Could it be that I've made too many mistakes, and Sister Delia is taking the blame for me to avoid punishment?
Chapter 108 Are you under too much work pressure?
It's rare for servants to be treated like less than human beings on Glory Island, but no matter what, it's still a relationship where one person is responsible for paying wages and the other for doing the work; the attribute of personal dependence is there for all to see.
If the master has a bad temper, it's inevitable that the servants will suffer a bit, which is similar to a worker encountering a terrible boss.
I know that Sister Delia and Xiao Chunan went through hardships together before, but their subsequent contact shouldn't have been that intimate. It doesn't make sense that they suddenly developed to this extent.
Although Chun also felt that Xiao Chu Nan didn't seem like that kind of person, he was still a teenager, and she thought back to the various versions of master-servant stories that the older girls in her dormitory had talked about before.
The more she thought about it, the more likely it seemed. After all, back in the main family, even minor mistakes would be scolded and reprimanded by the housekeeper. But now, with Miss Heinrich, she was making one mistake after another without any punishment. How could that be?
It's just that someone else is bearing the burden for her...
"Wouldn't that mean I'd drag Sister Delia down with me?"
The silver-haired girl looked lost and forlorn; her disheveled hair mirrored her chaotic state of mind.
Since Sister Delia kept this from me, she must not want me to know. She doesn't want to burden me, nor does she want me to see her unpleasant side.
Since it was my own mistake, I can't let someone else take the blame and be punished for me!
"Since I can't sleep anyway, I might as well get up a little earlier and mop the floor to lighten Delia's workload!"
After making up her mind, the girl quietly climbed down from the upper bunk, moving very gently, afraid that the shaking of the bed would wake up the person on the lower bunk.
The floor was actually quite clean, because Chu Yinan had cleaned the house yesterday riding on the doll maid, but daily cleaning was necessary.
This rule also applies to the main house of the family. After changing clothes, Chun fetches water and begins mopping the floor.
Not long after Chun finished cleaning the floors in the entryway, hallway, and near the bathroom, she heard a noise coming from the direction of the kitchen.
Is it a mouse?
No, that shouldn't be the case. There are some kind of sound wave devices developed with AI on the artificial island that can repel insects, rats, cockroaches, and the like, so it's unlikely that there would be rats there.
It's even less likely that a thief will break in. This place is home to Miss Heinrich, whom even the AI favors. The AI won't just stand by and do nothing.
"Hmm? It looks like Xiao Chunan? Why is he up so late at night looking for something to eat? He even grabbed some coffee. Is he having trouble sleeping too?"
Chun had made up her mind to go and confess her sins, but then she hesitated. It wasn't that she didn't want to go, but that she didn't know how to bring it up.
After much deliberation, she realized that now was the best opportunity, and if she missed it, she might never find such a rare chance again.
Moreover, if she hesitates for too long, Sister Delia might fall victim to the young master's cruelty again!
Because her mind was filled with these strange and wonderful thoughts, Chun forgot to put down the mop in her hand and walked lightly with her white silk-clad feet to the door of the second-floor balcony.
"Um...Young Master, Chu Nan, why aren't you asleep yet so late?" As soon as she said it, she felt a surge of frustration. This was not what she wanted to say!
What they said is different from what I thought!
Chu Yinan was almost startled, especially since it was the middle of the night and he was still lost in thought about how to successfully go on a date.
"Actually, I woke up early. I must have slept too much during the day yesterday, so I got up early now. But Chun, why are you up so early too? Delia isn't even up yet, is she?"
"I couldn't sleep either, so I got up to mop the floor..." the girl stammered, holding the mop helplessly, the mop handle sinking deep into her chest cleavage.
“You don’t need to mop the floor for a while, consider it a way to relieve your stress. Let the doll maids do these chores. We also need to collect data repeatedly. By the way, Jun, could you put the mop a little further away? I’m a little worried.”
Nobody likes having a mop smeared on their face in the middle of the night. It ruins the peaceful mood of the early hours, and it would be bad if it made a noise and woke up the family.
"Okay, I'll put it away now." The girl nodded hesitantly, feeling a great lack of trust in her abilities.
This also suggests that Xiao Chunan actually had opinions about her mistakes all along. But there was no punishment, not even a word of reprimand or lesson, which doesn't make sense no matter how you look at it!
As expected, Sister Delia took all the blame for me...
You have to take responsibility for your own affairs!
"Um... Young Master, I have something I'd like to say to you." Because it was a very serious matter, Chun's tone was more earnest and respectful than usual.
Chu Yinan was drinking his coffee when he almost choked on her tone. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "What is it? And you don't need to use such a formal tone. It's too distant. You've bullied me so many times before, and I've never held it against you, have I?"
These words were spoken in a joking tone. Although Chu Yinan would occasionally pounce on Chun and use his ample breasts to press down on him, strictly speaking, he didn't lose out in this round; in fact, he even made a small profit.
And there's a rather subtle situation: Chu Yinan had secretly observed her work, and as long as he didn't get too close, nothing went wrong. So Chu Yinan also attributed her occasional falls to himself.
It's my fault, it's my fault for having such irresistible good looks and charm!
But Chun heard these words and interpreted them in a completely different way.
It was definitely a hint directed at her!
Although this method of punishment is not good in any way, and even the loss is too great for a girl!
But if the object is Xiao Chunan, it doesn't seem like it's unacceptable.
Besides, this is just taking back the punishment that should have been inflicted on me from Sister Delia. She has already endured so much for me!
"Little Chunan, I... I know everything about what happened between Sister Dilia and you!"
Chu Yinan's heart skipped a beat: "Keep your voice down, what are you talking about?"
"It was yesterday afternoon, you and Sister Delia were in the room, you know..."
The girl with short silver hair didn't know how to describe it, so she blushed and made gestures.
Her soft little hands made a gesture as if she were holding something, and then she stuck out her tongue a little shyly.
"Marisa and I both saw it..."
What!
Marissa saw it all!
"So what did you come all this way to tell me?" Chu Yinan was a little unsettled. Could it be that this petite, busty, silver-haired maid was trying to blackmail him?
"What Sister Delia can do, I can do too. I may not have much experience, but I'll definitely be able to do it if I try a few more times. I won't make any mistakes this time!"
Beneath the girl's resolute gaze was a blushing face, so red it looked like it could bleed. If she hadn't been holding back, she probably wouldn't have been able to meet Chu Yinan's eyes now.
"Are you under too much work pressure lately? Are you still sleepy?"
Chapter 109, let me first give you a tally mark.
Chun and Marisa are about the same height. Chu Yinan has never measured them or even touched them, but he estimates they are around 1.6 meters tall.
Or rather, he should be roughly 1.6 meters tall.
Their petite stature does not equate to slenderness and frailty; on the contrary, they are all quite voluptuous, with proudly full and firm breasts, each possessing its own unique characteristics.
Besides recognizing people by their buttocks, Chu Yinan felt that the biggest difference between Marissa and Chun might be their legs.
Marissa's stockinged feet looked slightly more slender, while the silver-haired maid gave him a perfectly proportioned, fleshy look.
Her strange remarks really made Chu Yinan's mind wander.
Fortunately, the iced coffee provided a cooling effect on his brain, making it very cool and clear now. Besides, it wasn't time for morning massage yet.
"Although it's embarrassing to admit, and I often make mistakes at work, I'm perfectly capable of doing what Sister Delia did for Xiao Chunan. In fact, I think I'm more suitable!"
The maid didn't want to talk about the details of Delia's suffering for her anymore, because she was worried that if she did, she might feel even more guilty, and her already feverish mind would become even more confused, making her incoherent.
But Chu Yinan still failed to grasp the unspoken meaning she had overlooked.
What's going on?
Is Chun trying to help him out after discovering that Delia had gone to great lengths to persuade him?
It seems like he's just here to compete with Delia for her favor, but I've never seen this girl show him any interest before.
Aside from the occasional mistake I might make at work in front of him, we don't actually have much contact in private.
Sometimes we might bump into each other in the house and exchange a few words, but that's nothing. If we're talking about any kind of close contact, the only time we had any intimate contact was when we took a shower together.
Could it be that the Heinrich family asked him to do this?
Chu Yinan recalled the ideological education Heinrich had given him a few days ago: if you encounter someone trying to seduce you with their beauty—just dine and dash!
We need to figure out what their intentions are, that they're forcing Chun to do this kind of thing.
He sipped his coffee and imitated his female father's calm demeanor and commanding manner when he asked him to sit down.
"Sit down first. Who told you to do this?" Chu Yinan felt like he was now acting like a CEO.
Seeing Chu Yinan's suddenly serious expression, Chun obeyed his instructions and sat down beside him.
Although his serious, stern face was both cute and funny, it at least showed that he was seriously considering her now, right?
"No, no one forced me to do this, it was my own will!" The silver-haired maid clutched her dress, her two white-stockinged feet nervously turned inward and pressed together, her voice growing softer and softer: "Besides, I've made my share of mistakes, I can't be so forgetful, I need to be punished, I can't let Sister Delia have it all to herself... I mean, take the blame for me."
Chu Yinan remained silent; reality is always more complex than theory.
Which of the situations Heinrich described does this fall under? It doesn't seem like a treacherous nobleman trying to buy him with his beauty, so we can't go too far. Let's just assume it's like Delia's case for now.
"Let me confirm one more time, is it really not the Lefèvre family that asked you to do this? You don't need to worry about retaliation or anything, I have very strong backing. No matter how bad-tempered Heinrich is, she has to listen to me to some extent."
Of course, she might not listen to the remaining seven parts...
Chun shook her head vigorously, her smooth silver hair dancing beautifully.
"It was my own decision, and it's my own problem. I can't let Sister Delia worry about me anymore."
But the problem is, now I'm the one worrying about Delia's problems!
Chu Yinan felt like he understood what she meant, but it also seemed like there was something more important that he hadn't understood.
Perhaps it would be better to ask Heinrich for his opinion afterward.
According to the woman's father, Chun's confession to him at this moment required immense courage and should be treated with great care.
"I'm not stalling for time to brush you off! I understand what you mean. After all, this is very important to you as well. I'll confirm it with Heinrich later."
"Okay. I think mistakes must be punished, otherwise I won't learn my lesson and will continue to make the same mistakes. So no matter what kind of punishment I'm given, I will behave well...!"
"Alright, alright." Chu Yinan felt that this matter was over. He thought of the blind date he had just contacted and said, "Chun, do you know anything about the nobles of Glory Island?"
Chun really wanted to answer with a confident tone to show her competence, but she was afraid of embarrassing herself, so she answered conservatively:
"I know some of them, because Glory Island is quite large. I've heard that Glory Island has been merged several times, so I may not know all the nobles on the island."
"Do you know which noble family the name Chanel belongs to?" Chu Yinan wanted to gather some information beforehand.
