Let's start over, Your Majesty.

Chapter 176 He's completely infatuated with me (3k views)

"I also wish my relationship with my brother could be better."

Upon hearing this, Ita immediately raised his head.

“What did you say?” she asked.

"I... I was just saying it casually, please excuse me," Serwyn quickly waved his hand and said.

“There are only the two of us here, you don’t need to be so reserved,” Ita said.
"You just said you wanted your brother to like you a little more, right?"

Serwin looked embarrassed, but nodded nonetheless: "Because, my brother used to be very good to me, but lately he's become increasingly distant, especially recently. Our relationship has become very strained. He was sick yesterday, and this morning when I wanted to go inside to check on him, he wouldn't let me in."

I think I must have done something wrong to make my brother suddenly hate me so much.

"So, I want to be more mature and make fewer mistakes, so that my brother will like me more."

"Is this so"

A slight smile appeared on Itana's previously indifferent face as she leaned back in her office chair.

"Then you've asked the right person."

"Huh?" Servin looked at Ita in confusion.

Ita chuckled: "Let me tell you, actually, I'm quite experienced in handling relationships."

"Really?" Serwyn's eyes lit up immediately.

"Of course, haha, it's no exaggeration to say that he's completely infatuated with me now. He can't wait to see me every day, which is really annoying for me."

Ita said without batting an eye, "Anyway, no one will know if I brag a little in front of the kids."

"Ah!"

Caesar sneezed suddenly and rubbed his nose.

"No, how come you caught a cold too? Don't infect me." Leon moved to the side.

"How could that be? It was just the fur on my scarf that brushed against my nose." Caesar straightened his scarf, not really caring.

"Well, um... I just want my brother to treat me like he used to," Seren said, blushing and waving her hands hastily.

"Oh, that's fine then." Ita flicked a strand of hair behind her ear.

"Tell me first, what kind of person is your brother? I'll help you vet him."

“He’s a guy who’s cold on the outside but warm on the inside,” Serwyn said, carefully choosing his words. “Although everyone outside thinks he’s short-tempered and unreasonable, he’s incredibly kind to me at home.”

“Our parents didn’t care much about us when we were little. Before we hired a maid, my older brother took care of me, cooked for me, did my laundry, and helped me with my homework. Sometimes when my parents argued, he would take me out to play. He was a bit stern, but he always did it for my own good.”

Serwyn sighed, "But about two weeks ago, his attitude towards me started getting worse and worse. He would yell at me over trivial things, and after we had a fight about the taste of our cooking, he completely stopped talking to me."

"I've been wondering if I did something wrong that made him suddenly dislike me, but thinking back, everything has been normal before, nothing happened. Maybe I really did something wrong without realizing it and upset my brother."

Serwyn said, then lowered his head in frustration.

"Yes, I see. I understand." Ita nodded.

"There are only three possible reasons for this situation: First, you probably did something wrong without realizing it, which upset him; second, your brother knows some secret about your family and has to get angry at you for some reason; third, well, maybe he suddenly changed his opinion of you, but only he knows what that opinion is."

After she finished her analysis, she looked at Serwyn and asked, "What do you think?"

"I," Seren thought for a moment, and said, "Firstly, if it's my fault, I will definitely correct it. Secondly, I think that since I'm also family, given my brother's personality, he will definitely tell me what happened and let me face it together. He won't hide anything from me. Thirdly..."

Serwyn looked puzzled: "What exactly do you mean by 'changed opinion'?"

"Well," Ita chuckled.

"What I really want to say is that, in either case, there is only one thing you should do."

"What?" Servin tilted his head. "Be honest, say whatever's on your mind, and go ask him yourself what happened," Ita said.
"Since you two had such a good relationship before, he definitely wouldn't abandon you as his sister. As long as you are sincere enough, you will definitely be able to move him and make him tell you the reason himself. Then you can solve any problems that arise. It's better than the cold war you're in now."

"Is this really okay?" Serwyn asked worriedly.

“Of course it works, I’m a prime example.” Ita patted his flat chest.

"Ah!"

Caesar sneezed suddenly again.

“You really do have a cold!” Leon said, pointing at him.

"Tsk, never mind, I'll just put my thermal underwear back on." Caesar sighed and put the thermal underwear he had just taken off back on.

"So, you need to have the courage, the courage to be honest, Servin," Ita said earnestly.
"You said it before, right? This is the first step to becoming mature. Since you have this determination, you should do it. As for failures and setbacks, you will never grow up if you don't experience them."

She spoke with great logic and reason, and Serwyn seemed to understand something as well.

"Yes, no matter what, my brother loves me. If something really happens, all I need to do is ask him and find out."

“Yes, that’s right. There’s nothing that can’t be resolved between family members,” Ita said. “But before you confess, you’d better find a suitable opportunity, or wait for an opportunity. You always have to understand that the time is right.”

"I understand! Thank you, Teacher Ita!"

Serwyn stood up and bowed politely to her.

She never expected that this petite, aloof dragon-human teacher would tell her so much, and that she didn't seem as cold as she appeared; on the contrary, she seemed very kind.

Just then, the sound of a key turning in the lock came from next door; the physics teacher had returned.

"Well then, Professor Ita, thank you again for your guidance, and I'm really sorry for taking up your time."

“It’s alright, go ahead,” Ita waved to her.

After giving her another greeting, Serene left her office, a more cheerful smile on her face than when she came in.

But the smile vanished as he walked out the door, and then, a faint purple light inadvertently flashed in Serwyn's eyes.

Those eyes glanced back at Ita's office, then vanished without a trace.

Her expression returned to normal.

When school was over, Ita got into the car to go home.

“Master, we received a message from the Kingdom Theater that the 004 VIP room you reserved can't fit a four-poster bunk bed. Also, they haven't received the erotic fragrance you requested. Can we replace it with an invigorating fragrance?” Delina turned around and asked.

"Tsk, this won't do. What kind of Kingdom Theater is this? It's so low-class," Ita said irritably. "He waved his hand and told them that if they can't handle it, they should let the family handle it. They should stop interfering."

"Yes, and also, Princess Sia's birthday banquet on the fourth of next month has invited us, you see."

"Go ahead," Ita scoffed. "Since they've invited us, are we going to play dumb? Don't forget we won last time."

“Yes, you need to find a dance partner,” said Dalina.

“I know, I’ll tell Caesar later,” Ita said.
"Young Master Caesar, would you be willing?"

"Hmm?" Ita frowned and looked at Delina.

“What I mean is, young master Caesar is quite popular, isn’t he? As classmates, he’ll definitely be invited this time. Maybe some girls in the class will ask him to be their dance partner first. After all, you and he are teacher and student in the eyes of outsiders now,” said Dalina.

Ita remained silent for a moment, seemingly sensing something was amiss.

"Heh, don't worry about that. How could he possibly refuse me? Even if other girls invite him, he'll definitely refuse and wait for me, right?" she said with a hint of smugness.

"Does Caesar even know you're his lover?" Delina thought helplessly.
