Chapter 586 The Personal Maid Needs to Take Care of the Boss's Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon
"Let's see."
As soon as Li Luochen finished speaking, Xi Si unceremoniously sat on his lap, her back naturally leaning against his chest, snuggling comfortably.
She slowly took her phone out of her pocket, swiped her finger across the screen twice as if looking for something, but her eyes kept glancing at Zhouzhu's reaction out of the corner of her eye.
Zhouzhu stood to the side, still holding Li Luochen's backpack, watching as Xisi nestled into Li Luochen's arms so openly, her fingers unconsciously tightening around the backpack straps.
Before her feelings of envy could even take hold, she mentally slapped herself.
No, no, I'm the second lord of the Battle Fortress, how could I envy something like this!
So Zhouzhu raised her head again, chin held high, looking like she didn't care.
But those eyes still couldn't help glancing towards the sofa.
My foolish little sister, what exactly can you possibly produce?
Xi Si opened the photo album, clicked on a video, and held the phone up to Li Luochen.
The screen lit up, showing the scene in the dead of night. Zhou Zhu was lying on Li Luochen's bed, hugging his pillow, burying her face in it and rubbing against it, mumbling incoherently, "Husband~ When are you coming back~ I miss you so much..."
"Luo Chen~♡♡♡"
The Zhouzhu in the video is completely different from her usual arrogant self, who always talks about "fighting the second lord of the fortress".
The living room was silent for a full three seconds.
Zhouzhu's face went from pink to bright red, then to a deep flush. She threw her backpack onto the sofa and pounced on Xisi, yelling, "Third Sister, when did you take this?! Delete it! Delete it now!"
Li Luochen held Xi Si's waist with one arm to prevent her from being tackled, and steadily took the phone with the other hand, the corner of his mouth curving into a deeper smile: "Don't delete it, play it again."
I can only say that Tsundere is worthy of being called Tsundere.
Li Luochen watched the scene on his phone screen play on repeat, his smile growing wider and wider.
He truly hadn't expected that Zhouzhu would miss him to this extent while he was away.
She tossed and turned in bed late at night, clutching his pillow, murmuring "I miss you so much." Her soft, gentle tone was completely different from how she now seemed to want to disappear into the ground.
But as soon as he returned, she reverted to her proud and haughty self, as if the person in the video wasn't her at all.
Zhouzhu rushed to Li Luochen and reached out to snatch the phone from his hand, but Li Luochen simply raised his arm, and she couldn't reach it.
She stamped her feet in panic, her face flushed red like a lobster soldier, her voice trembling: "No, don't release it! I wasn't like this when you weren't here! That was something Third Sister created with AI! Yes, it was created!"
Xi Si nestled in Li Luochen's arms, adding with a smile, "Second sister, I don't have that skill."
"Do you want to delete the video?"
Li Luochen shook his phone; the image on the screen was still playing on a loop.
Zhouzhu's eyes followed the phone around twice, her lips pressed tightly together, and finally she managed to squeeze out a single word through her teeth: "Mm."
Li Luochen pretended to ponder for a moment, tapped his chin lightly twice with his fingers, then looked up at her: "How about this, if you serve me well today, I'll consider deleting the video, okay?"
Zhouzhu suddenly raised her head, wanting to say "Don't even think about it," but when she caught a glimpse of herself on the screen out of the corner of her eye, those three words got stuck in her throat.
"I'll serve you then!" she said stubbornly, trying to maintain her last bit of defiance.
......
As it turns out, this pampered young lady is still lacking in the ability to take care of others.
Zhouzhu first brought over a cup of tea, but not only did half of the tea spill onto the tray, it was also so hot that Li Luochen frowned.
She said she would massage Li Luochen's shoulders, but her fingers kneaded for a long time with such light pressure that it felt like she was just tickling him, and the position she was kneading was all crooked and awkward.
The snacks that were served were edible enough, but their appearance was really not flattering. According to Zhouzhu, she made them herself.
But no matter how you look at it, it looks like a ready-made dessert from the dojo's kitchen that she has simply rearranged.
After struggling for more than half an hour, Li Luochen finally couldn't help but turn over and look at the proud maid with a flushed face and a layer of fine sweat on her forehead. He sighed helplessly, "You'd better stop serving me. If you keep serving me, I'm afraid I'll shorten my lifespan."
At that moment, Huoyan rushed over following the sound and stood at the living room door, watching this scene unfold.
She was wearing a smart white shirt and a pencil skirt, and had a document she had just finished processing tucked between her fingers, so she had obviously come from the study.
"Oh, Joo-ju, it seems you know nothing."
Huoyan sighed helplessly.
Zhouzhu bit her lip, wanting to refute but finding herself speechless.
Although Firebird is from Team Magma, after spending so much time in the gym, her efficiency in doing things is far superior to hers.
Both are personal maids, but while others are adept at serving tea and water, organizing documents, and arranging schedules, she can't even give a proper massage...
"As a personal maid, there's something you haven't learned yet."
Huo Yan looked at Zhou Zhu with a disappointed expression, like a teacher criticizing a talented but lazy student.
Zhouzhu retorted, "What's the most important thing? Aren't I already learning how to serve tea and water, tidy up the room, and give massages and shoulder rubs?"
She spoke with obvious lack of confidence, after all, her previous performance had not been very convincing.
Huo Yan didn't answer directly, but turned to look at Li Luochen, who was lying on the sofa watching the show.
Then she put down the documents in her hand, walked slowly to the sofa, leaned down, and whispered something in Li Luochen's ear. Her voice was so low that no one else could hear what she said.
Li Luochen raised an eyebrow, his smile deepening, and after Xi Si stood up, he put his arm around her waist.
Huo Yan looked at Zhou Zhu with a calm expression: "The most important thing for a personal maid is to make her master happy."
"Serving tea and water is just the basics, and shoulder massage is just the surface. The real key is that you need to know what he's thinking and what he needs, and you can do it without him saying it."
"This is the true meaning of the word 'close to the body'."
Zhouzhu thought Huoyan made sense, but what did Li Luochen need right now?
She stood beside the sofa, looking at Li Luochen sitting lazily on it, her mind racing, but she still couldn't grasp the answer.
"I'll show you how."
Fire Goose said, "Our master is the gym leader, and there are many friends in the gym. As maids, we need to take care of the pseudo-legendary Pokémon that lead the gym for our master."
Day Pearl did know which Pokémon was the pseudo-legendary leader of the dojo, and then her face flushed slightly...
