Chapter 20 Maid's First Rule
After meditating in the first half of the night and punching the ground in the second half, Luo Wei slept very well. When he opened his eyes, the sun had already dyed the latticework of the hotel's shutter window red, casting a strip of crimson light inside the hotel.
Looking at the crimson light bar close to him, Luo Wei subconsciously narrowed his eyes, and an inexplicable sense of disgust arose in his heart.
What a cold joke... I've only been an undead for seven days, yet I'm already afraid of sunlight like a real zombie.
With this thought, Rovin sat up and found that the quilt on Felicia's large bed had been folded, and there was no sign of Felicia in the entire room. Only the tireless undead Gudlak and Tarrant were huddled in a corner where sunlight couldn't reach, staring at each other with wide eyes.
Then Luo Wei saw a set of brand new clothes neatly laid out on his right side.
This new garment could have come from no one but old Couturière Scott.
Sokrate's tailor was faster than Rovi had imagined, and after Rovi asked the hotel maid to inform him, old Sokrate even sent his apprentice to deliver a custom-made suit for Rovi by nightfall.
Rovin designed this set of clothes, which is actually a black outer red inner small lapel tailcoat. Rovin thinks that such a suit will make him look more like a vampire than a civilian zombie.
Old Sokote's craftsmanship was indeed good, and the fabric he chose for making clothes was also very thick, so after putting on the swallowtail suit, he summoned the Frost Shield to take a look at Rovy, who nodded his head in satisfaction.
The reason why it's just satisfactory and not very satisfactory is that the old tailor's cutting skills are actually good, but the materials of the clothes and the lockstitch craftsmanship are slightly worse, and the sewing needle is very wide, which can't be compared with the world's sewing machine.
But overall, at least the clothes don't have any problems when worn out. Wearing a white dress shirt and tie that were bought together with a tailcoat, the pale complexion of a handsome vampire is reflected in the icy shield.
As Rovin was almost dressed, the doors of his guest room were pushed open from outside. Rovin had ordered his undead butlers, Gudlac and Teland, not to let anyone in, so he knew that whoever entered must be Felicia.
It was indeed Felicia who pushed the door open, but at this moment, Felicia had an apron tied around her waist and a floral headscarf wrapped around her head. Not to mention that both hands were struggling to hold a large plate of fragrant food, looking like a little kitchen maid at first glance.
"Ah——, Mr. Luo Wei, you're awake?"
When Rovin saw Felicia push the door open and enter, Felicia also saw that Rovin was already fully dressed, so when she spoke, her eyes were filled with a strange color called astonishment.
Felicia is not a hopeless patient with dementia, but at this moment she looks like the elegant vampire Rove, really visually impactful, and Felicia has also reached the age of first love.
"I told you, eating what the inn provides is fine, I'm not as picky as Felicia imagined."
Rovin nodded towards Felicia and walked forward to take the food tray filled with food that Felicia was holding in both hands.
"It's not that I didn't want to, Mr. Rovin, but the hotel doesn't serve breakfast and you have a habit of eating breakfast, so I had no choice but to make it myself."
Felicia hastily explained.
Rovi indeed had the habit of eating breakfast, a habit that was formed since childhood due to his parents' influence before crossing over. However, Felicia's mention made Rovi's expression slightly gloomy, because the parents who taught Rovi to eat breakfast every day were no longer there.
In the past, during traditional festivals, Luo Wei could still go to sweep his parents' graves and burn incense. Now that he has been transported through time... will his parents' graves be left untended and overgrown with weeds due to no one visiting? Will they even be forcibly demolished by relevant departments?
What is the distance between this otherworldly world called Etern and Earth in billions of light years?
"Mr. Luo, you...you...what's wrong?"
In a daze, Felicia's concerned soft call echoed beside Rovin's ear.
And so, Lavi, who had been worried and downcast by the stirring of his heart, returned to normal in a soft voice - Ah, the Earth can't be returned, so now the only thing I can comfort my parents with is to try my best to live well in this present day of swords and magic.
"I'm fine."
Rov smiled at Felicia and then carried a plate full of food to the table in the guest room.
"Felicia, what are you still standing there for? Come over quickly and let's eat together."
Since Felicia didn't follow up, Luo Wei turned his head and beckoned her over.
"Mr. Luo, it's not proper for a maid to eat with her master."
Felicia didn't respond, but stood still and shook her head.
"Who told you this?"
Luo Wei furrowed his brow, if he wasn't mistaken yesterday afternoon, Felicia was still eating with him at the same table, so the so-called rule that maids can't eat with their masters must have been something others instilled in her.
"It's... Bentona sister." Felicia hesitated for a moment before revealing who had taught her the knowledge of being a maid, and then added: "When I was making breakfast, Bentona sister knew about my situation, she sympathized with me, so she enthusiastically told me some rules about how to be a qualified maid, saying that her younger sister is a professional maid in Lord Nelson's house in the town."
"Don't listen to her." Rove put down the dinner plate, then he looked at Felicia and said word by word: "Firstly, Felicia, there is no real mistress relationship between you and me. I will find a suitable foster home for you within three months. Secondly, even if you were my maid, the knowledge she taught you was all wrong, because the first rule of being a maid is to obey the master's orders."
Felicia's face suddenly turned white, but she was clever enough not to ask loudly or cry why Rove wanted to send her away within three months, instead focusing on the second hypothesis made by Rove.
A maid's first principle is to obey her master's orders - Felicia remembered this phrase and remembered it firmly.
"I understand you, Mr. Luo!"
So said Felicia.
Just as Felicia was about to obey Rovin's previous command, a gentle knock at the door came from behind her half-closed door.
"Excuse me, is Mr. Veerhooven at home? I am Stretton, the steward of Lord Nelson, and I have come to deliver an invitation on his lordship's behalf."
A middle-aged man's voice sounded outside the door.
The dividing line of seeking points and collecting receipts
Thank you very much: qlizhipeng12, (⊙﹏⊙b sweat) two book friends cast a wave of evaluation votes.
What's up, 7 chapters of "Killing the Big Shark" are being urged by book friends, and some wizard finds a reason to ignore them with a painful expression... Hmm, quality is more important than quantity, this reason seems pretty good ~(O(∩_∩)O~)
