Chapter 34 Chapter 34: Knuckles has a very obvious tooth...
Louis was a very strong-willed person at heart, and his illness was not without warning. He probably felt a little unwell on the way back to the Pearlance Villa, but he didn't like to show it.
Rather than being taken care of, he would rather be a person who takes care of others.
He has always done this.
Whether in official or private matters.
You could say he was being brave or stubborn. When he had a fever at night, all he wanted was to get some sleep and not cause any trouble.
A few years ago, the flu was rampant in the company. Everyone else got sick and took leave, leaving only a few people at their workstations. Louis and Mr. Jin were the only two survivors.
...He is simply the chosen worker and the chosen boss.
For adults, it's just a sickness, nothing serious, just take a nap or two.
However, Louis really didn't expect that Perrance would stay by his bedside all night.
In the morning, when Louis opened his eyes, he saw Perrance lying on the head of his bed, her long silver hair looking like the most beautiful handful of falling snow.
The gold-rimmed glasses have been taken off.
Perrance only wore gloves on his left hand, not on his right. The gloves on his right hand were placed on Louis' bedside table together with his glasses.
So, Louis finally saw Perrance's hand for the first time.
Perrance lay on the bed with his face sideways, kneeling on the shaggy carpet in the room.
His hand was placed on Louis' quilt, with a circle of bright red on his wrist, as if someone had held it like this.
The sunlight gently streamed down, seeming to penetrate the skin of the hands, illuminating the soft, gentle glow within. The fingers were slender and elegant, well-proportioned, and possessed an indescribable softness, their nails full and round.
Such hands, whether they are plucking the strings of a musical instrument or leisurely flipping through the pages of a book, have their own charm.
Looks great with or without gloves.
Looking at Perrance's sleeping face.
For a moment, a confused expression appeared on Louis' face.
Louis felt a little uncomfortable despite being taken care of. He always felt that he owed someone a favor and should repay it.
——
Perrance was dreaming again.
As smart as he was, he quickly realized that because he and Louis were too compatible, it would be easy for the male insect to be invaded in the spiritual sea when he was around Louis, or even just smelled the pheromones on Louis' clothes.
Perrance's spiritual world seemed to have become extremely weak and vulnerable, and could be easily penetrated by Louis' deep and powerful pheromones.
Louis's pheromones were like poppies to Perrance. He wanted to reject them, but was unknowingly bewitched by them.
The pheromone is comfortable and gentle.
Like dripping water wearing away stone, it pries open the hard barrier bit by bit, revealing the soft interior.
Perrance's brows knitted slightly at the edge of his dream.
In the dream, the branches of the Selaginella tree brushed against Perrance's body from time to time. However, this gentle touch from the dream became a little confused on the edge of reality and dream, causing Perrance to turn his body slightly in discomfort, trying to escape this indescribable subtle feeling.
“Hmm…”
Just as Perrance was struggling between half sleep and half wakefulness, he was suddenly awakened by a sudden, faint feeling of being suspended in mid-air.
"Well!"
His heartbeat suddenly accelerated, as if it was suddenly lifted up by an invisible force. Then, his eyes suddenly opened, and a hint of panic and confusion flashed in his clear eyes.
"What,--"
At this moment, his eyes met Louis's.
Louis bent over and stood beside the bed, also a little surprised. Apparently, he had just tried to gently pick up Perlans who had fallen asleep beside the bed and place him on a more comfortable bed.
Seeing Perrance wake up in his arms, Louis' eyes were embarrassed at first, and then immediately revealed a touch of just the right apology:
"I'm so sorry, I just wanted you to sleep more peacefully."
Pearlance looked at Louis, his mouth slightly open in surprise, and a small part of his bright red tongue and snow-white teeth could be vaguely seen. His long eyelashes trembled shamefully.
"Your Mightiness……"
Perrance was speechless for a moment.
Of course, Perrance had never been held like this before.
Now being held tightly in Louis's broad and strong arms, Perrance was of course frightened at first.
But Louis held him horizontally with unquestionable strength, his movements steady, without the slightest stagger or wavering. One could even faintly hear the sound of Louis's steady and powerful heartbeat.
They were so close.
They are so close to each other.
This has completely crossed the line.
Perrance could clearly feel the tense muscles in Louis' arms, a burst of power, both hard and resilient. His back and knees felt a tight fit with the male insect's arms, leaving no room for gaps.
But what followed immediately was shame.
Perlans struggled slightly, and Louis immediately put the sub-female in his arms down. Only after making sure that Perlans was standing firmly did Louis completely let go.
Louis apologized again and asked:
"I'm so sorry, boss, you might be a germaphobe. Maybe you don't like me touching you?"
Mysophobia...
Perrance suddenly remembered that he was not wearing a glove on his right hand and suddenly found himself exposed to the slightly cool air.
This sudden change made him shiver involuntarily. His fingers curled up quickly and instinctively, his palms turned slightly white, and his knuckles became more prominent due to the contraction, revealing a delicate sense of confusion.
Because of his uneasiness, there was a barely perceptible panic in Perlance's eyes, as if he had been deprived of some basic protection.
The snow-white gloves on the bedside table were conspicuous.
Louis smiled, bent down, and reached out to take the gloves and glasses for Perrance.
He first placed the glasses in Perrance's other hand.
Then he looked at the gloves and found that they had become a little wrinkled - this was normal, as things made of silk were always very easy to wrinkle.
However, he guessed that the gloves were also a disposable item for Perrance.
The male insect held up the glove and asked Perrance with a smile,
"Boss, do you still need this? Or should I get you new gloves? Where are the new gloves?"
You need to change your gloves.
The gloves have already been worn.
But, but,
Perrance covered his right hand and looked at Louis. His right wrist was slightly red because the male insect had a fever and was confused last night and insisted on pulling his wrist.
There was even a tooth mark on the knuckle of his right ring finger. This was also bitten by the bewildered Louis. No matter how hard Perrance struggled, he couldn't get it off. His ring finger was forcibly pulled between the male insect's teeth and bitten.
There was a very obvious tooth mark.
You should wash your hands first.
The teeth marks should be removed first.
However, Perrance was more afraid that Louis would discover the teeth marks on his hand, which would only cause more embarrassment for both of them.
"It's okay, no need."
Perrance lowered his eyes, took the messy glove from Louis' hand, put it back on his right hand, covering the tooth mark.
The ring finger curled up uncomfortably.
Like a faint spasm of breathing between fingers.
——
The sun is shining brightly outside, and the light shines through the staggered windows, being cut into beams of light, illuminating the spacious and elegant space inside the villa.
Louis brushed his teeth in the morning and wanted to come out to make some breakfast for Purance, but he found that Purance had disappeared.
There was an assistant's business card left on the table.
What this means is that if there is anything he needs, Louis can go find the assistant.
So Louis opened the refrigerator and looked: ...
Empty.
Doesn't Perrance usually eat at home?
There was no other way, so Louis could only pick up the terminal and call the assistant's contact information on the business card.
The young assistant hurried over in a flying vehicle and was a little reserved when facing Louis.
The young assistant is a female, but her body is obviously very petite. Perrance is tall and slender. The young assistant is half a head shorter than Perrance. When standing, her head can only reach Louis' shoulders.
"Hello, Mr. Louis, I'm Mia, the boss's assistant. I'm very happy to be able to serve you."
Mia has a very cute and pleasing appearance, so she usually doesn't get into trouble.
Although Louis calls Perrance boss, it seems that the other assistants all call Perrance boss.
Although he was a little restrained, it did not affect Louis's performance. In just one morning, Louis became familiar with his assistant Mia while he went to buy groceries with her.
Mia was a little afraid of Louis at first, but after she found out that this A-level male insect was not arrogant, she became a little bolder.
After returning with bags of vegetables and fresh fruits, Louis discovered that there was a special person cleaning the house.
In one morning, Louis had already gained a preliminary understanding of the specific situation of Perrance from Mia.
To put it simply, she is a noble, a female shrew, a businessman, very rich, and single.
Mia had left at noon, and Louis was alone, so he made himself some food. He could cook, and he cooked at home, and he rarely ate out.
Although he cooks and washes dishes at home, if he goes out, he has to find a place and parking is not very convenient. Moreover, Louis himself is a person with a picky taste. He prefers to eat his favorite dishes that he cooks himself.
After work, it has become Louis’ habit to cook for himself.
His parents divorced when he was very young and left him to live with his grandparents. His grandparents died when he was in high school, and Louis has lived alone ever since.
He is very grateful to his grandmother for teaching him how to cook.
At least I can make something I like to eat.
In an era dominated by takeout and gourmet restaurants, there are very few people like Louis who like to cook at home.
Now Louis has completely calmed down and started to get familiar with the Zerg society. He also knows why he came to this strange world.
The most likely reason was because of the company’s team building at that time.
Everyone wanted to take advantage of the window period of project handover to relax and went to Mr. Jin's villa for a home party. Everyone bought food and equipment to bring over. The situation was completely controllable at the beginning.
Some people were washing vegetables, some were cutting vegetables, and although the cutting was messy, Louis felt that the appearance was not particularly important. The most important thing was that everyone was in high spirits.
Even the icy-faced Mr. Jin would smile a few times.
Later, the situation got completely out of control. When cooking, Louis was very humble and said that the food he cooked was not very good. The others also said that they were not good at cooking and the food might not taste good.
Louis thought the rest of the people were also modest.
...I never expected that what they said was true.
There was a piece of braised pork wrapped in red sauce in the rice cooker, and it was making crackling sounds. If you didn't know, you would think that something was exploding in Laozi's alchemy furnace.
Unexpectedly, it actually exploded in the end - thanks to Xirui's rag.
Yes, Louis also saw that Xirui was the culprit who got rid of all of them.
He was indeed angry, but Louis felt that he also had some responsibility for the matter... After all, he didn't expect that the remaining few people were not being modest and were telling the truth.
When you say I'm not very good at cooking, it's true that I can't cook at all.
Louis: When I think about it now, I still feel speechless. It turns out that people can really laugh when they are speechless.
I don’t know what happened to those four people.
Louis lowered his head, his eyes following the gentle dance of the fire, and the kitchen was gradually filled with a warm and tempting smell of fireworks.
In the kitchen, there were a lot of things bought, and all kinds of pots and pans were arranged in an orderly manner. Louis' figure was looming in the steam and firelight, and the firelight reflected on his focused face, making him look warm and gentle.
I always felt that the villa lacked some of the atmosphere of homeliness, but now Louis’ arrival has directly made up for this atmosphere.
In the afternoon, the teacher that Perlans found for Louis came to his house. Louis was a very serious student. After only two lessons, the teacher was able to control his pheromones freely, and also learned a lot about the physiological knowledge of the Zerg.
After lunch, before the teacher came, Louis browsed around the Star Network for a while and downloaded some e-books to learn about this completely unfamiliar world. Books are always the concrete carriers of culture. When you are completely unfamiliar with a world, reading is very effective. However, he only read two books before the teacher came.
The teacher left before dinner.
Louis originally thought that Purance would come back for dinner. After all, Purance left home before 7 o'clock in the morning.
Louis also specifically asked his assistant Mia, and Mia said that Perrance's schedule tonight should not end very late.
Working 12 hours a day was probably too much. But at 7 o'clock in the evening, Perrance still hadn't returned home.
However, it is normal for the boss to be busy.
It was not necessary to wait until Pearlance to eat, so Louis heated up the cold food a little and ate it himself.
After dinner, Louis washed the dishes and cleaned the villa a little, but he respected his boss's private space and did not go into his personal study and bedroom.
Nine o'clock in the evening.
Louis continued reading.
At half past nine in the evening, the terminal on Louis' wrist rang and a call came in.
Louis took a look and saw it was "Assistant Mia".
The terminal rang for less than a second, and Louis picked up immediately: "Hello?"
Mia's nervous voice came from the other end of the phone, very cautious:
"I'm so sorry, Mr. Louis, to bother you so late. I'm really sorry. I didn't expect the boss to attend the banquet on behalf of the vice president today. Have you eaten?"
Louis: “Yeah, that’s okay.”
But Assistant Mia's voice sounded even more apologetic: "I'm so sorry, Mr. Louis..."
It felt like she was going to cry in the next second. After all, in the afternoon, Mia was really optimistic about Louis. She felt that Louis and the boss were a perfect match.
Louis: "...It's okay. Or if you really feel sorry, you can send me the address. I'm free now and can come and pick up your boss."
A message came from the terminal immediately.
[Mia's Assistant: "Location: Soloni Grand Hotel"]
