Chapter 659

~7 min read 1,292 words

As an excellent butler, one should possess the following skills:

Household management skills.

Organizational skills.

Interpersonal communication skills.

Culinary and catering management.

For the last item, Paimon doesn't have culinary skills, and as for catering management... she knows how to eat, so she barely counts as half.

Paimon prides herself on being an excellent little butler; she is proficient in calculating the stamina of Gu Chen and the mistresses of the house.

At this very moment.

Based on past experience, Paimon can conclude that Gu Chen will wake up at eight-thirty at the earliest, and then he won't disturb his exhausted wives; he will first check the group chat for a while and then possibly surf the internet.

Then, starting at ten o'clock, people will wake up one after another, and the last one will wake up before eleven-thirty.

This is the experience Paimon has summarized, and so far, she hasn't miscalculated a single time.

It is currently eight o'clock in the morning.

There is still plenty of time, but as an excellent little butler, how could she have procrastination?

Paimon has purchased today's breakfast—or lunch, if you prefer—according to the dietary preferences of Lumine, Hu Tao, and Furina.

As for Gu Chen... honestly, Paimon has discovered that Gu Chen's taste is very unique.

Or rather, he doesn't have any preferences when it comes to food; he doesn't seem to be picky about anything.

But in every video, Gu Chen's preferences are different. Paimon wonders if it's because Gu Chen has too many fragments, filling in the gaps one by one, eventually forming a perfect, non-picky Gu Chen?

The more she thinks about it, the more she feels it's possible.

Although Paimon feels it's likely the case, she won't be perfunctory; she still picked the types of food Gu Chen usually eats.

Then she sends a message to tell Gu Chen that she has prepared food, and then packs all the food into a red envelope and leaves it in the chat box, and that's it.

After doing all this, Paimon slowly gets up, washes up, and eats breakfast.

After finishing her chores, Paimon takes the elevator downstairs.

In the past, if she wasn't following Lumine or other acquaintances, Paimon wouldn't dare to go too far, for fear of getting lost or encountering danger.

But now, Paimon doesn't have such concerns.

The changes brought by the Exposure System are too many.

The changes in Paimon's life alone are enormous.

Nowadays, Paimon has also become a Teyvat star, and everyone has a good impression of this little flying pet.

Such a celebrity—unless someone is insane, who would think of harming Paimon?

Even if she encountered someone insane, Paimon could shout in the group and immediately receive support; she isn't afraid at all.

Furthermore, there are standard 3D maps uploaded by group members in the group; as long as it's a place a person can reach or see, it's on the map, so she doesn't fear getting lost in unfamiliar places.

Flying slowly, Paimon arrives in the lobby.

"Paimon, good morning."

Paimon hears the voice and looks over; it's Sedene, the Melusine stationed at the Palais Mermonia.

"Good morning, Sedene!" Paimon greets her enthusiastically.

"Are you going out to play?" Sedene asks curiously.

"I'm not really sure, just woke up in the morning and had nothing to do, so I'm walking around," Paimon chuckles.

"So that's how it is," Sedene says after understanding: "I still have work to do here, so I'll go to work first."

"Okay!"

Paimon nods.

Flying along, she arrives at Neuvillette's office. As soon as she enters, Paimon sees Neuvillette with a calm expression, seemingly checking some files.

"Paimon? Morning."

Noticing Paimon, Neuvillette nods in greeting.

"Morning to you too. You weren't dragged off to play cards last night, were you?" Paimon asks with concern.

Neuvillette shakes his head and says: "I was indeed invited to compare card skills last night, but I declined on the grounds that I had a trial to handle today."

"I'm happy for you." Paimon says with a smile, hands behind her back.

Neuvillette smiles and says: "I really am not suited for that kind of entertainment with them... Mr. Zhongli even seems to show signs of being led astray; Mr. Venti's infectiousness is truly terrifying..."

"That's just how he is," Paimon agrees deeply.

"However, dealing with them is also suitable for my growth; in the future, if I encounter similar situations in court, I will be able to see things more clearly," Neuvillette says seriously.

"I see." Paimon is thoughtful.

Seeing that Neuvillette still has work to do, Paimon says: "I won't disturb you anymore; I'm going out to play."

"Good." Neuvillette nods and urges: "If you are going to the wilderness, remember to be careful; it's best to call a few friends to go with you."

"Don't worry, I won't run off to the wilderness!" Paimon nods.

After leaving the Palais Mermonia, Paimon starts wandering around the Court of Fontaine.

In the Gu residence, there is no such thing as anyone managing the money.

Last time, Aether sent a large amount of Mora, and in addition, the mistresses each have their own small treasury; even those who don't are the type who don't spend much Mora anyway, so when they need to spend Mora, they just ask Paimon.

Because usually only Paimon goes to wander in the warehouse piled with Mora, and when she sees the shiny Mora, the little money-grubber becomes very happy.

Gu Chen has never placed any restrictions on his family in this regard; he spoils Paimon, the little guide, even more, letting her spend the Mora in the warehouse as she pleases.

With Mora in her pocket, she is, of course, confident as she wanders around.

Paimon never spends Mora lavishly in other areas; only when it comes to food does she open her stomach and feast.

What seems like a large expense to ordinary people is only a concern for whether Paimon is full in the eyes of the Gu residence.

After wandering for two hours, feeling that she had exercised enough, Paimon slowly flew back to the Palais Mermonia.

Returning to the lobby of the Palais Mermonia, Paimon found a quiet spot to sit and opened the chat group.

【Cyno】: Playing Genius Invokation TCG online really isn't as satisfying as in reality. (Annoyed)

【Tighnari】: You can play cards with others without leaving your house; you should be happy. (Cyno? Sweat)

【Cyno】: Do you understand the satisfaction of slamming your card onto the table at the last moment to finish off your opponent?! You will never understand how satisfying it is to see your opponent's frustration with your own eyes! (Cyno? Duel)

【Collei】: I remember you weren't like this before... (Collei? No response)

【Cyno】: It must be contagious from this group!

【Kaeya】: Good kid, you're blaming everything on the group, aren't you? (Nahida? Pointing)

【Dvalin】: It must be Venti's doing! (Certain)

【Gu Chen】: Right, it must be the influence of free will on Cyno; it's definitely Venti's problem! (Funny)

【Azhdaha】: You guys are just taking advantage of Venti being knocked out by the old man and not waking up yet to smear him. (Funny)

【Zhongli】: Don't smear me; I'm only six thousand years old. Compared to the Sect Leader, I'm still a youngster. (Zhongli? Long Wang smirk)

【Dvalin】: Mr. Zhongli, I must criticize you; why didn't you broadcast such a good thing in the group last night? (Annoyed)

【Zhongli】: (Video of beating Venti 17s)

【Dvalin】: Good to watch, love to watch, post more!

【Shikanoin Heizou】: Speaking of which, the time for the fan-creation series update is coming soon, right? Is there a fan-creation series this time? (Urgent)

【Azhdaha】: Kid, be careful of being 'created' to death. (Nahida? Pointing)
