The two shouted very loudly, and passersby turned to look at them.
Countless gazes fell upon her, and Lin Xi was extremely embarrassed, her toes curling up and digging into the ground.
Butler Liu and Village Chief Li are indeed good friends who came from the same school.
The facial expressions, movements, and tone of voice were all exactly the same; it was incredibly professional.
Fu Jingyao remained silent.
An eerie silence fell over the surroundings, and Butler Liu frantically tried to signal with his eyes.
Dude, what are you yelling about?
Sorry, it's muscle memory.
Village Chief Li chuckled awkwardly, "Haha, I trained with Xiao Liu before, and I blurted that out without thinking. Please don't mind, I'm sorry."
Butler Liu introduced, "Young Master, Young Madam, this is my classmate and friend, Li Defu, who is now the village chief of Hualu Village."
Lin Xi waved, "Village Chief Li, we meet again."
Village Chief Li finally discovered that the young mistress Xiao Liu had mentioned was a master.
What a small world! We can actually bump into each other like this.
His eyes widened. "Master! You're the pitiful young mistress that Little Liu mentioned?! And this young master, you..."
"Mmm..."
Butler Liu covered his mouth tightly, "What nonsense are you spouting? Are you having another episode?"
Village Chief Li asked with his eyes.
Xiao Liu, you said to yourself that the young master was no good and came specifically to ask for the secret recipe. Now you're saying I'm sick. Who's sick here?
Butler Liu pretended not to see and blurted out, "Oh, my poor friend, he has recently suffered a great shock and has developed some mental problems, often talking nonsense."
"Young Master, Young Madam, please forgive us, don't argue with a lunatic."
Village Chief Li wanted to explain, but he couldn't make a sound.
He's not sick!
He was professionally trained, had a strong mentality, and fully accepted that ghosts and monsters existed in the world; this little thing couldn't defeat him.
Village Chief Li cast a pleading look at Lin Xi, "Master, save me!"
Lin Xi looked at the two suspiciously. "Butler Liu, don't be nervous. We're just here for a meal. It's perfectly normal for you to come to Yunnan to visit old friends. It's only natural."
"Huh? Oh." Butler Liu felt inexplicably guilty. He had flown to Yunnan to ask for medicine for the young master, not to visit a friend.
He was extremely envious when Wu Ma's bonus doubled this month.
No way! As a professional butler, I can't lose, I can't give up, keep going!
Therefore, Steward Liu made a special trip from the capital to southern Yunnan to learn from his alumni.
Li Defu returned to his hometown after graduation. One year, while picking mushrooms in the mountains, he was hit by a wild boar and suffered some problems in a certain part of his body.
As the saying goes, "experience is the best teacher," and he understands those aspects, including physiology and psychology.
Just now, Butler Liu and Li Defu finished discussing how to treat this disease and were about to secretly hand over the complete set of secret prescriptions to the young mistress when they were discovered, which almost scared them to death.
Fortunately, he had made thorough preparations and put the secret recipe in a pink bag so that the young master wouldn't see it; otherwise, the bonus would have been lost again.
Butler Liu patted his bald head and sighed deeply.
He slipped the bag to the young mistress while the young master wasn't looking, and his mission was complete.
With the young mistress taking charge, the young master certainly wouldn't refuse. During the "treatment," the two young people would be like dry wood meeting a raging fire, ready to ignite at any moment. If something were to happen during this time, the young master and young lady might have a chance.
His bonus will also be safe, and it might even double like Wu Ma's, hehe.
Ideals are beautiful, but reality is harsh.
Fu Jingyao noticed the unusual bag. "Butler Liu, what's that?"
Butler Liu's heart jumped instantly. "This, this is... a gift I bought for my friend. He has loved pink since he was a child and wears pink clothes every day."
He tightened his grip on Village Chief Li's mouth, "Isn't that right, Brother Defu?"
Village Chief Li pushed his hand away and reluctantly admitted, "That's right."
One of the rules of professional training is that in special circumstances, you should cooperate with your teammates during the performance.
Forget it, let's not hold Xiao Liu's behavior against him this time. We haven't seen each other for years, so let's give him some face and cooperate with his performance.
Butler Liu breathed a sigh of relief, revealing eight teeth. "The old man and the old lady went on a trip a few days ago, and Aunt Wu is currently attending a training course. I've been staying at home with nothing to do, so I've been wandering around and visiting old friends."
Village Chief Li put his arm around his shoulder and said, "We haven't seen each other for ten years. As soon as we met today, Xiao Liu started praising you. The young master is handsome and steady, and the young mistress is beautiful and kind-hearted. They are a perfect match made in heaven."
"Xiao Liu also said that he was very happy and joyful working for the Fu family. The Fu family is like his second parents. Young Master, you are his father... Oh dear!"
Butler Liu pinched him hard, his survival instincts kicking in. "Brother Defu is mentally unstable again. The old man is like my father. Young Master, you are handsome and dashing, not that old, haha."
"Nothing else, we'll be going now, bye-bye."
Lin Xi suddenly spoke up, "Wait, Butler Liu, I have something to ask you, something we mentioned before..."
"Young Madam, let's talk about it another time. I'm in a hurry and will fly back to the capital this afternoon."
Butler Liu dragged Village Chief Li up the stairs and gave Lin Xi a wink.
Young Madam, please contact me by phone.
Lin Xi understood what he meant; with Fu Jingyao present, it was inappropriate to discuss the illness.
She looked at the man beside her, "Let's go too."
Fu Jingyao took her hand again and stood in front of the door waiting for the elevator. "Butler Liu rarely leaves the capital."
Lin Xi said nonchalantly, "Butler Liu has been dedicated to the Fu family for so many years. He's getting old and sentimental, so it's a good thing that he's willing to take a break. We should support Butler Liu and trust his professionalism."
Fu Jingyao smiled and said, "Xixi is right."
Forgive Butler Liu for his rudeness last time; his bonus won't be deducted this month.
The two entered the elevator hand in hand and walked out of the hotel.
It's a sunny day, perfect for strolling around.
Fu Jingyao asked, "Xixi, where do you want to go?"
Lin Xi gave up thinking and said, "You make the arrangements."
Fu Jingyao had already anticipated this. "Come with me, I've made all the arrangements."
After walking for a while, Lin Xi felt a faint, imperceptible gaze on her back.
Someone is following them!
Was it Fu Jingyao being followed? Or was it her?
Lin Xi tugged at the man's wrist, "There are people behind us."
Fu Jingyao frowned slightly. "The bodyguards are nearby. I'll call someone over."
He wanted to spend some time alone with Xixi, so the bodyguard kept watch from the shadows and didn't show himself.
Who would be so bold as to follow him?
Lin Xi lowered her voice, "No need, with the help of the little elves, we can sneak into the alley, catch them, and give them a beating."
