Urging for more updates, then turning into a magical girl.

Chapter 8 Maid Su Chenjin

A young girl walked in.

Her long blue hair fell to her waist, and she wore a blue and white maid outfit with a few black accents, making her look both dignified and obedient.

The girl was holding a plate with several dishes and a bowl of steaming rice on it.

The aroma of food wafted over, and Lin Yuyan's stomach immediately began to rumble.

She hadn't eaten for several days.

Although Zhang Menglin administered glucose to her during her coma, the prolonged fasting caused her body to develop an intense craving for food.

However, Lin Yuyan's gaze was completely drawn to the blue-haired maid in front of her, rather than to the food.

It looks... exactly the same.

Long blue hair, a slightly aloof expression, short stature... Apart from the wrong clothes and the lack of a noble air, he was exactly like the protagonist in his own writing.

Lin Yuyan was almost stunned.

"Miss Lin, your meal is ready."

The blue-haired maid walked to the bedside, bowed slightly, and handed over the plate.

"…………Ah, okay."

Lin Yuyan then came to her senses. She hurriedly took the plate, placed it on her lap, and picked up her chopsticks.

She almost cried when she took her first bite.

Damn it, I haven't eaten in ages, I'm starving.

But as she ate, her eyes kept glancing at the blue-haired maid standing to the side.

"Who...are you?" After eating several bites of rice, Lin Yuyan couldn't help but ask.

The blue-haired maid clasped her hands in front of her and bowed slightly as she replied, "My name is Su Chenjin. I am the personal maid of Mr. Cheng Qi, the commander of the Starry Sky."

Lin Yuyan was slightly taken aback.

The commander's personal maid?

"...It seems your organization really thinks highly of me."

She poked at the rice in her bowl with her chopsticks, her tone seemingly a mix of self-deprecation and defiance, "The Commander's personal maid actually comes to bring food to a prisoner like me? I'm truly flattered."

Despite these barbed words, Su Chenjin did not show any anger.

She moved the extra dishes from the plate to the bedside table, then returned them to their original positions, maintaining her composed and dignified demeanor.

"Ms. Lin, if you need anything or want anything, please let me know. I will do my best to help you within the scope of my duties."

Lin Yuyan glanced at her sideways, then put down her chopsticks.

"I want my heart's flower. Can you find it for me?"

His tone was filled with resentment and anger.

Su Chenjin's clear eyes met Lin Yuyan's for a moment, then lowered as if to avoid the gaze.

Although it wasn't said, Lin Yuyan understood the answer:

Of course not.

Lin Yuyan knew there would be no answer to this question. She just wanted to vent. She lowered her head, continued eating the rice in her bowl, and didn't say another word.

Su Chenjin stood quietly to the side, waiting for Lin Yuyan to finish his meal.

Then, she cleared away all the dishes and placed them on a plate, picked it up, and walked towards the door. At the door, the blue-haired maid took a card from her pocket, swiped it on the card reader beside the door, and the metal door slowly slid open.

The moment the door opened, Lin Yuyan instinctively wanted to rush out. However, upon seeing the two burly guards standing outside, she had to abandon the idea.

Sure enough... they wouldn't just send one maid to bring me food; there would definitely be someone specifically guarding the door.

Su Chenjin carried the tray out, and the door closed behind her.

Lin Yuyan was left alone in the room again.

She lay in bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.

After a long while, she finally let out a long sigh.

"...What am I doing?"

The blue-haired maid had come to bring her food and take care of her. Whatever her motives, at least for the time being, the maid had remained polite and patient.

And what about yourself?

They start off with sarcastic remarks, and then try to make things difficult for the other person by asking them to do something they absolutely cannot do.

It wasn't her who locked herself up, nor was it her who stole the flower of her heart.

She was just following orders.

What kind of skill is it to take your anger out on an innocent person?

The more Lin Yuyan thought about it, the more she felt that her performance just now was really terrible. She turned over, buried her face in the pillow, and muttered a curse to herself.

……

Although there were no windows, the room was equipped with an alarm clock, which prevented Lin Yuyan from getting the time wrong and disrupting her biological clock.

In the evening, the door opened, and Su Chenjin walked in carrying a new plate of food.

Dinner is ready.

Just like at noon, the blue-haired maid placed the tray by the bedside, her voice still humble and calm: "Miss Lin, dinner."

Lin Yuyan remained seated on the bed, took the plate, but did not immediately pick up her chopsticks.

She placed the plate on her lap and remained silent for several seconds.

Then she raised her head and looked at Su Chenjin seriously.

"Um... I'm sorry."

Faced with Lin Yuyan's apology, Su Chenjin seemed somewhat puzzled and tilted her head slightly.

"Miss Lin...why did you suddenly apologize?"

Lin Yuyan sighed, her gaze shifting somewhat awkwardly to the side.

"It's just... I shouldn't have talked to you like that at noon."

"As a magical girl... I was suddenly stripped of my powers, so I was a little anxious. Plus, since you're from the 'Where the Stars Are' base, I subconsciously assumed you were one of them. So, I couldn't help but blurt it out."

"But... you're just a maid, bringing me food... you're only following orders, right? You're so kind to me, but I don't appreciate it. I know those things weren't your fault, I was just... in a bad mood, and then I took it out on you."

Anyway, I'm sorry.

Seeing the other person's sincerity, Su Chenjin also showed a somewhat surprised expression.

But she quickly regained her composure and bowed slightly to Lin Yuyan: "...You don't need to worry about it, Miss Lin."

At this moment, Lin Yuyan felt much more at ease. Although the other party's response was rather bland, at least she had accomplished her task of apologizing.

From now on... this maid will probably be the one bringing her meals and taking care of her, so it's best not to make things too difficult for her. Perhaps this is just a small matter in Su Chenjin's mind, but if she doesn't apologize quickly at this time, Lin Yuyan will also feel uneasy.

Feeling much better, Lin Yuyan picked up her chopsticks and prepared to start eating dinner.

"Miss Lin."

Su Chenjin suddenly spoke up.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuyan looked up at the other person.

The blue-haired maid took a slight step and stared at her intently.

"What does the 'flower of the heart' you mentioned at noon look like?"
