Half an hour later, Hao Jian finally came out from the bathroom and crashed onto the bed!
"Mama Mia, Sister Lan is getting more feminine by the day... truly unbearable..."
All that filled Hao Jian's mind was that graceful figure, and the smirk at the corner of his mouth was unmistakable.
Hao Jian had been back in the country for half a month now, and during this time, he had been renting here, and Sister Lan was his current landlady!
Sister Lan was a widow living with her daughter.
"Come to think of it, having been back home for well over half a month, and with the War of Gods having been over two months, perhaps it's time to go back and take a look..."
Hao Jian lay on the bed, slowly smoking, his eyes starting to look a bit hazy!
The War of Gods was the ultimate showdown between the world's top powerhouses!
God of Mercenary, God of Assassins, God of Bandits, Spear God, the four forbidding divine beings teamed up to battle the formidable God of Death and Moon Goddess!
No one knew the outcome of that battle, but the four territories faded from view, and God of Death Island vanished without a trace!
Against this backdrop, the God of Death, Hao Jian, quietly returned to Hua City, Huaxia!
"Moon, I'm trying hard to be the ordinary person you expect me to be! Even though it's difficult..."
At this moment, there was no lewdness, no smirk on Hao Jian's face, only a sense of having seen through the burdens of the world and a touch of sorrow!
For that woman deep in his heart, he aimed to be the ordinary person that was so hard to achieve!
Thump thump thump!
While Hao Jian was reminiscing about the old times, someone knocked at the door!
The sound was soft and unhurried, just like the character of the person knocking, giving a sense of tranquility and gentleness!
Hearing the two long and one short knocks on the door, Hao Jian knew who it was. He rubbed his face with his palm, and all hints of life's burdens and sorrow faded away, followed by a slightly perceptible smirk!
"Just a moment!"
After saying that, Hao Jian went straight to the door and opened it!
No sooner had he opened the door than he quickly covered his ears!
As expected, in that instant, a piercing scream resounded!
"Ah... Hao Jian, you're not wearing any clothes again!!!"
"Ah... Sister Lan, you always scream every time!!!"
Hao Jian looked at the young woman standing before him in utter speechlessness. Her daily screams were as regular as his daily peeks at her bathing, almost without fail—a pattern not to be desired!
In front of the door, Sister Lan's fair cheeks were flush with a tinge of red, her demeanor reflecting shyness, especially after hearing what Hao Jian said. She wrinkled her cute nose and looked huffily at him:
"Hmph, you rascal, you only wear boxers when you open the door every morning. How can I not scream?"
Sister Lan was not yet thirty, tall and buxom, curvaceous from every angle, her figure drawing a perfect S-shape curve, especially her skin which was extremely tender, seemingly ready to burst with water at a single pinch!
Moreover, Sister Lan's visage was stunningly beautiful!
Her phoenix eyes twinkled, emitting a soul-capturing brilliance, and her egg-shaped face contained a hint of allure. With delicate and perfect features, she exuded the tempting aura of a young widow!
Even though Hao Jian saw Sister Lan every day, each time he felt a different sense of amazement!
"This woman is definitely a siren..."
Hao Jian let out a silent sigh.
"Alright, you rascal, breakfast is ready, come out and eat!"
Sister Lan, seeing Hao Jian's muscular upper body and the prominent muscles, her pretty face grew redder, and she quickly said something before turning to leave the place!
Seeing Sister Lan's shy demeanor, Hao Jian was even more amused. Sister Lan was a mother, yet she still had the shyness of a little girl, which indeed gave Hao Jian a peculiar feeling!
When Hao Jian had finished washing up and came to the dining table, he saw Sister Lan and her daughter Tongtong eating breakfast with their heads down.
When Tongtong saw Hao Jian coming over, she raised her head and with her bright, sparkling eyes, she asked,
"Brother Jian, you're so bad, how could you bully a girl!"
Hao Jian was taken aback and immediately picked up a cup of soy milk. While drinking, he smiled and asked,
"Tongtong, when did brother ever bully a girl?"
"Last night!" Tongtong's little face puffed up with annoyance, and her pink little mouth turned down in a pout.
Pfft!
Hearing this, Hao Jian sprayed out the soy milk he had just drunk!
Damn it, last night's incident has been exposed!
Hao Jian thought about how the mother and daughter had heard everything from last night, and his mouth twitched. He turned to look at Sister Lan, but as he did, his eyelids twitched!
The soy milk he had sprayed out had hit Sister Lan right in the face, and the sight of it dripping down her pretty face made Hao Jian's heart skip a beat!
"Hao Jian!!!"
Sister Lan was so angry her teeth were clenched, and she immediately pinched Hao Jian fiercely at his waist!
Hiss!
Hao Jian winced in pain but didn't dare to dodge!
After Sister Lan transformed her rage into pain and transferred it to Hao Jian, she finally calmed down a bit. As she wiped the soy milk off her face, she looked at Hao Jian and said,
"Don't worry, Sister Lan, I'll be careful in the future!" Hao Jian quickly nodded and promised.
"Alright, I'm just reminding you, I believe you know your limits!"
Sister Lan trusted Hao Jian quite a bit—after all, ever since the guy moved in, he had been helping her and her daughter and never did anything inappropriate. Now, with a smile on her face, she said,
"Hurry up and sit down to eat, or the food will get cold!"
"Okay!"
Hao Jian immediately sat down to eat, and the three of them enjoyed a harmonious meal. If someone who didn't know the situation saw them, they would definitely think they were a warm family!
After breakfast, Sister Lan went straight to take Tongtong to school, while Hao Jian, as usual, went out to look for work!
But just as Hao Jian stepped downstairs, his phone rang.
"Hello! Who is this?"
"Hello! May I speak with Mr. Hao Jian, please?"
A woman's crisp voice came through the phone, and her words made the corner of Hao Jian's mouth twitch:
"Sir, congratulations, you have passed our Shu Ya Group's interview! Please come to the company for a secondary interview at 8 o'clock this morning!"
