Chapter 17 is all about this plate of vinegar-wrapped dumplings.
"It's too much trouble to brush off so much dirt when using different colors..."
As evening fell, Lin Yuyan lay on her computer chair in her room, holding her phone in both hands, looking like a salted fish that had lost its dreams.
After returning home from "Where the Stars Are", she didn't get a proper rest. Instead, she fell into a frenzied, revenge-style gaming spree.
Writing novels and all that else had been completely forgotten by her. Unless some ferocious beast suddenly attacked, she was prepared to stay home and play video games all day long for the next few days.
"Knock knock knock—"
Then came a clear, cool but respectful young girl's voice: "Miss Lin, dinner is ready."
"Here it comes!"
Lin Yuyan responded loudly without looking up, but her gaze remained fixed on her phone screen.
She walked out of the bedroom with her head down, looking at her phone screen.
"Thank you for your hard work, Chen Jin."
Lin Yuyan, who was jungling with both hands, casually asked, "You must be tired after buying so much stuff?"
Actually, she was a little touched when she heard that Su Chenjin had prepared dinner. After all, this young girl had taken the initiative to do housework and cook as soon as she moved in, and even went out shopping by herself in the afternoon.
In contrast, I, who spent the whole afternoon playing games in my room, am basically a shut-in.
However, having such a maid sister to take care of him might make his future life even more colorful.
"It's alright, actually." Su Chenjin's voice came from the front. "I just went out to buy some clothes and some simple daily necessities. For heavier items like groceries and rice, I used a food delivery app to have them delivered to my door, so I didn't carry too many heavy things."
"That's good. Use delivery whenever possible, and don't overwork yourself..."
The two chatted casually along the way, with Lin Yuyan looking down at her phone the entire time, while Su Chenjin walked ahead. Upon arriving in the living room, Lin Yuyan sat down at the dining table.
"Phew—finally all my stamina from several games is gone, that feels great..."
However, I haven't finished claiming all the rewards from the event shop. It's all those guys at "Where the Stars Are"'s fault for wasting my time farming the event. But thankfully, several events have just started, so if I use some stamina potions now, I'll have plenty of time.
Keep up the good work tomorrow and make sure to catch up on the missed schedule!
Lin Yuyan turned off her phone screen with satisfaction and turned her attention to the dinner on the table.
"Hmm... shall we have red bean porridge and grilled sausage tonight? That's a rather strange combination..."
As she spoke, Lin Yuyan looked up at the table and noticed Su Chenjin's clothes.
In an instant, Lin Yuyan froze completely, her eyes wide open—
Because at this moment, Su Chenjin had changed into a navy blue Lolita dress.
The ribbons intertwined, spreading out like blooming night-blooming flowers, and the cuffs and collar were gathered just right, making the girl's already slender figure appear even more petite and adorable.
At the same time, she was wearing a pinafore hat, and her long blue hair was styled into a princess braid at the back.
This... isn't this the magical girl costume the protagonist wears after transforming in the novel I wrote?!
Coupled with Su Chenjin's petite stature, exactly like in the novel, and that aloof face that seemed to imply everyone owed her a million dollars...
It's beyond cosplay; it's like the protagonist from my book is standing right in front of me!
Lin Yuyan was stunned on the spot.
This is certainly one of Cheng Qi's strategies.
This afternoon, while shopping at that clothing store, I happened to see this dress. Cheng Qi immediately realized that it bore a striking resemblance to the clothes worn by the protagonist in the novel about the great eunuch.
Upon realizing this, Cheng Qi also thought of ways to further gain the favor of the chief eunuch. So she bought the outfit without hesitation and dressed up carefully.
Seeing Lin Yuyan's stunned expression, Cheng Qi couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
Hmph, you eunuch, seeing the character you created come to life right in front of you, you must be so moved you're about to cry, right? Taking advantage of this opportunity, tonight I'll hypnotize you even more deeply, so you'll have no choice but to obediently sit in front of the computer and type for me!
Su Chenjin tilted her head slightly, her blue eyes quietly gazing at Lin Yuyan. Then, she gently lifted her skirt with both hands and spun halfway around in place:
"Miss Lin, is it pretty?"
"It's beautiful...it's so beautiful..."
Lin Yuyan's voice trembled. She swallowed hard, her gaze fixed on the dress: "You... bought this dress?"
"Yes, I saw this outfit at the clothing store today. The sales assistant said it's a famous magical girl's outfit. I thought it was really nice, so I bought it and brought it back for you to see..."
Halfway through her sentence, Lin Yuyan suddenly jumped up from her chair, walked over to Su Chenjin in a few steps, and grabbed Su Chenjin's hands.
"This is it! This is it! This outfit... I absolutely love it!!!"
Lin Yuyan's eyes lit up.
"Chen Jin... From now on, please wear this outfit every day when you cook for me! No! Even if you don't cook, as long as you're home, please wear it! I'll pay for ten identical sets for you to change into!"
"…………??"
What's wrong with you?
Su Chenjin felt a chill rise from the bottom of her heart.
Lin Yuyan's current situation is a bit abnormal; he's completely like a perverted freak who's gone mad and is seeing his own fantasy materialize!
I just wanted to touch her heart... but this reaction far exceeded my expectations.
"Miss Lin... please, please let go, please calm down..."
Su Chenjin began to break out in a cold sweat.
"I'm very calm! Hehehe..."
Lin Yuyan didn't let go, but instead took a step closer, almost pressing her body against Su Chenjin's.
"Chen Jin... let me stick to it... hehehe... the main character... alive... hehehe..."
...This is not a good sign.
If she continued to let the chief eunuch run rampant like this, she would feel as if she were about to be overthrown and then pounded on the ground.
Moreover, her body was too small compared to Lin Yuyan's, and the other party was a magical girl... If she did something reckless, she wouldn't even have the power to resist.
"Miss Lin...wouldn't it be better to have dinner first?"
"Dinner... it's not too late to wait a while, let me enjoy Chen Jin a little longer..."
Damn, my drool is dripping onto my clothes.
Su Chenjin's eyes gradually showed disgust. Finally, she couldn't bear it any longer and uttered the hypnotic command—
"The Grand Eunuch, Crescent Moon".
