Volume 4, Chapter 2 – The Twins Accompanying Lianyue

“The Valen family…”

Muttering these words, Miss Ailiya’s expression gradually darkened.

The Valen family.

Divine Kingdom’s largest god-serving family, and also the family where the current Pope of the Divine Faith resided. As Divine Kingdom’s most powerful family on the surface, the Valen family possessed financial and military power far beyond what ordinary forces could compare to, even House Lingyuan included.

Not only that,

Since the Divine Faith had numerous followers throughout the human world, the Valen family, which dominated the Divine Faith, naturally possessed extraordinary influence. Even great nations like the Westivian Covenant had to take the Valen family seriously, let alone the current House Lingyuan.

After all, after Xi Xuan’s disappearance back then, House Lingyuan’s hard power had also declined considerably.

Therefore, in Naro’s view, it would be fine for the young lady to ignore invitation letters from other families. But the Valen family? It would be best to give them some consideration.

“Miss Ailiya, you should at least take a look.” Naro’s tone couldn’t help but carry a trace of helplessness.

“Sigh, I understand.”

Ailiya sighed with complex emotions. She had no good feelings toward this family.

You have to understand, as Divine Kingdom’s premier family, they were definitely connected to those rats from Paradise Manor who were constantly scheming in the shadows. Ailiya disliked anything related to Paradise Manor.

People from the Valen family had also been constantly urging her recently to go to Divine Kingdom to receive the so-called Lord’s caress and baptism, making Ailiya extremely irritated. And now they were even proposing marriage?

Such annoying people…

However, annoying as it was, for the sake of the bigger picture, Ailiya could only suppress her inner displeasure and say helplessly:

“I understand. I’ll take a good look later and give a response. Grandpa Naro, please put them on my desk first. I have more important things to do right now.”

“More important things?”

After receiving the letters and invitation cards Ailiya handed over, Naro couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows. However, after checking his watch, Naro showed an expression of sudden realization.

“Oh, oh, so it’s already this time. Then I won’t disturb you, Miss Ailiya.”

After Naro bowed elegantly, he very tactfully retreated, while Ailiya continued walking quickly toward the depths of the Lingyuan family residence.

At this time of day, Miss Ailiya had only one thing to do.

That was to carefully tend to a certain troublesome blue-haired girl.

After passing through several barriers and waves of security checks, the silver-haired girl arrived at a secret area within the Lingyuan family’s main residence. Looking at the antique and elegant door ahead, Ailiya took a deep breath and slowly raised her hand.

The door hinges made a subtle “creak” sound.

Ailiya instinctively held her breath, and her footsteps became lighter, as if afraid of disturbing the peaceful scene in the room.

Sweeping her gaze toward the center of the large bed, the girl’s eyes immediately showed a trace of tenderness.

At this moment,

Reflected in Ailiya’s cherry-colored eyes, on the soft bedding, a blue-haired girl was sleeping peacefully.

She wore a plain white nightgown, its hem falling between the bedding, outlining a slender and graceful silhouette. Her face was as tranquil as water, long eyelashes casting faint shadows on her cheeks, pale blue hair spread like clouds and mist across the pillow, reflecting her dreamlike peaceful aura, as if she were an elf who had walked out of a painting.

At her side, two exquisitely crafted silver-haired twin girls snuggled close in sleep. Elder sister Miya held one of the blue-haired girl’s arms, her small body pressed close to her side, sleeping sweetly; while younger sister Weiya simply rested her head on the blue-haired girl’s abdomen, a satisfied smile at the corner of her mouth. Both breathed gently, their silver-white hair intertwining together, interlacing with the blue hair to form gentle colors.

This scene was like a picture depicted in a fairy tale book, tranquil and beautiful. Ailiya stood at the doorway, her lips involuntarily curving upward, her gaze quietly softening.

“These two little ones, came to find Lian again…”

Ailiya smiled indulgently.

Obviously, Ailiya was already accustomed to this warm scene. Ever since Lianyue had fallen into a sleeping state, the two little ones Miya and Weiya had frequently snuck into the room to sleep beside Lianyue. Although initially they wanted to wake Lianyue up through acting cute and charming…

But after realizing this had no effect, the twins still persisted in coming over. Clearly, they also didn’t want Mama to stay alone in this room.

Of course, keeping Lianyue company was fine.

But skipping class in the process wasn’t quite acceptable~

“Miya, Weiya, time to wake up~ It’s almost class time~” Ailiya called out softly.

Lianyue’s room was in a rather special location. If Miya and Weiya slept here, teachers and ordinary people really couldn’t find them easily.

As Ailiya’s words reached their ears, the two little ones who were sleeping soundly slowly opened their drowsy eyes.

Rubbing her eyes, little Miya with silver hair and blue eyes turned her confused gaze toward Ailiya.

“Sister Ailiya? Is it already nine o’clock?”

“Yes~ You should go wash up and change clothes, and eat breakfast. The new private tutor will come at ten. And then, I still need to help Mama take a bath.”

“Oh.” x2

The two girls responded obediently in unison.

Compared to two years ago, the current twins seemed much more well-behaved, and didn’t continue staying in bed or making a fuss about not going to class, but very obediently climbed up. Obviously, Ailiya’s strict education over these two years had been somewhat effective.

Probably…

So then, under Ailiya’s gentle gaze, after the two girls gave Mama Bai Lianyue reluctant kisses on her cheeks from left and right, they put on their little shoes and slowly walked toward the door.

When walking in front of Ailiya, elder sister Miya slowly looked up, staring with watery eyes, and asked curiously:

“Can we help wash together?”

“Well, wait until you’re a bit older. Right now you two… can’t control yourselves.”

“Oh.”

Her little face drooped down, and Miya walked out of the room with some confusion.

However, after Miya left the room, Weiya, who had been following behind her, didn’t immediately keep up, but stopped in front of Ailiya.

“Hm?”

Looking at Weiya holding a little teddy bear, Ailiya asked in confusion:

“What’s wrong, Weiya?”

Faced with her sister’s question, Weiya didn’t answer directly, but thoughtfully turned to look behind her, toward the blue-haired girl sleeping on the bed, and quickly focused her attention on the several flowers on the evil god miss’s head.

“Sister Ailiya, why do all sorts of things grow on Mama’s head? Flowers, grass, fruits and such…”

“Hm?”

Hearing this, an imperceptible strange glint flashed through Ailiya’s pupils.

“Weiya, why are you suddenly asking this question?”

“Just, just feel… Mama seems somewhat different from other people in some ways, and different from us too.” Weiya hugged the little bear in her arms tighter and said quietly.

The previous Weiya might not have cared about these things, but with age and increased exposure to knowledge, Weiya had undoubtedly developed some doubts in her heart.

Seeing this, after a brief silence of several seconds, Ailiya replied with a light laugh:

“There’s nothing to it~ Mama is a Divine-Graced Maiden, a former Divine Departure Realm expert, very special, so naturally she’s different from others~”

“But Sister, you’re also a Divine-Graced Maiden and have reached Divine Departure Realm, so why don’t flowers bloom on your head?”

“That’s because Sister’s attributes are different from Mama’s. Mama has life attributes, so she’s naturally more special~”

Ailiya spoke seriously while raising her hand to affectionately pinch Weiya’s little nose:

“Don’t think too much about it, hurry up and get ready for class~”

“Mm, okay.”

Weiya pouted and nodded. Then the little one somewhat reluctantly followed Miya and left the room.

On the other side,

Watching the backs of her two younger sisters leaving, Ailiya gradually put away the smile on her face, and a trace of gravity quietly emerged.

Miya and Weiya had grown up.

She wondered how much longer she could keep hiding it…

Or rather,

Should she tell them or not?

“Sigh.”
