Chapter 50: Chapter 50: Lowering the Noble Head
"Father, how can our family keep a butler like this?" i Lin Dais was completely stunned after learning about everything the butler had done.
She had wanted Jiang Qiuqiu to quit livestreaming in the Federation. Her instructions were to throw money at the problem—to see how much it would take for that commoner to go away.
But what had he done? Used the Dais Family’s power to oppress a commoner like that?!
If word of this got out, what would the other socialites think of her?
He even casually talked about slitting throats and spoke of killing with such ease. Who knew if he had taken a life sowhere? She, i Lin Dais, absolutely could not keep such a person by her side.
i Lin’s father felt it was a small matter. It was just replacing a butler, after all. "But i Lin, are you sure you won’t regret it after you get rid of him?"
This butler had been with i Lin for five or six years. Once dismissed, his loyalty would be gone. If they wanted to hire him back in the future, it wouldn’t be the sa.
"How could I possibly regret replacing a butler?!" i Lin’s expression was full of disdain. "I’ve decided to fire him. From now on, I’ll have my executive officer handle all my affairs."
"Well then, Daughter. As long as you’ve decided."
And so, that very night, the vicious butler was thrown out of the Dais Family estate. No matter how he wailed and scread that it was impossible, he was still expelled from the Federation Main Star by the Dais Family Head.
That night, the proud Miss ilin found Jiang Qiuqiu’s livestream channel.
Her butler had actually tornted a commoner like that and had even made her feel guilty toward one. What a completely useless butler.
She snorted coldly, clicked into Jiang Qiuqiu’s livestream channel, and planned to send a donation to compensate her with money.
But she soon discovered that Jiang Qiuqiu wasn’t streaming today. Instead, she had opened a strange showcase.
...
Whatever. She clicked into the showcase, bought sothing at random, and after tacking on a 1,000,000 Star Coin tip, i Lin left Jiang Qiuqiu’s hopage.
After exiting the terminal, a small holographic box was projected onto her desk. i Lin was about to delete it, but her curiosity was piqued.
’What exactly has a lowly commoner done to attract so many people?’
’Could the food really be that good?’
She reached out her hands.
At that mont, i Lin thought she was just opening a box, but she didn’t know it was the alluring Pandora—
This was the first dish Jiang Qiuqiu had put up in her showcase: the Fried Gugu Cutlet that many people had asked her to bring back.
The aroma of fried food needs no description; it flooded the air the mont the box was opened. i Lin couldn’t control herself and took a bite of the fried cutlet.
In that instant, she understood many things.
The next day, the executive officer, having taken over the butler’s duties, ca to discuss with i Lin the matter of managing her image as the number one gourt socialite.
After so deep and painful reflection, i Lin said with a grave expression, "I’m going to change our operational direction."
"?" The executive officer was completely baffled.
i Lin said, "I want to beco the most beautiful and noble epicure."
"Let’s not fight for first place on that list anymore."
"My lady, this is...?" the executive officer asked, cautiously probing for details.
"It’s nothing. Just do as I say." ’Does he expect
to go and humiliate myself?’
’Besides, why should I compete in cooking? I am the daughter of the Federation’s noblest Duke! I don’t want to compete in cooking!’
Yesterday, after eating the commoner’s food and then her own, she had let out a sound of surrender.
She lost.
In this one aspect, she had been thoroughly defeated by a commoner.
