Lin Jieyu rinsed herself in the shower for a long time and then soaked in the bathtub for a long time before she could wash off the dirt on her body.

Looking at her clean and refreshed self, she felt like crying for a moment. What girl doesn't love beauty? She was already quite good-looking, but she had never even been in a relationship.

She started working right after graduating from high school. To help support her family, she worked at a bubble tea shop, where she was so tired that she would fall asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow every day. She also had to endure harassment from her male colleagues.

When the disaster struck, she hid in the shop because it was too cold in the rented room and the electricity bill was too expensive, and was easily captured.

Despite her young age, she was acutely aware of the harsh realities of society, especially when her male colleague cornered her in the storage room; she was terrified...

From then on, she tried to make herself look ugly.

Before being arrested, she decisively cut off her long hair, disguised herself as a man, and even stole her colleague's ID card from the store to get away with it.

She kept it well hidden, and almost no one noticed her. She did the hardest work without a single complaint, something even men couldn't do.

But for some reason, he was suddenly chosen by Captain Gao.

Fortunately, it was with Commander Xu; if it had been Commander Shen, she couldn't help but shudder.

I overheard the men talking about how the woman's corpse, dragged from Commander Shen's place, was covered in wounds...

Half an hour later, Xiao Gao arrived as promised. He looked at the fair-skinned woman in front of him, who was completely different from before.

After washing herself, Lin Jieyu was a completely different person. She was very young, with delicate features and a unique aloofness.

Xiao Gao was a little stunned...

"Captain Gao, Captain Gao?" Lin Jieyu called out a few times before Xiao Gao came back to his senses.

He looked away, pretending to be casual as he said:

"Come with me."

Xu Neng's room was very close to Lin Jieyu's room, and both were connected to the living room.

Just to be on the safe side, Xiao Gao went to announce the arrival of her before taking her inside:

"Mr. Xu, I've brought the woman with me. Would you like to take a look?"

Xu Neng hesitated for a moment, then reached out to Xiao Gao: "Help me up."

Xu Neng didn't want outsiders to see him looking weak, especially before he was sure the woman was safe.

When Xiao Gao led the woman in, Xu Neng was momentarily stunned. Looking at her, she did indeed resemble Wang Feifei.

However, upon closer inspection, their appearances were quite different. Although they were looking down, one could vaguely tell that they were very different.

Especially with this short hair, it's still necessary to cover it up before it grows out.

"Xiao Gao, find her a hat."

Xu Neng's words were quite different from what Lin Jieyu had imagined, and she couldn't help but look up:

"Is he the legendary 'Commander Xu'? He sounds so young."

That one glance alone stirred up ripples in my heart...

Then she dared not look up again, but her ears gradually turned red.

Xiao Gao quickly brought over a hat and handed it to her:

"Put it on."

Lin Jieyu took it and obediently put it on.

The hat covered his short hair and part of his face, making him look a little more like the person in the picture.

Xu Neng nodded to Xiao Gao, indicating that they could leave, and then tried to lie down again.

Xiao Gao was about to help her up when he saw Lin Jieyu cautiously walk forward...

She had heard Captain Gao mention that she would be a "maid" here, so she naturally went over to help Commander Xu lie down.

As she drew closer, Xu Neng's appearance became clearer; his dignified expression exuded a chilling aura, yet it did not detract from his handsome looks in the slightest.

Even with bandages wrapped around his chest, his robust physique couldn't be concealed...

Her heart was beating faster and faster...

Just as he was about to touch his arm, Xu Neng flung his hand away and said coldly, "Get out of here."

Then he looked at Xiao Gao and said, "You come here."

Xu Neng was clearly unhappy at this moment, and Xiao Gao then remembered his habit of never touching women.

Xiao Gao knew all this before, but since President Xu had been with Wang Feifei for so long, he thought he had changed. He never expected him to still be like this...

Xiao Gao panicked a little when he thought of this, and hurriedly went to help Xu Neng lie down.

I just misspoke. What "maid"? What President Xu wants is a "transparent person".

My face screams, "Don't touch me!"

In order to remedy the situation in time, Xiao Gao whispered to Lin Jieyu:

"Go back now. You don't need to come out unless you're summoned."

...

It wasn't until the woman left that Xu Neng remembered something:

What's her name?

"Lin Jieyu".

"Tell her to avoid appearing in front of me as much as possible in the future. Also, as for her background, just say that I brought her back from the steel mill when I went there alone last time."

"good……"

With the woman's matter resolved, Xu Neng remembered his promise to Chen Nian: "Xiao Gao, there's another thing I need your help with."

Xu Neng glanced at the exhausted Xiao Gao and realized that the kid had been working non-stop for a long time, and felt a little sorry for him.

"Go back and rest first. You've worked hard these past few days. Once you've rested, go see Chen Nian and help him find someone."

Upon hearing Xu Neng mention Chen Nian, Xiao Gao immediately understood, but there was still one thing he needed to confirm:

"Xu Huan...do I still need to look for him?"

Xiao Gao's question reminded Xu Neng that Xu Huan hadn't reappeared since his last disappearance, and no one knew where he was.

His undercover identity was like a thorn in his side; before he took action, it was unclear whether he was friend or foe.

After much deliberation, Xu Neng said to Xiao Gao:

"Xu Huan, you should put this aside for now. His target shouldn't be here."

Indeed, Xu Neng's guess was correct. After Xu Huan submitted the evidence against Hu Tianhao last time, he quickly received instructions from his superiors:

Hu Tianhao should be apprehended and brought to justice. If he resists arrest, extreme measures may be taken to execute him on the spot.

To successfully capture Hu Tianhao, ordinary people wouldn't even be able to get close to him in the base.

Therefore, the best opportunity is to seize the moment when he leaves the base, and the best opportunity will be when he personally leads his troops to attack the steel mill soon after!

...

Back in her room, Lin Jieyu's heart was still pounding. In this chaotic world, she had actually fallen in love with Xu Neng at first sight.

But he really is as rumored to be—uninterested in women.

However, Lin Jieyu is already very satisfied with the current situation. She no longer has to live in fear and trembling in the dark tunnel.

Looking at herself in the mirror, she felt a sense of rebirth...

"Knock knock knock..." Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

A flicker of fear crossed Lin Jieyu's mind, but she quickly calmed down. This was Commander Xu's territory; ordinary people couldn't enter.

"Please come in."

Xiao Gao came in carrying some clothes and daily necessities.

Xiao Gao felt a little awkward. He put his things away and was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something that General Manager Xu had told him, and stopped in his tracks.

He handed Lin Jieyu a piece of paper:

"This is your identification information, including where you came from, how you met Commander Xu, and when you were brought back."

"You must memorize all of these."

"From now on, your identity will be Commander Xu's woman."
