“Um, those are the Stockings you wore, Little Fox. I carefully washed each one, and even sorted them by time and type. How about it, did I do a good job?”
To be honest, Lin Sheng hadn’t expected Serveyia to give him such a reply.
He originally thought Serveyia would be nervous and make all kinds of excuses to brush him off.
What he didn’t expect was that Serveyia just said it so openly.
“No, that’s not it. Serveyia, don’t you think this is a really perverted behavior?”
“Perverted? I remember saying before that the Stockings worn by Little Fox are treasures in the eyes of some people. To make sure your Stockings wouldn’t be stolen, I helped you keep them safe. How about it, did I do well?”
Seeing Serveyia looking so proud instead of ashamed, Lin Sheng was really speechless.
Although every word she said seemed reasonable, he couldn’t help but feel her actions looked just like a pervert’s.
If you were really afraid of someone stealing them, wouldn’t it be easier to just destroy them?
Even if you couldn’t bear to do that, isn’t keeping them in your room’s wardrobe also an option?
Lin Sheng just couldn’t believe that, with the security level of Qingli Hall, someone could really sneak in to steal Stockings.
No matter how he looked at it, according to Serveyia’s logic, it just felt like she was stealing from herself.
After listening to Lin Sheng’s righteous explanation, Serveyia showed a half-helpless, half-hurt expression.
“Little Fox, do you really think I’m like you, unable to walk when I see Stockings and wishing to deal with them every day?”
“Then… why did you do this?”
Although Serveyia sounded righteous, her actions weren’t as straightforward as her words.
“Of course, it’s because of the requirements of Saint Laia Academy. Otherwise, why would I go to such lengths to categorize them?”
“Uh, the academy’s requirements… Is this really legitimate?”
“Of course it is. The academy understands that it’s better to manage than to suppress. Since so many people are interested in your Stockings, Little Fox, instead of letting them always covet them, a better method is to set up a reward and punishment system and offer your Stockings as a prize to outstanding young ladies. Isn’t that a better choice?”
“Uh, Serveyia, you can’t be serious, right?”
“Of course I’m serious. Otherwise, why would I handle your Stockings?”
How should he put it—Lin Sheng wished he had misheard.
He really didn’t want to believe that a school meant to cultivate young ladies would have such a strange, or rather perverted, reward system.
But Serveyia’s firm answer dashed his hopes.
“Saint Laia really is… um, unique.”
Lin Sheng racked his brain trying to find a more tactful word, but in the end, all he managed was ‘unique’.
“No matter how unique, it can’t compare to you, Little Fox. Looking at underwear is one thing, I could chalk it up to your mood, but what normal person enjoys being stared at by a maid with a disgusted face? Don’t you agree?”
Although Lin Sheng really wanted to argue that people’s preferences nowadays were varied, he felt this wasn’t the time to say it.
But come on, what’s wrong with a man being a little perverted!
“But…”
Although Lin Sheng knew Serveyia wasn’t wrong, he still found it hard to accept.
How should he put it—just thinking about the Stockings that were once on his body now being used as rewards, even if Serveyia said they were washed clean, Lin Sheng still felt strange.
Was there really nothing wrong with this school?
“Little Fox, to be honest, when you looked at my panties, I didn’t see you hesitating like this. Are you saying that now that you’re the focus, you can’t accept it?”
“……”
“I don’t really want to deny your preferences, Little Fox, or criticize your level of perversion, but since you’ve had perverted thoughts about others, you should be prepared to be the target of perverted thoughts yourself, Little Fox.”
Was the one who admired the scenery now being admired as well?
Lin Sheng had heard similar sayings, but he never thought it would apply to himself so soon.
“So, you really didn’t do anything to my Stockings, right?”
For the sake of his own peace of mind, Lin Sheng felt it was necessary to ask.
“Of course not. The only reason those people want your Stockings is for the Magic Power lingering on them. Honestly, since I interact with you every day, the Magic Power that drifts from your body is far more than what’s left on the Stockings.”
“Why would I bother with your Stockings? I’m not as obsessed with them as you are, Little Fox.”
“Don’t scold me, don’t scold me…”
“If you want me to stop, Little Fox, you’d better not do such ridiculous things. Before you act or speak, consider what consequences might follow…”
As Serveyia spoke, she pushed Lin Sheng into her room and closed the door behind them.
“Just like I said before, I won’t interfere with your perverted thoughts, and as a Nine-tailed Celestial Fox, it’s true that many people will treat you gently and tolerate your requests more, but that doesn’t mean you can do whatever you want. Do you understand?”
