The two can try it separately, and if the other one fails, she can retain the right to choose her husband later.

To put it bluntly, the mother must have taken a fancy to something about him and wanted to tie him to their family's chariot completely.

This is also a form of political marriage.

But that's what he couldn't understand: he couldn't think of anything that gave Lista Ye a particular advantage.

Aside from being stronger, their noble status and background as newly established nobles are far inferior to those of other established noble families.

It wasn't that young Caesar looked down on Night; in fact, after returning home these past few days, whenever he thought about that assassination attempt, he admired Night's power even more. Caesar, who had loved ancient Greek culture since childhood and had read many heroic epics, was not opposed to Night becoming his brother-in-law.

But you can't be both my brother-in-law and my sister's husband!

This is absolutely outrageous!

At this moment, he faced the expectant yet shy gazes of his daughters.

With composure and elegance, Aurelia uttered the most brutal and savage words: "Of course it's true."

"If you both get pregnant with his child, we can send them both over there; it'll keep you company."

Wow!

The girls let out a scream of shame and indignation. How could their mother teach them to do this?

That's incredibly shameless.

They admitted that they were indeed very interested in the handsome and powerful Ye. They were already interested after hearing his story, and they couldn't take their eyes off him after meeting him in person.

But while there is attraction, there has been research showing that women can be six times more aroused than men. Men love beautiful women, and beautiful women love heroes too.

However, the girls' reserve still made them quite reserved.

All talk of love at first sight is just lust at first sight.

Ironically, these shameless words were something their mothers actively asked them to do.

“I…I will listen to Mother—!” The youngest daughter, Atia, suddenly blushed, but still mustered her courage and spoke boldly.

Julia, the older sister, stared wide-eyed at her beautiful, large eyes, never expecting her usually quiet younger sister to say something so astonishing.

Then——

Seemingly inspired by her sister, a flame ignited in Julia's eyes as well.

The thought that if she disagreed, her sister might get together with that man and even successfully pursue her own happiness, instead of having to give herself to some old man for the sake of the family's interests in the future made her feel uneasy.

A competitive spirit and a sense of urgency that the good things would be gone if she didn't grab them soon made Julia forget about maintaining her shyness and she said, "I'll listen to my mother too!"

Aurelia: "...Very well, then you can all go together."

She smiled at her two daughters with a hint of annoyance. She was only making a suggestion; she didn't force them to go.

After all, they were her own daughters, and she had feelings for them. Aurelia didn't want to pressure her daughters too much, even though she knew she couldn't put as much effort into them as she could into her sons.

After all, in Rome, there were very few women in power; power and wealth were held by men.

Even though Aurelia didn't want to force her daughters to continue to prosper, when it came to paving the way for her son Caesar, she wasn't sure if she could still stay true to herself and not sell her daughters.

In this cannibalistic era, if you don't become stronger, you will be devoured by others. There are many things that they simply don't have a choice in.

Aurelia would feel gratified and blessed if her daughters could now choose their own men based on their own will, at least she wouldn't have to face that difficult choice in the future.

At this moment, little Caesar, who was standing next to him, was completely numb and couldn't get a word in edgewise. He watched as his mother, sister, and younger sister completed an astonishing conversation.

For Caesar, who was still a virgin and had only recently developed male function, this made his mouth dry. Damn it!

At this moment, he even felt a little envious of Listaye.

Can women really be this crazy?

When will he become so charming that noble ladies from established aristocratic families would fight over him and be willing to pay him to stay?

but--

Suddenly remembering something, young Caesar spoke up: "Mother—I remember that Gaius Rufus Octavian of the Octavian family seems to have some feelings for my little sister. He has been pursuing her passionately and insists on marrying her."

As soon as Little Caesar opened his mouth, he suddenly felt a murderous gaze directed at him. It was his usually well-behaved and quiet younger sister.

At this moment, Atia was somewhat anxious and angry, and she now found her brother's tactless remarks extremely annoying.

The Caesars knew something about the Octavian lad's pursuit of Attia.

Before meeting Lista, Atia neither liked nor disliked the Octavian boy who shared the same name as her brother (Gaius).

After all, as the daughter of a noble family, she had no right to decide who her future partner would be.

I just hope the other person isn't an ugly old man, and Gaius Octavian is quite handsome, but that depends on who he's compared to.

Having already undergone several upgrades in understanding the essence of life, the second time they met—that is, when they saw Lista Night's appearance from afar with her mother and the others—they were immediately more captivated than Atia, whose eyes had been spoiled by the experience.

Aurelia's suggestion had completely unleashed the demons within her, freeing her from her shackles and allowing her free spirit to roam freely.

If given a choice, who wouldn't want to choose someone good-looking or handsome?

Not to mention that compared to Lista's strong and fit physique, the Octavian boy, while not exactly a tiny tot, was hardly reassuring.

Atia shouted, "I don't like Octavian at all. Mother finally gave me the opportunity to pursue my own happiness. Does my brother want me to marry someone I don't like?"

Are you really my brother?!

Chapter 157 Because of a single thought, Augustus died in the womb?!

When Attiyah got angry, his words became somewhat sharp, and his voice was perhaps a little loud.

Caesar, afraid of attracting a crowd, was immediately embarrassed and stood there awkwardly, feeling his face burning. He blurted out something without thinking, which made him look incredibly foolish!

But this was his beloved sister, and the two siblings had a very good relationship before. Caesar could only turn red with anger, unable to hit her or scold her.

His noble upbringing made him restrain himself; he didn't want to argue with a woman here. What would it look like if other people his age saw it?

He was a fully grown Roman man about to undergo his coming-of-age ceremony. For a man to argue with a woman, especially his own sister, and to do so in such a manner, regardless of who won or lost, was like a shrewish brawl, which was extremely unbecoming of a nobleman.

Caesar simply shut his mouth, pretending he hadn't said anything.

At this moment, Aurelia Corta stepped forward: "Alright—don't be nervous or worried, Attia—I won't marry you off to that Octavian boy."

A fairly wealthy knightly family with a long history. I saw that his father successfully entered the Senate, which gave the family a chance to rise in rank. I have considered the possibility between you two.

If Octavian's son can work hard and achieve something, with the support of our family, he may also be qualified to be promoted to the Senate.

However, it was only a possibility. Now you have a better option, and as your mother—of course I will support you.

If Ye were standing here right now, overhearing Aurelia and the others' conversation, he would definitely recognize who this seemingly insignificant little family was.

That family later produced the famous Holy Augustus.

This family has just completed a class leap from a knightly family. Old David became a member of the Senate, which also raised the status of the family members.

Just as Aurelia was only qualified to marry into the Julius family after her father became consul.

Both are exemplary figures of commoners rising to the upper class. However, the knight family cannot be considered commoners; rather, they are minor nobles. Aurelia's father's life story is truly inspiring.

Historically, the future young Octavian would marry a woman from the Caesar family. His daughter would have a son after marriage, who would become the famous Augustus—the founder of the Roman Empire, the first true emperor of Rome, and also Julius Caesar's grand-nephew.

But Julius Caesar adopted him into his own family, making him his foster son.

The grand-nephew, or even a nephew, was now on the same generation as his son. When Ye first learned about the family history of this large family in Rome, he felt completely bewildered.

It's comparable to the family of Zeus in Greek mythology, if you only look at the chaos aspect.

Therefore, judging from the relationships, the young Octavian of this era would likely marry Atia, a descendant of Julius Caesar's sister Julia, and have a son, the famous Holy Augustus!

That's right—it's no coincidence that Julia's descendants are also named Attia.

But for some reason, history took a slight detour, and Atia directly replaced her originally unknown sister, becoming the youngest sister in Caesar's family.

However, according to the general trend of history, although the daughter became the younger sister, Octavian of this era did indeed fall for Atia and became particularly fond of her.

Aurelia was unaware that her decision might completely ruin the chances of her son's adopted son, and the birth of an exceptionally outstanding grandson, and even the chances of the first emperor of the Roman Empire being born.

Now that the generations are finally aligned, even if Atia and Octavian's families marry, there won't be any more chaotic situations where a grandson becomes his grandfather's son.

But Atia now looks down on the young Octavian.

The unborn Holy Augustus must be crying his eyes out in the toilet.

With her mother's support, Atia almost jumped up in excitement, like a victorious hen. However, her composure and refinement as a young girl and a noblewoman kept her from overcoming her excitement, though her face was still flushed with emotion.

at the same time--

This unprecedented feeling of rebellion, and the success of that rebellion, was incredibly exciting for Atia. It even made Ye, whom she had only had a slight liking for before, seem more important to her, as if he had truly become her Prince Charming.

What you earn yourself is naturally the best! What kind of country bumpkin from some lowly knight family wants to take her away?

Compared to Lista, Octavian really has no charm at all; he's just too cheap.

This is a sunk cost. They went to great lengths to secure the opportunity to communicate with Lista Night. Even if Night himself was an excellent man, or even if he was of average appearance and talent, he would still be a hundred times better than Octavian in Atia's eyes at this moment.

The saying "a simp never gets a good death" applies here.

The easier it is to obtain love, the less it is cherished by others.

At this moment, young Octavian, completely unaware that his goddess had already categorized him as a loser and a nouveau riche from the countryside, happened to be in this arena as well.

As Caesar's family entered, Gaius Octavian (who shared the same name as his son, and from then on distinguished the three generations as Old Octavian, Gaius Octavian, and Augustus Octavian) spotted his beloved Attia.

It has to be said that Gaius Octavian was a complete lolicon.

Atia, the younger sister, is now even younger than Caesar, clearly a little girl. However, Octavian didn't take a fancy to his older sister, who was beginning to blossom into a beautiful and developing figure. Instead, he was drawn to the little girl.

Although being young was not a big deal in Rome, and many nobles began to experience adult sexual life at a very young age, considering that Gaius Octavian had his eye on Atia, who was originally supposed to be Julia's daughter, he was even younger.

He's definitely an old cow trying to eat young grass; calling him a lolicon is absolutely accurate.

At this moment, Gaius Octavian was unaware that he was being cuckolded. Holding a glass of wine, he bid farewell to his friends and prepared to visit his goddess and her family.

But before he could get any closer, he saw Little Caesar and the two sisters walking towards him.

!!!

Suddenly—Gaius Octavian was delighted. This—did he come to me on his own initiative?

Could it be that Octavian's sincere heart has finally won over the little princess of the Caesar family?

When he saw his beloved Atia looking at him with a shy and timid expression, full of anticipation, longing and curiosity, he realized that Atia was looking in his direction.

Gaius Octavian gave what he considered a very handsome, composed, and serene smile.
