Zervanie’s eyes were fixed, focused on every smiling person walking down the street.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn found this side of her interesting. He thought maybe this method could work for himself too—maybe he could learn how to make a smile as perfect as Zervanie’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A couple passed by in front of them. Their fingers were interlocked, their hands carrying shopping bags, their faces glowing with happy smiles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whenever Zervanie observed someone’s expression, she always took off her mask. She said it affected the accuracy of replicating a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn made a mental note.Accuracy, huh? Isn’t that just copying someone else’s expression?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Very soon, Felyn witnessed firsthand how terrifying Zervanie’s skill really was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just moments ago she’d been expressionless, but after a few twitches at the corner of her mouth, it was like she’dcopiedthat couple’s smiles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boy’s happiness and the girl’s shyness flowed across Zervanie’s face like a slideshow—seamless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Okay… that was kinda scary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hoo~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the couple walked away, Zervanie let out a long breath and visibly relaxed her shoulders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She gently rubbed her cheeks. Mimicking people’s expressions was exhausting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A strand of silver hair slipped down her shoulder, hanging in front of her chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She turned slightly and noticed Felyn’s gaze was locked on her mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Felyn looking at her like that, Zervanie’s heartbeat subtly sped up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes darted sideways, and then—a smile appeared on her face that Felyn knew all too well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The corners of her eyes rose just slightly, and her lips curled into a precise smile—his signature smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The one he’d practiced for months to perfect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Zervanie, how’d you do that? You even stole my smile!” Felyn recognized it and was a little surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zervanie, flattered by his praise, placed both hands on the edges of the bench. Her long legs swayed lightly in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Because… because it’s your smile, Felyn. So I’ve always kept it in my heart.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She lowered her head, and her voice grew quieter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“These past few months, I’ve been practicing your smile in the mirror every day. Just like you were still beside me...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh? What’d you say?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Nothing!!” Zervanie panicked, waving her hands. Her voice was eight pitches higher than usual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn finally finished his drink.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was still some time left before lunch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching Zervanie scan every passerby like a Transformer copying a car, Felyn didn’t feel bored at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Felyn, are you staying in Homhot this afternoon too?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah, I’m meeting someone.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was his date with Viloti.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Zervanie had fallen on him earlier, his clothes had picked up a faint trace of her perfume—and her shampoo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had to hurry and buy some new cologne to cover her scent, or Viloti might notice and get upset.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn treated his time with Viloti as work, so of course he had to take it seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t afford to slack off just because the client was Viloti. That would slowly erode his professional boundaries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A girl?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course. I don’t do guys.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zervanie felt extremely conflicted inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On one hand, she was upset that Felyn was going to spend time with another female client.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, she was happy he was answering her questions so openly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, happiness won out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Summary: hearing that Felyn was going to be with another girl somehow made Zervanie happy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...Kind of weird?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t even think about following me. I only agreed to stay with you for the morning. You should go back to work in the afternoon. Your fans are still waiting for you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zervanie mumbled, “I don’t care about my fans anymore... Don’t chase me off…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn didn’t hear it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was already noon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sun was blazing with full force, like it wanted to roast all of Homhot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zervanie fanned herself with her hand. Fine beads of sweat had appeared on her delicate face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fabric shade wasn’t doing much to protect against this heat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So hot…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She whispered, using her slender fingers to lift the hair stuck to the back of her neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn couldn’t help but glance at her. A single bead of sweat trickled slowly along her pale neck, down her graceful neckline, and disappeared into the hollow of her collarbone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She tugged at her shirt slightly, unintentionally revealing the trail of sweat glistening between her chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wanna get some ice cream?” Zervanie asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn looked at the price, 100 crowns, “So expensive!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I'm paying,” Zervanie whined softly like a little animal and handed Felyn a ten-crown bill, “Wait, I also go with you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zervanie didn’t want to miss what might be her last moment with Felyn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stood up, but after sitting so long, she felt dizzy, and stumbled forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn reflexively reached out and caught her by the waist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His fingers landed on damp warmth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through the slightly damp fabric, his palm could clearly feel the softness of her waist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zervanie had never been touched by anyone other than Felyn. Her body was incredibly sensitive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She felt his fingertips sink slightly into the plush flesh of her waist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instinctively, she let out a soft moan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was… very suggestive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No, extremely suggestive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn’s mouth twitched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was a singer—her voice was naturally beautiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And when that kind of sound came out of her throat, it was absurdly seductive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Incredible. Words failed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Felyn, I didn’t mean to!” Zervanie stammered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She immediately looked up to check Felyn’s expression, terrified he’d think she was a loose woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her cheeks were bright red. Her eyes flickered nervously, afraid Felyn would misunderstand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could I make that sound?! This was so embarrassing!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Y-yeah, yeah, I got it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zervanie noticed Felyn had looked away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wait—was he… was he shy?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he likes that kind of sound?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your face looks kinda weird. I hope you’re not thinking of moaning again just to get my attention.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn stared at her increasingly glazed-over eyes and knew she was wandering off in the wrong direction again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I would never!” Zervanie stomped her foot in protest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once they were seated in the ice cream shop, Felyn finally felt relief from the heat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blue walls were decorated with ice cream models—it looked like a fairy tale land.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The air was thick with the scent of milk and fruit. It was almost too sweet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that the shop was mostly full of couples, Zervanie quietly edged closer to Felyn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If people mistook them for a couple—she’d actually be thrilled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their ice cream came quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Zervanie, it’s about time. Let’s head back once we finish this.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mm...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zervanie wondered if there was a way to make the ice cream last forever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So, which client are you seeing this afternoon?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yep. She still cared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zervanie didn’t bite into her ice cream until it was nearly dripping onto the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Confidential.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What are you going to do with her?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Confidential.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you going to... kiss?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No! You were my client too, weren’t you? When did I ever harass you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zervanie hid her face behind the ice cream, her cheeks glowing red as she whispered, “I wouldn’t mind if you did. I wouldn’t blame you…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No thanks. Your fans would kill me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zervanie clenched her fists on her lap, her ears now tinged red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your ice cream’s melting. You're not eating it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn knocked on the table to remind her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zervanie nibbled at her ice cream at a painfully slow pace, sneaking glances at Felyn’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There wasn’t much time left. Was it really going to end like this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a moment of desperation, a bold idea crossed her mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This might be the last chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Felyn… can I give you my autograph?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t need it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zervanie gritted her teeth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fifty autographs. I’ll sign fifty for you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her nose twitched nervously. Her voice carried a final, pleading tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Consider it my apology—for all the things I’ve done to hurt you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn didn’t reply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A single Zervanie autograph could sell for tens of thousands of crowns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mail it to that princess and it might even double.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that rate, one signature could pay for a maid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just one name could hire a maid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was one step closer to his dream of owning a maid estate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And after she compensated him—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She probably wouldn’t pester him again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he’d finally be free.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fifty is a bit much.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, writing that many would be exhausting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn wasn’t the kind of person who’d prioritize money over Zervanie’s health.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Forty-nine is fine. Don’t overdo it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One maid less wouldn’t matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Forty-nine was plenty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1446,"2026-06-09T04:36:14.213Z",1,"novelbin.me","724b0e81c0d0c8d923591c00715b6f169f1bcb8336563930ecdffa04796cd777","shut-up-young-lady-obediently-hand-over-the-mone-chapter-117","shut-up-young-lady-obediently-hand-over-the-mone-chapter-115",727,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fshut-up-young-lady-obediently-hand-over-the-mone-cover.jpg"]
