At 3 a.m., the landmines in front of the station

All signs indicate that her first job for the young master was perfect and well-received by the market.

He thought that once the matter was settled, he would at most offer a verbal compliment and that would be the end of it, but who knew... that one phone call today would directly determine his future.

"It seems that all efforts are indeed worthwhile. Hard work always pays off."

Bai Qiao was glad that all those days and nights she spent racking her brains for design were worthwhile.

Working tirelessly without sleep or rest, they meticulously crafted original designs that combined the unique characteristics of everyone in the "Seven Colors" group.

Although she was making clothes for girls, she didn't cut corners. Instead, she made each outfit to the standard she would have made for Su Che himself, giving it her all.

Through this experience, she gained a better understanding of her future direction, rather than feeling that everything was already secured.

"The young master approves of me because I have brought positive benefits to his team in terms of design concepts and aesthetics."

What he needs next is not just maids, housekeeping services, and convenience in meeting his needs.

There should also be another consideration: continuing to provide design services for the team.

Therefore, if I stop pursuing further education and stagnate after graduation, I might gradually be eliminated by outdated aesthetic standards... I must think of a way to pave the way for my future.

White Chocolate is not a mediocre maid with big breasts and no brains. Whether it is sculpting her figure or practicing her professional skills, she has a clear logic and knows that "decorative maids" will be replaced sooner or later in the company.

"No woman's youth lasts forever, and so does her charm; it diminishes with age and physical decline."

By then, if I have no skills to rely on, and if I cannot solidify my relationship with the young master, then everything will have been in vain.

"Ise-nee is the most representative example of learning. Her skills are so numerous that it's unbelievable. Whether it's the appearance and figure in the basic courses, or the execution of tasks in the professional courses, or even winning someone's heart, she can complete the task without leaving a trace."

The only flaw was that she didn't truly adhere to the principle in "The Maid's Guide" of "never developing genuine feelings for any employer."

This book is an exclusive manual created by the former head maid, Mika Kousaka, designed to teach new maids how to disguise their emotions, ensure their safety in any situation, and use contracts to protect themselves.

However, the book also mentions that almost all maids face a choice during their last job—

Faced with a choice between professional ethics and company contracts, one must either give up happiness or helplessly sink into despair.

Bai Qiao felt that Ise-nee had chosen the "company" option, but she herself was different. She would outwardly obey orders, but in reality, she would try to leave something for the young master, thus forcibly choosing the former.

This is the essential difference between maids, and it also determines the path each person ultimately takes.

"Even when working as a maid, I can't forget about self-improvement. I need to get to know the best illustrators or designers I can reach in Tianhai City, and see if I can broaden my thinking and embrace the upcoming changes with a fresh perspective."

Bai Qiao made up her mind, packed her things, and went out to find food in a cheerful mood.

……

At noon, Su Che saw Wu You, who had been waiting for a long time, in Concert Hall No. 1 of the Tianhai City Central Theater, and the graceful young violinist standing in front of the music stand beside her.

"Little fan! You've come!"

"Yes, sorry to keep you waiting. There was a bit of traffic on the way."

Su Che quickened his pace and stepped forward.

"Haha, let me introduce you. This is my very, very best little fan, my personal guitarist, Su Che!"

UU faced the exceptionally beautiful girl and solemnly said,

"And this is our supporting violinist, Asai Suzune, from the Classical Performance Department of TSM Music Academy in Japan. She's a masterclass graduate. Oh right, you're not allowed to keep looking at her."

Okay. Hello, hello.

Su Che immediately turned his gaze to Lingyin, and sure enough, he found the reason why UU was wary...

The girl named Lingyin was tall and slender, wearing a long, fitted dress that perfectly accentuated her figure and elegance.

The upper body features a beige sweater design, with a light gray plaid pattern panel starting from below the chest.

Her hairstyle was straight bangs that reached her eyebrows, with long, wavy curls on one side. It was essentially chestnut-colored hair that had been permed, then tied up below the neck with a black hairband and combed to her ample chest to conceal it.

On the other side, a strand of hair was deliberately left out to adorn her chest, and the length of her bangs above just covered both cheeks, and they were meticulously styled.

She was about 1.7 meters tall, with extremely fair skin, no less so than Yu tide after a shower.

The waist-to-hip ratio is captivating, especially the smooth forearms, with a bracelet on the wrist, giving a dignified yet comfortable sense of understated allure.

Because of her background as a violinist, her overall demeanor combines elegance and gentleness; in short,

The stark visual impact of "young in age, yet resembling a newlywed wife" is unavoidable.

Su Che stared blankly, wondering how someone who was just a "support musician" could rival the goddess in terms of temperament.

Moreover, her looks and features are the kind that grow on you the more you look at her... delicate makeup, expressive eyes.

The moment our eyes met, she nodded shyly and said:

"Hello... I'm Asai."

During the few moments Su Che was lost in thought, Asai was clearly also secretly watching him.

For some reason, after saying that, she subtly added, "Please take care of me, Che-kun. Ah... you can also call me Lingyin directly."

"!"

【hiss.】

This was the first time Su Che had been addressed as "Che-kun" by such a genuine Japanese girl.

You know, he's seen countless beauties, but those with such a refined temperament, the feeling of a new wife, musical knowledge, politeness, and elegance are undoubtedly only the goddess sister and the two in front of him.

"Hiss..."

"Hey! Stop looking!"

At this moment, UU finally realized the danger of the situation. She immediately got up from the piano bench, ran to block the way between him and her, faced Su Che, and waved with her hands on her hips:

"You're completely stunned! Is she really that beautiful?!"

"...No, no, I'm surprised that she speaks Chinese so well, just like a local from Tianhai."

Su Che cleverly found an excuse to divert UU's attention.

UU snorted softly and pouted as she explained, "Because she is a genuine mixed-race person, with one-quarter Chinese blood, one-quarter Italian blood, and half Japanese blood!"

Besides, she used to come here to compete when she was little, and we've collaborated on concerts more than once, so of course we need to be able to communicate!

"I see."

Su Che skipped over the petite UU and stole a glance at Lingyin.

Lingyin lowered her head shyly, her cheeks slightly flushed.

Immediately, as if to divert attention, she picked up the violin beside her and focused her gaze on the sheet music, no longer daring to look in his direction.

【……interesting.】

Su Che's heart was itching with desire, but he knew that now was not the time to explore her.

Right now, the key is to get things sorted out with UU and perfectly resolve the villa handover issue.

"Little fan, how's your piano practice going? The three of us are going to go through all the pieces later, so don't mess me up. Otherwise, about the final payment, hmph..."

UU brandished her little fist, revealing her fangs in a threatening gesture.

"Don't worry, I'll make sure you practice everything you need to. The guitar part is absolutely no problem. You can do whatever you want with a single wrong note."

Su Che was extremely confident, and even left a fishhook for UU, waiting for her to bite.

"Really?! You're really at my disposal?"

She immediately took the bait.

"Of course. I mean what I say. But before that, have you thought about the house issue I mentioned to you? If everything is okay, when can we hand over the keys?"

He steered the conversation back to the important matter and waited for her answer.

UU hissed, then suddenly turned her head as if she had some concerns.

After staring intently at Asai Suzune for about 15 seconds, she reluctantly said:

“After you left last time, Asai came to help, right? She came from Japan and is staying for a while, so it's inconvenient for her to stay in a hotel. So I had her temporarily move into my empty villa. So… if you'd like to move in too… emm…”

……

……

Chapter 225 What if six catwomen sneak into the house…

Su Che understood.

UU meant that someone was currently occupying the house, and that it was this very beautiful girl in front of her.

If I want to move in as soon as possible, then I'll run into her.

UU, on the other hand, didn't want to kick him out, so an awkward situation ensued.

To everyone's surprise, before Su Che could even offer a suggestion, the other party spoke up on their own initiative—

"Yu, it's fine for Che-kun and me to live in the same house for now. After all, your house is so big, with so many rooms, it won't be inconvenient at all. Besides, I can be his roommate..."

Asai Suzune didn't seem to mind sharing a room with Su Che, and was even willing to provide him with conveniences.

How could UU not mind when she heard this?

He directly pointed out a major problem with Su Che: "Let me tell you, he doesn't live alone! He's bringing a whole bunch of... cats in! When there are a lot of people, it might get very noisy! Even you will become an outsider."

"is it?"

Lingyin smiled slightly after hearing this, "People who love cats are all gentle and kind, so I think it's okay. As long as Chejun doesn't mind, I won't move out."

"..."

Su Che naturally wouldn't force her to leave, after all, the house wasn't his.

Although UU is in control and seems very powerful, she can't really drive Lingyin away because she owes Lingyin a lot of favors.

Historically, in professional live concerts, if a pianist is performing alone without any musicians to assist in the ensemble, many elements of original compositions cannot be fully realized.

As a top-tier pianist, UU naturally needs a full ensemble of musicians like Asai to accompany her.

The two have always had a harmonious working relationship, and the only thing that UU is unhappy about is that Asai is too beautiful...

During performances, she always draws the attention of the audience...
