In the dead of night, when it was most silent, the two successfully kept watch on the transport ships’ determined route and stealthily infiltrated one.
From the ground, these transport ships seemed not very large, but in reality, each ship was almost the size of a hundred-meter-tall gigantic building.
The inside was structured like a factory, divided into seven levels, with numerous workers in white work clothes moving about in an orderly manner, much like diligent ants.
At this moment, in a neglected corner cluttered with miscellaneous items,.
Swish—
The zipper of the overalls was carelessly pulled up to the chest.
Huo Xianfeng pressed down on the white duckbill cap on his head, turned around, and lazily leaned against the wall beside him. His phoenix eyes drooped slightly, sweeping indifferently over two workers on the ground who were tied up and unconscious. Then he looked up to see Jiang Ci, who had also changed into similar clothes, walking out from behind a pile of miscellaneous items.
Perhaps it was the years of military life that endowed Jiang Ci with a unique sternness typical of soldiers, perfectly neutralizing his overly exquisite and radiant appearance. He didn’t look effeminate but rather unapproachably cold and abstinent.
It must be said that the same clothes worn by different people create entirely different visual impacts.
Huo Xianfeng had a lazy and casual look, with the zipper pulled only up to his chest. He crossed his arms, leaning against the wall, the brim of the hat covering his brows and eyes, revealing only his sharp jawline and resembling a streetwise breakdancer.
As for Jiang Ci, he represented the other extreme.
The average height for male omegas in the Empire was around 1.7 meters, and Jiang Ci’s height of 1.78 meters was quite outstanding, although he still appeared at a disadvantage among the tall and burly alphas. However, his back was straight and upright, his waist slim and tight, and his excellent body proportions made even the hottest male models in the Empire pale in comparison.
Jiang Ci had zipped his outerwear all the way up and his clothes were neatly arranged, turning a cheap work outfit into something resembling a military uniform with an ascetic air.

“Are we good?”
“Yep.”
Jiang Ci slightly turned his head away, avoiding the other’s gaze. For some reason, he felt that this guy’s gaze was a bit too intense.
At that moment, he suddenly felt a huge shadow envelop him, and then a weight fell on his shoulder,
Snap!
Jiang Ci grabbed the young man’s hand resting on his shoulder, his tone suddenly tightening,
“What are you doing?!”
“Relax,”
Huo Xianfeng pinched his shoulder, speaking softly,
“This isn’t the military camp.”
“….”
Jiang Ci was taken aback and turned his head away.
“Got it.”
Even though the other person’s actions weren’t overly intimate, Jiang Ci couldn’t help but feel his heart slightly stop for a moment. Earlier, he had taken a sedative in the bathroom and managed to quickly calm down.
This was the most infuriating thing about Huo Xianfeng. After teasing, he would always wash his hand of him and leave, his face immediately reverting to that lazy expression as if nothing had happened.
Smack!
Jiang Ci swatted away Huo Xianfeng’s hand, took a step back, and said coldly, “Next time, just say it. Don’t touch me casually.”
“…?”
Huo Xianfeng was slightly puzzled, not quite understanding why the other was upset.
“Oh.”
He responded lightly and withdrew his hand.
“—Fine.”
Click.
A few minutes later, the door to the storage room was locked. Huo Xianfeng and Jiang Ci turned away from the door and walked. They had knocked out two people and temporarily assumed their identities.
Next, they needed to figure out how to blend in here and seize the opportunity to enter the factory.
“Those two over there—”
Just then, a voice from the side admonished, “What are you standing there for?! Do you want to slack off?!”
A man with a big belly came over. His work clothes looked much cleaner and more textured than those of the surrounding workers, indicating he was probably a foreman.
Huo Xianfeng immediately lowered his head and spoke cautiously, “Sorry, sorry, we’re just temporary workers who just arrived and got lost.”
The team leader immediately furrowed his brow and tsk-ed. He glanced at the ID badges on their chests and cursed, “Temporary workers are temporary workers; such a hassle. If it weren’t for the urgent need from above, why would we hire such a bunch of idiots… Forget it, forget it.”
He tapped a few times on his electronic wristband and called someone over, “Xiao Liu, come over here!”
Less than a minute later, Huo Xianfeng saw a tall, thin man quickly approaching. He greeted the team leader eagerly, but was impatiently interrupted: “These two idiots are your responsibility now, Xiao Liu. Take care of them. Tsk! They have passed the security check now and are about to enter the factory. Don’t cause any trouble. Take them to guard the nectar storage warehouse 1 and count the number of nectar barrels while adding some concentrate.”
“Alright, alright,” Xiao Liu nodded repeatedly, watching the team leader leave. “Wang-ge, leave them to me.”
Turning to Huo Xianfeng and Jiang Ci, he waved his hand, “You two, follow me.”
The two exchanged glances at each other and didn’t say much, following the man named Xiao Liu. Along the way, Huo Xianfeng consciously observed the surroundings.
He noticed that the people here seemed to greatly admire white. Even the workers inside the transport ship wore milky-white overalls, although most of their uniforms weren’t very clean and were stained with a lot of pinkish juice.
—That was the juice of the Gardenia Roses.
Thank you so much for the chapter!

Huo xianfeng is too thirsty for his own good 😂
