Chapter 71

Xiaozhi Shuang is now very frightened.

When she got off work and returned home today, a sudden downpour drenched her clothes. So, as soon as she got back to her room, she went to the bathroom to change out of her wet clothes. Because she was in a hurry and it was her own room, she didn't bring a change of clothes with her. As a result, she is now completely naked, without a stitch of clothing on.

Being naked in her own room was not a problem, but what she didn't expect was that as soon as she came out of the bathroom, someone hugged her and covered her mouth. This left her mind blank, and for a moment, she even forgot to struggle.

"..." Li Mang also did not expect this situation. The faintly perfumed, delicate body in his hands made him stiff, with its smooth and lustrous skin making his mouth dry. His body, which had been cold from the rain, suddenly became hot.

"Umm... Umm..."

After the initial shock, Xiaozhi Shuang regained her senses and tried to scream, but her mouth was covered, and she couldn't make much noise. She tried to struggle, but Li Mang's arms were like steel, and she couldn't muster any strength. Finally, she used her only free part, her feet, to stomp down on the pervert's foot with all her might.

"Bang!"

"Bang!..."

Xiaozhi Shuang used all her strength. If it were an ordinary man, it would have hurt, but with Li Mang, this strength didn't even register, let alone cause pain. However, she didn't seem to notice and continued to stomp, even as her feet turned red. This was the only thing she could do... What a wise and chaste woman.

Li Mang also came to his senses. The heat in his body instantly turned to cold, as if he had been doused with a bucket of cold water. He awkwardly said, "...I'm not a bad person."

But clearly, Li Mang's explanation did not have the effect he expected. The sexy flight attendant in his arms did not stop struggling; instead, she struggled even harder.

Li Mang felt helpless but could only say in a hard voice, "Stop, I won't hurt you. I'm a member of the National Security Bureau's Special Operations Group. I came to Tianmen Village to carry out a confidential mission, but there are enemy informants in the village, so I had to find a place to hide. I didn't expect this to happen, and I'm very sorry."

Xiaozhi Shuang stopped struggling but remained tense, clearly not fully believing Li Mang's words. Because her mouth was covered, she couldn't speak, but she moved slightly.

"I'll let you go, but you can't scream. Nod if you agree." Li Mang's hard voice reached Xiaozhi Shuang's ears.

After hesitating for a moment, Xiaozhi Shuang nodded lightly. She had no choice.

Without further ado, Li Mang let her go and turned around, going to the bed to pick up a velvet blanket. Without turning back, he threw it behind him and remained silent.

"..." Xiaozhi Shuang, who was still thinking about what to do, now believed Li Mang's identity even more. She didn't make any extreme moves but quietly wrapped the blanket around herself tightly, like a wrapped zongzi.

Looking at Li Mang's back, Xiaozhi Shuang suddenly felt a sense of familiarity. His voice also seemed familiar, but she couldn't immediately recall where she had seen him. After all, it had been more than a day, and Li Mang had changed his appearance, with his body still wet and dirty.

"You... turn around!" Xiaozhi Shuang called out shakily.

Li Mang turned around as instructed, feeling awkward but maintaining a hard expression. He didn't know how to act in this situation. Should he smile apologetically and say sorry? That would be too servile and overly dramatic.

"It's you!" Xiaozhi Shuang immediately recognized Li Mang, as he had left a deep impression on her during the flight. After the shock, her suspicions resurfaced. This was too coincidental, and she had reason to suspect that Li Mang was deliberately following her. This made her heart race again, and the sound of thunder outside made her even more nervous, her face pale and pitiful, no longer as fierce as before.

"It is a coincidence. I was hiding by the roadside and saw you, so I followed you." Seeing her doubts, Li Mang explained proactively. He needed the cooperation of this beautiful flight attendant for the next period, so he had to dispel all her suspicions, or the consequences could be unpredictable.

"Do you have any proof of your identity?" Xiaozhi Shuang asked.

"This is my ID." Li Mang silently handed over his ID, which was not a Yanhuang ID but a National Security Bureau badge. He had prepared it before coming, intending to show it upon meeting, but things had turned out this way.

Xiaozhi Shuang took it with some doubt. She didn't know what a National Security Bureau ID looked like, but it didn't seem fake. More importantly, Li Mang's sincere attitude and cold, emotionless face gave her trust. In her subconscious, members of such a mysterious organization should be like this—mysterious and cold... She was no longer angry but became very curious about everything about Li Mang.

National Security Bureau Special Operations Group? This was a profession she had only seen on TV, and she never thought she would encounter it today. Xiaozhi Shuang felt a hidden excitement, but due to the awkwardness, she didn't feel comfortable asking anything.

"I have a special mission and need to hide here for a few hours. I hope this young lady can agree." Li Mang took the initiative to speak, shifting the topic to avoid the awkward atmosphere.

"What kind of mission?" Xiaozhi Shuang asked curiously.

"Sorry, it's a confidential mission... but it's related to the case of the missing poultry in your village." Li Mang's response was very wise.

Indeed, upon hearing that it was related to the case of the missing poultry in the village, Xiaozhi Shuang finally fully believed Li Mang's identity. Her curiosity overcame the previous awkwardness, and she asked with wide eyes, "My father said there's a monster. Is that true? Are there really strange and bizarre things in this world?"

"..." Li Mang wiped the water droplets from his hair. "I just arrived in your village, so I'm not clear about the details yet. I can't say more!"

"..." Flight attendants are generally very meticulous. Xiaozhi Shuang noticed that Li Mang was still wet and uncomfortable. After hesitating, she bit her lip and said, "Why don't you take a shower and change your clothes? There's a washing machine outside that can dry your clothes quickly... Then you should wrap yourself in the blanket."

As she spoke, Xiaozhi Shuang felt her cheeks flush. Oh my! Agreeing to let a man stay in her room was one thing, but inviting him to shower in her bathroom was another. Even with the blanket, the situation was very ambiguous, almost like a romantic encounter. She never even dared to think about such things, let alone dream about them.

"This... okay! But you can't tell anyone about me being in your room, not even your family. If it's exposed, it could endanger you." Li Mang instructed her seriously.

"Okay, I won't." Xiaozhi Shuang replied softly, her cheeks still pink.

After Li Mang entered the bathroom and she heard the water running, Xiaozhi Shuang finally dared to put down the blanket and expose her beautiful body again. She blushed as she put on her clothes.

The rain outside was heavy, almost drowning out the sound of the water in the bathroom. But for some reason, all Xiaozhi Shuang could hear was the water in the bathroom. Thinking about a naked man showering, she felt a mix of embarrassment and strange emotions, her body instinctively heating up, making her bury her head under the blanket in shame.

"Knock knock!"

"Knock knock!"

At first, Xiaozhi Shuang didn't hear it, but on the second knock, she finally realized it was a knock on the door. Her face turned pale, and her beautiful face was filled with panic.
