"Ye! Don't just stand there, take your time to look later, let's go in and freshen up first!" Su Qing pulled Ye Hao's arm and led him into the villa, not minding the close contact between their bodies.

When Ye Hao entered Lin Ruyu's luxurious villa, he sighed again. The two-story loft, a hall of hundreds of square meters, a courtyard with several luxury cars, a BMW X6, a Mercedes, plus the Lamborghini he just drove back, it was like entering a world of luxury cars.

In the villa's hall, there was a large 3D screen, and in the center were some antique chairs from the Ming Dynasty, draped with mink fur coats, which made people want to sit down and indulge. The windows were made of frosted glass, allowing views from the inside without being seen from the outside, providing an unobstructed outlook.

Facing north in the hall, the vast ocean and blue skies with white clouds were visible, even carrying a faint sea breeze scent, refreshing and invigorating. Ye Hao looked longingly at the outside, deeply captivated by the scenery, wishing he could stay in this peace forever.

He wondered if this could be another home for him and how long he could stay here.

Su Qing, unaware of Ye Hao's thoughts, saw him standing still, softly asked, "Ye, does the wound from fighting with that robber still hurt? Shall I get some ointment to relieve it for you?" Even though Su Qing was anxious about the upcoming class reunion, seeing Ye Hao standing there quietly and recalling the pain he felt while fighting, she couldn't bear to leave him alone.

Ye Hao, pulled back to reality, turned to Su Qing and smiled, "It's fine, don't worry, I've got a thick skin. Isn't it just a small-time robber? It's nothing serious. But what about you, why don't you freshen up?"

"It's fine, I'll go once Yuyu is done. How about I apply the ointment for you first?" Su Qing remained concerned over the severity of Ye Hao's injuries.

"No need." Ye Hao shook his head. Ever since he was young, he had never taken minor injuries seriously, believing they would heal naturally in a few days. Besides, with the magical ring he had now, which adjusted his body with Qianqian's help, he felt no pain. Despite that, Su Qing's words warmed his heart, giving him a sense of home.

"Alright! But Ye, let me know if there's anything, otherwise we can't have you getting hurt and unable to protect us." Su Qing teased.

Ye Hao understood this was her way of showing concern without being too direct, phrasing it as if it was about protecting them instead. Ye Hao wasn't oblivious; he knew who treated him well. He kept this care deep in his heart, showing them with actions that since they could show care for him, he was also willing to risk his life to protect them all.

"Of course! You go get ready first, otherwise, you might be late." Ye Hao smiled and nodded.

Su Qing heeded his words and went upstairs to prepare. Ye Hao, with no instructions from them, dared not stay without permission, considering his current role was just a bodyguard. Then, he took out the new clothes Fang Ni bought for him and began washing them in the courtyard.

Of course! Ye Hao wasn't intentionally being inappropriate around the ladies but was used to open-air bathing from his time in South Africa, where it was common. It wasn't a big deal.

With boxer shorts on, Ye Hao's speed in showering couldn't be underestimated. It barely took him three minutes to clean up thoroughly. Despite the lack of fragrance, his neat and tidy appearance was thoroughly refreshing.

After donning the new clothes, Ye Hao caught a glimpse of himself in the window, realizing how greatly he had changed! Gone was the fierce and muscular mercenary image, replaced by a charming boy-next-door look, sunny and attractive.

His muscular body in the suit Fang Ni bought highlighted his muscles, mesmerizing any woman who saw them. His height further accentuated the suit, making others feel inferior by comparison.

When Lin Ruyu came downstairs, she saw Ye Hao preening himself outside the window. Upon seeing his developed chest muscles, she blinked, thinking to herself, "This guy's muscles even beat mine," instantly blushing for her thoughts.

Just then, Ye Hao struck a playful shooting pose, thoroughly enjoying himself! Lin Ruyu paused, then burst into hearty laughter. Outside, Ye Hao, thinking this was his most dashing outfit ever, began posing and making what he thought were cool gestures towards the window.

Unbeknownst to him, Lin Ruyu was inside laughing uncontrollably, clutching her stomach. Su Qing, upon coming downstairs, also saw Ye Hao showing off in front of the window and couldn't help but giggle.

This new side of Ye gave them a fresh perspective on him; undeniably, he was a self-confessed narcissist, able to be so absorbed while admiring his reflection. Little did they know, for Ye Hao, looking at a mirror earnestly was a rarity, not more than ten times in his life, usually glimpsing his reflection incidentally. But now, seeing himself so clearly through the window mirror, he was naturally captivated.

In the past, the only time he could catch a glimpse of himself was when he picked up a sniper rifle, briefly seeing his reflection in the scope when raising the gun.

"Hahaha... This narcissist is killing me," laughed Lin Ruyu inside the hall, holding her stomach, with one hand on Su Qing's shoulder.

"Haha, Ye is just too funny." Su Qing smiled, watching, though not as exaggeratedly as Lin Ruyu.

"Alright! I can't take it anymore, if I keep laughing my makeup's gonna fall off. Haha, let's go out!" Even though Lin Ruyu says she won't laugh, she can't help but want to burst into laughter seeing Ye Hao posing as narcissistic as ever.

As they come out, and Ye Hao sees the repressed amusement on their faces, his face immediately scrunches up in embarrassment. Damn it, I've made a fool of myself again, for sure, because you can see what's happening outside from inside...

Understanding this, Ye Hao somewhat awkwardly walks over, looks at Lin Ruyu and Su Qing, and cheerfully greets them saying, "The two ladies are truly as beautiful as celestial beings. Every movement radiates enchanting charm, making me truly ashamed to be traveling with you!"

"Haha!" Lin Ruyu couldn't hold back any longer seeing Ye Hao's pretentious manner and laughed out loud, saying, "No matter how charming your movements are, they can't be as enchanting as Ye's bodyguard poses! You could even say they're seductive to the bone, haha~~~"

Hearing this, Ye Hao's face instantly scrunches up again, as if he really did strike a few seductive poses earlier...

Though Su Qing wanted to laugh too, seeing Ye Hao's embarrassed look, she held back her laughter and shook Lin Ruyu's arm a few times.

"Aha! Um, haven't looked in the mirror for a long time, got a bit carried away, won't happen next time. So, aren't you rushing to go out? Let's go?" Ye Hao used a burst of laughter to cover his embarrassment, preventing Lin Ruyu from bringing it up again.

"Haha! Narcissist..." Lin Ruyu laughed again before getting into the car.

Even though Ye Hao felt that every movement of Lin Ruyu was truly captivating, he also understood this tigress wasn't someone just anyone could mess with. So he decisively took up his role as bodyguard, opening and closing doors and such, doing everything he should.

"Where to?" Ye Hao wasn't used to saying 'Miss', so he asked directly.

"To look in the mirror... haha..." Lin Ruyu thought about Ye Hao's manner and couldn't help but bring it up again. This time even Su Qing didn't hold back and burst out laughing.

Ye Hao felt ashamed and had the urge to slam the car door and leave, but realizing he was now someone's bodyguard, he couldn't just not let the employer speak! He must endure, so as not to disappoint his superior, he must endure...

Thinking of this, Ye Hao forced a smile uglier than crying and looked at Lin Ruyu asking, "Miss Lin, where are we going now..."

"Haha~~~ I'll tell you when I finish laughing, little girl, did you see just now? That pose~~~ haha, was really seductive." Lin Ruyu said while gesturing, though not as flamboyant as Ye Hao's seduction, she managed a good imitation...

Su Qing watching Lin Ruyu like this couldn't hold back her laughter anymore, the whole car was filled with the sweet sounds of the two women laughing...

Can this please stop being mentioned? This is leading Boss to slam the door and leave! Ye Hao shouted inwardly, but his face was already as red as a monkey's behind.

After a good while, Ye Hao finally got through the torturous time, laughed at for a full ten minutes. Even with Ye Hao's thick skin, he was so embarrassed he wanted to find a hole and crawl into it...

"I've laughed till it hurts, really." Lin Ruyu finally stopped her laughter, but seeing Ye Hao's embarrassed look, she felt like she might mention it again.

"Um..." Ye Hao asked, his voice trembling, "Where are we going now?"

"Ye, are you blushing, haha~~~" Though Su Qing and Lin Ruyu stopped laughing, they couldn't help but laugh again hearing Ye Hao talk with a trembling voice.

"You see, it's seven o'clock. Once I'm off duty, I won't give a damn about you..." Ye Hao turned around and glared at them when he couldn't hold it any longer.

"Haha! Do you dare? Seems like your employment hours are twenty-four hours a day. Try ignoring us, see what happens? Woman won't pay your salary!" Lin Ruyu looked at Ye Hao mischievously, thinking how dare he be so full of himself, thinking he can rebel?

Indeed! Hearing Lin Ruyu's words, Ye Hao showed a look of utter defeat and said bitterly, "The biggest failure of my life is being a bodyguard for you two ladies. So, just say where we're going..."
