Ajelina seemed quite excited, and even though Miss Carina couldn't see her face, she could read her mood from her movements.
Tifa immediately followed into the room and closed the door. Seeing that the two people on the sofa did not move, she coughed on behalf of her master.
When Shad heard the voice, he tried to sit up, but Ajelina held him and he couldn't move.
Then the witch shook her head and said:
"Next time, Ajelina, at least remember to lock the door. If it wasn't me who pushed the door open just now, tomorrow's gossip would have dominated the front page headlines."
After hearing Miss Carina's voice, Ajelina finally let go of Shad. She supported herself on the sofa with her hands and tried to sit up, but as her red hair fell down to cover Shad's face, the eyes on her blushing face kept looking at him.
After sitting up straight, she gathered her long hair, bit her lip and turned to look at her great aunt with a flushed face, but Miss Carina knew that her blushing was definitely not because of shyness.
"I... ... "
Finally able to stand up, Shade wanted to say something, but the witch, who was familiar with Shade and Ajelina, waved her hand:
"No need to explain, let me guess - as soon as you entered the room just now, Ajelina hugged you and pressed you on the sofa."
Although the details are a little off, it is generally correct.
"Xia De, you see, the girls of the Cavendish family always know what they want and are willing to take action to get what they want. From this point of view, although Yin Luna also has a clear goal, she is constrained by traditional morals and her ability to act is a little weaker... You have been assassinated twice today."
The Duchess laughed and joked again. Shade wiped his lips and looked at the little princess's profile. Although he knew that what happened just now was wrong, since it had already happened, he would not deny it.
"I will explain to Lecia. But did the assassins agree to act together today? If I had known this, I might as well have stayed at Green Lake for a day."
"I invited you here to apologize for getting you into trouble this afternoon, but I didn't expect you to... ... It seems I can only find another opportunity to apologize next time."
Seeing Xia De stand up, Miss Carina reminded him again:
"You go out first and let Ajelina calm down. She is a little too emotional tonight. That kind of agitated mental power... Oh, Anlos is here. You can talk to him."
"The director is here too? That's right. After all, it's a member of the royal family who is threatened. Well, I'll go now."
Before leaving, she did not forget to say goodbye to Ajelina, and the little princess responded softly. After the door was closed, Miss Carina asked the young princess:
"Ajelina, how does it feel to be a knight?"
There was a smile and difficult-to-detect emotions in those golden eyes.
"very nice... ... "
Ajelina lowered her head and said, then explained softly:
"At the City Horse Riding Competition, my mother said that I could have more contact with Shade before getting married."
"Tsk tsk, the 'tradition' of the royal family. Before marriage... your father has sent a team to pick you up, so get ready to leave. Oh, don't forget to think about how to explain to Resia in advance. I don't mean that you kissed him, but that he was implicated in the assassination by you. Resia will not think that this matter can be let go just because Shade is fine. If it were normal times, she probably wouldn't say anything, but she recently gave Shade some tasks that he shouldn't have accepted, and now she feels very guilty about Shade."
She said with a smile, and then signaled Tifa to reopen the door. Ajelina nodded slightly, looking up at the tall back of her beautiful great-aunt.
This sweet taste, this surging emotion, and... ... I want all of this.
"Yes, I want it all."
She thought silently in her heart, and then looked around in confusion, not understanding who had just spoken her true feelings. She wanted to try again, but the voice had disappeared.
(Little Mia is running...)
Early on Friday morning, Luvia, who had heard the "rumors" from her colleagues at the Prophet's Association last night, showed up at number six, St. Teresa's Square, before eight o'clock.
She walked up the stairs thinking that she would run into other girls here, but what she saw was Xia De sitting alone at the dining table reading a newspaper. Mia looked up at her when she heard the footsteps, meowed, and then continued to eat with her head down.
"Why do you look so disappointed?"
Xia De leaned over and poked his head out from behind the newspaper. The girl with purple eyes threw her handbag on the sofa and walked into the restaurant:
"I thought Carina Cavendish would stay here to comfort you last night."
Seeing that Xia De was really the only one there, she joked in a good mood, and when she sat down, she touched Mia's back, which made the cat meow a few more times in displeasure.
"She did stay here on Wednesday night, but she stayed at the Yodel Palace last night. She's been very busy lately... Have you had breakfast? There are still some eggs in the pot. If that's not enough, I can heat up a few more slices of bread."
"have eaten."
Luvia said, looking Shade up and down:
"What happened last night? I woke up and heard from the association that the Duchess openly brought you to the banquet, but you were attacked when you were alone with Princess Ajelina."
She laughed.
"If it weren't for the huge news of the princess being assassinated at such a sensitive time, your gossip would probably be the hot topic today."
"In fact, I encountered something yesterday afternoon... As expected, I am not as important as the Cavendishes."
He put down the newspaper in his hand, because the incident happened last night, so the newspapers did not have time to publish the news this morning. However, various rumors have been spread widely, and Shade believes that the king will find a way to suppress it.
"Don't make fun of me, Luvia. The two assassins last night claimed to be the Gray Gloves, but I'm sure they are not."
"MI6 has come up with the results of its investigation? So quickly this time?"
"Of course not. It was Margaret who mentioned it in her letter to me."
He pointed to the opened letter on the dining table:
"Inside it was a document officially identifying me as a 'gray glove' agent for operations in the Green Lake area.
In addition, she told me that the elders of the Forlan brothers had all passed away, so the Forlan brothers only had two Edwards left. Margaret finally mentioned that the Gray Gloves found out that someone wanted to use their names to create some sensational events in Tobesk during the Green Lake negotiations, so as to provoke relations between the two countries. "
"Who is it?"
"Gray Gloves is also being investigated, and there are currently eight suspects."
"Doesn't that mean everyone is a suspect?"
Luvia shook her head and said, but she was not very interested in this matter. The kingdom and the regime were not worth mentioning in the face of the dangers facing the world. The great prophecy of the Whispering Poems and Shade were what she really cared about:
"You should also be careful when you are operating in Green Lake. I think there are some signs of the prelude to a storm recently. Who would have thought that we saved the Pantanal Swamp, but instead caused such a situation."
"If the evil creatures in the Pantanal devour the swamp, I don't think the situation between the two countries will get better. In my opinion, the conflicts and disputes between Delarion and Carsenrick, as well as their respective attempts to transfer domestic conflicts to foreign countries, have actually been revealed long ago. The Pantanal is just a fuse. Without it, disputes will arise somewhere else."
He said casually, picking up the cat food that had fallen on the table and throwing it to the cat that had just finished its meal. Who would have thought that the cat actually sniffed it with disdain and didn't eat it, but instead stared at the bacon on Shad's plate.
"I can't give you this."
Shade warned, picking up his knife and fork to finish his breakfast.
But speaking of it, he was also curious about what caused the dispute between Delarion and Carsenric in the past Sixth Era. He was even more curious about what role Luvia, who restarted everything, played in the kingdom and politics, and what steps the ambitious Resia and Margaret had taken.
"I'm relieved to see that you're okay. Although those ordinary people can't threaten you, I'm still worried when I heard about this."
She was about to get up and leave, after all, the Prophet Association was about to start working. Shade didn't dare tell Luvia that he had been shot in the chest last night. When he sent her downstairs, he said before Luvia opened the door:
"Last night... Ajelina and I kissed."
The purple-eyed girl asked doubtfully:
"Really? Tell me what to do? Shouldn't you tell Leisia Cavendish and let her judge the matter between you and her sister? Besides, didn't you say a long time ago that the little princess had a special feeling for you?"
"I always feel that I should tell you about this, just like I told you about what happened between me and the witches."
Xia De stammered, Luvia shook her head and reached out to help Xia De straighten the collar of his shirt:
"I won't interfere with you. Go do what you want to do, and then lead me to witness the great poem of whispers until the very end. Shade, I believe in you."
At this moment, Luvia with long hair and short hair seemed to merge into one. She stood on tiptoe, kissed the side of Shade's face, then waved to Shade and walked into the light outside the door.
Xia De covered the side of his face that was kissed by the purple-eyed girl and sighed deeply. He turned around and prepared to go upstairs, and sure enough, he saw Xiaomia squatting higher up the stairs waiting for him.
It's strange, you feel guilty, but more worried
"I don't understand what happened in the lost history that made Luvia subconsciously believe that the Whispering Poems are the most important."
So this is what you were thinking. Desire was not wrong about you.
"She" gave a gentle comment, and Shade shook his head and walked towards the worried cat.
