Tang Wutong's exquisitely beautiful face froze instantly. Her pink-blue eyes widened, and she nearly thought she had misheard.
Watch... the house?
Me?
The dignified Daughter of a God King, a first-class Goddess of Beauty, was being left behind to... watch, watch the house?
How was that any different from being a watchdog?!
An indescribable surge of humiliation and frustration flooded her heart, making her want to retort at once.
Yet the moment that thought arose, she felt Lu Jun's gaze settle on her again. His eyes were so calm that they sent a chill through her heart, as though they could pierce through her skin and look directly at that insignificant shred of resistance buried deep within her soul.
Tang Wutong's delicate body shuddered violently, as if invisible ice water had been poured over her head. All her dissatisfaction and grievance froze in an instant.
She hurriedly lowered her head, unconsciously clutching the hem of her clothes. Her voice was as faint as a mosquito's buzz, carrying a barely perceptible tremble.
"Yes... yes, I understand. I... I'll definitely watch the house properly!"
"I guarantee I won't let any suspicious person or thing come near. Please, please rest assured!"
She even instinctively straightened her back, assuming a posture close to "mission guaranteed," though her lowered eyelids and faintly flushed cheeks exposed the complexity and submission in her heart.
Only then did Lu Jun give an almost imperceptible nod. He no longer looked at her, turning to leave the villa with Snow Empress and Ice Empress.
Tang Wutong was left standing alone in the empty living room, staring at the closed door as chaos and wailing filled her heart.
I actually... really accepted the role of a watchdog?
*Tang Wutong, you're the Goddess of Beauty, a princess of the God Realm! Where
