American comics: Something is wrong with this superhero world

Chapter 279 The Real Owner of Wayne Manor

After Selina finished massaging Xiao Xian, she stood up and looked around Xiao Xian's room, looking very curious. She walked to the table and casually looked through the items on the table, then walked to the bookshelf and carefully checked the neatly arranged books, as if looking for something interesting.

Suddenly, Selina's eyes fell on a corner of the room, where the closet looked particularly small. She frowned slightly, and asked with a hint of doubt in her tone: "This closet is so small, how many clothes can be put in it?"

Bruce saw Selina walk to the door from the closet, and his heart jumped into his throat. If Selina opened the door, he really didn't know how to argue. He couldn't say that he fell asleep inside and didn't hear anything, right?

At this time, Xiao Xian smiled and said, "Don't look at this small wardrobe, it can actually hold a lot of things."

Selena looked at Xiao Xian doubtfully, "Really?" As she said that, she reached out to open the closet.

Bruce was even more nervous inside, but at the same time, he felt inexplicably excited and stimulated, even a little excited. He held his breath and stared closely at Selina's movements.

At this moment, Xiao Xian held Selina's hand again and said with a smile: "Compared to this, I'm more curious about what clothes you have in your closet. Let's go and see if there is anything I like."

Selina smiled and said, "Well, if you say so, let's go take a look at my closet. I have a lot of really beautiful clothes, I'm sure you'll like them."

Xiao Xian took Selina and walked out of the room briskly. Bruce, who was hiding in the closet, saw the two people leaving through the gap, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time felt an inexplicable loss.

Bruce knew clearly how dangerous the moment just now was. If Xiao Xian hadn't reacted quickly, he would have been exposed now. And he actually felt a sense of excitement and thrill in that situation.

At dinner time, Bruce and Selina sat at the dining table to eat, both of them were a little absent-minded, while Harley and Xiao Xian stood aside waiting for instructions.

Bruce looked around first, then took a deep breath and said to Selina, "You know, when Alfred was still here, we rarely had the chance to eat at the same table together. Now that I think about it, I always feel like I owe him too much."

Selina smiled and nodded: "Yes, Alfu has always been very good to us."

Bruce continued, "I have always regarded the housekeeper and the servants as my family. In this case, why not let Xiao Xian and Harley have dinner together as well."

Selina nodded gently: "Okay, it will be more lively if we all eat together."

Bruce called to Harley and Xiao Xian: "You two can sit down together."

So they rearranged the seats, Bruce let Xiao Xian sit opposite Selina, while he sat face to face with Harley.

During the meal, Selina suddenly mentioned: "I had nothing to do today, so I went to take a look at Abin's room. I felt that his room was too small and not very convenient."

Bruce nodded in agreement, "Indeed, we should improve his accommodations."

Selina continued, "I think Abin works very hard, and his room should be more comfortable."

Bruce looked at Harley and said, "Eucliwood, please make arrangements to give Abin a bigger and more luxurious room."

Harley smiled and nodded: "Okay, Mr. Wayne, I'll make arrangements."

Xiao Xian looked at Bruce and Selina gratefully: "Thank you for your concern and arrangements."

Bruce smiled and said, "You're welcome. You are our assistant and our friend." Selina looked at Xiao Xian tenderly, "I hope you can live more comfortably so that you can work better."

Xiao Xian nodded gratefully: "Thank you, Mr. and Mrs. Wayne, I will do my best to work."

Looking at Xiao Xian, who had a serious face like a professional assistant, Harry couldn't help but want to tease him.

After Harley glanced at Bruce and Selina who were also serious, she gently kicked off her leather shoes, revealing a pair of long legs and delicate feet. She slowly stretched her feet towards Xiao Xian.

However, when Harley's foot was about to touch Xiao Xian, she accidentally touched another foot. Harley looked down in surprise and found that it was Selina's foot. Selina obviously also noticed Harley's action, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes, and a faint blush appeared on her face.

Selina's feet were slender and delicate, and painted with light pink nail polish, which made them look particularly attractive. She and Harley looked at each other with surprise and a hint of panic in their eyes. Then Selina quickly looked at Xiao Xian with questioning and uneasiness in her eyes.

Xiao Xian smiled slightly and gave Selina a look that said "no problem". Selina felt a little relieved. Sure enough, Harley had no intention of reporting to Bruce, which made her feel a lot more at ease.

Selina adjusted her sitting position slightly, trying her best to hide her nervousness and panic, but her heartbeat still did not calm down.

Bruce was keenly aware of the unusual expressions between Harley and Selina. He glanced back and forth between the two and felt something was wrong. As a detective well versed in human anatomy, he quickly noticed the subtle changes in Harley's sitting posture.

Harley sat on the chair, her body slightly tilted, this posture showed that one of her feet might have been stretched in the direction of Xiao Xian. Bruce carefully observed Harley's expression, her eyes flashed with a hint of mischief and excitement, with a faint smile on her face.

Combined with Harley's previous actions and expressions, Bruce was very sure that Harley and Xiao Xian had a very high probability of having an unusual relationship. He was angry and uneasy that he knew nothing about it. What made Bruce even angrier was that he vaguely felt that things were beyond his control.

After finishing the meal, Bruce looked at Xiao Xian with a smile, as if there was nothing unusual: "Abin, I want to talk to you about your salary increase tonight, and by the way, please ask Harley to come along."

Xiao Xian was slightly stunned, but still nodded and said, "Okay, Mr. Bruce."

Harley looked at Bruce curiously, a little confused, but didn't say anything.

The three of them came to Bruce's office together. Bruce walked in front and pushed open the door to signal the two to go in. Xiao Xian and Harley walked into the office one after another, and Bruce walked in immediately, closed the door, and locked it. The sound of the door lock was particularly clear in the quiet room.

Bruce then walked straight behind the desk and motioned for them to sit down. The smile on his face disappeared, replaced by a serious expression.

Bruce then went to a cabinet nearby, opened the door, took out a bundle of thick ropes, and walked straight to Xiao Xian, quickly tying him to a chair with the ropes. Harley screamed and wanted to run away, but after Bruce coldly said "Think about your daughter", Harley could only sit on the chair, watching Bruce tie her up in fear.

"Perhaps my previous indulgence made you a little proud and forget who is the real owner of this manor." Bruce picked up the braid and spoke slowly while looking at Xiao Xian and Harley.

"Is he threatening me with his daughter again in his imagination?"

Watching Bruce tie up two empty chairs together with Xiao Xian, Harley complained after hearing Bruce's words,

"It's obvious." Xiao Xian shrugged.

"What a shame." Harley ate potato chips and looked down on Bruce as he started hitting the chair with a ferocious expression on his face.
