Xiang Yi gently explained, "I can be his assistant. I'm pretty decent at cooking and that sort of thing."

Shi Sui was her 'white moonlight'. The feelings she harbored for him went beyond just wanting to be his girlfriend and was similar to... An aunty fan*?

She just wanted to be good to him.

Plus, she had been bound to a nanny System* when she had time travelled. In short, her role was to assist her teammates in defeating their opponents.

Most of the skills she had mastered belonged to a support player's toolkit. It wasn't lethal, but it was suitable enough for an assistant.

Xiang Feng heard this and lost it. "No way! How can a girl from the Xiang family cook for another man? Is he worthy? He doesn't..." He felt his backside turn cold. Xiang Feng then abruptly changed his wording. "Of course, he's worthy, but I am worried you will be tired! Besides, you're a public figure. How crazy it is for you to be an assistant to another public figure!"

Xiang Yi: "I have plans to leave the entertainment industry."

"Heh?" Xiang Feng was stunned. Did he hear her right?

Xiang Yi repeated once more. "I want to leave the entertainment industry. It's just... After recovering my memory, I discovered my initial intentions and realized the true meaning of life, that is, to return to the fields of the countryside and care for the natural landscape."

The second half of her statement was nonsense. The actual truth was:

The max level boss wants to retire in Buddhist style**. :)

Xiang Feng was in a trance. If one must know, a year ago his little niece had threatened him with her life trying to enter the entertainment industry. She had cried, screamed, and just about destroyed the Xiang family with her antics.

The Xiang family's little princess could have asked for the stars in the sky, and they would have bought her a meteorite. Why would she enter the entertainment industry to endure that kind of suffering?

Unable to stand her crying, her young uncle Xiang Feng caved and decided to sign her onto his own company so he could spoonfeed her resources himself.

But in the end, Xiang Yi had listened to some girlfriend's gossip and signed an unfair contract with a notoriously sc.u.mmy smaller company. After Xiang Feng found out, he had been half dead from anger. Yet, she had somehow justified her decision, and even blamed him for not understanding the kindness of her girlfriends.

Xiang Feng was truly hurt from that time.

Being an assistant still seemed wild to him. What was she after? How much money could she really make...

Suddenly, the lightbulb lit up in Xiang Feng's mind, and he finally realized.

Ah! Of course, she's not after money!

His niece was obviously after Shi Sui! She wanted his body!

When he thought of their encounters at that level, Xiang Feng resolutely refused. "No way! If you want to exit the industry, I can help you. But being an assistant is out of the question."

Xiang Yi had only mentioned it casually, and seeing Xiang Feng refuse, she didn't say anything more.

Of course. Someone like Shi Sui could find any assistant he wanted. She was thinking too much about it.

"Uncle, Mr. Shi, I'll be leaving now," Xiang Yi politely greeted them. After walking a few steps, she suddenly remembered something and took out a small bag containing snowflake pastries from her purse and stuffed it in Xiang Feng's hands. "Try it, and see if you like it. If so, let me know on WeChat and I'll bring you some more next time."

This was how the Xiang family got along with each other. If they encounter a good thing, they would always think of their family first. Xiang Feng spoiled his little niece, and Xiang Yi wanted to treat him well too.

Shi Sui's deep gaze inexplicably fell on the objects in Xiang Feng's hands.

Peanuts, biscuits, almonds, and dried cranberries had been chipped up and mixed with marshmallows and milk powder. Each piece was exquisite and small, exuding a sweet and light aroma.

Xiang Feng smiled like a landlord's silly son. "You don't like sweets, right? Then I won't be sharing with you."

He opened his mouth to its max limit and stuffed a few pieces of snowflake pastry into his mouth in one breath.

Shi Sui: "..."

*Translator's Note: Aunty fan (or direct translation, "mother fan") refers to fans who treat idols like their own sons/daughters out of genuine love for said celebrity, usually seeing the individual as a child that never grows old.

**Buddhist style, or 'Fo Xi' is a recently trending internet term used to describe a certain kind of culture. Usually, Buddhist youth (boy or girl) describes an individual who doesn't want anything extraneous, doesn't have any qualms with society, and generally leads a lifestyle that seeks both internal and external peace.
