"Young Master, you finally came out..."
Xiao Chen had just pushed open the door when he saw Yun Xi standing gracefully outside. This left him momentarily stunned.
"You've been waiting here all this time?"
Hearing Yun Xi's delighted voice and seeing her tired appearance, Xiao Chen asked, somewhat surprised.
Could it be that something happened to the Xiao Family in the past two days?
"The Patriarch said to closely monitor the Young Master's safety, in case anything unexpected happened while you were in seclusion. That's why Yun Xi has been standing guard outside your room."
Yun Xi replied somewhat embarrassedly, her eyes filled with admiration and respect as she looked at Xiao Chen.
Because of the Young Master's presence, the Xiao Family not only managed to turn misfortunes into blessings but also dominated the entire Floating Cloud City. Even the City Lord's Mansion now had to defer to the Xiao Family.
As Xiao Chen's personal maidservant, Yun Xi's status in the Xiao Family had also risen significantly, filling her heart with gratitude.
"Silly girl, what unexpected events could possibly happen while I'm cultivating in my own family home?"
Xiao Chen chuckled softly and patted Yun Xi's head.
"Prepare some bathwater and then go rest."
Feeling Xiao Chen's gentle touch, Yun Xi smiled sweetly and hurried off to do her tasks.
Before long, Yun Xi had prepared the bathwater, and Xiao Chen walked into the side room.
"Alright, you can go rest now."
Seeing the bathwater sprinkled with petals, Xiao Chen smiled in satisfaction and gestured for Yun Xi to leave.
"Young Master, Yun Xi wants to stay and help you bathe..."
Hearing Xiao Chen dismiss her as usual, Yun Xi hesitated for a moment before mustering the courage to speak.
"What?!"
Xiao Chen almost stumbled, nearly losing his balance.
"I'm used to bathing alone. You should go rest."
"Alright, I know you're worried that with other excellent women around, I won't need you as my personal maidservant and might even heartlessly drive you away."
"You're overthinking it..."
Xiao Chen gently tapped Yun Xi's nose and continued warmly.
"Rest assured, I'm not a heartless person. As long as you want to stay by my side, I won't drive you away."
As someone who had worked in a factory for two and a half years, Xiao Chen wasn't a naive fool. While he wouldn't be lecherous, he also wouldn't foolishly push away the women around him.
Yun Xi, as his personal maidservant and a budding beauty, would never be given away.
Of course, he wouldn't let a high-cold elegant lady like Medusa slip away either.
If he had to choose between the two, his choice would undoubtedly be both!
After all, in his previous life, he could only envy others from the bottom rung of society. Now, having transmigrated to another world and awakened a golden finger, if he didn't enjoy life, his brain must have been pecked by a bird.
"Young Master..."
Yun Xi was embarrassed after Xiao Chen saw through her thoughts, almost burying her head in her chest.
"I don't intend to compete with Sister Medusa for your favor. I just want to stay by your side."
She was just a maidservant, albeit a pretty one, but she knew her place. Xiao Chen could like whoever he wanted; as long as he didn't drive her away, she wouldn't be foolish enough to compete for favor.
"I understand. I won't drive you away. Now, can you relax?"
Seeing her innocent and somewhat childish face, Xiao Chen patted her head again to comfort her.
"But Young Master, I still want to help you bathe and dress. Please grant me this request..."
Feeling the warmth from Xiao Chen's hand, Yun Xi stubbornly insisted.
As a qualified personal maidservant, how could she let her master bathe alone? That would be a dereliction of duty. She had never had the courage to speak up before, but now she wanted to stand up for herself.
"You really are a stubborn girl..."
Xiao Chen shook his head helplessly, finally giving up on persuading her otherwise.
"If you're so insistent, then come in. Just don't get scared and run out."
With a teasing remark, Xiao Chen turned to undress for his bath. But as he turned, he glanced at Yun Xi and, out of curiosity, used his identification ability to see why she couldn't cultivate.
That one glance left him stunned, his pupils contracting sharply, his face showing disbelief.
