What does Lu Shizhen want to do

She is just a poor host who wants to win the favor of the heroine and obtain a permanently healthy body.

Even though he had risked his life last night, Lu Shizhen turned pale when he saw the five points deducted from the points system.

Some people appear strong and moody on the surface, but secretly they lie on the bed, crying bitterly because they were deducted five points.

The sun slowly rose into the sky, shining brightly, but Lu Shizhen had not yet fully recovered.

She sat at the dining table wearing a coral fleece shawl, holding the warm coffee in her hands, but it couldn't warm her sad heart.

That's a full five points.

Isn’t this price a bit too high

"Oh." Lu Shizhen sighed.

Xiaoqiu leaned on the edge of the cup and secretly drank coffee, and encouraged vaguely: "Host, don't be discouraged."

Lu Shizhen looked at the small ball that gradually turned brown, and became more alert. He couldn't help but reach out and poke it: "Won't you short-circuit if you drink this?"

"No." Xiaoqiu shook his head and took another big sip greedily. He didn't have the majesty of the system in the novel at all. "Human things won't pose any threat to us."

Somehow, when Lu Shizhen looked at the ball, she suddenly thought of the gods who had sneaked down to earth in the fairy tales she had read.

Even though they have already gone through a fast and do not need to eat or drink, they are still attracted by the delicious food in the world. The protagonist can please them just by moving his fingers.

If only Xu Shiyue was so easy to capture.

What does Xu Shiyue like

Thinking of this, Lu Shizhen held his chin and fell into deep thought.

In the original text, Xu Shiyue did not regain her eyesight until later in the story. In order to get back what belonged to her, she seemed to have given up a lot of things.

The thin cigarette that was always between her fingers didn't seem to be a love, it was just a tool for her to relieve her sorrow.

The sunlight was bright and Lu Shizhen narrowed his eyes slightly.

But before she could recall anything from the clues in the original text, Aunt Sun interrupted her: "Miss, the unstable things in the house have been fixed, the fragile items have been removed, and the workers who are installing the handrails have begun to install them one after another. The bedside table you requested has been transferred, and the servants have also gone to Miss Xu's bedroom to replace it."

Aunt Sun is indeed one of the few elderly people who can serve in this family for a very long time. She completed what the young lady asked her to do in just half an hour.

Lu Shizhen was very satisfied with the speed with which Aunt Sun handled the tasks she had assigned to her. Just as she was about to take a sip of the coffee in her hand, she paused when she heard her words the next second.

A tablet was placed in front of Lu Shizhen, and Aunt Sun said respectfully: "Miss, this is the list of new servants selected by the flower room supervisor. Please take a look."

Lu Shizhen looked at the ten big words "Rose Garden Autumn Management List" written on the cover of the document and his head buzzed.

The original owner loved Rose so much that she wanted to take care of everything for her personally, but this soul in the body knew nothing about these things.

Lu Shizhen just stared at the tablet in front of him, choked up, and looked at Aunt Sun, the housekeeper, pretending to be dissatisfied: "Do you need me to personally review this?"

Aunt Sun could hear the meaning behind Lu Shizhen's words, and she quickly flipped through the contents on the tablet and said the most important thing: "It's mainly about this person. The supervisor thinks she's a little strange, and I want to ask you what you think, Miss."

Lu Shizhen nodded, and the expression on his face became more reassuring.

Anyway, as long as it is not professional stuff about rose cultivation, it’s fine. If this person is really as weird and unreliable as they say, just pass him up.

But this idea didn't stay in Lu Shizhen's mind for long before it was shattered by the information on this person's resume.

It’s not that this person’s resume is so amazing, it’s just a very ordinary florist’s resume, and the photo is visibly crooked and rough.

But it was this person's name that made Lu Shizhen feel familiar no matter how she looked at it.

Luo Ji...

Isn't this Luo, the capable assistant of Xu Shiyue's father during his lifetime, who in the original text sneaked into the Lu family by chance and endured humiliation to secretly help Xu Shiyue? !

The sunlight falling on the flat screen seemed to wash away the deliberately ugly tricks on the photos.

There was an intimidating aura in those eyes that were lowered in an attempt to pretend to be unconfident, and a strange feeling lingered in Lu Shizhen's mind.

She realized that now seemed to be the opportunity mentioned in the original text.

"For the safety of the young lady, every servant in the family needs to undergo background checks. When we were doing the background check, we found that this person was not a native of the village listed on her resume. She deliberately concealed her place of origin and age..."

Aunt Sun was reporting this person's situation seriously to Lu Shizhen, and the strictness of the family system was evident between the lines.

Lu Shizhen couldn't help but worry for Luo Ji after listening to this. No wonder the article said that she had spent a lot of effort to get into this family. If she hadn't been there today, she might have been passed over.

Aunt Sun was still talking about their investigation, but Lu Shizhen raised her hand to interrupt her: "I don't think there's any problem. Look at her, she's so dirty, maybe she has something to hide."

Of course, Lu Shizhen also knew that his decision was obviously contrary to what the original owner would have made.

But she changed her mind and realized that the original owner was a moody lunatic who did things without any logic. She simply didn't explain much and said to Aunt Sun in an ambiguous way, "I believe in doing one good deed a day recently."

Maybe it was because of her professional ethics. Although she didn't quite understand, Aunt Sun still nodded and said, "Okay, Miss."

Lu Shizhen nodded, then remembered something and called out to Aunt Sun who was about to leave: "There is one more thing."

Aunt Sun stopped immediately and said, "Go ahead."

Just as Lu Shizhen was about to speak, he saw the little ball floating on the surface and playing games after drinking too much coffee in his peripheral vision, and a sense of mischief suddenly surged in his mind.

She deliberately avoided the brown ball and leaned slightly to Aunt Sun's ear: "I need you to help me..."

.

After giving Aunt Sun instructions and arrangements for a series of things, Lu Shizhen suddenly felt relieved.

She went upstairs carrying the small ball of coffee, and her steps on the stairs were light and brisk.

Thinking about the things he had arranged for Xu Shiyue, Lu Shizhen couldn't help but lean over to take a look when he passed by Xu Shiyue's room.

The door of her room was open, which was unusual. All the people arranged by Aunt Sun were crowded in this room at this time.

The whole house was filled with a chaotic and noisy atmosphere, and even the most spacious space was filled with all kinds of things.

Lu Shizhen watched from afar and slowed down his pace to a stop.

Amid the hustle and bustle of people coming and going, Xu Shiyue is the one who stands out the most.

She did not sit on the bed and wait. Various instruments were spread on the floor, and the decorators nonchalantly pushed her into a corner as she was in the way.

Bright sunlight poured in from the window, and the white skirt hung on her legs. The wood chips mercilessly hung on the fragile fabric, leaving a red mark on the girl's delicate skin.

Xu Shiyue couldn't see and didn't know where to go in this situation.

She just stood there with her eyelashes drooping, like a frightened kitten, without saying a word and looking extremely helpless in this place where no one passed by, with a box almost as tall as her next to her.

The box was pitch black and as large as a shadow, easily covering Xu Shiyue.

Lu Shizhen didn't know music theory and didn't know what the box in Xu Shiyue's hand contained.

People were walking around in the room, and the girl's slender body was slightly in front of the box. She was obviously unable to take care of herself, but she was still trying her best to protect it, which made Lu Shizhen feel that she seemed to treasure this thing very much.

"oops."

Suddenly, a woman's angry scream abruptly rang out in the room filled with the sound of electric drills.

A maid who was walking backwards was tripped by a box in Xu Shiyue's hand and almost fell to the ground.

The maid was already unhappy about being assigned to do such heavy work so early in the morning, and now she was almost tripped by the things in the man's hand, and her anger was out of control.

Anyway, their young lady didn't care much about this blind man. Now she even took back the valuable cabinet that was given to her. I guess she is disgusted with her.

Despicable people always take advantage of the weak.

The maid looked up and down at the helpless Xu Shiyue, kicked the box she was protecting, and asked loudly: "Hey, what is this thing? It's so big? Did you do it on purpose just now?"

The huge box was kicked mercilessly, making a dull banging sound.

The girl's slender figure was already barely holding on, and she paced a few times looking a little embarrassed.

But those hands were still guarding the box tightly.

"It's you who didn't see it." Xu Shiyue spoke coldly, her tightly pursed lips parting a little.

She looked unhappy and her voice was a little deeper.

The lowered eyes were not as if they could not see, but as if they were disdainful.

"Is it me who can't see or you who can't see?" The maid didn't expect that Xu Shiyue, who usually kept silent and looked like she was easy to bully, would be like this this time. She immediately pointed at her nose and scolded her, "If you can't see, don't block the way here. Can you have some self-awareness and find a place where you won't get in the way? You blind man, do you believe it..."

As the maid said this, she became more aggressive.

But before she stretched out her hand to touch a single hair of Xu Shiyue, it was pulled back by a strong force.

A figure flashed into Xu Shiyue's sight, blocking the noisy shadows in the room.

Lu Shizhen stood behind the maid and asked her with a smile: "I'm sorry, I didn't hear what you said just now clearly. Could you please say it again?"
