My name is Yuan Yingzhang. I'm a quiet, taciturn, honest guy, or so everyone says.
One day, a friend gave me a full-dive game pod and told me not to lose heart over failing a mission, but to unwind in a game instead.
I nodded and agreed.
The game is set in the future, three thousand years after a bloody apocalypse. Humanity's survivors are rebuilding their shelters beneath a barren wasteland.
Once inside the game, I entered a martial arts tournament hosted by the shelter's manager to earn money and unexpectedly won as the dark horse.
My player character was an ordinary survivor in Shelter 007.
The first-place prize was becoming the manager's personal bodyguard.
Me: ...? Wasn't it supposed to be money? (Confused)

Being the manager's bodyguard is really troublesome.
First, I can't call him "Manager." I have to call him "Master."
Second, I have to get up before Master and go to bed after him. Wherever he goes, I have to stay within five meters of him, including when he sleeps.
Also, Master has a cleanliness obsession. Any gifts or items other people give him have to be inspected and disinfected by me before he can accept them.
And Master has strict requirements for his bodyguards' clothes. As his personal bodyguard, I have to dress to suit his tastes and make sure I look pleasing to him.
I closed my notebook and reiterated: Master really is troublesome.
Something serious has happened.
Master seems to have fallen for me.
The butler and doctor both shook their heads and said I was imagining things. Smiling, they patted my back and reassured me: "Dear Yuan, anyone in this building could fall for you, but Master? He's so... well, refined and elegant with everyone. I can hardly imagine what he'd look like in love."
I nodded. "All right."

One sunny midday, Master sat in the back of the car and confessed to me as casually as if he were making small talk.
His expression was as composed and aristocratic as ever.
It had never even crossed his mind that I might turn him down.
When I did, Master was so embarrassed and furious that he lashed out.
Though his beautiful, haughty face still wore an elegant, serene smile, and the curve of his lips had barely changed, I knew he was about to explode.

Master seems not to have considered that a bodyguard has a private life, too.
Master is always so confident. He thinks he can control everything.
Master tossed me a shelter storage card, propped his chin on his hand, and said casually that it held ten million contribution points. He told me to spread my legs and let him sleep with me once.
Master came to my door alone with an umbrella. When I wouldn't open it, he knelt in the rain and begged me.
When will Master finally understand that forcing me, begging me, and trying to buy me off won't work?
First, he has to learn to set aside his pride and seduce me.
