Chapter 77 Little Maid Lin Jianxia (Fifth Update, Seeking First Subscription)
After quite some time, until the sky outside the window had darkened further, Jiang Yubai gently scratched the girl's slender waist: "Is that enough?"
Lin Tingwan trembled slightly, and then reluctantly released her arms from his neck.
"Let's go eat." Jiang Yubai suppressed the regret in his heart.
Lin Tingwan nodded, but then seemed to remember something, and wrote something in her notebook and handed it over.
"My sister is feeling a bit better now."
"Of course she's in a better mood. We just pinky swore an oath to never hang ourselves again."
Jiang Yubai was speaking casually when he suddenly realized something: "Wait, how did you know?"
What's going on? Could it be that while he was chatting with Jianjian's Xia, Tingting's Wan was listening at the door?
Ke Lin Tingwan thought for a moment and gave an answer he hadn't expected at all: "I felt it."
After reading it twice more, Jiang Yubai was finally certain that he hadn't misread it.
What does it mean to feel something?
Do twins have telepathy?
Looking at Lin Tingwan's serious little face, Jiang Yubai couldn't help but start to doubt his own existence.
Will my sister still be angry?
"Well..
99
Dear Lin Tingwan, could you please not ask the Warrior of Light such dark questions?
He thought for a moment and then said, "I don't know if she'll be angry or not, but I'll try my best not to make her angry, is that okay?"
The more you say, the more mistakes you make; the less you say, the fewer mistakes you make; and if you don't say anything... oh wait, you can't completely stay silent either.
Anyway, as long as I don't mention words like "maid" or "massage" in front of Lin Jianxia in the future, that's fine, right?
Now she has no reason to be angry anymore, right?
Although she didn't know where Jiang Yubai's smug expression came from, Lin Tingwan nodded as if she understood.
After dinner, in the study.
"Hey, it's good to pay salaries today."
Jiang Yubai handed over an envelope.
Looking at the envelope in front of her, Lin Jianxia didn't move. Instead, she hesitated and said, "Isn't it... not even a month yet?"
"Well, it's almost National Day," Jiang Yubai explained casually. "It'll be troublesome to withdraw money then. Anyway, it'll be paid on this day from now on, so just remember it."
Lin Jianxia gave a soft "oh" and took the envelope, feeling that the thickness seemed a bit off.
She looked down and counted, then couldn't help but ask, "Fifteen thousand?"
"Yes, a salary of 1200 and a food allowance of 300," Jiang Yubai said frankly. "Don't be so quick to refuse; this is indeed what we should give you."
He paused, looked at Lin Jianxia seriously, and continued to explain, "You know how much it costs to hire a live-in housekeeper these days, just for cleaning and cooking three meals a day. Besides, your cooking skills are better than many housekeepers outside."
"We agreed on meals included, so we can't just disregard that just because we eat at school."
"The previous 500 was indeed a bit too much, but 300 is just right."
Jiang Yubai explained in great detail, and his tone was very natural.
Lin Jianxia pursed her lips and sighed inwardly.
I won't get angry about this.
What she cared about more now was the title "Auntie" that Jiang Yubai had casually mentioned earlier.
It sounds...much worse than "maid".
She suppressed the chaotic thoughts in her mind, took out a few bills from the envelope and handed them over, saying earnestly, "This is the rent for Wanwan and me this month."
"It's not time yet, you..." Jiang Yu started to say, then nodded, "Okay, how about I just deduct it from your salary from now on?"
"No need," Lin Jianxia said softly, "It's fine as it is."
She hesitated for a moment, then said softly, "I... treated myself to a chicken leg today."
"You really should eat more."
Jiang Yubai casually praised him and took out a vocabulary list from his bag: "Let's start the spot check."
Lin Jianxia glanced at him and suddenly said, "By the way, what about you saying you'd memorize sixty words... does that still stand?"
Jiang Yubai's expression stiffened: "...Can I take it back?"
'
'
"Alright, alright, sixty it is."
Jiang Yubai's lips twitched.
"You need to catch up in your math and physics, or we'll miss out on scholarships because of your low scores."

...I won't hold anyone back.
For the next period of time, Jiang Yubai lived a regular and peaceful life.
Every morning, I get up, have breakfast, and then go to school with Lin Jianxia. After school, I bring some snacks for Lin Tingwan on the way home and keep her company.
In the evenings, he and Lin Jianxia would review each other's papers in the study.
They were living a rather pleasant life.
Lin Tingwan seems to be getting better and better. I don't know if it's because the daily hugs are having an effect, or if it's related to the magazines and comics he brought with him.
Jiang Yubai had dug those magazines and comics out of his old house. He had even checked them carefully to make sure there was nothing inappropriate for children.
Lin Jianxia's situation... is somewhat delicate.
Even though we had already pinky sworn and promised not to change our minds for a hundred years, and I clearly told her that I wasn't angry.
But after that day, her emotions seemed to return to their previous volatile state.
Although it wasn't as serious as before, she would still occasionally stare at him absentmindedly during class, and when Jiang Yubai turned away, she would...
He quickly looked away.
That notebook would often be taken away and then slowly pushed back, but it was mostly filled with trivial things.
For example: "Jiang Yubai, how many words have you memorized today?"
Or: "It looks like it's going to rain outside."
It's obvious that this guy's chatting skills are incredibly bad, but he still insists on chatting with him every time. I don't know what he's after.
However, Jiang Yubai himself didn't mind and chatted with her until the end of get out of class.
And just like that, time flew by and it was the last day before National Day.
"What is this?"
At the entrance to the corridor, Jiang Yubai stared blankly at the rather large delivery box on the ground.
That's strange, he didn't buy anything. Just as he was about to bend down to check the shipping information, Lin Jianxia, who was next to him, seemed to suddenly remember something and hurriedly picked up the box first: "It's...it's what I bought..."
'
For some reason, the girl's eyes were somewhat flustered, and her ears were faintly red. She hugged the box tightly to her chest, showing no intention of letting go.
"...Okay, then I'll go to 9."
"No!" Lin Jianxia suddenly stood in front of him, stammering, "You, you wait at home for a while... I'll come over later, then you can go keep Wanwan company."
Although he didn't know what Lin Jianxia was up to, Jiang Yubai's lips twitched, and he still agreed.
Just as I was about to enter, a weak voice suddenly came to my ear: "Jiang Yubai..."

He turned around and saw Lin Jianxia still holding the box. Her lips moved as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she just pursed her lips and said, "Never mind..."
After uttering this nonsensical remark, the girl fled into her room.
baffling.....
Jiang Yubai muttered something strange, but didn't pay it any mind, and went straight into the room.
Early on National Day.
Jiang Yubai was still sound asleep on the first day of the long holiday when he was woken up by a persistent knocking on the door.
He slowly opened his eyes, glanced at the alarm clock, and said in a drawn-out, helpless voice, "Hey Lin Jianxia, it's National Day..."
...What time is it now?
The knocking outside the door quieted down for a moment, then Lin Jianxia's insistent voice came again: "Get up first... eat breakfast before you go back to sleep."
Nothing.
Jiang Yubai sighed, muttering to himself, "If breakfast isn't good, you're doomed," before nimbly getting out of bed, getting dressed, and washing up.
To be honest, he's a little afraid of Lin Jianxia now.
After all, this guy's mood was unpredictable, and he didn't dare to ask.
Especially yesterday, she brought such a big box into the room again, and when asked why, she wouldn't say anything, acting all mysterious.
Is he really planning to poison himself?
With her mind wandering, Jiang Yubai opened the door to her room after washing up.
"I said, Lin Jianxia, you—"
—
The words he was about to say were swallowed back down.
What appeared before my eyes was a scene straight out of a dream.
