Wen Nan placed all the little ornaments in front of Qiqi, pondered for a moment, then picked up the thermos and left the room, heading straight upstairs. On the way, Wen Nan sent a message to Yu Shujun— [Master-Jiu: Guard the backyard dog house for me and ensure that the boss doesn’t appear near this villa within thirty minutes, and at no time should he approach Zhuang Yichen’s bedroom] The moment the message was sent, a reply was immediately received— Putting away the system, Wen Nan headed to Zhuang Yichen’s bedroom. Upon opening the door, he saw a slight bulge beneath the silk quilt on the spacious bed. Zhuang Yichen had wrapped himself tightly, with only a small tuft of black hair protruding from the top, as if asleep, and did not react when he heard Wen Nan enter. Wen Nan walked to the bed and softly called, "Chenchen?" The person tucked inside the quilt remained motionless, but after a brief silence, a muffled voice grumbled from under the covers, "Hmph! You still remember to come back." After speaking, the body scooted sideways towards the inside of the bed, leaving space on the outer side but still showing no intention of emerging from the covers. Wen Nan chuckled helplessly and lifted a corner of the quilt, lying down. The person beside him remained motionless, as if turned into an ice sculpture. Wen Nan thought for a moment and asked, "Is your knee better?" As he spoke, his hand reached under the covers to try and massage the other, but before his fingertips could touch the skin, the other person lifted a leg to dodge. Wen Nan withdrew his hand, "Alright, then let’s sleep. Good night." With that, Wen Nan indeed did not approach the other, lying properly on his side, closing his eyes, seemingly about to fall asleep quickly. A few minutes later, a cool body snuggled over, flipping over to lie directly on Wen Nan’s chest. Raising a slender finger, Zhuang Yichen traced circles on Wen Nan’s chest, asking, "Hubby, on such a lovely night, don’t you want to... do something?" Wen Nan pretended to be calm and countered, "Do what?" Zhuang Yichen propped up his upper body slightly with his hands on either side of Wen Nan, as if proudly displaying something to the man in front. Wen Nan, looking at the scene before him, began to feel hot, thankfully relieved by the coolness emanating from the person in front of him. Then he heard the person grumble, "Earlier, you only cared about applying lotion on my back, the front didn’t get anything." "Look, the skin here is dry, it’s peeling, and becoming so rough." Wen Nan said, "Where is it peeling? Let me see." Seeing the scholarly demeanor of the other, Zhuang Yichen snorted softly, secretly blaming the other as a "blockhead" and "unromantic" in his heart. At the same time, a system notification sounded in Wen Nan’s mind— 9527: [Your skill "Master of Cheating" is in active status, aimed at target "Contractual Marriage Wife" Zhuang Yichen... ] 9527: [Congratulations, player, you’ve successfully extracted 7 pleasure points from the target, these points can be used to maintain a doppelganger, you can either store them in the skill storage or use them immediately, would you like to use them now?] Wen Nan, his hands steady, clicked on immediate use in his mind. 9527: [Creating a doppelganger for you, the skill level is at 3, the doppelganger will have 10% of the main account’s level and attributes...] 9527: [Doppelganger creation complete, total duration: 7 minutes.] At the moment the system notification ended, a small window immediately appeared in Wen Nan’s mind, showing the same scene of the current bedroom, but from a different angle, seemingly from God’s perspective viewing a prelude to a romantic scene. Wen Nan turned his head to see a man identical to himself standing in the darkness beside the bed. As Wen Nan turned his head, the man also turned his head to the side, aligned with the small window in his mind shifting its view from the bed to the door. It appeared that the doppelganger’s actions were completely in sync with Wen Nan himself, under the control of the same brain. 9527: [Your doppelganger is in the initial state, fully synchronized with the main body, you can choose multi-thread control to cancel the doppelganger’s sync status with the main body, would you like to enable multi-thread control now?] Wen Nan clicked confirm to enable. In the next moment, the doppelganger almost collapsed to the ground like it had no bones. Wen Nan instinctively straightened his back. Zhuang Yichen laughed, "Hubby, you like it this way? Well... it’s not impossible." 9527: [Congratulations, player, you’ve successfully extracted 3 pleasure points from the target, the doppelganger duration extended by 3 minutes.] Since the other liked it, Wen Nan decided to go along with it. Now, this operation of the doppelganger was quite like the multi-control mode of doppelganger-type heroes in games, but Wen Nan needed some time to adjust. While the two on the bed were entangled with each other, he operated the doppelganger to leave the bedroom, head to the underground garage, find a car, and quickly head to Xu Zhenzhen’s house. Thirty-five minutes later, Wen Nan sat at Xu Zhenzhen’s dining table, eating the lavish meal she had prepared for him. Under Xu Zhenzhen’s unwavering gaze, Wen Nan received a system notification— 9527: [Your skill "Master of Cheating" is in active status, aimed at target "Extremely Possessive Widowed Beauty" Xu Zhenzhen...] 9527: [Congratulations, player, you’ve successfully extracted 3 pleasure points from the target, these points can be used to maintain a doppelganger, you can either store them in the skill storage or use them immediately, would you like to use them now?] Unexpectedly, just watching Wen Nan eat the meal she had cooked, Xu Zhenzhen yielded 3 pleasure points. Wen Nan confirmed, and soon saw a doppelganger of himself sitting on the sofa armrest in the living room, holding an imaginary bowl in his hand. Having learned from prior experience, Wen Nan quickly adapted to controlling the second doppelganger. While the first doppelganger sat by the table enjoying a pleasant dinner with Xu Zhenzhen, the second doppelganger quietly made its way to the entrance, left the room, and drove to the third destination. Ru Huan sat in the enclosed study, staring at the empty surveillance screen, waiting all night. Finally, she glanced at the time, thinking he wouldn’t come after all. Lowering her eyes, she tried to hide the disappointment within her, stood up, opened the door, and walked out. Just two steps out, the crisp sound of the doorbell rang. Ru Huan’s heart skipped a beat, suddenly looked up, and glanced at the entrance. ’...Could it be him?’ Ru Huan suddenly felt nervous, not daring to head to the door immediately, but instead rushed back to the study to gaze at the image on the screen of her house’s entrance surveillance. On the screen, the man was standing at the door, one hand in his pocket, waiting for a moment. Upon realizing nobody opened the door, he looked around, soon spotting the camera above him. Ru Huan’s heart tightened, intending to rotate the camera, but the next moment, she saw the man smile, raise his hand, and wave at the camera. Ru Huan could clearly see the man waving his wrist, now wearing the black wristband she had given him. Feeling relieved, a delighted smile spread across Ru Huan’s face. Turning around, she dashed to the entrance, opened the door. Wen Nan chuckled, just uttering a word when the other party lunged and tightly embraced him. Now, Wen Nan wasn’t yet entirely familiar with operating this doppelganger, almost being knocked over, hurriedly raising a hand to hold her waist, softly saying "Be careful." Ru Huan thought he meant to be cautious in the public corridor outside, promptly released Wen Nan, pulling him into the entrance, closing the door, and locking it. The lock clicked shut, Wen Nan looked at the firmly closed door, raising an eyebrow slightly. Ru Huan spoke softly in a gentle tone, "Now that you’re here, don’t even think of leaving without leaving something behind." As she spoke, Ru Huan stepped forward, pressed Wen Nan’s shoulder, pinning him directly against the entryway wall, slightly raising her head, looking into his eyes with considerable pressure. Wen Nan didn’t resist, letting her trap him by the wall, lowering his gaze to meet her eyes, which naturally carried a soft and charming expression, asking, "Sister Ru Huan, what do you want?" "Interrupted in the storage room during the day." Saying this, Ru Huan raised her hand, sliding her palm across Wen Nan’s chest. 9527: [Your skill "Master of Cheating" is in persistent effect...] 9527: [Detected skill level 3, maximum target capacity is 2, selection failed due to exceeding limit.] In the storage room on the first floor of Zhuang Yichen’s villa. Hearing Wen Nan’s words, the dachshund’s expression turned grim, dazed for a moment, quickly reacting, "You clicked a doppelganger-type skill?!?" In a horror escape game themed around conquering ghost women, the doppelganger-type was a skill disliked by the vast majority of players. After all, having multiple doppelgangers not only failed to increase the chance of escaping ghost women but rather added more burdens. Among new players, none had ever been seen choosing such a skill. Even though the other had become a Silver player and obtained the [Silver Star], in terms of game time and experience, the opponent was still considered a newcomer. Why would a newcomer choose such a skill? Carl Milak knew this man named Ye Jiu had diverse interests but didn’t expect the other to be this fanatic! However, after a brief shock, following the other’s words, Carl Milak swiftly identified a loophole, "Hah! You, a player who just entered Silver, how many levels could this new skill be? Level 2? Level 3? "At this level, it can at most only create 2 doppelgangers, all want them? Dream on! Fool—" The last part of the word "fool" wasn’t even fully spoken when the dachshund’s expression suddenly changed from contempt and ridicule to sheer anger, "Damn, did you take my Fragment?!" At Ru Huan’s house entrance. Still wearing the same suit from the daytime, the woman was currently engrossed in eating. Wen Nan leaned against the wall, controlling his system in his mind— [9527, activate the Matthew Fragment, targeting the skill "Master of Cheating."] 9527: [Detected temporary usage rights of the Divine Staff Fragment "Voice of Matthew," the Fragment effect has been activated for your current skill.] 9527: [Your skill "Master of Cheating" is at current level 3, multiplying "Voice of Matthew" produces a 3x enhancement, stacking in progress, please wait...] 9527: [Congratulations, player, your skill "Master of Cheating," has been successfully enhanced to level 9!] 9527: [At the current level, you can select a maximum of 5 targets, the storage use limit is 15 hours, doppelganger levels and attributes are 25% of the main account.] 9527: [Your skill "Master of Cheating" is in persistent effect, targeting "Young Stepmother with Strong Control Desires" Ru Huan...] 9527: [Congratulations, player, you’ve successfully extracted 8 pleasure points from the target, these points can be used to maintain a doppelganger, you can either store them in the skill storage or use them immediately, would you like to use them now?] Wen Nan ignored the system’s question in his mind. He raised his head, leaning against the wall, encountering a slightly tricky problem— The doppelganger’s attributes skyrocketed to 25%, greatly enhancing his control and perception of these units, no longer feeling like separated by a thick quilt, but by a thin shirt. This greatly challenged his composure. Closing his eyes, Wen Nan tried to calm himself, not acting like a green boy with no experience. Noticing Wen Nan’s changes, Ru Huan mumbled, "Brother Ye, sister waited for you all night, so hungry."
