Upon returning to the room, Yan Jinyi looked at the large bed and felt lonely for the first time.

Compared to her bed in Black Clouds Fortress, this one was much more comfortable. ‘So, am I going to sleep alone on this comfortable bed?’

After thinking about it, Yan Jinyi sent Huo Xishen a video.

It took more than ten seconds for the video call to be connected, and Huo Xishen’s handsome face instantly appeared in front of her.

He should have just finished showering because his hair was still wet and he was holding a towel in one hand to wipe his hair while going to get a hair dryer.

Yan Jinyi then stared at his muscular arm and couldn’t help but swallow her saliva. ‘Doggy Huo is so hot.’

“Darling?”

Huo Xishen called out to her when he saw her staring at him.

“Ahem, you…you just finished bathing?”

“Can’t you see, Darling?” Huo Xishen asked.

Yan Jinyi changed the subject.

“Mr. Huo, do…do you still have to work later?”

“Yes.”

In his position, he would have lots of work piled up if he were to take a day off, let alone…

Huo Xishen’s gaze turned dim.

“Are you very busy?”

“I’m fine.” After glancing at the clock on the wall, he continued to ask, “Darling, are you still not going to bed?”

Oh, I slept for too long in the day.” Yan Jinyi pulled down the hem of her pajamas and said, “Mr. Huo, what books do you recommend? I’m quite bored now.”

Huo Xishen actually really began to recommend her some books seriously. “Statistics Trap and The Capitalism Theory.”

Yan Jinyi blinked in confusion and asked, “What’s all this?”

“The books I usually read.”

“…”

Huo Xishen always has the ability to kill the conversation. ‘Can’t you see that I’m hitting on you?’

Yan Jinyi was a little enraged. “It seems that you’re living a very good life alone, Mr. Huo.”

“Darling, you flatter me.”

After scratching her hair, Yan Jinyi continued to ask, “You’re so busy all the time. Do you need an assistant, Mr. Huo?”

Only then did Huo Xishen look at his phone screen. He said with a faint smile and a gentle tone of voice, “Darling, do you want to help me?”

“Well, it’s mainly because I’m bored out of my wits now so I want to find something to do.”

“Come to my room then, Darling.”

Yan Jin Yi decisively hung up the video call, and leaped off her bed to go to the dressing room to change out of her cartoon pajamas.

She saw Huo Xishen taking out a set of black-colored pajamas just now so she decided to wear white, lest Huo Xishen thinks that she was being too deliberate.

After changing, she put on some colored lip gloss and slowly made her way to Huo Xishen’s bedroom.

At that moment, Huo Xishen had already started working.

She had stayed in his room a few times and her stuffed toys that she had casually left in his room, were still there.

“Darling, what do you want to help with?”

Yan Jinyi walked to the desk with small steps and said, “Anything.”

“Darling, why don’t you move a stool over?”

Yan Jinyi looked around the room before decisively moving the chair on the balcony over and placed it beside Huo Xishen. She then propped her chin with one hand and blinked. “I’m ready, Mr. Huo, give me your commands.”

This was the first time Yan Jinyi had asked to help him with work. Huo Xishen glanced at her and handed her the documents he was holding.

“This is the list of companies that want to bid for the amusement park project. Darling, you can filter out the unsuitable ones.”

‘Amusement park project… Isn’t that the one in Tong City?’

Yan Jinyi was curious to find out who the competitors were.

“This is very important, right?”

“Yes, it is.”

‘Wow, he surprisingly gave me such an important task. It seems I have an unusual status in Doggy Huo’s heart!’

‘This old fox Doggy Huo.’
