There was a hint of watching the fun in his tone.

Melyuchina's dragon tail swayed unconsciously, drawing a subtle arc on the stone floor.

A few feathers slowly fell from the sky, which were the traces left by the startled night birds.

Bawanshi snorted lightly and turned away, but the corners of her mouth rose slightly, obviously finding the scene interesting.

------------

The pink-haired fairy gracefully picked up the bone china teacup, took a sip of black tea with her red lips, and suddenly paused.

"This cup of tea?"

Her grey eyes widened slightly as she looked at the silver-haired head maid standing beside her.

"Did you add blood..."

"Of course~"

Remlia puffed out her chest proudly, and the bow on her head trembled happily.

"The black tea specially blended by Sakuya is the signature of our Scarlet Devil Mansion!"

Sakuya bowed slightly, a professional smile in her gray-brown eyes:

"I wonder if this black tea suits your taste?"

"..."

Bawanshi was silent for a moment, her long pink hair shimmering like pearls under the light.

When she picked up the teacup again, her movements were obviously much more relaxed:

“It’s really delicious.”

However, Melyuchina's dragon tail slapped the back of the chair anxiously, and her golden vertical pupils stared at Bawanshi, who had always been dignified and generous.

Finally, she could no longer bear it and slammed the table and said:

"Bawanshi! Can you please stop being so pretentious? You're giving me the creeps!"

The teacup and saucer made a crisp clash sound.

Suddenly, the veins on Ba Wanxi's forehead bulged, and the knuckles of his fingers holding the teacup turned white.

"Cough-cough-"

Zhou Yuan coughed lightly at the right moment and calmly placed his hand on Ba Wanxi's slightly trembling shoulder.

"It's okay, it's okay. We actually still welcome you."

As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere of the entire tea party suddenly relaxed.

Little Heita had quietly refilled Ba Wanxi's tea without her noticing, his purple eyes flickering with a thoughtful glint.

Remlia quietly observed this strange girl. Although they were both from the vampire clan, she always felt that the girl in front of her was a little different.

Bawanshi's shoulders gradually relaxed, she hummed softly, but still sipped the black tea.

By the way, she politely responded to a certain vampire lady with a bright smile, which made the lady lower her face and feel a little embarrassed.

Melyuchina curled her lips, and the dragon's tail reluctantly stopped flapping, but her golden eyes were still fixed on the girl opposite.

Yes, I'm posting three times this week, kids!

Chapter 44 Bavanshi: Father~

"Ah, that..."

The girl's voice came from behind, with some hesitation and awkwardness.

Her slender fingers twisted the hem of her skirt nervously, and her long dark pink hair shone softly in the candlelight.

"Master...Master..."

Bawanshi's voice became smaller and smaller, and finally became almost a whisper.

She was obviously not used to this name, and her delicate face flushed slightly.

Zhou Yuan turned around and looked at the elf girl's embarrassed look, and couldn't help but soften his voice:

"If you're not used to it, you can call me whatever you want."

The girl was slightly startled when she heard this, and a glimmer of light flashed in her gray gemstone-like eyes.

She bit her lower lip lightly and suddenly showed a sly smile:

"Okay, Father."

"okay..."

Zhou Yuan responded subconsciously, then suddenly realized:

"Wait? What did you just call me?!"

----------

The courtyard of the Scarlet Devil Mansion.

Zhou Yuan and the fairy servant with dark pink hair sat opposite each other across a carved tea table. The silver tea set shone with a pearly luster under the moonlight.

"Can you tell me...what this special name means?"

There was a hint of hesitation in his tone, but his eyes never left the girl across from him.

Amid the aroma of tea, he noticed a cunning glint in the other person's gray eyes.

"Oh? Father, are you wondering why I called you that?"

The fairy girl// gracefully picked up the teacup, her long dark pink hair cascading down like water as she moved.

Her voice suddenly became soft and solemn, completely different from her usual proud and arrogance.

"cough--"

This name made Zhou Yuan choke again, and the tea almost spilled on his clothes.

He put down the teacup, wiped the corner of his mouth with his fingertips, and smiled helplessly:

"Please also explain... this, uh, special title."

The girl's slender fingertips gently stroked the edge of the gilded teacup. The moonlight cast tiny shadows on her eyelashes, adding a bit of mystery to her.

"In the ancient tradition of the fairies..."

Her voice suddenly took on a chanting rhythm, as if she was telling an ancient legend.

“Only two parties who have entered into the deepest of contracts would use such a term.”

She leaned forward slightly, and the lily ornament in her hair trembled slightly, gleaming like pearls in the moonlight:

"Not only did you summon me, you also unconsciously triggered the most primitive contract magic."

A mysterious smile appeared on her red lips.

"So, this is both a title of respect and... a testament to fate~"

"Is that really all?"

Zhou Yuan did not disbelieve her words, but he could feel that there seemed to be something hidden in the words of this fairy girl.

The gleam in her eyes and the subtle angle of her mouth all hinted that this explanation might only be part of the truth.

……

"Ah..."

At this moment, a teasing voice suddenly came from the shadows of the courtyard.

Melyuchina's long silver hair shimmered in the moonlight. She leaned lazily against the stone pillar, her golden vertical pupils full of mockery.

"You say you want to observe etiquette, but in the end you still sneak in to get close to me?"

This silver dragon fairy had been observing quietly here since someone had seen it.

She seemed to find the current behavior of her former colleague somewhat amusing, and there was a hint of teasing in her tone.

"Mei Lu Xin!"

Ba Wanxi lost her composure instantly, and her delicate face flushed with anger.

She stood up suddenly, her long dark pink hair flying in the night wind:

"You still have the nerve to tell me?"

Slender fingers pointed directly at each other,

"You are truly shameless for attacking the person of our mother... the Queen!"

"Humph~"

Far from feeling ashamed, Melyusina proudly puffed out her chest, her silver dragon tail swaying happily behind her:

"What are you talking about? I am Lancelot!"

She deliberately dragged out her tone, with a cunning glint in her eyes:

"You don't really think that Her Majesty the Queen will let me out without knowing about it, do you?"

A mocking smile played at the corner of her mouth.

"you!!!"

Bawanshi was shaking with anger, and anger was burning in her gray eyes.

She opened her mouth to retort, but found herself at a loss for words.

In the courtyard, the figures of the two fairy girls confronting each other were stretched out in the moonlight, casting interlaced silhouettes on the bluestone slabs.

Only then did Zhou Yuan put down the teacup thoughtfully.

It seems that there are many interesting secrets between these two girls, but since they don't want to talk about it, now is not the time to ask.

So he stood up calmly, the moonlight flowing on his fresh clothes, giving him a soft silver edge.

"OK OK."

The voice was as gentle as the night breeze, intervening between the two of them just right.

"Although I don't know what kind of entanglement you had in the past..."

He reached out and first gently rubbed Melyuchina's head.

Silver hair rubbed against his palm like silk. The dragon fairy reluctantly suppressed his hostility and narrowed his eyes slightly like a comforted cat.

Then he turned to Bavanshi, and the girl's gray eyes widened in surprise.

Zhou Yuan carefully tidied up her messy hair, and his fingertips accidentally touched the tip of her ear which was slightly hot.

"But now is not the time to dwell on these things, right?"

There was a reassuring warmth in his voice.

The two fairy girls turned their heads away at the same time, but neither of them said anything in rebuttal.

Zhou Yuan nodded in satisfaction, turned around and picked up the gilded teapot:

"Would you like to join me for a cup of tea?"

After a moment's silence, the two girls silently took their respective teacups and sat on the stone bench in the middle of the courtyard.

……

"Miss, that pink girl...is she from the same tribe as you?"

The silver-haired head maid looked through the stained-glass window, her eyes fixed on the pink figure in the distant courtyard.

The silver tray in her hand reflected the moonlight, illuminating her thoughtful expression.
