498: Shy beauty Zheng Yaqin

“No, this absolutely cannot continue. This time, let me, your older sister, make the decision for you and get you one day of rest!” With that, the female worker left her post and headed to Chen Xuan’s small house.

“Sister Liu, don’t…” Zheng Yaqin tried to stop her, but the female worker named Liu had already disappeared.

“Yes, we all agree! When you work for Little Chen Supervisor, he’ll definitely feel for you when he sees how haggard you are. At that time, he’ll surely give you an Immortal Rank Life Leaf!”

“I…”

“I’m back!” The female worker named Liu, who had just left, returned, which made the women present a bit stunned.

“I say… you’re back so soon?”

“Of course! Little Chen Supervisor approved it in a second, what else would I do if I didn’t come back?”

“He, he approved it? But I haven’t agreed yet…” Zheng Yaqin’s face flushed with shyness.

“Just one day of rest, what is there to agree to, Yaqin? You are the most beautiful and charming among all of us female workers. This time, going to assist Little Chen Supervisor, you must seize the opportunity! If you can gain his favor and good impression, you can escape this bitter sea!” the female worker continued.

“Sister Wang! You, what are you saying! My son has already Ascended, how could I possibly…” Zheng Yaqin’s face turned crimson hearing everyone say this.

“So what?”

“Exactly, so what? Who among those who have Ascended doesn't have some kind of story! Besides, your son is probably still working hard in the Mining Field right now. If you win over Little Chen Supervisor, wouldn't your mother and son’s future lives be… Hahaha!”

“Sister Liu~” Zheng Yaqin stomped her foot shyly.

But hearing what the many female workers said, the emotions in her heart began to become a bit subtle.

“Alright, I won’t tease you anymore. Finish your work today, and tomorrow you can report to Little Chen Supervisor.”

“Alright, I… I’ll give it a try.” Zheng Yaqin finally nodded.

“That’s great, Yaqin, you’ve finally come to your senses!” The female worker clapped her hands happily.

“Yes, it’s not a good feeling for us to see you getting haggard day by day. Now it’s good, Little Chen Supervisor is letting you rest, you’re saved!”

Zheng Yaqin smiled, but her heart was still a bit uneasy.

Although the female workers were teasing her and Chen Xuan, she didn't know Chen Xuan's true thoughts.

“Sigh, never mind, don’t think so much. Anyway, there’s no other way, so… just treat it as a rest!” Zheng Yaqin thought, then returned to her post and continued mining.

The many female workers looked at Zheng Yaqin’s back, and a strange light flickered in their eyes.

“I say, Old Liu, your acting is terrible. How can you leave one moment and come back the next? Isn’t that obviously acting?!”

“Uh, I, I’m just too used to being underground, I’ve never acted before. I’ll pay attention next time, next time!”

“Hmph, Zheng Yaqin has already agreed, what next time is there! We can just go to Little Chen Supervisor to collect our Immortal Rank Life Leaf after work!”

“Tsk tsk, this Zheng Yaqin really has good fortune, to be so remembered by Little Chen Supervisor!”

“Bah, isn’t it because you’re ugly!”

“Go away, go away!”

…

Early the next morning, Zheng Yaqin arrived at the Mining Field early, in front of the small stone house Chen Xuan had built for himself.

At this moment, for some unknown reason, she had specially dressed herself up meticulously.

At this moment, she was wearing a dark blue long dress, with delicate orchids embroidered on the hem, and a silk ribbon tied around her waist, outlining her figure just right.

And she had specially coiled her hair, fixed with an exquisite hairpin, with a light makeup on her face, and a touch of bright red lip gloss on her lips, making her whole person appear both elegant and grand.

Standing at the door, she hesitated for a moment, and finally knocked on the door.

“Who is it!”

“It’s me… Zheng Yaqin! Today, today I’m here to assist… to assist Little Chen Supervisor!” Zheng Yaqin said timidly at the door.

“The door isn’t locked, come in.”

“Oh.” After getting permission, Zheng Yaqin reached out and gently pushed open the door.

Then, she took a deep breath, mustered her courage, and carefully lifted her small, elegant foot, stepping into Chen Xuan’s small stone house.

However, the moment she stepped into the room, her gaze inadvertently swept over the scene inside, and immediately, a burning hot sensation rushed to her cheeks, making her originally fair face instantly turn crimson.

She saw Chen Xuan standing there, surprisingly, only wearing a loose bathrobe, with the belt loosely tied, revealing a large expanse of his strong chest and well-defined muscles.

Zheng Yaqin was flustered, her mind blank, and she instinctively turned to flee from this incredibly embarrassing place.

But before she could take two steps, a strong hand suddenly reached out and firmly grasped her slender wrist.

“No, why do you run away as if you’ve seen a ghost when you see me? Do you think I’m the kind of person who would eat you?”

Chen Xuan looked at Zheng Yaqin with confusion, his brows slightly furrowed.

At this moment, Zheng Yaqin’s heart pounded violently, as if it was about to burst out of her throat, and she could only hear the fierce thumping of her own heart: “Thump, thump, thump.”

She lowered her head, not daring to look at Chen Xuan, and stammered, “No, it’s not like that, it’s just… it’s just that I feel your attire is a bit too…”

At this point, she was too embarrassed to continue, and her pretty face turned even redder.

“What’s so strange about this! It’s just a bathrobe, it’s not some rare item. Could it be that you’ve never seen a bathrobe before?”

Chen Xuan shrugged indifferently, seemingly completely unaware of how much impact his handsome appearance was having on Zheng Yaqin at this moment.

“No, it’s not, but… Zheng Yaqin said, pointing at Chen Xuan with her other hand.

Chen Xuan lowered his head and instantly understood.

“Cough cough, it’s early in the morning, and you woke me up again, so…”

“But it’s okay, I’ll go get ready now, you just wait for me here. I’ll arrange work for you in a bit.” Chen Xuan said, then pulled Zheng Yaqin to the table and left the living room.

Zheng Yaqin sat on the chair, her hands tightly clasped on her knees, her heart thumping like a restless Little Rabbit.
