Although Emily is very cute, most girls and women can't resist her charm, and it seems normal to hold her as a doll and sleep together.
But that was Alvin—
Let’s put it this way: In Xia Yibing’s heart, if one were to rate a person’s “degree of politeness”, then Lilith Gleb would probably get 100 points.
Hitzfeld is probably around 90 points.
...Actually, it should have been 95, but after being with me, I influenced some of his habits, which caused the score to drop.
Irwin also scored 100 points.
But unlike Mrs. Gleb, Xia Yibing always had a feeling that Alwin's full marks were not comparable to the former's.
The lady had been observing etiquette all her life, and her manners were ingrained in her bones. But even so, compared with Alvin's etiquette, she looked like a puppet, and her words and actions were full of deliberateness.
Elwin is the kind of person who you think is actually very easy-going and doesn't care about etiquette, but when you carefully recall her every move and every word she said, you can't find any fault with her.
How could such a man sleep with Emily?
At least subjectively impossible!
Emily must have tricked her into doing this!
"I...well...I want to help after all~"
Facing Mother Xia's stern gaze, Emily began to avoid her eyes.
"It just so happens that Sister Erwin wanted to help, so when we were taking a bath together..."
"You guys took a shower together?"
Xia Yibing’s eyes widened even further.
"I'm not...! We were just taking a shower, nothing else!"
"You also know that taking a bath is more than just a shower?"
Xia Yibing couldn't close her mouth anymore.
"..."
Emily was completely numb.
She felt like she was becoming stupider. Why did she keep making more mistakes?
"Aisun is right... sometimes I am too indulgent towards you..."
Xia Yibing held her chin in her hand and fell into deep thought.
【That’s not the case.】
A reply mixed with anger suddenly came to my mind.
[I’ve been too indulgent towards you…]
If Shadow Night is regarded as an extension or substitute of the dream world, and the Internet is used as a metaphor, then "mystery" belongs only to the "Hitzfeld family's intranet" or "local area network."
So... when Xia Yibing and Emily were whispering in "Mystery", it was natural that she, the owner of the house, could hear it.
Hitzfeld was really angry. She felt that Xia Yibing really had no self-awareness at all.
Why on earth does my daughter know such advanced knowledge?
Isn't it because she always ignores my resistance?
Either in the kitchen or on the balcony...
The most used place besides the bedroom is the bathroom!
Although they were careful not to let their daughter find out, they were inevitably careless after doing it so many times.
Xia Yibing must take full responsibility for this matter!
"Don't be like this, Aisuen..."
【Get back here right now! 】
The connection is broken.
There were two people, one big and one small, squatting by the stinky ditch, staring at each other, and a Sheldon dog was happily sticking out its tongue and wagging its tail beside them.
Half an hour later, Xia Yibing brought Emily and Lily, as well as Alwin and Nian Lun and a group of people who needed her to bring in, into the manor gate.
On the way, she kept looking at Alvin with strange eyes. It was as if her mind was divided into two halves. One half was thinking about serious matters related to the gray fog, and the other half was thinking about her daughter's life event.
It seems that Alvin still hasn't fallen in love with anyone...
I thought it might be Tenize, but it turns out it wasn’t.
Sheena actually had some chances, but she died.
Unexpectedly, it was little Emily who took the lead in the end.
Well……
This actually makes it even...
Xia Yibing was not afraid to speculate about the Sun King with malicious intent. She felt that this was the case - the purpose of Amen Harwin setting up the Secret Keeper Family was to deliver the key to the future so that they could get rid of the huge threat of the "Temple of the Sacrifice".
If you plot against me, I can naturally plot against you as well.
You want Aisuen to sacrifice his life for your descendants. Even if you are doing it for the sake of justice, you are definitely the more excessive one.
In comparison, my daughter only charges a small interest from your descendants... This should be fair, right?
"Your Majesty Imaar."
The annual rings had been holding it in for a while and finally couldn't hold it in anymore.
"You keep looking at His Majesty...what does that mean?"
"Oh, I was thinking about something important."
"? ...Important? How important?"
“Important enough to determine the future of this world.”
Xia Yibing looked back at Nian Lun and nodded to her seriously.
She felt that she was not wrong.
This kind of thing does concern the future of the world and is directly related to the life events of the next generation. Isn’t this enough for the future?
Annual rings: ???
She was a little intimidated and decided to find a chance to ask Alvin later if he had made any new discoveries about the gray fog and the evildoers recently.
"Emily!"
Emily didn't dare to look at her queen sister all the way, and followed Xia Yibing obediently. After entering the door, she changed her shoes and wanted to slip away, but Xia Yibing grabbed her ear and forced her to stay.
"Mother?"
She could only pretend to be innocent and blink vigorously, looking extremely well-behaved and saying, "I'll listen to whatever you say."
"Me and Aisuen...how much do you know?"
Xia Yibing looked at her with a very complicated expression.
According to common sense, Emily is only four years old. It is too precocious for her to be like this. It is inappropriate for her to do this.
However, according to the time that Aisuen and I had experienced, Emily was far from being just four years old...
Don't forget how they both became gods. This child spent a thousand years with Aisuen in Lana's world. This means that her age is much older than everyone else present except them.
"I……"
Emily could only remain silent at this question.
"I understand."
Sometimes silence is also a kind of answer. Xia Yibing touched her head and said with relief to the confused and ignorant gazes of others: "Go to the backyard to play with your queen sister."
"Play?"
Realizing that something was wrong, Xia Yibing looked up. The next second, she was smeared in the face by the spatula.
"Take her upstairs!"
"And Alvin—"
After staring at the queen with some inexplicable look for a long while, which even made Alwin feel a little scared, Hitzfeld slowly uttered words through gritted teeth.
"I have something to talk to you about."
Chapter 42 Decision (Two in One)
"what happens?"
Hearing the noise coming from the living room, a scruffy head popped out from the corridor leading to the kitchen. Most of the hair was messy and clumped on top of the head, with water dripping down along the curve of the cheek.
This is Ashley.
When she was just picked up, Hitzfeld originally wanted her to go upstairs to take a shower, but she was willful and disobedient, claiming that there was a washroom next to the kitchen where she could take a shower. She also said that she had become accustomed to taking cold showers in the training camp, and that "no one is that pampered."
"Go wash yours!"
Hitzfeld was just watching those people go upstairs when he saw Ashley waving a spatula at her threateningly.
"If you have time, wash Lily as well... She doesn't look dirty, but she just came back from outside after all."
"Wang Wang!"
"Leave it to me!" Ashley cheered up when she heard that. She grabbed Lily who was trying to escape, held her under her armpit and went back to the bathroom.
Is it an illusion? I always feel that this child is a little unkind.
Hitzfeld wasn't sure if this was a sequelae of being a serious parent for too long. She always felt that there was a gap between her and Ashley.
Before, Ashley was taken back to the manor by Hitzfeld. On the way, she was angry and ignored us, but Hitzfeld easily saw through her thoughts.
"You must be thinking, since we can go directly there, why don't we do it ourselves in the first place?" Hitzfeld said, "But things are not that simple~ There is still a thin fog floating above Ceres Continent, which can prevent the coverage of the eternal night. We can't fly there before the fleet arrives there."
In fact, the vision was not open, and there was still fog of war in the distance. The B key of the goddess of night could not be used to directly open the fog of war, and the fog of war could only be passed after the vision was opened, so a fleet carrying mechanical dolls was sent to open up the map... She didn't know if Ashley could understand this explanation.
Ashley actually didn't care, she was very happy that Heath's stepmother was willing to explain to her, because this showed that she still cared about her and didn't ignore her just because she had a real daughter.
But Ashley is not a child anymore.
From the year 1984 when she was rescued to the spring of 1987, if we count the day of her rescue as her birthday, then in about two months she would have been 18 years old.
She was a person who could understand some things, so she would feel uncomfortable sometimes - this had nothing to do with Hitzfeld's attitude. It was more like... the better her attitude towards Ashley, the more at a loss Ashley felt.
I am not Heath's real relative...
In the bathroom, the older girl was applying soap to the dog's hair while laughing at herself.
But she still treated me like that, and even though she became so supreme, even more noble than the king, nothing changed at all.
I can certainly enjoy all this with a clear conscience, but is this really fair?
Especially since she already has Emily... As an outsider, I am enjoying the treatment that should have been completely monopolized by Emily. Isn't this too much for Emily?
"This is not like you at all~"
“Hee…Heece!?”
Ashley's scalp exploded and she turned around instantly, and found her "stepmother" leaning against the bathroom door with a smile on her face.
Wearing a thin white sweater, a black long skirt, an apron and a spatula, this image is very intimidating, especially for those who are still children in their mental age.
"Well... time is tight, so I don't want to say anything profound." Hitzfeld sighed at her reserved expression, "But I still want to tell you seriously that I am not taking care of you because I sympathize with you or for some other reasons... such as reasons related to your mother."
“……!!!” Ashley’s whole body was tense and her breathing became noticeably rapid.
"You can say I'm sentimental." Hitzfeld lifted the hair beside his ear, "At first I really just wanted to save people, but after all, we've been together for such a long time..."
"We are already family, right?"
She smiled.
"On the railroad tracks..."
"That case."
"You even saved my life."
