Ai Mi only let go of my arm once I brought her out of the elevator.
“Why can’t you take some initiative as a manservant!” Ai Mi said dissatisfied, “Why can’t you support me if you see the elevator shaking!”
How was it shaking! Why can’t you admit it was fear caused by your acrophobia!
It’s fine, I don’t really have the right to talk about her fears. Besides, being kind to your younger sister is a matter of course.
So I smiled and agreed with her: “Alright, alright, I’ll pay more attention next time.”
Ai Mi took one step back as if she met a monster. She stared at my face in bewilderment.
“What’s wrong with you? Why aren’t you arguing with me? Did you do something wrong? Were you bought over by my mother?”
Who was bought over by your mom! If I accepted Ai ShuQiao’s condition, I would have long left this city!
“Nothing complicated.” I smiled, “Adults have to take care of children!”
Ai Mi puffed up her cheeks when she heard me call her a child.
Ha, she looks even more like a kid! The class leader would only make that expression when she was in kindergarten!
By the way, compared to usual, Ai Mi’s outfit is more in tune with normal people!
She was wearing a gown with dolphin patterns along with a white pair of sandals revealing her ten cute pink toes. Her dazzling golden hair was adorned with two bright red hair ornaments that she used to make two ponytails. Other than the small Hermes purse she had around her shoulder, she didn’t have any other luxurious goods that would give away her identity.
Because it was a limited edition Hermes bag, and because she didn’t really purposely show off the logo, it didn’t really attract any attention. In contrast, I felt the red string with a small bell wrapped around her left ankle was the highlight compared to the crappy expensive bag.
What exactly is it? Was it a prop they forgot to remove after filming? Or was Peng TouSi afraid of Ai Mi getting lost, so he put it on her ankle like she was a dog or cat?
Whatever the case, I could find Ai Mi’s general position even when I closed my eyes.
It was pretty convenient as it lowered Ai Mi’s chance of getting lost! Good job Peng TouSi!
“Recently, I’ve been getting used to it...”
Ai Mi pushed up the pair of sunglasses that was slipping down the bridge of her nose. Her blues eyes that were revealed for an instant did not really attract the attention of the people around us —— Dong Shan city is gradually becoming a bigger tourist location, so it’s not strange to occasionally see a foreigner.
But a married Chinese couple quietly began a conversation behind us:
“Mixed children are so cute! It’s like they came out of a drawing! Hubby, how about I give birth to a mixed child for you?”
Her husband was pissed: ” —— You dare!!!!”
“What did you say you were getting used to?” I asked curiously.
“I realized not many people from the Celestial Empire recognize me. Also, the males are extremely shy, even more shy than American girls, they don’t even have the guts to greet me... I like it, it’s great when strangers don’t bother you.”
Ai Mi said as she stretched her arms above her head.
Compared to the West, it seems younger Chinese people still like Japanese or Korean music more. You also have an entirely different personality compared to when you are in front of a camera. (Your gaze of contempt would definitely make your fans greatly disappointed)
Actually, Chinese guys are not as shy as you think. The main barrier would still be bodyguards like Peng TouSi and their poor English, right? Because they don’t know that you are fluent in Chinese, so they don’t want to embarrass themselves with their poor English!
I reached out towards Ai Mi, “Do you want to remove your sunglasses?”
Ai Mi hesitated, and quickly took off her sunglasses and passed it to me.
“Much better!” She breathed a long sigh of relief, “I hate trying to be secretive! But... if someone harasses me, you have to take responsibility and chase them away!”
“Leave it to me!”
I put the sunglasses in the breast pocket of my shirt. Then, I used my menacing gaze and swept the surroundings. All the customers around me and even the cashiers felt my gaze. One cashier even anxiously locked up the jewelry case.
I didn’t eat breakfast today morning, so my stomach was grumbling non-stop when I saw the dining area.
“How embarrassing!” Ai Mi admonished, “As my manservant, even if you’re hungry...”
Her stomach began to grumble like mines before she finished her sentence.
“You...” Ai Mi’s face was flushed red, there was clearly no one around us but she still wanted to clear her name, “I already told you to stop making noises! Why is your stomach still grumbling!”
I did not retort her, instead, I took responsibility, “Yes, yes, I’ll be careful, but I’m hungry. How about we get something to eat?”
Ai Mi praised me for acting as a scapegoat, but when she heard we were going to eat here, she feigned to be reserved and criticized:
“It looks very low-level, would sanitation be a problem? But since the manservant is hungry, I won’t be heartless as the owner and I might as well feed you some fodder!”
You were the one who wanted to come! You came straight to the sixth floor without even buying anything! Also, do you treat all manservants of your household as beasts and feed them fodder? If I’m a beast, then you’re the sister of a beast! Let me see you not eat anything I buy!
I first went to the cashier to buy a dining card. At the same time, I let Ai Mi choose whatever she wants.
Ai Mi frowned and took a stroll around the food stalls. The vendors weren’t sure if she understood Chinese so they didn’t really try to sell her anything. One of them even said an awkward harro.
Ai Mi sat down at a table in a fit of anger with the misunderstanding that everyone was xenophobic.
“Hmph, it all seems like inferior foods. I came here to feed the manservant, who said I wanted to eat? You can go and buy some fodder!”
She urged as she sent glances at a cold drinks cooler.
I understood without being told and bought a bottle of chilled cola. I also bought a steaming hot portion of takoyaki when I passed by the ‘Taiwanese Takoyaki’ stall.
Ai Mi was shocked when I placed the food in front of her.
“Didn’t I say I’m not eating? This ——” She was unable to take her eyes off the cola, and the aroma of the takoyaki incited her appetite.
“Cola is American and the takoyaki is Taiwanese.” I reminded Ai Mi, “Neither place is within the Celestial Empire’s jurisdiction, so you don’t have to label them as inferior foods of the Celestial Empire!”
I said as I turned around to go buy more food. As expected, I heard the sound of the carton of takoyaki being opened.
“Wait!” Ai Mi shouted in a fluster, “Help me open the cola first! It’s not like it’s enriched uranium, why do they make these so hard to open!”
I went back again to help Ai Mi open the cola. Due to the fact she was messing around with it for a while (she almost used her teeth to bite it), it caused a lot of gas and cola leaked out from the bottle after it was opened.
Ai Mi quickly guzzled down the cola and had a satisfied expression. She hugged the cola like a small raccoon who got its hands on some corn. She gazed left and right with paranoia to check if Peng TouSi would rush over to grab her cola.
