Birds of same feather flock together

They talked for sometime before Qianru showed her round the house. After the one hour tour, they proceeded upstairs. The first room she showed Liling was her room. As they opened the room, the sight that met her took her unawares.

Liling was totally stunned. They walked inside and looked around the room.

Her bag was already kept by the side, but that was not what shocked her. It was the expensive taste of the room.

Her bed was king size, her wardrobe was filled with dresses, shoe rack stacked with different shoes and sandals. The dressing table had expensive creams and oils on it.

It took a long time for her to realize that that was a maid's room.

"Miss, is this actually where I would be staying?"

Liling asked again, looking puzzled.

The room was too furnished and exorbitant for her liking.

"Yes Liling, is there anything wrong? You don't like it?"

"No!, not at all, it's just that..., it's a bit too much"

Qianru smiled at her, she understood the point she was making.

"Liling, anything you don't want here, you could just pack it up. It's just a welcoming gift."

"Oh! "

'Just a welcoming gift, Mr Liu Wei really has so much money to throw away!'

When they came out, Qianru showed her Liu Wei's room which was opposite hers, but a little bit father away; but they didn't go in. She told her to freshen up and come downstairs for a dinner.

Liling returned to her room and closed the door behind her.

She stood by the door and looked at the bed which was screaming 'Lie on me baby! '

Liling walked to it and gently poked it with her fingers, she poked it again then she tapped it with both hands, before long she found her self bouncing on the bed.

'You are crazy, Liling! '

Liling laughed at her stupidity. She immediately stood up and walked to the wardrobe.

The clothes stacked in there were not even for her class, she couldn't even put them on even for a second.

So she carefully pushed them to one side of the wardrobe and arranged her own clothes on the other side.

When she was done, she went to the dressing table and put all of the items into the drawer without even taking a second look at them, then she replaced them with her cheap cream and oils.

She entered the bathroom and marvelled at the beautiful design of it.

'It seems this arrangement wasn't bad after all! '

A smile appeared on her lips as she filled the bath tub with water, then undressed and stepped in while humming a favorite song.

.....

It was during dinner that Liling met the other housemates. Qianru introduced them individually.

A male cook who constantly smiled at her throughout the meal, then three other girls, obviously her age bracket.

One of them was unusually cold, Liling couldn't figure out what caused coldness. She hadn't done anything yet, besides she just came in that day, so why had she already disliked her?

They didn't share the same dining table with Liu Wei. Liu Wei had his spacial dining table. After the meal, since she was his new personal maid, she had to wait for him to return before she could retire to her room.

The others left to complete their duties before retiring for the night, while she went outside to the large balcony which faced the inner gates. She sat down and decided to open her social media, it had been a long time since she last logged in.

The first picture she saw on Weibo was one of Richen and Chang Ming together. She had wanted to just scroll past, but then Richen had tagged her to the post, coupled with Chang Ming's part in her misery. No, she wasn't going to let this one go.

She shook her head and opened the comments section.

"Awnn, pretty couple!!. Now I can finally believe the saying, 'Birds of same feather flock together! '. You two fit perfectly." Then she added a smile emoji.

Liling laughed at her naughtiness. Seems she ate a little too much that night. She immediately clicked 'send', and left the couple's post.

"Nice comment! "
