I raised stunning young ladies, but they all wanted to possess me.

Sunlight streamed in through the window, falling softly on Fu Wanqing's long pink hair.

When she bent down to pour tea for her grandfather, the lines of her profile were beautiful, and her eyelashes were very long.

Gu Yan looked at it for a while, then looked away and down at the phone in her hand.

The screen was still lit; he hadn't had time to lock it yet, and the interface was still showing the call log.

He was about to put his phone away when he caught a hand reaching out out of the corner of his eye.

Fu Wanqing appeared behind him without his noticing and tapped the screen with her finger.

She moved quickly; before Gu Yan could react, the phone was already gone.

She swiped and tapped a few times on the screen, then handed it back.

Gu Yan looked down and saw a line of text displayed on her phone screen.

"You have successfully hired applicant Qing, and the contract is effective immediately."

Gu Yan was completely stunned, her eyes wide open and her mouth agape.

"Wanqing, what are you doing? When did you agree to this?"

His voice was slightly distorted, as if he was confirming that he hadn't misread it.

Fu Wanqing handed the phone back to him, clapped her hands, and smiled.

"I'm bored at home anyway, so it wouldn't hurt to go out with you."

"Aren't you going to South Africa? I've never been to South Africa before, so we can go together."

Her tone was light and casual, as if she were saying, "The weather's nice today, let's go get some food."

Gu Yan stared at the words on her phone screen through gritted teeth, her fingers trembling.

"Don't you know this contract is unchangeable? It's a lifelong contract."

"Once you sign, you're stuck with your employer for life. Do you understand what 'for life' means?"

"You, the eldest daughter of the Fu family, coming here to be my lifelong bodyguard? Is that even appropriate?"

His voice was very low, but everyone could hear the urgency in his tone.

Seeing his anxious expression, Fu Wanqing's lips curved into an even wider smile.

"I know, it's a lifelong contract, it means I'll stay with you for life, it won't hurt me."

"Besides, I find it quite interesting to be with you; it's much better than staying at home."

Gu Yan took a deep breath, then another, feeling her blood pressure soaring.

"Your family won't agree. You are of the Fu family bloodline, Fu Yunshu's granddaughter."

"If you become my bodyguard, what will your grandma think? What will your parents think?"

Fu Wanqing waved her hand, her expression relaxed, as if she were talking about something unimportant.

"No, my sister is so capable. With her in the Fu family, that's enough."

"Grandma has my sister to keep her company, and Mom and Dad have my sister to support them, so it doesn't matter whether I go out or not."

"Besides, Grandma said I should stay with you, isn't that perfect?"

She spoke in a very calm tone, but Gu Yan understood the meaning behind her words.

She was superfluous in the Fu family; it didn't matter whether she was there or not.

Gu Yan opened her mouth as if to say something, but didn't know what to say.

Grandpa Gu Tan sat on the bed, listening to the conversation between the two, his expression somewhat surprised.

"Xiao Yan, this little girl is from the Fu family. Fu Yunshu is your grandmother."

"Your grandma and I have known each other for a long time. We used to eat and drink tea together."

He turned to look at Fu Wanqing, his eyes filled with the kind of affection an elder has for a younger generation.

"How is your grandmother? I haven't seen her for many years. Is she still in Jinghai?"

Fu Wanqing nodded quickly, her voice sweet as if coated with honey.

"Grandma is in good health, Grandpa, don't worry. She often mentions you."

"She said you were the strongest general in the Great Xia Dynasty back then, and you saved many lives."

Grandpa smiled and waved his hand, a hint of embarrassment on his face.

"Oh, oh, that's all in the past, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning."

Gu Yan pursed her lips, said nothing, and was thinking about other things.

So what if he signed an agreement? So what if it's a lifelong contract? He can just run away later.

Grandpa has now been moved out of the nutrient tank and into bed, and his health has clearly improved.

The life-sustaining substances that Chen Sinian gave us back then were indeed quite good; my grandfather recovered very quickly.

Once Grandpa recovers, he'll take him to South Africa, and no one can catch up with him.

He reached out and took his grandfather's hand, speaking in a very low voice that only his grandfather could hear.

"Grandpa, please prepare yourselves in the next few days, we may be leaving soon."

"Don't pack too much, just bring the essentials, and buy the rest when you get there."

Grandpa paused for a moment, looking at Gu Yan with some surprise.

"Just leave if you want to. Why are you making it sound so solemn, like you're going to war?"

He was about to ask a few more questions, but when he saw Gu Yan's earnest eyes, he swallowed his words back.

Gu Yan's eyes were serious, not in a joking way, but in the way of someone who had made a decision.

Grandpa was silent for two seconds, then nodded quietly and didn't ask any more questions.

He understands his grandson, and Xiao Yan never hesitates when making decisions.

Fu Wanqing stood to the side and heard the entire conversation between the two.

She saw that Gu Yan's expression changed, and then she saw that her grandfather's expression changed as well.

She took two steps forward and patted her not-so-broad chest.

"Has someone been bullying Master Gu? Tell me, and I'll help you fight back."

Her chest-patting gesture was natural, but the girl's body curves were very obvious at that moment.

Beneath the thin shirt, her soft silhouette trembled slightly with each pat.

The scene wasn't particularly revealing, but it was so captivating that you couldn't help but take a second look.

Gu Yan's gaze involuntarily swept over and landed on that spot.

Fu Wanqing felt his gaze and blinked her amber eyes.

She didn't blush, didn't flinch, and didn't get angry.

She glanced down at her own hand that had patted her chest, then looked up at Gu Yan.

"What are you looking at? I'm showing you my fist, not anywhere else."

Her voice wasn't loud, but it carried a smug "got caught" tone.

Gu Yan has been discovered.

He simply withdrew his gaze, his face devoid of any extra expression.

Simply appreciating beauty.

"I didn't see anything, I just thought you were making too much noise patting your chest, I was afraid you'd break your ribs."

His voice was calm, as if he were talking about something very ordinary.

Fu Wanqing paused for a moment, then smiled, her eyes curving into crescent moons.

"Don't worry, I'm tough, I won't get hurt."

"But you, your body is so weak, you should eat more good food to nourish yourself."

After she finished speaking, she patted her chest again, this time deliberately patting it harder.

Gu Yan immediately looked away.

To be honest, regardless of whether Fu Wanqing is the protagonist or the antagonist, she certainly has considerable resources.

"If you keep filming me, I'll really have to consider getting a new bodyguard. Who's responsible if the footage gets damaged?"

Fu Wanqing snorted, crossed her arms, and held her chin high.

"You dare? The contract's already signed; you can't change it."
