How did this happen?
I lowered my head as much as possible and followed behind Shinsiya.
I wanted to run away, but doing something suspicious could lead to discovery.
“Why did you call me? Leave the other maids alone.”
Shinsiya claimed to know the faces and names of all the maids.
Perhaps he noticed something.
Swallowing dry saliva, I entered Shinsiya’s residence.
I briefly diverted my gaze from the neatly organized bookshelves, more orderly than the Hwanggung Library.
Philosophy, mathematics, economics, history, geography, and various specialized books filled the shelves.
Shinsiya asked in a somewhat suspicious manner, “Do you know how to read?”
“I’ve learned a little.”
Shinsiya’s eyes became even sharper.
Should I have pretended not to know anything?
“Well done. Because no one knows how things will turn out in life.”
Although cool, it was a word containing encouragement.
Was Shinsiya this type of character?
I recollected information I obtained from money and Nisa.
“The Blackfold Viscount is the lowest among the four prestigious families. He’s highly qualified, but he has strong qualifications and intense jealousy. He appears polite but is the most dangerous person. Rumor has it that he favors the second daughter.”
Shinsiya, who had entered the bedroom in the meantime, returned.
She presented a bundle of clothes that were made of the finest silk.
It was a dress.
It was torn to the extent that it was difficult to find an intact part.
As if a beast engulfed in anger had torn it apart.
“Take it and burn it.”
Shinsiya commanded indifferently.
So, this was the reason for finding a new unfamiliar maid.
I speculated on a few facts.
“First, Shinsiya is known as a calm and intelligent person, but she is also emotional enough to tear her clothes. Second, someone is monitoring Shinsiya through the maids. Shinsiya knows about it, so she took advantage of the commotion in the harem. Third, she wanted to deal with the torn clothes as quickly as possible. The presence of the clothes here means that it is a recent problem.”
What happened to Shinsiya?
While staring at her wrinkled skin and lifeless pupils, I scratched my head.
“I understand, Mama.”
It was my plan to do a simple errand and quietly disappear.
However, Shinsiya didn’t let me off.
“Why aren’t you asking anything?”
“…What do you mean?”
“Other maids always asked if they could cut a piece of silk or if they could write. This is not the first time I’ve torn a dress.”
“In this world, fabric is very precious. It’s difficult for commoners to even have one silk ribbon. To me, it’s nothing more than garbage, but it must have seemed like a treasure to other maids.”
Chewing on the sense of loss, I stammered inarticulately.
“I, I only follow Mama’s orders….”
“Really?”
“Sincerely, Mama.”
I bowed deeply.
Because of that, my wig tilted slightly.
If it came off, it was only a matter of time before my identity was revealed.
“Following the orders of the superior is a good attitude. What is your name? I’ve never seen your face before.”
“…My name is Samantha.”
“These days, the maids change frequently…”
Shinsiya murmured self-pityingly.
Her gaze, looking out the window, was filled with emptiness.
“Take the silver as an errand fee. Go straight to the incinerator.”
“Thank you, Hwangbi Mama!”
Taking the silver, I bowed repeatedly.
A golden necklace sparkled around Shinsiya’s neck as she smiled faintly.
‘A rocket necklace…!’
I held my breath and observed Shinsiya’s necklace.
Although different in design from Cares’s, it was quite similar.
Shinsiya immediately noticed my strange gaze.
“Why are you looking at it like that?”
“Oh, I’m sorry. I’ve never seen anything as pretty as Mama’s necklace…”
I stammered like a naive country girl who knew nothing about the world.
Despite praising the jewelry, Shinsiya’s expression twisted slightly.
“You talk quite a bit when responding to compliments! Get lost, right now!”
Shinsiya’s harsh tone pierced my eardrums.
The slightly bluish pallor on her face seemed unusual.
As if someone had revealed a hidden weakness.
‘Shinsiya said she dislikes accessories. Judging by her reaction, it doesn’t seem to be just any necklace. Could it be related to Cares?’
Retreating from Shinsiya’s residence, I could feel her stern gaze from the window.
Before throwing the torn dress into the incinerator, I smelled the scent emanating from the fabric.
It was faint but unmistakably the scent of blood.
Nisa spent time at the laundry house where she was supposed to meet Elizabeth.
Perhaps due to the Sun Festival, there was no one around.
‘When I was Rose’s maid, I did the laundry myself. Rose made a fuss, saying she couldn’t wear clothes touched by commoners…’
If it weren’t for Elizabeth, I would still have to endure Rose’s antics.
I probably wouldn’t have been able to repay the increasing debts of the family.
Sometimes, I envied Elizabeth, who was uniquely beautiful, wealthy, and seemed to monopolize the Emperor’s love.

One-line summary: Forced to live stream romance with a top celebrity in a female-dominant world.
Yan Jin transmigrated into a brothel, with a fellow transmigrated junior beside her.
Hearing the obscene words coming from outside, the unfortunate junior covered his ears tightly, his cheeks flushed red, and whispered to comfort her, “Don’t worry, I will definitely help you escape.”
“Don’t worry, I will definitely defend your chastity.” Yan Jin looked at the flawless and delicate features of the unfortunate junior and gently comforted, “Because we have transmigrated into a female-dominant world.”

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.
Research scientist Yan Jin fainted in the lab after working overtime.
Two people with no connection were rushed to the same hospital.
Three days later, neither of them had woken up.
Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.
Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.
The entire internet was in an uproar.
After the two successfully escaped from the brothel, Yu Shu’s fan group rushed to make a banner and sent it to the hospital overnight.
“Big sister bravely took action to defend the chastity of our idol!”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
