Lionheart Society: I am an S-class freshman, with infinite power of words.

"I get it now?"

“I think I understand a little,” said Mai Shude. “My role isn’t that of an employee, but more like your girlfriend. No, that’s not quite accurate either. If I had to say, maybe ‘concubine’ would be a more accurate description!”

Lin Chen: "...Is this how you understand Chinese culture?"

Mai nodded firmly: "That's right, that's exactly what I mean. A person can have one girlfriend, but if he takes concubines, he can have many!"

Lin Chen sighed, "You're a little too self-aware, but I don't like that word. You're not a concubine, you're a girl, the most beautiful creature in the world! There aren't that many dangers that require you to charge into battle; you just need to be beautiful."

Mai Shude paused for a moment: "But one day I will grow old."

Have you ever heard a song called "The Most Romantic Thing"?

"No, I can listen now."

Mai Shude searched on the car's infotainment system for a while and then played this song.

The chorus of the lyrics is the most moving part.

"The most romantic thing I can think of."

"It's about growing old with you!"

"I won't be able to go anywhere when I get old!"

"You still treat me like a treasure in your palm!"

"..."

Mai Shude's heart skipped a beat; she understood the meaning of the lyrics.

“I understand,” Mai Shude said softly.

Lin Chen crossed his arms: "What do you know? You won't age if you stay by my side! How could I watch the girl next to me grow old and unable to go anywhere? That would be too tragic. I remember there's something in the alchemy field that can make people stay young forever!"

Mai Shude instinctively widened her eyes.

Any female would be deeply attracted by Lin Chen's words!

Mai Shude took a deep breath and gripped the steering wheel firmly again: "Yes, boss!"

"That's right. Just do your job and don't ask any more questions."

"I understand. I will stay by your side and be your girl!"

Lin Chen nodded, rested his head on the center console armrest, and clasped hands with Shude Mai.

Mai Shude instinctively trembled, as if something inside her was stirring.

The car drove along the highway all the way to the city center and merged into the city's main thoroughfare.

It was rush hour, and the Panamera was driving around the city center, stopping and starting frequently.

"Let's find a place to park and play for a while," Lin Chen said. "Traffic jams are so frustrating!"

“Okay, I’ll contact Su Enxi right away!” Jiu De Mai dialed the number, and Su Enxi’s voice came through the phone very quickly.

"Potato Chips! Get my current location and navigate to the nearest parking lot. It would be best if you could also plan your next activities."

Su Enxi's voice was cheerful: "I understand! I really envy you guys, being able to drive around and have fun. EVA and I have been so busy with business these past few days, we're almost exhausted!"

Sake-De-Mai said helplessly, "Hurry up, the boss is still waiting!"

"All done! Navigation sent, Zhongcheng Hotel's underground parking lot, and event planning complete! The hotel's themed suite booked!"

Mai Shude was taken aback: "Hotel... suite? Or a themed one?"

155: Japanese girl! Kimono and geta! Mai with sake!

As they ascended the elevator, a waiter led Lin Chen and Jiu De Mai to the suite's entrance.

The waiter's eyes were restless the whole way, his peripheral vision constantly glancing at Mai Shude.

It's no wonder the waiter was dishonest; Mai Shude's figure was incredibly hot.

With a supermodel-like figure, Mai Shude wore fitted black suit pants and a simple white shirt, paired with five-centimeter high heels, showcasing an amazing figure that resembled something out of an anime.

At the same time, Mai Shude's face is also top-notch; even with large sunglasses, the lines beneath the sunglasses are still quite beautiful.

The waiter's gaze was forced back by Lin Chen's aura, and at the same time, the waiter began to admire Lin Chen.

Seeing Lin Chen dressed plainly, yet able to bring a supermodel-like beautiful girl into the suite.

The waiter led the two to the door and then left, turning back to the elevator every two steps.

When Mai Shude opened the door, it was a large room. Although it wasn't as luxurious as a presidential suite, it looked quite exquisite and was enough for Lin Chen and Mai Shude to stay comfortably.

The room's overall style is Japanese, which suits Mai Shude quite well.

The floor was covered with pebbles, and wooden clogs were placed at the head of the bed. What should have been the living room area was decorated with plastic cherry blossoms, which were so well made that they looked exactly like real flowers.

The bed was not an ordinary one, but a luxurious tatami mat with a soft mattress and sheets, and flower petals scattered on the quilt.

The room was thoughtfully equipped with a clothes rack, on which were several sets of kimonos available for guests to take photos.

Su Enxi is right, it is indeed a very themed room.

Mai Shude pushed open the bathroom door. Inside, the bathroom was divided into wet and dry areas, and in addition to the shower area, there was also a luxurious jacuzzi.

Lin Chen tossed his backpack onto the table and walked to the window.

From the window, you can see most of the city, with its brightly lit buildings and bustling traffic.

Lin Chen turned around: "This place is not bad. Su Enxi has a good eye for choosing."

Mai Shude looked slightly helpless: "I'll thank her properly when I have the chance."

Lin Chen sat down on the tatami mat, which was quite soft.

Jiude Mai stood in front of Lin Chen: "Boss, is there anything else you need?"

Yes, check the room.

Mai Shude was taken aback and instantly became alert: "You mean we're being listened to?"

"To be precise, it should be surveillance!"

Mai looked around instinctively, and for a moment she even held her breath.

Lin Chen smiled and waved his hand: "Don't be so nervous, they're just some miniature cameras. They're not interested in our conversation, they just want to take pictures."

Mai looked confused: "What do you mean? We're being watched?"

"It's not that we're being targeted, it's that everyone who checks into this room is being targeted."

"What's wrong with this room?"

"A themed room? Would you choose this kind of room if you were traveling alone?"

"No, I will try to choose a business suite that is not conspicuous."

"That's right. Couples usually stay in these suites. Although the style of this room is obvious, there is an ambiguous atmosphere everywhere, which will make people with bad intentions curious about what is happening in the room!"

Mai Shude was still somewhat taken aback; as an assassin, her thinking was limited by fighting and killing.

What can happen between just couples?

Lin Chen winked at Shude Mai, who finally snapped out of her daze: "You mean... I understand."

Mai Shude got up and began inspecting the room.

She was quite tall and slender, and with agile movements, she looked around the room before finally returning to Lin Chen and shaking her head.

"This must be a newly opened hotel; no surveillance equipment was found!"

"That's good." Lin Chen nodded.

Mai suddenly looked at the kimono on the clothes rack next to her.

"Boss, do you need me to change into these?"

"Do you like wearing this?"

“You said before that I should be observant, and that most of the time, my identity is your girl, not an assassin. As an observant girl by your side, I should wear a kimono in this kind of situation!” Mai Shude said. “Besides, you asked me to check the room to prevent hidden cameras, and even used the example of couples, so what I’m going to do next is definitely something that couples would do!”

Lin Chen sighed, "Do you even know what couples do?"

Mai Shude blurted out, "Love."

Lin Chen almost coughed up: "You know a lot about these things?"

“No,” Mai said. “I haven’t experienced it myself, but as your girl, it’s what I should do. Chip Girl told me that.”

"She really did teach you some good things!" Lin Chen continued, rubbing his forehead.

Mai Shude went to the bathroom, changed into wooden clogs and a kimono, and then came out and knelt down beside Lin Chen.

These kimonos are all brand new, but the styles don't quite suit the Shutoku Mai.

Most kimonos sold to general customers are one-size-fits-all.

But Mai Shude is different; she has a devilish figure, with a tall and slender physique that is completely different from that of ordinary girls.

These kimonos are fine to wear, but they're a bit too short, and the fair legs are showing.

Lin Chen reached out and gently stroked Mai's head: "So good, this is my girl!"
