Chapter 143: Someone Has Invaded

Xia Cheng heard the movement of the spaceship landing and immediately ran out; he had been waiting for Ruan Mian to return.

And it was just as he was craning his neck in anticipation that the spaceship landed.

But this spaceship was an unfamiliar one.

A trace of scrutiny appeared in his eyes.

Following that, the spaceship's hatch opened, and a completely unfamiliar man walked out from inside.

Two youths of similar age stared at each other with wide eyes.

From the other's eyes, both saw intense wariness.

Just at this moment, the person over there, Lu Yi, spoke first, "Who are you! Where is Ruan?"

Ruan?

Xia Cheng's expression changed.

A surge of anger rose in his heart, and he wished he could sew this man's noisy mouth shut.

The corners of his mouth curled into a wicked smile.

"Shouldn't I be the one asking who you are? This is my home!"

His home?

Lu Yi was about to be driven mad with anger; it was simply unbelievable, where on earth did this man pop out from!

How could it possibly be his home!

His home!

"What kind of nonsense are you spouting!"

Lu Yi's body was shrouded in dense Mental Power.

He was no longer the frail and easily bullied person he once was; he had eaten the meals Ruan Mian made for so long.

After systematic study at the university, his Mental Power was now several times more powerful than before.

Facing him, Xia Cheng could feel the powerful Mental Power on him, and he didn't have much chance of winning if he went up against him.

But he did not want to back down.

The more formidable the opponent, the more Xia Cheng felt the blood in his body clamoring; his bloodthirsty instincts were boiling.

He wanted to tear off a piece of flesh.

Xia Cheng spread his hands, the malice on his face undisguised, provocative.

"If this isn't my home, could it be yours?"

Lu Yi was furious and immediately struck out with a palm, his Mental Power surging aggressively toward Xia Cheng.

He also gritted his teeth, grinding them until they clicked.

With excitement on his face, he was going to have a fierce fight with him!

Ruan Mian had a comfortable, good sleep at Huo Junze's house.

It wasn't until the next day that she woke up because she was hungry.

When she walked out, she saw the man sitting on the sofa working seriously; when she looked up, she happened to meet his gentle gaze.

"Awake?"

Ruan Mian, as if she had no bones, leaned against him and nestled into his arms.

"Why did you get up so early?"

Huo Junze put down what he was doing and gently smoothed her hair, his tone like he was coaxing a child.

"There are some things to handle; how did you sleep?"

Pressing against his arm, Ruan Mian nodded her head and hummed.

"I slept quite well, but I'm hungry."

His warm breath fell in little specks, "Shall I go make you something to eat?"

Ruan Mian couldn't help but be a little curious, "You can cook?"

Following his gaze, she saw a basket of fruit placed on the table, "I can learn if I don't know how, but for now, we might still have to eat the dishes you make."

She let out a low laugh.

She pinched his earlobe.

"You really know how to borrow flowers to offer to Buddha."

Ruan Mian took a look at the room, which was clean enough to reflect light; it was very large and full of a sense of technology.

It was a very good-looking house, but it just gave people a feeling of emptiness.

"Does your home have a kitchen..." she paused, needing to rephrase, "Are there any utensils for cooking?"

A smug smile appeared on Huo Junze's face.

"Having such an amazing girlfriend, as a boyfriend, of course I was prepared long ago!"

He took her hand and walked to the outer room, opening a door to reveal what was actually a kitchen inside.

There was a countertop, four stoves, as well as a dish cabinet and a sink.

It could be said that it was no different from the luxury kitchens in the TV dramas from before the apocalypse.

Even the dish cabinet was already stocked with bowls and chopsticks.

It was prepared very meticulously.

Ruan Mian was indescribably surprised.

"Is it nice? I consulted materials from the past to make these; if there is anything not quite right, tell me, and I will change it."

She turned around and tightly wrapped her arms around his waist.

"Huo Junze, why are you so good?"

Before he could say anything, she whispered with a clever smile, "Now you can learn; I'll teach you~"

There is no time like the present; today is the perfect day to teach him how to make food!

There weren't many ingredients, so she taught him how to boil a pot of rice porridge.

This was the fastest and simplest method.

After playing by Huo Junze's side for a day and a night and eating breakfast, she was about ready to head back; she still had a business to run!

Although she didn't earn much, it was her livelihood after all!

"I'll take you back."

"No need." Ruan Mian looked at the love-struck President Huo with some helplessness, stood on her tiptoes, and tapped his forehead. "Why would I need you to take me? If you were in ancient times, you would definitely be a muddled monarch, and I would be that bewitching empress."

"That wouldn't be bad either."

Not bad, my foot!

The expression on Mo Mishu's face looked like he was about to cry.

It was easy to imagine how much this secretary had to endure.

"You have to work hard; I don't want to have to find a new backer!"

Regardless, Ruan Mian still rejected his request to take her back, so Huo Junze had no choice but to arrange for two Simulation Humans to escort her.

After several space jumps, she was still vomiting until she felt like the world was spinning.

Vomiting her heart out.

This thing was truly too intense.

Just as she arrived outside her planet, she received a warning from Xiao Fang.

【Alarm! Alarm! Someone is invading! Someone is invading!】

What is going on!

Someone is actually invading!

Ruan Mian's expression became extremely tense; when did she provoke anyone else to have them enter her planet?

She hurriedly ordered the Simulation Humans, "Quick, quick, quick, land!"

The two Simulation Humans were combat-type Simulation Humans that Huo Junze had specially prepared because he was worried about her, and they were super powerful.

They were also her source of confidence.

"Yes, Master!"

Boom—the sound of the spaceship tore through the sky and landed steadily in front of her courtyard.

The two people who had been fighting intensely also stopped their movements due to this sudden change.

The cabin door opened, and the two combat-type Simulation Humans stepped out in a defensive stance.

The people who had clearly been fighting just a moment ago all shifted their defensive focus toward the people from the spaceship.

"Who are you people?!"

A familiar voice came over, and Ruan Mian, who had walked out from behind the two Simulation Humans, poked her head out to take a look.

Her gaze met the two people outside, and for a moment, both sides were stunned.

"Ah, Lu Yi, you're back!"

Seeing that it was Ruan Mian, both of them relaxed a little.

Two voices shouted out in unison.

"Ruan, you're back!"

"Sister! You're back!"

Ruan?

Sister?

The two of them looked at each other, their eyes filled with hostility.

Only then did Ruan Mian notice that both of their faces were bruised and battered, clearly having just had a fight.

It seemed there had been some kind of misunderstanding, right?!

Ruan Mian was surprised, "Xiao Fang said just now that someone was invading; it couldn't have been you two, could it?"
