Huo Wen’an returned to his manor alone.

He tapped his fingers on the armrest of his wheelchair, "Zheng Lie."

A young man in red quickly walked over to him.

He was a very strange man, who had been standing by the doorpost of the hall for a long time, yet he seemed to blend into the surrounding air, not drawing anyone’s attention.

But the moment Huo Wen’an summoned him, the temperature of the space he was standing in became scorching.

He was like a spark surrounded by dry grass, ready to ignite fervently at Huo Wen’an’s call.

"Pilot," the man named Zheng Lie quietly stood beside Huo Wen’an, inquiring softly, "Do you have any orders?"

"Is there a gardener on the island by the name of Hong Ruhai?"

Everything on the island, from the identities and backgrounds of each person to the planting year of every big tree, was etched in Zheng Lie’s memory like strings of data.

His brain was like a calculator, able to quickly retrieve the information Huo Wen’an wanted.

Zheng Lie replied, "Hong Ruhai, from Yujiang City, Xia Country, 42 years old this year."

Huo Wen’an nodded, "There really is such a person."

Zheng Lie didn’t proactively ask about Huo Wen’an’s sudden interest in this person, he just silently stayed by Huo Wen’an’s side.

When Huo Wen’an needed him, he could be a sharp, piercing dagger. When Huo Wen’an didn’t need him, he could be a misty, elusive cloud.

Huo Wen’an instructed Zheng Lie, "Transfer him to my side."

Zheng Lie then asked, "What position?"

Huo Wen’an quirked his lips and said, "Didn’t my mom pity my loneliness, wanting to find someone to accompany me after death? Go and bring Hong Ruhai to me. If anyone sees and asks, just say he looks quite to my liking."

Zheng Lie’s perfectly serene, mask-like face finally shattered utterly due to Huo Wen’an’s words.

Zheng Lie suspected he had heard wrong.

He asked, unable to hide his astonishment, "Should I really say that?"

"Yes, really say that."

Zheng Lie left in a daze.

Though Divine Concealment Island is just an island, its area spans more than three thousand square kilometers. Legend says, more than two thousand years ago, a very powerful emperor was secretly buried here.

The place where that emperor was buried is in the heart of Divine Concealment Island.

The burial site of the emperor is said to contain a mysterious weapon that can control the entire world. The Huo Family decided to retire on Divine Concealment Island to locate this legendary ultimate weapon.

As for what that weapon exactly is and where it’s hidden, the Huo Family members have been on the island for years without a single clue.

By now, almost none of the Huo Family believes in the legend anymore.

In the middle of Divine Concealment Island, there is an inland sea, and the Huo Family direct lineage lives near this inland sea. The gardeners and guards are scattered in the residential area on the island.

Many gardeners, from the time they start working on Divine Concealment Island until retirement, spend their entire lives without getting close to the inland sea area.

Hong Ruhai is lucky; because of his handsome looks and knowing how to navigate human interactions, within two or three years after entering the island, he moved from the outermost residential area of Divine Concealment Island to the high-end employee living area not far from Inner Island.

After moving here, on the 20th of every month, he can enter the island’s interior gardens with the captain to work. This also means he is one step closer to truly approaching the Huo Family.

The Huo Family does not restrict the non-working time activities of the household members, so many bars, chess halls, and various leisure and entertainment venues have opened on the island for these people who come to work from around the globe.

Hong Ruhai was playing snooker.

After work, he didn’t need to wear a uniform, so he changed into his private clothes.

He wore an ash-gray long-sleeved shirt, his long legs wrapped in thin suit fabric, and when he bent down to take a shot, his posture was full of sexual tension, making the women next to him parched with excitement.

Hong Ruhai exudes a scholarly demeanor, wearing thin-framed glasses and maintaining a meticulously styled haircut, resembling a cultured, talented, and esteemed professor.

Yet, his physique is paradoxically very sensual. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

In terms of appearance, he is somewhat striking even on Divine Concealment Island.

Upon close observation, one can find that Xu Zeqing actually shares some of Hong Ruhai’s aura. However, if they were to stand together, it would be evident who is the luxury item and who is the counterfeit.
