My Best Friend is Actually a Cat-eared Maid at a Cafe! – Chapter 238

“Huh!?”
After a series of explanations, Xiaomuqing’s mouth opened wide in shock, and then she stared at the jade pendant in her hand, speechless for a long time.
According to her good brother’s speculation, the cracks on the jade pendant might increase, and it would be completely废掉 in the end.
“What should we do? If I lose this thing, how can I go to school? And what about Mom and Dad…”
After the shock, problems came one after another.
Her original plan was to get through high school somehow, and if she couldn’t find a way to change back in college, she would continue to attend school as a girl.
Now, this whole situation had completely disrupted her plan and put a lot of pressure on her.
“Calm down, this is just a guess.”
Seeing Xiaomuqing in a state of panic, Ye Ziming comforted her a little.
This might be very bad news for Xiaomuqing, but for him, it was good news.
The night before the holiday ended, he sat in his room, looking at Xiaomuqing’s jade pendant, wondering whether to throw it away.
To his surprise, the jade pendant was so ‘sensible’ that it broke on its own before he could make a move. It was perfect.
“What should I do?”
Xiaomuqing didn’t know what her good brother was thinking. At this moment, she held the jade pendant with both hands, lost in thought.
If one day her secret was discovered by someone else, would she be considered a pervert? Or would people suspect she went to Thailand for surgery?
“It will be fine, don’t worry.”
With a light smile, Ye Ziming reached out and touched Xiaomuqing’s head, then gave her some comfort.
In his opinion, Xiaomuqing’s anxiety was unnecessary, but it was difficult for her to see things clearly as the person involved.
As the little princess of the Lin family, as long as she abandoned this identity, who in the school would dare to cause trouble in front of her?
They would be too busy flattering her.
One noon passed, and the matter of the jade pendant was temporarily shelved. Xiaomuqing wore the jade pendant to school as usual.
The only good news now was that except for a few people she was very familiar with, no one else noticed anything unusual about her.
Then, at dismissal time in the afternoon, Xiaomuqing received a piece of terrible news: the physical fitness test for the long-distance run would be tomorrow!
“Ah! Boss, I think I’m going to die.”
After receiving the news, Xiaomuqing covered her face and collapsed on the desk in pain, as if she heard the doomsday approaching.
“You can do it.”
With his eyes slightly narrowed and a faint smile, Ye Ziming gently patted her shoulder and said so.
In his heart, he had already thought of a very good way to help Xiaomuqing pass the 1000-meter physical fitness test.
However, he couldn’t say it now, because if he said it too early, the effect would not be as good.
“Sob sob sob, boss, can you run for me?”
“I can give you a Princess carry to run.”
“Uh… that’s not necessary.”
Daily chat, daily complaints about the 1000-meter run, daily preparation to go to the coffee shop to work with her good brother.
As she stood up to leave the classroom with her good brother, Xiaomuqing glanced at her cousin and found that he had become more well-behaved.
The reason was that during the break just now, Ye Ziming had a talk with him about life and how to behave.
Meng Wenhao: The thing I regret most is trying to cause trouble in front of my cousin. (I always end up defeated.)
As for Lin Wenbin, this cousin was always simple and honest, which made him very reassuring, Xiaomuqing thought.
Lin Wenbin: What’s with the way this elder looks at the younger generation?
They left school and arrived at the coffee shop. Xiaomuqing first went to the office with her good brother to take a look, and then went to the lounge to find Sister Yu.
At this time, in the lounge, Yu Jie was chatting and laughing with her good girlfriend,Ye Mengze.
“Sister?”
As soon as she pushed open the lounge door, Xiaomuqing noticed Ye Mengze and instinctively called out ‘Sister’.
She was a little surprised. She didn’t know that Sister Yu and her good brother’s sister had such a relationship before.
“Hey!”
Before Xiaomuqing could react, Ye Mengze quickly responded, then walked up to her and hugged her.
“Hmm.”
Her vision was blacked out by softness.
Damn it! What kind of dark power was this that covered her eyes?
And the biggest problem was that in the face of this dark power, she not only had no resistance, but she also felt a little envious…
“Still learning makeup.”
After hugging Xiaomuqing, Ye Mengze quickly took her small hand, sat down, and started chatting.
Through her conversation with Yu Jie just now, Ye Mengze had learned a lot of information, including that her sister-in-law was hiding her identity and working here.
The salary here was indeed high, and the benefits were quite good, but compared to Xiaomuqing’s monthly allowance, it was insignificant.
Therefore, she was surprised.
“Mm-hmm.”
Nodding, Xiaomuqing still wanted to continue learning, for many reasons.
“Well, have you paid your tuition fees yet?”
Ye Mengze’s eyes shifted, and she looked at Xiaomuqing with a cunning smile and asked.
“Tuition fees?”
Xiaomuqing was a little dazed, her gaze becoming vacant.
“Of course. Do you know how much influence the name Yu Jie has in the industry? The people who want to learn from her can form a line from here to your house…”
Seeing Xiaomuqing’s bewildered look, Ye Mengze knew she didn’t understand, so she cleared her throat and began to introduce her sister-in-law.
During this process, Yu Jie sat by the side, watching quietly with a sly smile on her face.
“Wow, so Sister Yu is a very capable person.”
After listening to Ye Mengze’s explanation, Xiaomuqing was still confused, but her gaze towards Sister Yu had changed a lot.
Then she thought of a saying: a hidden master in the city.
She felt that Sister Yu was such a master.
“Something like that. By the way, you’ve been in ‘seclusion’ for so long, when are you planning to ’emerge’?”
The first half was an answer to Xiaomuqing, and the second half was Ye Mengze turning her head to look at Yu Jie on the other side and asking.
“Next year, no rush.”
With a faint smile, Yu Jie gave a casual answer.
After a few more words, with this simple interaction, Ye Mengze successfully portrayed Yu Jie as an industry master, although she was one originally.
The effect of doing this was that Xiaomuqing’s gaze towards Yu Jie unconsciously carried some sparkle.
“Now, do you think you should pay the tuition fee?”
She withdrew her gaze, put on a sidelong smile, and looked at Xiaomuqing, asking softly.
“Yes, yes, of course.”
Nodding vigorously, Xiaomuqing felt that even if her sister didn’t say it, she would have voluntarily paid the tuition fee.
Seeing Xiaomuqing’s reaction, Ye Mengze smiled and moved back, giving Yu Jie a look while handing over the stage to the master and disciple.
Yu Jie, after receiving her bestie’s glance, calmly returned a look of ‘understanding’ and then naturally took over the conversation.
All of this was within their plan.
