After enjoying dinner peacefully, D washed the dishes, then walked out of the bedroom with a sweet look on his face, holding Green's arm and carrying a bag of flowers.
The corridor was filled with a pleasant floral fragrance.
Green sniffed and faintly smelled the scent of essential oil aromatherapy.
The unique smell made him frown slightly.
"I always feel like I've smelled this smell somewhere before."
"......"
"Shh, don't talk, someone is coming."
D gently elbowed Green in the waist, reminding him not to reveal the truth.
Green quickly put away the expression on his face and put on the appearance of a serious wealthy businessman.
Accompanied by the sound of footsteps, a short-haired middle-aged woman wearing a gorgeous fur coat and black sunglasses appeared at the corner. The exquisite yet slightly commercial temperament emanating from her was exactly the same as the noble lady Green imagined.
As soon as the two sides met, the middle-aged woman took a look at their clothes and recognized that they were wearing designer clothes. Then she greeted them warmly with a smile: "Oh, I've never seen you two before. Are you new here?"
D covered her mouth with a smile, took Green's arm affectionately, and introduced herself: "Yes, my name is Diana, and this is my husband, Gongge. We got married not long ago."
"So you're a newlywed couple! No wonder you look so young. Congratulations to you two on your marriage. Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Pei Na, the chairperson of the management committee, responsible for managing this building. Nice to meet you."
"You're welcome, President. We're also very happy to meet you."
"Honestly, I didn't expect such a young couple to move in today. As people of the same age, please take care of us in the future."
Green glanced at President Pei Na and couldn't help but wonder in his heart, this lady is really shameless. The foundation on her face is applied like a zombie, barely enough to cover the nasolabial folds on her cheeks. She looks like she is almost forty or fifty years old, right?
Ignoring the heavy makeup on her face, Green tried to smile back, "Nice to meet you, Miss Pei Na. Even though it's our first meeting, I've noticed you're quite impressive."
D also took the opportunity to put his arm around him, narrowing her eyes and smiling, saying, "The fact that I can live in such a luxurious building and meet such an impressive person like you, President, is all thanks to my husband. His business has been very successful recently, and he's become a well-known wealthy man in the Ark."
"Is the business successful?"
After hearing what D said, Pei Na looked at Green.
With his handsome face and calm demeanor, he really looks like a young and promising entrepreneur.
Out of consideration, Madam Pei Na smiled and said, "In that case, please take good care of me in the future."
"you too."
"By the way, President, this is a small gift. Please accept it." D pulled a bouquet of beautiful flowers from a gift box and handed it to Mrs. Pei Na. "This flower is called Everlasting Flower. It's made with a special maintenance solution. Even if it's kept indoors for a long time, it won't rot."
"Can I really accept such a valuable gift?" Mrs. Pei Na took the flowers and smiled even brighter. "Thank you so much!"
You know, in Ark, flowers and plants are very expensive.
One reason is that there are not many varieties of flowers and trees that can be grown underground. The other reason is that there are special animal and plant associations that control the species of animals and plants to prevent some troublesome species from flowing into the Ark.
Because of this, except for the rich, ordinary families cannot afford to grow beautiful green plants and flowers.
And the Miss Diana in front of me was so generous as to give a flower. It seems that what she said about her husband being rich is indeed not false.
"You're welcome, President."
"Actually, the reason we bring gifts to visit is to expand our interpersonal relationships." D blushed as she spoke. She held her "husband's" arm tightly and said, "Because I got married too young, single people are reluctant to accept me. Plus, my husband likes to cling to me all the time, so it's always been difficult for me to find people with similar interests."
“That’s why I want to expand my network…”
"Ah, isn't that a coincidence? Come to think of it, how come you two are so similar to us? My husband and I are the same. That guy can't do anything without me. He even has to go to parties with me, haha." Mrs. Pei Na greeted happily, then handed over a business card: "Speaking of parties, are you two interested in joining us?"
"Hey, what kind of party is this?"
"The couples' kind is where many couples get together to chat, strengthen their friendships, and occasionally discuss business matters." Mrs. Pei Na smiled and said, "My husband has been very busy lately, so he hasn't been there for a while. If you want to go, I can recommend one for you."
"Really? Thank you so much!" D said to Mrs. Pei Na with gratitude on his face, "President Pei Na, you are truly an amazing person. I'm so lucky to be neighbors with someone like you."
"Oh hehe~"
"You're welcome. As a neighbor, it's my honor to help you."
"That's all, I still have things to do. By the way, if you have any tips on how to make money, why not come to my room and discuss it? My husband is also a very good entrepreneur, one of the top three in Ark!" Mrs. Pei Na extended an olive branch.
"Okay, we'll definitely go if we have time."
"Goodbye, Mrs. Pena!"
"see you later."
Mrs. Pei Na turned away with a little reluctance. It was obvious that she really wanted to discuss a business deal with Green, to sound him out and ask him what business he made his money in.
But considering that the relationship between the two parties was not that deep, Pei Na decided to discuss this topic again in two days.
Green and D watched the middle-aged woman, who was a bit materialistic but loved her husband very much, disappear around the corner. After a moment, they looked at each other.
"Wife, shall we go back?"
"......"
"When you're alone, you don't have to call me wife." D raised the corner of his mouth and said, "But it's okay if you're used to it."
"Your acting is really good. Honestly, just now, I couldn't tell you were a killer." Green praised her acting and asked, "What do we do next?"
"We've got the business cards and invitations. Next, we'll visit a few more neighbors and ask if anyone else has attended any parties recently. As for Camilla, there's no need to go to her room; that woman rarely comes back. In short, we need to build good relationships with these nobles and show our faces around them more often. Once we get to know them well, they'll naturally invite us to Camilla's parties."
D whispered, but quickly put on a sweet face: "So, honey, let's go?"
......
It's been a busy day.
Green and D returned to his new home, ready to finish the day's work and rest for the night.
Today's gains were not too great. The two of them knocked on all the neighbors' doors and only found a few clues. The nobles who had attended Camilla's parties seemed to be preoccupied during the conversation and kept silent about their recent itineraries.
Green sat in a chair, recalling the expressions and words of those nobles, then looked at D beside him: "D, what do you think?"
D didn't say anything, just turned his back.
"Ah, sorry."
"Diana, what do you think?"
"I don't have any particular opinion. If I had to say, I think Camilla might be running a cult, or throwing some kind of heavy-handed party." D finally spoke after hearing him change his address. "Of course, we can't rule out the possibility that these people are secretly planning something, perhaps a coup or a financial crisis. In short, to find out the truth, we must sneak into tomorrow's party as a couple."
“Don’t forget who you are.”
"I'm a very successful businessman. Of course I haven't forgotten that." Green repeated his identity and then curled his lips. "That woman just now, she looked at me with such enthusiasm. She already lives in such a luxurious villa, but the desire for money in her eyes is still fanatical and exaggerated. She's already so rich, but she's still not satisfied. Are all the nobles in the Ark like this?"
"For people like them, money is never enough." D closed his eyes and narrated softly, "Okay, let's stop talking about this."
"Don't forget, the party starts promptly at 11 o'clock tomorrow morning. Go to bed now."
"it is good."
"I'm going to take a shower, how about you?"
"Niki doesn't need to rest, just do your job."
Green took off his clothes and went to the bathroom.
The facilities in this mansion are really exaggerated. The bathtub in front is almost as big as a small swimming pool.
Even though he had seen many rich people, it was hard for him to imagine that in this end times, there could be such a luxurious and extravagant place. It was no exaggeration to say that every facility here was filled with the stench of corruption and money.
"If the money for building the mansion had been used to make weapons and Nikki, how could he have been forced to this point by Letcher..."
"Ugh."
"As expected, wherever humans exist, there's never true fairness." Green sighed softly and gently applied shower gel to his arms. "Ordinary people who haven't been to the surface would probably just think that the so-called Commander and Nikki are just government excuses to siphon tax dollars, right?"
"Forget it, don't think about it anymore."
Took a quick shower.
Green changed into a loose white shirt and gray shorts.
The night is just right.
Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, the night view of the Royal Avenue is so prosperous and attractive. The colorful lights are spread throughout the city, illuminating the dark underground.
Green returned to the bedroom and just as he lay down on the double bed which was five or six meters long and wide, he noticed a dark shadow sitting on the edge of the bed.
That was none other than his "wife" D.
The seductive gray hip-hugging miniskirt outlined her graceful figure. Under the dim light, D's face looked a little cold. She sat on the edge of the bed, slightly tilted her head, and watched Green on the bed with the corner of her eye.
After the two looked at each other, Green asked, "Did I walk into the wrong room?"
D raised the corner of his mouth and replied, "No, this is our bed, you can sleep there."
Green: "What about you?"
D: "I won't sleep. I want to stay by your side to prevent any emergencies."
Green shook his head. "There shouldn't be any unexpected situations here. Our disguise is very good, and no one should be able to detect our true intentions."
D closed his eyes and whispered, "But it's better to be careful."
Green sat up and looked at her exposed shoulder and the butterfly tattoo engraved on it. "Is this how you live every day, Diana?"
"Which one do you mean?"
"The kind where I sit at the head of the bed but can't fall asleep."
"..."
"probably."
As Nikki, D has long been accustomed to life without sleep.
Not to mention that a killer with blood on his hands rarely gets a good night's sleep. Secondly, she is not the kind of girl who lives in the sunshine and can happily work, study, and get married. Not even a girl, but Nikki.
Whenever night falls, D likes to sit alone quietly.
She liked the feeling of silence. When she looked out the window in the early hours of the morning and saw that everyone was lying in bed and no longer making noise, the loneliness in her heart that had long been walking in the shadows would be more or less alleviated.
"Diana."
"Do you ever feel lonely doing this job?"
“…No.”
"Yeah, it can be a bit lonely sometimes."
"Then sleep together, like a real couple."
"Are you sure?" D's eyes wandered. Sitting on the bed, her shoulders half exposed, the atmosphere in the room seemed even more seductive. Green could tell she was indeed thinking that, but due to her duties as a killer, she didn't move. "But I have to keep you safe."
"No one needs protecting here."
"Even if there is, it should be the husband who protects his wife."
Diana is a newlywed wife. She has a gentle personality and obeys her husband's words. Because she is in the prime of her life, she likes to stick to her husband.
Greene recalled the setting she had written for herself.
He reached out and gently put his arm around D's exposed shoulders.
Sure enough, just like the setting she had written for herself, she fell on the bed and let his warm big hands hold her tightly in his arms.
"Diana..."
She gently placed her finger on his lips, declining the meaningless love words.
"kiss Me."

D's lips were very cold, and kissing him felt like an icy dagger.
But her body was burning hot.
Green held her hot palm tightly and kissed her.
