"A madman who has lost his mind? Fine, Miss Yun, you speak very well," the masked man said after a moment of silence, then began to clap.
Yun Shuxinian hadn't expected such a reaction from the masked man. She thought he would be angry.
The pervert also silently joined in the clapping.
Yun Shuxinian was speechless.
"You two, get out. I'm going to sleep now," Yun Shuxinian waved her hand languidly, yawned, and then lay back down on the bed, the blanket covering half her head.
"It's late, time to eat. Eat first, then sleep," the masked man walked to Yun Shuxinian's bedside and poked her.
Yun Shuxinian squirmed further inside the blanket.
The masked man smiled helplessly and gestured to the pervert to leave with him.
The ordinary pervert, seeing his boss's doting demeanor, glared at Yun Shuxinian, who was lying on the bed, for a long time with displeasure.
However, when the ordinary pervert turned his head and met the masked man's sharp, disdainful gaze, he immediately transformed back into a soft, seemingly harmless pervert.
The masked man glanced at Yun Rong on the ground. The ordinary pervert immediately understood and, dragging Yun Rong by one arm, pulled him out.
...
Not long after, the pervert returned to the room pushing a cart full of food, accompanied by the masked man.
"Miss Yun, time to eat." The masked man walked to Yun Shuxinian's bedside and poked her.
Yun Shuxinian sat up abruptly from the bed in agitation, about to berate the person disturbing her sleep, but the words that were about to escape her lips suddenly halted.
"What a huge king crab!" Yun Shuxinian's eyes lit up involuntarily.
However, realizing there were two other people in the room, she quickly composed herself.
"Miss Yun, please eat." The masked man pushed the cart a little closer to Yun Shuxinian.
Yun Shuxinian's gaze lingered on the bright red crab shell, and she swallowed involuntarily.
"Miss Yun..." Just as the masked man thought she wouldn't eat, Yun Shuxinian suddenly threw off the blanket and eagerly reached for the king crab.
The masked man looked surprised. "What? Not afraid of poison this time?"
Yun Shuxinian paused, then unhesitatingly peeled off the crab's shell and popped it into her mouth.
"Dying is also inconsequential."
The masked man was surprised. "Miss Yun, when you first woke up, you refused to drink a glass of water I offered, insisting it was poisoned.
Only a few hours have passed, and you've suddenly changed your mind?" The masked man looked at Yun Shuxinian devouring the food and stroked his chin.
"Because... because king crab is delicious." Yun Shuxinian held the crab legs in her hands, deliberately drawing out her words.
The masked man was astonished, but seeing how eagerly Yun Shuxinian ate, he silently poured her a glass of juice.
"Thanks." Yun Shuxinian noticed the masked man's action and took the cup as soon as he finished pouring.
Gulping greedily, she quickly finished the large glass of juice.
The masked man momentarily forgot he was wearing a mask and instinctively raised his hand to cover his mouth, chuckling softly.
The pervert stood aside, his eyes filled with envy and jealousy.
Their wise and mighty, imposing boss was actually pouring juice for her with his own hands! Why this woman? Who exactly was she?
"Don't worry, it's not poisoned," the masked man suddenly said. Yun Shuxinian's movements slowed.
"What? Are you disappointed that I said it's not poisoned?" The masked man stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze fixed on Yun Shuxinian.
The pervert observed all of his boss's reactions, his internal imbalance growing.
The pervert thought that if his boss had a scale in his heart, and if he and this Yun Shuxinian were on opposite trays, he would have been sent flying to the heavens long ago.
"Yes, a little disappointed."
"Then shall I poison it for you?"
The ordinary pervert was unfamiliar with the subtle expressions on his boss's face, but he knew his boss wasn't serious.
When their boss was truly ruthless, he was silent. Just by sitting there, everyone around him could feel the malevolence radiating from him.
"You're not good at poisoning, though. Who poisons someone to their face?" Yun Shuxinian glanced at the masked man, smiling slightly and shaking her head.
She could tell he meant her no harm, but he did seem to wish to die.
"Isn't poisoning to one's face quite humane?
Miss Yun can tell me what kind of poison you want, what kind of cup you'd prefer, and even the time and place. Miss Yun can choose."
The masked man's eyes narrowed slightly. Just by the tone of his voice, the ordinary pervert knew his boss was currently quite pleased.
"Is that so?" Yun Shuxinian flashed a cunning smile.
"Of course."
"Then why don't you send me back to drink my medicine?"
The masked man paused, then said slowly, "Send you back to drink your medicine? Miss Yun, are you afraid I won't know you want to escape?"
"Of course," Yun Shuxinian mumbled with her mouth full of crab meat.
"Why? You have everything you could want here. How can you still think of escaping?" The masked man spread his hands wide, full of confusion.
"Naturally, it's because if I wanted these things after I left, I would have them."
Yun Shuxinian finished the large crab, a look of disappointment on her face. She picked up her chopsticks and listlessly poked at the remaining dishes.
The masked man saw this, his eyes crinkled into a smile again. He subtly tugged at the black tablecloth with his index and middle fingers, revealing the platters of crabs beneath the cart.
Yun Shuxinian's crescent-shaped eyes were now as red as the crabs.
Without hesitation, she grabbed another huge king crab from below.
"Ah!" Yun Shuxinian's crab-peeling action suddenly stopped. Her finger had been scratched by a crab leg.
Seeing this, the masked man immediately reached for Yun Shuxinian's hand, but she instinctively pulled it away.
The pervert, sitting on the ground, keenly sensed that the aura around his boss was beginning to change.
