Cinderella Innocent and Boss Charming - Chapter 478
Chapter 478 Did it hurt?
Lu Xiaoxian’s life as a maid in the Lan family was officially on track. She just came, do some rough work, can not enter the kitchen, can not go upstairs, stay outside more hours, weeding and cutting leaves and watering, moving and lifting, cleaning the road, and even to the forest spraying insecticidal powder, do everything.
Lai Ao Island is subtropical, than the Bay of ultraviolet rays are stronger, not two days of work, Lu Xiaoxian on the tan, but also looks strong. Blue Kelley a few days did not see her startled, said, “Look what you have become, or do not do.”
Lu Xiaoxian smiled and said, “Working to earn money, how can it be easy, it’s fine, I’ve done this job before, it’s not difficult.”
Lan Kai Li looked at her for half a second and said, “Do you favor me or my big brother? If you want to follow me, one word, I will take you away now. If you fancy my big brother …”
“Your big brother.” Lu Xiaoxian was straightforward, she also really had no choice, not being able to go upstairs, there was no chance of getting in touch with Lan Kaize, not being able to be in front of him, there were some things she had no way to find out.
“Now you’re admitting it,” Blue Keli said with a look of having known it for a long time, “I knew you were coming for my big brother, but you’re kind of my friend, so tell me, how do you want me to help you?”
Lu Xiaoxian wasn’t polite either, “Tell Uncle Hua to let me work in the house, your big brother stays in his own room and doesn’t come out as soon as he enters the house every day, and I can’t see him.”
“Honestly, Lu Xiaoxian, if I regard you as a friend, I should advise you to give up this idea, my big brother’s man is a stinky and hard stone in a latrine pit, you won’t get anything out of it, instead, you’ll cause a stench, so it’s better to forget about it!”
“No, I want to try. You’ll help me this once, and I won’t even ask you for anything else.”
Lan Kaili hesitated for a moment and said, “Alright, but I have a condition, if things fall apart, you must not say that I’m an accomplice, or else my big brother will whip me.”
“Don’t worry, this is all my personal behavior, and I will never involve you in anything that goes wrong.”
Hearing Lu Xiaoxian say this, Lan Kaili smiled, “We’re always friends, in the future, if there’s anything you want me to help you with, just open your mouth, as long as I can help you, I’ll definitely help you, don’t ever be polite to me.”
Lu Xiaoxian was a bit touched and said seriously, “Thank you, Lan Kaili, I’m glad to have you as a friend.”
With the help of Keli Lan, Lu Xiaoxian was transferred to the house to do her work, and her light blue uniform was replaced with a light red one, which meant she was free to go up and down the stairs.
She knew that there was a big gym on the second floor, where Lan Kai Ze stayed every day when he came back from work, and several times she stood downstairs and saw the man’s figure through the second-floor window, he was always sweating on the treadmill wearing a black or white stretch undershirt. His thick eyebrows were slightly furrowed and his face looked a little cold.
Lu Xiaoxian had this expression every time she saw him, just as she had heard at Lan Kaida’s wedding, the Lan family’s youngest master had a poker face that remained unchanged for a thousand years.
I didn’t expect that the first time she went upstairs, she caused a small mess. Probably thinking about seeing Lan Kai Ze some excitement, Lu Xiaoxian on the stairs when the Hou walked a little sharply, the top down a person she did not pay too much attention, the result is not too light or not too heavy bumped into the other side of the handbag to knock off, she panicked to pick up, just said, “Sorry!”
A slap was slapped on her face, and a sharp voice rang out, “Don’t you have eyes? Do you know that you bumped into me?”
Lu Xiaoxian covered her face and slowly raised her head, recognizing her as Lan Qin’er, the eldest miss of the Lan family.
“I’m sorry, Missy.” Lu Xiaoxian apologized again.
Lan Qin’er sized her up and frowned, “Who are you? How come I haven’t seen you before?”
Lu Xiaoxian lowered her eyebrows and said, “I’m new here, my name is Lu Xiaoxian.”
“No wonder you don’t know the rules,” Lan Qin’er grunted condescendingly, “Newcomers have to be put on their toes, don’t think that our Blue Family is a good place to stay, it’s no joke to get smacked for making a mistake.”
“I know.” Lu Xiaoxian said softly, “Thank you, Missy, for reminding me.”
Lan Qin’er glanced at her and took her purse and left. Lu Xiaoxian touched her hot face and couldn’t help but shake her head, this place is really different from the country, light scolding and heavy beating are commonplace.
As soon as he looked up, Kaiser Blue was actually standing at the stairway, and he didn’t know how long he had been looking there?
Lu Xiaoxian was beaten, naturally the mood is a little low, see his moment to create the illusion, feel very aggrieved, bright eyes instantly mist, like purple and black grapes immersed in water, as long as the slightest blink, the water will flow down, let a person see the pity.
Kaiser Blue looked down at her, and after a long time, he asked, “Did it hurt?”
The man’s voice was still cold, which instantly brought Lu Xiaoxian back to her senses, and she busied herself by raising her hand to wipe her eyes, saying, “I’m fine.”
“Changing your uniform so quickly proves you’re quite capable!”
Lu Xiaoxian heard the sarcasm in the man’s tone and slightly reddened, she did open the back door in this matter.
Seeing that she didn’t say anything, Lan Kaiser asked again, “What are you doing up here?”
She came up, of course, to see him, but this can’t be said explicitly, Lu Xiaoxian bit her lip, “I came up to familiarize myself with the environment, to recognize the door, up here is where the master and lady young masters and young ladies live, I’m afraid of making a mistake.”
Lan Kaiser nodded, “You still know how to save for a rainy day, fine, come up if you want to watch.”
Lu Xiaoxian’s heart rejoiced, and her eyebrows took on a smile, “Thank you, Young Master.” Two or three steps up the ladder steps to stand in front of him.
The man’s face was unreadable, but he said, “Walking like that, you’ll probably get slapped later.”
It turned out that he saw everything, saw Lan Qin’er overbearing, also saw her being bullied, but he just quietly watched and did not have any reaction, Lu Xiaoxian was a little heartbroken, if it was Gu Nianbin, it was her Nianbin, it would not be so indifferent.
Seeing her standing in a daze with her eyes downcast, Lan Kai Ze asked, “Don’t you want to familiarize yourself with the environment? Don’t go yet.”
Lu Xiaoxian did not look up, hard to hold on to that sourness in the bottom of his heart, slowly turned around and walked along the corridor, the long corridor is deep, as if you can’t see the end, touching only curved arches, square or round stone pillars, on both sides of the oil paintings and wall sconces, and on the top is the lotus crystal chandelier extends all the way to the end, a very long way away to light up a light, she breathed out a deep sigh of relief, the long march has just begun, you can’t be so weak, after all, he is now Lan Kaize, not Gu Nianbin. After all, he is now Lan Kaize, not Gu Nianbin.
“Wait,” the man’s voice came from behind him.
Lu Xiaoxian’s footsteps stalled, turned around, the man strides towards her, his shadow was drawn by the light, like a silent giant approaching her, soon she was enveloped in the shadows, in the darkness, the man’s eyes were as bright as a bit of lacquer, his voice was not as cold as before, “Are you just going to walk around like this? These rooms don’t have names on the doors, how are you going to recognize them?”
Yeah, just walking around like this, how would one know who’s in whose room? She said that familiarizing herself with the environment was just an excuse, but when Lan Kai Ze asked, she was speechless. If she really wanted to familiarize herself with the environment, she should have found someone to bring her along.
Luckily, Lan Kaiser didn’t ask too many questions and said, “Forget it, I’ll show you the way.”
Lu Xiaoxian was so joyful that she wanted to jump up, but she didn’t dare, and remained with a lowered brow, saying softly, “Thank you, Young Master!”
She didn’t dare to stand shoulder to shoulder with him, slightly lagging behind by half a body position, so that, instead, she could survey him with impunity, and couldn’t get enough of him, firm musculature, lean waist, long and slender legs, and perfect body proportions.
Lu Xiaoxian in her heart to compare carefully, probably the relationship of Lan Kaize love fitness, he than Gu Nianbin appears more sturdy, arm muscles tangled thick, if by this pair of arms to hold, must be very secure it. Lu Xiaoxian thought of this, her face abruptly red.
Before she could come back to her senses, she suddenly bumped into something, hard and elastic, hurting her nose, lifting her head to see that she had bumped into a man’s back, Lu Xiaoxian covered her nose and bared her teeth, but the man’s face was expressionless, “Did you hear what I said?”
Lu Xiaoxian blushed, she was so focused on looking at the man that she didn’t even pay attention to listening.
The man looked at her suspiciously, “Are you here to familiarize yourself with your surroundings, after all?”
“Yes, I am,” Lu Xiaoxian looked at the four corridors and bit her lip, “This place is like a labyrinth, I was so focused on looking that I didn’t, didn’t pay attention to your words.”
Shaking his head at her inattentiveness and wondering at Self’s good patience, Lan Kai Ze pointed to the room on his right and said, “This is my third uncle’s room, and the several rooms attached here are used by him and his third aunt.”
Lu Xiaoxian took a very serious look at the light purple door with wisps carved with flowers and branches entwined with vines, a very local feature.
“That’s Lan Qin’er’s room, the one that hit you just now, she’s the only girl in the family, everyone spoils her, so she’s spoiled, you’d better avoid her a little bit usually.”
Lu Xiaoxian heard concern in the last sentence and couldn’t help but snicker down when she heard the man say, “You’re not concentrating again.”
“No,” Lu Xiaoxian hurriedly looked up, “You say it, I’m listening.”
Instead, the man slowed down and looked at her searchingly, “What are you smiling about?”
Lu Xiaoxian said, “I’m not laughing!”
“You’re obviously smiling.”
“I,” Lu Xiaoxian couldn’t suppress the happy energy in her heart and simply grinned at him with a silly smile, “You’re so nice.”
The man froze for a moment, wondering how she could somehow say such a thing, but he felt even more foolish as he asked, “What’s so great about me?”
“You reminded me to avoid Missy.”
Lan Kaiser hummed and seemed to be smiling, but the smile was so faint that Lu Xiaoxian couldn’t be sure.
“Let’s go,” said Kaiser Blue, “Up ahead is Keli Blue’s room, and past that is where my second aunt lives …”
Zeng Hong tiptoed back into the hall and said to Lan Xiu Ming, “The sun is really beating out of the west today, and the young master is actually familiarizing himself with the new maid, don’t you think it’s strange?”
Lan Xiuming was always unimpressed by his wife’s one-two punch, “You’re looking at it wrong, aren’t you, Kaiser should be at the gym at this time of day.”
“Really, I saw it with my own eyes through the cat’s eye, and he pointed to our house and said, this is my third uncle’s room, and that’s Lan Qin’er’s room, and all the way through he was introducing it to the maid!”
Lan Xiuming raised his eyebrows, “Really?” He put down the newspaper and walked over to the door to look, but there was no sign of Lan Kaize outside the door for a long time. He turned back to his wife, “You must have misread it, where is there anyone outside the door?”
Zeng Hong gave him a blank look without any good humor, “If you don’t believe it, forget it!”
