"Alright, then I'll leave this place to you, Uncle. I'm going home now."
"Alright, I'll send someone to escort you."
"No need for that, I think I'm the best insurance."
After saying goodbye to Li Meng, Bai Yueyue, along with Hu Meier and Lin Zhaodi, boarded the car back to the manor.
After replying to Li Jieyue, Bai Yueyue looked at Lin Zhaodi, who was looking down at her hands and legs.
Bai Yueyue placed her hand in Lin Zhaodi's hand. Lin Zhaodi looked up in fear. Bai Yueyue had already removed her veil and soothed Lin Zhaodi's uneasy heart with a gentle smile: "It's okay, I'm here."
"Mm." Lin Zhaodi nodded gently.
"Ahem, Miss, please be mindful of your status." Hu Meier coughed lightly in the passenger seat, casually reminding him.
"Hmm, Mei'er, you must be jealous, right?" Bai Yueyue withdrew her hand and smiled at Hu Mei'er.
"No, it's the personal attendant's duty to ensure that the young lady always maintains an aristocratic demeanor."
"Eh, is that so?"
But she's definitely jealous, isn't she? Hehe, my personal attendant is so cute.
After a bumpy three-hour journey, they finally arrived back at the manor. To Bai Yueyue's surprise, even at 2 a.m., there were still quite a few people waiting to greet her.
Hu Meier got out of the car first and opened the door for Bai Yueyue. As soon as Bai Yueyue stepped out, she seemed to have switched personalities and put on a faint, professional smile.
"Welcome home, Miss!" Led by Zhao Shuli, a large group of people shouted in unison. The synchronized voices gave Bai Yueyue goosebumps. Wow, if this keeps up, I'm going to become decadent!
"Zhao Shuli, let everyone go back and rest," Bai Yueyue ordered, noticing that many people looked tired.
"Yes, ma'am. Thank you for your kindness, young lady." Led by Zhao Shuli, the group thanked Bai Yueyue and said goodbye before returning to the servants' quarters.
Only Bai Yueyue, Zhao Shuli, Hu Meier, and Lin Zhaodi, who was terrified by the scene, remained at the scene.
"Miss, you must be tired from your journey. Madam has ordered some fish soup and other food to be prepared for you. Please move to the dining room and enjoy it with Madam."
Wow, there are fish! Bai Yueyue was pleasantly surprised, but she made a regretful expression and said, "I am very grateful to Mother, but I am very tired today and hope to go back to my room to rest as soon as possible."
Waaaaah, my poor little fish, I can't enjoy you today because I'm much more afraid of facing Mother than you.
"I'm sorry to trouble you so much, Miss, but Madam has ordered you to go."
Well, my lovely fish, I guess I'll have to reluctantly enjoy you.
After all, it's about finding joy in hardship. If I were to imagine how Li Jieyue would blame me, I would be too pathetic. It's better to think about positive things.
"Okay, I understand. This is the guest I brought back; I will take her to meet Mother."
"Madam has already informed us that if the eldest young lady brings guests back, we should all go together to meet Madam."
Taking a deep breath to make sure she didn't show any unease, she walked ahead, followed by Zhao Shuli behind Bai Yueyue. Lin Zhaodi seemed a little lost, and only after Hu Meier gently reminded her from behind did she follow behind Zhao Shuli.
"Good evening, Mother." When I arrived at the restaurant, Li Jieyue was already waiting for me.
"It's good that you're back." Li Jieyue nodded gently, and her personal attendant behind her began to serve a midnight snack.
“But Mother, it’s so late. If you don’t rest, your daughter will be unhappy because she’s worried about your health.” Bai Yueyue stepped forward and sat down next to Li Jieyue with Hu Meier’s help.
"Hehe, if I didn't know that my lovely daughter would bring me troublesome news, I would also be happy to rest early."
Wait, that's too much! Am I really that troublesome?
"Please take a seat, guests. I've had some food prepared for you. Hu Meier, you must be tired, go and enjoy your supper. Zhao Shuli can take care of the poison testing and serving." Li Jieyue said, looking at the two people behind Bai Yueyue.
"Since Mother has said so, Mei'er, come back after you finish your meal."
"Yes, Miss and Madam." As a personal attendant, the most important thing is to understand the unspoken meaning of the master's words. Clearly, the two did not want him to know about their conversation.
“Then, Madam, please allow me and your personal attendant to prepare rooms for our guests,” Zhao Shuli said after completing the poison test.
"I grant you permission."
After everyone had left, Li Jieyue turned her attention to Bai Yueyue and Lin Zhaodi.
"Yueyue, please introduce yourself to the guests," Li Jieyue said.
Lin Zhaodi was already mentally prepared. Her parents wouldn't be coming to her parent-teacher conferences, but Li Jieyue and Bai Zhenhao would often come together, so she knew Li Jieyue. And now she heard Li Jieyue call this silver-haired witch Yueyue.
"Yes, Mother. Hello, Lin Zhaodi. I'm sorry to have kept this from you all this time. I'm your classmate, Bai Yueyue." After a brief introduction, Lin Zhaodi quickly accepted the introduction.
“So you must keep this a secret,” Bai Yueyue reminded her, while also telling Lin Zhaodi the identity Qin Zhenming had told her about. “From now on, this will be my background.”
"I understand." Lin Zhaodi nodded gently. Even if Bai Yueyue hadn't reminded her, she would have kept it a secret for Bai Yueyue.
"So, Lin Zhaodi, although Yueyue has promised to protect you, I still need to ask you again: do you want to stay by Yueyue's side indefinitely? Considering our relationship, I will arrange for you to become Yueyue's personal attendant; of course, if you don't want to, I will continue to support you until you finish university and find a job. But whichever decision you make, because Yueyue has promised to protect you, I also guarantee that no one will be able to disturb your life from now on."
Li Jieyue once again displayed the aura of a superior. Although she was smiling, Bai Yueyue could sense the sharpness in her expression.
"I was saved by Yueyue. She gave me a glimmer of hope. Without her, I don't know what my life would be like. So I hope I can serve Bai Yueyue like Miss Hu Meier did." This was the first time Bai Yueyue had heard Lin Zhaodi speak such a long sentence since she took Lin Zhaodi back.
"I see." Li Jieyue withdrew her oppressive aura and nodded gently. "In that case, I will have Zhao Shuli teach you how to become a personal attendant. Similarly, after becoming a personal attendant, your life will revolve solely around Yueyue."
"Thank you so much. I am willing to entrust my life to Bai Yueyue from now on."
"Then, please sign this contract."
Hey! You've made this decision already? Didn't anyone ask for my opinion? And Lin Zhaodi, don't say such embarrassing things! And don't sign that contract without even reading it!
"Well, Yueyue, now that you're back early, and it's Monday, please prepare for the daytime assessment. I'll have Hu Meier tell you about this week's schedule."
Oh? Mother, that's so unfair! Please give me a day off!
