On Qin Luo's side.
He had a matter-of-fact expression as he smiled and said, "What are you saying, young miss?"
"As your personal attendant, isn't it my duty to take care of such small matters?"
"Young miss fainted last night, so your clothes are intact. You just need to put on socks to start a new day of work."
As he spoke, Qin Luo raised his hand, holding a pair of brand new black ankle socks.
Hearing this, Su Muwan was a bit troubled: "But... but..."
"This kind of thing... why don't I do it myself..."
Before she could finish, Qin Luo interrupted righteously: "Young miss, that's not right!"
"You will inherit the Su Family in the future! Leave these small matters to me, your personal attendant!"
"From now on, I will take full responsibility for your daily life, allowing you to focus entirely on managing the family!"
Hearing this, Su Muwan looked at the socks in Qin Luo's hand, then at his loyal expression.
She felt a bit guilty inside.
This Qin Luo was most likely truly thinking of her best interests, yet she had been considering dismissing him.
Perhaps, for him, serving her was his basic duty as an attendant.
If she refused him, he might be upset for the entire day.
She shouldn't disappoint such a loyal attendant.
That's right, Su Muwan, don't overthink it. Qin Luo has no ill intentions. Look at how devoted he is.
He's like my number one follower, absolutely only thinking about how to serve me, the young miss, well!
That's right.
Thinking this, Su Muwan lightly bit her lip, her cheeks flushing slightly red as she tried to keep her voice steady: "Alright, then be quick about it."
With that, she lifted the blanket, revealing a pair of jade-like feet to Qin Luo's eyes.
Then, Qin Luo put on a gentlemanly face. With a solemn expression, his movements were gentle and delicate. He carefully took the black short socks in his hand, first gently opening the cuff, then carefully slipping Su Muwan's foot into the sock.
Qin Luo's fingers deftly turned at Su Muwan's ankle, pulling the sock smoothly up above the ankle, ensuring every inch of skin was perfectly wrapped by the sock, neither too tight nor too loose.
Although she felt a bit strange inside, seeing that Qin Luo made no other inappropriate moves, Su Muwan gradually relaxed.
She looked at Qin Luo.
His movements were smooth and natural, his gaze focused and solemn, as if performing an important ritual.
Is putting on socks for someone such a solemn matter?
Su Muwan had never experienced this feeling before, someone so utterly devoted to her.
She had never encountered such a person in her previous life.
"All done, young miss."
After finishing, Qin Luo stood up and said with a smile to Su Muwan: "This servant guesses that the young miss has been fainting recently due to overworking on family matters, and possibly due to low blood sugar."
"So... this servant has specially prepared some handmade candies for the young miss, which should be more effective."
Saying this, Qin Luo placed the candies on the bedside table.
Then he pushed the food cart and, seeing Su Muwan's dazed expression, smiled and said: "This servant will go downstairs to attend to the guests now."
Click~
The door closed.
Su Muwan sat on the edge of the bed, looking down at the handmade candies Qin Luo had prepared for her.
At that moment, a warm feeling flowed through Su Muwan's heart.
She gently covered her chest.
What a... strange feeling...
Qin Luo's gaze was clear, without a trace of impurity in his eyes.
He... was purely doing these things out of loyalty to her.
But... but why?
Why would he be so utterly devoted to her?
Outside the door, Qin Luo's initially gentlemanly facade could no longer be maintained.
He gleefully looked at the [Loyalty Points] he had gained on his status panel.
[Loyalty Points: 10 points]
His early morning attentiveness was naturally not for those explosively fragrant jade feet.
It was purely to gain some loyalty points, absolutely no other thoughts involved.
Last night he had cultivated the "Loyal Dog Heart Sutra", which was why he came to perform his daily dog duties this early morning.
Looking at it this way, the effect was indeed not bad.
Just not sure what the loyalty points are actually used for.
But it's alright, it should become apparent in the upcoming battles.
Thinking of this, Qin Luo hummed an unknown tune as he pushed the food cart downstairs.
.....
....
Moments later.
In the first-floor reception room.
Lin Wanrong sat anxiously on the sofa, unable to keep still.
She had brought many gifts this time to apologize, aiming to make Su Muwan forgive the rude behavior of her useless live-in son-in-law at yesterday's ball.
However, Su Muwan had yet to appear. Could it be that she didn't want to forgive them?
What to do, what to do.
At this moment,
The live-in son-in-law Dragon King Xiao Tian sat nearby, his cheeks somewhat swollen, causing his speech to sound a bit comical.
He shook his head and said: "Wanrong, don't be so nervous. Even if Su Muwan doesn't forgive us, I have ways to make the Lin Group stand at the top of Jiang City."
As he spoke, his tone became arrogant: "I have affiliates of various sizes all over the world under my command. With just one word from me, I can make them provide tens of thousands of orders for the Lin Group."
As soon as he finished speaking,
Lin Wanrong stood up in disbelief, quickly walked to Xiao Tian's front, and then raised her hand in anger.
Slap!!
"You useless thing! How can you still be so full of yourself at a time like this!"
"You worthless piece of trash, I'm telling you, when Miss Su comes, you just shut your mouth and kneel down to apologize! Do you understand?!"
In her disappointment, Lin Wanrong couldn't believe that even at this moment, Xiao Tian was still talking nonsense!
Xiao Tian held his cheek, clenching his fists, his heart filled with bitterness.
Why didn't his wife believe his words?
At this moment,
A cool voice came.
"Miss Lin, this is the Su Family home. If you want to hit someone, please do it outside."
Hearing this, Lin Wanrong's expression immediately brightened.
She quickly raised her head to look at the source of the voice.
It was none other than Su Muwan and that handsome attendant behind her!
They walked in slowly, exuding a powerful presence.
"Miss Su, I... I just couldn't control myself for a moment, because this useless man was talking big again."
"Look, I specially brought these things to apologize and make amends."
Lin Wanrong lowered her head, smiling nervously.
Su Muwan glanced at the luxury items in the reception room and nodded slightly.
She hadn't intended to provoke the Dragon King's family in the first place.
If they could just turn over a new leaf like this, it wouldn't be a bad thing.
Thinking of this, Su Muwan revealed a slight smile and said: "In that case, let's consider the past matters water under the bridge."
"Your Lin family and my Su family are still the best of friends in the business world."
Hearing these words, Lin Wanrong immediately beamed with joy. She quickly nodded: "Thank you, Miss Su!"
After saying this, she seemed to remember something and turned her head angrily towards Xiao Tian, who was still sitting motionless: "Useless trash! Come over here and kneel down to apologize to Miss Su!"
Uh... actually, there's no need...
Su Muwan's expression stiffened. She raised her hand, wanting to say something when
Xiao Tian clenched his fists and resisted: "I, as the Dragon King, how could I bow my head and apologize to a mere Su Family young miss!"
"You!"
Lin Wanrong's face immediately turned pale. Just as she was about to angrily go forward and drag him over to kowtow and apologize,
An angry roar came from outside: "How audacious!! This is the Su Family home! How dare a youngster like you run wild here!"
Su Muwan was stunned, and everyone looked up.
They saw a figure with an extraordinary demeanor walk in with an angry expression.
Behind him followed a group of bodyguards carrying boxes.
From their uniforms, it was clear they were from the Antique City Association.
Su Muwan tilted her head. Hm?
Why did Long Dingtian come? Could it be because of...
She turned her head, stiffly looking at the smiling Qin Luo.
But before she could say anything,
Qin Luo seemed to have read Su Muwan's mind.
He immediately stepped forward as if to claim credit.
"Heh, that's right!"
"Since when did this place become somewhere for a useless person like you to run wild?"
Qin Luo walked out from behind Su Muwan with an angry expression.
He looked at Xiao Tian with a cold sneer: "How dare a mere son-in-law of the Lin family act so arrogantly? Originally, my young lady was prepared to forgive your actions out of consideration for Lin Wanrong's sincere attitude."
"All you needed to do was kneel on the ground, kowtow, and admit your mistake."
"But unexpectedly..."
Qin Luo looked at Lin Wanrong with a cold expression: "The opportunity... has once again been squandered by this useless son-in-law of your family."
Lin Wanrong's face turned pale: "!!"
Su Muwan: (ΩДΩ)!! Wait! I haven't even said anything yet!
