Xiao Wan's days blended together in a whirlwind of childcare, coding, and curiosity. Ling Ling's adorable antics and sharp mind captivated her, but Li Zhe's enigmatic presence lingered, intriguing her.
One evening, as Xiao Wan helped Ling Ling with her math homework, Li Zhe appeared, his eyes scanning the room.
"Progress?" he asked, his deep voice sending shivers down Xiao Wan's spine.
"Ling Ling's grasping concepts quickly," Xiao Wan replied, smiling.
Li Zhe nodded, his gaze lingering on Xiao Wan. "I'll review the security footage. Ensure Ling Ling's safety."
Xiao Wan's heart skipped a beat. "Security footage?"
Li Zhe's expression turned cryptic. "Precautions, Xiao Wan. My business requires... measures."
As he departed, Xiao Wan's curiosity spiked. What secrets hid behind Li Zhe's masked eyes?
Later, while Ling Ling slept, Xiao Wan snooped through Li Zhe's files, searching for clues. Cryptic messages and encrypted documents swirled before her eyes.
Suddenly, Li Zhe's voice whispered in her ear, "Curiosity can be dangerous, Xiao Wan."
Xiao Wan's heart racing, she spun around. Li Zhe stood inches away, his eyes blazing.
"What are you doing?" he demanded.
Xiao Wan's cheeks flushed. "Just... curious."
Li Zhe's gaze softened, his voice low. "Curiosity can lead to trouble. But I suppose it's also... intriguing."
Their faces inches apart, tension crackled. Xiao Wan's lips parted, expecting...
A sudden knock on the door shattered the moment. "Sir, the meeting."
Li Zhe's expression hardened. "I'll be right there."
As he departed, Xiao Wan exhaled, her heart still racing.
What had just happened?
