Sister, can I become a maid too?

Chapter 115 Welcome Back, My Little Maid

Jiang Yubai was stunned when he saw Lin Jianxia lying lazily on the bed.

"Um... I didn't hear you clearly," he asked cautiously, "What did you want me to do again?"

Lin Jianxia on the bed was moaning softly:

"Give me a massage, give me a massage."

She buried her head in the pillow, and her voice came out muffled:

"Feeding...is that too much to ask?"

Jiang Yu hesitated for a moment before replying:

"Not excessive..."

It's definitely not excessive, but....

He couldn't help but look at Lin Jianxia on the bed again.

The girl was lying face down on the pillow, wearing a light summer school uniform on her upper body. Her jacket had been taken off for convenience, revealing her soft shoulders and a section of fair arm.

Her cheek, slightly turned to the side, rested against the pillow, a few loose strands of hair softly framing her ears, and her ponytail lazily draped down her neck.

Following down her spine, the hem of her school uniform gathered slightly, outlining the girl's slender waist.

Further down, her long, slender legs were pressed together, her two small feet had kicked off their slippers, her ankles were delicate, and her toes unconsciously pressed against the bed sheet, occasionally swaying slightly.

But Lin Jianxia, ​​are you sure this is a request?

Not a reward? Not a reward?

Jiang Yubai reluctantly suppressed the urge to tickle those fair soles and said helplessly:

"Hey, at least you have some experience massaging Lin Tingwan, but I've never tried it before. How am I supposed to do this?"

Lin Jianxia, ​​who was lying on the bed, was silent for a few seconds before hesitantly speaking:

"You...you just need to massage me the way I did it."

Jiang Yubai chuckled upon hearing this. This girl must have made her request on a whim without considering the consequences.

He suppressed a laugh and deliberately dragged out the sound:

"Let me make this clear first: if it hurts or feels uncomfortable... don't blame me."

"Hey, hurry up and press it! Why are you talking so much?"

Seeing that the little hedgehog was bristling, Jiang Yubai didn't waste any more words.

"Okay, okay, okay."

He was about to step forward when he suddenly remembered something.

"Wait, one last question...where do I press?"

"My shoulders! Where else do you want me to massage?!"

It was just a shoulder after all...

Jiang Yubai put aside her inexplicable little regret, kicked off her shoes, and went to bed.

As he got closer, he realized that the girl had buried her head entirely in the pillow, with only her two little ears sticking out, which had turned a bright pink.

So you can be shy after all...

Jiang Yubai found it amusing but remained silent.

After all, what if you really piss this little hedgehog and it jumps up and bites you a couple of times?

But as soon as he got into bed, he discovered a very serious problem.

Lin Jianxia was lying face down on the bed, and he wanted to massage his shoulders with his hands, but it was really difficult to get into a comfortable position.

The only position I could think of was riding on this girl's back; that would be more comfortable.

...But thinking about it makes it impossible.

"Lin Jianxia, ​​what position did you use to massage me just now?" Jiang Yubai asked humbly, "That position was hard to get into."

A muffled voice came from inside the pillow:

"Why don't you just kneel down next to me? What's so difficult about it..."

Is that so?

Jiang Yubai tried to kneel down beside her as she instructed, and gently placed his hand on the girl's shoulder.

The person beneath him trembled slightly.

"Jiang... Jiang Yubai," Lin Jianxia's embarrassed and annoyed voice came, "You... at least tell me beforehand!"

You didn't tell me before you pressed the button on my phone...

"Okay, okay~"

Jiang Yubai verbally agreed, then removed his hands from her shoulders and drawled out his words.

"Excuse me, sir, is Master Jiang ready to serve you now?"

Lin Jianxia seemed to chuckle softly:

"Can."

Upon hearing the reply, Jiang Yubai reached out and put his hand back on the girl's shoulder, tentatively pressing it twice.

"Is this force okay?"

His reply was a pleasant nasal tone.

Having received a positive reply, Jiang Yubai felt relieved and began to take action.

Speaking of which, since I usually sit in the classroom all day long, my shoulder muscles inevitably ache.

He had tried it himself before, and when he put his hand on it, he always felt a hard, taut sensation, with muscles as taut as an iron plate.

When Lin Jianxia pressed her shoulder, even the part of her shoulder that she used to exert the most force on still had a warm and soft feel, which was transmitted warmly through her school uniform.

Sure enough... they say girls are made of water, and it seems they really are different.

Although he knew nothing about massage, Jiang Yubai imitated Lin Jianxia's massage technique quite well.

He gently massaged and pushed along the curves of her shoulders and neck with his palms, his fingertips moving along her shoulders, occasionally pausing on areas that were noticeably stiff, mimicking her previous circular massage movements.

Of course, it would be too difficult for him to master acupoints or techniques; he relies purely on memory and his strength depends entirely on his feel.

Oh, and Lin Jianxia's reaction too.

If it feels as comfortable as a pig grunting, then it means he's using the right amount of force and is in the right spot.

If your shoulders and neck involuntarily tense up slightly, or your breathing becomes heavier, it's probably because you've used too much force in your hands, and you need to relax quickly.

After pressing around his shoulders, Jiang Yubai still felt a little unsatisfied.

He thought for a moment, then tentatively began to speak:

"Um... how about I also offer a back massage service?"

Lin Jianxia turned her little face groggily, her voice still soft and sleepy:

"Then... then you're only allowed to knock, but not to touch anything else."

Seeing her like this, Jiang Yubai couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

No, is it really that comfortable? Looks like I do have some talent after all.

"Okay, okay, I'll just tap it a few times lightly."

He readily agreed.

After all, he wasn't shameless enough to take advantage of people under the guise of massage.

Throughout the entire process, he performed the shoulder massage in the most proper and orderly manner, never touching any areas that shouldn't have been touched.

The suggestion of a back massage wasn't meant to be anything special... it was just that I felt a bit unsatisfied.

Since I have such skills, it would be a waste not to use them all on you.jpg

Jiang Yubai changed his posture, clenched his fists, and gently tapped along the girl's back.

At first it was fine, but halfway through, every time he tapped, Lin Jianxia would let out a muffled but satisfied hum, which sounded extremely comfortable.

"Hey Lin Jianxia," he stopped, unable to resist complaining, "could you please not interfere with the massage therapist's work?"

Lin Jianxia was enjoying herself when she suddenly felt the movement on her back stop. She turned her head slightly, looking a little confused.

"Huh...what?"

Seeing that she seemed completely unaware that she was humming, Jiang Yubai was secretly amused.

He didn't explain, but just tapped a few more times gently.

"Hmm~"

Jiang Yubai blinked and looked at her.

Lin Jianxia paused for a moment, seemingly wondering where the sound was coming from.

The next second, the girl's face flushed red, and she buried her face back into the pillow, not moving an inch.

"Lin Jianxia?"

Jiang Yubai called out to her on purpose.

"Lin Jianxia~"

"See you in summer~"

"Forest--"

"Jiang Yubai, you're so annoying!" Lin Jianxia suddenly raised her head, her little ears red as she glared at him and yelled, "Are you going to keep hitting me or not?!"

"Pound, pound, pound."

Seeing that the girl buried herself in the pillow again with a splat, Jiang Yubai stopped teasing her and continued massaging her back.

This time, Lin Jianxia seemed to have learned her lesson, remaining silent no matter how he changed his methods.

After the entire "treatment" was finally completed, Jiang Yubai straightened up and stretched his sore arms.

"Okay, all done. Is the customer satisfied?"

Lin Jianxia slowly turned over, her ears slightly red, and wiggled to the edge of the bed, but she still refused to admit defeat:

"It's just so-so..."

"That's true, it's definitely not as good as yours."

Jiang Yubai, on the contrary, didn't care at all, and instead said sincerely,

"Look how much my back aches from all that massage. To be fair, could you give me another one?"

"You wish!"

Lin Jianxia was so angry that she threw a pillow at his forehead, jumped off the bed, put on her slippers, threw down a sentence saying "I'm going to take a shower", and hurriedly fled the room.

"Hey, hey, you haven't mentioned the reward for carrying the load for two months yet?"

"hello?"

Jiang Yubai called out twice towards the door, but all he heard in response was the increasingly distant and hurried footsteps.

What are you afraid of? This is...

Jiang Yubai clicked his tongue and gently stretched his shoulders.

Putting aside his own haphazard massage technique, Lin Jianxia's massage skills were at least somewhat good; after a while, I felt much more relaxed.

Stretching, Jiang Yubai turned and walked towards the bathroom in a cheerful mood.

Take a bath, take a bath~

-----------------

Early the next morning.

Jiang Yubai pushed open the door and was immediately greeted by the aroma of breakfast, which made his stomach rumble.

Lin Jianxia was already sitting at the dining table as usual, seemingly waiting for him to start the meal.

As for Lin Tingwan, she was nowhere to be seen; she was probably still asleep in her room.

Good morning!

Jiang Yubai sat down in the chair, his eyes brightening:

"Is it savory pancake today? It smells so good!"

Lin Jianxia gave a soft "hmm" and casually explained:

"Recently, the food stall downstairs started selling savory pancakes, and since you like them, I learned how to make them online."

Hearing this, Jiang Yubai looked at her with some surprise.

Tujia-style savory pancakes—there was a shop near his house when he was a child, and he loved eating them back then.

Later, that shop moved away, and I never tasted that flavor again.

A new savory pancake shop had recently opened on the snack street, and he was overjoyed to buy two servings, praising them as he ate. He never expected that Lin Jianxia would actually remember them.

Jiang Yubai picked up the savory pancake in front of him and took a bite. It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a rich savory flavor. The taste was so good that he squinted his eyes.

He swallowed the food in his mouth, raised his head, and said sincerely:

"Lin Jianxia, ​​hiring you to be my cook is the best decision I've ever made in my life."

That's great! I don't have to cook, wash the dishes, or clean.

There are even daily tutoring sessions and occasional massage services; it couldn't be more perfect.

The key is that this girl is beautiful, kind-hearted, and has a great figure. She's pleasing to the eye just by looking at her. If you tease her a couple of times, she'll glare at you angrily, and she looks incredibly cute.

Lin Jianxia, ​​who was taking small bites of her biscuit, stopped eating upon hearing this, suddenly looked up at him, and puffed out her cheeks slightly:

"I'm not a cook, that sounds awful."

It sounds awful?

Jiang Yubai thought about it and realized it made sense. What eighteen-year-old girl would want to be called "auntie"?

He thought for a moment, then said, "Then... a little cook?"

Isn't that a cute nickname?

But Lin Jianxia, ​​who was on the other side, pursed her lips upon hearing this, and then retorted softly:

"I... I don't just cook, I also wash dishes, clean, and take care of you when you're sick. I'm more than just a cook."

No, not even a cook?

Jiang Yubai spread her hands helplessly and said:

"Then tell me, what should we call her? We can't just call her 'housekeeping auntie,' can we?"

But Lin Jianxia lowered her head again and hummed something.

"What?"

Jiang Yubai didn't hear clearly.

But Lin Jianxia kept her head down, taking small bites of the savory pancake, and didn't say anything.

Jiang Yubai looked at her with some confusion, but suddenly, a bright idea flashed into his mind.

Not only do they cook, but they also have to wash dishes, clean, and take care of people when they're sick...

It seems there really is such a position, and it really does encompass everything.

But.....

Jiang Yubai looked down at the half-eaten savory pancake in his hand, then looked up at Lin Jianxia's rather unusual appearance.

After hesitating for a moment, he tentatively spoke:

"If you're not called Auntie Rice or the Cook... then there's another title that suits you quite well."

Lin Jianxia paused, then suddenly spoke:

"What is it?"

"...A maid?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Yubai cautiously looked at the girl in front of him.

This name is actually quite subtle.

From the beginning when he half-jokingly brought it up, to Lin Jianxia's firm opposition, the two even had a falling out over this nickname.

Although they later reconciled, and Lin Jianxia even took the initiative to apologize to him dressed as a maid, Jiang Yubai actually always intentionally or unintentionally avoided mentioning the word again.

Aside from the initial unintentional slip of the tongue, it's actually been a long time since I've mentioned it.

Ke Lin Jianxia's attitude today...

It's normal to say "auntie" isn't a nice word, but given her usual personality, she would probably just mutter a few words of complaint and move on when she hears the cook being teased like this.

But today he insisted on refuting it so strongly, it was as if he was being made to say those two words on his own initiative.

"A maid... well, a maid."

Lin Jianxia finally raised her head, her ears slightly red, but her eyes looked at him with a stubbornness.

"It's not like it's a shameful term... It's just that some people always get the wrong idea..."

Could this "some people" be you?

"Are you really alright?" Jiang Yubai teased her on purpose.

"I told you it was fine!"

Lin Jianxia glared at him, but her voice gradually faded.

"...Of course it's alright."

Meeting those beautiful eyes, Jiang Yubai's heart suddenly stirred slightly.

He knew that Lin Jianxia probably didn't care that much anymore, and he guessed that this guy probably wouldn't really be angry.

But he never expected that the little hedgehog would turn over on its own, obediently put away its quills, and expose its soft belly to him.

After such a long time, Jiang Yubai finally chuckled softly:

"Okay, then..."

"Welcome back, my little maid."
