Just got divorced and immediately got seduced by the stunning senior sister -
Chapter 445: Zhao Xinlian: Master, Master...
Chapter 445: Chapter 445: Zhao Xinlian: Master, Master...
He had been doing this alone all along, even if he only cleaned once a week, after a year, that would still be fifty-two times, and over three years... One hundred and fifty-six times!
However, Zhao Xinlian had never heard Chen Wei complain even once; he had always been diligent and earnest.
After experiencing it firsthand, Zhao Xinlian suddenly realized that taking care of an entire household alone might not be as simple as she had imagined.
Just cleaning a bit of the swimming pool had severely exhausted her, to the point of utter fatigue, let alone, Chen Wei also had to take responsibility for three meals a day and all kinds of cleaning...
Zhao Xinlian’s mood became complicated.
"It’s time to prepare the foot-washing water for the master and President Su. Hurry up and come here, don’t make them wait anxiously," Lin Yibai said to Zhao Xinlian, who was still standing in a trance in the swimming pool.
Isn’t it over yet?
Never had Zhao Xinlian felt like she did at this moment, wishing that the day would pass quickly.
It was truly torturous.
Not to mention Chen Wei, Zhao Xinlian had never even carried foot-washing water for anyone, not even her parents.
But thinking of the agreements made with Chen Wei, however unwilling, resentful, or dissatisfied Zhao Xinlian felt in her heart... she could only crush them all and forcefully swallow them down.
After all, it was she who insisted on asking for Chen Wei’s help, not the other way around with him actively offering to help her.
Since he had already done what he promised her, how could she break her word!
Come on! Zhao Xinlian, you can do it! With your physical strength, mental toughness, you should be able to adapt to this lifestyle very soon! Yes! You’ll adapt very quickly!
Zhao Xinlian tried to convince herself.
Then, she and Lin Yibai came out of the bathroom carrying the foot-washing water.
"Yibai, come over to me," Su Yumei beckoned on her own.
"Alright, President Su."
Su Yumei preferred to see for herself the scene of Zhao Xinlian helping Chen Wei wash his feet, rather than having Zhao Xinlian wash her own feet.
Zhao Xinlian was a clever woman; how could she not understand the meaning behind Su Yumei’s words?
She had no choice but to approach Chen Wei, set down the footbath, kneel in front of him, take off his shoes, and slowly place his feet into the basin.
"How’s the water temperature? Is it okay?" Zhao Xinlian asked Chen Wei, lifting her head with a feigned smile.
She thought she had acted flawlessly, that even someone like Su Yumei couldn’t find any shortcomings.
Who would have expected that in the next second, Su Yumei would speak first: "What do you call him?"
"Call him what?" Zhao Xinlian didn’t catch on and didn’t quite understand the underlying meaning in Su Yumei’s words.
"Since you promised to come to Fushan Residence to serve as a maid for my junior brother, as a maid, how should you address him?" Su Yumei’s arms were folded across her chest, her gaze looking down from above, scrutinizing Zhao Xinlian like an empress, commanding without anger!
Master?!
Zhao Xinlian’s mind buzzed. What a joke, calling Chen Wei ’Master’? Master!
Zhao Xinlian’s pride simply would not allow her to do such a thing.
"If you can’t do it, I won’t force you, the door is right there, just leave," Su Yumei gave the order to expel her.
Zhao Xinlian could certainly leave, but remembering Su Yumei’s previous threat to destroy the Zhao Corporation, she immediately dismissed the thought.
Even if not for herself, Zhao Xinlian had to consider the entire Zhao Corporation.
Su Yumei’s power was nearly suffocating her.
Having no choice, she barely parted her thin lips and called out in a voice as quiet as a mosquito, "Master, Master..."
"Your voice is too soft. Who can hear what you’re saying?"
Chen Wei glanced at Su Yumei and wanted to say that she might be going a bit too far.
She was a far cry from the Su Yumei he knew, harsh enough to be dubbed a wicked mother-in-law from the city.
"Master! May I ask if the water temperature is suitable?"
However, Zhao Xinlian’s next sentence made Chen Wei withdraw his thoughts and prevent further trouble from arising between her and Su Yumei.
Chen Wei could only say, "It’s suitable."
"Then, master, I will start washing your feet now," Zhao Xinlian said, suppressing her feeling of humiliation.
Seeing her so earnestly and carefully cleaning Chen Wei’s feet, Su Yumei didn’t deliberately make things difficult for her any longer.
After washing his feet, when Zhao Xinlian returned from emptying the footbath, she found that Su Yumei was no longer by Chen Wei’s side.
"He went upstairs to sleep. He seemed very tired after a busy day."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Xinlian felt a great sense of relief.
She tentatively asked, "Has she always been so frightening... I mean, strict?"
"No, this strictness is reserved just for you," Chen Wei replied.
"That said, I should feel quite honored?" Zhao Xinlian wasn’t sure how to respond to Chen Wei’s comment.
"There’s no helping it. My senior sister has always doted on me and can’t bear to see me bullied. When she learned that I had been bullied in various ways as a son-in-law at the Zhao Family for three years, she even considered using all of the Su Family’s connections and power to destroy your Zhao Corporation."
After hearing Chen Wei’s words, Zhao Xinlian suddenly felt that Su Yumei’s current treatment of her was, perhaps, already quite gentle.
"You’ve always called her ’senior sister.’ So, you aren’t a gigolo she’s keeping?" Zhao Xinlian finally realized this might be a misconception.
"Gigolo?" Chen Wei chuckled, "Why would you think that?"
"They are my senior sisters. We grew up together. I have never been kept by them, nor am I a gigolo!" Chen Wei clarified.
"Senior sister... grew up together..." If Chen Wei had said this earlier, Zhao Xinlian might have doubted it.
But now, after spending so much time with him, she knew that Chen Wei wasn’t lying to her.
"Alright, you’ve had a long day as well, and you still have to go to the company in the morning. You should get some rest. Yibai has already prepared a room for you."
Hearing Chen Wei say this, Zhao Xinlian felt quite moved, but before she could respond, she noticed Lin Yibai emerging from a small room underneath the staircase.
"Is this also part of your revenge?" Zhao Xinlian asked with a wry smile.
"Not entirely. There are only three rooms in the house, one for me, one for my senior sister, and one for Yibai and Miaoke. If you don’t mind, you can sleep next to me. I have no objection," Chen Wei explained with a slight smile.
"..." Zhao Xinlian swallowed her words, "Goodnight! I’m going to sleep!"
"Goodnight," Chen Wei waved his hand.
Zhao Xinlian entered the small room under the staircase, which was even smaller and more cluttered than she expected, with dim lighting.
She had never imagined that one day she would be living in such a place.
But at this point, rather than cursing Chen Wei, Zhao Xinlian preferred to rest and have a good night’s sleep.
She was simply too exhausted from the day.
She felt as if her whole body was falling apart...
"Sister Bai, are you going out?" Chen Wei called out to Lin Yibai.
