Lu Mingfei Development Program

Chapter 259 Flowers for the Head Maid

Patsy took out a comb from her bag and carefully combed Lu Mingfei's hair. Her posture was very skillful and her movements were extremely gentle. It was not difficult to see that Lucrecia's extremely bright long hair was probably combed by her on a daily basis.

"Perhaps you have been used to it in the past, but as the future master of the Gattuso family, you may not take it seriously, but you cannot ignore some necessary etiquette..." Patsy said softly.

Lu Mingfei resisted the urge to roll his eyes. Patsy's service was refreshing, just like the maid in feudal times who helped the landlord wash up early in the morning... He was wrong, she was indeed a maid.

Anyway, no matter what, even without the status of a personal maid, Patsy would definitely be one of the best candidates to be a wife just because of her considerateness.

Lu Mingfei, who was about to become a cripple, did not dare to say that he was dissatisfied with her, and Lucrecia was extremely satisfied with her.

However, Lucrecia had complained to Lu Mingfei more than once. She could not find fault with Patsy's professionalism. The only thing she could not stand was that when she was being groomed every morning, she had to remind her over and over again that as the eldest daughter and future mistress of the Gattuso family, she must not forget that she represented the face of the Gattuso family to a certain extent.

Lu Mingfei didn't take it seriously at first, thinking that Lucrecia was just acting like a spoiled brat. Until one day, Patsy came to his house, walked up behind him, and said softly: As the future male owner of the Gattuso family...

Lu Mingfei stretched out his hand and interrupted Patsy's next words: "Listen, you are on vacation now, there is no need to bring your working state into it."

"Besides," he glanced back at Patsy, "you're with me now. We're out now. To put it bluntly, we're on a date. Have you ever seen a girl say these things on a date with a boy?"

"...Then it's as you wish." Patsy smiled slightly, and then pressed Lu Mingfei's head back, "Then please change your clothes first. I have never seen a boy dress so casually when meeting a girl."

Lu Mingfei obediently accepted the treatment and then secretly sighed. The head maid learned very quickly and could not apply what she had learned to other situations, but she could still leave him speechless.

And Patsy called him "you", he corrected her several times, telling Patsy seriously that calling him "you" would make him look very mature. This always gave him the impression that he was wearing a well-dressed suit, sitting in front of a backlit desk, with his hands crossed on his chin, his eyes reflecting the light, deep and unfathomable.

Then Patsy smiled and said that as Gattuso's future male master, appropriately showing an unfathomable and profound look would win him the respect of other forces... Anyway, from then on, Lu Mingfei no longer mentioned the issue of title.

"Okay." Patsy put down the bottles and jars used for nursing and called Lu Mingfei, whose mind had begun to wander, to look in the mirror.

Lu Mingfei yawned and looked at himself in the mirror. Patsy was an excellent maid and an excellent photographer, so anything she did was definitely extraordinary.

But how should I put it, this kind of formal and informal, sophisticated but not completely sophisticated, mature and immature. At first glance, he looks like Patsy, blurring the boundaries of age and making people ignore the fact that he is still a high school student.

"Do you care that I'm younger than you?" Lu Mingfei asked, tilting his head?
Patsy was the same age as Lucrecia, two years older than Lu Mingfei. At this age, she should have been enrolled in college, but after Lucrecia transferred to the preparatory class here, she entered as a companion.

However, Lucrecia herself did not look like a high school student, whether in terms of her development or temperament. And Patsy, who was in charge of her daily life and who did not act like a master and servant when they were with her, was even less like a sister.

Patsy is like a sister, not because she looks older than Lucretia, but because when Lucretia is with her, she is the one who is taken care of. Although it is natural for a maid to serve her master, Lucretia does not treat Patsy as a maid.

This feeling became even stronger when she was with Lu Mingfei. It was obvious at a glance which one was older and more mature, the boy dressed like a high school student or the blonde who looked like an urban beauty.

Patsy shook her head and denied it: "No, you are more mature than your peers. I just showed this a little bit."

"Really?" Lu Mingfei had a subtle smile on his face, but did not ask any further questions, exposing the head maid's somewhat lame excuse.

Although the age difference was only two years, which was not a big difference, he was a little surprised that Patsy would care about it. Whether she was a student, a maid, or a butler, Patsy always showed her perfect and impeccable side.

And such a perfect maid who is impeccable actually has a side that cares about age. This is really... a little cute.

Lu Mingfei felt that Patsy finally had a little more of the mentality that was unique to girls of this age. He didn't know if this was a good thing, but he felt that the perfect head maid was a little closer.

…But by the time Patsy swore her allegiance to him, they were already among the closest people in the world.

After changing into the full set of clothes prepared by Patsy, Lu Mingfei showed the feeling between maturity and immaturity as Patsy wished. This made Patsy feel that they were not like brother and sister when they stood together, but more compatible, as if it was supposed to be this way.

"Let's go." Lu Mingfei stood up and held out his hand to Patsy. It took a while to do the styling, but it was only noon now, and they still had an afternoon to spend together.

As Lu Mingfei had imagined, there was no soft hand holding him. He looked back and saw Patsy was silent, looking at the hand he had extended.

"...I'm sorry." Patsy said softly. She lowered her head, and her bangs that no longer covered her eyes fell down, casting a shadow in front of her eyes. "Nominally, I am a maid serving Miss Lucrecia and you, and you are the future master of the Gattuso family."

In other words, maids shouldn't get too intimate with their masters... at least not in public.

Lu Mingfei looked at her silently, and suddenly sighed in his heart. This was the scene he was prepared to see when he wanted to do something greedy.

Patsy is concerned about his relationship with Lucrecia.

The structure of the Gattuso family is very strange. Patsy is as good as Lucrecia, but she can only serve the former as a maid. According to Patsy's "accidental" revelation, the current head of the Gattuso family is, strictly speaking, just a high-level servant.

They only serve one person, that is, the family of the head of the family, and the fiancé of the eldest daughter of the family whom they recognize.

Lu Mingfei didn't understand the Western aristocracy system, but he felt that the system where everyone except the family members were servants was a bit too strange. But Patsy didn't show any surprise at this, as if it was supposed to be this way.

Lu Mingfei didn't like this feeling. Patsy was no worse than any other girl he knew. Moreover, if he really had to consider his relationship with Lucrecia, that was something he should consider.

"Listen, this is my choice..." Lu Mingfei wanted to say something to Patsy.

Then, he heard a cry of "ouch". The head maid Patsy Gattuso, who was once of dangerous bloodline and now an A+ grade hybrid, tripped over herself in an empty space. Her body "uncontrollably" leaned forward, and her "flustered" hand "just happened" to grab the hand that Lu Mingfei had extended, and her "unbalanced" body was "just" supported by him.

Lu Mingfei had a blank expression on his face. The slight emotion that had just risen in his heart was knocked back by the head maid's fake fall.

He was wrong to think that Patsy, who had used the shopping as an excuse to openly tell Lucretia that she and he were going out alone, would care about such a "little thing".

Patsy stood firm, but she did not take back the hand that was supporting Lu Mingfei. She raised her head, revealing her eyes that were hidden by her bangs, and smiled slightly at Lu Mingfei who was looking at her in silence.

She said: "Girls are very fragile and will always need help because of a small thing."

She blinked at Lu Mingfei and said, "Miss Lucrecia doesn't know yet that you have repaired my dangerous bloodline. So in her impression, I am still the one who wouldn't be surprised if I fell down at any time."

“…Yes, yes, it’s not good to lie like this, right?” Lu Mingfei wanted to laugh. The head maid now looked a little cunning, a mix between a sly fox and a naughty kitten. Maybe this was her true side hidden under the impeccable and perfect maid.

Patsy smiled slightly: "This is just a little bit of my bad intentions accumulated from taking care of the immature young lady for many years."

"Don't go overboard." Lu Mingfei held down Patsy's hand with his other hand, making it look more like support.

He pinched Patsy's slender fingers in his hand. The warm and soft feeling was a different experience compared to Renata's small hand, which he just wanted to play with in his palm, but it was just as unbearable to let go.

Lu Mingfei said softly: "If Lucrecia is sad, I will be very troubled."

"People or things that would make Miss Lucrecia sad are my top priority to eliminate." Patsy answered subconsciously.

Then she seemed to suddenly think of something, but it might be rude to ask, as she had already done enough rude things today.

Lu Mingfei glanced at her and said softly, "Of course, if the one who was sad was you, I would also be troubled."

Patsy smiled silently, supported Lu Mingfei, and walked towards the store where they had an appointment.

"Please pack these up for me and send them here..." Patsy gave Lu Mingfei's home address skillfully, with no trace of the "weakness" that required support when she first entered the store.

"What are you doing?" Lu Mingfei was surprised, because along the way, the two of them went in and out of shops one after another. Their relationship was not a date at all, it was really like what Patsy said to Lucrecia, they were here to buy what they needed.

After filling in the delivery address, Patsy turned around and smiled at Lu Mingfei: "As you can see, I'm buying supplies for your new home decoration plan."

Lu Mingfei was surprised again: "What decoration plan? How come I don't know about it?"

"I looked at the interior decoration of your neighbors and concluded that your current residence can no longer meet your daily needs." Patsy explained, "So I want to follow their example and buy the houses on both sides of yours. Miss Lucrecia will contact a professional designer in Italy..."

“Stop, stop, stop!” Lu Mingfei interrupted Patsy. “Am I still the owner of this house? Why am I the last one to know that my house is being demolished?”

Patsy looked at him silently. "Strictly speaking, the property rights of the house you live in belong to Ms. Joveny, your mother. She authorized me to expand it. It seems that you only have the right to live there at present."

It was the first time that Lu Mingfei knew that the financial power of the family was in the hands of his mother. He couldn't help but feel a little sad for Lu Lincheng. Couldn't he be tougher... Well, if he was tougher, he wouldn't have sold him out, and sold him out several times!
“…I think it’s pretty good now. Why would you need to expand it if you live alone?” Lu Mingfei was a nostalgic person. The little house he had lived in for so long was about to be destroyed. It was impossible for him to have no reaction.

Patsy didn't answer immediately. She looked at him silently and smiled slightly: "Are you sure you will live alone in the future?"

Lu Mingfei looked at the cunning hidden in her smile and suddenly stopped talking.

The rare afternoon time was spent accompanying Patsy in and out of shops. According to Patsy, all the supplies for the new home were originally going to be airlifted from Italy, but Lu's mother refused.

On the grounds that this was her own home and there was no need for the Gattuso family to pay, she approved a sum of money for Patsy, and all expenses were deducted from this. And in order to spend every penny, Patsy had to personally review every material, and her dedication made Lu Mingfei feel ashamed.

After everything was done, Patsy took Lu Mingfei to a restaurant where they had made a reservation in advance for dinner.

This is a French restaurant. It is only around 4pm, which is the normal time for school and get off work. However, since it is not yet meal time, there are not many people eating at this moment.

Somewhat to Lu Mingfei's surprise, Patsy did not choose the VIP special box, but chose a seat next to the guardrail in the lobby. Beyond the guardrail was the bustling atrium of the department store, which was extremely lively because the weekend was approaching.

Patsy was looking at the menu carefully. This head maid, who was born in Italy and cooked Lucrecia's favorite Italian food, actually showed a strong interest in French cuisine, which was derived from Italian cuisine.

Lu Mingfei did not disturb Patsy. He looked to the corner of his sight, which showed that the special word "show me the flowers" was available for use.

After he became proactive, the presence of that broken plan decreased a lot. But it would always linger in front of Lu Mingfei from time to time, just like what happened now, as if it wanted to tell him in this way that it was still bothering him.

"...show me the flowers." Lu Mingfei said in a low voice. Chu Yuwei and Lucrecia already had them, so Patsy couldn't be left out either.

Lu Mingfei waited for a while, but no errand boy with flowers came to him, and no one "accidentally" released the fireworks... Just as he was wondering, Percy suddenly turned his head to look towards the atrium, his blue eyes full of surprise.

"Snowing……"
