Min Yu heard a customized dial tone ring on this phone and quickly pulled his phone out of his pocket. He was briefly stunned when he saw Huo Yao’s text message.

  What did he say this afternoon?

  Min Yu narrowed his deep eyes as his fingers hovered over the phone screen. A few seconds later, a smile appeared on his face before he replied: [Of course. You can come anytime.]

  Huo Yao was asking about his offer to swing by his place if she needed some peace and quiet.

  Huo Yao pursed her lips after reading Min Yu’s reply and typed: [Are you home now?]

  Min Yu: [Uh huh. Just come over.]

  Huo Yao replied: [Okay.]

  She put her phone back in her pocket before she turned and headed to the villa next door.

  Between an irritating old man and a handsome dude, she picked the latter.

  Min Yu walked out when Huo Yao reached his door. He wore a light-colored casual outfit while a look of refinement radiated from his handsome face.

  Min Yu opened the door and looked at Huo Yao with his deep, bright eyes. “Has your second older brother’s matchmaking session ended?”


  “Uh huh.” Huo Yao nodded and entered the place.

  Min Yu closed the door behind them.

  “How did it go? Did he find anyone he liked?” asked Min Yu softly as he walked beside Huo Yao.

  Huo Yao paused before she replied. “Nope.”


  It was impossible for a player to find a girlfriend.

  Min Yu suddenly pulled Huo Yao’s arm at the doorway after they entered the villa.

  Huo Yao could sense his warmth through her clothes. She was stunned and looked up at Min Yu quizzically.

  Min Yu let go of her hand politely when he caught her looking. He raised his brow and pointed at the security system on a microcomputer by the side and explained. “Input your fingerprints.”


  Huo Yao stood closer to Min Yu when she realized what he wanted to do. She was somewhat surprised after looking at the touchscreen monitor embedded in the wall. However, she recalled Yang Yi, and her expression quickly went back to normal.

  Min Yu turned on the fingerprint input function and said, “Let me teach you how to do it.”


  He stopped touching the screen and turned to the side a little as he reached for Huo Yao’s hand.

  Huo Yao immediately raised her hand and tapped on the touchscreen deftly. She had successfully input her fingerprint in no more than ten seconds.

  Min Yu’s hand froze in mid-air before he put it down quietly.

  Min Yu glanced at the touchscreen. She was able to input her fingerprint without any instruction in ten seconds. He was rather surprised by how good she was.

  His eyes landed on Huo Yao’s face and casually commented. “You seem very familiar with security systems.”


  Huo Yao clenched her fists slightly. She lowered her eyes with her long thick curly lashes blocking the expression in her eyes. “We just installed a security system for our villa, so I learned how to do it from the technician.”


  She stepped closer to the shoe cabinet after answering him.

  Min Yu did not put much thought into it. He retrieved a pair of pink indoor slippers and placed them in front of Huo Yao’s feet. “They are new.”


  Huo Yao looked at the pink furry indoor slippers before she put them on exasperatingly.

  Why did people around her keep thinking that she liked pink?

  After putting on the slippers, Huo Yao walked into the living room. She glanced around and noticed that they were the only ones at his villa today.

  “Where are your…… I mean, where are Zhuo Yun and Yang Yi?” Huo Yao swallowed the words ‘bodyguards’.
