Lu Mingfei Development Program

Chapter 462 The night is getting dark
Now that they were at the Regent Hotel, Lu Mingfei planned to go to the suite downstairs to see Patsy. The head maid had been on call at the branch for two consecutive days, and he missed her after not seeing her for a few days.

But he obviously forgot one thing. Not everyone is like him, who has the time to run to the top floor of the hotel and enjoy the cold wind so late at night.

Lucrecia booked the entire top floor of Regent, and all the rooms on the top floor were used by her and her maids. However, as the eldest lady's exclusive secretary and the head maid of the maid group, Patsy's room was in Lucrecia's suite.

By the way, the room she reserved for Lu Mingfei was also in this suite.

He opened the door with the room card. The living room of the suite was a little dim, with only a few night lights on. Naturally, there were no people. Lu Mingfei realized it late and looked at the time. He patted his forehead and thought to himself, how stupid is it to want to visit someone in the early morning?

Just as he was about to go back, the door on the side of the living room opened.

"Master?" Perhaps because it was a sunny day today, Patsy came out wearing a thin nightgown and a coat.

The lights in the living room were dim, but she still recognized Lu Mingfei standing in the dark at first sight.

"I just came back and thought of coming to see you. Sorry for disturbing your rest." Lu Mingfei said with a little self-blame.
Patsy gave him a faint smile: "No, I just went to bed too."

The graceful curves of the head maid cannot be concealed by the thin nightgown and coat, and they are even more hazy in the night. She usually wears a maid's long dress, which is elegant and classical, but conservative and heavy, and does not allow the girl to show too much youth.

Patsy didn't care how much skin or body curves the maid outfit revealed, but it was undeniable that her beauty surpassed that of most girls in the world.

"Go back and have some rest." Lu Mingfei approached her lovingly and gave her a light kiss on her moist lips.

Even in the darkness of night, he could clearly see the head maid's fatigue, which cast a shadow on her beauty. Being on duty at the branch office was obviously not so tiring, and it was more likely that something happened in the West that made her like this.

"Is it about the west?" Lu Mingfei pushed aside Patsy's hair that fell in front of her eyes so that he could see her face more clearly.

"No, everything is going well at the family end. There are no other problems except for some communication difficulties." Patsy shook her head with a smile.

She continued, "I just spent a little more energy on maintaining Misty Night Rose. This armor uses a lot of technology provided by the family. The equipment department is not familiar with it, so I need to do it myself."

Then, she suddenly remembered something and looked up at Lu Mingfei: "By the way, I just received a call from Miss Lucrecia. She has temporarily left the excavation site and communication is no longer blocked. She will probably call you around seven o'clock tomorrow morning, when she will not be asleep yet."

Lu Mingfei paused. Lucrecia didn't contact him right away, probably because she was afraid of disturbing his rest.

He sighed quietly: "I see, in fact I can contact her now."

He looked at Patsy in his arms and suddenly picked her up: "But, I will wait until you fall asleep."

Patsy was covered with a quilt, with confusion on her beautiful face. She looked at Lu Mingfei who was sitting beside the bed with some confusion: "Master, what are you doing..."

Lu Mingfei tucked the quilt for her and kissed her on the forehead: "Don't worry, I will be here until you fall asleep."

"No, I mean..." Patsy looked at her. There was a soft night light on the bedside, illuminating her blue eyes. The confusion in them was still there. "You're making it hard for me to fall asleep."

Lu Mingfei didn't expect that Patsy would be the type of person who couldn't sleep when someone was around. This wouldn't work, after all, they would have to wake up from the same bed countless days and nights in the future.

"I was negligent." Lu Mingfei suddenly realized, then bent down and kissed the head maid on the forehead again, "Is there any place you want to go? We can go together tomorrow."

Patsy looked at him with some surprise: "But, your time..."

As an insider and participant of the Nibelungen Project, she also knew that Lu Mingfei was busy with a hidden existence, and she was very clear that the latter did not have much time.

"As for time, we can always squeeze it in." Lu Mingfei suddenly felt a little guilty. He didn't feel that way when Patsy was still at home, but when she returned to the Regent Hotel, she realized that he didn't spend much time with her.

Patsy paused and said hesitantly, "There are places I want to go, but..."

"I know. Tell me when you have thought it through. I'll wait for you tomorrow." Lu Mingfei smiled at her and stood up to leave. "Then I'll go back. Rest early and don't make yourself too tired."

He did not turn off the night light, and he closed the door after he got up and went out.

After Lu Mingfei left, Patsy opened her eyes and looked around the empty room in confusion. She did not rest well as Lu Mingfei said, or rather, she was quite sleepy, but after hearing what he said just now, she was even less sleepy.

The room felt a little empty, and her heart felt a little empty. Patsy sighed faintly and asked tentatively in a certain direction: "Master?"

"...How did you find out I was still here?" The air somewhere suddenly spoke.

"It's the sound." Patsy said softly, "Your ability to hide yourself is amazing, but your breathing is still a little heavy."

Lu Mingfei was not surprised when he gave up the Word Spirit, Dark Illumination, which he wanted to try on a whim. Dark Illumination hides itself by distorting light, but the sounds and smells will still be heard.

Jiude Mai, who had received ninja training, could disguise herself better. She was born to be suitable for the dark light. Lu Mingfei did not need to do this. After all, the existence he faced could not be deceived by distorting light.

Mingzhao’s advanced level is Vajra Realm, which creates a powerful defensive barrier for the user… but unfortunately, this ability is a bit repetitive for Lu Mingfei.

Although I feel sorry for Mai Jude who worked hard all night the day before yesterday, this is the truth. Izanami once told Lu Mingfei that the duel between kings is to compare the control of power, not the number of abilities.

However, in the end, because the difference in power between the two sides is not too big, it will turn into an extremely primitive melee.

"Okay, I just wanted to try out my new ability on a whim." Lu Mingfei sat back on the bed and apologized to Patsy, "I was negligent. I think I made you even more unable to sleep."

"Master, you don't have to blame yourself. I can't fall asleep because of these random thoughts. It's because I haven't practiced concentration enough." Patsy said, and then subconsciously yawned a little. Lu Mingfei glanced at her and sighed, "If you could sleep peacefully, I would doubt myself if it was my problem that I didn't make you pay attention to it."

"How could that be?" Patsy smiled at him. "No matter what, you will always be someone I admire and someone worth devoting my life to."

She sat up and looked at Lu Mingfei silently. Her blue eyes were like a tranquil sea, so moving and gentle under the light.

Under the soft light, her figure is even more hazy. Like a black butterfly with its wings gently folded, or like Mona Lisa shrouded in a mysterious veil. Just waiting for someone to lift the veil and explore the secrets within.

Lu Mingfei was also looking at her silently. It was not an illusion, he could hear the other person's heartbeat slightly faster.

It seemed that she had never intended to hide the affection in Patsy's eyes. Regardless of her family and the Nibelungen Plan, she was willing to serve Lu Mingfei out of her own choice and would never regret it.

Lu Mingfei suddenly felt a little annoyed. He had originally planned to leave after coaxing her to sleep, and then call his fiancée whom he hadn't seen for a while. But looking at the current situation, if he really left like this, it would disappoint the head maid.

Honestly, it was inappropriate to do this for three days in a row, as it would further shatter his already precarious sense of morality. But Lu Mingfei thought that after Jiude Mai risked his life the night before and took his greedy actions a step further, it was inevitable that something like this would happen again.

Some people have no intention to rest, and some people have no intention to leave. If you don't do something, it will be too unfair to this dark night.

Lu Mingfei gently stroked Patsy's soft cheek under the light, and the latter accepted his caress with a smile, graceful and moving. Such a gentle feeling is not uncommon on the bright faces of Western girls.

But before Lu Mingfei, she could see this smile almost every day. Yes, if a girl doesn't really like you, why would she always smile gently every time she sees you?
"The weather has started to get colder." Lu Mingfei put his palm down, and his fingertips felt the extremely good roundness of the shoulder. He moved lightly, brushing off the light veil covering it, so as to feel the delicateness at close range.

"What... do you want to say?" Patsy shuddered slightly, and a layer of pink appeared on her fair skin.

Her skin color was much whiter than that of an oriental girl, and at this moment it was glowing red, which was indescribably attractive. Lu Mingfei was a little surprised, as he had only seen this on Chen Wenwen.

Although Patsy's face wasn't as red as the weird classmate's, her reddish complexion made people even more curious.

"It's cold, you shouldn't wear such thin clothes." Lu Mingfei said softly, placing the gauze-like nightgown on the bedside.

Patsy panted softly, "...But it will be even colder this way."

"No, it will be warm." Lu Mingfei said softly, then reached out to turn off the night light on the bedside.

He didn't care about the lights, but Patsy looked a little bad at the moment. Lu Mingfei was also a little surprised that the head maid, who always maintained a dignified posture and showed her best side, was the least dignified one at this moment.

If she were to see the bad look on her face at this moment and hide shyly under the quilt and not come out, it would only make Lu Mingfei feel even more uncomfortable.

In the darkness, Lu Mingfei gently embraced the head maid who had given her everything. “To be honest, this is not what I planned to do today.”

This was the truth. After all, after three days of this, his precarious sense of morality felt a little guilty. Moreover, the love and care that the tired Patsy needed was not this kind of love and care.

“…Isn’t life full of surprises?” Patsy sighed deeply, then leaned over to Lu Mingfei’s ear and whispered, “I probably never thought that I would give everything I have to someone.”

"I'm a little curious, what were you thinking at that time?" Lu Mingfei asked casually.

Patsy blocked his mouth, sighed again, and then smiled slightly: "Master, this is not the way to reveal a girl's dark history. What kind of attitude do you think a girl with not much time left to live can have towards life?"

Lu Mingfei broke free and kissed the slightly opened mouth that sighed movingly: "I am very fortunate to have met you first in the depths of the Nibelung. Otherwise, I would not be able to bear the thought of such a perfect girl dying alone..."

Patsy blocked his mouth again, her blue eyes full of love: "I am also very lucky to meet you when I was most desperate."

"Master, please don't speak." She said softly, no longer tired, "Please accept my service..."

……

Outside the window, the night was thick and the wind was howling, as if foreshadowing that the cold current that would come tomorrow would be incomparable to the cold weather that had come before. Lu Mingfei had forgotten how long it had been since Sunan had such a cold night.

He turned his head and saw the head maid sleeping with her arms around his. Her face was peaceful and there was no trace of fatigue.

Lu Mingfei smiled silently and caressed her smooth cheek lovingly. Although the process was a little off, his goal was still achieved, and Patsy could indeed sleep well tonight.

After making sure that he would not wake up the sleeping head maid, Lu Mingfei carefully pulled his hand out and kissed her forehead. Then he stood up, put on a coat casually, and quietly left the room.

Without turning on the light in the living room, the dim light from the mobile phone screen illuminated Lu Mingfei's profile. He pressed the number that he had been calling recently but could not answer.

After a few beeps, the girl's somewhat surprised voice came from the other side: "Do you know how happy and surprised I was when I saw the caller ID was yours?"

Lu Mingfei smiled slightly: "Pasi told me that your communication has been normal recently."

"Are you with Patsy now?" Lucrecia was not surprised by this. What surprised her was, "Are you still not sleeping at this late hour?"

"After hearing what Patsy said about you, I couldn't sleep because I kept thinking about it. I might as well give you a call while it's still daylight over there," said Lu Mingfei.

There was a sudden silence for a long time, and then Lucrecia sighed: "...I missed you."

"I miss you too." Lu Mingfei said softly.
