What do we need to do?
Xia Che's body stiffened instinctively. In an instant, all sorts of images, both playable and unplayable, flashed through his mind like a slideshow.
To be honest, every frame of these images was incredibly alluring to a virgin. For Xia Che, these images were like an unknown primeval jungle, drawing him in for an adventure and stirring his young heart.
Fortunately, Xia Che's wild thoughts did not come true.
Xia Che felt a slight chill on his neck; Cao Ying seemed to have put something on him. Before he could finish wondering, he heard Cao Ying's gentle, smiling voice: "You can open your eyes now, Master."
What did you put on me?
When Xia Che opened his eyes again, Cao Ying had already sat back down properly, tilting her head slightly and smiling at him, the tenderness in her eyes seeming to solidify into threads.
Looking down, you see a small, heart-shaped gemstone, entirely a deep blue color, strung on a small black cord.
Xia Che couldn't tell what the heart-shaped gemstone was made of, but he was surprised to find that the rope was made of a very expensive material. Apart from the initial coolness when he first put it on, it had now become soft and extremely skin-friendly, a material he couldn't quite describe. It was so comfortable that he couldn't even feel that he was wearing a necklace.
"Sapphire is one of the purest materials in the world and is hailed in the West as a symbol of wisdom and truth. But in China, it has another interpretation: protection, peace, success, and wealth, and... I can't tell you for now, hehe."
Cao Ying smiled smugly, "This is a small piece of the 'Tears of Atlantis' that I asked people at the base to work overnight to produce. Fortunately, the sapphire that the Xing family obtained was an unprocessed semi-finished product, so it was easy to cut. I chose the purest part and made it into a heart-shaped necklace."
"Of course, you can call it a pendant if you want. Anyway, I don't think there's any difference between the two names. I can't be by your side every day, so touch this necklace when you miss me and treat it as me."
The tenderness in Cao Ying's eyes almost overflowed from her clear, autumn-water-like eyes. She knew that now that the Xing family had come to Jiang City, she would definitely have to take on many relatively dangerous missions in the future in order to protect her master, but it was all worth it. She just wanted Xia Che to be safe and sound.
"...I understand, thank you."
Xia Che touched the heart-shaped sapphire, feeling a heavy weight in his heart. Although this sapphire was not as valuable as the whole piece, it was more artistic, and even a small piece cut off would be very valuable and could sell for an astronomical price.
but……
Sapphires have a price, but what about the symbolism a girl uses to represent them?
This pendant embodies a girl's deep affection, the weight of which is immeasurable.
Xia Che let out a deep breath, looked at Cao Ying seriously, and repeated, "Thank you."
"Hehe, why are you being so polite with me..."
A blush immediately spread across Cao Ying's face. Nothing could be more intoxicating than the gratitude of one's beloved.
"Now he's really living off a woman."
Xia Che shrugged, somewhat helplessly.
I was just saying it before, but I never thought it would actually come true today.
If this pendant were sold, it could fetch at least eight figures, enough to live comfortably for the rest of my life, even if I were to retire from public life.
The money problems that have been bothering you will no longer be problems.
but……
"I can't sell her! Sigh, this silly girl, how can I bear to let her down?"
Xia Che shook his head, a heavy feeling weighing on his heart.
"You know, everything I have is yours if you want it."
Upon hearing this, Cao Ying's eyes lit up with joy, and she wanted to strike while the iron was hot. "Why don't you move in with me? We can live together. Every time I finish a mission, I can come back and be with you. And if that old bastard Xing Zhicheng tries to do something to you, I can protect you."
Cao Ying secretly began to make her own plans. She knew what her four sisters were thinking; without exception, they all coveted their master, and their methods might be even more despicable than hers.
I must get there first and devour my master's virginity before they do.
The remaining sisters could only drink their own leftover soup...hehe.
Thinking of this, Cao Ying's lips curled up, revealing a cunning, devilish glint.
Sisters shouldn't scheme against each other; are we supposed to give them the meat that's right in front of us?
"Forget it, I still have to go to school, and do you think I'm the kind of person who would live off a woman?"
Xia Che shook his head. Although he was tempted, it was unrealistic.
Let Cao Ying go out and fight, and give her all the money she earns through hard work?
Forget it, that's too cheap.
“Listen, Xiaoying, when the Xia family was still around, I was young and didn’t understand things. So, the family’s arrangements, like you all serving me as your master and being my slaves… those are all in the past. Now, the Xia family is practically gone, at least in China, so…”
"I would rather see you find your own goals than live for me, and then live for those goals. You are not my vassals; those are just remnants of an outdated era."
“Anyway, I have already been abandoned by the Xia family. I don’t intend to abide by their corrupt rules. Moreover, I really can’t treat you who have taken care of me since I was a child as slaves. Doing so would go against my conscience.”
Xia Che calculated the time and realized it was almost time to leave. He stood up, touched the pendant hanging on his chest, felt the cool touch of the sapphire, smiled, and said, "This is your token of affection, and I won't refuse it. But I hope you can seriously consider what I just said. In my heart... I have always regarded you four sisters as my own sisters."
"I have to go now, I have things to do. Thank you again for the gift, I will cherish it."
Looking at Cao Ying, who was clearly stunned, Xia Che smiled gently. After thinking for a moment, he stepped forward and gently hugged Cao Ying. Her delicate body stiffened slightly, and then a flush of heat rose on her cheeks. Xia Che understood that this girl was not as frivolous as she appeared. Only he knew how conservative Cao Ying was inside.
So it's not surprising that he gave her a light hug, then let go and turned to leave.
Snap—
The soft sound of the door closing rang out, like the plucked strings of a zither, and Cao Ying, who had been in a daze, gradually came to her senses.
She took a breath, feeling her face burning red. She cupped her cheeks in her hands, trying to cool them down with her icy hands.
Gradually, a strange light suddenly appeared in Cao Ying's eyes.
"It is precisely your gentleness that fascinates me the most."
"Sister? Ha..."
"I'm even more attracted to you now, I feel like I want to devour you right now, what should I do?"
