Those years of falling in love with Mosaic [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 58 How to Be a Qualified Servant
"But if I finish it, I want to ask the young master for a supreme reward."
Kou Qiu saw a firm, undisguised light in his eyes.
Kou Qiu's hand was in the opponent's hand, and the slowly unfolding cloak was put on his shoulders, tightly covering his body.He was silent for a moment, then raised his head, looked at the other party and said softly: "Are you sure?"
The young man nodded respectfully, without any sign of retreating.
This is a statement that sounds even absurd. If you change someone, you will definitely be scolded bloody, and you will even be said to be bewitched by the witch's witchcraft.How could he, a little servant, fight against a favored viscount like Helun?But Xavier had a strange illusion, and his young master would not doubt it.
To a certain extent, their souls can be said to depend on and support each other. Even if the gap in the eyes of the world is huge, he can entrust his wealth and life to the other party without hesitation.
This kind of awareness is obviously ridiculous, but Xavier still wants to take a gamble.
His master really didn't utter any questioning words, he just pursed his lips and said in a low voice: "Be careful."
Xavier was overjoyed suddenly.
He said softly: "Yes."
The young man bowed and watched Kou Qiu get into the car.Kou Qiu lifted the curtain, his platinum curly hair was also shining in the night, like the shattered rays of sunlight that had been concentrated in one place, "I must see you again before dawn."
A smile flickered across the corner of Xavier's lips, and he bent over.
The door of the carriage was slowly closed, and the driver who drove the carriage waved his delicate whip, and disappeared into the velvety twilight in a blink of an eye.The young man had been standing there watching the carriage disappear, and then he straightened his sleeves slowly.
"So," he murmured, "where do we begin?"
In the eyes of the nobles, these inferior people are nothing but ants.
But few people remember that even the weak ants, which can be trampled at will, are enough to kill people when they gather together.
He walked along the street unhurriedly, with a deep smile on his lips.
Dolores, who had had a blast, didn't come back from the ball until midnight.She drank a lot of wine, her cheeks were burnt and gorgeous, which made her even more beautiful.Seeing her nephew quietly reading a book in the study, she wobbled the fan in her hand, directly knocked on Kou Qiu's head, and pulled out the book in his hand.
Kou Qiu was immersed in the joy of being satisfied in the spiritual world, but was suddenly pulled away from the source of happiness, and immediately raised his head: "Auntie!"
"Little Yuri," Dolores said drunkenly, "you will be nineteen this year..."
Kou Qiu rubbed the center of his brows helplessly, and motioned for the maid behind him to push her into a chair.Dolores, who had finally sat down, didn't notice it at all, and was still crossing her legs coquettishly, laughing and laughing. After a long while, she suddenly started talking again, saying: "What do you think of Ellen?" ?”
Kou Qiu had already completely forgotten about the young lady he met at the ball, but he was taken aback: "Which Ellen?"
"Which other Ellen could it be?" Dolores' eyes half-opened, and she pointed at him with her pale fingertips, "Ellen Esden."
She managed to straighten her body a bit, and then laughed again.
"She looks like she's interested in you..."
Kou Qiu thought of the girl's flushed cheeks at the ball, and remained silent.
Dolores saw something from his expression, she tugged on his sleeve persistently, and asked repeatedly: "Then what do you like?"
--how is it like?
Kou Qiu thought about it carefully, and then realized that he couldn't answer this question at all.
There are no templates and no correct answers.What he likes is only the shining soul that always fights side by side with him.And if he said that he likes a man with eight-pack abs who is like a bazooka in bed, he might scare Dolores soberly.
Kou Qiu had no choice but to say nonsense: "I like the kind of Marx that is particularly thoughtful."
system:【......】
Yes, it can testify.
Really.
I like it all the time.
Dolores was stunned for a long time before muttering, "Who?"
A name I've never heard of.
She tried hard to think for a while, then waved her hand, and casually concluded, "It sounds like an old man."
Kou Qiu: "..."
Even my aunt can't forgive me for slandering my idol like this!
The brilliance of wisdom transcends time and gender, okay? ! !
After a long time, he reached out to help Dolores and said, "Auntie, you are drunk."
"I'm not drunk," Dolores said, waving her hands in vain, "how could I be drunk..."
She buried her blushing face in her arms and murmured lines from Cammons.
"I want you to take my heart and everything that is mine."
"I just ask you to leave me a pair of eyes so that I can see you..."
"Just leave me a pair of eyes—"
Kou Qiu suddenly saw tears in the corner of her eyes.Like a sparkle of light from a tiny diamond, it was gone in a blink of an eye.
The maid helped Dolores to the room, while Kou Qiu sat alone in the room and waited for a long time, until the young man knocked on the back door and came up the stairs silently.
Facing his young master's expectant eyes, Xavier didn't say much.
"You will see the effect in a few days," said the young man, bending slightly towards him, "Now, young master, please go to bed early."
Kou Qiu: "..."
No, to be honest, even without mentioning this, how could he possibly be able to sleep!
But this time, his loyal servant seemed determined.Even meeting his eyes eager to listen to the story, he still pressed his lips tightly, only a little smile leaked from his silver-gray pupils.He put the candlestick aside, then spread out the cloud-like quilt, stretched out his hand, and unbuttoned the pearl buttons on Kou Qiu's chest one by one.
The white body only appeared in front of my eyes for a moment, and was covered by silky silk pajamas in the blink of an eye.
The young man's hands were clean and tidy, only there were thin calluses on the pads of the fingers, which were not smooth to the touch.When his hand rubbed against Kou Qiu's neck inadvertently, he clearly saw his master shrank back suddenly, as if he was stimulated by something.
"Don't move," Senior Officer Kou shrank his neck, "itch."
Xavier stood up abruptly.
"It's time for you to rest," his voice changed into a scratchy hoarseness, and he directly blew out the candle in his hand, "Good night, my master."
He directly closed the door and went out, and the room fell into a deep darkness again.
Kou Qiu: […]
system:【......】
No, just leave?
Although he didn't mean to be shot again, but in this world, Xavier's reaction was far from the previous one, right?
It's as if it wasn't this soul at all in the last few lives who searched for reasons for disharmony and stuffed him with sauce.
[Look,] the system said quietly, [I've said it all, either I won't do it, or I really plan to enshrine you as a god for the rest of my life. 】
Kou Qiu: […]
Seeing that it was really going to develop in the direction his cub said, senior officer Kou was a little flustered.
[Don't panic, hold on,] the system has a dark face, [After all, we still have plan B. 】
Senior officer Kou thought of the plan B of the counterattack, and immediately fell into a deeper silence.
For some reason, he panicked even more.
After waking up, Dolores also seemed to wake up from the big dream before.She never shed tears again, and the headdress made of feathers and ribbons was sprinkled with gold powder, as if she was still the proud and favored lady.She lazily stretched out a hand from the car window, let Kou Qiu kiss it, and then retracted it, looking at him.
"I need to see His Majesty the King first," said his aunt, with a haughty look on her face. "By the way-Miss Ellen has agreed with me today that she will come to our house as a guest. Auntie is not here, so you will take care of me Hers, right?"
Kou Qiu who was standing beside the car was startled, his expression tinged with helplessness.
"aunt......"
"You are a gentleman." Dolores did not allow him to refuse at all, "Take care of the guests, this is what you should do."
Kou Qiu also looked at her, and replied: "But you can't ask for more from me."
Dolores heard the explicit refusal.
She rubbed her chin and said suddenly, "Is it because of what you said about Marx yesterday?"
Senior officer Kou was taken aback, but he couldn't react.
No, it was just a joke, how do you still remember?
"That must be brought for me to see," said Dolores, "otherwise I will not agree."
The system almost burst out laughing.
Kou Qiu: "..."
Agree on what, he and Marx?
I have to say that his aunt really thought too much.
He took a step back speechlessly, watching the carriage rumble away in front of him, until it was far away, Dolores stuck her head out of the car window persistently, and asked Kou Qiu in a loud voice: "How much is her dowry?" ?”
Kou Qiu pretended not to hear, and just waved at the other party.
After waving his hand, he quickly confirmed with the system boy: [Your father is not here right now? 】
The system said: [Definitely not here——didn't he go to get you milk just now? 】
【That’s good,” Kou Qiu heaved a sigh of relief, 【Otherwise, if he heard it, wouldn’t he really think that I like Max? 】
Wouldn't he be wronged?
What's more, his man has always been a jealous jar in the first few worlds.
The rest of the servants stood in front of the door in two rows, respectfully watching the carriage go away.They didn't turn their heads until the shadows disappeared, but as soon as the old housekeeper turned around, he was startled by the young man who didn't know when he was standing in the corner.
"Xavier," he said, "what are you doing standing here?"
The young man behind him was holding a tray, and the golden cup was filled with white and creamy milk.He stood there motionless, his eyes seemed to be filled with fog.
A vast expanse of white.
"There is a young lady coming to visit this afternoon," the butler urged, "Hurry up! Don't stand here in a daze!"
Only then did the young man's footsteps move, and he walked into the door and into the hall without saying a word.The corners of his clothes fluttered behind him, lonely and chilling.
The old butler shivered inexplicably.
He glanced at the young man's straight back again, and murmured, "Weird."
After lunch, Ellen visited as scheduled.She got out of the carriage with the help of a servant, her blue eyes were wet, as if they were filled with the light of the sky.Her huge skirt gently brushed against the carved ground, and her whole body was as soft and graceful as a landscape. When she spoke, she spoke in a soft voice, and her manner was elegant and noble.
The old butler looked at her with admiration.
Master Ulysses has reached the age of marriage, which is the consensus of everyone in the house.And which mistress will be selected is directly related to each servant.
As a result, discussions continued in the basement, and from time to time, a servant who had just come down said a few words excitedly, and couldn't wait to share it with his companions.Ellen's temperament is gentle and generous, it is really hard for people to feel disgusted with her, even if she hates the servants of the nobles, she can't speak wanton words of attack.
"That is such a noble lady," a maid said longingly, "Eats like a pigeon, only eats such a small piece..."
The kitchen maid also held a dim mirror and murmured, "Her curly hair is so pretty."
She stroked her tousled hair.
"Enough," the butler coughed violently and clapped his hands, "How long are you going to talk here? Are you really dead?"
Several servants were frightened by him and did not dare to speak again.After a while, a maid who was always lively said in a low voice, "I, I just want to ask a question."
The old butler's eyes turned to her.
"You said," the maid blinked, "is it possible that this Miss Ellen will become our next mistress?"
The old housekeeper glanced at her, and said in a high-sounding way.
"Before we make a decision, none of us know exactly who will become Master Ulysses' wife."
Everyone in the basement looked at him with bated breath.
"However," the butler added slowly, "as Miss Dolores said, this possibility is very high."
The servants sitting at the table immediately cheered, all of them were filled with uncontrollable excitement, as if the next wedding was coming soon.But amidst such joy, only Xavier sat quietly, silently, as if he had been drawn into a painting.
He no longer seemed like a real person.His vitality has been completely sucked away.
After a while, Xavier laughed softly.
After all, there was no one accompanying her, so Ellen sat on the second floor for a while, then hurriedly got up.When she got to the gate, the girl's cheeks were flushed with shame, and she whispered, "Master Ulysses, my father said that my marriage can be in my own hands."
Seeing that Kou Qiu on the side didn't respond, she even congratulated herself a few times with a smile, and she had no choice but to let go of the last burst of embarrassment in her heart.She hesitated on the ground for a long time on her toes, and finally said softly: "I will have a dowry of 200 million gallons..."
Even in the aristocratic world, this can be regarded as a huge sum of money.
The system let out a gleeful ooh.
Kou Qiu's footsteps paused.
He exhaled lightly, turned around, and faced the girl.Ellen also looked directly at him. Although her face was already flushed, her eyes were full of tenderness and firmness.
The handkerchief squeezed tighter and tighter.
"Miss Ellen," in a trance, she heard the young man on the other side say in a very calm voice, "You are much more shining than the 200 million dowry."
Ellen's body trembled slightly.
"I believe," the handsome young man looked at her, and let out words of rejection from those rosy lips, "you will definitely find someone who suits you and who truly admires you."
He paused, then took out the decorative rose from his pocket, and slowly handed it to the girl.
"Good luck."
This is rejection.
The girl's heart seemed to fall into the deep sea in an instant, and she couldn't say anything.Her lips were trembling, and there was water in her eyes, but she refused to drop a drop.
"Do you know?" After a long while, the girl said with a crying voice, "You are really a very gentle person—"
She didn't say any more, but hurriedly lifted up her wide skirt and got into the carriage waiting at the door.When she was sitting in the car, there was no one around her, so she finally drew the curtain of the car tightly, and holding her handkerchief, she cried profusely.
The first time she met this young master was at the exchange.Amidst the cheers and drumming, it was the first time for her to see such a bloody animal fighting scene.
It pierced her heart bright red.
But the nobles present here seemed to be used to it, even her mother just patted her on the back, her eyes were still firmly focused on the vicious dog and the bitten young man, as if watching two The insignificant ants open their mouthparts to each other.
"Can't it be stopped?" She clutched her mother's skirt in a trembling voice, and asked pleadingly, "Can't it be stopped?——He is a living person!"
But her mother looked down at her strangely.
"Just a slave," she said, "what's the point?"
This was the first time Ellen realized the gap between herself and other nobles.
If this is the standard of a qualified nobleman, then she is undoubtedly a useless defective product.She couldn't turn a blind eye to such bloodshed, and she couldn't treat slaves like livestock, but when she desperately rummaged through the handbag she brought, trying to dig out some jewelry that could buy this slave, another voice The sound came up.
The sky full of golden gallons rolled down, like a golden curtain slowly unfolding.
The golden light reflected in Ellen's eyes was the most beautiful moment she had ever seen.Her heart and soul trembled at that moment, and she let out a low cry that even she felt panicked.
That's why I can't help but be so happy when I meet again at a social dance.He even forgot all about his due restraint and figure, he couldn't wait for the arrival, he couldn't wait for the other party to notice him.
She clutched the wet handkerchief tightly, then wiped away the wet marks around her eyes, and put it back into her sleeve as if nothing had happened.
Such, such a gentle person.
But she will never be his wife.
After returning to the room, Kou Qiu stood in front of the window, watching the girl's car leave, then stretched out his hand, and gently pulled the golden bell hanging from the curtain.
[What a pity,] he said to the system brat, [this comrade, was originally expected to develop into a revolutionary comrade...]
But since there is such a problem with his eyes that he has taken a fancy to himself, he must draw a clear line.
The system said: [Oh, you mean that my dad has a problem with his eyesight. 】
Kou Qiu felt that his reading comprehension must be perfect.
After three knocks on the door, Xavier entered.He still held the tray in his hand, which was filled with delicately made snacks and black tea, which was today's afternoon tea.The young man placed the tray on the table, skillfully threw two sugar cubes into the tea, added a little white milk, and the aroma of the black tea became sweeter, with white steam curling up.
Kou Qiu looked at the young man for a while, then suddenly said: "Xavier, what's wrong with you?"
Xavier's silver-gray eyes lifted up, but the inside was still calm.
"Nothing happened," he said in a low voice, "thank you, young master, for your concern."
Kou Qiu frowned even tighter, "Are you feeling unwell?"
He took two steps closer, stretched out his hand, and subconsciously wanted to touch the young man's forehead.But the young man suddenly took a step back, avoiding his movements.
"My young master," Xavier hung his head, "will get your hands dirty."
Kou Qiu pursed his lips, vaguely aware of something wrong.
This night, when taking a bath, Xavier waited on him as usual.He stood silently by the pool, as if melting into the light, turning into a half-dark shadow.
Halfway through the washing, the young man squatted down and washed his master's feet that had hardly experienced any hardships.
These bare feet are always covered in soft top-grade leather. They are so white that you can even see the light blue blood vessels on them, winding their way up like a little snake.The palm of Xavier's palm was hot and rough, and as he touched the feet, he felt in a trance, as if these snakes had really come to life, burrowing into his heart little by little.
They pointed at him, showing their bright red tongues.
It's like stepping into the Garden of Eden.
He touched it for too long, and Kou Qiu, who was already a little dizzy from the soak, also noticed it, and raised his head in surprise.His platinum-blonde curly hair was all wet, and it was wet against the side of his face. The fragrance emanating from his body was like the plump and juicy grape in the Garden of Eden, shining brightly to seduce people's hearts and souls.As long as he uses a little force, he can bite through this fragile shell.
The sweet juice inside will all splash out.
Those little snakes danced more frequently, they shackled his throat and made his heart no longer under control.
Can only choose to obey.
The strength in Xavier's hands increased a little bit.
His breath, which he had been suppressing all along, sprayed hotly on these feet, and his lips were burning hot and trembling.
"Young master..." He slowly pressed his lips onto the pale skin of his feet, moving inch by inch, "My young master..."
The system boy who was suddenly pulled into the mosaic looked confused.
Water splashes everywhere.
Kou Qiu suddenly let out a low cry, being touched somewhere, suddenly his whole body convulsed uncontrollably.He thumped in the pool, still unable to react, "You..."
The young man's hand suddenly touched it, and then slowly showed him the sticky thing on his hand.
"Serving the young master, this is what I should do," he said softly, and slowly reached out with the other hand, his clothes were mostly wet, outlining the line of his broad shoulders, "Young master—since it's so uncomfortable now, I'll make you comfortable, okay?"
Kou Qiu: "..."
Wait, what the hell is going on here!
If you agree, don't lift it!
What about a counterattack! !
Kou Qiu saw a firm, undisguised light in his eyes.
Kou Qiu's hand was in the opponent's hand, and the slowly unfolding cloak was put on his shoulders, tightly covering his body.He was silent for a moment, then raised his head, looked at the other party and said softly: "Are you sure?"
The young man nodded respectfully, without any sign of retreating.
This is a statement that sounds even absurd. If you change someone, you will definitely be scolded bloody, and you will even be said to be bewitched by the witch's witchcraft.How could he, a little servant, fight against a favored viscount like Helun?But Xavier had a strange illusion, and his young master would not doubt it.
To a certain extent, their souls can be said to depend on and support each other. Even if the gap in the eyes of the world is huge, he can entrust his wealth and life to the other party without hesitation.
This kind of awareness is obviously ridiculous, but Xavier still wants to take a gamble.
His master really didn't utter any questioning words, he just pursed his lips and said in a low voice: "Be careful."
Xavier was overjoyed suddenly.
He said softly: "Yes."
The young man bowed and watched Kou Qiu get into the car.Kou Qiu lifted the curtain, his platinum curly hair was also shining in the night, like the shattered rays of sunlight that had been concentrated in one place, "I must see you again before dawn."
A smile flickered across the corner of Xavier's lips, and he bent over.
The door of the carriage was slowly closed, and the driver who drove the carriage waved his delicate whip, and disappeared into the velvety twilight in a blink of an eye.The young man had been standing there watching the carriage disappear, and then he straightened his sleeves slowly.
"So," he murmured, "where do we begin?"
In the eyes of the nobles, these inferior people are nothing but ants.
But few people remember that even the weak ants, which can be trampled at will, are enough to kill people when they gather together.
He walked along the street unhurriedly, with a deep smile on his lips.
Dolores, who had had a blast, didn't come back from the ball until midnight.She drank a lot of wine, her cheeks were burnt and gorgeous, which made her even more beautiful.Seeing her nephew quietly reading a book in the study, she wobbled the fan in her hand, directly knocked on Kou Qiu's head, and pulled out the book in his hand.
Kou Qiu was immersed in the joy of being satisfied in the spiritual world, but was suddenly pulled away from the source of happiness, and immediately raised his head: "Auntie!"
"Little Yuri," Dolores said drunkenly, "you will be nineteen this year..."
Kou Qiu rubbed the center of his brows helplessly, and motioned for the maid behind him to push her into a chair.Dolores, who had finally sat down, didn't notice it at all, and was still crossing her legs coquettishly, laughing and laughing.

Really.
I like it all the time.
Dolores was stunned for a long time before muttering, "Who?"
A name I've never heard of.
She tried hard to think for a while, then waved her hand, and casually concluded, "It sounds like an old man."
Kou Qiu: "..."
Even my aunt can't forgive me for slandering my idol like this!
The brilliance of wisdom transcends time and gender, okay? ! !
After a long time, he reached out to help Dolores and said, "Auntie, you are drunk."
"I'm not drunk," Dolores said, waving her hands in vain, "how could I be drunk..."
She buried her blushing face in her arms and murmured lines from Cammons.
"I want you to take my heart and everything that is mine."
"I just ask you to leave me a pair of eyes so that I can see you..."
"Just leave me a pair of eyes—"
Kou Qiu suddenly saw tears in the corner of her eyes.Like a sparkle of light from a tiny diamond, it was gone in a blink of an eye.

After a while, Xavier laughed softly.
After all, there was no one accompanying her, so Ellen sat on the second floor for a while, then hurriedly got up.When she got to the gate, the girl's cheeks were flushed with shame, and she whispered, "Master Ulysses, my father said that my marriage can be in my own hands."
Seeing that Kou Qiu on the side didn't respond, she even congratulated herself a few times with a smile, and she had no choice but to let go of the last burst of embarrassment in her heart.She hesitated on the ground for a long time on her toes, and finally said softly: "I will have a dowry of 200 million gallons..."
Even in the aristocratic world, this can be regarded as a huge sum of money.
The system let out a gleeful ooh.
Kou Qiu's footsteps paused.
He exhaled lightly, turned around, and faced the girl.Ellen also looked directly at him. Although her face was already flushed, her eyes were full of tenderness and firmness.
The handkerchief squeezed tighter and tighter.
"Miss Ellen," in a trance, she heard the young man on the other side say in a very calm voice, "You are much more shining than the 200 million dowry."
Ellen's body trembled slightly.
"I believe," the handsome young man looked at her, and let out words of rejection from those rosy lips, "you will definitely find someone who suits you and who truly admires you."
He paused, then took out the decorative rose from his pocket, and slowly handed it to the girl.
"Good luck."
This is rejection.
The girl's heart seemed to fall into the deep sea in an instant, and she couldn't say anything.Her lips were trembling, and there was water in her eyes, but she refused to drop a drop.
"Do you know?" After a long while, the girl said with a crying voice, "You are really a very gentle person—"
She didn't say any more, but hurriedly lifted up her wide skirt and got into the carriage waiting at the door.When she was sitting in the car, there was no one around her, so she finally drew the curtain of the car tightly, and holding her handkerchief, she cried profusely.
The first time she met this young master was at the exchange.Amidst the cheers and drumming, it was the first time for her to see such a bloody animal fighting scene.
It pierced her heart bright red.
But the nobles present here seemed to be used to it, even her mother just patted her on the back, her eyes were still firmly focused on the vicious dog and the bitten young man, as if watching two The insignificant ants open their mouthparts to each other.
"Can't it be stopped?" She clutched her mother's skirt in a trembling voice, and asked pleadingly, "Can't it be stopped?——He is a living person!"
But her mother looked down at her strangely.
"Just a slave," she said, "what's the point?"
This was the first time Ellen realized the gap between herself and other nobles.
If this is the standard of a qualified nobleman, then she is undoubtedly a useless defective product.She couldn't turn a blind eye to such bloodshed, and she couldn't treat slaves like livestock, but when she desperately rummaged through the handbag she brought, trying to dig out some jewelry that could buy this slave, another voice The sound came up.
The sky full of golden gallons rolled down, like a golden curtain slowly unfolding.
The golden light reflected in Ellen's eyes was the most beautiful moment she had ever seen.Her heart and soul trembled at that moment, and she let out a low cry that even she felt panicked.
That's why I can't help but be so happy when I meet again at a social dance.He even forgot all about his due restraint and figure, he couldn't wait for the arrival, he couldn't wait for the other party to notice him.
She clutched the wet handkerchief tightly, then wiped away the wet marks around her eyes, and put it back into her sleeve as if nothing had happened.
Such, such a gentle person.
But she will never be his wife.
After returning to the room, Kou Qiu stood in front of the window, watching the girl's car leave, then stretched out his hand, and gently pulled the golden bell hanging from the curtain.
[What a pity,] he said to the system brat, [this comrade, was originally expected to develop into a revolutionary comrade...]
But since there is such a problem with his eyes that he has taken a fancy to himself, he must draw a clear line.
The system said: [Oh, you mean that my dad has a problem with his eyesight. 】
Kou Qiu felt that his reading comprehension must be perfect.
After three knocks on the door, Xavier entered.He still held the tray in his hand, which was filled with delicately made snacks and black tea, which was today's afternoon tea.The young man placed the tray on the table, skillfully threw two sugar cubes into the tea, added a little white milk, and the aroma of the black tea became sweeter, with white steam curling up.
Kou Qiu looked at the young man for a while, then suddenly said: "Xavier, what's wrong with you?"
Xavier's silver-gray eyes lifted up, but the inside was still calm.
"Nothing happened," he said in a low voice, "thank you, young master, for your concern."
Kou Qiu frowned even tighter, "Are you feeling unwell?"
He took two steps closer, stretched out his hand, and subconsciously wanted to touch the young man's forehead.But the young man suddenly took a step back, avoiding his movements.
"My young master," Xavier hung his head, "will get your hands dirty."
Kou Qiu pursed his lips, vaguely aware of something wrong.
This night, when taking a bath, Xavier waited on him as usual.He stood silently by the pool, as if melting into the light, turning into a half-dark shadow.
Halfway through the washing, the young man squatted down and washed his master's feet that had hardly experienced any hardships.
These bare feet are always covered in soft top-grade leather. They are so white that you can even see the light blue blood vessels on them, winding their way up like a little snake.The palm of Xavier's palm was hot and rough, and as he touched the feet, he felt in a trance, as if these snakes had really come to life, burrowing into his heart little by little.
They pointed at him, showing their bright red tongues.
It's like stepping into the Garden of Eden.
He touched it for too long, and Kou Qiu, who was already a little dizzy from the soak, also noticed it, and raised his head in surprise.His platinum-blonde curly hair was all wet, and it was wet against the side of his face. The fragrance emanating from his body was like the plump and juicy grape in the Garden of Eden, shining brightly to seduce people's hearts and souls.As long as he uses a little force, he can bite through this fragile shell.
The sweet juice inside will all splash out.
Those little snakes danced more frequently, they shackled his throat and made his heart no longer under control.
Can only choose to obey.
The strength in Xavier's hands increased a little bit.
His breath, which he had been suppressing all along, sprayed hotly on these feet, and his lips were burning hot and trembling.
"Young master..." He slowly pressed his lips onto the pale skin of his feet, moving inch by inch, "My young master..."
The system boy who was suddenly pulled into the mosaic looked confused.
Water splashes everywhere.
Kou Qiu suddenly let out a low cry, being touched somewhere, suddenly his whole body convulsed uncontrollably.He thumped in the pool, still unable to react, "You..."
The young man's hand suddenly touched it, and then slowly showed him the sticky thing on his hand.
"Serving the young master, this is what I should do," he said softly, and slowly reached out with the other hand, his clothes were mostly wet, outlining the line of his broad shoulders, "Young master—since it's so uncomfortable now, I'll make you comfortable, okay?"
Kou Qiu: "..."
Wait, what the hell is going on here!
If you agree, don't lift it!
What about a counterattack! !
