Chapter 050 "If you want to praise me, you should say I'm handsome!"
Fortunately, He Xile didn't take off his clothes.
He opened the cabinet door and began to select the interstellar bath salt balls to put in the bathtub.
I have already used the coral last time, so I must try something new this time.
He Xile picked and chose among the bath balls, selecting a dark night starry sky version and adding a large turtle. When he stood up and returned to the tub, the tentacle had already filled the tub and was playing with the water with its tip.
He Xile: “…”
——This octopus is so natural.
He reached out to test the water temperature, which was slightly cool, probably the temperature the giant octopus liked.
Throwing the bath salt ball directly in, He Xile said, "You take a bath."
The starry sky bath salt balls, upon contact with water, instantly transformed into beautiful cosmic patterns, a truly breathtaking sight. The giant turtle also seemed to come alive, slowly swimming through the water. Combined with the cosmic landscape beneath, it seemed to soar through the air.
It looks really good.
He Xile couldn't help but take a few more glances.
On the side, the tentacles were already sticking to the edge of the bathtub, slowly entering the water and starting to enjoy it.
He Xile looked at the giant octopus's leisurely appearance and felt a little amused.
This was clearly a gift from His Majesty to He Xile, but the giant octopus got all of it. Next time if he had time, he would definitely take advantage of the giant octopus's absence and come and soak in it.
With the giant octopus's tentacles around, He Xile felt embarrassed to take a shower.
He was about to get up and do something else when his clothes were suddenly caught by the tip of the tentacle.
"What's wrong?"
He Xile felt the tentacles slowly wrapping around his waist.
The tentacles had just come into contact with water, and after being entangled like this, He Xile's clothes quickly became wet.
He was just wondering what the tentacle was trying to do when he felt the tentacle on his waist exert a little force, and then He Xile was lifted into the air.
He Xile: “???”
W-What's going on!?
The feeling of having your legs hanging in the air is very uncomfortable.
He Xile was horrified.
"Put me down now."
Before he could finish his words, the tentacle easily put him into the water.
He Xile subconsciously held onto the edge of the bathtub with his arms.
When he turned around, he saw the tentacles gently patting the water surface comfortably, looking very happy. The big turtle that He Xile had put into the water with his own hands also swam slowly to his side and touched He Xile's body affectionately.
He Xile: “…”
The bathtub was big enough and the tentacles' meaning was very straightforward, but He Xile didn't want to take a bath with the giant octopus.
I always feel that this scene is weird.
He was soaking wet and tried to get out of the bathtub, but was held down by the tentacles again.
The tentacles were not very powerful, but He Xile was lying in the water at that time. He was afraid of rubbing against the starry sky pattern in the bathtub, and was also afraid of pressing against the tentacles beside him. He had no foothold and could not get up.
He Xile is in a difficult situation.
He could only pat the tentacle lightly and stated: "I am wearing clothes now and cannot take a bath. The bathtub is also a little too small to accommodate the two of us."
The tentacles froze.
He Xile thought, now the tentacles should leave, allowing him to get out of the water, right?
He was just about to use some strength to get up from the bathtub, when the next second, a tentacle slowly came over, and the soft tip touched He Xile's collar and accidentally rubbed He Xile's collarbone.
Afterwards, the tentacles were very unreserved and began to compete with the buttons on He Xile's shirt.
He Xile: “???”
Oh shit.
This giant tentacle is trying to take off his clothes???
He Xile: "!!! Stop it!"
He quickly reached out and pushed.
Feeling He Xile's resistance, the tentacles paused, finally retracted a bit, and stopped moving.
He Xile immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Damn it.
how so?
Luckily I'm wearing a shirt today...
If he was wearing something like a T-shirt that was easier to take off, wouldn't there be an accident?!
He Xile no longer cared about whether the bath salt ball was starry or not, or whether it would crush the tentacles of the giant octopus. He jumped out of the water directly.
The water was rippling, almost knocking the big turtle out of the bathtub.
During this time, the tentacles remained quiet.
He Xile landed on his feet and reached out to touch the bath towel that had been prepared beside him.
He wiped the water off his body in vain as he explained, "We're all adults, taking a bath together in the same tub... well, it feels like there's too little sense of boundaries. Just wash by yourself, and call me when you're done. Oh, and next time you do something like this, ask for my opinion first. Don't just throw me in the water again."
All my clothes were soaked with water and felt sticky and uncomfortable to wear.
He Xile walked out of the bathroom.
He quickly changed into simple clothes and dried his whole body, only then did he feel a little more comfortable.
He sat at the table and read quietly for a while. He estimated the time and thought that the giant octopus should have been washed. After He Xile re-entered the bathroom, he found that the tentacles had left quietly.
The bathtub was a mess.
——It happened just now when He Xile rolled out of the bathtub.
"... He left without even saying goodbye."
He Xile muttered.
He cleaned up the bathroom, then took off his clothes and took a serious shower.
It was more than forty minutes later when I lay down on the bed.
After glancing at the terminal, He Xile thought for a moment and sent a message to Big Octopus: "Are you angry?" Was it because He Xile didn't want to take a bath with him that Big Octopus got angry and left directly?
The giant octopus quickly replied, "I'm not angry."
That's good.
He Xile put down the terminal with peace of mind and went to sleep.
The next morning, as soon as He Xile opened his eyes, he heard the sound of the terminal receiving a message.
He raised his hand slowly and found that his account had automatically received a refund from StarNet - the dozens of star coins that He Xile had recharged at the Mecha Experience Hall yesterday were all refunded because the experience hall was closed down.
"Great—"
He Xile cheered in a useless way.
Good things happen as soon as you open your eyes, which means you will have good luck all day!
Really good!
He Xile was very happy.
He did not see His Majesty in the dining room at breakfast.
The guard explained in a low voice, "Something happened last night, something related to yesterday's incident... His Majesty received the news and rushed to a remote star system overnight. He probably won't be back for the next week."
He added, "His Majesty told me to tell you this."
Wen Jiyu seemed to have guessed that this little human would ask this question, so he sent a message to Guard 131, instructing him to reply like this if He Xile looked for him.
Just now, the human was looking around in the restaurant, obviously looking for His Majesty.
He Xile bit the spoon and said, "I see."
The guard added, "While Your Majesty is away from the palace, security will be tighter, but you must still be extra careful."
The chef on the side felt the same way.
As he helped He Xile cut the small grilled ribs, he said, "Your Excellency, please don't take it lightly. Hai Xinna has so many planets and so many people on them, so it's normal for different opinions to arise. In the past, whenever His Majesty wasn't in charge, there were always accidents, big and small, happening in the palace... You are His Majesty's ward now. For the next while, no matter where you go, you must inform 131."
He Xile nodded obediently: "I will."
really.
The identity relationship between He Xile and Wen Jiyou destined He Xile to be a good breakthrough point to attack His Majesty. Whether it is to win He Xile over or let He Xile get into trouble, it will be very effective.
This is probably also the important reason why the person in charge of the "Fall Plan" would ask someone to find He Xile?
—Your Majesty, as the sole guardian of humanity in the entire empire, if you fail to protect humanity and cause its death...
He Xile hissed.
I guess the public opinion alone can drown Wen Jiyou.
What’s more, why did we always cherish our lives?
He also didn't want to put himself in danger.
He Xile said without hesitation: "I don't like to go out anyway, so I'll just stroll around the small garden. There shouldn't be any danger. I'll go out less frequently recently and just wait for His Majesty to return."
Guard: "Thank you for your hard work, sir."
"It's okay, it's okay." He Xile waved his hand.
StarNet is so much fun and not hard at all!
Return to the room.
He Xile logged into his account and started the live broadcast.
He thought of what the guard had said before and couldn't help but open the browser on Starnet to search for the latest news.
——The anniversary of the late Emperor Fergus has arrived, and the people of Haixinna have flocked to pay their respects and offer flowers.
——Major discovery in the Chaker Galaxy: three undiscovered precious blue quartz stars.
——Recently, some netizens revealed that residents in Haixinna Imperial City frequently streaked, causing trouble to many residents... Is this a distortion of human nature or a decline in morality?
There is a picture below, which is a mosaic of yellow.
He Xile: "Hmm???"
Looks a little familiar???
"Is Lanlan going to check the news on live broadcast today?"
"What's up with this last piece of entertainment news? Hahahaha."
"I feel sorry for the eyes of the people of the imperial capital..."
He Xile coughed lightly and said, "Just take a look."
He quickly scrolled down the page and browsed the rest of the news, but he didn't see anything unusual or related to "God Bellamy".
He Xile guessed that it might be His Majesty who suppressed the news.
He cuts it out.
"Lanlanlan, did His Majesty really log into the Star Network yesterday?"
"It's been many, many years since I last saw Your Majesty on Starnet..."
"Come to think of it, His Majesty was also an internet addict in his youth, frequently logging onto the Star Network. However, he had a bad temper and would often curse back at anyone who offered him advice. Back then, the Star Network was incredibly lively, and I'd often see His Majesty's heroic battles on the main channels..."
"Thinking about it now, I miss it so much?"
"It's a pity that His Majesty didn't come online later. Sigh."
"By the way, Lanlan, someone saw you and His Majesty coming out of an experience center together before, and then that experience center was closed down. Why was that? I was thinking of going in and trying out the dish because of that video you posted earlier."
"Yeah, yeah, me too. That's why I even watched the previous editing last night, and there doesn't seem to be any problems with the experience center, at least the shots that were filmed there are fine."
"Could it be because Indigo was bullied?"
"Huh? Who would bully such a cute Indigo?"
"That shouldn't be the case. I see Lan Lan by chance on Starnet, and I'm already lucky enough not to rush over and rub her. How could someone be so cruel as to bully her???"
He Xile: “…”
There is no need to rub it.
He waved his hand and said, "No one is bullying me. I can't tell you what happened at the experience center yesterday. If there is a detailed announcement later, you will know what happened."
"Damn it! I can't even eat fresh melons from humans!"
He Xile sat upright, his face serious: "There is one more thing I must explain to you."
"?"
"What's wrong?"
"Lanlan seems to be about to say something important?"
Realizing this, all the Haixinna people watching the live broadcast couldn't help but become serious.
——What would Lanlan say?
Is he going to report His Majesty for abusing him?
Considering Lan Lan's behavior of watching the news just now, some people think that it is very possible!
Just thinking about it.
He Xile cleared his throat and said, "It's like this. My current height is 1.7 meters... 1.8 meters. On our planet, men of this height are already above average, so the word 'cute' is not really appropriate to describe me."
He said seriously, "I solemnly correct you here. If you want to compliment me, you should say I'm handsome!"
