Chapter 68 Peeping Tom at Home

After obtaining the employer's consent, a special car came to their place to pick up Yu Li.

The agent Beta also got on the car.

The car drove into a tree-lined street, with single-family villas on both sides, and security guards with guns patrolling around each villa.

The car stopped in front of a white villa and the driver informed them that they had arrived.

Beta got out of the car on his own initiative and said enthusiastically, "I'll go and help you take a look first."

Beta stood in front of the villa and pressed the doorbell.

After a while, a man in a white shirt opened the door. Yu Li saw half of the man's body through the car window. When he was about to see his face, Beta turned around and blocked his view.

Beta came over jogging and said to Yu Li, "My employer is not at home. He said he's on a business trip abroad and won't be back for a week. When you go in, say hello to the housekeeper. You can stay here first."

Pulan continued, "Not at home? Who are you trying to fool? Wasn't that the one standing at the door just now?"

Beta: "That's the employer's brother. I just asked and he didn't place the order. Get out of the car now."

This beta seemed a little impatient and wanted to finish quickly so that he could move on to the next deal.

Yu Li walked in front, and Pu Lan followed behind, and they had no choice but to walk towards the villa.

The housekeeper who came out to greet them was a middle-aged female beta. She looked at the two of them and blocked their way with her hand. "Sir, you only hired one red mermaid. Please ask the one behind you to leave immediately."

Pu Lan rolled up his sleeves and was about to argue, but Yu Li stopped him and whispered, "I can take care of myself. You can stay in a nearby hotel."

The housekeeper Beta made a gesture to see the guest off: "You can follow the gentleman's car out."

Pu Lan had no choice but to leave temporarily and whispered to Yu Li: "I will find a way to come back and take care of you, Your Majesty, please hold on for a while."

Yu Li smiled inwardly, it was rare for him to be so loyal.

When people walk into the villa, they find a spacious living room with a large lawn outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.

A man in a white shirt just stood up and walked upstairs, leaving him with an indifferent back.

"That person is..." Yu Li looked at his figure and felt an indescribable sense of familiarity.

The housekeeper said, "He is the master's younger brother. He doesn't like to talk much. From now on, just keep your head down when you see him."

"Oh." Not talkative? Are you dumb?

"You will temporarily stay in the room on the second floor. There are some living facilities you need there. I will take the initiative to talk to you when my husband comes back."

Yu Li nodded honestly, "Then can I walk around here sometimes?"

"Yes, you are free to walk around in public areas, but you cannot enter your neighbors' homes. Otherwise, the soldiers patrolling nearby may mistake you for an infiltrator and may accidentally injure you."

Yu Li nodded, "Thank you, butler."

——

At this time, Qi Sheng came down the spiral staircase while talking on the phone. "Okay, I see. Are you in such a hurry? You still want me to take the photo myself..."

The voice stopped abruptly.

At the corner of the second floor, Qi Sheng was frozen in place as if he had been cast under a spell.

Through the gaps in the carved railings, he saw the familiar mermaid helping the butler carry a basin of coral for decoration.

Qi Sheng rubbed his eyes hard and even pinched his thigh.

This is... is this the King of Xisana?

Why did he appear in my house?

Bai Chuan's voice came from the phone: "Hello? Why are you suddenly silent? Actually, I feel that he looks a lot like the mermaid you raised before."

"...You think he looks like that too?" Qi Sheng murmured unconsciously.

Bai Chuan: "Yes, I contacted him immediately when his photo was posted in our buyer group, but he only looks like him. He must be..."

"Brother Bo, I have something else to do, so I'll hang up first."

The scene in the hotel a few days ago suddenly came to my mind.

Yu Li's face flushed as she called him "husband," and her chest was dripping with water in an ambiguous way. The mermaid's red tail fin was red and cold...

Qi Sheng's ears felt hot instantly, and he subconsciously shrank back and hid behind a pillar in the corridor.

He suddenly didn't dare to go down. He didn't know how to explain. He couldn't just say, "I'm the alpha who touched you and ran away in the hotel that night", right?

But why did he come to Antia?

Looking for a job? Want to be a mermaid?

Tired of being a king? Looking for some excitement abroad?

...Is this reasonable?

Qi Sheng lay by the wall, watching Yu Li and the housekeeper move the suitcases.

The mermaid stood on tiptoe to put the box on the wardrobe. Her tail fin accidentally brushed the ground with a light sound, and his fingertips clenched.

Qi Sheng touched the inhibitor patch on the back of his neck. Only after it was put on did he dare to continue peeking.

At this moment, Yu Li went to the kitchen to wash the fruit again.

He hid behind the green plants outside the kitchen door, and through the gaps between the leaves, he watched him carefully peel the apple. The juice dripped down through his fingers and landed on the red back of his hand.

He went to clean his room again, wiping the table and bathtub over and over again...

It was already evening, and Yu Li began to fill the bathtub with water, apparently preparing to take a bath.

Qi Sheng quickly hid in the guest room opposite and stared at the bathroom through the crack in the door.

Then he heard the sound of water flowing out continuously.

He couldn't help but quietly move the door open, just in time to see Yu Li taking off his coat and his red tail fin gently sliding into the fish tank...

The mermaid leaned against the wall of the fish tank, closed her eyes and sighed softly. The pheromone with the scent of Epiphyllum was as light as mist, floating in through the crack of the door, making Qi Sheng's heart beat fast.

Qi Sheng just watched motionlessly...

About an hour later, Yu Li came out of the fish tank, wiped his wet hair with a towel and walked into the room.

Qi Sheng pressed himself against the door panel in a panic, his heart beating wildly, as if there was a restless little rabbit living in his atrium.

I suddenly felt something strange on the back of my neck, and the inhibitor patch had lifted up a corner.

The spirit that was watching the fun floated out and hovered above Qi Sheng's head, its golden vertical pupils filled with contempt.

It hissed with its tongue, and pointed its tail in the direction of the bathroom and then at Qi Sheng's red ears in disgust.

"What are you looking at?" Qi Sheng shouted in a voice of irritation, "Who was the first to pounce on him that night? I was just thinking about it and you took action?"

"Are you this excited every time you meet someone? That night... I didn't even want to talk about you..."

Qi Sheng gave the spirit a somewhat annoyed look, signaling him to go back.

He roughly tore off the ineffective suppression patch and replaced it with a new one. The estrus period had not yet passed, so he had to stick it on tightly.

Qi Sheng sighed deeply, "You are just a part of my spiritual carrier. I dare to think that you dare to do it. I don't blame you, I can only blame myself for not being able to hold back..."

After Yu Li returned to the room, he always felt uncomfortable.

When he was moving things, he always felt that someone was watching him from behind. When he was washing fruit, he seemed to hear movement outside the door. When he was taking a bath, he seemed to see a shadow passing by outside the fish tank...

He wrapped his pajamas tightly around him and glanced around the corner of the room in confusion: "Is this an illusion? Or is there something invisible living here?"

After turning off the lights and lying down, I heard a slight sound outside the door again.

Yu Li held his breath and listened with his ears perked up. It seemed like someone was lying on the door, and even his breathing was deliberately lightened.

He frowned, but didn't dare to get up to check. He could only comfort himself in his heart: "I must have been too tired recently and had hallucinations."

If anyone really dares to come in and hurt me, I can only sharpen my claws on his skin.

Qi Sheng, who was outside the door, was leaning against the door panel, looking at the dark outlines in the room through the crack.

He actually didn't want to do this, but he couldn't help it. What was going on?

He only stepped back quietly and returned to his room when he heard the sound of even breathing from inside the room.

This scene happened to be seen by the housekeeper who came downstairs to patrol, but she did not say a word. She just silently took a picture of the scene and sent it to you, Bai Chuan.

…

The next morning, Qi Sheng was awakened by the noise downstairs.

He lay down at the stairs and looked down, and found that Yu Li was following the housekeeper to set the table. His red tail fin was tightly hidden under his apron, with only a small piece of scales showing.

Qi Sheng was watching intently when he saw Yu Li coming up.

“Dongdongdong——”

"Mr.'s brother, are you awake? The housekeeper asked me to call you for breakfast."

"Yeah!" Qi Sheng responded in a pinched voice, walked to the door, saw Yu Li coming downstairs, and then hurriedly rummaged through the drawers to look for something.

First, he found a black mask to cover half of his face, then he grabbed a baseball cap and put it on his head, with the brim pulled down low, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed.

He looked at himself in the mirror and it seemed that he was still a little easy to recognize.

He took out a thick cotton coat and put it on, perfectly covering his body.

After hesitating for a long time, he finally went downstairs.

"Are you awake? Come and sit down." As a mermaid employed by this family, he maintained an optimistic and dedicated spirit, and handed him a bowl of freshly made soup with a smile.

Qi Sheng was wearing too many clothes, and his hands were a little stiff, so he almost dropped the bowl when he took it.

Yu Li's eyes fell on his tightly wrapped body, his eyes full of confusion: "The temperature today is close to 30 degrees. Are you hot wearing so many clothes?"

Qi Sheng quickly lowered his head and uttered a vague "hmm", his voice muffled by the mask.

He didn't dare look into Yu Li's eyes, but just stared at his bowl, pretending to prepare to eat.

“You need to take off your mask when eating, otherwise the food cannot enter your mouth.”

Qi Sheng's Adam's apple rolled, and he held it in for a long time before finally squeezing out an "oh".

Yu Li looked at the aunt who was serving the food, trying to seek help.

But the aunt didn't seem to dare to talk to him. She was busy with her own work and pretended not to see them.

Yu Li had no choice but to bite the bullet and ask again: "You are the master's younger brother, so do you know when the master will be back?"

Qi Sheng remained in his original posture and replied with a "hmm".

Yu Li was stunned for a moment, and a thought popped up in his mind: Is he really mute?

The following breakfast time turned into Yu Li's one-sided questioning, trying to get some words out of the mute's mouth.

"What do you like to do?"

"Hmm." He pointed to the food in the bowl.

"Security is so tight around here. Do you know why?"

"Ah." Shaking his head.

"I heard Zhai Mo also lives in this area, right?" Yu Li felt that the question was too direct, and added, "I'm just a little curious, not trying to pry into his privacy."

"Yeah!" He nodded vigorously.

Yu Li frowned: It seems that he is really mute. He hasn't said a word until now.

At this time, the housekeeper finished his inspection and walked in from outside: "How did you sleep last night? After breakfast, I will take you to familiarize yourself with the surrounding environment so that you don't get lost."

"No problem!" Yu Li's eyes lit up, thinking that the opportunity came faster than expected.

As long as we can find Zhai Mo's residence, we can meet Zhai Wenxi, and then we will naturally know Qi Sheng's whereabouts.

"I'm full!" Yu Li put down the cutlery and gave the housekeeper a sweet smile: "We can leave now."

The butler nodded gently: "Please wait a moment, I will go get the area map."

Just as the butler turned around and left, the inhibitor patch on the back of Qi Sheng's neck fell to the ground, covered with a thin layer of dust.

Before Qi Sheng could react, a wisp of black smoke suddenly emerged from the gland.

The smoke swirled in the air and in the blink of an eye condensed into a round snake head!

The black mamba is shiny black all over, and its big round eyes take up one-third of its face.

It tilted its head, its pink little tongue moving happily in and out, and gave Yu Li a silly smile at the back of his head, even its fangs showing a childish look.

The little snake poked Yu Li's blond hair with the tip of its tail, but seeing no reaction, it twisted its chubby body around to get in front of him...
