Volume 5, Chapter 30 – The Ancestor’s Examination Method… Isn’t It Too Ordinary?

Several dozen minutes later, in the room arranged for Ailiya at the Bai family residence.

Miss Ailiya, acting as the “Honored Ancestor,” led the evil god lady, her “descendant,” into the room.

Upon entering, the evil god lady instinctively frowned.

This room… Wasn’t this Nuoyu’s room? Ailiya was actually staying in Nuoyu’s room? Hadn’t the old man always forbidden others from entering this room? Why…

All at once, numerous questions arose in Bai Lianyue’s mind.

However, Bai Lianyue undoubtedly had no energy to continue pondering this question. At this moment, she had to focus her attention on what was before her—her daughter who was playing the role of an ancestor.

Currently, Ailiya, dressed in her cheongsam, had her hands behind her back and was smiling while observing her.

Saying nothing, just smiling like that, it made the evil god lady inexplicably anxious.

“Um, Honored Ancestor, wh-what is it?”

Perhaps because she had already called her this once, calling “Honored Ancestor” again didn’t seem to cause Bai Lianyue as much psychological burden.

Hearing this, Ailiya tilted her head and said meaningfully:

“Little Xingwu, is there anything you’d like to tell me?”

“Tell you?”

Looking around, Bai Lianyue blinked in confusion.

Hmm, does she want me to reveal my true identity?

I’m not a corpse puppet, what is there to confess?

Wait a minute? Could Ailiya have seen through my disguise?

Well, that seems unlikely, right? I’ve disguised myself so well. Besides, if Ailiya had recognized me, with no one else around, she probably would have jumped into my arms by now.

Rеaԁ oո КatRеadiոɡСаfе

So! It must be fine!

The evil god lady confidently came to this conclusion in her mind.

Additionally, although now would indeed be an appropriate time to come clean with Ailiya, considering that her earlier cute actions might have been observed by Ailiya, and she had awkwardly called her “ancestor”…

To protect her dignity as a mother, Bai Lianyue was temporarily too embarrassed to admit her identity…

So, Bai Lianyue blinked adorably and tilted her head in confusion.

“Honored Ancestor, I don’t understand what you mean.”

“…”

After receiving this answer, a barely perceptible glint flashed in Ailiya’s eyes.

The next moment, the silver-haired girl smiled calmly.

“I’m just saying. Don’t worry about it, Xingwu.”

“Oh.”

“Now then, shall we get down to business?”

“Business?”

“Yes, to verify whether you’re really a descendant of the Bai family? Or… some kind of impostor?”

As she spoke, Ailiya took the opportunity to reach out and pinch Bai Lianyue’s cheek.

“Hehe, come with me~”

“Yes, Honored Ancestor.”

Reаd оn ΚαtReαdіngСafе

A serious light flashed in the evil god lady’s eyes.

Identity verification?

With Ailiya looking so mysterious, does she really have some special method to test me?

If I’m discovered, wouldn’t that be even more embarrassing?

Thinking this, Bai Lianyue took a deep breath anxiously, her face showing a hint of uneasiness.

…

However, after an hour had passed, the uneasiness in Bai Lianyue’s heart had transformed into bewilderment.

Because during this hour, Ailiya’s so-called “testing” wasn’t what Bai Lianyue had imagined, but rather consisted of some??

Well, very ordinary daily interactions?

Like making and drinking tea, eating some sunflower seeds, helping arrange her hair, or asking which clothes in fashion magazines looked better?

This had nothing to do with identity verification—they weren’t even remotely related.

??? What’s going on?

Sitting on the sofa, Bai Lianyue couldn’t help but wonder.

Just as Bai Lianyue was lost in thought, a lazy voice quietly reached her ears.

“What’s wrong, Xingwu? Why did you stop? We can begin now~”

Hearing this, the evil god lady glanced sideways toward the beautiful silver-haired girl beside her.

At this moment, our young Ailiya was lazily leaning against the other end of the soft sofa.

Her silver hair cascaded like a waterfall over her shoulders and the cushions, catching the room’s soft light and giving off a delicate sheen.

Rеaԁ oո KаtRеaⅾіnɡCаfе

She raised her chin slightly, her expression containing a hint of cunning and satisfaction.

As she spoke, her slender foot rose up and was unceremoniously placed on Bai Lianyue’s lap.

Those small feet wrapped in black stockings swayed gently, with her toes slightly trembling, as if casually testing Bai Lianyue’s patience, yet with a hint of mischief.

Ailiya’s lips curved in a smile, her cherry-colored eyes blinked, seemingly making a silent request—or rather, a command—strongly demanding that Bai Lianyue help her apply beautiful nail polish.

Glancing at the small bottle on the table, Ailiya playfully poked the evil god lady’s cheek with her foot.

“Help me with this, Xingwu. Girls your age should be good at this sort of thing, right~”

Having her face repeatedly poked, the evil god lady’s mood grew increasingly complex.

It’s worth noting that she was an evil god, after all.

In the past, no one had ever dared to be so presumptuous as to poke her face with their foot.

Even evil gods have dignity, you know!!

“Honored Ancestor… doing this, aren’t you afraid I might bite your foot?” Bai Lianyue pouted, expressing a bit of her irritation.

In response, however, Ailiya raised her eyebrows with interest.

“Oh? Is that so? Go ahead and try~ I’m also curious how a descendant like you would dare~”

As she spoke, Ailiya continued to cheekily pinch Bai Lianyue’s face with her small foot, making Bai Lianyue increasingly perplexed.

Seeing no reaction from Bai Lianyue, Ailiya became even more uninhibited, using her small foot to poke Bai Lianyue’s waist one moment, her chest the next, and then teasing her thigh~

In response, the evil god lady wanted to lose her temper, but considering that Ailiya knew nothing about the situation, she ultimately swallowed her anger.

“Hmm…”

Rеаd οո ΚatRеaⅾіոɡСαfе

After some hesitation, the resigned Bai Lianyue sighed helplessly.

“Fine, Honored Ancestor…”

Then, the evil god lady gently held Ailiya’s calf and placed the restless leg on her own lap.

Having her cheek constantly poked by Ailiya’s foot felt strange… almost as if she were being teased?

Thus, the evil god lady’s fingertips felt the warm, delicate sensation through the stockings.

To avoid smudging the color she was about to apply, she carefully rolled the stocking down from the thigh.

As the stocking slipped away, the silver-haired girl’s snow-white, soft foot was finally completely exposed to the air, her skin so delicate it seemed to reflect light.

Beside her, Ailiya, like a triumphant kitten, curled her toes slightly with a satisfied smile, quietly watching the black-haired girl busy before her.

Next, Bai Lianyue, pouting, took the delicate bottle of nail polish, carefully unscrewed the cap, dipped the small brush, and meticulously applied it to Ailiya’s toenails. With each application, the gloss flowed across the small curved surface~

For a moment, the air was filled with a faint fragrance, both the sweet scent of nail polish and the warm fragrance unique to young women, making this moment particularly quiet and gentle~

Although the evil god lady had been a rough man in her previous life, during her time on Earth, she had actually helped someone apply nail polish before…

At that time, while still at the Bai family, she had often been asked by her little demon-like master to help apply nail polish.

Because of this, Bai Lianyue performed these actions with practiced ease.

It was quite remarkable… despite not having done this for a thousand years, the evil god lady didn’t find her hands rusty.

Moreover, there was a strange sense of nostalgia…

…

—”How to put it? Overall, it feels… not bad?”—
