Leaving the bathroom, Wuxing looked through the window as he reflected on everything that happened just now and he could gladly say that he was very content with his job. He could, of course, do even better by giving her more compliments and making her feel more relaxed, but the current status was already quite satisfying.

Wearing a pair of new clothes, Wuxing started preparing the tools he would need for cooking. He found a nice pan, a metal pot and other small necessities, thinking it would be enough. The only things he needed were the crucial ingredients.

Knock, knock. Just as he thought about it, he heard a knock to the doors and announcing that the things he needed came. 'Quite efficient. We weren't playing around for too long but they already gathered everything. Not bad at all.' Wuxing thought as he walked up to the doors and opened it without worry.

When it was half opened, he could already see the two guards holding many bags of products in their hands. Who would have thought that, at that moment, Dongmei would slightly open the doors to the bathroom so that Wuxing would hear her before calling out to him, "Wuxing! Come back, I will dry your hair!"

'Fuck… I didn't think it would happen…' Wuxing cursed in his mind, not thinking his luck would leave him at that moment. He wasn't able to close the doors in time as she said it too fast and if he did so after the fact, it would make them look much more suspicious than necessary.

Wuxing knew it was too late now and he could only act it out to somehow save it. Without showing any surprise on his face, Wuxing turned to the bathroom while still holding the frame of the main doors and called out, "I will do it later! You already waited for a long time when I was showering! Just dry your hair first!"

The two guards listened to this small exchange and squinted their eyes as they watched Wuxing's expressions, trying to catch anything that could add to their investigation. They already got one detail which was their Miss willingly trying to dry Wuxing's hair which was already a big strike.

Hearing Wuxing's response, Dongmei who was in the bathroom frowned, realising that there was something wrong. After all, they were showering together so there must have been something amiss on Wuxing's side.

'Shit…' It didn't take long for her to figure out what was going on and cursed at herself for not checking out if they were safe before calling out earlier.

Opening the doors wider, she peeked through it and saw the main doors opened with her private guards looking into the apartment, confirming her thoughts. She quickly shouted while pretending to be angry, "Get your ass right here and dry it right now! I'm not going to take care of you when you fall sick!"

Without waiting for Wuxing's reply, she shut the door with a bang, making the guards ultimately confused. Wasn't Miss acting so nice to him a moment ago? Why he got met with so much hate in the span of one minute.


"Sigh, you see what I have to deal with here? I really respect you guys for dealing with her for so long. I was here for a day and your Miss is already driving me nuts." Wuxing sighed as he picked the bags from the guards' hands before adding, "Well, being here is still better than staying in a prison cell, so I guess I can somehow manage for now. Thanks for bringing the ingredients. I will start making breakfast now."

Seeing them not reacting, Wuxing just smiled and closed the door, leaving them with their own thoughts. Unfortunately, his smile disappeared right after, as he breathed a sigh of relief. He somehow saved the situation for now, but he knew there would be some complication out of this.

Dongmei who heard the doors closing left the room immediately and asked anxiously, "What did you say to them?" She knew it was her mistake so she didn't even try to blame it on him.

"I had to lie to them that I'm having a hard time here, else we would be exposed pretty badly," Wuxing explained, not being too harsh on her as everyone made mistakes.

"Uff, that's great. If my father learnt about us so soon, you would be a meat paste. I will try to be safer next time…" Dongmei breathed with a sigh after panicking a moment ago. She didn't want anything to happen to Wuxing right now.

Wuxing approached her after placing the ingredients on the floor and asked seriously while looking at her eyes, "If your father learns about us, will he really try to kill me?" For Wuxing, it wasn't a joke as that was his life they were talking about.

Feeling his burning gaze on her face, she felt like she couldn't hide the truth from him and assured him, "Don't worry about it… Only if you take me fully, you will have to take responsibility... Once someone joins the Guan Family, you can never go back… That's why I said I can't give you myself until… we are both sure of what we want. Does that make sense?"

"A little. I just didn't think your family would be this scary…" Wuxing said calmly, but one would see he was not okay with what he just heard and Dongmei noticed it.

She quickly reached out to get a hold on his face and told him so he wouldn't misunderstand her stance, "Dummy, I told you to not worry about it. If there happens to be the situation where someone from my family threatens you, I will save you. Don't think about it. We are safe for now thanks to you. My guards wouldn't inform anyone unless they are one hundred percent sure."

"Fine," Wuxing nodded and kissed her to reinforce his confirmation while hugging her tightly. Her hair was still wet which soaked his t-shirt but he didn't care about it at that point. This deep hug meant a lot for both of them, indirectly signing an agreement between them. They were already more than just friends and what could happen next only time would show.

"Let go of me, I'm wetting your shirt right now…" Dongmei informed him seeing that her hair soaked him. She was about to dry them so they were not tied in a towel anymore.

"No, I feel like hugging you more right now. What if I won't be able to do so in the future when your father forbids us to meet each other? I need to make the best use of my time with you else I might regret it in the future." Wuxing denied her request and hugged her tighter, slipping his hands beneath her towel as well.

"It won't happen… No one can force me to do anything I don't want. Even my parents. If I want to be with someone, they can't stop me." Dongmei said determined after feeling touched with his reply and let him do as he wished for a little while longer. She already got teased by him a lot today, so few more minutes were nothing.

"When I meet your parents in the future, I will make sure they like me," Wuxing suddenly said while supporting his chin on her shoulder. That declaration came out of nowhere, creating another storm in Dongmei's mind. For her, only her future husband would be able to meet with her parents, but Wuxing sounded very confident with his statement which would only mean one thing.

'Does that mean he Is really considering to marry me in the future…?' A thought appeared in Dongmei's mind and realised that she wasn't actually that against it as she originally thought. Her body also relaxed after a moment, as if what she just thought of was a natural course of events that will happen in the future and she accepted it already.

After a moment of silence, Wuxing patted her butt three times and finally pulled away from her before saying while giving her a gentle smile, "Alright, I will prepare the ingredients for breakfast. I want you to join me in cooking. Get ready quickly, okay?"

"Mhmm… Give me a moment…" Dongmei nodded, thinking if she should push him for answers right away, but, in the end, decided to pick a rather more convenient moment for such talk.
