402: Gradually accept

"Come, let me show you around my Immortal Cave. Although you've been a guest before, there are some places you still need to familiarize yourself with," Chen Xuan said indifferently.

"No, no problem!"

Afterward, Chen Xuan took Hua Mengjie to familiarize herself with his nearly 300-square-meter Immortal Cave.

Soon, the two had walked a full circle, and Hua Mengjie had a general understanding of Chen Xuan's room, her own room, Lin Rou's room, and the approximate daily tasks.

"Alright, Master, I basically understand what I need to do. You rest, I'll start working now."

Hua Mengjie gracefully invited Chen Xuan to sit in the living room, then efficiently began her work.

The second point Chen Xuan required in the contract, cleanliness, meant that household chores had to be manually organized; Spells could not be used, especially the floor, which had to be wiped by hand with a towel every day.

"Tsk, Mengjie, I'm a little thirsty."

"Master, here's some coffee for you," Hua Mengjie said, bringing Chen Xuan a cup of rich, fragrant coffee.

Although she wasn't sure what it was, if Chen Xuan wanted to drink it, she would make it for him.

"Mm! Good, good, good!" Chen Xuan looked at Hua Mengjie with great satisfaction.

"You are very likable! I am very satisfied."

"Thank you, thank you for the Master's praise!" Hua Mengjie smiled sweetly and turned to get busy again.

It turned out that Chen Xuan's emotional value was so easy to provide; from now on, she just needed to be more diligent...

She had already begun to imagine herself receiving Peach Blossoms every day, then giving them to Li Qingfeng, and him praising her.

Although Chen Xuan's praise also made her very happy, he, Chen Xuan, certainly could not compare to Brother Qingfeng!

As she thought about it, Hua Mengjie felt full of confidence and quickly and efficiently began tidying the room. In less than two hours, she had cleaned and organized "single man" Chen Xuan's messy lair.

"Come, come, Mengjie, you're tired. Come sit here and look at the secret information about the Cultivation World I've recently collected."

"Mm!"

Hua Mengjie sat generously on the sofa next to Chen Xuan, chatting with him while looking at the secret information he had read.

...

In a flash, three months passed. Hua Mengjie had become familiar with her work, and from her initial apprehension, she was now completely at ease, a great weight lifted from her heart.

This Master, though the title felt a bit shy to use, was truly not a bad person; he was very gentlemanly and gentle.

Although he sometimes took advantage verbally, he was actually very disciplined. Sometimes, when he was in a good mood, he would even reward her with various flavored drinks.

At the same time, she had become accustomed to calling Chen Xuan Master.

"Alas! I never thought that little sister Lin Rou could marry a man as wealthy and refined as him, what a great blessing! I wonder when I can be with Brother Qingfeng..." Hua Mengjie thought to herself.

"Go, go, go! What am I thinking about all this nonsense? Building a good relationship with Chen Xuan is the top priority!"

Of course, as Hua Mengjie became familiar with Chen Xuan, Chen Xuan naturally also became familiar with Hua Mengjie, which was very important.

At the same time, during these three months, Hua Mengjie's Intelligence-Lowering Aura had increased by another 10%, reaching a terrifying 40%.

(The Intelligence-Lowering Aura doesn't lower IQ, it just makes people mindless. Uh, it seems like the same thing... but you understand!)

"Mengjie, this is your pay for this month. Keep it safe," Chen Xuan said, handing over a purple Peach Blossom.

"Ah? Ma-Master, but I've already received one Life Peach Blossom in advance. You... this is too much!"

"Oh, it's alright. That Life Peach Blossom... let's just consider it a bonus. You've worked so well, rewarding you is only right," Chen Xuan said indifferently.

Just kidding, these Peach Blossoms were as plentiful as Spiritual Qi in his hands. As long as he had Spiritual Qi, he could create them. He didn't care about one hundred or two hundred of them at all. He didn't care about two or even one Peach Blossom.

However, to the intelligence-lowered Hua Mengjie, this was no small sum.

"Thank you, Master!"

But this time, Chen Xuan did not speak politely as before, but said in a master's tone, yet gently and kindly:

"Don't thank me. You are very obedient. This is what you deserve. In the future, you must grasp the relationship between me, your Master, and you, my servant, put yourself in your proper place, and learn kneeling service."

"Ah???!!!" Hua Mengjie was shocked and angry in her heart, but then she thought that she had done practically nothing this past month and had received many benefits from Chen Xuan, so she lowered her head again.

"Yes, Ma... Master!!" She understood the meaning of Chen Xuan's words, but even though she felt a bit humiliated now, for the sake of her Brother Qingfeng, she had no choice but to agree.

"Anyway... you're just talking. I... I'll just endure you for a while longer!" she comforted herself.

"Today, I've had some new clothes custom-made for you. From now on, don't wear those ragged clothes of yours."

"Ah? My clothes are ragged?!"

Hua Mengjie looked at her precious clothes on her body with some disbelief and asked Chen Xuan blankly.

"How is it that in just three months, you've forgotten the first clause of the contract?! My custom-making clothes for you is naturally for your own good!" Chen Xuan feigned anger.

"Yes, Master, thank you, Master!"

"Mm, now go try them on. The items are right here, take them," Chen Xuan said, handing a large bag to Hua Mengjie.

"Yes!"

Hua Mengjie took the large bag of clothes to her room, opened it, and immediately her face turned crimson.

"Ho-how are they like this! The clothes are beautiful... but they're too... sensual! The Materials are indeed all top-notch Materials, but how... how can these be worn!"

"But if I don't do this, Brother Qingfeng won't be able to Breakthrough his cultivation..." Hua Mengjie stared at the clothes in front of her, a strange light flashing in her eyes.

Finally, Hua Mengjie gently pushed open the antique-style wardrobe door and chose a set of exquisite Chinese-style maid attire from within.

She carefully put it on, the thin silk clothing fitting her body like a second skin.

Her full figure appeared even more prominent and shapely under the clothing, seemingly about to burst forth, while also exuding a unique charm.

The delicate silk fabric shimmered with a soft glow in the light, further accentuating her graceful curves to the fullest, making one unable to help but be captivated.
