CHAPTER 5

Become a Maid

Startled, An Chuxia looks at Han Qilu. Who knows whether he’s saying these things jokingly? He deliberately wants to upset her.

Naive!

An Chuxia adjusts to the moment. She slightly nods and smiles at everyone. “I hope to be good friends. I will help with whatever is within my capacity.”

Stars flash in the girls’ eyes as they stare at An Chuxia and Han Qilu. They realize the quickest way to be with the young master is by being his maid!

Seeing how his plan to slander Chuxia failed, Han Qilu enters the College unhappily.

Steward Han pushes girls out of the way so An Chuxia can pass. He says, “Miss An, you’re obviously young master Han’s future mistress, how can you be his maid? If this gets to the Lady and Master, I don’t know how to die!”

An Chuxia shrugs and holds the steward’s shoulder. “You don’t have to say anything to ayi and shushu. Anyway, the young master is just being mischievous. And… I can do what young master Han wants. So, if this makes him happy, I’ll consider this my contribution.”

Looking at An Chuxia’s relaxed disposition, steward Han shakes his head. “Well, since you said it… Let’s go and meet the principal in his office. If they want you to do anything, come get me at the principal’s office and I’ll do it for you.”

An Chuxia nods, but she vows never to trouble the steward. She was raised to do a lot of work. Doing some maid duties shouldn’t be difficult. Moreover, those girls seem to be friendly to her. It shouldn’t be difficult at all.

As she enters Stein, she quickly understands what makes it a ‘Royal College’. The architectural design of the building is a mix of European and American: seemingly the same style, but different, after a closer look. For example, the main building has a steeple, but the building next to it has a dome. Much to An Chuxia’s surprise, a huge ancient clock stands in the middle of the white building.

The bell rings. A group of white pigeons ascend to the sky, marking time passing.

Did she ascend to heaven?

“That… Miss An.” Steward Han sees An Chuxia’s expression of awe. He really didn’t want to disturb her but he didn’t want her getting into trouble for being late for her meeting with the principal.

“Yes!” She replies to the steward, embarrassed by her own reaction. “Sorry, it’s too beautiful here.”

She’s going to be attending classes here. Her dream is coming true.

“Oh, come with me.” Steward Han leads her.

Soon, they arrive at the teaching building next to a special political building.

“Is this Miss An?” A kindly middle-aged man greets her by the door. “Sure enough, such as her name, An Chuxia. People who like looking at the early summer scenery are quiet and beautiful.”

“You win the prize.” An Chuxia says, patronizing the principal.

“Principal, about our problem,” Steward Han reminds him.

Steward Han nods. “I am also interested in this, so I will accompany you and Miss An.”

“Where … .” Both the housekeeper and the principal are polite to each other. She listens to the principal’s speech as he boasts to her the legendary ‘learning atmosphere’ as they head to class A.
