All the goddesses in the world are lusting after my body.

"Then, I'll make the bed and wait for the master..."

"I already told you, you can take your anger out on me."

Jiang Tang couldn't help but hug Shi Xue tighter.

"No! I don't want to get angry at Master... I don't have that right. Master doesn't need to care about my feelings."

"Won't that make people care even more?"

"Touch it and see."

Jiang Tang, standing at the door, suddenly looked down at him and said...

Ye Shixue wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and blushed as she reached out her hand.

"I didn't mean for you to touch there!"

Jiang Tang complained.

"Eh..." Shi Xue looked completely at a loss, realizing she had misunderstood her master's meaning, and quickly withdrew her hand that had been reaching down.

"I'm asking you to touch my lips, the wound you care about."

“...You wretched master.”

"Yes, I am the despicable master, but I don't want to see Shiyuki forcing herself to ignore that part."

"Aren't we inseparable? So we can talk about anything, touch anything, and get to know each other."

"You want to touch it, right?"

As Jiang Tang finished speaking, Shi Xue responded with a slightly trembling, yet undeniably raised finger.

The fingertips felt warm and smooth as they touched the slightly hardened area of ​​my lower lip, which was covered in scabs.

Jiang Tang is in good health and has always had a good recovery ability.

So if I don't touch it now, the wound will probably disappear by tomorrow or the day after, without leaving a single scar.

"How does it feel?" Jiang Tang asked with a smile.

Thus, Ye Shixue had another chance to touch her master's smile.

She puffed out her cheeks and sniffed.

"A feeling of disgust."

"I hate it when my owner gets hurt, I hate it when my owner feels pain, I hate..."

"You dislike another woman... is that right?"

"I hate it the most!" Shi Xue suddenly shouted, encouraged.

The motion-activated lights in the hallway turned on, and the insects, their dirty wings fluttering, cast swaying shadows in front of the lights.

In order not to disturb the neighbors, Jiang Tang put his arm around Shi Xue's waist and walked into the room.

With a "bang," the door slammed shut.

"What did Master go to do, and who was he with...?"

"That's much more normal. Don't always act like it doesn't matter what I do and you have to bear it all by yourself. That makes me worry too."

"...But wouldn't that be very convenient for the master?"

Shi Xue asked, pinching the hem of her maid outfit.

"What's so convenient about it, silly? How could I bear to make you angry?"

"The master of sweet talk..."

Even so, her face still flushed slightly.

She likes this kind of owner.

Jiang Tang answered Shi Xue's question.

"I went to work part-time at a bar, and then I met a strange woman... and my ex-girlfriend."

"Wait—two!?"

"Ah... um, I didn't do anything, just drank some drinks and chatted with the girls."

"My ex-girlfriend, An Qianxi, whom I introduced to you before, we didn't actually have a normal romantic relationship. I was just her rental boyfriend to make money."

"Isn't this a loss..."

Shi Xue tenderly stroked the wound on Jiang Tang's lips, feeling somewhat aggrieved and unwilling.

"There is some truth to that, since it was outside of working hours and she refused to classify it as a work injury."

"Pfft... Master still has the mind to joke!"

But you still smiled, didn't you? Jiang Tang thought to himself, without saying it aloud.

He used An Qianxi's lame jokes to cheer up Shi Xue. If An Qianxi knew, she would be furious.

"We just broke up, and she was a bit upset, so I tried to comfort her..."

Jiang Tang was about to continue his narration when Shi Xue covered his mouth, her gaze softening.

"Alright... it's okay not to talk about those things. The most important thing is that my master is already in front of me."

"Go take a shower, I'll go warm the bed."

"...Alright then."

Shi Xue tiptoed and gave Jiang Tang a light, fleeting kiss on the lips.

Jiang Tang entered the bathroom, took off his clothes, placed them in a clean spot, and then turned on the shower, letting the hot water wash over his skin. Every pore seemed to breathe, allowing him to unwind and relax completely.

This time, the master took a little longer to bathe. Ye Shixue, who had taken off her maid outfit and changed into a silver nightgown as soft as silk, had already lifted her smooth and delicate little feet, hugged her pillow, and rolled around on the bed in loneliness.

She didn't remove her blindfold, because it seemed to symbolize some kind of private relationship, and the only person who could see the pink pupils beneath the blindfold... was her master, Jiang Tang.

Since it was a holiday and she didn't have a part-time job at the maid cafe, the girl stayed home and painted all day, and her work was quite successful.

After all, the comic convention is coming up soon, and it would be a shame to miss this opportunity to prove myself if I slack off and miss the deadline for printing the first volume of the comic.

Of course, as a maid, Shi Xue had to please her master.

Otherwise, even if we have the comic book drafts, what can we do if we don't have the money to print them?

As she thought about it, Shi Xue blushed so deeply that her face turned as red as a peach that looked like it could be squeezed to release its juice.

She seemed never to have considered that, most of the time, she was the one working hard at part-time jobs to earn her master's living expenses and tuition fees.

The two of them should be inseparable.

The sound of water in the bathroom stopped, and Jiang Tang dried himself with a towel before slowly walking out.

Shi Xue covered her face with her hands, but still managed to peek through two gaps between her fingers to catch a glimpse of her master's overly obvious excellence...

"Is the bed warm yet?"

Jiang Tang asked.

"Um……"

A soft, sweet voice responded from the bed.

"Then I'll turn off the lights."

The lights then went out.

But even late into the night, sounds could still be heard.

Outside the detached building, under the pale white streetlights, a girl wearing a baseball cap raised the camera hanging around her neck. Ignoring the frosty night, she would occasionally look up at the room where the light last lingered and silently take pictures.

The recording continues today, although no valuable footage has been captured.

But it has been able to alleviate the girl's loneliness to some extent.

The morbid emotions continued to fester, and no one knew what would happen when they finally erupted.

Perhaps, destruction is the best end for all emotions.

A chilling smile appeared on the girl's delicate face.

The next moment, a whooshing sound came.

A pebble, seemingly thrown from nowhere, knocked the camera out of Zhou Zhicha's hand and shattered the lens precisely, the broken glass scattering onto the ground in front of the girl.

"..."

An instinctive rage ignited in Zhou Zhicha's eyes, but when she looked around, she couldn't see a single person.

Only my heart was pounding.

“I’ve been watching you for days, why are you doing this?”

Even if you could hear her voice, it wouldn't change anything.

And what was even more chilling was the content of her words.

Imagine someone who is stalking others suddenly discovering one day that they themselves have also been stalked and monitored. How would that feel?

A chill ran through my body... That's a fitting description, but not quite enough.

To be precise, Zhou Zhicha was even somewhat excited at this moment.

"Are you also interested in Jiang Tang?" She astutely grasped the key point: why the mysterious girl hiding in the shadows had knocked her camera away.

"Lord Jiang Tang..."

As if her secret had been exposed, the girl in the shadows couldn't help but blurt it out.

"I have some really cool photos of him, do you want them?"

"...How dare you commit such blasphemy!"

"Ah, I found you~"

It turned out that Zhou Zhicha had been waiting for this moment all along, seizing the instant when the girl's emotions were thrown into disarray by her words, and determining her direction.

Behind the standing billboard.

Hearing Zhou Zhiruo's words, the young girl didn't suspect anything and walked out gracefully.
