Chapter 512 The Four Sisters Arrive at the Minrong Martial Arts Hall
In the blink of an eye, three days have passed.
Four new faces arrived at the entrance of the Minrong Martial Arts Hall.
Morning honey, daytime pearl, evening silk, night nymph.
The four stood in a row at the entrance of the dojo, each with a different temperament, yet all bearing the weariness of a long journey.
Asami, with her hair tied in a spiral ponytail, was carrying a suitcase bigger than herself and was looking up at the dojo's sign.
Day Pearl stood quietly behind her; Yuu Su squatted on the ground, rubbing her sore ankles and complaining softly, "It's so far"; the lively Ye Ni had already looked past the gate and landed on the training ground deep inside the dojo.
"Is this the place?" Asami turned to look at her sisters.
"Mm." Ye Ni nodded. "Minrong Martial Arts Academy, Master Li Luochen's... oh no, my husband's territory!"
Yuu finally stood up, brushed the dust off her skirt, and breathed a sigh of relief: "Finally... I can see my husband..."
Only Day Pearl remained silent.
The four exchanged glances, took a deep breath, and raised their hands to knock on the dojo's door.
Boom boom boom!
"You're here." Li Luochen pushed open the door, paused slightly when he saw the four people standing at the door, then smiled and stepped aside. "Come in quickly. You've come all the way from the Carlos region. Thank you for your hard work."
He casually took the suitcase, which was bigger than Chao Mi herself, from her hands, glanced at Xi Si who was squatting on the ground rubbing her ankle, and added, "But why didn't you tell me you arrived? I could have come to pick you up."
"Because my second sister is #%&!" Ye Ni blurted out, but before she could finish, Zhou Zhu behind her quickly covered her mouth.
"Mmmmmm!"
Zhouzhu remained expressionless, covering Ye Ni's mouth with one hand and nodding slightly to Li Luochen with the other: "It's nothing, we can get here by ourselves, no need for the master to trouble himself."
Chao Mi smiled helplessly to herself.
Xi Si winked at Li Luochen: "Honey, don't ask anymore, as long as we're here!"
Li Luochen glanced at Zhouzhu's hand tightly covering Ye Ni's mouth, then at Ye Ni's wide eyes, and wisely refrained from asking further questions. He smiled and nodded, "Alright, come in first."
......
"Alright, these will be your rooms from now on."
Li Luochen led the four people through the corridor and pushed open the four doors one by one: "Each person has a room, they're next to each other, so it's convenient to help each other out if anything happens."
Chao Mi peeked into her room first, her eyes lighting up: "Wow, the view from this window is great!"
Xi Si followed behind her, and when she passed Zhou Zhu's room, she glanced inside and whispered, "Second Sister's room is bigger than mine." Zhou Zhu pushed her head back without expression.
Ye Ni had already gone into her room, checked the bed and wardrobe, then turned and nodded to Li Luochen, indicating her satisfaction: "Thank you, husband!"
"Except for Zhouzhu, the three of you can leave now," Li Luochen added, leaning against the corridor wall.
Chao Mi was taken aback, Xi Si blinked, and Ye Ni tilted her head slightly. The three of them exclaimed in unison, "Huh?"
Zhouzhu remained calm, waved to her sisters, and said in a flat tone, "Go."
Chao Mi tactfully pulled Xi Si and Ye Ni out, and as they passed Li Luochen, she muttered something under her breath: "Second sister is stubborn, be gentle."
Li Luochen pretended not to hear, watched the three disappear around the corner of the corridor, and then turned to look at Zhouzhu.
"Come in and have a seat." Zhouzhu pushed open her door.
Li Luochen plopped down on the bed, even bouncing it a couple of times to test its elasticity, then looked up at Zhou Zhu standing by the door, his tone teasing: "What? Still not convinced?"
"Hmph." Zhouzhu turned her head to the side, her ponytail swaying, her gaze fixed on the air in the corner, refusing to look at Li Luochen. "He's just got a little money..."
"And then?" Li Luochen laughed, propped himself up with his hands behind him, and looked up at her. "If it weren't for me, your Battle City Fortress would have gone bankrupt."
Zhouzhu's lips twitched slightly. She didn't say anything, but turned her head back a little.
Li Luochen wasn't in a hurry; he just watched her with a smile.
After a few seconds of silence, Zhouzhu finally turned her head, her eyes lowered, and said in a very low voice, "Thanks."
"Hmm?" Li Luochen deliberately leaned closer. "I didn't hear you clearly."
Zhouzhu suddenly looked up, glared at him, but her ears turned slightly red: "I said, thanks!"
"That's more like it." Li Luochen smiled, leaned back on the bed, put his hands behind his head, and stared at the ceiling. "You're welcome, it's my pleasure."
"So what do you want to do now?" Zhouzhu sat down next to Li Luochen, the mattress sinking slightly.
She braced herself with her hands at her sides, her gaze fixed on the white wall opposite her. Her tone was softer than before, but still carried a hint of stubbornness.
"Then I definitely want you to serve me well." Li Luochen turned his head to look at her and smiled. "But judging from your expression, you definitely don't want to serve me well."
Zhouzhu pursed her lips and remained silent.
But there was no rebuttal.
Silence is an admission.
Li Luochen was right; she really didn't want to obediently "serve" anyone.
But ironically, this person did indeed do the fortress a huge favor.
Zhouzhu lowered her eyelashes and traced circles on the bed sheet with her fingers.
Li Luochen didn't say anything more, but simply looked away and continued staring at the ceiling, a slight smile still lingering on his lips, as if waiting for her to speak.
"Li Luochen, I actually have no problem with you."
"But... what I was thinking was..."
Zhouzhu's voice lowered, "I want to cultivate our relationship first, and then we can talk about those things once we have a foundation. Of course... if you want..."
As she spoke, Zhouzhu paused for a moment, but although she didn't continue, her meaning was still quite clear.
Li Luochen didn't look at her, still staring at the ceiling, and smiled: "Okay."
Zhouzhu was taken aback.
"Let's build rapport first, take it slow." Li Luochen turned his head to meet her gaze. "I'm not rushing you."
"However," Li Luochen changed the subject, "our Minrong Martial Arts Academy doesn't support idlers."
Zhouzhu looked up, her eyes becoming wary: "What do you want me to do?"
"Be my personal maid and serve me."
"...?"
Zhouzhu stared at him for three seconds, her brows furrowing slightly: "What's the difference?!"
"Of course there's a difference."
Li Luochen sat up and solemnly counted on his fingers as he told her, "'Serving me' is a broad term, including serving tea and water, washing clothes and folding blankets, massaging shoulders and legs, and being available whenever I call. That's about it for now."
"Of course, if you hire a 'personal maid,' you'll have an extra 'personal' part, but everything else is the same."
Zhouzhu's eyelids twitched: "Doesn't that mean nothing has changed?! You still want to get close to me, don't you?"
"That's your own interpretation of 'awkward criticism'."
Li Luochen stood up and whispered in Zhouzhu's ear, "Go run some hot water, I'm tired."
