Chapter-18[Reaching the House]

Through the drive till midway, Han Xiao and Yao Ji stayed silent as they were lost in their thoughts.

One felt the feelings that he thought of completely forgetting and never experiencing them again, while the other was lamenting her fate to fall for someone she shouldn't have.

*Ring*

Liang Li's phone rang, making Han Xiao look at her as this ringtone was that of the phone that Liang Li used whenever she worked as his assistant.

Liang Li looked at Han Xiao with a questioning look as she needed Han Xiao's permission to pick her phone cause he was her master.

Han Xiao softly nodded and Liang Li picked her phone and answered the call.

"Hello, Liang Li here."

-Good Afternoon, Miss Li. I am Robert Walker from Walker Industries, I wanted to talk with Sir Han about the deal that we were planning on signing today.

A man's voice in English came from the other side of the phone, the voice was in Western Accent, making it clear that the man was a foreigner.

"Yes, Could you wait a minute as I ask Young Master about it?"

-Yes, Please.

Liang Li placed her phone on mute as she looked at Han Xiao and informed him of the caller, "Young Master, it was Robert Walker, the Young Owner of the Walker Industries. He wanted to ask about the deal that was planned to be signed today."

A thoughtful look appeared on Han Xiao's face, 'I forgot about it as I was planning on completing my work first...Walker Industries was one of those places that were newly opened before the past week of Apocalypse, so it means that I from the novel signed the deal today...and Walker Industries was quite useful in the Apocalypse as it provided shelter to many people...this industry needs to be here.'

"Tell him to send the documents to my mansion. I will be a little busy as I have my work and can't arrange a meeting for now." Han Xiao instructed calmly.

Even though Liang Li felt curious what was the reason for being busy, she still finished the task on her hand first, and removed the phone from the mute, and answered.

"Sir Walker, Young Master is a little busy this week, but he said that you could send the documents to his mansion, he will sign them and pass them to you."

-Yes, I will do that, and have the documents sent to Sir Xiao by 4 PM. Thank You, Miss Li.

"No problem."

Saying that Liang Li canceled the phone and looked at Han Xiao as she informed him, "Young Master, Robert will pass the documents by 4 in the evening."

"I understand." Han Xiao nodded in acknowledgment while also staring at Liang Li weirdly, same with Yao Ji as she also looked at Liang Li weirdly.

"What happened?" Liang Li asked as she started to feel uncomfortable under their stare.

Han Xiao let out a slight chuckle as he answered, "It's nothing, just that, you showed no respect to Robert as you did on the phone beforehand, and Walker Industries is an industry on par with the top industries of our country in Europe."

"Young Master, only Han Family deserves my respect, and nothing else." Liang Li replied with a look of melancholy.

Han Xiao stayed silent and started to look out of the window. He knew that there was no point in asking the reason for Liang Li to have this much respect for the Han Family as she had never answered before, and his parents denied answering too.

Soon, the car stopped in front of a gate, which was the entrance to the upper society colony of this city.

The guards standing on the side of the gate quickly opened it as they recognized the car, being the one owned by the Young Master of Han Family.

James drove in the gate and they entered the colony, surrounded by giant and luxurious mansions from the big personalities of the city while also those who purchased it to show off.

James drove straight toward the mansion that was in the deepest corner of the colony.

Reaching there, he stopped the car in front of the gate of the mansion, and Han Xiao, Yao Ji, Liang Li, and Jessie stepped out.

"Young Master, I will come after parking the car," James spoke out.

Han Xiao shook his head, "No, we need to leave after changing our clothes, so let it stay here."

James nodded and parked the car a little away from the gate while Han Xiao stare at the garden in front of him where several women and men were working after bowing in his direction.

This Mansion was one of the biggest mansions in the whole colony making it require several people to take care of it.

Han Xiao entered inside the Mansion while Yao Ji walked beside him, and Jessie and Liang Li and Jessie talked to each other.

"What happened to Bocchan today? He is behaving differently today." Jessie asked while whispering.

"Young Master had been like this since morning, and I will tell you everything later on." Liang Li said as she fastened her pace and followed behind Han Xiao and an annoyed look formed on Jessie's face as she too followed them.

"You could change into mother's clothes that are in my room." Han Xiao spoke as he turned around and looked at Yao Ji who had a somewhat relaxed expression now.

"Sure, I will do that." Yao Ji replied with a nod.

Along the way, many maids and butlers bowed their heads in Han Xiao's direction, and he returned the gesture with a soft nod.

"I saw it many times...but why are there more maids in this mansion?" Yao Ji asked with a speechless expression and continued, "And the numbers seemed to have increased even more."

Han Xiao shrugged his shoulders and answered, "Ask Mom about that. She is the one who arranged it for me."

Yao Ji nodded and climbed the stairs while walking beside Han Xiao.

The whole mansion was made in the modern style with multiple rooms including the dining room, and living room is on the First floor, along with the rooms assigned to the caretakers working in the mansion.

While the second floor had the Master Room, being Han Xiao's room. And besides his was the Liang Li, Jessie's, and James room as they were the ones who were his bodyguards and his caretakers.

As for the maids, his mother was always worried about his condition as he never showed too much interest in girls before, and she wanted him to be interested in them so she send only girls to work in his mansion.

"And everyone is a girl, but just cross-dressing as butlers." Han Xiao informed as he climbed the stairs.

"...wait, so you are telling me that Aunt Han had you surrounded by girls all the time?" Yao Ji asked with an astonished expression.

Han Xiao nodded with a tired expression and reached the second floor, he turned right and stopped in front of his room, and opened the door.

Yao Ji followed him with the same expression and entered his room.

'...Aunt Han is playing with fire, how did he even stay as this while surrounded by girls all the time...or it was the reason why he stayed like this..' Yao Ji thought.
