The conversation was not going in a direction that Xia Ling enjoyed. She started to get angry and did not want to be in the same room with Li Lei.

She stiffly wished him a good night and returned to the guest room and got on the bed to continue sleeping. Perhaps because she had a glass of warm milk, she felt lethargy hit her pretty quickly and before she knew it, her vision got blurry and she fell asleep.

She did not have another nightmare.

The next day when she opened her eyes, it was already bright outside and sunlight was shining into the room through the lace curtain, filling the room with warmth and peacefulness. She had not slept so peacefully in a long time. She got off the bed to wash up, changed into one of the expensive new dresses, combed her messy long hair and walked out of the guest room. There was no one in the other bedroom, though she heard sounds coming from the kitchen.

She walked over to have a look and saw the general manager of the training camp, Tan Ying, clad in an apron and busily cooking in front of the stove.

“Boss had to go out for a sudden business.” Tan Ying was not surprised to see her. “He instructed me to come to fetch you and prepare your breakfast.” He did not ask why she was in Li Lei’s apartment. It seemed that Li Lei had already explained the situation to him.

Xia Ling was stunned to see Tan Ying holding a frying pan and frying an egg with ease.

“Do all of you at Skyart Entertainment… enjoy cooking as a hobby?” She asked with a newfound respect for Tan Ying.

“What do you mean ‘all of you at Skyart Entertainment’?” Tan Ying rolled his eyes at her in irritation. “You are also from Skyart Entertainment.” Following that, a bitter look came over his face as he continued, “It’s not that all of us at Skyart Entertainment enjoy cooking as a hobby. It’s just that after spending so much time with a crazy boss, you will be forced to have such a hobby.” He threw the fried egg onto a plate with agitation.

Xia Ling looked at the perfectly fried egg with a golden yellow yolk on the clean white porcelain plate. She recalled the scene of Li Lei forcing her to cook and gave a shudder. She made up her mind to stay as far away from that crazy monster in the future.

“Have you washed your face and brushed your teeth yet?” asked Tan Ying. “Your breakfast is getting cold.”

“Yup, I did.” Xia Ling responded and stepped forward to help Tan Ying prepare the fresh fruit juice and put the sushi that Tan Ying had made onto a plate. “Mr. Tan, since you don’t like making breakfast, why didn’t we just eat out?”

Hearing this, Tan Ying’s expression became even more bitter. He said, “That crazy boss said that these are fresh ingredients sent over from the mountain villa. We need to finish it as soon as possible so that it won’t go to waste.”

Xia Ling was speechless.

Well alright, at least the one being forced to make breakfast was not her. She sat down in a good mood and tucked in.

After breakfast, Tan Ying cleaned up the kitchen and Xia Ling returned to the guest room to pack her bags. After which, both of them left to return to the training camp.

There were many new security officers at the training camp.

Tan Ying looked over at her and said, “Ye Xingling, Boss asked me to tell you that as long as you are in Skyart Entertainment’s territory, nobody will be able to kidnap you by force. However, that is all that he will do.”
