Skretil's Ignorance Walker

After hearing someone calling them, Lu Ren and Antrela turned their heads in confusion and looked at the maid, not knowing how she knew them.

"Excuse me, are you...?"

Lu Ren asked, and the other party looked at Lu Ren, appearing very excited.

"Lord Lu Ren, I'm Winnie Sapir, do you remember me? I used to be the head maid in your manor!"

Winnie said excitedly, and seeing that Lu Ren was still a little confused, she turned to Antrella and said.

"It doesn't matter if Master Lu Ren doesn't remember me. Master Antlera, do you still remember me? We have met several times!"

"This……"

When asked, Antrela also began to recall that before the fall of Xidao City, Lu Ren's manor was managed by Wildi. As the head maid of the manor, Winnie had indeed met Antrela several times.

"Ah... yes, yes, you are Winnie. I haven't seen you for a long time. I almost didn't recognize you."

After carefully comparing the woman in front of her with the head maid in her memory, Antrela confirmed that she was indeed Winnie. It was just that she had not seen her for more than a year. In addition, Winnie's current outfit made Antrela not recognize her immediately.

"That's great, I'm glad you still remember me!"

Winnie was relieved to see that Antrella still remembered her. If neither of them remembered her, she didn't know what to do.

"If you are my head maid, then why are you here? Where is my manor?"

Seeing the head maid of her manor appear here in the image of a maid, Lu Ren had a bad feeling in her heart. Although Lu Ren had thought about this problem after the fall of Xidao City, she still held a glimmer of hope.

"Lord Lu Ren, your manor has been destroyed since the fall of Xidao City. We all managed to escape with great difficulty. Now I work as a waiter in a high-end restaurant nearby..."

Winnie began to cry to Lu Ren. After Albi broke through Xidao City, he looted the entire city, and Lu Ren's manor was no exception. After finally escaping from Xidao City, Winnie looked for a job she dreamed of while fleeing.

As the head maid serving the royal family, Winnie was accustomed to that kind of life and work pattern, so she was unwilling to do some jobs that she considered low-level, such as manual work and odd jobs.

Winnie first worked as a maid for some small lords, but the salary was much lower than before, and the work was not easy. She also had to endure the bullying of the maid chief and the coveting of those small nobles. Therefore, Winnie changed many jobs during this period, and finally found a high-end restaurant here and worked as a waitress there. Although it was not as good as at the beginning, Winnie now had no room for complaint.

Now after meeting Lu Ren, Winnie's hope has been rekindled. She wants to continue to be the head maid in Lu Ren's house, after all, she has been doing this job before.

In Winnie's opinion, if Lu Ren settled in Frannia in the future, she would definitely need servants to serve her, and she would be the best choice.

"Is that so... You've been through a lot during this period..."

After hearing Winnie's words, Lu Ren was mentally prepared, but he still felt a little disappointed when he learned that his manor no longer existed. Winnie had a hard time during this period. War did not bring any benefits to all civilians, but only made their burden heavier.

"Um... Lord Lu Ren, can I still go back to Xidao City with you?"

Winnie wished she could go back to Xidao City with Lu Ren and become her head maid. Winnie missed her life as a head maid because she had been ordered around by all kinds of people. At least at that time, the only people who could give orders to her were the housekeeper and the master. She had to give orders to others.

"Hmm? Sure, but don't you have a job here? If you don't have anything else to do, wouldn't it be nice for you to continue living here?"

But Lu Ren didn't know all this. She saw that Winnie had a stable life here, so there was no need for her to go back to Xidao City. However, if she insisted on going back, she wouldn't stop her.

"This... I hope I can continue to serve Master Lu Ren!"

Seeing that Lu Ren didn't understand what she meant, Winnie took the initiative to say that she no longer wanted to suffer those people's anger outside and just wanted to return to her life as the head maid.

"Eh?"

Hearing this, Lu Ren was a little surprised. Winnie was now working as a waitress in a restaurant. Although it was also a service industry, it should be better than being a maid, right? Why did she still want to continue being a maid?

"But my manor is gone, isn't it? There's no point in you following me."

"No, no, no, Lord Lu Ren, a noble person like you must need someone to serve you. I, Winnie, am not talented, but I have served the royal family before, and I have also had the honor of working under you. If you need me, believe me, I am the most suitable person."

Winnie was very anxious. She was also worried that Lu Ren didn't want her. If Lu Ren didn't want her now, then she would have to continue working as a waitress in this crappy place and continue to endure the orders of those idiots.

"This……"

Seeing that Lu Ren still had some doubts, Winnie decided to go all out. She knelt on the ground and hugged Lu Ren, crying and begging Lu Ren to take her in.

"Lord Lu Ren! It is my honor to serve you. Please don't abandon me, take me away! I will do my best to serve you!"

"Don't do this, get up quickly!"

Winnie's movement attracted the siege of the people around her. Lu Ren felt very uncomfortable about this. She quickly helped Winnie up, and then said earnestly:

"It's not that I don't want to, it's because I have no money left. I'm afraid I don't have the spare money to hire a maid..."

Hearing this, Winnie was stunned. One of the important reasons why she wanted to follow Lu Ren was that she wanted to continue receiving her previous salary. But if Lu Ren couldn't pay her salary now, then what was the point of her continuing to follow Lu Ren?

"This……"

"Anyway, think about it carefully. We'll leave here tomorrow. If you're still willing to go to West Island City with us, then meet here at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."

After that, Lu Ren didn't say anything more, and left with Antrela, leaving Winnie still standing there in a daze.

When they returned to the hotel, Antlera looked at Lu Ren and asked casually:

"Are you planning to settle down in Xidao City?"

"I have this plan. Didn't I agree with Lina? Is there any problem?"

Hearing what Antrela said, Lu Ren looked at her in confusion, while the latter seemed to be thinking about something.

"So are you planning on hiring some maids or something?"

"Well, I have no plans for now. Like I said just now, I don't have the financial resources to keep a maid. After all, I have six more at home."

Lu Ren spread his hands. She had no source of income yet, not even a place to live, let alone a maid.

"If the seven of you want to live together, you can only live in the big house. If you don't have a maid, it will be inconvenient in every way, right?"

However, after thinking for a while, Antrela said so. After hearing her words, Lu Ren also began to think.
