One Hundred and Forty-Five Pages Legendary Sister Jitter
[November 30th / Saturday / 3:00 PM]
[Underground Shopping Street of the Balance Commercial District]
Unconsciously, it was already three o’clock in the afternoon.
A lot of time was wasted in Sister Qiūluó’s car. The impatient fool waiting upstairs called to urge her on.
“Chairman! Are you lost in the underground garage? Did you find Sister Xiaojiu’s car? Have you come up?”
Her voice was as usual, noisy and chaotic. The fool had no connection with the word “quiet.”
I replied, “Of course I found it.”
“Then hurry up! The intern maids from Peach Cat have returned! If you don’t come soon, you’ll be seen as retreating!”
This person couldn’t even speak without exclamation marks.
“Calm down, we’re walking from the underground street to the Balance Night Market.”
Just as I was about to hang up, Xiǎo Lěi on the other end continued, “Chairman! If I’m not mistaken, Lín Xiǎoyè is Lin Zǐyè, right?”
Walking and talking on the phone would slow us down, but I still asked, “Why ask this? Have your brain turned into muscle, making your memory worse, so you can’t even remember what happened last week?”
“There’s no muscle in my brain! It’s just that she looks completely different from Lin Zǐyè! She seems like a whole new person. I feel that Senior Chāngpú… Xiao Xiao encountered a strong opponent!”
Xiǎo Lěi, who had a strong hostility towards “Peach Cat,” praised Lín Xiǎoyè highly. However, in my previous impression, Lín Xiǎoyè, as an intern maid, didn’t stand out particularly. Now, I was somewhat skeptical.
Could it be because of her outstanding appearance?
She only temporarily became a beautiful girl when working part-time. Senior Chāngpú’s makeup skills were amateurish, and in terms of looks, Lín Xiǎoyè wasn’t inferior to her. So, it would be easy to overshadow Senior Chāngpú in appearance… However, a pretty face was just a basic requirement for such maid cafes; it wouldn’t be the deciding factor.
Senior Chāngpú’s advantage lay in her all-encompassing heart (D-cup) and her warm, spring-like aura, which could even purify the wickedness of evil spirits…
— “Lín Xiǎoyè isn’t small either, at least on par with Xiàlù.” —
Come on, girls with violent tendencies usually have smaller chests! This is nature’s law; violence shows a lack of gentleness, while a chest symbolizes gentleness.
—”Alright! That’s a great quote! I’ll pass it along to your three little girlfriends and your friendly childhood friend.”—
Are you trying to get me killed?
… Even though Cherry Sauce is also **, why is she not gentle with me at all?
“So, what’s different? Is she wearing a more attractive outfit today? Or did she wear something strange to grab attention?”
After some thought, Xiǎo Lěi replied, “No, she didn’t put much makeup on, and she’s still wearing the maid uniform left by her ‘mother,’ but I’m not referring to the difference in appearance. Her biggest change is in her aura! That gentle, attentive feeling, it’s just like Senior Chāngpú!”
Since Lín Xiǎoyè thought highly of ‘Xiao Xiao,’ it was normal for her to use Xiao Xiao as a maid reference book to learn from.
But could Senior Chāngpú’s accumulated experience in the service industry be imitated in just a short period of internship?
“Don’t worry, Senior Chāngpú is in good form today. She will definitely gain more support.”
“No way! I can’t lose to that traitor Xiàlù!”
“If you keep saying nonsense like that, I’ll hang up.”
Before Xiǎo Lěi could say anything else, I hung up.
Both she and Sister Qiūluó valued winning and losing, and their competitive spirit was strong. But this “maid battle” itself was just a spectacle to draw attention. To me, the outcome didn’t matter as long as it served its promotional purpose, then Lin Zǐyè’s goal would be achieved.
—”From a third-party perspective, perhaps it’s true, but if the participants don’t have the drive to win, there won’t be any excitement, right? I think it’s good that they have the fighting spirit; otherwise, I’d have nothing to watch!”—
Cherry Sauce said this.
“We’re almost at the Balance Night Market.”
Sister Qiūluó, who was leading, suddenly stopped. She turned back to Snow Auntie and said, “Mom, entering together might cause trouble. Why don’t you and my sister-in-law blend in with the tourists?”
Holding Xīmǎn’s younger brother’s hand, Snow Auntie nodded.
“Okay, I won’t cause trouble for Jiànlián.”
Earlier in the car, I felt this too. She seemed somewhat submissive… Despite being a great mother who supported the family single-handedly, she seemed unable to hold her head high in front of her children.
Senior Chāngpú covered her heart, looking rather conflicted. Sister Qiūluó was used to her mother’s submissive attitude and sighed, “It’s not that it’s troublesome, but with so many siblings, appearing in such a place might attract unwanted attention. It’s better to separate, but during voting, you should support Chāngpú!”
“Good!” A few childish responses.
Supporting one’s own sister was naturally the duty of a sibling.
Sister Qiūluó’s arrangement was clever.
On one hand, it protected the family, and on the other, it increased the fan base for “Kamehameha,” making up for the gap in fan numbers. Although the rules prohibit bringing people to the competition, those who arrive before the start aren’t counted, right?
“Let’s go. You’re the next star, you should stand in front of us.”
Sister Qiūluó grabbed her sister’s arm and placed her between us.
The maid outfit was very eye-catching, and everyone’s eyes focused on her, making me feel uncomfortable. But standing in the center, Senior Chāngpú wasn’t shy. As an experienced service industry veteran at eighteen, she had faced more embarrassing scenes than this. With a gentle smile, she confidently walked toward the center of the circular square.
Regular Customer A: “Oh! My old friend, that cheating bald turtle, to win the competition, actually brought back SAJI!”
Since there were regular customers of “Kamehameha” present, it was natural for someone to recognize the former ACE.
Regular Customer B: “That’s the angel of ‘Kamehameha’… This feeling of heart palpitations, I think I’m falling in love!”
As expected of Senior Chāngpú, she even has such nicknames.
Regular Customer C: “The Powerpuff Girl from ‘Kamehameha’ is also here, these sisters really look different.”
Regular Customer D: “Shh! Are you crazy? What if she hears you?”
They had already heard. Sister Qiūluó rolled up her sleeves and charged into the crowd, and only then did the crowd voluntarily make way for us.
Xiǎo Lěi also came over laughing, saying, “Oh! You finally arrived… Chairman, why did you put on a maid outfit yourself?”
“Don’t call me Chairman in public, it sounds weird!”
I raised my hand and rhythmically tapped the fool’s forehead.
“Tha, Ni, Ye, Bu, Yao, Da, Wo, Ya!”
Senior Chāngpú and Sister Qiūluó also greeted the shopkeeper.
“Shopkeeper Shēnyáng, it’s been a long time.”
Unlike her cultured sister, Sister Qiūluó wiped the blood off her fist and said, “Shopkeeper, I pulled Chāngpú over as soon as I got the call! Today wasn’t even my workday. Let me tell you, emergency shifts require extra pay, extra pay!”
This woman was still as greedy as ever.
Shopkeeper Shēnyáng was used to Sister Qiūluó’s personality and didn’t take her attitude to heart.
“Of course, as long as you help me win this match, I’ll give everyone a bonus.”
