Chapter 103: – A Group of Idiots
Filled with resentnt, Lin Jin woke up the next day and stared blankly at his "little brother" that had once again beco much smaller. Sighing, he could only comfort himself with the excuse that he wouldn't need it for the ti being.
"Damn it, I'm obviously getting taller and more handso, and quite a few girls in class are starting to notice , but I'm destined to beco more and more effeminate..."
It was painful.
He had no classes in the morning, but he had classes in the afternoon and even in the evening, so Lin Jin only planned to go to work for two hours during lunchti.
After all, two hours of wages were thirty yuan, enough for so late-night snacks, so it wasn't a loss. But after only two days of work, Lin Jin had started to hate this job. He thought he had lost all his integrity when confessing to Chen Hao, but the sha of being a maid still made him feel uncomfortable.
Even though calling people "Master" and the like had beco a habit, Lin Jin still felt a strong sense of sha after working, almost like the so-called "post nut clarity."
Lin Jin's recent schedule had been very regular. Although the school's internet was cut off at 11 pm, he usually fell asleep just after 10 pm, sleeping for a full ten hours. If undisturbed, he could sleep until about 8 am.
He didn't know if it was because of the black cat, but Lin Jin used to be the kind of person who was so playful that no matter how sleepy he was, he wanted to play on the computer. He could feel sleepy at 8 pm, but still forcefully resist the sleepiness until the internet was cut off before considering sleep. But now, as soon as he felt sleepy, he would want to sleep at all costs.
"You're up so early?" Wu Min noticed Lin Jin getting up and suddenly spoke, startling Lin Jin into almost reflexively throwing a punch.
"What's wrong with you?" Lin Jin glared at him, only to find that Wu Min, lying in bed, had heavy dark circles under his eyes and looked completely haggard, as if he hadn't slept for days. "Didn't you sleep last night?"
"I couldn't sleep."
Wu Min turned over and lay on the bed, looking up at Lin Jin. "I've been a bit insomniac lately, and your snoring was a bit loud last night."
"That's just because I was too tired" Lin Jin rolled his eyes.
Normally, Lin Jin wouldn't snore. In any case, his roommates had never ntioned it before, but if he snored last night, it must have been because he was too tired from his part-ti job.
"Are you thinking about your ex-girlfriend again?" Work was from 10 to 12, so Lin Jin was not in a hurry to go out, and he didn't plan to have breakfast, so he hadn't gotten out of bed. He looked up at Wu Min and asked, "You still can't forget her after a week? When I broke up from a relationship before, I cried all night the first day, and then forgot about it the next day."
"That's because you dated in junior high, and it only lasted three months" Wu Min's voice was very weak, and his tone was flat, obviously from a lack of sleep. "What did you know back then? My girlfriend and I were together for almost three years."
"Hmm, well, there are those who break up after dating for over a decade" Lin Jin pouted. He didn't think much about comforting Wu Min after completing the task related to him, just offering so casual words of comfort as a roommate, "Why not find another girlfriend? That girl called Feng Jing likes you, doesn't she?"
"That would be kind of sleazy" Wu Min didn't agree with Lin Jin's suggestion. "Don't you think it's sleazy to find a replacent to get over my ex-girlfriend?"
"It is a bit" Lin Jin agreed readily. "But what's that got to do with ? You'd be the sleazy one, not ."
After a brief conversation, Lin Jin decisively got out of bed and casually ntioned, "If my performance at the New Year's Eve gala goes well, I'll take you all to KTV."
"Why are you suddenly being so generous?" Wu Min popped his head out from the bed fra, looking down at Lin Jin. "What counts as 'going well'? The whole online forum posting about you?"
"As long as I think it's good, that's enough."
Within a week, even if he only worked two hours a day, Lin Jin could make over two hundred a month, if not more. With the additional three hundred he got for his likeness from Sister Chen, he could make nearly a thousand this week at the restaurant. Already on his way to becoming a bit of a tycoon, Lin Jin wouldn't be stingy about spending a few hundred on KTV entertainnt, especially since he could earn at least a thousand from the New Year's Eve gala task.
Hmm, mainly, he wanted to change his image as a money-grubber.
"Lin Jin." The back door was open, and Lin Xin, a fellow townsman, ran over. Standing by the back door, he said to Lin Jin, who was staring blankly at his computer, "The maid café you were looking for a few days ago is really popular now. How was it when you went there last ti?"
"Not great, it was closed when I went" Lin Jin rolled his eyes, surprised that Lin Xin even knew about the maid café.
"Shall we go take a look soti?"
"No, I'm busy."
"Whatever."
If Lin Jin rembered correctly, Lin Xin wasn't interested in maid or otaku culture, but today he was suddenly asking about it...
Could it be that he's like Wen Xuan and has realized that the maid in the photo is ?
Lin Jin frowned, realizing that things might not be as simple as he had thought.
Since both Wen Xuan and Wu Min could recognize him, other classmates might at least notice that the maid in the picture on the online forum resembles Lin Jin. With a bit more scrutiny, they might actually recognize him.
At that point, the rumor around the entire dormitory building might change from "there's a top-notch femboy on the fourth floor who likes n" to "there's a top-notch femboy on the fourth floor who likes to dress as a maid."
Damn it, this doesn't seem good at all.
The front door of the dormitory was unlocked, and a head peeked in, quickly spotting Lin Jin.
"Boss! Boss! I saw a maid on the forum who looks just like you!" Zhuang Yuqing, excitedly holding his phone, walked in. He stared at Lin Jin and suddenly froze.
"What's the big deal? So you saw soone who looks like , why tell ?" Lin Jin sensed Zhuang Yuqing's thoughts, slightly frowned, and helplessly turned his head to show only his profile to Zhuang Yuqing.
"No, it's just that, Boss, you seem to have beco much more beautiful..."
Zhuang Yuqing looked as though he'd seen a ghost, his facial expression exaggerated, eyes wide: "Is Hearthstone Boss evolving into Femboy Boss?"
"Get lost!" Lin Jin glared at him nacingly. "Spit it out if you have sothing to say!"
"Uh..." Zhuang Yuqing suddenly realized his words might have been inappropriate. To avoid upsetting Lin Jin further, he quickly shook his head, indicating he had nothing else to say. "Co to my dorm to help
with the Arena when you have ti. That's it, I'm off to deliver takeout now."
"Freak." Lin Jin helplessly watched Zhuang Yuqing leave and sighed deeply.
It seed many people had noticed that the maid in the forum looked a lot like him.
A head suddenly popped out of the back door: "Hey, Lin Jin, I noticed that the maid on the forum looks a lot like you."
"Cai Jianlai! Will you just drop dead?!"
Enraged, Lin Jin picked up a chair and threatened Cai Jianlai, who was standing at the back door: "Everyone who cos in, ask
about this maid! Have you all lost your minds?"
Damn it! A bunch of idiots!
Translator’s Note: Junior high is grades 7 to 9, so roughly ages 12-15.
