Max Level Return—I'll Protect That Fragile One

Cheng Yue said, ”I think I did the right thing, I’ve never regretted it.” Given another chance, she would still do the same.

Cheng Yue looked back, gazing at the closed door of the lounge, and said with emotion, ”When I was exiled from M Country, I had nowhere else to go; no country in the world was willing to accept me. Finally, it was Zheng Lie who found me and brought me back to Divine Concealment Island.”

”From then on, I abandoned my original name and took my Xia Country mother’s surname, renaming myself Cheng Yue.”

Cheng Yue gave Xu Xingguang a cool smile and said, ”Miss Xu, the Pilot may not be a good person, but in my heart, he is as kind as a deity.”

Xu Xingguang smiled and patted Cheng Yue’s shoulder, ”Let’s get going, I’ll observe and learn here in secret.”

”Alrighty.”

The private jet crossed over Divine Concealment Island, heading north towards the mountains. In twenty minutes, the plane landed directly on the private helipad inside Huo Wen’an’s estate.

Huo Wen’an’s estate covers an area of more than 80,000 square meters, with a building area of 9,000 square meters, and the houses are almost all in Gothic architectural style. It is said that this was once the residence of successive Pilots, but the Old Helmsman moved out to accompany his Princess.

Before disembarking, Xu Xingguang stood at the cabin door, gazing at the mysterious estate full of historical charm in the distance, and remarked, ”This place is perfect for shooting a ghost film.”

Upon hearing this, the lineup of stewards standing at attention on the helipad, who were waiting to welcome Huo Wen’an home, were all so frightened that they tensed up.

They were afraid that Huo Wen’an would get angry.

But Huo Wen’an wasn’t angry; after hearing Xu Xingguang’s words, he even seriously considered its feasibility. ”You’re right, you wouldn’t need to pay rent to shoot a horror film here.”

Thinking of something, Huo Wen’an let out a cold laugh and added, ”At night, with the lights off, there are ghosts everywhere.”

The Huo Family members and servants who died in this estate were countless, so they certainly weren’t short of such things.

Xu Xingguang smiled and cautioned Huo Wen’an, ”Your throat hasn’t healed yet, so speak less.” Then she helped Huo Wen’an off the plane.

The stewards were greatly surprised to see Xu Xingguang chatting and laughing with Huo Wen’an.

It seems that Mr. Zheng Lie was right in saying that this Miss Xu could become their future lady of the house.

The Pilot Mansion was so vast that there were several stewards managing the estate’s affairs, all of whom had served the Old Helmsman before. The chief steward was named Shenyin Xia, reportedly a native of Divine Concealment Island who had received a higher education.

His brother was Shenyin Chun, the old steward who followed the Old Helmsman around.

In the estate, people addressed Shenyin Xia as ’Uncle Xia.’

Uncle Xia was sixty years old this year, having lived in this estate for over thirty years, he was very familiar with every scene and object within it.

Zheng Lie was quite reticent, and since Huo Wen’an was low on energy, Shenyin Xia was the one to introduce Xu Xingguang.

Knowing that Miss Xu was the future Lady Captain, Uncle Xia was even more affable and told Xu Xingguang, ”Today, you will be discharged; the Pilot called last night asking us to prepare to welcome Miss Xu.”

In fact, Huo Wen’an used the highest standards for welcoming the Young Madam.

Just as Xu Xingguang was about to ask Xiahou what preparations were made, she saw a maid standing in front holding a tray with tea.

The maid was wearing a long black cheongsam dress, with her black hair styled with a pearwood hairpin, and she was standing with lowered eyes on the path leading to the castle gate.

Xu Xingguang was perplexed and glanced back at Huo Wen’an.

Huo Wen’an smiled faintly, without a word.

Uncle Xia explained to Xu Xingguang, ”Miss Xu is the honored guest of our mansion and the love of our Lord Captain. Since it’s Miss Xu’s first visit, we must welcome you with the most noble and highest standards of etiquette from Divine Concealment Island.”

Uncle Xia looked at the maid and explained with a smile, ”The tray holds a cup of tea made from the unique mountain tea of Divine Concealment Island, picking only the tender first buds each spring. The tea is brewed with water from a rare natural freshwater well at the center of Divine Concealment Island.”

”Have this cup of Divine Concealment Tea, and Miss Xu will be recognized and accepted by the Pilot Mansion as the future lady...” Uncle Xia stopped in time and changed it to, ”as a guest.”

Xu Xingguang smirked, glancing at Huo Wen’an behind her.

She believed that Huo Wen’an indeed instructed the people of the Pilot Mansion to welcome her with the highest standard of hospitality, but it was not necessarily for a guest; it was most likely for the future lady of the house.

He was indeed full of sincerity.
