Hearing the joke-like inquiry from her eldest daughter, Ehara Reika fell silent and did not give her usual concise and straightforward answer.
"..."
There was no pause in her hand washing the eldest lady's hair. Her gentle and skillful movements made the girl in front of her look like a ragdoll cat being groomed, and she gently narrowed her eyes.
After cleaning the foam on the girl's hair, she took some cotton wool, put some shower gel on it and rubbed it.
As the foam on the velvet started to overflow, she said calmly: "I'm just the maid of the eldest lady, I don't have such unnecessary thoughts..."
"Li Xiang..."
When Nishimiya Chisa heard the girl's words, she turned around with a distressed expression and grabbed the little maid's foamy palm. She said in a serious tone: "Just like I understand you, you should also understand me. This sentence will It makes me feel bad, so... don’t say such things again in the future, okay?”
"I'm sorry, Miss, Reika made a mistake..."
"Yes, you made a mistake, so I'm going to punish you now..."
She looked at her most trusted little maid with a serious expression and said forcefully: "From now on, Lixiang must also have the right to pursue love. This is my punishment and my order!"
The clear and powerful voice echoed in the empty bathroom, but the humid and hazy water vapor that filled the air could not block the sincere eyes of the direct heir of the Nishimiya family.
Ehara Reika felt the determination in her eldest daughter's words, pursed her lips slightly, and replied with a pun: "As long as the eldest daughter can grow old hand in hand with the one she loves, Reika will be satisfied..."
「……」
Nishimiya Chisa understood what her maid said and said with some helplessness: "Last time you said that as long as I listen to your command and act, there is a 70% probability of making Zhenyou-kun's heart beat faster. ..”
"I don't know whether Zhenyou-kun's heartbeat accelerated in the end. Anyway, my own heartbeat accelerated, and he finally discovered it..."
After she finished speaking, she squeezed the little maid's palm and said with a smile, "Does Lixiang make miscalculations sometimes?"
"Yes, last time I misjudged Master Nakano's understanding of the eldest lady, which caused the eldest lady's words and deeds to be somewhat different from usual. Only then did Master Nakano see the clues..."
As Ehara Reika spoke, she let go of her eldest daughter's hand, and used the cotton in her hand to create shower gel foam on her pink and white back...
"Then Reika, do you think I should invite Mayu-kun tomorrow?"
Nishimiya Chisa turned around and let the little maid do it...
On weekdays, she basically cleans herself, but occasionally she lets Reika rub her back.
After all, it is not convenient to clean the back. It is inevitable that some areas will be missed when cleaning by yourself. It can be more convenient if someone helps to rub the back...
"That's right. The probability of Master Nakano rejecting the eldest lady is less than 10%. The environment of the fireworks display is indeed a good place for young men and women to deepen their relationship..."
"Then... Reika, why don't you go and invite Mayu for me?" Nishimiya Chisa tilted her head slightly, looking a little shy.
"Okay, I will prepare the viewing position in advance for the eldest lady..." The little maid said expressionlessly as always, and she did not stop washing her hands.
"Well, then tomorrow..."
"I will follow the eldest lady secretly. At this time, it is more beautiful for the two of us to be alone..."
"But in this case, wouldn't Reika..."
"Miss, there is no need to worry. As long as you marry Master Nakano, Reika will be Master Nakano's maid."
"Right..."
"Miss, you can start tomorrow..."
The master and servant chatted about tomorrow's plans, and after a while, Ehara Reika formulated a specific method of action.
Then Chisa Nishimiya simply took a dip for a while, and in less than five minutes, she changed her clothes and came to the study with Reika.
She took it and picked it up
He took a sip of the hot tea that had just been prepared on the desk in the study, adjusted to working mode, looked at Lixiang with a cold face, and asked lightly: "Have you finished cleaning out the remaining direct cadres of my father?"
"As of yesterday, the high-level officials of the consortium who once belonged to the direct lineage of the previous head of the family have generally completed the cleansing through dispatching, overt and covert promotions, and control."
After Ehara Reika finished speaking, she turned to look at the file cabinet that was as tall as one person behind her.
Although the files in the filing cabinet are densely packed, they look very neat.
Without any hesitation, she unlocked the combination lock, took out a document, unfolded it directly on the desk, pointed to the content on it and said:
"It is recorded in this document that all the people who were loyal to the previous head of the family, either openly or secretly, have been dealt with. The rest are those that Reika can judge and fight for. They are not particularly loyal cadres... The eldest lady can review them directly."
"I'll leave it all to you to decide..."
Nishimiya Chisa didn't look at the document in front of her, she closed it directly and said in a cold tone: "Don't care about the means or losses, the pain of digging out the cancer is something you must go through!"
The girl's decisive words echoed in the study room, and her face showed no trace of the tenderness of the love between a son and a daughter just now.
"Yes, Miss."
The little maid put the files directly back into the filing cabinet and re-locked the filing cabinet carefully.
Not only are there protective measures on the filing cabinets, but the study room where the two usually work is equipped with the latest cutting-edge security measures from various consortiums.
Except for the fact that security measures were turned off when Nakano Mayu came as a guest, they were turned on 24 hours a day at other times.
"Shashasha..."
Nishimiya Chisa lowered her head to look at the documents on the table. The sound of the pen in her hand scratching the paper as she wrote resounded throughout the study.
Time passed by, because she told Lixiang in advance the reason why she would not rest today, so she kept immersed in processing various documents with the help of Lixiang.
"Miss, it's already meal time. Lunch is ready. Please take a lunch break first."
Suddenly, the little maid took out the vibrating mobile phone, looked at it, and said softly.
"Um...ok..."
Hearing this, Nishimiya Chisa shook her sore palms, then raised her head and twisted her stiff neck.
"Do you need to arrange a massage before nap later, ma'am?"
The little maid looked at her slightly tired face and asked calmly.
"No need, I'm not that fragile yet..."
After she finished speaking, she stood up and walked out.
Unless there are any special circumstances, she always eats on the second floor terrace.
The two masters and servants walked one behind the other, showing calmness and elegance as they walked.
"Hey Reika, do you want to ask Nanako about Mayu-kun's arrangements for tomorrow first? If he already has arrangements for tomorrow, wouldn't it be embarrassing for him to invite him rashly?"
In front of the entrance to the terrace, Miss Nishimiya turned her head and asked with a worried look.
At this time, the coldness on the girl's pretty face was completely gone, and the worry about gain and loss made Ehara Reika pause, and then said directly:
"Miss Nanako may not have an accurate answer. After all, he is not Master Nakano himself. Just now, Master Nakano contacted the young lady and said that he would come over in the afternoon. I have already given a welcome reply to the young lady. Reika will secretly confirm that Master Nakano will be here tomorrow. Itinerary..."
"Eh?"
Nishimiya Chisa looked at the mobile phone handed over by the little maid with some surprise. On it was the Line chat window between her and Nakano Mayu, and Reika had already replied with a welcome message.
"Are you coming in the afternoon? Isn't that coming soon?"
"Yes, he set off from Yamada Jiro's residence, and he was accompanied by Yamada Jiro and his cousin Amane Ayase..."
"Then...I'll stop eating and go change some clothes first..."
"There is no need to worry, Miss. Judging from the travel time, Master Nakano will arrive just after you take a nap.
It’s not too late to change..."
