Li Yang followed the ninja subordinates into the building and took the elevator directly to the top floor.
Finally, Li Yang was led to the door of an office. The ninja said to him, "Mr. Li, Miss Fengchun is waiting for you in this office. You can go in and find her."
"Okay, I understand."
After Li Yang agreed, he watched the subordinates turn and leave. He pushed open the door alone and walked inside.
The office spanned over a hundred square meters, equipped with everything from a workspace to a gym and a tea-drinking area.
As Li Yang entered, he saw a beautiful woman in a black uniform sitting behind a large desk in a leather chair, engrossed in her computer. It was Zaori Fengchun.
From this angle, Zaori Fengchun's figure was incredibly voluptuous, making it impossible to look away.
Li Yang approached her and said with a smile, "Miss Fengchun, it's been a while. We meet again."
"Mr. Li, you're here. Please have a seat."
Upon seeing Li Yang, Zaori Fengchun's face lit up with a radiant smile. She stood up first, proactively making tea for Li Yang, then brought it over and handed it to him with both hands, saying, "Mr. Li, please have some tea first. We can chat slowly after you've had some."
"Miss Fengchun, with your noble status, personally serving me tea is quite unexpected. However, it's your kind gesture, so I respectfully accept."
Li Yang replied politely. As he reached out to take the tea, Zaori Fengchun's slender fingers deliberately brushed against his.
Her gaze towards Li Yang was also tinged with a hint of allure, making one's heart flutter.
"Mr. Li, you don't need to be so formal with me. Haven't our relationship already progressed? Although I am the young lady of the Longtian Society, and you are just a mere ninja."
"But I, Zaori Fengchun, have always been bold in love and hate. Since I like you, no one can stop us from being together."
As Zaori Fengchun spoke, her lips gradually moved closer to Li Yang's ear. When a puff of warm air blew in, Li Yang couldn't help but tremble all over.
In reality, Zaori Fengchun was genuinely interested in him now. His previous performance had given her a strong sense of security.
And this was exactly the kind of man Zaori Fengchun needed.
However, for Li Yang, if she weren't from Sakura Country, he might have already been completely captivated by her seduction and beauty.
But he knew her identity all too well and could never get involved with this woman.
Li Yang quickly dodged away and looked back at Zaori Fengchun, saying, "Miss Fengchun, please don't joke with me. What happened in your office last time was just a misunderstanding. I already have a girlfriend, so I naturally won't consider you."
"Mr. Li, I don't mind if you have a girlfriend, so what are you worried about? Besides, I won't tell your girlfriend about us. Are you really not going to consider me?"
Zaori Fengchun continued to lean in, emitting a very peculiar fragrance.
This scent was enough to make any man lose control after prolonged exposure.
As someone well-versed in medicine, Li Yang could easily identify this special sandalwood.
He still refused decisively, "Miss Fengchun, if you have something to say, please tell me directly. I will do my best to help you with whatever I can."
"Alright, since you're so unwilling, I won't force you."
Seeing that Li Yang was so difficult to tempt, Zaori Fengchun's expression suddenly turned serious. She returned to her seat and directly commanded, "I have discovered the whereabouts of the second treasure map and need you to retrieve it for me."
"You can get along harmoniously with Chinese people, so this task should be easy for you. As long as you bring it back, I will give you merit and have my father promote you to leader."
"Then you can consider me, it won't be too late."
Li Yang responded with the expected reaction of a normal ninja. Being promoted to leader was the lifelong dream of every ninja subordinate.
Now that he was an undercover agent, he needed to show his worth at this moment.
"Of course, but don't get too happy too soon. I must inform you in advance that this mission is not simple and is fraught with danger. I have already sent out several experts, but they all failed."
"If you fail to complete the mission, I will personally cut off your head!"
Zaori Fengchun said sternly, a sharp glint flashing in her eyes.
She said this intentionally to intimidate Li Yang.
Less than two seconds later, her eyes darted, and she continued, "Of course, you have another option: to be my man. Not only will I help you achieve merit, but I will also protect you."
She believed that no matter how foolish Li Yang was, he would know what choice to make now.
After all, one involved risking his life, while the other involved embracing a beauty and enjoying wealth and status.
However, Li Yang felt very confused at this moment. Why was this woman staring at him? Was it because he was handsome? Was she a love-struck fool?
"Okay, then I'll choose the first option. I will definitely complete the mission and return." Li Yang thought for a moment, but still did not let Zaori Fengchun have her way, and said decisively.
"Are you sure you choose the first option?"
Zaori Fengchun froze on the spot. This outcome was completely unexpected. Li Yang, faced with beauty and riches, chose to take risks instead.
Li Yang said resolutely, "That's right, I'm sure. Miss Fengchun just needs to wait for my good news. I will definitely not disappoint Miss Fengchun."
After speaking, Li Yang stood up, bowed, and continued, "If Miss Fengchun has nothing else, I will take my leave."
"Wait!"
Zaori Fengchun quickly caught up to Li Yang's steps, pulled him back, and suddenly hugged him tightly, feeling his masculine aura. She said, "Mr. Li, I didn't intentionally make you take risks, nor am I eager to have you."
"I just need you to be my shield. If I can't make you my boyfriend, my father will send people to forcibly take me back."
"What do you mean?" Li Yang asked her, confused.
Li Yang wondered if this woman had some hidden difficulties that she was only revealing now.
"Actually, I wasn't sent by my father this time, but I ran away secretly. My father has already arranged a marriage for me. He thinks that as a girl, I am not suitable to inherit the family business and treats me as a bargaining chip."
Zaori Fengchun sighed deeply and said, "I ran away this time both to avoid the marriage and to prove my own strength."
