Chapter 565: The two best friends haven't seen each other for a long time
Looking at the backs of the three of them heading towards the front yard, Paimon scratched his head subconsciously:
"Huh? Why did you bring Rosalyn along?"
After this complaint, Paimon, Funina, and Shen He suddenly slapped their foreheads!
Paimon even closed his eyes, with a look of regret:
"Oops! I forgot about that!
Rosaline is the eighth lady of the Fatui Executive!
No wonder they brought her to the front yard as well!"
These words made Clorinde and Navia feel uneasy!
Yun Jin, who didn't know about this, also turned around in surprise!
Navia exclaimed in a low voice:
"What!?
This maid named Rosaline is the eighth Fatui executive officer, that lady!?"
Paimon covered his forehead and nodded tiredly:
"Yes, that's it.
Ugh……
Rosalin has been a maid in my house for so long, and after spending so much time with her, I've almost forgotten her original identity!"
Clorinde couldn't help but interrupt:
"and many more!
The Eighth Chief of Fatui is working as a maid here?"
The corner of Funina's mouth twitched:
"In fact, in a sense, she is marrying above her station.
Not everyone can be a maid in Gu Chen's house, and not everyone can be with Gu Chen day and night and serve him."
Clorinde was speechless:
“Okay, that’s right.
So how did this... lady end up working as a maid here? Did she apply for the position on her own initiative?
After all, I’m the Fatui’s executive officer, so I feel…”
Paimon waved his hand slightly:
"No, no, she didn't come here to apply for the job.
If I must say, she was given to us as a maid by the Fatui as compensation. When she came here, it was Piero, the Fatui commander, who personally brought her here and apologized in person.
Finina nodded with a smile:
"Yes, that's it.
Didn’t I say before that I had met the leader of the Fatui?
That’s when I saw him.”
Navia was dumbfounded:
“Compensate you by being a maid?
The leader of the Fatui came to apologize in person?
No, how did the fools offend you? "
Paimon raised his little finger and corrected slightly:
“It’s not about offending us, it’s about offending Gu Chen and Li Yue.
In short, the situation is very complicated, and the reasons are also very complicated. Rosaline came to us as a maid, and it was indeed the Fatui who sent her here to atone for her sins."
Having said that, Paimon looked towards the front yard:
“But then again.
Gu Chen and the servants went to the front yard to discuss things, and took Rosaline with them.
Could it be that the servant's request is related to the Fatui and Rosaline?"
After thinking about it, Clorinde nodded in agreement:
"Well, it's very possible."
Let’s not talk about the people in the backyard for now, let’s talk about the front yard first.
After bringing the servants and Rosalind to the front garden, Gu Chen sat casually at the original stone table.
After confirming that the surroundings were quiet and private, Gu Chen looked at the servant:
"Your purpose is to meet Rosalyn, right?
I heard her say that among the Fatui executives, you are one of his good friends.
I know Rosalin is my maid and I haven't seen her for a long time. I am worried about her situation, so it makes sense for me to come and visit her through Funina to show my concern.
Okay, I won't bother you two anymore.
My garden is so big, you can choose a quiet place to talk, don't worry about me."
Looking at Gu Chen, the servant bowed slightly with a sincere heart:
"Thank you for your kindness."
Then she looked at Rosalyn.
Rosalin said nothing else, and went with the servant to a small corner of the garden, where she talked to the servant under the half-hidden shadows of trees and flowers.
After confirming that the environment here was okay, the servant looked at Rosaline in front of him wearing a maid outfit with a complicated attitude.
She didn't know whether she sighed or breathed a sigh of relief:
"Rosaline, long time no see."
Rosalyn nodded, and she finally spoke:
"Yeah, long time no see, Alei.
I never thought that when we met again, it would be such a scene and such a situation."
The servant pursed his lips:
“Alas… the circumstances of life are indeed unpredictable.
When Her Majesty the Queen wanted to give you to him as a maid, I refused in my heart. I wonder when have we, the Fatui, ever been so humble?
However, considering Zhidong's current situation and future, considering the unimaginable combat power displayed by Lord Gouchenxing at that time, and considering that Her Majesty was beaten by Liyue's Rock King Emperor not long ago, we executive officers are all defeated...
In such a big environment, even if I refuted a few words, it would be difficult to resist the overall situation. "
Rosalyn looked a little regretful when she mentioned the past:
"I know, I don't blame you.
When I first heard Her Majesty the Queen's order, I also refused, thinking it was an insult to myself.
But later on, didn’t I have no choice but to give in?
and……
The days of being a maid for Master Gu Chen were not bad, the people here were quite easy to serve."
Hearing Rosaline subconsciously call Gu Chen "Sir", the servant felt even more complicated.
But in the end she said nothing else, just sighed slightly:
"Well, as long as you live a good life, that's fine.
I'm also worried that you might be unfairly oppressed here.
Now it seems that this Master Gu Chen is indeed a good person..."
Following this, the servant and Rosalyn chatted about something else.
The two friends hadn't seen each other for such a long time, so they naturally chatted a lot.
Rosaline, without revealing Gu Chen's privacy, talked a lot about her knowledge and her daily life, and the servants were surprised from time to time.
The servant also talked a lot about the situation within the Fatui, which included many of the Fatui's secrets and even their general direction in the future.
In fact, this was also the servants' way of showing Rosaline that they, the Fatui, still regarded Rosaline as one of their own, and Rosaline's position as the eighth executive officer had not changed from the beginning to the end.
Rosalyn sensed this, and she felt quite at ease.
At the same time, she also knew that Arei's willingness to tell her these secrets must have been carefully considered, and must have been approved by Piero and even Her Majesty the Queen.
If you think about it more deeply, maybe this is exactly what the Fatui want to use to convey their future direction of action to Gu Chen.
Realizing this, Rosalyn smiled, not knowing whether it was self-deprecating or helpless.
It turned out that he had unknowingly become the bridge of communication between the Fatui and Lord Gu Chen.
I don’t know whether Lord Gu Chen needs this path of mine, but the Fatui definitely needs me.
For the Fatui and Winter, this maid was probably the right gift.
In this way, Rosalyn and the servant chatted a lot in a short while.
As they chatted, Rosalin took the initiative to bring the topic back on track. She looked at the servant seriously:
"Alei, you went through so much trouble to come here by asking Funina to help you. You must have more than just the one purpose of wanting to see me, right?
Do you have any other thoughts or requests for Master Gu Chen?"
