After closing the door, Jiang Xu stretched his limbs for a while, then glanced at the corner, his gaze finally settling on the bathroom door.

To confirm his thoughts, he went in without hesitation and looked into the mirror.

The person in the mirror had the same black hair and clean, refined features as him, with dark pupils staring at him. Despite being exactly the same as him, he recognized at a glance that this body did not belong to him.

Because the alluring beauty mark under her eye has disappeared.

He reached up and smoothed the hair at his temples; it was considerably longer than his neatly styled hair.

Adding to the information that the person had inadvertently revealed earlier, Jiang Xu confirmed his guess.

He traveled through time—

I was transported to a strange world.

Jiang Xu stood quietly in front of the mirror, his eyes swirling with emotions.

How did I end up time-traveling?

What about his body before?

Are you still alive?

Is he able to go back?

How can he get back?

What exactly is the situation now?

Why would someone be kneeling naked in front of him?

He wants to know so much, but no one can answer his questions.

However, having grown up in the world of fame and fortune, he quickly suppressed these strange and unfamiliar emotions.

He brushed the hair from his forehead with his hand, then smoothed it back, making him look much more energetic.

After thinking about it, I went back to my bedroom.

My attention was completely focused on the insect just now, but now I have time to take a good look at the environment he is in.

The bedroom is decorated quite nicely; the light-colored bed curtains and the main curtains should be from the same workshop.

Even under the dim yellow light, the reflection of the silver lines on it is still visible.

The brown wooden furniture didn't look out of place inside.

The pile of random things on the floor only added an indescribable odor to the room.

Jiang Xu walked to the window, drew back the thin curtains, and looked outside. He then realized that his room was on the second floor. Looking out from inside the house, he could see that each house had its own small yard; was this a villa area?

The incandescent lights hanging high on both sides of the road shone through the glass into the house, completely destroying the originally strange atmosphere.

Ding ding~~ Ding ding~~

A series of sharp vibrations interrupted Jiang Xu's thoughts. Looking down, he noticed something resembling a telephone watch on his wrist.

He raised his hand, his eyes filled with surprise.

3D projection?

3D imaging?

Is this high-tech?

When did this kind of science fiction stuff get successfully developed?

A tiny figure was holographically projected in the center of the dial. Yes, it was one of those 3D projections floating in the air. Below the figure were three small square icons and a green and a red button.

Although I've never used it before, I still know what to order.

Jiang Xu gently tapped the green button with his slender fingertips, and the person in the projection came to life.

The other person was sitting calmly on the sofa. When the call was connected, they turned their head and smiled at him.

He then spoke, a clear yet slightly hoarse voice coming from his wrist: "Young Master Jiang, it's been half a day since you got back, why haven't you made a move yet?"

The person opposite him didn't notice the unusual look on his face. Seeing that he didn't speak, they continued to ask, "Is your female soldier really good? Did you enjoy it?"

Clearly, he knew this person, and they were quite familiar with each other...

The tone of voice was very similar to the boastful yet curious tone of men in gay bars.

Jiang Xu glanced at him indifferently, ignoring the mocking expression on his face, and said calmly, "It's alright, nothing special."

He lowered his eyes slightly. "Military female? What does that mean?"

What's the difference between him and a powerful ruler?

"Really?" Bernd smirked, glancing sideways at the kneeling female insect at his feet, and gave it a light kick. "Tsk, female insects are just despicable."

Jiang Xu frowned as he looked at the person opposite him, not understanding why the other person had come to such a conclusion.

But what about a female insect?

"By the way, what's your female soldier's name again?" Bernd asked casually, seemingly not expecting Jiang Xu to answer him. He then looked down to his side. "Lan, what's your subordinate's name again?"

Lan knelt upright, her face expressionless, and respectfully replied, "Fei Walker."

"Yes, yes." Reminded of this, Bernd recalled the appearance and figure of the female soldier.

I've seen Lan from behind a few times before; that waist, those legs, that hip—truly impressive. It's just that her background is rather lowly, otherwise…

"I say, Jiang Xu, how did this insect catch your grandfather's eye? Apart from its appearance and physique, it has nothing special about it."

He couldn't understand why, with a family background like the Jiang family, they would force the only male insect in the family to marry such a female insect.

Is he really not possessed by a ghost?

Although she was just a female servant, it was still a great honor for that insect to be able to climb the social ladder.

He didn't notice the fleeting shock in Jiang Xu's eyes as he spoke.

insect? ? ?

Jiang Xu subconsciously wanted to look around at his surroundings to see if there were any insects.

But he immediately realized that the person on the other end was referring to the female soldier.

Insect? Female insect? Female soldier? Male master?

What a jumble of nonsense.

Bernd realized he had been rambling on for quite a while, while Jiang Xu across from him was just staring at him in silence.

I couldn't help but think to myself: "He's got a poker face; he still has a poker face on his wedding night."

They really don't know how to enjoy life.

Bernd recalled the scene when he had encountered the female soldier at the military headquarters.

Although the female insect was despicable, it must be said that the insect was really good-looking, with a perfect match between its face and body.

I wonder what it's like under the military uniform. Jiang Xu is really getting a good deal.

Of course, he only dared to think about it.

However, given that the other party dislikes female insects, it's possible that the female insect might actually come to his bed and play with him.

Why are you so quiet today? Are you exhausted?

His tone was full of decadence.

Jiang Xu responded with an "Mmm" in agreement.

He disliked the other person's tone and demeanor, finding it very uncomfortable.

It could even be described as disgust.

Where did the original owner find friends from?

Bernd chuckled: "Looks like you really put in a lot of effort today. So, did he beg for mercy?"

"..." Jiang Xu.

"Don't forget our bet, you can't go back on your word."

"..." Jiang Xu lowered his eyes slightly and said coldly, "I haven't forgotten. Don't spoil my enjoyment. I'm hanging up."

"Okay, if I haven't forgotten..." Bernd's words were cut off before the call was disconnected.

He glanced at the communicator, scoffed, and his expression was full of disdain.

He hooked Lan's chin with his hand, as if toying with a cat or dog, a sneer on his lips, as if he had thought of something, with an expression of certainty.

Jiang Xu had seen all sorts of people, but this was the first person he had ever encountered who annoyed him so much.

He digested the information the other party had given him for a while, and quickly connected it to the reason why his original self had returned today.

However—a headache soon followed: what was that bet?

He was completely in the dark.

Although he didn't like reading those melodramatic novels, he had peeked at some of them while his grandmother watched TV dramas at home.

But did he transmigrate or possess someone else's body? Don't other people have systems to answer their questions?

Why hasn't he appeared after all this time!

He sighed helplessly and decided to just muddle through for now. There were too many questions, and he didn't even know which one to look for the answer to.

Soft footsteps came from outside, very light.

Fortunately, the surrounding environment was quiet enough, otherwise he probably wouldn't have noticed.

The footsteps stopped at the door of his room and then fell silent.

His gaze darkened, and he lowered his eyes.

Who lives in this house? Who lives there now? He had no idea.

Time passed second by second, but there was still no movement outside the door.

Without further hesitation, Jiang Xu strode toward the door. When the door opened, his gaze paused noticeably, and he lowered his eyes slightly to look at the person kneeling upright at the door.

Is this female soldier seriously ill? Why does she like kneeling before people so much?

He glanced at Fei and saw that the other person was already dressed and had a faint medicinal scent wafting from him.

It seems the injuries have been treated.

Jiang Xu took two steps forward and closed the bedroom door behind him.

He glanced discreetly at the layout of the house, looked around, located the stairs, turned and walked over: "Follow me."

Fei's gaze quietly fell on Jiang Xu, a fleeting, ambiguous emotion passing through her: "Yes."

He stood up nimbly, as if the whip marks had never existed.

Jiang Xu walked ahead, sensitively catching the scrutinizing gazes from behind.

He walked down the stairs steadily and slowly, without showing any worry on his face.
