Not at all! You said you wanted extra characters in the story so it only feels right that I add myself to it. If I were to ever change my occupation, I would have told you so. I do not plan on being an actual maid anytime in the near future. It is too much work for someone like me. However, I will play as one for the sake of this story.

Regardless, I am curious to see what you wrote. Please so enlighten me on what else you have written to add to this story. Once you do, I'll give my own interpretation to everything.

Don't keep my waiting now!

Are you really willing to have me walk over there just for the sake of the story? How troublesome and especially as we can finish the rest here. However, you are correct, it would be better to spend it with you as I know you do not want to alone. But very well, I shall make my way over to you.

I shall be there in a moment!


[And with that, Xingqiu would near a knock by the unopened door before she made herself in.]

And it seems you were correct, you truly left the door unlocked. How brave of you.

[This wasn't what she was expecting. As she stared down at the sight before her, she was fully prepared to see a mess everywhere. And yet, that wasn't the case. Everything was cleaned up nicely and with the smell of a cooked meal? She gave a small sigh.]

The pleasure is mine but if you wanted a meal, I could have cooked something for you. It is your birthday and you didn't have to do that.

[Because one should not have to cook a meal on their birthday!!]

[As she walked closer toward the table, she couldn't help but inspect the area. Everything was neat and tidy, nothing was out of place. It seems that he was serious about spending time with his friends as she wasn't expecting a room like this. Giving a small nod to herself, it definitely seems like Xingqiu was more than capable of cleaning up after himself! That was a good thing to note as she might want him to help her clean up one day!

After all, an extra pair of hands was better than just one!

Once she sat down, she cleared her throat.]


Then very well! Despite the gloomy nature of the castle, things seems to slightly brighten up with the appearance of such a cheerful maid. Of course, Chongyun didn't think much about it as he was curious on what she said. Upon knowing that there was a young master of this castle, he immediately felt embarrassed. To think that to walked into a castle without permission was unthinkable! Still, he just had to know who this young master was!

[With that, she tried her best to copy Chongyun's voice.]

"Young master? Mind if I ask where he is?" He said in a low whisper. But the young maid waved her hand to her side. "He's probably out hunting. Whenever he gets hungry, he likes to go out for food." The prince wasn't too sure what to think What was she trying to imply? This mysterious young master was someone who wanted to shoot animals for food? What was the point when he had a maid? But again, he didn't think much about it as he needed a night to stay. "Do you think he would mind....?

[Now that he was finished with everything, she gave a proud nod to him. After she took the time to ensure that everything was set in place during the lantern rite, it was nice to see that he was doing the same for her. Nothing seemed out of place as things seemed to be set based on what they meant. Not only that, she didn’t need to eat the dish to know that he took time on it as well. Just looking at it, she knew that it was going to be a treat once she gave it a taste.

Of course, she just hoped that he didn’t have to ask her to clean up the dishes. She was simply a guest and to ask such a thing from her was considered rude! But then again, she was his friend so he might ask that of her….

But until then? She’ll simply sit back and relax as she hears the rest of his version of the story.]


Well, it’s supposed to make their meeting a little more interesting! It builds up the plot as Chongyun is already trying to get an idea of what Xingqiu is like. It adds to the mystery! And besides, who knows? Perhaps this maid could probably clean up the entire castle by herself.

[She said with a giggle]

As soon as she heard his words, she gestured to the young prince to follow him. With a smirk on her face, she hoped that he did not see through her plans for she had something in store. For now, she’ll keep to herself. Once they made it to the room, she went straight to the bed before laying out the comforters and the blankets. “I’m afraid that this is all we have as we normally don’t have visitors. Although, I’m sure that I can find some more blankets if I look around. But until then…?”

She said before walking out of the room and pointed to the various mops nearby. “Shall we start cleaning?” Again, with a smile, all the young prince could do was stare in awe.

[Then, she cleared her throat in an attempt to mimic Chongyun’s voice.] “V-Very well, I shall try but I never cleaned up such a big castle before!”

[As she listened, she leaned back against her seat as she thought of what else to add to the story. So far, this was far from what she was envisioning as she planned to make this story as romantic and cliched as possible for the sake of both of their amusement. And yet, it seems that Xingqiu was ready to point out every single story trope. With a sigh, this just makes things all the more tricky as it was difficult to immerse herself into such a story.

However, she was not one to give up! Instead, it just means she’ll have to try harder!]


Perhaps not but if something needs to be done, she will put her mind to it! Besides, it would be a shame considering she dared not upset her master. Should he see that there was a spot that was uncleaned? Why, she might fear for her life as she does not know what the young vampire could do!

[Not that she should fear what Xingqiu would ever do. He wouldn’t ever do anything to her but she couldn’t help the slight teasing.]

But anyway…! With every fiber of his being, Chongyun desperately tried to keep up with the maid. Even though he was human, he did not want to feel that he was slacking. As the minutes and hours passed by, he found himself realizing just how much labor this poor servant had to do everyday. When everything seemed to be all done, that’s when he heard something. While he was in a room cleaning a wall, he heard some mumbling behind the wall.

Why, who could it be? He was not sure but he dared to lean in closer to the wall wanting to hear what happened. Suddenly, his heart started to pound louder as he wondered if this was a good idea.

Perhaps, just a little bit. If I have to tell the story, I might as well make you look and sound a little bit frightening. Isn’t the point of the story to have Chongyun melt the heart of such a foul and evil vampire? Especially one who has been away from humanity for so long that he does not know the warm embrace of a human being?

[She said crossing her arms. Giving a dramatic summary of the story, she couldn’t help but give an equally dramatic sigh. After all, the point of the story was to make it as romantic and cliched as possible. Despite Xingqiu trying to break it, she hoped that by telling him he would follow along.

But then again, she never expected him to anyway.]


As the young maid sighs at how he kept telling of his old days of when he was younger, the poor prince couldn’t help but sigh as well. Indeed, there was only so much that two young people could withstand the old man’s ramblings. However, there was something else that pinged his curiosity. Indeed, he could hear that there was a young vampire that was coming their way as soon as they must clean up for his sake. After all, his temper was rather terrible.

[And all said with a smirk on her face.]

And we wouldn’t want to face that now, would we?

[While Hu Tao was aware that Xingqiu was trying to change the story just for the sake of annoying her, she was trying her hardest to not get upset. However, despite trying to maintain a poker face, it was difficult as she was narrowing her eyes and crossing her arms. Here, she was, making a story as romantic and glorious where it would be told for generations! And now, here Xingqiu was ruining the whole thing!

With a sigh, it seems that she was going to have to redirect her story once more.]


It seems that their hard work was for not as the vampire prince had certainly made a mess. With the mud being tracked across the floors, both the human prince and the maid gave a sigh as they left the room. After hearing the vampire prince come into the castle, they started to wonder what would happen next.

“Please hurry, he would want to make the castle as clean as possible now!” The maid said cheerfully as the young human prince gave a sigh. Was he going to be prepared to meet this mysterious Xingqiu in person or will he face his wrath?

[Hmmm….???]
