Chapter 1058: The New MaidTranslator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Cradling her little sleeping beauty, Ye Yuwei walked downstairs carefully. Gu Juexi was sitting on the sofa in the living hall, going through his doc.u.ments.

Xixi sobbed sleepily as she crawled onto Gu Juexi for comfort. She wrapped her little hands around Gu Juexi’s neck like a koala, reluctant to let go of him.

Ye Xicheng sat on the couch across them. He didn’t say anything, staring intensely at Gu Juexi’s arm instead.

Gu Juexi put down the doc.u.ments in his left hand and looked at his little princess adoringly. Looks like someone had woken up on the wrong side of the bed.

Ye Yuwei glanced at her daughter briefly before she headed into the kitchen to help Auntie Qian with dinner. She whispered to Auntie Qian, “Remember what I asked you to do, okay?”

Gu Juexi ordered the maid to retrieve Xixi’s toys from the toy room as he glanced at the kitchen. Was it about Wen Tao’s leave permission? Did she really think permitting Wen Tao to take leave would settle the whole fiasco?

The maid, Xiao Lian, returned to the hall with Xixi’s toys. After curling up in her father’s embrace stubbornly for a while longer, Xixi crawled away to play with her toys.

Xiao Lian was recently hired as a maid in Gu Mansion. Initially, there were five maids in the house; seven servants in total including Butler Kim and Auntie Qian. Since the two children were in the house, Gu Juexi had asked Butler Kim to recruit two more maids, and Xiao Lian was one of them.

Xiao Lian seemed to be in her early twenties, with a fair appearance and a reserved demeanor. Other than that, Gu Juexi did not know much about the new maid since he was hardly at home as of late.

“Young Master, your water is cold. I’ll get you a new one,” Xiao Lian said respectfully as she stood beside Gu Juexi with modestly downcast eyes.
