The music wasn't coming from the living room; it was coming from an open room upstairs, with soft notes drifting down.
The ethereal and melodious female voice, accompanied by a live band, is clearly different from the original singer's.
If the sound and melody are matched too perfectly, it's suspicious that the audio has been edited.
The name "White Dew" sounds somewhat familiar.
But because of her regretful experiences of missing out on iconic moments the previous two times, she resolutely refused to think about it any further.
If you have any doubts, think about them again in the present.
To avoid missing important information again.
In just a short while, Yun Ruolin had arrived at the spacious, bright, quiet, and elegant central hall on the second floor.
Following the sound, and along the carved and openwork antique-style railing on the right, I tiptoed toward the largest room.
You have become my luck and my master.
You heal all the wounds in my heart…
A beautiful song drifted out from the half-open door, and within the darkness, starlight twinkled.
Yun Ruolin was still three meters away from the door and was about to take another step closer when Xiao Cheng suddenly walked out from inside the door. His tall and aloof figure happened to block the open door.
Whether it was because he saw Yun Ruolin or it was an instinctive action, he closed the door behind him.
A fleeting moment.
Bai Lu saw someone in the room.
To be precise, it was a holographic projection of a three-dimensional virtual character. Although the time it took to pass by was too short to see the face clearly, the exquisite and graceful figure clearly indicated that it was a beautiful woman, standing peacefully on the radiance under the starlight in the dark room.
No wonder CEO Xiao always loves staying at home!
Turns out there's a great beauty in the family!
While Bai Lu was stunned by the explosion, Yun Ruolin also discovered this earth-shattering event, and was shocked, bewildered, and frozen in place.
However, it quickly returned to normal in the rapidly cooling air.
He handed the file folder and the morning paper to Xiao Cheng.
He then explained, "Secretary Zhou ate something bad this morning and wasn't feeling well, so he asked me to bring it over. He did call you."
Zhou Kai joined the Xiao Group at its inception and is considered a veteran, so his credibility is beyond question.
As Xiao Cheng reached out to take the documents, Yun Ruolin also handed him a beautifully packaged breakfast box at the same time.
"You haven't had breakfast yet, have you? I bought it for you on my way here. Have breakfast before you start working."
Look how thoughtful and considerate she is!
If Bai Lu hadn't personally witnessed Yun Ruolin inquiring with Secretary Zhou about the breakfast shop Xiao Cheng frequented whenever he came to the company, and then deliberately taking a detour to that breakfast shop to buy two breakfasts, intending to have breakfast with Xiao Cheng, she would almost have believed this nonsense about going along the way.
Xiao Cheng didn't believe it, and Bai Lu didn't know.
All I saw was him take the file bag and say expressionlessly, "I've already eaten."
Yun Ruolin knew Xiao Cheng's temperament well; if he refused and still insisted on sending her, she would definitely tell him to get lost.
So she wisely didn't bring up breakfast again, and instead changed the subject.
Do you often cook when you're home alone?
Xiao Cheng casually replied with an "Mm".
As they were talking, he had already taken the documents and gone downstairs.
Based on Bai Lu's understanding of Xiao Cheng, she knew he didn't like others entering his territory and was about to see the guests out.
Yun Ruolin, however, seemed unaware of this, assuming that Xiao Cheng was accustomed to working on the first floor.
As we walked downstairs, he casually remarked, as was his usual conversation during our collaboration: "I thought you would hire a chef or housekeeper, or order food to be delivered, but I didn't expect you to cook it yourself. It seems your cooking skills must be quite good."
Xiao Cheng had already arrived at the door.
Even at home, he didn't wear loungewear, but rather a suit, only without a tie or a watch.
So he glanced at the clock on the wall and reminded her, "Director Yun, it's working hours now."
There are venues for discussing cooperation.
There are specific job positions available at work.
Since the cooperative relationship has been abandoned in favor of a working relationship, then superiors and subordinates should interact in the same way they would normally.
Xiao Cheng's cold attitude of clearly separating public and private matters displeased Yun Ruolin, and she couldn't maintain her smile for a moment, but she knew in her heart that this was an unchangeable fact.
Who told her to try to take a shortcut to get close to Xiao Cheng?
In terms of cooperation, Xiao Cheng's relationship is more formulaic, while their working relationship is better, as they have frequent opportunities to spend time together.
Yun Ruolin is no longer a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, nor is she a girl from an ordinary family.
Instead, she is the daughter of the head of the Yun family, a high-ranking heiress of the Yun family, and would never do such undignified things as pestering for shelter or begging for love.
So she left without hesitation.
Leaving under Xiao Cheng's watchful gaze at least allowed him to maintain a semblance of dignity.
Bai Lu thought that if Yun Ruolin thought that way, she was probably wrong.
It seemed that Xiao Cheng wasn't just watching her leave; he wanted the sightseeing bus to give her a ride, and he even brought out the smart remote control.
Unfortunately, Yun Ruolin left too quickly.
That's another hour's worth of calories burned.
Bai Lu noticed that Xiao Cheng was actually quite kind to Yun Ruolin... even towards his own employees!
Instead of being angry when someone broke into her home, she was surprisingly kind and offered to provide the intruder with a car.
There wasn't even any warning such as "You are not allowed to enter without permission in the future..."
This gave Yun Ruolin a false sense of security, and once she got away with it, she was bound to do it again.
And this second time, they specifically chose to come when Xiao Cheng was away on a business trip.
They're definitely going to the big room on the second floor to see the real face of the woman in the holographic projection.
Although Bai Lu also wanted to know who that woman was, she didn't want to know in this way.
I don't want to see Yun Ruolin enter Xiao Cheng's house again.
Xiao Cheng is too... um? ? ?
The password entered by Yun Ruolin is incorrect.
There's also a facial recognition smart lock next to it.
Also, there's a helpful reminder that an alarm will sound after three incorrect password attempts.
As for what happens when the alarm sounds.
I was fortunate enough to witness the White Dew.
Whether Yun Ruolin didn't see the friendly reminder or simply ignored it, she assumed that since Xiao Cheng wasn't home, no one would know if the alarm system went off.
It's nothing serious.
However.
After the red alert sounded, two huge figures suddenly appeared inside the tall, heavy iron gate of the garden, startling Yun Ruolin so much that she took several steps back.
Even his usually composed expression changed.
It became terrifying and unbelievable.
Bai Lu, however, showed surprise and delight.
Xiao Cheng's guardian beasts were actually two giant Transformers, each ten meters tall.
One of the prototypes is Megatron.
One is Optimus Prime.
These are all the big guys I took a group photo with at Universal Studios, the Transformers base, a month before the White Dew solar term.
The difference is that the Megatron and Optimus Prime in Xiao Cheng's home are taller and bigger than those in Universal Studios.
Moreover, the Megatron and Optimus Prime at Universal Studios are unarmed, while the Megatron and Optimus Prime at Xiao Cheng's house each carry a long spear.
They were all armed.
Bai Lu really wanted to see if Megatron and Optimus Prime would bombard Yun Ruolin if she forced her way in.
At this moment, Megatron and Optimus Prime's two large, blinking eyes had grown red laser lines, as they looked down and scanned the creatures outside.
No matter where Yun Ruolin went, the two red rays of light remained fixed on her forehead and heart.
