The so-called hungry wolf was Paul. Alice accepted the ring with a smile. Looking at the girl in front of him, Roya had a sense of unreality.
He really wanted to call Rudius out and show him what a real smile looked like.
After his usual scathing critique of Rudius, Roja continued sipping his wine.
Before we knew it, it was already night outside, with the bright moon hanging high in the sky. Outside, the moon shone brightly, while inside, the candlelight cast a dim glow.
Roya's pupils swept across their faces, a hint of emotion in his eyes, but he said nothing.
After the two had eaten and drunk their fill, all the food on the table had been eaten, leaving only a mess.
Luo Ya went out and stopped a passing maid, beckoned her to come over, pointed to the somewhat unsightly table in front of him, and said to her, "Could you please tidy up for me?"
The little maid's cat ears perked up, her tail swaying behind her, and she whispered, "No trouble at all, no trouble at all."
Then he started tidying up the things on the table for Roya.
Watching the maid pack her things, Gilead, having finished eating and drinking, casually remarked, "Oh, it's time for me to leave too."
After saying that, he walked straight outside, leaving Alice behind.
After the maid finished tidying up, only Roya and Alice remained in the room.
Alice's cheeks were flushed, and she was already slightly tipsy. Her eyes were a little glazed, and her breathing was very uneven.
Hmm, she seemed somewhat confused and bewildered.
Whether it was because she found it too hot or too troublesome, Alice was fiddling with her elegant blue dress with some irritation, as if she really wanted to change her clothes.
Looking at the girl, Luo Ya smiled and said, "Alice, why don't you go back to sleep?"
Alice pouted, looking unhappy, and said to Roya, "Hey, you're disgusted with me?"
Luo Ya shook his head and patted the other's head, saying, "No, don't talk nonsense."
Alice slumped into the chair, determined not to leave, while the other party said matter-of-factly, "In that case, I'll stay here tonight."
Roya looked at Alice, who was swaying and unsteady on her feet, and fell silent.
With no other option, Roya sighed, walked up to Alice, and gently picked her up.
Alice was stunned by Roya's actions. Her not-yet-fully-conscious rationality was rapidly fading. She carried the girl to the bedside, her cheeks already flushed red.
Chapter 104 Conversation
Children in this world mature very early, and Alice knew about that kind of thing very early on.
However, if it were actually placed in front of her, she would feel somewhat hesitant and afraid.
She sobered up considerably, her drunken state subsided, and her heart was pounding. Looking at the handsome face so close to her, she suddenly felt that if it was Luo Ya, if it was this man in front of her, he might not be so bad after all.
Roya had no idea that the little brat in front of him would have such strange and wonderful ideas. After picking her up and putting her on the bed, he took off Alice's high heels. Alice was staring at the ceiling with her fiery red eyes.
After Roya took off the other person's shoes, he looked up and saw Alice's beautiful, clear, fiery red eyes.
At this point, Alice was no longer the drunkard she had been.
That makes sense, since wine doesn't have a high alcohol content. Although he didn't know how the other person woke up, Roya still asked, "Will Alice sleep here tonight?"
Alice didn't speak, but tilted her head to meet Roya's eyes, then looked away and nodded.
Luo Ya said "Oh," moved the little girl a bit further inside, covered her with a blanket, and then got up and walked to the chair. Luo Ya didn't plan to go to bed so early.
Alice watched the other person prepare to leave and suddenly said, "Um, it's my birthday today."
Roya turned around in surprise and looked at Alice. He didn't understand why Alice would suddenly say that.
Alice blushed and said, "Then, can you grant me a small wish?"
Roya fell silent. Looking at Alice's posture, he wasn't stupid; he roughly guessed what was going on in his mind.
Alice continued, "I... I want you to stay with me and not leave."
It's hard to believe that such an arrogant young lady could say such a thing, but since she's already said it, it wouldn't be right for me to refuse.
Roya nodded, and Alice let out a long breath, continuing to lie on her back on the bed, staring at the unfamiliar ceiling.
The light from the oil lamp illuminated the ceiling, and the soft bedding gently touched Alice's cheek. Gazing at the unfamiliar ceiling, she gradually felt drowsy and eventually drifted off to sleep.
Sitting in the chair, Roya looked up at Alice, who was fast asleep, his expression somewhat complicated.
He realized that Alice seemed to have some feelings for him.
Girls at this age are often just beginning to experience romantic feelings and don't really understand what love is.
So the question is, should I accept the other person?
The thought of Alice gave Roya a headache.
He's a straightforward and naive guy, and to be honest, Roya doesn't dislike him.
Although the other person often doesn't consider too much, it is precisely this personality that makes Luo Ya even more lovable.
I already have Loki, so adding Alice now doesn't seem like a bad idea.
In this world, having multiple wives and concubines is the norm, and the thought of this made Luo Ya feel a little restless.
Okay, Roya has laid his cards on the table.
He was actually somewhat attracted to Alice.
Luo Ya rubbed his temples, his thoughts churning.
Nothing happened that night. When Roya got out of bed the next day, he saw Alice, who had gotten up at some point, peeking at him.
Roya got up, yawned, and said to Alice, "Good morning."
Alice nodded, feeling somewhat embarrassed as she recalled what had happened last night.
Roya didn't have many reservations. He got up, dressed, and changed into a short-sleeved shirt that he usually wore at home. He looked at Alice and said, "Well, I'm going on a long trip in a while. I'll have Rudius teach you then."
Alice opened her eyes and was somewhat surprised to hear the news that the boy was preparing to go on a long trip.
Alice asked, "Where are you planning to go?"
Roya thought for a moment and said to Alice, "It's a secret. Anyway, I'll be back eventually."
Alice pursed her lips and muttered, "So mysterious."
However, she didn't ask anything further. Roya said to Alice, "Go wash up. Your birthday is over. Let's work hard together from now on. Alice, you want to become stronger, right? Strong enough to protect all of this."
Roya's words had no effect on Alice. Alice's face fell, and she said listlessly, "I know, this is so annoying."
After saying that, he stormed out of the house.
Alice's expression froze the moment she opened the door.
No wonder, Rudius was standing behind the door. He was looking rather furtive.
Alice was taken aback and gave Rudius a disapproving look. Rudius was also a little embarrassed and weakly greeted Alice.
"Hello, Alice."
Alice looked at Rudius expressionlessly and sneered, "What are you doing outside the door?"
Rudius waved his hand sheepishly and said to Alice, "Nothing, nothing. I just happened to hear something inside the house and came to see what was going on."
Alice slapped Rudius hard on the forehead.
He said with dissatisfaction, "You're always sneaking around like this."
After saying that, he snorted coldly, ignored Rudius, and walked outside.
Rudius subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, but he clearly didn't know that this hurdle was not yet over.
Roya said calmly to him, "Can you explain what's going on?"
Rudius gave a smile that looked more like a grimace. His face was stiff as he slowly turned his head and said to Roya, "That should be the case."
Roya looked at Rudius expressionlessly.
His expression was playful.
Rudius immediately knelt down and said loudly, "I'm sorry, brother, I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again next time. I admit that I had some other thoughts. I was just, cough, a little curious."
Luo Ya pursed his lips, speechless.
Without elaborating further, Roya said to Rudius, "Since you're here, I don't need to look for you. I plan to leave tomorrow, and I'll leave the rest of the time to you, Alice."
Rudius was taken aback. He looked at Roya curiously and asked, "Are you planning to leave tomorrow? Didn't you say you'd be leaving in a while?"
Roya glanced at Rudius and said nonchalantly, "Tomorrow is just a while away, isn't it?"
Rudius was speechless; his reasoning was sound and irrefutable.
However, while that's the argument, it still contains a degree of sophistry.
Rudius continued expressionlessly, "So, how long do you plan to be gone? Let me make this clear beforehand: Alice is not someone I can control."
Chapter 105 New World
Roya fell into deep thought. This departure would likely take quite some time. Although he could use his spacetime powers to manipulate the flow of time, he still needed to give the other party an answer. After thinking for a moment, Roya asked, "Three months? Or two months?"
Rudius was immediately displeased. He shouted, "Two months? You want me to teach Alice all by myself for two months? Do you want to come back and find your dear brother's corpse?"
