<h4>Chapter 1040: Chapter 1037: You Smell Like Other Women</h4>


    Looking at Zhu Zhu’s serious expression, Xu Wendong’s heart trembled, and an inexplicable unease surged inside him.


    He and Zhu Zhu were really just having fun.


    Their rtionship was purely physical.


    There was no emotional involvement.


    But now, it seems Zhu Zhu wants an emotional involvement too!


    This left him somewhat at a loss.


    If she were single, Xu Wendong wouldn’t mind getting emotional with her; he could even sponsor her without a problem.


    But the issue is, she is a married woman!


    "It’s just a joke with you; weren’t you tough before? Look how scared you are now." Zhu Zhu snorted lightly, then drove towards Jiang Corporation.


    Xu Wendong shrugged and said nonchntly, "If you’re willing to get a divorce, I can take care of you!"

    "As if. Dream on." Zhu Zhu teased, "Yang Bin is my first love; how could I possibly abandon him for you?"


    "Even though he’s not as capable as you, I can buy adult toys."


    Xu Wendong chuckled, "Those things have no warmth; can they feel as good as me?"


    Zhu Zhu rolled her eyes at him, then focused on driving. An hourter, they arrived at Jiang Corporation.


    After arriving at Jiang Corporation, Xu Wendong parted ways with her and went to Yang Tao’s office.


    At the time, Yang Tao wasn’t in the office.


    Out of boredom, he turned on theputer and started watching a movie.


    His job was very rxed; he was only responsible for driving Jiang Xueyao, protecting her on outings.


    While Jiang Xueyao was at thepany, he had nothing to do.


    "Miss Zhu, from now on, you’ll be working in the same office as me!" As Xu Wendong was watching a movie, Yang Tao brought Zhu Zhu into the office.


    Xu Wendong was a bit taken aback.


    So, not only do I work at Jiang Corporation with Zhu Zhu.


    But also in the same office?


    This is quite amusing.


    Zhu Zhu was also surprised to be working in the same office as Xu Wendong, her heart racing, with numerous scenarios of office romances shing through her mind...


    And so.


    Zhu Zhu became part of the office team too.


    However, she did not work in the office all morning but taught Jiang Corporation employees how to use theirpany’s software.


    As a result, even by the time work was over, Xu Wendong had not seen Zhu Zhu.


    After work at noon.


    He drove Jiang Xueyao and Yang Tao back to Tangchen Yipin.


    Although Yang Tao had resumed his position, he still served as Jiang Xueyao’s life assistant, responsible forundry, cooking, and cleaning.


    Jiang Xueyaozilyy on the sofa looking at her phone, giving Xu Wendong a nce, she said indifferently, "You smell like another woman."


    Xu Wendong nervously swallowed, "No way?"


    Jiang Xueyao pursed her lips, "I’m very sensitive to perfume, and I trust my intuition."


    At this point, she sat up and looked seriously at Xu Wendong, "Let’s get straight to the point, why do you want to be my bodyguard?"


    Although she and Xu Wendong were not in a usual employment rtionship, there was no emotional connection between them.


    She was quite repulsed by the scent of another woman’s perfume on Xu Wendong.


    For this reason, she decided to talk directly with Xu Wendong.


    Xu Wendong hesitated but ultimately decided not to continue deceiving Jiang Xueyao, unwilling to persisting in lies even if it might anger her.


    He sat in front of Jiang Xueyao, "My name is Xu Wendong. Two years ago I killed the Eight-Forked Serpent."


    "What?" Jiang Xueyao suddenly stood up, her beautiful eyes full of shock, "You...you’re the rumored Master Xu?"


    Back then, Xu Wendong killing the Eight-Forked Serpent was well-known.


    It’s known that he not only killed the Eight-Forked Serpent.


    After killing the Eight-Forked Serpent, he went to Wa Country alone, causing Wa Country’s economy to regress by thirty years.


    Furthermore, he even burned the Yasukuni Shrine.


    And reimed Great Xia’s precious artifacts from the Tokyo National Museum.


    However.


    After that, Master Xu seemed to disappear from the mortal world, with no news about him.


    But.


    He had already be a belief for many people in the country.


    As a result.


    Many people in the secr world who wish to cultivate use him as a model.


    But, Jiang Xueyao never imagined in her wildest dreams.


    That Xu Wendong was indeed the legendary, mysterious, and powerful Master Xu.


    Xu Wendong acknowledged with a sound, and continued, "No offense, President Jiang, but I currently possess a cultivation levelparable to the Golden Core Stage Peak."


    "However, the cultivation technique I practice is unusually special. To be stronger, I need to undergo dual cultivation with a woman."


    "As for why I became your bodyguard, it dates back to a few days ago when you were returning to Magic Capital from Tokyo."


    "That day we were on the same flight back to China."


    Jiang Xueyao seemed thoughtful, "You approached me because I have a Blue Wave Spiritual Body?"


    "Ah, yes!" Xu Wendong disyed an honest smile, then added, "Firstly, because President Jiang has a Blue Wave Spiritual Body, but more importantly, because I was attracted by President Jiang’s appearance and aura."


    "Really?" Jiang Xueyao’s beautiful eyes revealed a trace of nervousness, although Xu Wendong’s presence carried a strong sense of purpose.


    But, what woman could reject someone being drawn by her appearance and aura?


    Especially when Xu Wendong is the rumored Master Xu.


    "Of course it’s true." Xu Wendong seriously replied, "Even if a plump woman with a face full of wrinkles had a Blue Wave Spiritual Body, I wouldn’t approach her."


    "That analogy isn’t funny at all!" Jiang Xueyao pouted, then asked with concern, "So how is your cultivation going now?"


    "Ahem!" Xu Wendong cleared his throat, "Although we’ve had one dual cultivation session, such things don’t show results in one or two tries."


    Jiang Xueyao’s cold and morous face showed a hint of a young woman’s shyness. She nced at the busy figure in the kitchen, and casually grabbed Xu Wendong’s hand, leading him towards the bedroom.


    At the same time, she called to Yang Tao in the kitchen, "Taozi, after finishing lunch, go ahead and eat, you don’t have to wait for us!"


    Yang Tao: "Got it, President Jiang."


    ------


    Upon entering the bedroom.


    Jiang Xueyaoy nervously on the bed, closing her eyes tightly, suppressing her anxiety and shyness, and whispered, "Go ahead, do what you want to do!"


    Xu Wendong couldn’t help but ask, "President Jiang, don’t you mind that my presence has a motive?"


    Jiang Xueyao slowly opened her eyes, speaking tenderly, "I do feel somewhat ufortable, but your presence not only saved me, but also saved my Jiang Family, sparing us from disaster."


    "If I only focused on your ulterior motives for being around me and ignored your actions for my family, wouldn’t I be an ungrateful person?"


    Pausing here, her face showed a hint of blush, "Besides, doing that with you not only feels good but helps elevate my cultivation level."


    "Since it’s a win-win situation, why should I resist it?"


    Listening to her words, Xu Wendong felt his sense of guilt dissipate, lovingly kissing her alluring red lips, "This time, let me take good care of you!"
