Chapter 8

“No, no, no, you’re the one.”

The maid in front of her seemed to have made up her mind.

She walked straight up to Su Ye, sizing her up from head to toe. Then, with a gulp, she said, “You’re so beautiful! If you wore a maid outfit, you’d definitely be very popular.”

“No, please don’t.”

Su Ye’s sense of embarrassment shot through the roof.

“Why not? Are you shy? Don’t worry, the guests here are really nice. You’ve been standing in front of the hiring sign for quite a while, and we’re short on staff. This is the dinner rush, so the pay can be extra.”

“I’m a minor.”

Seeing that the woman was about to push her, Su Ye quickly protested.

“It’s fine, you’re not a regular employee. Just act like the other maids and serve the customers—help them have fun a bit, like a waitress. No problem.”

Without waiting for Su Ye to respond, the woman grabbed her and started pulling her inside.

Once in the changing room, the beautiful maid quickly handed her a maid outfit.

“We don’t force anyone to work here. You can decide now whether you want to join. How does 100 yuan an hour sound?”

“100 yuan… Can you set the price?” Su Ye asked, surprised.

“I’m the owner of this place,” the woman replied.

“Ah…”

100 yuan an hour? That was incredibly tempting.

But…

“It’s okay, there are many types of maid jobs. Since this is your first time, all you need to do is serve drinks and tea, like a waitress.”

“Is that all? Can I not call them ‘master’?”

“It’s better if you do, but it’s just a title.”

Su Ye: “…”

Thinking about the potential tips, she gritted her teeth and finally decided… to give it a try.

“I’ll give it a shot.”

“Great! Try it on.”

The manager seemed to have made up her mind to have Su Ye work here.

Before long, Su Ye found herself wearing a maid outfit that was very attractive but surprisingly complicated to put on.

Since she was already wearing black stockings, she didn’t need to change the ones on her legs.

Standing in front of the mirror, looking at herself, Su Ye felt a little flustered.

“My God, what kind of divine beauty is this? I swear, you’re the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen in my life.”

The maid owner circled around her, practically drooling.

“Now, I’ll…”

“Time’s ticking! Go wherever you’re needed. Help out where you can,” the manager said, giving Su Ye a light push.

The next second, Su Ye found herself nervously standing in the main hall.

She had to admit, the quality of the maids in this place was exceptional. Each of them had top-notch features, and the décor of the café was quite atmospheric—blue lights, glass decorations, it looked like a crystal palace.

Most of the customers were men, with a few women scattered here and there.

As soon as Su Ye stepped out, a nearby maid quickly ran over to her.

“Nothing to do for now? You see that counter? If there’s anything on the trays with numbers, just take it to the corresponding table.” Without waiting for Su Ye to reply, the maid hurried off.

“The business here is really good.”

Su Ye barely stood there for half a minute before a tray of “Love Fruit Platters” arrived.

Table 5.

She immediately walked over.

Taking the tray, Su Ye took a deep breath and carefully walked toward the designated table.

Soon, a young man in his twenties came into view.

He was looking down, reading a menu with pictures of maids on it.

When he saw the long, enticing legs in black stockings approaching, he instinctively looked up.

“Sir, here’s the Love Fruit Platter you ordered.”

Su Ye held the tray in front of him, suppressing her discomfort.

The man seemed to freeze for a moment, and just as Su Ye was about to leave, he quickly said, “Could you sit with me for a while?”

“No.” Su Ye’s expression was cold.

Her blunt refusal left the man completely stunned.

Honestly, this was the first time he had encountered such an unfriendly maid at a maid café.

But… she was so beautiful!

She was just perfect, from head to toe, exuding that irresistible feminine charm that made him fall for her at first sight.

“I’ll pay.” The man straightened up in his chair. “Just sit next to me for a while, that’s all.”

Su Ye thought of the 20,000 yuan in tips from the simulation and felt tempted.

But to sacrifice her dignity for that? Absolutely not.

“Fine.”

She coldly responded, then reluctantly sat beside him, clearly uncomfortable.

“So, what would you like me to do?”

“Please… sing me a song, or hold my hand.” The man slowly extended his arm toward her.

Oh my God.

“No, stay away from me.” Su Ye recoiled slightly, looking visibly disgusted.

When the man’s hand reached out toward her, she instinctively dodged.

“Sir, I’m very sorry, I don’t like being touched by men.”

“Ah, sorry.”

The man was disappointed, but still oddly excited.

Then, seeing that her hand was just out of reach, he tried again, this time attempting to grab her thigh under the table. Su Ye immediately gave him a disgusted look and stepped back. “Sorry, I need to go now.”

Without another word, she left the table.

She couldn’t take it anymore.

Fortunately, the next few customers were more normal.

After enduring for an hour, she finally made her way to the owner’s side.

“Can I leave now?”

“My God, leave? A customer just tipped you 20,000 yuan! Since it’s your first time, I won’t take a share of the money, you can keep it all. Oh, and that customer said he really liked your expression of disgust but helplessness, he said it really turned him on. He even joked about wanting to ‘bully’ you next time. Maybe you could try that next time, just act like that?”

“No, no thank you.” Su Ye quickly rejected the idea. “I’ve had enough.”

“Don’t be so cold-hearted! Come on, open your phone, I’ll transfer the money to you.” The maid owner laughed mischievously.

In the end…

Su Ye received the money, plus her 100 yuan salary.

She had to admit, the money was too easy to make.

But ultimately, it was her looks and demeanor that made it possible.

“That guy was such a creep, talking about liking my disgusted expression…”

However, considering the 20,000 yuan and the fact that he didn’t touch her, Su Ye couldn’t be bothered to complain anymore.

After all, when you work in a place like this, encountering a few weirdos is inevitable.

After receiving her earnings, Su Ye was ready to leave.

“Goodbye, little cutie. Don’t forget to come back!” The maid manager waved at her.

If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

No chance.

Su Ye muttered to herself as she walked out through the front door.

She hadn’t forgotten what happened in the simulator, so she carefully circled around the side of the building and peered cautiously into the alley behind.

“As expected, they’re there.”

Cheng Hui and two other strangers.

Most importantly, as her gaze wandered further, she spotted a man standing there, smoking, waiting idly.

“Probably one of their accomplices.”

As she thought this, a few faint words of conversation reached her ears.

“Tomorrow morning at 8 a.m., Hinton Hotel. Don’t go to school. Take the day off.”

“Got it.”

Su Ye frowned slightly, realizing that she was currently too weak to confront them. She immediately turned around and left, stepping out of sight from the front entrance.

She hesitated for a moment but decided to head to a hotel near the school to spend the night.

She couldn’t go home.

Though it wouldn’t be an issue sneaking into the school at this time, if she were caught, there was still a risk.

So, with her ID in hand, she went to a hotel 300 meters from the campus.

The female receptionist stared at the girl in awe.

After booking a single room, Su Ye shut the door and collapsed onto the bed, exhausted.

“Tonight… why did I have to die? And who or what was that knocking on the door?”

This question was so serious.

It was the reason she found it difficult to sleep that night.

Time ticked by, and before she knew it, it was midnight.

A new day had arrived.

“Phew, no one’s knocking on the door.”

She breathed a sigh of relief.

Her next simulation could begin.

【Otherworld Simulation (Feature Update)】

【Reality Life Simulation】

Su Ye, who had originally planned to do a reality simulation, suddenly saw the words “Feature Update” on the screen.

Without thinking, she instinctively clicked on it.

【Otherworld Simulation now includes Immersion Mode.】

【You can fully experience and control your life in an alternate world.】

“Such a feature exists?”

Remembering her previous experience where she played a princess in another world, she suddenly felt that the otherworld simulation might be more exciting.

At least, with her current lack of power, it seemed difficult to make significant progress in the real world.

After all, the ice needle magic had come from that other world.

“Then, today’s simulation will be one in the otherworld and one in reality.”

Su Ye made her decision.

【Cost: 500 plot points. Welcome to the Otherworld Simulation.】

【Random world generation in progress…】

【Determining fantasy coordinates, preparation underway.】

【Based on the rules of this world, you can choose from the following identities.】

【1. Slave: No plot points required.】

【2. Common Family: 10–200 plot points.】

【3. Special or Noble Family: 201–1000 plot points.】

【4. Higher-level identity (conditions not met).】

【Please choose your cultivation aptitude:】

【1. No Aptitude: No plot points required.】

【2. Weak Aptitude: 10–1000 plot points.】

【3. Strong Aptitude: 2000–10,000 plot points.】

【4. Genius: 20,000–100,000 plot points.】

【5. Higher-level aptitude (conditions not met).】

【Note: You have no aptitude in the real world, but any increase in the simulation will affect your physical condition in reality to some extent.】

“So this also costs points…”

Su Ye calculated that with the 195 points she had left, the best she could afford was either a common family or weak aptitude.

“Well, at least there should be a chance, right?”

She decided to allocate 25 points for the common family and 150 points for weak aptitude, leaving the rest for talent.

Randomizing your talent (choose one from the following 5 options):

【Paradise Thoughts (White): You are happier. Happiness +2.】

【Pure Soul (Green): Your soul is exceptionally pure, granting greater potential in both spirit and soul. Memory +1.】

【Protection Aura (White): May provide some protective benefits.】

【Masochist (White): You enjoy being mistreated.】

【Clever Hands (White): You have dexterous hands.】

“I’ll choose Pure Soul.”

For some reason, she thought green was probably better than white.

Besides, given that she was skilled in meditation and calming techniques, this choice might enhance her abilities.

【You have chosen the talent: Pure Soul (Green).】

【You will be born with Weak Aptitude in a Common Family.】

【Activate Immersion Mode?】

“Yes!”

【Selection complete. The simulation officially begins:】

【You are born at 0 years old…】

The scene around her suddenly shifted, and Su Ye felt like she had become someone else.

“Wah…”

The sound of a baby crying broke the silence.

“She’s here, the baby’s born, it’s a girl!”

In a shabby room, the excited midwife picked up the baby.

The woman lying on the bed was weak, but upon hearing the cries of the girl, she couldn’t help but smile in joy.

“Let’s call her Su Ye.”

Little Su Ye’s new life had begun.

She felt a bit disoriented. It hadn’t occurred to her that the so-called Immersion Mode meant she was becoming a completely new identity.

This was far more real than an experience card.

Indeed, the 10-minute experience card was better suited for reality simulations.

To be honest, she was still a bit excited about experiencing life in another world.

But at the moment, as a baby, she realized she couldn’t do much. Most of the time, she just wanted to sleep.

The language of the people around her was completely unintelligible. She could only stare curiously with her wide eyes at the world around her.

Days passed, and little Su Ye slowly became aware that her learning ability was very poor.

With an intelligence stat of 3, learning was much harder for her than it would be for an average person. Thankfully, babies had a strong capacity for learning, so unlike her past self, who couldn’t do simple arithmetic at age 10, she could at least remember a few simple words.

With nothing else to do in her free time, she decided to meditate.

Meditation in this fantasy world had its effects greatly reduced, but it still provided some benefit. She found that after practicing, she could effectively substitute meditation for sleep, gaining more time to think.

And in that extra time, she began practicing her calming techniques.

As expected, these abilities worked across all worlds. Even with poor aptitude, after a few months of practice, Su Ye could feel the energy flow in her body strengthening.

With every cycle of energy flowing through her limbs, she experienced a strange and wonderful sensation.

Her spirit improved, and sometimes, when she closed her eyes, she could even sense something unusual around her body.
