"So..."
"Why does my room have a strange smell?"
"It's not that, it's just..."
"Don't be so vague, sit down."
"I..."
Being forcibly demanded to sit down by Xie Yuning, (cross-legged) and with the door locked behind me, it seems unnecessary to go to such an extent.
I feel restless in my seat, only hearing the rustling sound behind the screen.
Xie Yuning must be changing clothes, and involuntarily, I swallow some saliva.
"Done."
"Ah..." My gaze shifts to the side, I have no interest in what Xie Yuning has changed into.
"What kind of attitude is this?"
"I... it's nothing."
"Look this way."
"Even if you say so..."
"Hurry up!"
"Fine... fine." Reluctantly, I turn my gaze towards Xie Yuning, not because her outfit is ugly, but...
"How is it?"
Pfft...chh, this is not laughter but a nosebleed.
"Very... awesome."
I praise while covering my nose.
"And why do you look like you smell something bad? Do you really think there's a strange smell in this room?"
Xie Yuning is a bit angry.
"It's not that, really..."
"Hmph!"
Xie Yuning puts on a spoiled expression, and during that moment, I pick up a piece of cloth and wipe away the nosebleed.
"You, you, you..." Xie Yuning's shoulders tremble for some reason.
"What's wrong with me?"
"Pervert!"
"Uh..." My face receives a blow, and the nosebleed that was already wiped clean starts flowing again.
"You pervert, you actually sniffed my underwear!"
"I... was just wiping my nosebleed, and what? Underwear?"
I widen my eyes, looking at the piece of cloth that Xie Yuning took away.
"It really is underwear!"
"I didn't expect you to be such a pervert."
"No... it's not... it's not like that, let me explain," I quickly say.
"Explain, let me see what explanation you have."
"Well..." I feel a bit anxious.
"You can't explain, right?"
"Well..." I'm about to lose my temper. "I have a hobby of collecting these things."
"So you really are a pervert."
"Ah... that's not... that's not it, let me explain," I hurriedly say.
"Forget it!" With these three words, Xie Yuning ends my defense. It seems I will be burdened with the accusation of stealing girl's underwear.
"Do all guys have these strange hobbies?" Xie Yuning says angrily while stuffing the underwear into a drawer.
When I just entered this bedroom, I noticed that Xie Yuning had a habit of throwing clothes around. This is probably where she threw it when changing.
"If it wasn't for something important... I would have the butler kick you out."
This statement doesn't seem like a joke, but as for the so-called important matter...
"Evaluate this outfit, how is it? Don't lie, and don't criticize."
Isn't this asking for something that's neither good nor bad? It's too difficult.
"It feels like a great maid outfit." I stroke my chin and give my evaluation.
"Why does it feel like you don't mean it from the bottom of your heart?"
"If you say so... I'm just being objective."
"But this girl feels that you don't really think so."
"Well... if I really have to find a fault, it would be that if you wear a maid outfit, you should act like a maid."
"What kind of behavior?"
"Like addressing the master or something."
"What?! What dirty thoughts are in your head?"
"I'm just pointing out a minor flaw."
"So talkative."
"You said I didn't mean it from the bottom of my heart, so I said it. Now you're not happy about it."
"Anyway, you only want to satisfy your own desires, right?"
"If you say it like that, I can't do anything about it." Even though I only pointed out a flaw from the bottom of my heart, I'm being treated like this.
Xie Yuning remains silent. I'm thinking if this cosplay will end on such an unpleasant note.
"Mas...ter"
"Ah?"
"Don't make me repeat it,"
"Did you just say 'master'?"
"..." Xie Yuning blushed even more. "This miss pursues perfection in everything she does. This little problem won't stump me."
Indeed, I think it's already admirable to be able to overcome the embarrassment and say those three words. Unfortunately, I didn't hear it, so it doesn't count,
"Alright, next set."
Xie Yuning took off this maid outfit, perhaps a bit too quickly.
