My Swap Life Game

Chapter 33 Afternoon Tea and Traditional Aristocrats

As Lu Xing expected, Annie's math class did not go beyond his scope of study, and was not even at the high school level. She only learned some arithmetic transformations, summation of arithmetic series, and some geometric constructions used in drawing magic circles.

Lu Xing was concentrating on the class. After it was over, the system prompt popped up:
"You completed a math class as Miss Anne and received a 200-point evaluation. Reward: experience points, and Anne will receive the math knowledge you demonstrated in this class."

Lu Xing was cheered up. Two hundred experience points was almost a task!

It also improved Annie's math knowledge, and she will be so happy when she comes back.

"Is today's class over?"

After the teacher left, Lu Xing asked the maid with a smile.

Catherine nodded slightly. The knowledge displayed by this mysterious soul in front of her in the math class not only surprised her, but also amazed the teacher, who praised Miss Anne's math skills, saying that she was good enough to teach at the Imperial College.

Lu Xing waited for a while, but the system did not prompt him to complete the novice experience task, so he could only ask Catherine: "What other activities does Annie have in the afternoon?"

It was only around three in the afternoon, and the noble lady's day was not over yet.

Catherine said calmly, "After class every day, Miss Anne would go to Miss Meryl and the others for afternoon tea, or go for a walk in and out of the city, or practice magic and chat with Phyllis. But considering your ignorance of this world, I advise you not to go anywhere and stay at home to learn more knowledge."

After listening to her, Lu Xing asked her, "Is there a place to practice magic in the castle? I'm not very familiar with magic and I want to practice it."

Catherine frowned and looked up at him: "You use the magic power in Miss Anne's body to practice magic?"

"What is the problem?"

"I refuse your request. You don't know magic. Using magic recklessly may cause magic disorder and hurt Annie!"

"Katherine!"

Lu Xing gave the order directly: "Take me to practice magic!"

He was no longer a rookie from another world, and the maid in front of him could not easily deceive him.

Lu Xing had learned in the alchemy course that magic disorder is unlikely to occur in a low magic power state. With the magic power in Annie's body, there would be no problem as long as he didn't use more than half of it.

Catherine was silent for a while, and seemed to be struggling, but finally she obeyed.

But he said strangely: "You are not my master, I am just following Miss Anne's orders!"

"?"

Lu Xing didn't know what the maid was doing, so he could only answer with the old saying: "I am Annie."

Catherine led the way with her head down, helping Miss Anne into the carriage, and soon arrived at an open area west of the castle.

Lu Xing asked the maid about some precautions regarding magic, and relying on the remaining memories in Annie's body, he was soon able to cast magic in a very professional manner.

Annie majored in light and wind magic, which are variants of sky and earth magic. Lu Xing didn't dare to try too much. He just threw a few light balls and wind blades and created a few small whirlwinds.

Just as he was trying magic with great interest, a maid hurried in to report and told Catherine a piece of news.

"Annie's friend is coming to have afternoon tea with me?"

Lu Xing stopped and looked at the tall maid standing in front of him.

"Yes."

Catherine explained expressionlessly, "Miss Meryl and Miss Renee came together. One of them is the daughter of Count Perrick, and the other's father is a high-ranking knight of the Swinton family. Because they have a good relationship with Miss Anne, they came to visit without making an appointment in advance."

Lu Xing thought for a moment and sighed, "After all, we can't avoid Annie's afternoon tea time. Please ask someone to prepare it. I'll change my clothes and go meet them later."

Catherine said: "It's amazing that you knew to change your clothes."

"After all, not everyone is as stupid as you."

Lu Xing replied to the maid.

Catherine did not respond. She told the maids to prepare clothes for Lu Xing, led the two young ladies to the garden, apologized on behalf of Miss Anne, and said she would be there soon.

Lu Xing got on the carriage and went back to the house to change into another set of Anne's dresses, a light green short skirt with a wide-brimmed round hat. Her long golden hair was not tied up but scattered behind her head, which was very suitable for playing in the garden.

Soon after, he met Anne's two little friends who were waiting in the garden.

"Annie~" Two noble ladies wearing wide skirts and beautiful jewelry came up to us happily.

The maid helped Lu Xing out of the car and whispered, "I hope you remember that you are Anne, not a man!"

"Thanks for reminding."

Lu Xing got off the car calmly. After being a noble lady for a day, he had gained some experience.

Meryl and Renee came over together, happily holding his hands and talking about some interesting things that happened to them today.

It was nothing more than what classes were taken and what fun things were happening in the city, and Lu Xing just dealt with it with a few vague words.

Then they pulled him into the flowers, where a large parasol had been set up. Lu Xing sat down with them and, in the warm afternoon sunshine, happily tasted the tea carefully brewed from tea leaves from the southern part of the empire.

Three young noble ladies, dressed in exquisite clothes and jewelry, were elegantly enjoying afternoon tea among the flowers. The maids and servants who saw this scene from afar could not help but cast envious glances at them.

The real noble lady has long been accustomed to the life of being superior to others.

The fake noble lady felt a little embarrassed, so after drinking her tea, she went into the castle with them to rest.

I didn't do anything else, and I couldn't do anything even if I wanted to.

But they didn't know how to talk, and suddenly they both blushed and asked Lu Xing quietly: "Annie, do you have someone you like?"

"..."

It turns out that little girls also talk about handsome guys!

But Lu Xing is a handsome guy and has no interest in this.

Meryl whispered, "Recently, Gerard seems to want to pursue me, but I didn't agree. He is good-looking and his family is similar to mine, but I heard that he is not traditional. His father and mother have a lot of lovers. I can't stand it!"

Lu Xing, who didn't want to get involved in this topic, was shocked when he heard this. No, you nobles are so extravagant?

Renee covered her mouth with her white silk-gloved hands, smiled and whispered, "You are traditional, but that may not be the case after marriage. Many people say they are traditional, but they have more lovers than anyone else!"

Meryl hesitated, then shook her head and asked her, "What about you?"

"I am also traditional. I will not allow my husband to have a lover outside!"

Then, the two of them looked at Lu Xing and said in unison: "The Swinton family is the most conservative traditionalist in the North!"

"I'm not interested in that."

Lu Xing followed their conversation and remembered that Anne had said in the letter that Swinton was a traditional family.

The two noble ladies chatted for a while about the handsome guy they met recently, and at four o'clock in the afternoon, they said goodbye and left with satisfaction.

After they left, Lu Xing asked the maid, "What is the traditional school? Most nobles have lovers?"

Catherine said coldly: "Miss Anne is innocent and lovely, and she never shows any affection to boys. She will listen to her parents and marry the husband her parents find for her. She will only sleep with her husband for the rest of her life! Don't taint Miss Anne with those dirty things!"

Lu Xing was shocked. Isn't it a system translation problem? This is too explicit.

He thought for a moment and asked, "If Anne encountered what happened today, how would she answer her friends?"

"I'm not Miss Anne. I don't know how she would talk to her friends, but I know that she will not be defiled by these obscene things!"

Catherine said firmly.

Lu Xing thought about it and decided to mention this matter in his letter to Anne, curious about what she would do.

Five p.m.

Almost immediately after he finished writing the letter, in the blink of an eye, Lu Xing returned to Earth.

"Annie, I'll take you to dinner! I'll let you taste the Chinese food on Earth and see how it's different from what you eat in the North."

"..."

Lu Xing stood there. Xiao Yu, who was holding his hand, couldn't pull him away. Finally, she realized something was wrong, turned around, and met his eyes.
