and so it begins

So let me get this straight, it takes Ji Lin two flight of stairs to climb from the main floor of the mansion to the master bedroom. The trip is a workout itself but what made it worst is having to carry baskets of dirty laundry numerous times downstairs. 

Her master (Li Jun, ML) is a neat freak. He takes showers numerous times a day. So that means - a lot of laundry. And no, it's not because he's having too much sex. Li Jun hardly brings any women home. It somehow has to do with his line of work. Ji Lin doesn't know what he does for a living although she has a strong feeling what it is. 

Li Jun often comes home with bloodied shirts, torn jackets and stained shoes. So much so that his clothes picked up a permanent scent of iron in them. This is her second trip going back and forth from the main floor to the master bedroom and she has to do it all over again later when the clothes are dried and clean.

What a hassle, she grows exhausted just thinking about it. 

Behind her is our handsome second male lead, Shin trailed her footsteps silently (what a stalker.) This is one of those opportunity when he could come near her without his father breathing down his neck. He could already hear his voice inside his head. Stay away from the girl!

Ji Lin grunted, perspiring as she dragged the final load through the long flight of stairs. Shin soon took over taking the basket from her grip.

The sudden contact took Ji Lin by surprise. She turned to look to see who it was when she saw Shin's tall stature beside her. The gesture caused her face to flower, she's glad he's willing to help but she's also afraid she'll get in trouble for letting him. 

The main housekeeper is a nasty bitch. 

"Master, Shin! Please, you don't have to do that." She says as she tries to take the basket back from him.

"But I want to." Said Shin swatting her hands from taking it back.

"You don't understand. I'll get in trouble."

"And, I'll let them know I wanted to help. You have nothing to worry about."

But Ji Lin is still not convinced. "It's easy for you to say. You're not the one getting scolded. You know what they'll do once you turn around? They'll scold me."

She wasn't lying. Ji Lin often gets scolding for interacting with the young master. They give her names and call her a flirt. 

She'd brush them off. A flirt maybe, but she's never the one who sparks it first.
