On her new status as the worker-maid, Chu Zhu Yu massages her stiff shoulder. She indeed needs a strong body to be maid, even only sweeping the yard, it also tired her to death. Who knows the general yard is so big, shocking people to death.
The young master of Kang residence and the general residence, General Xiao Zhi are both good looking men. But the differences between they are the young master of Kang residence is well known promiscuous, has bunches of wives, even he has an affair with the lady courtesan. That’s why Chu Zhu Yu decided to sneak into Kang residence for complete her plans.
While this Xiao general is famous for his unattractiveness toward women. Coming into Xiao residence as maid, that’s mean it really only be …maid.
Chu Zhu Yu has been massaging her shoulder for half day but still feeling her back in pain. And at this time she even craving for tea.
her childhood, she is growing up by her father influence of “tea” this thing, she loves to smell tea, brew tea, drink tea, even Chu Sheng ever told that Chu Zhu Yu body smell alike some types of tea.
Push to open the window, Chu Zhu Yu looking outside for the full moon. The night silent deeply, it would be better…
She rolled her eyes, she is sneaking and looking around the general residence and moving out tea set. Then she sneaking into the kitchen secretly boiling a pot of water. In here, there is no choice to brew the tea using good water so she only makes with what she finds.
Chu Zhu Yu puts the tea leaves into the pot until the water boil, she even increased the temperature until the tea leaves rotate and then gently scrape. the tea floating in white foam, covered it with lid.
Her black shadow of plump figure holding tea pot is walking to toward her own room. She feeling relieved when she is in her own room. Walking inside her room, there is a small table. She poured couple cups of tea and put in the table, the heat of boiling tea touch the tea and making her room filled with tea aroma. Slowly spread to entire of room.
Chu Zhu Yu can’t hold her deep breath. Both of her hands gently raised the cup of tea and using her nose to smell, enjoy the aroma of the tea.
Gently sipping her tea, sweeping all her tired feeling and bad mood of getting mistaken into general residence.
“it’s alright, since she is here, just goes as plan, general also good looking man. It doesn’t mean no opportunity.” On that way, Chu Zhu Yu can comfort herself. One side sipping her tea and the other side looking at the full moon from her room window. suddenly her mouth opens and she read poem “The light of shiny moon, uxorilocal most difficult, if this time the king here, I prefer to marry him…”
At the moment, in front of her eyes, a shadow which is blocking the moon light and gently landed in front of her.
Such a fairy Buddha-look, the wind gently blowing the dark and long straight hair, haunting the moonlight which makes difficult to ignore.
Is this a human? Or the living fairy?
Chu Zhu Yu staring the figure who standing outside from her window. This is a good looking man, tall, long and his lean body wrapped in black robe and the wide sleeves narrow to waist. He is wearing Yu Guan on his hair. While the golden belt tied around his waist, beautiful eyebrow, watery eyes, aquiline nose, thin lips with extremely pale pink, the good looking face in the darkness of night actually gives a sense of immortality feeling.
“Are you human?” the word already blurted out before thinking.
And the person is sweeping her with his glance, “who are you?”
“The maid at Xiao residence.” Ng, this is her new status.
“name?”
“Chu Zhu Yu.” She desperately reported her name.
He moves his brow, the next moment he has moved to the front of her window and say weirdly, three words—- still be able.
Chu Zhu Yu confused, “what is still be able?”
“You are not to thin, hugging won’t loose hand.”
“…..” She sweating, “I am plump and not fat!” those meat on her body is one the most she hates, every time she sees other girls make up was graceful, while she even make her own dresses from the fabric cloth and spend more than others.
“No one said you fat.” The beautiful person looked at her, his voice sound like soft willow but truly nice, “just now what are reading?”
Alright la, good looking person really good looking, even the voice is nice. She decided by judging his beauty, forgiving him of what he was saying before, “nothing, random read.” He doesn’t carefully listen to the poem.
“that thing on your hand, what is it?” the beautiful man keep asking.
“oh, it is tea.” Chu Zhu Yu just remembered if she is holding hot tea cup.
“smell good.” He said.
Once Chu Zhu Yu feels her hand loosen, her cup tea is on the other person hand already.
The slender finger holding the tea shiny purple tea cup, Chu Zhu Yu looking at the beauty and exclaimed beauty man even has beauty fingers.
Xiao Zhi picks the tea cup, smell the scent of the tea. Very soft not too strong, it fruit and flower scent. Just now, he is hard to get sleep, under the moon light he has walking and get hooked with the scent which is this tea scent.
“is this a scent of tea?” he feel kind different from the usual tea he has.
“do you like to drink tea?” she asked, It kind hard to find someone who likes tea in general residence but meeting this kind of skilled person, she must have good chat with him.
He thinks a moment and answer : yes.
Chu Zhu Yu get interested, “so, usually what kind of tea do you like to drink?” as she has been working as maid in general residence, it real hard to meet someone who likes tea, naturally she should has good chit chat.
“Ju Shan Yin Zhen.” What he said is the yellow types tea that is one of the best tea.
“Chu Zhu Yu speechless, that is one of the best tea ah~ , in the market it price extremely expensive, because it is valuable tea, it hard to price. “The others kind?”
“that’s all.” He shook his head.
“….” Speechless, “So you only drink this kind of tea?”
“Is there something wrong?”
“Tea has so many types and variant, you only drink one kind, don’t you feel kind of regret.” She uses very pity eyes sight looking at him, “drinking tea ah~, should trying to taste many types of tea because drinking different tea will give different feeling.”
“is it true?” he looked down, he looked to the cup on his hand.
Chu Zhu Yu continue said : “just alike this type of tea in your hand, this is the type of An Hui red tea, This kind of tea has clear red color, once it enter into mouth it fresh lasting after taste.”
while she speaking, she also uses her sparkling eyes looked at Xiao Zhi, as if her eyes saying, give a try la~ give a try.
Xiao Zhi frowning, but still his hand raise the tea cup. His thin lips close to the lip of tea cup and slowly drink the tea.
She carefully observe his expression, from his expression she not sure whether he likes or dislike with the tea.
“It truly a good tea, the taste exactly as you describe.” He smiles on his face, this beautiful man seems to satisfy with the tea.
What beautiful smile! In the innocence of him, Chu Zhu Yu realized, She gets understanding why the ancient people loves to drink tea and smile while chit chat. So, smiling can makes someone feels drowning.
“As I told you.” She smiles, “ drinking tea, you shouldn’t only drink one type of tea but you must try others types of tea too.”
He lower his head, seems to think of what she said, not long after, he walk at the table side, automatically his hand takes tea pot and pour it to another cup.
Once the tea enter his mouth, the thick scent of sweet giving nice feeling, his body slowly feeling relax after scent the tea. So, the bad mood slowly goes away and changes be better. Once he finished a cup, he pours another cups and keep on drinking.
Even she brew delicious tea but he can’t keep on drinking in that way! Chu Zhu Yu dumbly looking, then said “ You… don’t you think you have drink too much?”
“No.” he shook his head. “This is a good tea, after I drink it, I am feeling drowsy, it will make me easy to sleep.” Xiao Zhi eyes seriously stare at Chu Zhu Yu while holding tea cup. He fills with expectation.
“drowsy? Do you have problem with sleeping?” in the middle of silent night. Because of his difficulty to sleep, that’s why he strolling at night and incidentally find her place.
“Ng.. difficult to sleep.” He nodding his head. His hand gently massage his forehead, his brow frown showing the exhausted facial.
In the moment, Chu Zhu Yu looked at Xiao Zhi with pity expression, “Does my tea really makes you drowsy?”
“ The tea that you brew are really different with other people, it give me very comfortable feeling.” It indeed very comfortable and make the body feeling so relax. Never knows that tea will give help to cure the weird sickness.
“So that’s it.” She drown in deep thinking. Father also experienced Insomnia before, that time Mother still alive, then every night Mother brewing kind of tea for Father to make him easy to sleep. For short of time, Father insomnia has gone. “You wait a~, let me brew another type of tea for you to test.”
She directly makes another new type of tea.
“How?” she looks him gulping the tea, specially asking him. Long time ago, she brew this type of tea for her father, hoping it will give same effect for him.
“taste good.”
“do you have feeling want to sleep?”
“perhaps, I need to drink couple cups.”
So, in the middle of night, one brewing tea and another one drinking tea.
Xiao Zhi drinks couple cups of tea until he feels tired. With half open eyes, he come closer to her and shorten the distance between he and Chu Zhu Yu, close to her waist. Chu Zhu Yu begin to clean up the table.
Xiao Zhi suddenly feel the ooze of tea get into his nose. “Smell good…”
“after drinking tea, naturally will leave some scent.”
“No!” this kind of scent not same with the one he drank. But the scent comes from her body, it like tea but also not tea, the scent not heavy but also not too soft, it makes those who smells feel so comfortable. It just give a sensation to keep on smelling the scent, more… and more… it really can’t help, he come closer to her, wanting to scent more and more.
Chu Zhu Yu body stiffen, this posture gesture really…too…too.. equivocal. The most exaggerated is, his head, become very closer to her body, finally he hugs her.
“wei! You, you, you, you should know that the man and woman are different!” even he is type of rare beautiful man she could meet, but still his attitude unacceptable a~! Chu Zhu Yu thinking to push down him.
But her hands has been lock up by his broad chest while her waist has tightly hug by him. And suddenly he dragged her into his arm.
“So soft.” He murmured. “it won’t loosen.”
Please! he just saying her fat! She thinks to give him cold glance and pointing his eyebrow but she is hugged by him and no way she could do so.
“hugging you like this is so comfortable.” He drown to drowsiness.
“hei! Hei! Don’t hugging la!” she rejected. But it useless.
Chu Zhu Yu is trying use up all her energy to push down him.
One she pushed, no reaction.
Trying once more, still same no reaction.
Third times she pushed him, there slightly reaction but the result is he even hug her tighter and directly goes straight to her wooden bed.
Crunching!
The wooden bed is sustained two person weight. Clearly it really dangerous.
“you wake up ah! Don’t press my body!” she makes loud noise. Frankly speaking she is unmarried girl.
“You really loud!” he frown his eyebrow very dissatisfied because he is in stated of getting sleeping, she even makes a noise near his ear.
“wei! If you still won’t get up, I will shout and called people ah! Till that time, I will say you intruded to general residence’s maid room. This won’t be simple accusation.”
“I won’t get any accusation, company me sleeping, and don’t make noise.” He is half-sleeping, that frowning eyebrow also disappeared and his facial expression changed to clear crystal. Compare to the first time she saw, it very different. He, at this time makes Chu Zhu Yu as if get into confusion falling to demon world and give a sense being sucked by his evil charm.
Beauty trick! Beauty trick!
Does this count as getting into beauty scheme?
She hardly to swallow her saliva, stuck between the “innocence” and beauty, She still choosing to be clear innocence and during that time she really forget the reason why she entered the general residence. Doesn’t she want to lose the virginity and having baby?
“whatever, you are not allowed to hug me, moreover you are prohibited to say wanted me to company you sleep, I am not your…”
“really not obedient.” Xiao Zhi mumbling. Lift his finger and acupuncture Chu Zhu Yu’s lower body point.
Instantly, she not able to speak moreover her body can’t move.
Oh my Holy God, is it what they called as martial art? This person who drank so many cups of her tea, the beauty man who crazily want to hug her, does he someone from martial art world?
Finally Chu Zhu Yu feels this is the most contretemps “moment” that happen to her. In the silent deep night, her body is pressing by the stranger, a pair of hand tightly hugging her, and his head resting on her. Every centimeter of his body is sticking into her body only separate by their clothes and she could even feel the warmth of his body temperature.
The most and most contretemps is, he just…sleep on that way! So what should she does? Should she in this state till the morning comes?
It really wasting her sympathy toward him, let him to drink her tea and at the end she got this kind of “deed” from him! This is the first time Chu Zhu Yu experiences crying without dropping tears.
