    Chapter 9 Do You Mind If I Sleep in the Same Bed as You?

    Yes.

    Yuan Feng did indeed take advantage of the moment when he lost the cameraman to swallow his work ID card.

    The action was swift and decisive.

    It was reminiscent of a spy in a Cold War film, fighting for the communist cause.

    He knew this was the only way to completely destroy the evidence; otherwise, it would be a security risk wherever he hid it...

    Yes.

    Yuan Feng's identity was that of an undercover agent.

    The previous special forces member had died unexpectedly while on a mission at a certain entertainment company, Nanan Capital. His job was to continue investigating the cause of death and then dismantle the corrupt capital.

    If everything went smoothly, he would get a permanent position,

    otherwise, he would return home unemployed.

    Having a chance to secure a permanent position, Yuan Feng wouldn't let it slip away!

    Swallow the work ID?

    If necessary, he would even eat shit... well, we'll see about that later.

    As Yuan Feng hesitated whether to ask the staff for some digestive pills, he caught a sharp gaze from behind, piercing through all his disguises.

    He turned around abruptly, meeting Jian Li's eyes, and his heart skipped a beat.

    Damn, did he get caught?!

    Impossible!

    He had received professional spy training,

    there were no loopholes,

    except for the work ID in his stomach...

    "The guests have all arrived, so let's start assigning dormitories," the host guide interrupted Yuan Feng's thoughts, "please step forward one by one."

    Jian Li, standing in the middle of the line, curled his lips.

    Sounds good, assigning dormitories.

    But there were only two,

    the men's dorm and the women's dorm.

    There were six men and one woman among the guests.

    In the end, it would still be six men in one room and the woman in another.

    As expected, the guide announced the same content, ending with a grin, "Please eat plenty tonight; sometimes sleeping can be quite strenuous."

    This illogical statement immediately sparked discussion in the comments.

    "Sleeping can be strenuous? What kind of exercise? Explain clearly, or I'll start spreading rumors!"

    "Six guys in one dorm? Hehehe? My imagination is already running wild!"

    "Oh my! Is this a dating show disguised as an adventure program?"

    "I just want to ask, are there cameras in the dorms too? Do they change clothes in secret? I want to see male gods!"

    "..."

    The filming location for The Lone Warrior was a two-story building with a training ground.

    Although the building was old, it was clean and tidy, indicating regular maintenance.

    Jian Li carried his luggage into the first-floor dormitory and saw three bunk beds and a wooden table in the center.

    His gaze shifted slightly upward, taking in the six surveillance cameras and four hidden ones.

    While calculating the blind spots, he placed his luggage on the outermost bed.

    Just as he was about to sit down, someone rushed over,

    "I want to sleep here!"

    Jian Li turned back, "Are you going to fight me for this?"

    Upon hearing this, Lu Yuanhang immediately put on an innocent smile, "Brother Jian Li, you misunderstood. The doctor told me it's best to sleep in a well-ventilated spot, which helps control my condition."

    "Is that so?" Jian Li raised the corner of his mouth, "Then I really shouldn't sleep here."

    He picked up his luggage and walked to the next bed.

    Lu Yuanhang was taken aback by how easily he got the spot near the window and door, then sneered inwardly,

    Finally scared, huh?

    Trying to please me for forgiveness?

    Ha, dream on!

    Wait and see. Whatever you want, I'll take it from you!

    ---

    Jian Li lay on the bottom bunk, crossing his legs, and squinted as he saw someone approaching him slowly.

    No way, no way—does the villain want to sleep on the top bunk?

    He remembered that in the original story, Huo Xiao only chose the bottom bunk.

    And he was very insistent about it.

    Why would it be different this time...

    "Do you mind if I share a bed with you?"

    Before he could figure it out, a clear voice sounded in his ear.

    Jian Li: "...Not at all."

    If he minded, wouldn't it be like admitting he had something to hide?!

    He paused and added, "But let me correct you—it's not sharing a bed, it's sleeping in bunk beds."

    A hint of surprise flashed across Huo Xiao's cold eyes, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. "You're right; it was a slip of the tongue."

    The live stream suddenly erupted with prairie dog screams,

    "Ahhhh, did I hear that wrong? Why does their conversation sound so flirtatious?!"

    "I don't understand and am utterly shocked. Is Emperor Huo really interested in this weakling?!"

    "Honestly, they look great together, and Jian Li looks better now that he has a bit more flesh on him, without that sickly appearance!"

    "I've seen too many extras like Jian Li. Continuing to pretend won't help; he'll be clueless when it's time for the real task!"

    "Don't worry, there's panda blood with him; Jian Li won't end up last!"

    After settling into their accommodations, the guests went to the cafeteria for a meal.

    The food was simple but enough to fill them up. Then came the time for washing up and going to bed.

    After a tiring day, everyone felt exhausted, and as soon as their heads hit the pillows, they began to drift off to sleep.

    Until an urgent bell rang in their ears.

    "Urgent notice: All team members must gather on the field within five minutes!"

    "Those who are late or not properly dressed will be punished!"

    "Urgent notice..."

    The camouflage uniforms they had received earlier were beside the bed, and Jian Li got up almost simultaneously with the announcement.

    He reached out with his long arms to grab the clothes and quickly put them on, standing beside the bed.

    As he lifted his head, he noticed several glimmers of light in the darkness meeting his gaze.

    Jian Li's face broke into a slight smile, 'Not bad, comrades.'

    However, the smile vanished instantly, and he bolted out of the room like a cheetah.

    Soon after, a staff member carrying a bucket approached the window and unhesitatingly dumped the water over it.

    "Ahhhhh—"

    "Who did that?! Do you want to die—"

    Screams echoed from the dormitory.

    The already lined-up guests did not turn around.

    Shi Huayi and Zhou Nan exchanged a glance, finally understanding why Jian Li had offered his bed at first.

    It turned out he had anticipated the bucket of water hitting the window position!

    This guy isn't simple!

    They both silently drew their conclusion and withdrew their gazes.

    The instructor saw Lu Yuanhang, drenched and full of resentment, arriving late at the end of the line and asked sternly, "Didn't you hear the assembly order?"

    "No," Lu Yuanhang gritted his teeth inwardly but spoke in a pitiful tone, "I had earplugs in and couldn't hear anything."

    "Are you here for a vacation? Wearing earplugs?!" The muscular instructor snorted coldly, "The first punishment is just water; the next one won't be so easy!"

    Upon hearing this, Lu Yuanhang seemed to suddenly remember something and turned to glare at Jian Li, "Did you deliberately give me your bed?!"

    "So smart?" Jian Li smiled lazily, "Should I give you an award?"
