'm a man after all, I need to show my masculine and domineering side.

After making up her mind, the moment she turned over, before she could even see who had climbed on top of her, her mouth was tightly covered.

All I could see was a pair of eyes flashing red, and then my vision was completely obscured by black stockings.

Although the stockings were quite thin, the indoor lighting wasn't very good, and the curtains had been drawn at some point, so all I could see was a wriggling black shadow.

Suddenly, my pelvis was pressed down deeply by an inexplicable force.

This action... this shouldn't be a business.

Shen Xin suddenly opened her eyes, sensing that something was wrong.

If it were a company, they certainly wouldn't be so gentle; their bones would probably be shattered by now. Moreover, based on common business sense, she would never do something like that.

If a company were to handle this, it would most likely be like Jia Baoyu's awkward and stiff first visit to Granny Liu's dilapidated hut.

But now, it is clear that it is the Dragon Knight Yin Zhiping fighting against the Little Dragon Girl, while he himself is the Little Dragon Girl who is bound and has some expectations, but has already realized that the target is wrong.

Furthermore, the wind constantly blowing in through the window confirms that the monster that is mistaking itself for a proton collider has clearly sneaked in through the window.

Who exactly is it?

Are you kidding me? This is the 7th floor! Did you climb in on foot? Are you kidding me? Which ship girl in the port has such strength?

No, we absolutely must find out, at the very least, who the other party is!

Shen Xin shook her head desperately, finally managing to rub off some of the stockings covering her eyes.

Seeing that their identities were about to be exposed, the other party not only did not stop, but instead accelerated their attack.

These waves of force made Shen Xin clearly feel that she was constantly enduring the attacks of the Bone-Melting Palm, a martial arts masterpiece.

I feel like my bones are about to be turned to water.

"Ara~ Commander~ It seems you listened to me and took your medicine properly?"

Her long, light blue hair flowed like water, while her pair of glowing crimson eyes rhythmically danced in mid-air in the darkness.

"Medicine??? Could it be...?"

Shen Xin then remembered that the abnormality in her body was caused by the pill that the company had given her before she went to sleep.

Strictly speaking, the pill was provided by Helena.

"You really do hesitate at times like this~ You're so cute~ The Commander is mine, he belongs only to me, Helena!"

Episode 9: Why are you so close to Cleveland?

The waves, carried by the wind, blow into the harbor, bringing a salty-sweet smell.

"Hmm hmm hmm~"

Helena happily hugged the sheets, humming a cheerful tune, and began to hang them out to dry.

"Helena, you seem very happy? Did something good happen?"

Like a curious child, New Jersey suddenly popped out, pouting into an adorable bunny shape, and started squeezing Helena's shoulders hard.

Although she was startled by the sudden appearance of New Jersey, the comfortable feeling on her shoulder that dispelled her stiffness quickly brought a blush to Helena's cheeks.

"Ah~ Of course it's a good thing~ Because being the commander's personal secretary makes every day happy and blissful."

"Yes, speaking of which, New Jersey seems like a good fit for the commander's secretary or wife, but... New Jersey is just too clumsy."

"It's okay~ This position is not fixed. I believe that one day you will be able to take on this great and glorious job."

Helena gently comforted her.

"Yes, yes, New Jersey will definitely be fine! After all, I am the biggest and strongest Black Dragon in the White Eagles! I will definitely make Honey fall in love with me!"

New Jersey jumped around happily, then noticed something unusual about the sheets hanging out to dry.

"Huh? Helena, is this because it wasn't washed clean, or was the pattern already there?"

New Jersey pointed curiously to a large patch of red spread out on the bed sheet.

"Secret~"

Helena's tone grew increasingly cheerful and gentle, as if she were recalling happy memories.

When Shen Xin woke up, the company was already gone, and she couldn't resist Helena's sweet words at all, so she was forced to wash up.

Following Helena, we arrived at the grocery store, where Tennessee, California, and Wasp were unloading their goods.

"These are for tonight's party~ Commander, thank you for your hard work~"

Tennessee patted the commander on the shoulder happily.

"Eh???"

Shen Xin looked at the mountain of boxes in front of her, and her legs began to tremble.

Following behind Helena, carrying the box, my arms were going numb.

"Why...why do I still have to do manual labor...?"

Shen Xin complained.

"This is necessary training and practice; there's no other way..."

Helena looked slightly worried and somewhat distressed.

"After all, only a strong commander can guide us forward better, and we cannot miss any opportunity that can help improve the commander's strength."

"That's true..."

Normally it wouldn't be a problem, but last night I not only didn't get enough sleep, but I also clearly felt a weakness in my lower body from time to time. When I got up this morning, I even had some difficulty getting out of bed, so having to carry things myself is really asking too much of me.

After finally managing to move all the snacks and drinks, Shen Xin collapsed to the ground like a deflated balloon.

Helena squinted her face, bent down to hand over a glass of water, and gently fanned a sweet breeze with her hand.

After calming down for a while, Shen Xin looked at Helena, who was still fanning her, and suddenly thought of something.

"Helena... um..."

Shen Xin was about to say something, but suddenly lowered her head and looked at the corner of the wall to the side, hesitating to speak.

"You want to ask about what happened last night, right?"

Helena was still smiling, and her tone sounded very casual, as if she didn't care at all about what happened last night.

"Uh...yes..."

Shen Xin hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"You want to ask why I did that, right?"

Looking down at Helena as she crossed her legs and walked with a cat-like gait, her black stockings gently rubbed against her, creating a few beautiful sparks.

"Commander, have you ever read Dream of the Red Chamber?"

Helena didn't answer Shen Xin's question directly, but instead asked a question that sounded rather strange.

"I know a little..."

Although Shen Xin had some doubts, she still answered honestly.

"Then, I would like to ask the Commander, is the relationship between Xiren and Baoyu clear?"
