Great, I'm surrounded by villains.

Chapter 142 The Fox is Full of Treasures
The fox is full of treasures.

Duan Mingyuan used to feel that September's tail was warm and soft when he used it as a pillow, but now he discovered that the fox's ears were soft and very sensitive, and would curl up if they were touched lightly.

Coaxing the Fox to Sleep is simple and easy to use, even a newcomer like Duan Mingyuan can easily master it.

The specific operation method is to lie next to the fox demon. The fox demon will hug your body and wrap its tail around your calves. As long as you maintain the action for a few minutes, the fox demon will fall asleep.

After learning these, students can try to go home and coax their fox spirits to sleep.

Sooner or later, Duan Mingyuan felt that he could also write a book called "Fox Demon Research Notes".

The night passed like this.

The next afternoon, the Nectarine slowly entered the Chaozhong train platform.

The journey was relatively uneventful, with only three passengers killed.

Ning Ruyue carried the zither on her back, put the suitcase at her feet, and stretched.

Although she was still a child when she left Chaozhong, after so many years, Chaozhong still remained the same as she remembered.

This is a magical place.

The simple architectural style and the most advanced technology in the universe complement each other. Walking here, it feels like traveling between the past and the future. Outside the train platform, a giant holographic projection is playing a cosmetics advertisement. The model is wearing a gorgeous red and white dress, with her black hair tied up high and an exquisite pendant hanging on her hair crown.

The model in the projection looks down at the train platform, looking cool yet charming, just like the first impression this city gives people.

The holographic projection dialog box considerately marks the brands and numbers of contact lenses, eye shadows, foundations, lipsticks, and nail polishes for visitors.

September tilted his neck, his eyes revealing strong interest.

Modern cosmetics are becoming more and more diverse, but her treasure chest only contains the rouge passed down from her ancestors.

"Mr. Mingyuan."

After hesitating for a while, Jiu Yue asked quietly, "Are the cosmetics in the advertisement expensive?"

For the first time, she became interested in buying something other than food.

"It's not cheap, but you should be able to afford it on your current salary."

“But I haven’t received my salary yet.”

"I can reimburse you."

Duan Mingyuan encouraged Jiu Yue to incur some personal expenses. After all, she was a monster with a monthly salary of tens of thousands of dollars, and her current expenses were really too thrifty.

"Well, then you can go to the mall with me."

Jiu Yue said cautiously. She still felt a little unhappy about what happened on the Peach. How come this little devil who appeared from some corner dared to snatch Mr. Ming Yuan from her?

Is it because she doesn’t wear much makeup that gives them confidence?
The most authoritative evaluation is given in ancient books - there is no woman in the world more beautiful than the nine-tailed fox. Jiu Yue suggests that all potential little fairies should read more books and give up those unrealistic fantasies as soon as possible.

The three of them didn't stay on the platform for long before a tall woman walked towards them.

Jiu Yue took the opportunity to hug Duan Mingyuan's arm. She felt that the woman looked familiar. She looked up and finally confirmed her identity - the model in the holographic projection advertisement appeared, but she did not have a complicated hairstyle and only had light makeup on her face. She could barely see a hint of the advertisement.

She was not wearing fancy clothes, but a standard short skirt in black and white, and her long legs were wrapped in white stockings.

"Your Highness, welcome home."

The woman folded her hands in front of her and spoke gently and appropriately.

"……Who are you?"

Ning Ruyue frowned and asked an impolite question.

"I am Caidie, your highness's former personal maid."

"Colorful butterfly!?"

Ning Ruyue obviously remembered this name. She looked the woman in front of her up and down, but she didn't match the image in her memory.

The colorful butterfly in her memory was only a few years older than her and had been by her side since she could remember.

Caidie was a maid in the court. She always wore plain long skirts. She seemed to be malnourished and had a thin and small figure. She was completely different from the tall beauty now. "What are you wearing?"

This black and white uniform is not a common attire in the court.

"This is a maid outfit custom-made by HIVE. It is currently a special costume for the court and is very popular among young people. A lot of changes have taken place in the court during the years Your Highness has been away. If Your Highness doesn't like it, I will switch back to the traditional style after I return."

As she spoke, Caidie pushed her black-framed glasses with her right hand, which was wearing a white nylon glove.

The tone of speech also changed, becoming formal and somewhat rigid, and the relationship seemed much more distant.

Ning Ruyue thought that perhaps this was the thick barrier mentioned in the book.

"Cai Die, are you nearsighted?"

she asked casually.

"No, this is a set for the 'Thousand Faces Maid' outfit. Your Highness can just treat it as jewelry. If you are not used to it, I will change it back to the 'Bluebird in the Forest' style when I return. Switching between tradition and fashion is the basic skill of every maid."

"What is this?"

Ning Ruyue was completely confused.

At least "Thousand Faces Maid" can be heard as the name of a maid's uniform, but "Bluebird in the Forest" is completely meaningless.

"I know, it's fashion!"

Jiu Yue saw through the truth and said, "She is still your personal maid, but now you can customize her appearance. The names of the appearances she just mentioned are her names."

"Who asked you to do this?"

"It's the Third Prince. The aesthetic styles of the people outside the Heaven are different. The servants in the court will now switch their attire and personality depending on who they are entertaining."

"Huh? Personalities can be switched?"

What exactly did the third prince do?
Unlike the ambitious and aggressive second prince, in Ning Ruyue's memory, the third brother had been fond of romance since childhood. He learned how to tease maids at a very young age, and maids often came to her to complain.

This is a man who enjoys pleasure through and through.

"Well, my current character setting is a rigid and strict head maid. Recently, many aliens have visited the court."

As Caidie spoke, she took Ning Ruyue's suitcase and said, "I have prepared rooms for you all, please follow me."

The destination was the most imposing and majestic palace. The first thing Duan Mingyuan saw after getting off the Peach was the magnificent building. It was said that the First King lived there, and the entire court was built based on it.

"I guess this is Teacher Jiu Yue?"

After taking a few steps, Caidie suddenly asked.

Since they met, Jiu Yue had observed that although this "rigid and strict" head maid had little interest in Mr. Ming Yuan, she could not take her lightly.

From the beginning, Caidie had been secretly looking at her with a very strange look.

"Yes."

"You really are a fox demon. This is the first time I've seen a live fox demon."

Caidie stared at Jiuyue's face and asked, "Excuse me, do you have any plans this afternoon?"

"Not yet, what's wrong?"

"You are so beautiful. This may be a little presumptuous, but I would like to invite you to participate in the new HIVE advertising shoot."

"Advertising shoot?"

Jiu Yue once again looked up at the giant holographic projection outside the train platform, "Is that an advertisement?"

"Yes, after the new advertisement is shot, your image will be shown on the train platform for 31 days. Then every visitor to Chaozhong will be able to see your style at the first sight."

She paused and said, "I just think that beauty like yours should be appreciated by more people."
