Samuel looked at the sweeping old man in shock and said incredulously, "You want me to cook for this woman?"
The sweeping old man chuckled and said, "You cook. I'll arrange a bed for her."
After that, the sweeping old man looked at Lu Ruoxin and said, "How many days do you want to stay here? It happens that it will take Samuel days."
This old man must be crazy!
Samuel was speechless. It was one thing to cook for this woman, but why should she stay here? Who was she? She was the daughter of the Lu family, his mortal enemy!
Thinking of this, Samuel hurriedly pulled the sweeping old man aside and whispered, "Senior, do you know that woman..."
"Of course I know. However, staying here is the most helpful thing for you, Samuel."
"What can she do for me? If she didn't kill me in the middle of the night when I was asleep, I would be satisfied," Samuel said anxiously.
"Three days, just three days. I can guarantee that she will make you feel at ease and bring you endless surprises, even if she is your enemy." After that, the sweeping old man patted Samuel on the shoulder and returned to the dining table with a smile.
Samuel stood there like a block of wood. He didn't understand what the old man meant. And how did he know that he had a grudge against Lu Ruoxin? And why did he say those words when he knew?
Surprise? Rest assured?
Samuel never thought so. On the contrary, in the eyes of Samuel, this woman would only bring him endless shock and uneasiness.
However, since the sweeping old man had said so, Samuel had to do as he said. First, he believed in the sweeping old man, and second, he owed the sweeping old man a favor, so Samuel had to listen to him.
Samuel fiddled in the kitchen for a long time gloomily. The more he cooked, the more depressed he became. Sometimes, he even wanted to poison Lu Ruoxin to death in the dishes.
However, Samuel was not such a sinister villain. Moreover, he was quite curious about the sweeping old man's words. What kind of surprise and peace could Lu Ruoxin bring to him?
What right did she have?
By the time he finished cooking the dishes and returned to the room, the old man had already made up the bed in the inner room.
"You will stay in the inner room tonight." The old man smiled.
Samuel frowned. "We?"
"Yes, you and Miss Lu."
"Miss Lu has decided to stay here for three days."
"I've eaten it." At this time, Lu Ruoxin put down her chopsticks, glanced coldly at Samuel, got up, and said to the sweeping old man, "Then I'll go to rest first."
The old man nodded, moved his hand, and all the bowls and chopsticks on the table disappeared.
Lu Ruoxin also got up and went back to the room inside.
Only then did Samuel sit up and say, "Senior, what did you do to her? This woman looks down on others. Is she willing to stay in a place like ours for three days?"
"What did I do to her?" The old man smiled and said, "If you want to say so, just barely. Maybe you are the key."
After that, he looked at the Eight Desolations Heavenly Book with a smile and said, "It seems that it's time for us to rest."
The Eight Desolations Heavenly Book smiled and said, "Yes, I should rest early. I'm afraid I can't sleep at midnight."
After that, they smiled at each other and glanced at Samuel with a strange look. Then they walked into their rooms, leaving Samuel alone in the living room?
In the middle of the night?
What did he mean?
