It's Jiang Anran!
Jiang Anran stood there, a hint of shyness and unease on her face.
She bit her lip gently, as if psyching herself up, and finally mustered the courage to speak, "Starting today, I am Young Master Fei's maid. From now on, I will be responsible for taking care of your daily life." After speaking, she lowered her head, not daring to look at Fei Yangyao again.
"Ah?!"
"What's going on?"
"What happened?"
"Jiang Anran? Why are you here!"
Young Master Fei was baffled by the situation. Why had the female lead shown up here?
"Because Young Master Fei is hospitalized, Uncle Fu ordered me to come here and take care of you."
"Oh, I see... Wait, that's not it. When did you become a maid for our Fei Family?"
"Last night. Uncle Fu said there was a job here, so I quit my previous job and applied." Jiang Anran answered truthfully.
"Uncle Fu?"
Young Master Fei vaguely felt that Uncle Fu was the key person. He couldn't be bothered with her anymore and called Uncle Fu to understand the situation.
After listening to Uncle Fu's report, Young Master Fei finally understood.
It turned out Uncle Fu had imagined that he was lonely at home and needed someone to keep him company.
So he hired a maid. Furthermore, when he was hospitalized, Uncle Fu was also hospitalized and couldn't take care of his young master, so hiring a maid would make it easier to help take care of him.
Jiang Anran could also improve her meals, get some nutrition, and change her clothes.
It was a great thing for everyone.
Young Master Fei was speechless after listening.
A great thing for everyone?
No, it's not. Following the plot step-by-step is what's good for me. Anything else is not. I don't need this "great thing" at all.
As for Jiang Anran?
Finding a good job with a higher salary?
Jiang Anran doesn't need it at all. If she hadn't quit her convenience store job, she could have encountered Ye Chen now, improved his favorability, and finally returned to the Lin Family to start a new chapter in her life. Why would she need to work here?
Right! The convenience store plot!
Young Master Fei glanced at the time.
It was past nine o'clock!
With a "clatter," Young Master Fei swallowed.
It's over, it's over. It's useless to send her back now, the time has passed. He remembered the plot's timing was around now.
Is it still too late to send her back now? The convenience store is only about an hour away from the hospital. Could Ye Chen wait there for a bit?
What was he thinking? How could that be possible!
Then how can this plot be saved?
What about her scenes?
Moreover, bringing Jiang Anran, who has nothing to do with him, to his side.
How can he relax now?
Acting day and night, wouldn't that be exhausting!
Even the strictest boss only works 996, but he has to work the moment he opens his eyes, working 24 hours a day, 7 days a week continuously.
Isn't this making him a 007?
Young Master Fei wanted to get angry, but he didn't know who to direct his anger at.
Get angry at Jiang Anran?
That's a joke! He's trying to avoid her now. If he gets too entangled with her, what if the plot collapses?
Although there are faint signs of it now, it hasn't collapsed yet. His work results yesterday were obvious to all. Apart from a small unexpected incident in the middle, the overall result was satisfactory. The system even gave it a B.
Right, there's still the system, so he's generally quite at ease.
Yes, that's right.
As for getting angry at Uncle Fu?
Let alone the fact that Uncle Fu is an old family retainer, and he has never lost his temper with him, which would go against his persona.
Logically speaking, Uncle Fu didn't seem to have done anything wrong. It was just a slight misunderstanding.
What's more, his life-saving actions yesterday were very touching to Young Master Fei, so he couldn't get angry at him.
It's just that he's been injured recently, and he needs to follow the doctor's orders.
Uncle Fu, please take a good rest for a while.
Let that clever-looking Zhao Jinfei stay by my side during this time.
He seems like the perfect lackey for a spoiled young master, like a born villain's subordinate, he should understand what I mean.
Without further ado, Young Master Fei made arrangements with Uncle Fu. It was tentatively decided that Zhao Jinfei would stay by his side until Uncle Fu was discharged from the hospital, filling the vacant captain of the guards position, while Uncle Fu would take sick leave.
Hanging up the phone, looking at Jiang Anran, who was cutting fruit with her sparkling, blinking eyes in front of him, Young Master Fei couldn't help but get a headache.
"Uh, Jiang Anran, stop peeling. I, this young master, am officially informing you that you're fired!" Young Master Fei put on airs, deciding to send her away first.
If I have sinned, the law will punish me, not have the female lead act as a maid to serve me. With her around, Young Master Fei himself couldn't predict if the plot would have any other strange chemical reactions, so it's best to send her away first.
"Huh? But I signed a contract, how can you just fire me!" Jiang Anran was stunned, not understanding what Young Master Fei was up to.
A contract?
It's over!
One of the character settings for Young Master Fei in the book was that he respected contracts and would never violate them, even if the penalty for breach of contract was insignificant to him.
He wouldn't even engage in passive resistance!
In the book, his company went bankrupt, and his family was ruined because of this character trait, signing a contract with a hidden trap that led to a cash flow crisis.
This was a key character trait for Young Master Fei, something he couldn't violate.
"..."
After a moment of silent eye contact, he decided to have Uncle Fu send over a copy of the contract first. Only by knowing the enemy could victory be possible.
The more he read, the more uneasy he felt. How could this damn contract directly state "Follow Young Master Fei and serve him at any time"? This means I can't get rid of her!
"No other part-time jobs allowed?" Is this reasonable? She has her own plotline!
"No days off except for a few special holidays?" This kind of clause is definitely grounds for a lawsuit! Did you eat the labor laws?
There were also various harsh terms, which made Young Master Fei feel sympathy for the unfortunate workers. All of this was for the generous compensation at the end.
The work intensity... I can only say that your personal time is a bit lax, but your salary compensates for it very well.
It feels like a programmer at a major internet company.
Uncle Fu showed kindness, but not completely.
"I'm going to take a nap, don't disturb me!" Young Master Fei was forced to play the role of a "scoundrel" even in his own territory.
Entering the system.
"System, what should I do? Jiang Anran is here and won't leave, so what about her plotline!"
Young Master Fei never expected that one day he would not only have to worry about himself but also about other people's plotlines.
[Host, please rest assured, the plot has not been interfered with in any way. Even if there is any interference, it is minimal.]
The system quickly gave its assurance, but Young Master Fei didn't feel reassured at all.
However, on second thought, although he was repairing the Heavenly Dao, he only needed to play the villain. It was none of his business to worry so much. The emperor isn't worried, but the eunuch is. The system hasn't said anything, so why should he be anxious!
Besides, the plot of Jiang Anran meeting Ye Chen wasn't something he could control.
Once he understood, Young Master Fei stopped caring. He exited the system interface and quietly lifted an eyelid to glance at Jiang Anran. Seeing her meticulously arranging the flower baskets that had been delivered, he hesitated for a moment and then closed his eyes to sleep.
It is what it is.
If I'm awake, I have to act.
But if I fall asleep... can't I just get away with it? If the plot doesn't involve me, do they expect me to work overtime for no reason? No way!
Time to sleep!
