Chapter 19 - Chapter 19: Band-Aid, Old Housekeeper

The most direct and simple way to trigger the ability of the Lord of the Companions is to kiss, right?

The prerequisites for intimate contact are met, and there is also a medium for liquid exchange.

Thinking that he might as well give it a try, Xi Nian looked at Gwen who was sleeping quietly, gently supported himself on the bed with his hands, and moved his body slightly closer.

Probe to a certain distance.

Facing the delicate doll-like face so close to him, Xi Nian could feel the hot breath of the girl gently caressing his face, accompanied by a very tempting sweet scent.

at this time.

Our classmate Gwen is pretending to be asleep.

Late last night, rushing home from the war zone on the Abomination side, Gwen happened to hear her mother knocking on the door. Still in her Spider-Woman bodysuit, she was nearly exposed. Fortunately, she made up an excuse about feeling unwell and didn't open the door. This morning, she used that excuse to stay home and recuperate.

Although she was injured in yesterday's battle, with her physique, she can recover quickly from injuries that are not life-threatening.

But what Gwen never expected was.

Xi Nian would skip classes to visit, and his mother would push him into her room. Having no other options, Gwen, trapped by her own mother, could only pretend to be asleep. As for why her forehead had a feverish tinge, it was because her body had been heating up since Xi Nian had entered her room alone.

Now.

Although she couldn't open her eyes because she was pretending to be asleep, Gwen could clearly feel it even without using her spider sense - Xi Nian, who was sitting next to her bed, suddenly moved closer to her, and his eyes were still fixed on her face, no, her lips!

Hey hey hey???

What is going on?

The girl was a little confused. She didn't make a sound on the surface, but her hands under the duvet were still clenched tightly.

At the same time, a hint of hesitation flashed in Xi Nian's eyes. He paused and then lowered his body completely.

Gwen stiffened slightly.

A subtle warm touch came from the forehead, and it disappeared in an instant.

Xi Nian quickly straightened up, looked at the closed door with a guilty conscience, and touched his mouth with his fingers, where there was still a trace of burning sensation that could not be ignored.

"What the hell am I doing?"

Xinian smiled bitterly. Even though they were childhood sweethearts and good brothers, she was a girl after all. Kissing her on the lips was not allowed!

However, the burning sensation on Gwen's forehead grew a little warmer, and there was no doubt that the other party really had a fever.

"I was still suspicious of him and almost took advantage of him." Feeling guilty, Xi Nian reached out to pull the blanket for Gwen. At this moment, his eyes were attracted by something.

That's a Band-Aid.

The three Band-Aids were originally covered by the quilt, but they fell out because he pulled the quilt.

"What is this?" Xi Nian took the Band-Aid in his hand and found that the Band-Aid had signs of use, but the bandaged area was very clean, without any blood or dust.

He suddenly remembered his childhood.

Gwen really likes to put Band-Aids on herself, especially on the bridge of her nose, pretending to have a wound, and patting her flat chest and saying that she wants to be the boss and protect him.

"Band-Aids are useless for colds, you little fool." Xi Nian smiled, put three Band-Aids into his pocket, slowed down his pace, opened the door and walked out of the girl's room.

"Oh, so soon?"

Outside the door, Mary, who seemed to have been standing guard and eavesdropping, was very surprised.

Xi Nian's forehead was covered with thick black lines, and he emphasized: "Auntie, I really just came to visit the patient."

"Really?" Mary sighed, her face clearly showing disappointment.

Madam, what are you expecting?!

Xi Nian was too tired to complain, so he continued to chat with Mary Jane, declined her repeated attempts to keep him, and fled from Gwen's house in a panic.

Xi Nian and Mary didn't know what was happening in the closed room.

Almost immediately after Xi Nian left the room and closed the door, the beautiful girl who had been pretending to sleep on the bed suddenly straightened up. Her face flushed red, and she gasped for breath, covering her still-heated face with both hands. As a result, actual steam began to rise from her forehead, which Xi Nian had touched.

The girl's brain seemed to have crashed. She was stunned for a few seconds, then frantically lifted the quilt to search.

"It's gone, the Band-Aid is gone..." Gwen was so embarrassed that she almost cried.

Those three band-aids were naturally the ones she peeled off last night when she changed out of her Spider-Man tight-fitting uniform. When she was outdoors in a tight-fitting uniform, her body would sweat, and if she wore ordinary bras and other clothing, it would be very stuffy and uncomfortable.

But vacuum is not very good.

So, every time Gwen wears the Spider-suit, she uses three Band-Aids on her body.

Last night, because I was in a hurry to change out of my battle clothes, I didn't have time to destroy the Band-Aid, so it was left on my bed.

"Could he really have been taken away by Xi Nian?!"

When Gwen thought about the three band-aids falling into Xi Nian's hands, she immediately buried her head under the pillow like an ostrich, and steam came out from the back of her head with a hissing sound.

I'm too embarrassed to see anyone!

Return home.

As soon as Xi Nian came out of the resident elevator, he saw many staff members dressed in uniform and without specific company logos coming in and out of his home.

In the living room that was being renovated with terrifying efficiency, an old man with gray hair in a suit stood there, directing the staff in an orderly manner to renovate and replace furniture.

I saw Xi Nian coming in from the door.

The old man immediately took off his hat, bowed slightly, and greeted politely and friendly: "You must be the young master of the Prince family, right?"

"Master?"

Xi Nian was slightly stunned. It was the first time in his life that someone called him that.

He didn't know whether to nod or shake his head: "I am Xi Nian Prince."

"That's right." The old man's eyes were deep and he smiled gently. "My name is Alfred Pennyworth. It's a little hard to remember. You can just call me 'Butler Alfred' from now on."

"This is my business card." As he introduced himself, he felt in his suit pocket and politely handed over his black business card with both hands.

Xi Nian took the card and felt that the other party's etiquette was not up to standard. Although he was just a butler, he had an innate elegance, and his neither humble nor arrogant manner made people instinctively like him.

This is definitely not something that can be easily faked. It takes more than ten years, or even decades, for a large family to cultivate.

The information on the business card in his hand also happened to verify this.

The words "Wayne Industries" are clearly marked on the business card!
