When Luo Yan entered the kitchen, she still smiled at Pei Jing with a bit of reserve, and Luo Bi quickly glanced at Pei Jing. The man had a poker face, showing no reaction at all.
"This is Pei Jing, the Governor of Zhihuang Planet," Luo Feifan introduced to Luo Bi.
"Hello, Governor!" Luo Bi greeted with a smile, thinking that this person's visit must be related to the matter of the assistant to the mentor.
Pei Jing smiled and nodded, not appearing to be a very talkative person.
Luo Yan had said she would make tea just to draw attention. Once in the kitchen, she stood by the door, complaining about everything: "Your kitchen is so dirty, what's that smell?"
Her own family often cooked with nutritious ingredients, so there was a bit of a food smell, but it wasn't any strange odor. As for being dirty, that was impossible; Guan Zhuting had just cleaned it herself, so how could it be unclear? The kitchen was just a bit small, making it feel cramped everywhere.
"You should go outside, be careful not to dirty your clothes," Guan Zhuting said as she found a cup and put in the tea leaves. It was just chrysanthemum tea, not real tea leaves from a tea tree, which were too expensive for her family to afford.
"I'll go out after you finish making the tea, hurry up," Luo Yan said, staying in the kitchen but her mind on the people in the living room. While urging Guan Zhuting, she poked her head out to see what was happening in the hall, and as soon as her head went out: "Oh! You scared me, what are you doing here?"
Luo Bi glanced at her casually: "Bringing tea."
Luo Yan wouldn't let Luo Bi take the lead. At this moment, she didn't care that Luo Bi had scared her, and with one hand holding up her skirt, she carried a cup of tea out with the other.
With the excitement to watch, Luo Bi's mood improved a lot. She took the glass tea tray with a smile, and Guan Zhuting took the tray from her: "You're not needed here, go out."
"Then I'll go out." Luo Bi left the kitchen, eager to watch the show.
Luo Yan first gave a cup of tea to Luo Feifan, then held a cup of tea with both hands and offered it to Governor Pei Jing with a graceful smile: "Governor, please have some tea."
The teacup wasn't very big, and with Luo Yan holding it with both hands, Pei Jing couldn't take it without touching her hands. Luo Bi's eyes sparkled, watching Pei Jing to see what he would do.
"Put it down there." Pei Jing lowered his eyelids, not even saying thank you.
Huh? This reaction was off. Luo Bi thought for a moment and suddenly understood. Pei Jing liked gestators, men who could bear children, and didn't like women. In the space age, not only women could bear children; gestators, men who could bear children, had a higher awakening rate, making childbearing no longer a strong point of women.
Sigh! This world was a pit for Luo Bi, for women, and for normal people!
Sometimes Luo Bi wondered, why did she, a decent person, end up in such a speechless world?
The ability of women to bear children had been overshadowed by gestators, and in the competition for men, women seemed to have little advantage. Life was really tough.
Luo Yan's attempt to curry favor was rejected, and the smile on her face almost disappeared. She put down the teacup and pouted, sitting on the sofa closer to Pei Jing.
"Luo Bi, come over, Grandfather has something to ask you." Luo Feifan called out to Luo Bi, who was standing far away.
Just then, Guan Zhuting came out with the tea tray, and Luo Bi helped her place the teacups on the coffee table. She found a seat a bit farther from the others and sat down, waiting for Luo Feifan to ask his question.
Luo Feifan carefully chose his words before saying, "Grandfather came to ask if you would be willing to be Xiao Yan's assistant. I mentioned it to your father before he left. What do you think?"
