Today is Sunday, the hostess He Man's new lover is coming over.

The doorbell rings, I stand at the corner of the second floor and look down, a tall and burly man walks in.

He asks the maid, "Has Xiaoman and Huzi gotten up?"

The maid replies, "Madam woke up early, she's in Huzi's room."

The man casually hands the bag to the maid, "I'm taking them out to play later, we won't be eating at home today, pack up what needs to be taken."

He exudes the air of a male host.

I pick up my phone and secretly take a picture of him.

The man is sharp, his gaze sweeps over like a sword.

I meet his eyes, then casually lower my head, playing with my phone as I walk downstairs.

We pass each other on the stairs, the man glances at me and quietly asks the accompanying maid, "Who is this?"

The maid explains, "Guo Xiaoyun, Huzi's live-in tutor."

He grunts and continues upstairs.

Not long after, the man carries the crying Huzi downstairs, followed by the smiling former sister-in-law He Man.

Seeing me in the living room, He Man instructs, "Teacher Guo, the three of us are going out, we'll be back late, you're free to do as you please."

I thank her and watch them leave, also noting down the man's license plate number.

Back at the villa, I casually ask the maid, "Who is that man?"

The maid, full of gossip, whispers to me, "He's the madam's boyfriend, they're about to get married."

"That man looks like a boss, what business does he do?"

"He used to be a fitness trainer, he opened a gym with the help of the madam to become a boss."

I chuckle, "No wonder, he looks quite fierce."

The maid scoffs, "Indeed, according to the previous maid, that man used to work at a mental hospital, then switched to being a trainer, how could he not look fierce?"

I have a thought, "Huzi mentioned that his real dad was sent in by this man, seems quite capable."

The maid looks mysterious, "The madam is most afraid of mentioning her ex-husband, if Huzi brings it up, she explodes, so be careful not to touch a sore spot."

I go to my room and take out the photo album, "Sis, while the madam is away, I'll put the album back to avoid her getting upset when she sees it."

The maid is busy and tells me the storeroom is unlocked, letting me go on my own.

This is just what I wanted, I say, "You carry on, I'll quickly head to the basement."
