To be honest, seeing Ye Ming's awkward attempt to remain calm, seeing him walk out of the bedroom, and hearing his sighs in the living room, Fu Hua felt very guilty.
According to information found online, men generally care a lot about their abilities in this area, and he is probably no exception.
His body is perfectly healthy, but Yu Duchen's influence on his memory has caused him to misjudge his own body. Will this leave him with psychological trauma?
Fu Hua felt guilty, but she had no choice but to do it—she couldn't just pretend she didn't know that Lafite next door was eavesdropping and let the little girl hear everything, could she?
but……
"Although the plan failed, being able to exercise together every day is a big improvement, isn't it?"
Living and exercising together, the ambiguous relationship that develops with each other every day—with just a little teasing, wouldn't everything else fall into place naturally?
We just need to find a way to get Lafite away from us when the time comes.
Fu Hua frowned slightly, but the wisdom she had accumulated over the years quickly gave her a solution.
"Then, I'll have Yae Sakura and Okita take Laffey out to play, and I'll take advantage of the opportunity..."
Thinking this, a smile unconsciously appeared on Fu Hua's lips.
But soon, Fu Hua began to reflect on her actions.
Fu Hua, Fu Hua, you've really fallen too far. Where is the pride and composure of an immortal now? You're practically turning into that clueless ordinary girl from Canghai City.
I've become increasingly decadent since I started living with him.
but……
A warrior who had lived for an entire era, guarding the land for a thousand years, and an immortal who had witnessed the rise and fall of dynasties and the changing of the world, his heart, which had become so indifferent that it had almost lost all human emotion, showed signs of beating again. He felt the fresh emotions of worry, shyness, and nervousness that he hadn't felt in a long time. It's not so bad, is it?
Fu Hua knew that among all the people in the world, only Ye Ming could influence her and change her.
Because back in the last era, when she was just an ordinary girl, Ye Ming's image had already been imprinted in her heart.
Because of liking, one cares; because of caring, one is influenced and changed.
It is change, it is trouble, and it is also happiness.
Fu Hua decided that even if she had to resort to despicable means, or even force, she would solidify her relationship with Ye Ming and stay by his side!
Fu Hua has an unshirkable responsibility to restore the glory of her childhood!
Chapter Fifty-Five: Morning Exercise, Heartbeat, and an Office Romance with Ke Qing
Silent all night.
The next morning, just as dawn was breaking, Ye Ming, who was fast asleep, was shaken awake by Fu Hua.
When he opened his eyes, Fu Hua had changed into a tracksuit, tied her long hair into a ponytail, and was standing by the bed, looking at him with a serious expression.
"Get up and exercise."
Ye Ming saw this meaning in Fu Hua's eyes.
Although reluctant, Ye Ming thought that his health was not only related to his dignity as a man, but also to the happiness of the girls in the future. Under Fu Hua's urging, he got out of bed, changed into his sportswear, washed up quickly, and went out with Fu Hua.
Although it was only a little past five in the morning, there were already early risers in the community. Apart from sanitation workers and a few young people who like to exercise, most of them were elderly men and women who got up early to exercise, because there is a small park not far from the community, so it is very convenient for them to exercise.
When Ye Ming and Fu Hua left the residential area and entered the park, there were already many people jogging on the park's paths. In the pavilions and open spaces beside the paths, there were also many elderly people playing chess, practicing Tai Chi, and Tai Chi sword.
After running a lap along the path with Fu Hua, Ye Ming was surprised to find a cherry-haired girl dressed in a plain white shirt practicing Tai Chi sword next to a group of elderly people practicing Tai Chi sword in an open space.
The young girl stood upright with her beautiful figure, holding a knife in both hands, facing forward in a mid-section stance. She raised the knife, swung it forward, and then sheathed it, repeating the motion repeatedly.
What are seemingly mundane and basic movements become incredibly fluid and elegant when performed by a young girl, a truly delightful sight.
The chilly morning breeze ruffled the girl's clothes and cherry blossom hair, but she showed no impatience, her movements were meticulous, and her amber eyes were calm and deep, like a cold pool in a deep mountain.
His pace slowed unconsciously as he watched the girl practicing her sword. For a moment, Ye Ming was completely mesmerized.
"what happened?"
Fu Hua, who was running beside Ye Ming, looked up in confusion when Ye Ming stopped. She was shocked to see Ye Ming's appearance.
"Ye Zi, why are you crying?"
"cry?"
Startled awake by Fu Hua's voice, Ye Ming was surprised to find his eyes stinging. When he reached out to touch them, he found tears.
"I……"
Ye Ming opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
Looking again at the cherry-haired girl practicing Suzhen, her posture and movements were still elegant and beautiful, but the inexplicable excitement and nostalgia she felt at the beginning were gone. The morning breeze blew by, as if everything just now was just an illusion.
"I just felt that person looked familiar."
Ye Ming offered a casual explanation, his gaze still fixed on the cherry-haired girl practicing her sword.
Is it just that it looks familiar?
For a fleeting moment, Ye Ming felt an urge to practice Su Zhen with the girl.
It was an impulse, yet it felt vague, like an illusion, or as natural and ordinary as eating and drinking, as if he and the girl had repeated the same exercises countless times before.
This feeling was fleeting. Ye Ming had never been exposed to Japanese Kendo before. In the past, he would have thought that he was just attracted by the girl's beauty and temperament and had a delusion. But since meeting Raffi, he had been thinking about it more than before.
"That girl with cherry blossom hair."
Ye Ming pointed to the cherry-haired girl practicing her soprano in the open space, "Is she the girl in the living room last night? Who is she? What's her name?"
Looking in the direction Ye Ming pointed, Fu Hua was surprised to see the cherry-haired girl practicing Su Zhen.
With her keen intuition, she hadn't been able to sense the girl's presence during the run. Even now, when she looked up, she could clearly see a girl practicing swordsmanship, but once she stopped using her eyes, Fu Hua sensed that the open space in front of her was still empty, as if the girl practicing swordsmanship had no physical form and was just a phantom reflection.
This is the extraordinary realm of clarity and stillness. A swordsman at this level, even if he is a weak, ordinary person without any extraordinary power, is enough to command respect from anyone as long as he has a sword in his hand.
This person...
Fu Hua, who was seeing the level of swordsmanship of the cherry-haired girl for the first time, was both surprised and taken aback. She remained silent for a while before introducing her: "She is Yae Sakura's friend and is currently living with Yae Sakura. As for her name, I think it is Okita Souji."
"Okita Souji?"
Ye Ming was startled, immediately thinking of the three Servants who disappeared from his Chaldea last night—Okita Souji, Jeanne Alter, and Scáthach.
Could it be her?
Looking at the delicate features of the cherry-haired girl, Ye Ming had a vague premonition that the girl practicing swordsmanship was very likely Miss Okita from Taga.
but……
Why do the girls in the game give me a sense of déjà vu, as if I've known them for a long time?
Ye Ming was puzzled.
He didn't feel any inexplicable excitement when he was with Lafite. It was only during his time with Lafite that he clearly felt the deep affection the little girl had for him.
Ye Ming was puzzled. He watched Okita Souji practicing her swordplay. The girl seemed to have noticed him and Fu Hua standing by the roadside, but she didn't come over to greet them and continued practicing her swordplay.
Seeing this, Ye Ming didn't feel comfortable approaching her directly, so he decided to try and find an opportunity to chat her up after get off work that evening.
After finishing his morning run with Fu Hua, Ye Ming went back to take a shower, ate some breakfast downstairs, and then took the subway to work.
Ye Ming first went to the company to clock in, and then, with Sister Wang's attentive words that "you just need to maintain your relationship with Liyue International during this period, you don't need to come to clock in," Ye Ming was pushed out of the company again and sent by Sister Wang's driver to take Ye Ming to the office building of Liyue International.
As soon as Ye Ming got out of the car, he saw Ke Qing's secretary, Zhou Keke, standing downstairs, playing on her phone with a bored look on her face.
"Secretary Zhou?"
Ye Ming hesitated before greeting him.
"Eh? Mr. Ye!?"
Upon seeing Ye Ming, Zhou Keke, who was idly playing on her phone, trembled in fright, just like when she was playing on her phone in class and suddenly looked up to be met with the death stare of her homeroom teacher. Her voice even started to tremble: "I, Ke, Ke always makes me wait for you here, I, I've been waiting for half an hour, I was so bored that, that's why..."
"I understand, I understand. We're all just working people. I won't tattle on you to your boss."
Ye Ming smiled and comforted the frightened little girl, while secretly sighing in his heart.
Seeing the girl's reaction, Ye Ming knew that she must know about his relationship with Ke Qing.
"Take me up there."
Following Zhou Keke to the top floor, Ye Ming pushed open the office door. Behind the desk, Ke Qing, dressed in a silver business suit, was resting her chin on her hands, smiling at him.
Ye Ming closed the door and let out a soft breath.
The legendary office romance begins today.
Chapter 56 Ke Qing's Office Romance Plan
Although she's a fresh graduate and lacks work experience, she still has a good eye for detail.
Upon seeing the look in the eyes of the man and woman in the office, Zhou Keke wisely and secretly slipped out, making sure to carefully close the office door tightly after leaving.
What will happen inside?
The moment this curious thought arose, a whole bunch of images of fairies fighting popped into her mind, making Zhou Keke blush with embarrassment.
Zhou Keke, you are so despicable! How could such a beautiful and outstanding girl like President Ke do such a despicable thing in the office!
Lately, my mind has been filled with strange plots. I must read less Korean comics in the future, lest I damage my brain.
Zhou Keke made up her mind and returned to her workstation.
The boss can flirt during work hours, but she, as a working person, still needs to focus on her job.
in the office.
Ye Ming glanced around the office and noticed that a new set of desk and chairs had been added diagonally opposite Ke Qing's desk. There was also a desktop computer on the desk with a huge curved screen and a cool-looking case next to the monitor. It was fully equipped with a mouse and keyboard, but judging from the style, it looked more like a gaming device than an office supply.
Seeing Ye Ming's gaze fall on the computer, Ke Qing got up from her seat, walked behind Ye Ming with a smile, and pushed him to sit behind the desk. Then, Ke Qing pressed the power button, moved behind the chair, pressed the back of the chair, and rested her chin on Ye Ming's shoulder.
"I remember you used to love playing games, so I had Coco get a top-of-the-line computer built for you. Take a look and see if you like it. If you don't, I'll have someone change it."
Ye Ming looked at the reflection on the screen. The girl's chin was resting on his shoulder, and their faces were very close, almost touching. As she spoke, a few strands of her hair fell down, tickling Ye Ming's cheek. This scene didn't resemble an office atmosphere at all; it was more like a young couple flirting in their bedroom at home.
"I haven't played games in a long time."
Looking at the game icons that had been downloaded long ago on the computer screen, Ye Ming sighed, "When I first graduated, I was too busy with work to play games. Later, I quit my job and came to this city. I have time now, but I'm not as energetic as I was when I first graduated. As for games, I used to play them at first, but later, I mostly just watch other people's live streams and read fan fiction."
As he said this, Ye Ming turned his head slightly, looked at Ke Qing's exquisite profile, and smiled: "Besides, girls generally don't want their boyfriends to be addicted to games, right?"
