Chapter 42 Chapter 42

Qiao Yanrou glanced at the dim light outside, got up and washed up, came out of the bathroom, took out a piece of bread from the storage space, and began to eat it slowly in small bites.

It was already bright outside the window, and there were more and more people on the road downstairs. She was thinking that Fu Chuqing should no longer be in this base.

Qiao Yanrou had just finished eating the bread when there was a knock on the door. She opened the door while drinking some water.

"Let's go, I'll take you to Mr. Xue." The eldest sister yawned and seemed to be still sleepy.

"Excuse me, big sister."

Qiao Yanrou put the cup on the table and followed her elder sister downstairs. She thought she was going to walk over, but after walking a few hundred meters downstairs, she saw her elder sister talking to an old man driving a sightseeing bus. The elder sister waved to her to come over and took her on the sightseeing bus.

The sightseeing bus drove smoothly for quite a distance before gradually slowing down and finally stopping at a manor-like building. She roughly calculated that it would take about 40 minutes to walk from where she lived to here. This base was larger than she had imagined.

"Come down." As the eldest sister spoke, Qiao Yanrou had already gotten off the sightseeing bus.

"This is Uncle Wu. From now on, you will take his sightseeing bus back and forth." After the elder sister said this to her, she also spoke a few good words to Uncle Wu, asking him to wait for Qiao Yanrou a little longer.

Qiao Yanrou called him sweetly, and Uncle Wu smiled kindly: "From now on, just ride with the others."

"Thank you, Grandpa Wu."

The eldest sister gave Qiao Yanrou a few instructions, then quickly got on Uncle Wu’s sightseeing bus and left.

Qiao Yanrou walked into the manor, and the psychic guarding the manor saw that she was brought by her eldest sister and let her in.

She walked in dazedly, and the gardener, knowing she was new, directed her to the swimming pool.

"Are you a water user? The swimming pool is over there."

Qiao Yanrou thanked her and walked in the direction she pointed. She saw the swimming pool along the path. It must be said that she had been to two bases, but only the leader of this base knew how to enjoy it.

Ji Yuanchen and Shen Luohan both have this ability, but they live more casually.

She thought she was the only one responsible for maintaining the swimming pool, but when she walked over, she found that there was already a female psychic using water power to fill the pool.

When the female psychic saw her coming, she looked her up and down. She saw that even though she was wearing a hat and black-framed glasses, it still couldn't hide her beautiful face. The female psychic looked at her for a few seconds and continued to fill the swimming pool with an expressionless face.

Qiao Yanrou saw that the other party didn't like her very much, so she didn't say hello to him. She then used her water ability to fill the swimming pool.

The two water-powered people filled the swimming pool together, and it was almost full in a short while.

Seeing that the water level was just right, Qiao Yanrou retracted her supernatural powers and sat on the beach chair next to her. She looked around, and if it weren't for the towering wall in the distance, everything in front of her would be no different from the world in her previous life.

The female psychic next to her had also retracted her powers and still ignored the newcomer Qiao Yanrou.

The latter sat comfortably in the shade to rest.

Qiao Yanrou had been waiting for lunch, and when it was time for lunch, she followed the female psychic to eat.

During this time, they didn't say a word to each other.

In the evening, she saw the female mutant walking outside, so she followed her.

As soon as she walked out of the manor, the sightseeing bus driven by Uncle Wu was parked not far away. She quickly ran over to greet Uncle Wu and got on the sightseeing bus.

She waited for a while, and the female psychic also got on the sightseeing bus, followed by several people in charge of gardening.

Except for the driver, Uncle Wu, who had a kind smile on his face, almost everyone else on the sightseeing bus was serious.

An off-road vehicle passed by, and Qiao Yanrou noticed that the female supernatural being sitting closer to her had a gleam in her eyes, and her gaze was following the car.

She followed the other person's gaze and saw that the window of the SUV was pitch black and she couldn't see the person inside.

Under her gaze, the car drove into the manor. In the car should be the owner of the manor and the leader of the base, Xue Han.

Qiao Yanrou withdrew her gaze, thinking about staying here for more than a month before leaving the base and staying in the shelter.

While she was fantasizing about how to grow vegetables in the shelter, the tour bus had already arrived near where she lived.

Qiao Yanrou thanked Uncle Wu and got out of the car.

At night, before she fell asleep, she thought to herself that she should not dream of Fu Chuqing again, because in her dreams, he wanted to torture her.

She did not dream of Fu Chuqing again that night. When she woke up in the morning, she felt refreshed, got up, washed, and went to the manor.

She took a sightseeing bus to the manor. When she arrived, the female psychic was not busy alone like she was yesterday. Instead, she waited for her to arrive before walking out from the shade with an expressionless face.

Qiao Yanrou watched how she dealt with the pool and followed her steps, and changed the water in the swimming pool in about half an hour.

She sat idly waiting for lunch time when a tall and elegant man walked out from the first floor of the villa. He was wearing a white bathrobe, with thick black hair and a handsome face with clear contours. He walked to the edge of the swimming pool, took off his bathrobe and casually put it on the handrail beside him. The man's strong and fair body was bathed in the warm morning sun.

Qiao Yanrou didn't expect to meet Xue Yu, the leader of this base, so soon. She watched Xue Yu jump into the water in swimming trunks and swim quite fast.

The female psychic next to her had already stood up and walked towards the handrail, her speed seemed to be afraid that Qiao Yanrou would get closer to Xue Yu before her.

The female psychic waited by the swimming pool. After Xue Yu swam a few laps and slowly walked out of the pool, she shook out her bathrobe, but Xue Yu came up and took the bathrobe away.

He didn't even glance at the female psychic, and said casually: "No need to trouble you." He put on his bathrobe casually as he walked away.

The female psychic stood there, angry that he didn't give her a chance to get close.

Qiao Yanrou watched the female psychic walk back angrily and sit down, leaning silently on the beach chair.

It was almost evening and the sun was setting in the sky. Qiao Yanrou had finished dinner early and was leaving the manor with the female psychic. When she reached the manor gate, she saw a familiar figure. She was so startled that she immediately squatted down and covered her body with the grass.

She saw Fu Chuqing, Ying Jie and others get into a car and drive away from the manor.

Qiao Yanrou's heart was pounding with fear. Fu Chuqing was actually still in this base! Fortunately... fortunately, she was a little late, otherwise she would have crashed into his arms.

The female psychic looked at the departing car with curiosity. The man just now looked like a carved jade figure. He must be a very powerful person to be received by Mr. Xue.

The female psychic did not notice Qiao Yanrou hiding behind her. The latter slowly stood up after seeing the car disappear from her sight.

I didn't dare to go out, so I waited for a while before I got on the sightseeing bus with the gardeners.

On the way back, she was worried and looked around cautiously, fearing that Fu Chuqing would suddenly appear.

It wasn't until she went upstairs and locked the door that she breathed a sigh of relief. She was almost... just almost discovered by him.

It was already dark. Qiao Yanrou walked to the window with lingering fear and looked down through the dim light. There was no familiar figure.

She breathed a sigh of relief again, thinking that they should have left the base. She looked around for a while before she went to take a shower and prepare to rest.
