…
Soon, a night passed.
The next day, when it was still dawn, Shen Ye was awakened by the sound of tables and chairs being moved and glass breaking.
Climbing out of bed speechlessly, Shen Ye put on his clothes, held a cigarette in his mouth, and pushed open the bedroom door.
In the living room, Roberta was busy cleaning up the glass fragments on the floor. She had just accidentally broken a water cup.
"You will be responsible for damaging personal property, Miss Maid." Shen Ye lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and said.
Roberta turned his head and looked at him, a hint of embarrassment flashed across his cold face.
"I'll go out and buy it later," she said.
Then he turned around and continued to sweep the floor with a broom he found from somewhere.
Then, she accidentally bumped into the water cup on the coffee table again and broke another one.
Roberta was stunned for a moment, looking at the fragments on the ground, and she fell silent.
"What a failure I am!" she thought to herself. "I can't even do such a simple thing."
"Let me do it, maid. If you keep going on like this, I won't even have a cup to drink water from." Looking at Roberta who was standing there in a daze, Shen Ye finally couldn't hold it in any longer. If he asked her to continue cleaning, he would have to use a bowl to drink water.
"No need." Hearing Shen Ye's words, Roberta raised his head and shouted at him, "I will pay for the broken cup. I don't need your help."
"But this is my home." Shen Ye pointed to the room.
"But my young master lives here. As a maid, I should provide a clean environment for him." Roberta looked at Shen Ye coldly and said.
Looking at the maid who was so persistent, Shen Ye sighed inwardly, then shrugged and said, "Then please."
After saying that, he threw the cigarette butt to the ground under Roberta's dissatisfied eyes, and then closed the bedroom door.
Then, a snapping sound was heard.
Fell again...
…
Half an hour had passed when Shen Ye left the bedroom again.
At this time, Roberta was not in the living room, probably because he had gone out.
"It's really... miserable!"
Looking at the only remaining cup on the coffee table, Shen Ye smiled bitterly and shook his head, then said to comfort himself:
"But that's good. Now when Revy and the others come again, I have a reason not to pour water for them."
Then he walked to the door of the room where Garcia lived and knocked gently.
"Are you awake? Garcia."
However, there was no response. The little boy was still sleeping, exhausted by last night's experience.
So Shen Ye walked into the bathroom and began to take care of his personal hygiene.
After washing up, Shen Ye returned to the living room, sat on the sofa, and watched TV bored.
Of course, his mind was not on the TV show, but on sorting out the thoughts that he had not finished sorting out last night.
"Speaking of which, the plot is completely out of control."
"Who would have thought that Roberta would clean my house... Bah, why am I suddenly thinking about this?"
"But it's quite interesting. That's Roberta, the woman known as the Human Terminator!"
Once the train of thought goes astray, it cannot be changed back completely. Shen Ye simply gave up trying to sort it out. Anyway, the plot changes were too drastic. There was no point in thinking about it now. It was better to take it one step at a time.
Thinking of this, Shen Ye simply focused on watching TV.
About half an hour later, the door of the room opened.
Shen Ye turned his head to take a look and saw that it was Roberta who had returned. She was holding a large bag of food in her left hand and a plastic bag full of things in her right hand.
"Isn't he up yet?" Roberta asked after putting the bag on the coffee table.
Shen Ye shook his head: "No."
Then he added with a smile: "He must have been scared by you last night, maybe he is still having a nightmare now!"
Roberta knew that Shen Ye was teasing her, but because of her personality, she didn't want to argue with Shen Ye. After snorting coldly, she rushed into the kitchen.
Watching Roberta enter the kitchen, the smile on Shen Ye's face disappeared, and he suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
Sure enough, the next second, he heard a clanging sound in the kitchen.
"Well, my kitchen is starting to suffer too." Shen Ye muttered weakly.
As it turned out, Roberta was just a qualified warrior, not a qualified maid at all.
After busying herself in the kitchen for a while, she brought out several plates of black stuff.
"Is this what you give your young master to eat?" he asked, looking at the thing on the plate that was probably bread.
"Although it doesn't look that good, it should be edible." Roberta said expressionlessly.
"That's for you, Miss Soldier." Shen Ye shook his head in disgust.
Then he counted the plates on the table and found that there were three plates in total. Then he asked again: "Can I have a share too?"
"Of course." Roberta nodded: "Although I am reluctant, but since the young master lives with you, you are included."
"It's really my honor!" Shen Ye pinched his eyebrows. He had a headache.
"But I don't want to eat this. I'm afraid of poisoning." He stood up, put away all the plates, and walked towards the kitchen.
"What are you going to do?" Roberta stood in front of him.
"Cook." Shen Ye said, and walked around Roberta.
…
Facts once again prove that Shen Ye has a talent for cooking.
When Shen Ye brought out the fried eggs that were golden on both sides and had a sugary core, Roberta suddenly felt a strong sense of frustration.
"Even those chefs probably can't cook better than him!" Roberta thought, clenching his fists.
"Okay, go wake Garcia up, it's time for breakfast."
After Shen Ye placed the dinner plates, he spoke to Roberta, who had been staring at the plates.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Garcia came out of the room.
"Good morning, sir." Roberta greeted Garcia when he saw him.
But Garcia ignored her and just shouted to Shen Ye: "Good morning, Shen."
"Well, good morning!" Shen Ye waved his hand casually as a response.
This made Roberta even more uncomfortable. She clenched her fists again. If she could, she would like to punch Shen Ye in the face...
Soon, Garcia finished washing up, and the toiletries were bought by Roberta.
Sitting at the dining table, Garcia looked at the exquisite breakfast and looked at Roberta in disbelief.
Although he still felt a little bothered by Robert's behavior last night, he couldn't help but ask, "Roberta, did you do this?"
Roberta shook his head expressionlessly: "No..."
Suddenly, she remembered something. She hadn't asked Shen Ye's name the whole morning.
But her actions still made Garcia understand one thing.
"Shen, you are much better than Roberta."
Then, the maid clenched her fists for the third time.
