In the golden age, the beginning involves controlling Zhu Suosuo.

Xu Hongdou said, "I'm used to it; I've always eaten like this."

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Then there's no doubt that you have a problem with your stomach. When you have some free time, find some time to get it checked out."

"This...no way? I feel perfectly fine," Xu Hongdou said with some concern.

Lin Yi said, "Why would I lie to you? It's fine if you eat like this occasionally, but if you eat like this every day for years, there must be a problem."

Xu Hongdou nodded and said, "Okay."

Lin Yi said with a smile, "You used to have to eat quickly because of work."

Now that you're with me, and I have nothing else to do, you don't need to rush.

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you," Xu Hongdou said.

"That's great, I like obedient people," Lin Yi said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Xu Hongdou's cheeks flushed slightly.

Xu Hongdou ate very slowly during the meal, but it must be said that the dishes were really delicious.

The meals she usually eats at the hotel, even though they're supposed to be staff meals, are really not very good.

After finishing his meal, Lin Yi received a phone call saying he had a drinking party to attend, so he got up to leave.

Xu Hongdou said, "Mr. Lin, I'll drive you there."

Lin Yi looked at Xu Hongdou and said with a smile, "Okay, thank you for your help."

"It's all what I should do."

Xu Hongdou drove Lin Yi to his destination.

Lin Yi smiled inwardly; the familiar routine was about to begin again.

Lin Yi thought that his acting skills should be pretty good, at least enough to fool Xu Hongdou without any problem.

……

After Lin Yi got out of the car.

Xu Hongdou said, "Mr. Lin, would you like me to come along?"

Lin Yi smiled and said, "No need, it's a men's drinking party. You're too beautiful, it wouldn't be appropriate for you to go."

"Okay, come pick me up in three hours."

Xu Hongdou nodded and said, "Okay."

Xu Hongdou was somewhat relieved that she knew Lin Yi's character beforehand, otherwise she really wouldn't have dared to become his private housekeeper.

Although I only serve one person, I still have a lot of worries.

For example, this time, if it were one of those disgusting customers, they would definitely ask her to come along, and who knows, they might even take advantage of her after they go in.

This kind of situation is very common in the workplace, which is why she is so cautious.

But Lin Yi didn't. He simply told her to go back and come back to pick him up in three hours.

In this way, Lin Yi would be the one to discuss the matter, and she would just have to wait.

Honestly, if Lin Yi insisted that she go in and accompany him, Xu Hongdou really wouldn't know how to refuse.

You can't exactly antagonize a major client on your first day at work, can you?

Fortunately, Lin Yi didn't.

Xu Hongdou felt a great deal of gratitude towards Lin Yi.

Xu Hongdou drove back to the hotel and went to her best friend Chen Nanxing's room.

When Chen Nanxing saw the person who had arrived, he smiled and asked, "Hongdou, how are you?"

Xu Hongdou smiled and said, "That's great. Lin Yi treats me like a friend and told me not to be too serious."

"That's good." Chen Nanxing breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I knew it. Lin Yi is such a good person, how could he possibly make things difficult for you?"

“Yes, yes, yes, Lin Yi is the best, right? He’s so great, but I haven’t seen you confess to him,” Xu Hongdou said.

"...The gap between us is too big, I'm a little scared," Chen Nanxing said. "Even if we got together now, I feel like our relationship is like a rabbit's tail, it won't last long."

Xu Hongdou let out a soft sound.

Upon hearing this, Chen Nanxing asked, "What? Do you think I said something wrong?"

Xu Hongdou said, "Of course that's not right. I knew it. If it works out, everyone will be happy. If it doesn't, we'll just be friends."

Given Lin Yi's personality, he certainly wouldn't be petty.

Besides, you only have a chance if you confess your feelings; if you don't, you have absolutely no hope.

Xu Hongdou: "Forget it, I won't say any more. If I say too much, you'll find it annoying. Think about it yourself."

Chen Nanxing listened and then fell silent.

She was quite certain that she liked Lin Yi.

Because Lin Yi is handsome and gentle, which fits her aesthetic.

Hongdou is right. There is only hope if you confess your feelings; if you don't, there is no hope at all.

Chen Nanxing said, "I'm going to confess my feelings to Lin Yi tonight."

Upon hearing this, Xu Hongdou burst out laughing.

Chen Nanxing: "What are you laughing at? What? Is the decision I made so funny?"

Xu Hongdou said with a smile, "It's not that your decision is funny, but that you've said similar things many times before, but you've never put them into action."

"..."

It seems true.

Chen Nanxing clenched her teeth and said, "This time, I'm serious."

"well."

Chen Nanxing asked, "Hongdou, you became Lin Yi's personal butler. Why did you come back instead of staying by Lin Yi's side?"

Xu Hongdou said, "Lin Yi has a social engagement, so it's inconvenient for me to go. He asked me to pick him up in three hours."

Chen Nanxing said, "Really? Is Lin Yi really that good?"

"real."

Xu Hongdou smiled and said, "Yes, Lin Yi is completely different from those big clients. He really treats me as a friend."

Many private butlers actually have some connection with major clients, but Lin Yi didn't do that.

Upon hearing this, Chen Nanxing's impression of Lin Yi became even more perfect.

As they were talking, Chen Nanxing smelled a delicious aroma, and his stomach rumbled loudly.

Chen Nanxing said, "I'm a little hungry. Hongdou, what should we eat?"

Xu Hongdou smiled and said, "No, I've already eaten."

Chen Nanxing looked at Xu Hongdou and asked curiously, "Where did you eat?"

Before Xu Hongdou could finish speaking, Chen Nanxing suddenly realized, "You're Lin Yi's personal butler? You had dinner with Lin Yi?"

Xu Hongdou smiled and nodded: "Yes, he said that as a friend, he felt embarrassed to have me watch him eat alone."

So he insisted that I sit down and eat with him.

Chen Nanxing was filled with envy and said, "Lin Yi is just too good."

Xu Hongdou nodded; she felt the same way.

Xu Hongdou said with a smile, "I ate squirrel-shaped mandarin fish, sweet and sour pork, braised pork belly with preserved mustard greens, steamed sea bass, and hot and sour shredded potatoes..."

Every time Xu Hongdou described a dish, Chen Nanxing couldn't help but swallow.

Chen Nanxing said pitifully, "Forget it, I'll just go out and find something to eat myself. The food at the six-star hotel is too expensive; I simply can't afford it."

Xu Hongdou said with a smile, "If I hadn't been with Lin Yi, I wouldn't have been able to afford this. This table of dishes cost five or six thousand."

"So expensive?" Chen Nanxing was astonished.

Xu Hongdou nodded.

Xu Hongdou pushed Chen Nanxing and led her out of 030 to find something to eat.

After so many days, Chen Nanxing's foot has actually recovered almost completely.

Xu Hongdou was worried that Chen Nanxing wasn't fully recovered, so she let her sit in a wheelchair for another day or two.

Chen Nanxing spent over two hundred yuan on a meal and then returned.

……

It was almost three hours. Almost the time she and Lin Yi had agreed upon.

Xu Hongdou drove off to pick up Lin Yi.

When Xu Hongdou arrived, she saw Lin Yi vomiting in the flower bed.

Xu Hongdou took a bottle of mineral water and handed it to Lin Yi.
