Aiden originally wanted to pull the blanket over to cover her, but after thinking for a moment, he simply picked Ada up again, letting her lie in his arms, then took off his coat and covered it over her.
Thus, Ada's curled-up body relaxed again.
No one knew how long had passed, but Ada, who was in deep sleep, finally woke up. The moment her consciousness cleared, she realized that she was lying in a man's arms.
As a special agent, or rather, a corporate spy, Ada instinctively reacted, immediately jumping out of Aiden's arms and reaching for the handgun in the leg holster strapped to her thigh.
Only, just as she was about to turn around, she regretted it, because she already remembered that when she passed out, the person who caught her seemed to be Aiden.
Her body stiffened slightly as she slowly turned around, silently hoping in her heart that all this wasn't a hallucination. Then, she saw Aiden looking at her with a smiling expression.
"I originally thought after you woke up, you'd give me a kiss. Looks like your real idea was to give me a shot." Aiden said with a light chuckle, seeing Ada frozen in place, her hand still not moved from her leg holster.
Hearing Aiden's words, Ada finally reacted, quickly moved her hand away from the holster, and looked at Aiden somewhat at a loss.
But in the next second, she knew what she should do to make up for it, so she bravely pounced on him.
Aiden was pushed onto the bed by Ada. Before he could even enjoy Ada's nearly ripened body, his mouth was sealed by Ada's own lips. Then a fragrant, tender tongue skillfully slid in, just like that night in Roanapur, she was extremely proactive.
The suggestive smacking sounds began to echo in the room. With lips and tongues intertwined, both of them were a little stirred with emotion.
Aiden's big hands were moving wildly behind Ada, but he just couldn't find the entry point of her one-piece qipao. Fortunately, Ada guided his hands and unfastened the strap tied behind her neck.
But right then, Aiden suddenly remembered something, Roberta and Fabiola were still guarding outside. If they made a commotion and were heard, that wouldn't be good.
Thinking of this, Aiden could only reluctantly push Ada away. But by now, Ada's clothes had already come undone. The moment he pushed her, the upper part of the qipao slipped down, revealing a large area of white tender skin and black lace lingerie.
Ada took a deep breath, her face slightly red, her eyes filled with spring light. She looked at Aiden with confusion, yet didn't cover her upper body, after all, the two had already seen everything before.
"There are still people outside." Aiden looked at the proud peaks of Ada's chest and couldn't help but swallow. God was witness, this was a reflexive physical reaction.
Ada had no scruples in front of Aiden, but upon hearing there were people outside, she quickly pulled up her clothes to cover her chest. Yet this half-covered, half-exposed motion made her even more seductive.
"Who's outside?" Ada immediately thought of Leon. After all, she saw him when entering the village, so her hand moved toward the leg holster again. If Leon came in, she'd shoot without hesitation.
"Roberta." Aiden didn't understand what Ada's gesture meant.
"That maid?" Ada sighed in relief. She knew that maid, she had even spoken to her back in Roanapur.
Aiden nodded, "That's her."
Ada twisted around and sat in Aiden's lap, wrapping her arms around his neck, and snorted, "Since it's her, what are you worried about? Afraid she'll get jealous?"
"A bit, yeah." Aiden nodded again, but he didn't know Roberta was already jealous.
"Then just let her be jealous. Let her watch from the side, it doesn't matter."
Though she said that, Ada still had Aiden help her put her clothes back on. Of course, during this process, Aiden took a lot of liberties, causing both of them to lose control again, naturally leading to another round of verbal duel.
———
Again, no one knew how much time had passed. The two ended their passionate kiss, but Ada still sat sideways on Aiden's lap, her head resting against his chest like a dependent little bird, unwilling to leave.
Aiden had one hand wrapped around Ada's slender waist, the other lifting the hem of her qipao, roaming across her smooth thigh. Unfortunately, the gun holster strapped to her thigh was very much in the way, making him wish he could remove it.
"How did you know I was here?" Leaning in Aiden's embrace, listening to the strong and powerful heartbeat, Ada looked up at him with misty eyes and asked.
"Because we are spiritually connected." Aiden pointed to his chest. "I foresaw that you were in danger, so I specially rushed from Southeast Asia to save you."
If it were in the past, Aiden absolutely wouldn't have been able to say something like that, but now, naturally he said whatever was most moving.
Ada was a battle-hardened spy agent. The professional training she had received allowed her to complete tasks by any means necessary, and also to mercilessly kill an ordinary person.
But she was ultimately still a woman. Hearing these words, although she didn't cry like an ordinary woman would when moved, the hand wrapped around Aiden's waist held on even tighter.
However, she said with her mouth, "Smooth-talking man, do you take me for a teenage girl?"
"How could I." Aiden's hand around Ada's slender waist slid slightly upward, cupping a soft mound.
Feeling Aiden's unruly large hand start misbehaving again, Ada's face flushed deeply, but she didn't stop him. On the contrary, she grabbed his other hand and proactively guided it toward a more mysterious place to explore.
Between men and women, emotion and love are forever inseparable.
This time, Aiden really couldn't hold back anymore. His breathing became rapid, and he started untying the strap he had just fastened.
Only, just as Aiden had already undone the first strap, gunfire suddenly rang out from outside the door.
A few urgent short bursts immediately snapped the two out of their lustful daze. Ada complained with some dissatisfaction, she had just been about to succeed.
Letting Aiden help her re-tie her strap, Ada then grabbed the submachine gun that Aiden had placed at the head of the bed.
Next, the two rushed out of the bedroom one after the other, only to see Roberta and Fabiola firing out the window. The original short bursts had already become sustained bursts. Things didn't look good.
Aiden walked up beside Roberta and looked outside. Nearly a hundred villagers holding weapons were approaching the wooden cabin where they were. However, under the suppression of two long guns, the number was visibly decreasing to the naked eye.
"Sorry, for disturbing you."
Seeing Aiden come to her side, Roberta, who was feeling a bit aggrieved inside, couldn't help but say. The wooden door wasn't soundproof, and her hearing was sharp, how could she not know what was going on inside the room?
Aiden's old face turned red. He turned his head to look at Ada, but Ada was unexpectedly even calmer than him, her expression not changing at all.
Of course, even if it did change, it wouldn't be visible, because when she came out of the bedroom, the blush on Ada's face hadn't yet faded.
The best way to comfort Roberta now would be to give her a kiss, but that was clearly not suitable at the moment. Aiden could only gently pat Roberta's shoulder, then raised his gun to shoot outside.
Ada also joined in the shooting, though she stood beside Fabiola. As for this obviously underage little maid, she had no impression of her at all.
"I'm Ada Wong. You?" Although Ada didn't really like interacting with outsiders, toward the women around Aiden, she still tried her best to show friendliness.
"Fa... Fabiola." The little maid responded a bit nervously. Probably, Roberta had just told her that this woman named Ada Wong was Aiden's first woman. And having lived in the real world for so long, she'd watched a lot of melodramatic domestic TV dramas, and naturally also knew that Ada now had another title, the First Wife.
Ada was constantly traveling, with neither time nor interest in watching any melodramatic domestic TV shows, so naturally she couldn't understand what Fabiola was thinking. She did her best to show a smile toward Fabiola and said, "Nice to meet you, Fabiola."
Ada rarely smiled at outsiders. Even if she did smile, it was mostly cold or fake. So Fabiola, taking advantage of a chance to change her drum magazine, turned her head to glance at Ada, and ended up getting even more nervous from that smile. She softly said, "Me too, Ada… Big Sister Ada."
"Such a good girl." Hearing the title "big sister," Ada smiled brightly and patted her head.
But Roberta, who was only separated from them by a door, immediately had a cold expression, because when Fabiola first met her, she had called her "Miss Roberta."
Although that was a respectful address, it didn't feel as pleasant as "sister," especially now.
"Maintain firepower, Fabiola. Now is not the time for idle chatting." Roberta couldn't help but say.
The little maid was startled inside and quickly responded, "Ah! Okay, Miss Roberta."
Then Roberta's expression got even colder.
Originally quite pleased by being called "big sister" by Fabiola, Ada now saw she'd gone silent, and immediately said unhappily, "Fighting is already stressful enough, and now we're not even allowed to chat to decompress? Miss Maid?"
Roberta also responded with displeasure, "If you want to decompress, you can wait until the fight is over and let Aiden help you, rather than chatting with Fabiola."
Innocently caught in the crossfire, Aiden glanced at her, thinking to himself that he and Ada were indeed quite stressed, maybe it was time to decompress.
And Ada was a smart woman. From Roberta's words, she picked up some other implications. She took a spare moment to glance at Roberta and saw that her expression was icy cold. She immediately elongated her voice and went "Ohhh~."
Then she once again called out to Fabiola, "Little Sister Fabiola~"
Roberta looked at her once, then loudly said, "Ignore her."
"What is it, Big Sister Ada?" But Fabiola still carefully glanced at Roberta, and then responded.
Ada smiled again and patted Fabiola's head, "It's nothing."
Fabiola, "Oh!"
Roberta instantly felt like she had been betrayed. Although she had arrived a bit later, she was obviously supposed to be Fabiola's big sister.
But she also understood that Fabiola held more respect and admiration toward her, so she could accept it.
At this moment, Aiden also started to get the gist of the situation. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the war between women truly was subtle and hidden. No flashing blades or clashing swords, but every sentence was full of deadly intent.
From the looks of it now, Roberta seemed to be at a disadvantage.
Upholding the principle of "support whoever's losing," and trying to balance the scales, Aiden immediately leaned in close to Roberta's ear and whispered something. Only then did Roberta's expression shift from gloomy to bright, and her mood improved a bit.
Though the conversation was filled with many little interludes, the actions in everyone's hands never stopped. Under their continued fire, the parasite-infected villagers approaching their wooden cabin were all eliminated.
After dealing with those villagers, to avoid more trouble, the few people didn't chat or linger at the spot. They immediately relocated and, after circling around a bit, returned once again to the village square.
There had been some slight changes in the square compared to when Aiden and the others had come. The corpses of the villagers killed by Aiden and Roberta were all gone.
No one knew whether it was due to the parasites' nature causing the host bodies to decompose after death, or whether other villagers had taken them away for other purposes.
However, this minor mystery only puzzled Aiden for a few seconds. Then, he led the three women to the off-road vehicle parked at the square's exit. First, he looked inside the car and saw that the driver's corpse was still lying there. Only then did he let out a sigh of relief.
No matter what, at least they left him a whole corpse.
Gently patting the off-road vehicle's door, Aiden pondered for a moment and then became a little conflicted, because at this point, he could completely take Ada and the others away from here, without needing to continue with the following adventure.
