Together with the white shirt underneath the prison guard uniform, Fu Xuezhou also took off and threw it onto the curtain rod.
The silver-haired young man revealed his strong and lean upper body. Physically, Fu Xuezhou was only in his early twenties, but his body was perfect, comparable to a model.
His chest muscles were tight, his abs clearly defined, and the muscles on his back flowed smoothly like a stroke of a brush. It exuded the unique charm and sexiness of a young man.
Fu Xuezhou tilted his head, glanced around casually, and nonchalantly pulled down the zipper of his pants.

The sound of water trickling in the bathroom began, and after two minutes, the bright light in the bathroom suddenly flickered twice. Fu Xuezhou opened his eyes, and hot water streamed down from his eyelashes. The next second, all the lights in the bathroom went out abruptly.
In the quiet, dark, and spacious room, the sound of water continued as usual.
Two seconds later, the lights in the bathroom inexplicably lit up again, as if the darkness of the past two seconds was just an accident.
At the electric switch a hundred meters away from the bathroom, Lou Yan held the switch and turned to look at the panicked Wen Yian, furrowing her brows. When he saw Wen Yian’s empty hands, he asked directly, “Failed?”
Lou Yan knew that Fu Xuezhou’s possessiveness towards him was inexplicably strong, so he deliberately wrote a seemingly ordinary letter that could provoke Fu Xuezhou everywhere, causing Fu Xuezhou and other hunters to fight each other.
As he expected, Fu Xuezhou severely injured the other hunters and was forced to come to the public bathroom to clean up the blood on his body.
At the moment he turned off the switch, he let Wen Yian use her innate abilities to sneak into the darkness and steal the prison guard uniform and mask that Fu Xuezhou had changed into in the bathroom. Wen Yian’s innate abilities allowed her to move freely in the darkness. Two seconds was enough time for Wen Yian to do this, but looking at Wen Yian’s current appearance, she obviously failed.
Wen Yian’s face was pale, and she said embarrassedly, “I successfully sneaked into the bathroom, but when I was stealing Fu Xuezhou’s clothes, he discovered me! My intuition told me that if I didn’t escape immediately, I would die miserably, so I didn’t have time to steal his clothes and just fled… I’m sorry, I didn’t complete the task.”
Lou Yan couldn’t help but click his tongue. The most important part unexpectedly had an issue… But this couldn’t be blamed on Wen Yian; self-preservation was everyone’s first instinct in a crisis. Even Lou Yan, based on Fu Xuezhou’s strength, had considered the possibility of Wen Yian’s failure. After pondering for a few seconds, he asked, “You sneaked into the bathroom, did you notice anything?”
Wen Yian nodded, her expression serious. “I saw Fu Xuezhou taking off his prison uniform and hanging it on the curtain rod, but he still wore the mask on his face!”
“He’s showering with the mask on?” Lou Yan frowned, instantly feeling stuck. He had considered several unexpected scenarios before, but he never thought that Fu Xuezhou would keep the mask on even while showering.
What kind of quirk was this???
This was not good at all.
Lou Yan’s intuition told him that the bizarre masks worn by the hunters on their faces were the most important thing for them to play the role of hunters.
Without Fu Xuezhou’s mask, even if Wen Yian managed to steal Fu Xuezhou’s clothes, it would be of no use…
Wen Yian nodded helplessly, feeling very speechless about Fu Xuezhou’s behavior. She continued, “And I don’t have much mental power left. The remaining mental power can only be used one more time with my talent. If I can’t steal Fu Xuezhou’s mask and clothes in one go, there won’t be a second chance. So we need to figure out a way to make Fu Xuezhou take off his mask before taking action.”
Saying this, Wen Yian glanced at Lou Yan, wanting to speak but hesitating. Her meaning was clear: she believed that only Lou Yan could make Fu Xuezhou take off his mask. Besides Lou Yan, no one else could do this.
Lou Yan tightened his grip on the electrical switch for a moment. “You mentioned before that you once carried Wen Jiu’s body into the darkness to escape from Fu Xuezhou’s pursuit. If I manage to get Fu Xuezhou’s mask and prison uniform in the bathroom, can you use your talent to take me out of the bathroom?”
Wen Yian nodded without hesitation. “Yes. I can take you out.”
Lou Yan nodded and stepped aside, giving Wen Yian a new task: “Come here and listen to what I’m about to say. You need to cooperate with me well. If I successfully get Fu Xuezhou’s clothes and mask, I’ll find an opportunity to turn off the lights in the bathroom. You can see the changes in the bathroom lights from here. When you see the lights go out in the bathroom, immediately pull down the electrical switch door and use your talent to come to me and take me away. Understand?”
Wen Yian listened carefully to his plan, nodding solemnly. “I understand. Leave it to me, and be careful.”
Lou Yan handed the electrical switch door to Wen Yian and walked alone towards the public bathroom.
On the way, he didn’t encounter anyone—because of the hunters’ previous orders and searches, no prisoners dared to wander outside. Moreover, it was not early now. Except for Lou Yan and the others who were busy fighting back and couldn’t sleep, the other prisoners had already eaten and drunk enough and were sleeping soundly, unaware of how comfortable they were.
Thinking that it was all because of Fu Xuezhou that he had to force himself to do something now when he was exhausted, Lou Yan’s heart was full of anger at wanting to kill someone, and there was one more reason to want to kill Fu Xuezhou.
Lou Yan’s expressionless face, his footsteps light, walked to the front of the bathroom, looked at the slightly open door of the bathroom without a sound, and sneered silently, then pushed the door open and walked in.
The sound of the door opening rang out, but the person bathing in the bathroom seemed to be completely unaware, still hiding in the compartment without any movement.
Lou Yan searched the bathroom following the sound of water, his vigilance rising silently. Soon, he found the source of the water sound.
There was a figure shaking behind the yellow curtain. Lou Yan’s eyes were calm, and he approached Fu Xuezhou step by step.
Lou Yan knew how dangerous it was for him to come to find Fu Xuezhou like this.
Fu Xuezhou’s target was him, so what he was doing was equivalent to walking into a trap. But Fu Xuezhou’s identity as a hunter was really restraining his actions. If they didn’t take the opportunity on this floor to strip Fu Xuezhou of his hunter status, Lou Yan’s situation would be even more dangerous in the future. Moreover, they still needed to pretend to be hunters. If they kept Fu Xuezhou as the head of the hunters, what would they do if they were exposed when they pretended to be hunters?
Therefore, even though Lou Yan knew the danger of this trip, he had to come. He was clear in his heart that he was the only one who could get the mask from Fu Xuezhou’s face.
Lou Yan stopped two meters away from the curtain, not believing that Fu Xuezhou hadn’t heard the sound of his arrival. He sneered directly and started mocking, “Fu—”
However, before he could even finish saying a word, a few strands of silver hair swiftly flew out from the curtain, rolling up Lou Yan’s body and pulling him abruptly into the compartment behind the curtain!
In a whirlwind of motion, Lou Yan’s vision flashed, and he was already being grabbed from behind by Fu Xuezhou, his hands pressed against the cold yet scalding white wall!
Hot water poured down, instantly wetting Lou Yan’s black hair and clothes. White mist filled the small compartment, driving away most of the air, making the narrow space even more cramped and difficult to breathe in.
Even though Lou Yan knew that Fu Xuezhou might do something to him, the suddenness of this situation made Lou Yan feel shocked and angry again. The rushing hot water fell on his body, making his eyes almost unable to open. But even if Lou Yan hated fiercely in his heart, it only took a blink of an eye for him to suppress the raging waves in his heart and force himself to remain calm, turning his head to look back.
Behind him, another equally cold and scalding body pressed up against him.
Fu Xuezhou held Lou Yan’s hands, his squirming silver hair climbing up Lou Yan’s body, entwining Lou Yan’s bound arms behind his back. Two strands of silver hair slowly descended along Lou Yan’s waist, passing through the roots of his thighs and spiraling around his long legs.
After the silver hair wrapped around Lou Yan, Fu Xuezhou released his grip on Lou Yan’s hands. The slender figure of the silver-haired youth hugged Lou Yan’s waist with one hand, and the other hand held Lou Yan’s neck from behind, lifting Lou Yan’s face.
With the hot water hitting his head, Lou Yan’s eyes could hardly open. His long eyelashes trembled, and his eyelids twitched uneasily. His tightly pursed lips turned visibly red under the influence of the hot water, looking vibrant and crimson.
When one sense is impaired, the others become particularly acute. Lou Yan could feel a gaze shooting onto his face from above and behind, as if it were tangible, sliding from his eyebrows to his nose, then lightly landing on his lips.
Lou Yan gritted his teeth and asked, “Fu Xuezhou… What do you want?”
Fu Xuezhou slightly bent over, his wet strands of hair sticking together and falling onto Lou Yan’s shoulders. Fu Xuezhou was only wearing a loosely wrapped white bath towel around his waist. The towel hung on his hips, loosely, as if it could fall off at any moment.
Lou Yan couldn’t describe where the coldness on Fu Xuezhou’s body came from, nor where the heat came from. He only knew that when the warmth from Fu Xuezhou’s chest penetrated through his clothes from behind, he momentarily stiffened, even his speech becoming extremely rigid.
Fu Xuezhou’s voice contained a chilling smile. “What do I want? Don’t you know?”
Lou Yan suddenly opened his eyes, ignoring the droplets falling from the showerhead, staring firmly at Fu Xuezhou.
With the hunter mask on, Lou Yan couldn’t see Fu Xuezhou’s expression, but he could see Fu Xuezhou’s pitch-black eyes becoming deeper and more terrifying than the darkest night at this moment, with a hint of mockery and greater pleasure intertwining in the depths of this person’s eyes, as if Lou Yan’s expression pleased him greatly. “I thought when you passed the message to me through them, you were prepared not only to discipline them but also to discipline yourself.”
The thumb of the man holding Lou Yan’s neck rubbed against Lou Yan’s lower lip, making the lip turn even more splendidly colored, like crushed rose petals, and he lightly said, “You’re even more elusive than I imagined. To force you out, you actually killed three of my hunters.”
Lou Yan forcefully turned his head, closing his eyes again as if feeling humiliated, his breathing becoming more and more intense. However, he didn’t hide his disgust and disdain, his brows furrowing, and his lips, wet from the water droplets, retaining the color Fu Xuezhou had just brought out. He spoke through gritted teeth, but he had no resistance against Fu Xuezhou, as if he forcibly concealed his inner panic to show fearlessness and dominance as an injured lone wolf. “Those idiots, like you, deserved to die.”
Fu Xuezhou tilted his head, looking at his expression for a few seconds, then suddenly chuckled twice. “Then the punishment you receive is also well-deserved.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a few strands of silver hair entwining Lou Yan’s lower body suddenly pulled down Lou Yan’s gray prison pants.
