The most destitute time in Mr. Nie's life was when he was kidnapped.

But perhaps it was precisely because he was someone who had never experienced physical pain and couldn't bear hardship that he fainted on the spot.

From childhood to adulthood, he has always had at least one servant by his side. He once came to the mainland, and Wade accompanied him the whole time, even tidying up and hanging up his underwear for him. He didn't have to do anything himself.

He had never worn tattered clothes before, especially not in front of his wife. As someone who valued his image, he was now in a terrible state.

It also makes me look really stupid.

The way his wife looked at him was as if she were looking at an unparalleled idiot.

Finally, she asked, "Have you taken a shower?"

Nie Zhao shook his head. There were no bath towels or pajamas, and even the slippers were recycled slippers that had been worn by countless people. He dared not wash them.

"Take a shower first. I'll get you your clothes. By the way, I'm staying at Li Xia's place tonight." Chen Rou opened the door and emphasized, "I've already made plans with her, and the place you're staying is... very safe."

You see, Boss Nie had just broken his fast and was in high spirits.

Hearing his wife say such things, he felt a deep, heartbreaking sorrow, but he still said, "OK."

It's 11 p.m. now, which is when the hotel's water usage is at its highest. Although Nie Zhao got a special exception and can get 24-hour hot water, the overall infrastructure level on the mainland is what it is. In a little while, everyone will be surprised.

He stood silently for a moment, and when he heard his wife come upstairs and open the door, he originally intended to see her off first.

But just as Chen Rou pushed open the door, a thought suddenly popped into his mind. He was going to take a shower, and she couldn't just leave without saying goodbye. She would definitely have to wait for him to finish before leaving. So... In the blink of an eye, Boss Nie ripped off his belt, took off his shirt, and without even bothering to take off his T-shirt, turned on the shower and started tearing off his T-shirt.

With a snap, he ripped two large pieces off his T-shirt, turning it into a rag.

But when he heard a hissing sound above his head and looked up, cold water was already being poured over his head.

Mr. Nie's explosive temper was about to burst, and he was about to complain, but as soon as he turned around, a pair of warm wrists wrapped around his neck. It was his wife, and her lips were already kissing him.

There was another rushing sound above my head, followed by a spray of cold water and then scalding hot water.

When Mr. Nie kissed his wife's lips, he found that they were as hot and fiery as the water coming out of the shower.

So even though he performed poorly at first, she didn't laugh at him, hate him, or despise him. She cared for him and pampered him like a child. But at the same time, she loved him as a man, just like any other woman would love a man.

Without a second thought, Boss Nie picked up his wife and slammed her against the wall.

...

Chen Rou left the hotel at 10:30.

If you go out at this time, you obviously can't come back to sleep.

Chen Rou was quite surprised because Boss Nie had performed very well today, lasting at least ten minutes and not being too rough. So, apart from the pain, Chen Rou didn't experience any other discomfort.

To say it was fun, or brought her pleasure, would probably be a little bit.

All that was left was discomfort and pain, but thankfully, Chen Rou was naturally strong and was not afraid of pain.

She held the keys to her Mercedes, even though she could drive airplanes and tanks. Although she didn't have a driver's license now, she knew she would in the future, and her driving skills were excellent. She was also more used to driving on the mainland, so she planned to drive back herself. However, she forgot one thing: on this land, there were many greedy, cunning, ignorant, and barbaric people, but they were only a minority. The vast majority of people were simple and kind, hardworking and enthusiastic, and were the most peaceful and trustworthy people in the world.

It's drizzling tonight, foggy and damp, and the wind is bone-chillingly cold.

It was almost 11 p.m., and there were hardly any pedestrians on the street, but as soon as Chen Rou stepped out, two figures darted out from the side. One of them said, "Miss Chen, are you done with your work?"

It was Li Xia, and the other was a driver from the wool mill. Despite the freezing weather, the two of them were standing outside the hotel. Chen Rou touched Li Xia's clothes and found them to be wet, so she quickly asked, "Have you been waiting for a long time?"

He then asked, "Why don't you sit in the hotel? The reception room of the August 1st Hotel is open to the public, and it even provides free hot water. Just don't look inside or into the military region."

Li Xia was so anxious that she couldn't wait any longer and came over, repeatedly saying, "I just got here."

The driver also helped her cover up the lie: "We just arrived, and it's just bad luck that we ran into you, Ms. Chen, as you were coming out."

Chen Rou understood Li Xia's feelings and her personality of not liking to ask for help or cause trouble for others, because she herself was like that. Since the matter had already happened, she couldn't blame Li Xia anymore.

Moreover, she had just chatted with Nie Zhao for a while, listened to his analysis, and had some things to discuss in depth with Li Xia, so she quickly got into the car, turned on the dehumidifier and the heater, and helped Li Xia and the driver dry their clothes.

Chen Rou's suitcase was in the car, containing all her toiletries.

But as soon as Chen Rou arrived at Li Xia's house, she brought out a bunch of new toothbrushes and soaps, and Chen Rou couldn't help but laugh when she saw them.

Because those toiletries and such were things that Boss Nie absolutely refused to sit on, insisting on carrying them while waiting for his belongings. They were from the Bayi Hotel, and Chen Ke must have brought them home when he stayed there.

Li Xia treasured it, intending to use it for her distinguished guest. This illustrates the disparity between development and isolation, wealth and poverty.

Chen Rou accepted everything without question, and praised each item: "These pajamas are pure cotton, right? They look so comfortable."
