Bai Liye’s gaze swept over Shi Liaoliao and Lu Yanzhou.
You two grown men, what’s with this atmosphere?
Why do I suddenly feel like I can’t fit in? Did something happen that I don’t know about??
“Why aren’t you eating? Is my cooking not good?”
Bai Liye sat down not far from Lu Yanzhou, her eyes, as clear as autumn water, looking pitiful and delicate.
Lu Yanzhou: “Hmm.”
Bai Liye: “……” Blind man.
Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed Shi Liaoliao sitting there as if nothing was wrong. Her tone was no longer as soft as before, carrying a clear hint of misplaced anger: “I’ve been here for so long, and I don’t even get a drink?”
It took a moment for Shi Liaoliao to realize she was talking to her. “What would Miss Bai like to drink?”
Lu Yanzhou glanced up at her.
Although inwardly rebellious, given her job… even if she was being deliberately difficult, what could she do?
“Something with a bit of class, something that matches my status…”
“From ’82?”
Bai Liye’s eyes lit up.
Château Lafite from 1982!!
Shi Liaoliao looked toward Lu Yanzhou, who was playing with the dog. Without even lifting his eyelids, he gave a slight nod.
With his approval, she turned and went to prepare it.
Left alone with Bai Liye, Lu Yanzhou clearly had much less patience.
The only reason he had stayed earlier was because of the unexpected situation.
Thinking of the sudden thoughts that had appeared in his mind, he curled his fingers slightly, planning to look up some information.
Half an hour later—
A servant knocked on his door.
“What is it?”
Shifting his gaze from the computer screen, Lu Yanzhou’s tea-brown eyes returned to their initial indifference.
The servant’s expression was complicated. “Miss Bai… has been taken away.”
Lu Yanzhou withdrew his gaze.
“Hmm, I see.”
“She was taken away by an ambulance,” the servant added.
Lu Yanzhou paused.
Suddenly realizing something, he looked at the servant outside the door with surprise.
“What did Shi Liaoliao give her to drink?”
The servant looked like they were about to cry: “…She… she… she gave Miss Bai…”
“Laxatives from ’82.”
Lu Yanzhou: “”
When the words “laxatives” came out, his cerebellum seemed to shrink.
“Hah…”
Leaning his forehead on his hand, he let out a low laugh, his shoulders trembling slightly.
The servant: “”
How am I supposed to bring up firing Shi Liaoliao now?
Remembering how Bai Liye had rushed out of the bathroom earlier, weak but still managing to slip him some money, the servant felt determined to fulfill his mission and drive out that fox-like Shi Liaoliao!
“Mas… Young Master, there’s one more thing.”
“Hmm?”
His voice still carried traces of uncontained laughter.
“I think you should go take a look at your own backyard.”
At the same time—
After sending off Bai Liye, the female antagonist, Shi Liaoliao returned to her room, hesitating over whether she should pack her bags.
It felt like Lu Yanzhou… had suddenly become strange.
Although Lu Yanzhou was the sole heir of the Lu family, his relationship with the current head of the family, his father, was not very harmonious.
The previous butler had been sent by his father to spy on Lu Yanzhou. As soon as Lu Yanzhou came of age, before he could even fill the position, the old man, the head of the Lu family, hastily sent Shi Liaoliao over.
As a result, the servants attending to Lu Yanzhou, including Lu Yanzhou himself, didn’t think much of her.
But Shi Liaoliao was helpless.
Upon opening her eyes, Shi Liaoliao found herself transformed into a male impersonator. The original body had left only a note, warning her never to reveal her gender, lest she face mortal danger.
Shi Liaoliao, bewildered and terrified, relied on the original host’s memories to maintain the persona, while also having to convincingly play the role of a man.
She had endured enough of this life—one where she couldn’t eat snail noodles, stinky tofu, or leek dumplings, and had to serve others!
Thinking of this, Shi Liaoliao, who in everyone’s eyes was perpetually expressionless, let out a mournful cry and angrily rolled around on the bed.
“Why hasn’t Lu Yanzhou notified me that I’ve been fired yet!!”
Just as the words left her mouth—
Something suddenly dropped onto Shi Liaoliao’s forehead, accompanied by a mechanical voice ringing in her mind, leaving her utterly stunned.
【Congratulations, host, on achieving the ‘Expel the White Lotus’ achievement. The system has been activated. Please continue to strive and complete the ‘Waiting for the Female Lead’ task to return to your original world】
Shi Liaoliao sat up, clutching the thing clinging to her face.
A fluffy little hamster with a round, plump body sat in her palm, looking at her with eyes as small as black beans.
【Hey~ darling】
Shi Liaoliao poked its butt, her expression somewhat surprised: “You’re the system?”
I’ve been here for two years, and you only show up now!!
As if sensing the resentment in her expression, the little hamster scratched its ears sheepishly.
【That’s how it is. After screening many transmigrators, we found your conditions most suitable, so we’ve only appeared before you now, dear host】
Shi Liaoliao noticed the key word.
“Book?”
Knowing its role had arrived, the little hamster sat squarely in her palm and began explaining: 【This system’s full name is ‘I Am a Brick in Romance, Wherever Needed, I Go’ system. You are currently in one of countless fictional worlds】
【The previous steward, due to an accident, didn’t survive until the male lead grew up and met the female lead, thus failing to trigger those key lines. So, you need to fill his position】
Shi Liaoliao raised an eyebrow.
“What lines?”
【It’s been so long since I’ve seen the young master laugh so happily】
【The young master has brought a woman home for the first time】
【I’ve never seen the young master care so much about a woman】
Shi Liaoliao: “”
Feels like a doctor friend yelling “Why call me over in the middle of the night?” is about to appear next.
“Wait… you mean I have to stay here now and can’t leave??”
She suddenly realized.
The little hamster nodded: 【Yes, yes】
Shi Liaoliao recalled what she had done.
Her heart sank.
Oh no.
Seeing Shi Liaoliao visibly becoming distracted, the little hamster nervously wiggled its butt.
It couldn’t help but remind her.
【Host, as per convention, shouldn’t you give me a name?】
Shi Liaoliao, with a face full of despair, said hollowly: “Wanwan.”
The little hamster excitedly patted its paws.
So cute?!
Beats 99% of systems worldwide!
The little hamster, now with a cute name, happily asked: 【Which Wan?】
Shi Liaoliao: “The Wan from testicles.”
Wanwan: “”
Someone, I want to call the police.
Just as it was about to protest, Shi Liaoliao’s door suddenly knocked.
She sprang up like a carp leaping—
Meanwhile, Bai Liye lay on an ambulance, her face pale and defeated.
Damn it, missed out on the sudden wealth, but the sudden shit came out first. I can’t even imagine what nicknames the Lu family would give me behind my back.
…
Shi Liaoliao stood up and opened the door. As soon as she met the gaze of the person outside, she took the initiative and said, “Coming to see me, is it about the ‘Pooping Girl’ thing?”
