Chapter 5: Women's part-time jobs
The original owner is a student at S University, a senior this year, majoring in international economics and trade. Because he started school earlier, he is two years younger than his classmates and is 20 this year.
Sheng Baili flipped through the old chat records and found that the original owner went to college at the age of 16, but his family not only did not pay for tuition and living expenses, but also required the original owner to pay 1,000 yuan per month for household expenses.
In order to support the blood-sucking family, the original owner worked part-time every day besides attending classes and doing homework. He delivered food, distributed flyers, wiped plates, served drinks... He did almost all the jobs he could.
Sheng Baili sighed and shook his head. It would be better to leave such a wonderful family.
Lu Zhouyan parked the car at S University and said, "Get out."
Sheng Baili was about to fall asleep in the car, and squinted his eyes in a daze, "Are we here? Thank you."
Quiet air flowed in the closed car. Sheng Baili didn't know what else to say and was about to get out of the car wearing his suit jacket.
"Wait." Lu Zhouyan stopped her and said, "Leave your coat behind."
Sheng Baili: “…”
Sheng Baili was stunned. She had completely forgotten the existence of her coat.
Haicha gave a crazy suggestion: "No! Host, don't return it to the hero yet, just say you are cold... Wait until you go back and wash yourself and then return it to him, then you will have another chance to meet him!"
That makes sense, Sheng Baili said as he was told.
But upon hearing this, Lu Zhouyan responded calmly: "Don't give it to me, just throw it away."
I don’t want to listen to the wonderful psychological activities of little girls anymore :)
Sheng Baili: “….”
[He just wanted a coat, but he didn't want it anymore after I told him? ]
[It's hard to guess what a man is thinking. What does he really mean?]
[Should I give it back to him now? Never mind, it’s a bit cold, I’ll just wear it and go…]
......
Sheng Baili walked away in his suit jacket, his slender and straight legs just touching the ground. The next second, the car behind him whizzed away, as if drifting.
"Lu Zhouyan definitely escaped, he ran so fast." Sheng Baili confirmed again.
Haicha: "..." She pulled up the data and said solemnly: "No, the male protagonist drives fast because he is a first-class racing driver. Lu Zhouyan has been raised in a wealthy family since he was a child, and he has not escaped hardship."
"Oh, awesome."
Sheng Baili yawned, "What should we do next?"
Graduation is approaching, and the original owner has not passed the CET-6 yet. He has to take the exam soon, and this time he will have to postpone his graduation.
The review time is tight, and the strategy for conquering the male protagonist also depends on her schedule.
"Let me see..." Haicha flipped through the pages, "Oh, it's almost time. Your mother works as a maid in the Lu family. Because she is sick, she wants you to help her for two days. Then you will have the opportunity to live in the Lu family."
The original owner's parents favored boys over girls. Dad Sheng worked as a security guard at the Lu family estate, and Mom Sheng worked as a maid. The two of them took their younger brother to live with them and took care of him, but they ignored Sheng Baili who lived in their hometown. Not only did they not give him living expenses when he went to college, but they also required Sheng Baili to hand over one thousand yuan every month after his senior year.
What kind of favor is that if you only give birth to a child but don't raise him? Sheng Baili would not be kidnapped by her and would not give her a penny, but since this was an opportunity to get close to the male protagonist, she reluctantly agreed.
"Do I really have to go the route of conquering the male protagonist?" Sheng Baili asked.
Haicha nodded like a little chicken pecking at rice, "The system chose you to travel through the book just to let you complete the mission."
"If the mission is not completed, will I be wiped out?" Sheng Baili asked.
“Uh…” Haicha was stunned. “Well, maybe,” he mumbled it over and paused while eating.
Sheng Baili yawned, went back to the dormitory and fell asleep.
-
When she woke up in the morning and saw the black suit, Sheng Baili was confused for a while.
"Cha Cha, do I really want to throw this dress away? It feels like such a waste."
She doesn't even have 2,000 yuan in her card now. Lu Zhouyan's coat is obviously very valuable, even if it is second-hand... it can be sold for a lot of money.
Haicha: "There's no difference between selling and throwing it away. I've already given you the clothes, so it would be such a waste to throw them away."
Sheng Baili nodded, tapped his fingers on the second-hand platform and hung the clothes out.
[Italian handmade custom suits, carefully selected by the CEO, at rock-bottom prices]
Price: 500.
Sheng Baili felt that he had a good conscience.
When folding clothes, he accidentally touched something bulging in his pocket. Sheng Baili took it out and saw that it was a dark green water ghost, which looked very valuable.
Sheng Baili kept the watch close to her body, preparing to return it to the male protagonist next time they met.
There were no classes in the senior year, so Sheng Baili studied for the Level 6 exam and went to the library to study with his schoolbag on his back.
After listening to a set of listening exercises, Sheng Baili began to memorize words, abandon, abandon...
Five minutes later, Sheng Baili fell asleep on the table. The girl's small nostrils were slightly flared. She was in the library, sleeping soundly.
When she woke up, she just received a message from her mother.
[Zhuang Fang: I am sick. Please come over tomorrow and take over my shift for two days.]
[Zhuang Fang: [Address]]
【Zhuang Fang: Remember to come, otherwise you will lose two days’ wages.】
Sheng Baili replied with a 1, and then looked at a certain fish app and found that someone had already bought the coat.
Not bad, not bad. Although it doesn’t have a brand, there are still many people with good taste.
【Buyer: [I have purchased it and am waiting for the seller to ship it] Is it authentic? 】
【Sheng Baili: Yes.】
The buyer’s address is also shown to be in S City, a well-known villa area.
Rich people really know what they are doing.
Sheng Baili sent out the clothes that night. Before going to bed, he struggled to do a set of CET-6 mock exams and scored 398 points.
“.......”
Haicha comforted her: "It's okay, host, you are an art student, this score is not shameful."
Sheng Baili said seriously: "Art is an excuse for rookies to make excuses."
"Yes, yes—" Haicha was about to agree, but Sheng Baili continued, "I'm a rookie, I won't make excuses."
Haicha: “….”
The next day, Sheng Baili arrived at the Yushuiwan Manor on time and changed into servants' clothes - white shirts and black pants, with their hair neatly combed.
However, the male protagonist did not show up all day.
[Don't worry, the Lu family is celebrating Mr. Lu's birthday tonight, and Lu Zhouyan will be back for dinner. ]
Sheng Baili was not panicking. The goods he had sent out yesterday showed that they had been signed for. The buyer sent him a message, and Sheng Baili clicked on it to see it.
【Susie: Baili?】
[Sheng Baili:? ]
【Susie: Haha, it's you. This is Lu Zhouyan's coat, right? You actually bought his coat, and only paid 500 yuan!】
[Sheng Baili: None of your business]
[Susie: So poor, no wonder she wears Chenel]
[Susie: Wait, I'll tell him]
Sheng Baili: “…”
[Hai Cha, how come we are both Captors, but Ji Susu turns into a rich lady, while I am so poor?] Sheng Baili asked this soul-searching question.
[Uh-huh, this...] Haicha couldn't find a reason to explain, so she said nonsense: [Maybe it's because you're prettier, so the difficulty is higher.]
Sheng Baili: “Haha.”
Finally, it was the evening birthday party. Cars kept driving into the manor and guests came in one after another.
Sheng Baili, as a maid, stood aside with her head bowed.
[Such a boring job. My legs are so sore from standing.]
[Why hasn't Lu Zhouyan appeared yet? What is he doing, and does he think he can be proud just because he's the male lead? ]
[Just memorize the words, abandon, abandon... Can I abandon Lu Zhouyan? ]
Haicha: “…”
But she didn't stand there for long before the housekeeper arranged for her to be a waitress. Sheng Baili then carried a wine tray and moved among the celebrities and dignitaries.
Rich boy 1: "That maid looks so familiar, I feel like I've seen her somewhere before...?"
Rich Boy 2: "Ah, isn't this the girl that Young Master Lu chose to dance with at the Cheng family charity dinner a few days ago?"
Rich Boy 3: "Why is she the maid of the Lu family?"
Rich Kid 4: "I think he wants to take advantage of this opportunity to climb up the Lu family's high branch. I have seen this kind of tricks many times."
As they were talking, they called the pretty maid over and asked, "Can you drink?"
Sheng Baili looked puzzled and refused these playboys' request for a drink.
"You can't drink?" One of them looked Sheng Baili up and down and smiled intimately: "If you can't drink, how can you get close to Master Lu?"
"It's quite interesting. I'm wearing a uniform and playing cosplay today."
"Mr. Lu is going to marry Miss Ji. I advise you to give up. How about you look at me?"
......
Sheng Baili didn't show it on his face, but he was swearing like crazy in his heart.
[What kind of crazy friends are these, Lu Zhouyan? They have no manners at all.]
[These days, having a few lousy bucks is a big deal. Even an idiot can be a master.]
[No, Lu Zhouyan is going to marry Ji Susu? ......]
[System, why don’t I have any cheat codes?]
.......
The girl held the wine tray in her hands and lowered it, with her slender white arms placed in front of her body. She looked neither humble nor arrogant, but she did not respond. Her head, which was tied in a high ponytail, hung indifferently, with a look of cold, stubbornness and unwillingness to yield.
The group of playboys were aroused by their desire to conquer and spoke even more excitedly.
"What are you talking about?"
A low, unfocused voice came lazily.
Lu Zhou Yanmai walked over with his long legs, his strong and smooth legs wrapped in well-tailored trousers. He was still wearing a black suit with a Windsor knot tied at the collar very elegantly.
There was a hint of smile on the corner of his lips, but the smile did not reach his eyes, which frightened everyone so much that they dared not say a word.
"Lu, Mr. Lu." The man smiled flatteringly, "We are just chatting with this maid, nothing more..."
【Stupid stupid stupid stupid stupid...】
Lu Zhouyan: "......"
Lu Zhouyan was so annoyed by the noise that his voice became even colder. "Do you like drinking?"
"In that case, on Grandpa's birthday, please drink the remaining box of wine to celebrate." Lu Zhouyan looked at him with a smile, "Young Master Ye, do you have any objections?"
"No, no..." Ye Bin regretted it so much. How come he just happened to be bumped into by Lu Shao?
Who is this maid? Young Master Lu helped her...
Haicha: [Oh my god, is Lu Zhouyan helping you? ]
Haicha: [It seems that our strategy is very effective. He has taken you to heart! ]
Sheng Baili didn't care.
[He has some character, not being in league with the idiots]
[What results have been achieved? Haven't you heard of anyone getting married? ]
Haicha: [A forced melon is not sweet, you and the male lead are the true love! Come on, soft little clip]
Sheng Baili: “…” I want to abandon.
"Come here." Lu Zhouyan closed his eyes slowly, not wanting to hear a certain word again: "Did you lose your clothes?"
Sheng Baili remained calm: "Yeah."
Lu Zhouyan was silent for two seconds, and his gaze from above was very oppressive. Sheng Baili suddenly remembered the watch, so he took the initiative to mention it: "Mr. Lu, you forgot your watch. It's in your suit pocket."
As she spoke, she took the watch out from her body and returned it to its original owner.
[You are so forgetful and stupid, but luckily I am here. 】
[Since I have kept such an expensive watch for the male protagonist, it is not too much to sell him a suit, right? He doesn’t even know it is too much, hehe. 】
[Returning lost property is a sign of a good conscience.]
Lu Zhouyan, who listened carefully: ":)"
After taking the watch back, Lu Zhouyan's ears were clear. From last night to today, God knows what he had heard.
Boring strategy game.
Lu Zhouyan glanced at the obedient and conscientious female leader and sneered.
Sheng Baili looked up blankly: "?"
"S University?" Lu Zhouyan asked.
Sheng Baili said yes.
"Top student." Lu Zhouyan said lazily, his voice a little bit harsh: "You are not needed here, go to the reception over there." He pointed casually.
Sheng Baili followed his gaze and looked -
I saw a group of blond-haired and blue-eyed foreigners.
"......"
Thanks for the invitation, but this is not a circle that a top student with a score of 398 can fit into.
