Hearing my voice, Feng Chuan knitted his eyebrows and looked deeply at me. He didn't say anything but pulled my hand to check my wound.

He took out a handkerchief from his bosom and tied it around my hand. Then, he took out half of the jade pendant and stuffed it into my hand.

"Help me take care of him."

What? A good safekeeping? I was slightly surprised. What did he mean by that? He didn't need me to compensate him, but wanted to give him to me?

"Boss …" Aren't you angry? "

Feng Chuan didn't say anything. He just calmly looked at me before he turned around and left!

"Boss …" Just as I was about to speak, I suddenly felt the world spin in front of me. In the next moment, I felt as though my vision had turned dark and I crashed heavily onto the ground.

It had been a long time since I had a dream, but this time I had a very strange dream.

I dreamt of a man wearing armor. He had a handsome face and held a treasured sword in his hand. He stood valiantly in front of me.

He didn't say anything and only looked at me with a faint smile. From his appearance, I could see that he was slowly combining his outer appearance with Feng Yan's.

He opened his mouth and spoke to me, but I couldn't hear him. I could only watch as his mouth kept opening and closing.

I wanted to get a little closer to him, to hear what he was saying, but when I took just one step forward, I felt a sudden whirlpool surge toward me, spinning.

The next second, I abruptly opened my eyes.

Looking at the white ceiling, I straightened up and panted heavily.

Was that a dream? I actually dreamt of being sealed off just like that?

Am I in a fit of heat?

I vigorously shook my head, suddenly realizing that I had already returned to my bed. Beside my pillow was the jade pendant that Feng Chuan had stuffed in my hands last night. It seemed that he had carried me back last night as well.

I let out a long sigh and looked at the time on my phone by my pillow. I think I should get up and go to work …

I stretched my body and slowly got up from the bed. After putting on my clothes and washing up, I opened the door.

As soon as I opened the door, I heard a girl's bell-like laughter.

But when I walked into the shop, the laughter stopped.

Only then did I see two girls sitting on the sofa. They were both around sixteen to seventeen years old; one was pretty and cute, and the other was beautiful and delicate. When she smiled, she covered her mouth with her hand, looking like a lady from a noble family.

What was going on?

"You're up."

Seeing that I had come out, Grandpa Wen's gaze darkened for a moment, but quickly returned to the kind smile that he had when I had first seen him.

"Yes, Grandpa Wen, what do I have to do today?"

"No need, come over here first. Let me introduce you."

I nodded and slowly walked over. Looking at the two unfamiliar little girls in front of me, I revealed my most kind smile.

"Come, let me give you a good introduction. This is Wan Zhi. This is Min Min."

"Hello everyone, I'm Baimei Ya."

Wan Zhenghao is that girl who looks like a lady from a noble family. She had a gloomy face and even had a disdainful look when she greeted me. Min Min Min, on the other hand, waved at me with a sweet smile.

"Hello, Mia."

All of a sudden, my affability level with this girl called Min Min increased by 100%!

"Grandpa Wen, why is she here!?" When Wan Zhi saw the look of disgust on my face, he ruthlessly frowned as he looked at me in displeasure.

"If a fated person comes, he won't refuse anyone who comes." Grandpa Wen laughed heartily as he picked up the teacup in his hand and took a sip. He said something that I didn't understand at all.

Wan Zhi's face became even gloomier. He didn't say anything, but stood up from his chair and left.

I stood dumbly on the spot, unable to conceal the unfriendly aura that I was emitting from Wan Zhi's body, making me feel exceptionally awkward.

"Sister Mia, don't blame Wan. She's like that." Min Min blinked her big eyes at me and smiled apologetically.

There was nothing else I could say, so I could only smile and shake my head. "It's alright. After all, I'm new here, so everyone is still unfamiliar with me."

"Un, Miya is so good!" Min Min Min smiled at me and said, "There are very few outsiders on our side. Previously, there were a lot of people who came to interview us in silence. Unfortunately, most of them couldn't last for more than two days before leaving."

"Why did he leave after barely two days?"

Min Min blinked her eyes. "I don't know either. Alright, I still have work to do. I'll be leaving first."

Before I could ask further, Min Min had already disappeared from my sight.

This girl walked so fast?

After all, I came here to work, so I have to go to work properly. As for me, my current job is to clean up the house.

Halfway through my scan, I was about to take a rest when Feng Chuan suddenly appeared beside me. In his hand was a teacup that he handed to me.

"This is for me?" I pointed at myself in disbelief.

"It seems like you're the only one here." He looked at me snappily. "Let's see if you like it or not."

Hearing this, I was really flattered. My boss actually personally passed me a cup of tea. I hurriedly accepted the cup and took a sip.

Hm! Delicious! My eyes immediately widened. I didn't know what was in the water. It was sour, sweet, and very tasty!

Seeing me like this, Feng Chuan's gaze that was a little serious finally relaxed and revealed a smile. "It seems that your taste hasn't changed."

"Hmm? "Boss, what did you say?"

I frowned. My taste hasn't changed? But to my mind, this seemed to be my first drink.

He shook his head at me, then reached out and touched my head. He didn't say anything.

This intimate gesture of closing the cup of tea really made me feel a little shy.

After a short while, I turned around and left while continuing to clean the house. I thought that I really had nothing else to do besides cleaning the house. There were no guests, so I didn't know what to do other than clean the house.

"Hey!" "You!"

"Huh?" I dazedly replied as I lifted my head. I didn't know when Wan Zhi had walked behind me, but she was looking at me arrogantly.
