Chapter 11: First day at Work
Ling Feiji yawned and stretched out on her bed, she smiled when she remembered the night before. She had certainly shown that she was not to be messed with! But she frowned when she realized she would have to work for Lu Shangbi.

Lu Shangbi woke up disgruntled, tired, and craving a red bean bun. He was still sour about the maid's rejection and the mysterious figure who beat up his sister and snuck into his room.
