She didn't waste anytime to dig in since she was already hungry. On tasting the food, it was so delicious and she devoured it. She completed the whole of it and she felt like her stomach was going to burst. Later, the girl came back to collect the plates and wished her a good night's sleep. "Wait," she told her and the girl stopped then looked at her. "Whose residence is this?" she asked. "I don't have the right to tell you that Ma'am. You will know tomorrow. Please excuse me," she said and left the room. Li Fei had no option but to lay on the comfortable bed and drifted off to sleep.
In the middle of the night as Li Fei was sleeping, the door was opened and Jin Liwei came in. His neck tie was loose as his coat rested on his broad shoulder. He was just from the office and before heading to his bedroom, he decided to pass by.
Her hair covered half of her face as her lips parted as she softly breathed in and out. She had not covered herself as she slept on top of the quilt. A while later, he left for his bedroom.
In the morning, Li Fei was woken up by the same maid. Getting up, she went to the bathroom and had a bath. After, she checked the closet and found some clothes that could fit her. She contemplated on putting them on and she decided to remain in the bathrobe. She didn't have anything. Not even underwears.
On coming back, the maid brought breakfast and told her that the head maid was coming to talk to her when she gets done with her breakfast. Li Fei slowly ate but she was nervous on meeting the head maid.
When she got done, the head maid came in and she realized that she was an elderly woman. She immediately stood up to bow her head when she stopped her," Please stay seated. I'm Yin Chen, the head maid here. I'm looking forward to working with you." Li Fei forced a smile and said," Uhm...I haven't understood the residence though." "Oh, this is Young Master Jin Liwei's house. You're most welcome," said the woman with a smile.
Somewhere, Li Fei had anticipated this but nonetheless, she was surprised. What did he intend to do with her this time? "I'm going to work with you here?" she asked to confirm and the woman nodded before saying," You will make a list of the items you need and I will send someone to get them for you as you are not allowed to leave the house." "Okay, but I would like to borrow a phone please," she said. "The Young Master said that he should be the one to give you the phone," Yin Chen answered. Just what she needed!
Making the list of everything she thought she would need, she handed it to her and the woman left the room. Several hours later, the things she had ordered for were brought and on checking them, she realized that the clothes fit her perfectly. She decided to stay here as he wished not that she had any other option.
Leaving the room to step outside, she realized how luxurious the Villa was. Her room was located on the ground floor just like that of the other maids. On looking up, she assumed that it might be where Jin Liwei's room was located. She declared to herself that for as long as she stays here, she was never exceeding the ground floor. Getting outside the extensive Villa, she noticed guards placed everywhere and she wondered if they were all informed that she shouldn't leave this place.
On the fourth day, Li Fei was with Yi Chen in the kitchen who was showing her the way the Young Master liked all his meals. Within these four days, Li Fei had not seen or heard Jin Liwei in the house. She wondered if he always came and left when she was sleeping. She decided to ask," Miss Yin, has Mr Jin Liwei come by in this week?"
"No," she said as she continued slicing the grocery. "How often does he come home?" she asked once again. "It depends. Sometimes he takes days, weeks or even months. He has a penthouse at the company's building where he sleeps when he has a lot of pending work. But that had changed when he got married. He always came back home however late he was," she explained.
On hearing that, Li Fei instantly regretted why she had asked. It multiplied her guilt. She suddenly wanted to know more about the woman and she said," She must have been a very nice woman." Yin Chen smiled before saying," Nice would be an understatement of how she was. She was very humble, caring and kind. The Young Master loved and doted on her so much. It is very unfortunate what happened but nothing can be done."
Li Fei felt her heart being squeezed in her chest when she remembered that she was responsible for separating two loved ones and honestly, she didn't blame Jin Liwei for everything he made her go through.
A week later on one evening, Li Fei was in her room when Yin Chen came to her and said," The Young Master is home. He asks for your presence in his room so that you prepare his bath."
Her heart shuddered in her chest at that.
"D-did he specifically ask for me? Can't it be someone else?" "No. He was specific that he wanted you," she said before continuing," I will show you the way." Li Fei got up and followed Yin Chen up the stairs until they reached a large door and she said," This is his bedroom. I will take my leave."
Li Fei spent a long time outside the door wondering if he was inside. Placing her ear close to the door, she couldn't hear any slight movement in the room. This somehow made her believe that he wasn't inside and she took a deep breath then opened the door. Stepping inside the large luxurious room, she caught sight of him sitting on the couch in the corner of the room and she internally gasped.
