After returning home, Mo Yi looked at the simple small house and began to seriously consider whether he could use the hundred thousand yuan he received from Zhu Ren to rent an apartment in the upscale neighborhood where Bai Ren lived.
Although their current residence was not far away, being closer to his partner’s place would be better. It would be ideal to be able to see each other frequently, boosting their presence in each other’s lives.
However, it seemed like there was no need to rush. It was already late, and even if he wanted to find a real estate agent, it would be too late. There were more important matters to attend to the next day, and even if he started early, he would have to wait until the weekend.
Anyway, he had finally seen him!
“006, have you detected any anomalies yet?” Mo Yi asked the system in his mind.
“Sorry, host,” the little dog in Mo Yi’s consciousness, 006, replied apologetically, ears drooping.
006 felt useless. He had observed everything clearly when Mo Yi was taken to the underground palace before. But even though he was a highly sensitive and analytical system, he still couldn’t figure out how they were sent back to their original time.
Moreover, too many changes had occurred in this world since they returned. Since coming back, 006 felt that he was clearly restricted and even forced to sever his connection with the Dao of this small world.
“It’s okay,” Mo Yi comforted. He knew it wasn’t the system’s fault.
As for not being able to contact the Dao, this obvious anomaly, they couldn’t find the reason for it for the time being. They could only face it head-on.
Holding onto his pendant, Mo Yi recalled the moments he spent with Bai Ren after meeting him.
This world seemed to be filled with strangeness at every turn, but as long as his partner was with him, Mo Yi was willing to consider him as his only reality and continue to stay here.
No matter what might happen or what consequences he might have to face, Mo Yi wouldn’t regret it. Moreover, the fact that his partner in this world was also named Bai Ren, even though he claimed it was his chosen Chinese name, made Mo Yi feel a sense of familiarity.
Thinking about starting work at his partner’s company the next day, Mo Yi immediately opened the original owner’s wardrobe and carefully selected his clothes.
Sighing at the limited selection of casual wear, Mo Yi thought about how the original owner had been frugal due to past poverty, and even the little money he managed to save was often taken by Zhu Ren.
He could only make a trip to the nearby mall to pick out a decent suit. Then he went to get a haircut and even bought two face masks.
When he returned home, after meticulously showering, Mo Yi clumsily applied the face masks to his face, something he had never done even in the world where he worked as an artist.

At the same time, shadowy figures, like tentacles, twisted and writhed, crawling all over the room without Mo Yi’s knowledge.
In the corner of the room, a figure enveloped in mist slowly materialized.
This figure looked exactly like the evil god Mo Yi had seen in the underground palace before, but it was semi-transparent, floating in the air as if it were a projection of its consciousness.
Only its dark red eyes seemed real, as if oozing blood.
When those eyes looked at Mo Yi, the emotions hidden within them were filled with a possessiveness and obsession, as if wanting to devour Mo Yi whole, but they were suppressed and restrained, as if afraid of causing a disturbance.
The surrounding shadowy figures, accompanying the mist, slowly approached Mo Yi, gathering bit by bit, enveloping the young man on the bed, and then slipping into the covers…
However, Mo Yi, asleep in his dreams, was completely unaware of all this. Even his system, 006, in his consciousness, didn’t sense any abnormalities and continued to sleep deeply.
After a while, Mo Yi’s cheeks slowly turned crimson, and the flush didn’t fade for a long time.
The next morning, Mo Yi woke up groggily after his phone alarm had rung three times.
Frowning, Mo Yi, still half-asleep, stretched lazily under the covers. Somehow, he felt sore and exhausted all over, as if he had been through a great battle, despite having gone to bed early the night before without doing anything strenuous.
Sitting up, he yawned again, blinking away the sleepiness in his eyes. Mo Yi felt uncomfortably sticky all over his body, as if he had sweat a lot during the night. He lifted the covers and looked inside, his mouth twitching in disbelief.
What on earth had happened?
Could it be because he hadn’t had any action for too long?
Feeling a bit embarrassed, he scratched his head. Mo Yi picked up his phone, checked the time, and realized he couldn’t dwell on it too much. He hurriedly got out of bed and rushed into the bathroom.
After quickly freshening up, Mo Yi put on the clothes he had prepared the day before at the fastest speed possible. He used his hands to smooth down the messy strands of hair on his head, regretting why he hadn’t bought some hair gel yesterday.
But glancing at the time on his phone again, he could only manage with a little water and a firm press.
“Damn it, I can’t be late on my first day of work!”
Finally adjusting his white shirt collar, Mo Yi grabbed his phone and rushed out of the door.
As he reached the downstairs, he saw the same car that had brought him back last night parked at the entrance of the community.
“Mo Yi,” Bai Ren greeted him from the back seat of the car, smiling.
“What are you doing here?”
Mo Yi’s face lit up with genuine surprise as he approached the car. He heard the man across from him laugh and say, “Of course, I’m here to wait for you. We’re neighbors and colleagues, isn’t it normal to commute together? Come on in!”
With that, Bai Ren opened the car door.
Seeing this, Mo Yi immediately sat in with delight and teased, “What kind of colleague are you? You’re my boss, remember?”
Bai Ren chuckled but didn’t respond. Instead, he pulled out a delicate food box from beside the seat and handed it to Mo Yi, saying, “Have you had breakfast yet? Would you like to share?”
As he spoke, Bai Ren opened the food box, revealing a variety of delicious breakfast items: golden pan-fried dumplings, neatly arranged sandwiches of different flavors, tiger-striped eggs, seaweed-wrapped rice balls, and various side dishes.
Because it was breakfast, the food wasn’t greasy, but there was a wide variety, which made Mo Yi’s mouth water.
He had been in a hurry to leave and hadn’t even had a sip of water. Now, seeing such a sumptuous meal, especially prepared for him by his partner, there was no hesitation.
Quickly saying, “Thank you,” Mo Yi picked up a beef sandwich and began devouring it eagerly.
Seeing this, Bai Ren smirked and handed him a carton of milk.
“Take your time eating, don’t choke.”
“Okay!” Mo Yi took the milk and took a big gulp, then turned to Bai Ren with a silly smile.
His partner was still as caring and considerate as ever, just like in the past. Mo Yi felt a surge of sweetness in his heart as he slowed down and savored each bite of food.
Meanwhile, Bai Ren sitting beside Mo Yi watched as the milk stain on his lips deepened in color. He licked his lips and also opened a carton of milk, drinking it sip by sip, reminiscing about the taste from last night.
His Mo Yi was always so adorable, emitting a unique scent that only animal cubs had, which was addictive.
Pulling out a handkerchief, Bai Ren gently wiped the milk stain from Mo Yi’s lips, then casually put the handkerchief back in his pocket.
The intimate gesture made Mo Yi pause his chewing and stare blankly at his partner. He really liked this kind of closeness.
After entering the building, both the receptionist and the passersby greeted Bai Ren respectfully. Perhaps because Mo Yi was with the man, everyone’s attitude towards Mo Yi was very enthusiastic.
Bai Ren didn’t let Mo Yi go to the HR department for registration but instead took him directly to the CEO’s office.
After the secretary asked about his preferences, she thoughtfully brought some juice.
After all, nobody was stupid. Their CEO was famously stern. His cold demeanor and overwhelming presence had long shattered all illusions their subordinates had about this god-like boss.
But today, he could actually bring this handsome young man in with a smile on his face. It could only mean that this person was extraordinary, to be looked upon favorably by their CEO.
Regardless of anything else, as long as this person stayed and could make the boss a bit less cold, they felt they could live a few more years.
Sitting on the spacious and comfortable sofa, drinking juice, Mo Yi looked at his partner, who had already sat down at the desk, and asked curiously, “Bai Ren, what is my job?”
“Your job?”
Bai Ren rubbed his chin, looking at Mo Yi. He didn’t really need him to work, as long as he was willing to stay by his side obediently. However…
“How about being my personal assistant? I happen to need one.” Bai Ren smiled.
“Personal assistant? What does that entail?” Mo Yi asked earnestly, almost wanting to take out a notebook to jot down notes. It was his first time working under his partner, and he was determined to perform well.
“A personal assistant is like my private secretary. I’m usually very busy with work and might overlook many things. The assistant takes care of my daily life, stays by my side, reminds me to eat, drink water, rest, and so on,” Bai Ren explained. Actually, Bai Ren really wanted to selfishly add “accompanying sleep” to the list but didn’t want to scare him away. He continued with a serious expression, “Although it sounds easy, it’s actually very important since it’s related to my health. Mo Yi, are you willing to accept this position?”
“Willing!” Mo Yi immediately answered. Upon hearing that this job was closely related to his partner’s health, he naturally wanted to take it on.
“You can trust me. I will definitely take it seriously and not let you down!”
Bai Ren: Sigh, can’t scare him away.
Mo Yi: Feels like I missed out on a fortune! (Regretful)
