It seemed she had noticed Chen Yu’s gaze.
Huang Ke Ling’s face turned cold as she took half a step back, even raising her hand to shield her chest.
“Young Master, I’m a proper maid.”
“No, what kind of reaction is that!”
Chen Yu was furious.
He really could not handle this maid anymore.
Why did she always react like this, as if he were some lust-crazed bastard!
“Aren’t you?”
“Of course not…”
Chen Yu subconsciously replied, but his expression quickly froze.
No, he remembered—he had not even said it out loud!
Chen Yu’s face twisted into pure horror.
“You really don’t have mind-reading abilities?!”
Huang Ke Ling slightly narrowed her eyes, her gaze carrying a hint of pity.
“Young Master, please don’t be so childish. Superpowers don’t exist.”
Her expression was practically screaming how she had ended up serving such a childish young master.
“What kind of nonsense is this!”
Chen Yu gnashed his teeth in anger, but ultimately did nothing.
Aside from saying weird things, this maid was actually… pretty nice?
“I had something I wanted to ask of you just now!”
Huang Ke Ling coldly turned her head toward Chen Yu and silently blinked.
“Please speak.”
This time, she did not continue spouting nonsense.
Seeing this, Chen Yu felt much more at ease.
After all, this maid was quite reliable, and the tasks entrusted to her had always been completed well.
However, the matter he wanted to entrust this time was a bit embarrassing, and Chen Yu did not know how to phrase it.
“It’s just that…”
He trailed off halfway and shook his head again.
Sure enough, it was still too hard to say.
“Indeed, let’s forget it.”
He wanted Huang Ke Ling to transfer schools as well, to help him restrain Chen Guang while also assisting the An family sisters.
But this matter was truly not easy to command.
After all, this little maid of his family was not only a maid at home but also attending school.
Huang Ke Ling was a bit younger than him and the same age as An Qing and An Yu.
She was also in school, just not at the same one as them.
Since she was in school, she must have her own social circles.
Chen Yu knew exactly how troublesome dealing with interpersonal relationships could be.
If he made Huang Ke Ling leave her current school and transfer to a new one, it would definitely waste all the efforts she had made so far.
So Chen Yu decided to forget it.
“Young Master, I am your maid.”
There was no change in expression on Huang Ke Ling’s face, her tone icy cold, yet her attitude extremely respectful.
She was reminding him that as a maid, she would obey her master’s orders.
Huang Ke Ling…
Chen Yu furrowed his brows.
He understood what Huang Ke Ling meant, but he still felt it was wrong to casually change someone’s life like this.
“Oh, but I can’t accept lewd commands.”
Just as Chen Yu was struggling, the girl’s follow-up jab landed immediately.
“Huang Ke Ling!”
Chen Yu nearly broke and could not hold back from shouting her name again.
“I’m here.”
However, Huang Ke Ling remained perfectly calm.
She simply nodded quietly, as if nothing had happened just now.
Looking at her like this, Chen Yu was momentarily speechless, and even the finger pointing at the girl trembled slightly.
“Young Master.” Huang Ke Ling coldly parted her cherry lips. “So you still want to give a lewd command?”
However, for some reason, this time the girl did not retreat.
In those silver eyes, there was a meaning that was difficult to understand.
“Who would do that!” Chen Yu answered almost instantly.
He had not even clearly seen the look in the girl’s eyes and had hurriedly denied it.
To be honest, Chen Yu felt that dealing with this maid Huang Ke Ling was far more exhausting than stopping Chen Guang and the like.
“Not giving it?”
“Not giving it!!”
This time, Chen Yu practically roared.
“Is that so.”
Before him, Huang Ke Ling nodded expressionlessly, looking completely indifferent.
But it was exactly this that made Chen Yu’s head hurt even more.
He had no idea what she was thinking at all.
Forget it.
He should quickly state the matter he wanted to entrust and end this as soon as possible.
He was tired.
Honestly, he wanted to rest.
“Haa…” Chen Yu let out a breath of turbid air, and his expression gradually became serious.
“Huang Ke Ling, can I ask you to transfer schools?”
Upon hearing this, the girl furrowed her brows slightly.
Chen Yu rarely sensed a trace of displeasure from her.
But it was fleeting, and he did not know if it was his imagination.
“Transfer schools? To the school Young Master Chen Guang transferred to?”
Huang Ke Ling spoke softly, her expression showing neither joy nor sorrow.
Chen Yu was dazed for a moment but ultimately nodded.
“That’s right. I want you to help me stop Chen Guang and keep him from approaching An Qing.”
Rarely, the girl fell somewhat silent.
Huang Ke Ling lowered her eyes slightly, her gaze looking a bit strange.
“Young Master, is this your fetish?”
Chen Yu was a bit bewildered and could not understand what Huang Ke Ling meant.
“What do you mean?”
“Sending your maid to another school and then having her approach another man… Is this your fetish?”
“Huh?!”
Chen Yu was stunned, seeming not to react at first, but soon his expression turned to shock.
What the hell was Huang Ke Ling saying?!
“Is that so? I understand. If it’s your command…”
Huang Ke Ling lowered her head.
Although she appeared very calm, she gave off a pitiful vibe.
After saying the last sentence, she turned to leave.
But this time, Chen Yu panicked.
“No, wait, wait a second!”
Chen Yu anxiously grabbed Huang Ke Ling’s hand.
Although he did not know what she was thinking, he could not let her leave while carrying this misunderstanding!
This was Chen Yu’s experience from being a yuri knight for so many years.
If there was a misunderstanding between a yuri couple and one was allowed to leave without resolving it, the internal friction would only worsen.
When they met again, it would be hard to bring them back together successfully.
Although, they were not a couple—they were just an ordinary young master and maid.
“Young Master, is there something else?”
For some reason, Chen Yu felt that Huang Ke Ling’s voice had become much more distant.
“Don’t misunderstand. I just wanted to ask you to help restrain Chen Guang. I’m not pushing you away. You’re still my…”
Chen Yu wanted to explain clearly, but halfway through speaking, he suddenly realized something was wrong.
“Wait, since when did you become my maid?”
He furrowed his brows and looked at the cold-faced maid before him.
“Aren’t you a maid hired by our family? When did you become my personal one?!”
In that instant, Chen Yu’s mind spun rapidly, and he finally pinpointed what was wrong.
These conversations should not have held up from the beginning!
Huang Ke Ling was not his personal maid at all, and there was no such thing as pushing his own maid outward!
As soon as Chen Yu’s words fell, the maid’s expression before him suddenly changed subtly.
Tsk.
Huang Ke Ling clicked her tongue expressionlessly, looking quite displeased.
“Huang Ke Ling?” Chen Yu was stunned. “You just clicked your tongue?!”
“Replying to Young Master, no such thing. You must have misheard.” Huang Ke Ling’s attitude was as respectful as ever, with no visible flaws.
But her earlier appearance had been completely caught by Chen Yu’s eyes—what was the point of acting now?!
“Then, Young Master, I will go execute your task. Farewell.”
The girl lifted the hem of her skirt slightly and elegantly left Chen Yu’s room.
“Hiss…”
In that instant, Chen Yu suddenly realized that he had almost been tricked by Huang Ke Ling again.
I root for Huang Ke Ling once more, lmfao. Mess with him!
