197 THE BURDEN WAS GONE

When Hu Lei woke up, it was already in the afternoon. Since she had nothing urgent to handle, she did not rush. She took a long bath, dressed up and went downstairs for lunch. Housekeeper Li smiled with genuine happiness when he saw her.

"Miss Hu, it has been a while. How have you been?" He ushered her to the dining room with the flattering expression of a lackey.

The servants in the Area 99 villa had come to love Hu Lei during the time she spent there. She was not a haughty person. She would not make life difficult for the people who worked in the house. Moreover, she was kind an open. Her cute appearance also won the favour of the older workers in the villa.

Unfortunately, she had not come back to the house for a while which meant that there was no one to take care of. It was always difficult for the maids, the chef and the butler when no one was in the house. They always felt listless because they would only do routine meaningless tasks without a goal.
