Do you think this world is serious?

"Anila understands, meow!"

Anila instantly woke up, all sleepiness gone.

Gana chuckled softly, then sat on the fabric sofa with Anila in her arms. Her slender fingers gently stroked Anila's fur, causing Anila to let out a comfortable nasal sound.

On the other side, Kiana wanted to ask Shigure Kira about Janna, but felt that now was not the time to chat, so she temporarily suppressed her doubts and curiosity.

Before long, her attention was drawn away by the two Cecilias, and she struggled to resist their attempts to serve her food.

"Enough, enough!"

"Mom, you don't need to keep putting food on my plate, you guys eat too."

Kiana could perfectly parry Principal Cecilia's moves, but she couldn't stop the stronger Cecilia.

If she focuses on fending off Cecilia, the headmistress Cecilia will take the opportunity to serve her food.

In just a short while, Kiana's bowl was piled high with all sorts of food.

"You look very thin. You probably haven't been eating properly lately, have you?"

"Um……"

Kiana lowered her eyes and made a somewhat muffled nasal sound.

Cecilia seemed helpless, or perhaps she sighed softly. Taking advantage of Kiana's inattention, she put some more food on Kiana's plate and continued, "Although it's a bit late, Kiana, we won't let you go hungry from now on~ Be sure to come home for meals often."

"Oh……"

Kiana responded hesitantly, then suddenly felt a lump in her throat, as if tears were about to spill over again.

"Is Kiana going to cry? She's all grown up now, but she's still such a crybaby~"

Shigure Kira noticed Kiana's slightly reddened eyes and teased her without any restraint, to get revenge for Kiana's earlier comment about her age.

After Shigure Kira's interruption, Kiana's brewing emotions came to an abrupt halt, leaving her with a sense of being stuck in a rut.

Seeing Shi Yu Qi Luo's smug look, even though the other party was her elder, she couldn't help but feel a surge of anger.

Given that Shigure Kira possesses at least the combat power of an S-rank Valkyrie, Kiana could only channel her grief and anger into her appetite, treating the food in front of her as an "imaginary enemy," fiercely tearing it apart and biting into pieces.

Chen Xiuming watched with great interest the little exchange between Shiyu Qiluo and Kiana, and then he found that his bowl had been piled up with a small mountain of food.

When the two Cecilias were serving food to Kiana, they didn't show favoritism; in fact, they gave Chen Xiuming even more food.

"Cecilia, I'm not sure I can eat that much..."

"No~"

Cecilia and Principal Cecilia said in unison, "Darling, you have to finish it all~ Otherwise, how will you have the energy tonight?"

Although they all wore gentle smiles, Chen Xiuming inexplicably felt as if a "succubus" was smiling at him.

In order to maintain harmony in his married life, he could only grit his teeth and finish the meal in front of him.

Kiana, her mouth stuffed full, glanced at Chen Xiuming without leaving a trace, and suddenly felt a sense of comfort, her gaze towards Chen Xiuming filled with a sense of shared misery.

but……

"He seems to have a very close relationship with his mother..."

Kiana couldn't help but mutter to herself as she thought about how the two Cecilias addressed Chen Xiuming as "darling".

Could Chen Xiuming be her stepfather?

No, "stepfather" isn't quite right, since neither of the two mothers are actually their biological mothers...

While pondering, Kiana couldn't help but scratch her hair, feeling an itch on her head, as if her brain was about to grow.

……

After meal.

Because Shigure Kira sneaked a bite before the meal and teased Kiana during the meal, the two Cecilias unanimously decided to send her to wash the dishes.

When Shigure Kira's protests went unanswered, she could only hang her head and go into the kitchen to wash the dishes.

"Kiana, why don't you stay here tonight?"

Cecilia pulled Kiana toward the living room, extending an invitation as she did so.

Kiana was very interested, but worried about finding a place to stay, so she tentatively asked, "Are there any rooms available?"

"Of course, we're only using two empty rooms right now."

"Huh? Only two rooms were used?"

Kiana looked puzzled, first glancing at the two Cecilias, then at Janna sitting on the sofa, and then thinking of Shigure Kira washing the dishes...

This doesn't look like it was only used in two rooms, does it?

Kiana was completely baffled.
