The next day, the morning light shone into the rooms of the headquarters compound.
The first ray of light awakened Wei Lun from his slumber. He got up, put on the clothes that had fallen to the ground, and then washed up.
He left the room after giving Qin Mutong a deep kiss on the forehead.
Through Wei Lun's passage through the room, the black jade pendant was activated, and a flash of white light appeared.
Modern garden villa,
Wei Lun is back!
Looking at the familiar house, Wei Lun took a deep breath; the modern air seemed to have a sweet taste.
Perhaps it's because I've spent so much time in the apocalypse that I'm more sensitive to the modern natural environment, or perhaps it's because becoming a Level 3 Protector has greatly enhanced my perception of all things.
Wei Lun calmed down and took a moment to experience the environment of the modern world.
It seemed that they could sense everything happening around the entire garden villa, which greatly surprised Wei Lun.
The hearing is incredibly sharp, which is a huge surprise. Could the Level 3 Enhancement Agent have this effect?
I walked to the window and observed the view of the entire garden villa area.
Wei Lun finally confirmed it: he had been nearsighted, but now he could see clearly the scenery a kilometer away.
What I never expected was that this trip to the apocalypse would bring me such a great opportunity.
The heightened sensitivity of his body filled Wei Lun with power.
He opened the door to the room and walked outside.
Zhao Xiang was carefully wrapping wontons on the first floor, seemingly so that she could have a delicious meal when Wei Lun came home.
Go down the stairs.
Zhao Xiang seemed to hear a sound, turned around, and saw the boss coming down from the second floor.
Without hesitation, Zhao Xiang immediately stood up and ran towards Wei Lun.
"Master, I missed you so much! Why haven't you been home for so many days?"
Although Zhao Xiang knew that Wei Lun had many important matters to attend to, she missed him terribly after not seeing him for several days in a row.
These days, Zhao Xiang has been thinking things through. Perhaps she really has fallen in love with her master.
Today, Zhao Xiang was dressed in a pink outfit, looking like a cute junior student.
When Zhao Xiang ran over, the white powder from her injuries was still scattering, and Wei Lun's face was pale.
If Zhao Xiang were to give him a hug, wouldn't he be covered in white powder?
"Stop! Stop! Don't come any closer!"
Wei Lun was so frightened that he immediately made a gesture to stop him.
Zhao Xiang initially thought her master disliked her, but Wei Lun's next words made her smile happily.
"Zhao Xiang, don't leave all your handprints on me, or I won't be able to go out."
Wei Lun said awkwardly, but after going downstairs, he still took the initiative to give Zhao Xiang a hug.
This time, however, Zhao Xiang had nowhere to put her hands.
"Master, since you're not home, I'd like to make some wontons so you can eat them when you get back."
Zhao Xiang said with a smile, her face slightly flushed, her eyes full of sweetness, and she looked extremely happy.
Then, Zhao Xiang immediately ran to the bathroom and washed her hands thoroughly.
Back in the hall,
Zhao Xiang watched as Wei Lun checked his phone, all of which were about company matters.
Since Wei Lun is sometimes away, and there are some company matters that require his final decision, there's quite a lot to do when he returns.
Zhao Xiang stood beside Wei Lun, her eyes fixed on his face.
"I wish my master would like me, but what should I do? Confess my feelings? What if I get rejected and then I lose my job?"
Zhao Xiang was very nervous.
Over the past few days, Zhao Xiang had become absolutely certain in her heart that she truly liked Wei Lun and was captivated by her master's charm.
Zhao Xiang made a cup of coffee using the coffee machine.
He carried the coffee to Wei Lun's side and placed it on the coffee table in front of Wei Lun.
"Thank you."
Wei Lun said something and then continued replying to messages on his phone, seemingly unaware of Zhao Xiang's tense state.
Zhao Xiang was already clutching the hem of her clothes with both hands, her mind constantly affirming and denying herself.
"Zhao Xiang, speak up boldly! Regardless of whether your master likes you or not, be a courageous girl!"
As Zhao Xiang was thinking this, she suddenly sensed another sound coming from within.
"Zhao Xiang, you are not good enough for the master. If you say it out loud, you will only be rejected, and in the end you will lose face and your job!"
Suddenly, a thought flashed through Zhao Xiang's mind, and she became extremely nervous.
Ten minutes later,
Wei Lun finally finished his work, picked up his coffee, and took a sip.
It was only then that they noticed Zhao Xiang seemed to be in great distress.
"Xiangxiang, are you not feeling well? You look like you're in a lot of pain."
Wei Lun asked with concern, as he was not a boss who only exploited his employees.
Hearing her master's concern, Zhao Xiang suddenly mustered her courage.
"Master, I love you!"
Zhao Xiang blurted out her confession, then became even more shy and nervous.
The room suddenly fell silent, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Wei Lun paused for a moment, then burst into laughter.
"Xiangxiang, I know you like me, and I like you too!"
Wei Lun replied with a smile, unaware that this "like" was not the same as the "like" he understood.
Wei Lun thoroughly enjoyed a sip of coffee there.
"Hmm, this coffee tastes..."
Before Wei Lun could finish speaking, Zhao Xiang interrupted.
"Master, the 'like' I'm talking about isn't the 'like' you're referring to. I mean, I love you!"
After saying this, Zhao Xiang's face turned bright red, like a ripe red apple, showing extreme shyness.
In order to get a positive answer from her master, Zhao Xiang did not run away, but chose to face him and wait for his reply.
Whatever the outcome, if you've mustered the courage to confess, you must have the courage to accept it!
In an instant,
Wei Lun nearly dropped his coffee, completely unprepared for Zhao Xiang's unexpected move.
After putting down his cup, Wei Lun was still smiling.
"Xiangxiang, are you serious?"
Wei Lun asked a question, and Zhao Xiang nodded frantically, making "uh-huh" sounds repeatedly.
"First of all, I appreciate your sincerity, but I can't be sure right now. I haven't figured out how to deal with my feelings, so I can only apologize."
Wei Lun sighed. It wasn't that he disliked Zhao Xiang, but rather that in modern times, Wei Lun had very high standards.
Although Zhao Xiang was beautiful and very kind to him, she was, after all, just his maid. If they were to develop feelings for each other, their lives would become chaotic.
We received a reply from Wei Lun.
Zhao Xiang was very disappointed. As expected, his master didn't like him.
Although Wei Lun's answer was very tactful, Zhao Xiang had already discerned that her master did not actually want to be with her.
Many people hire maids for romantic relationships, but Wei Lun is completely different; he has his own principles.
However, it's not like there's no chance. Didn't the master say that it's uncertain now, but what about later?
A tear rolled down Zhao Xiang's cheek, and then she nodded.
"Yes, Master, don't worry. Xiangxiang will still do her duty. I believe Master will treat Xiangxiang well."
Zhao Xiang struggled to control her emotions and prevent herself from breaking down, bearing immense pressure.
Wei Lun shook his head, also looking quite helpless.
He was just a decent-looking man, not particularly outstanding, and only a kind and understanding girl like Zhao Xiang would like him.
