You've found the Gusha-hime Knight, so put your hair up in a bun!

"Just say what you want to say, why are you glaring at me like that?"

Feeling the intense gazes from the two women in front of him, Shiloh smiled helplessly.

Upon hearing Shiro's words, Cecilia bit her lip, snorted coldly, and said, "With so many women already, could Mr. Shiro please tone down his charm? Aren't you afraid of dying on a woman's belly one day..."

Cecilia muttered to herself, and although Aria beside her didn't say anything, her expression clearly showed that she agreed with what Cecilia said.

Silo raised an eyebrow, looking at Cecilia's indignant face with amusement, and said, "If Arya said that, then she's innocent of it, but you...?"

Feeling the contemptuous gaze that Shilo gave her after scrutinizing her from head to toe, Cecilia trembled. Humiliation and shame welled up from within, turning the girl's fair face bright red.

"What?! This kind of thing isn't determined solely by one's extraordinary rank, and besides, you even learned that kind of foul skill. This isn't my problem!"

Cecilia trembled with anger at the way the dog was being stared at. She gripped the fabric of her dress tightly with both hands and frantically tried to defend herself.

"hehe."

Xi Luo remained noncommittal, only chuckling twice, the mockery in his voice self-evident.

Cecilia opened her mouth, her eyebrows furrowing.

He wanted to refute it, but he didn't know where to begin. After all, it was a fact that he was no match for Shiro all by himself.

No matter how many excuses I could come up with, I could not overturn this fact.

Cecilia didn't dare to impulsively ask Shiloh to fight her one-on-one... She was still a little uncomfortable sitting on the cushion, feeling like she hadn't fully absorbed the fiery dragon breath inside her body...

Cecilia fell silent, her face flushed with embarrassment and anger, but she could only lower her head and shut her mouth.

Damn it, when I get home I'm definitely going to—!

Cecilia gritted her teeth, her mind already racing with plans for what would happen after she returned to Maple Leaf Territory.

Defeating the big bad wolf, Shiloh, is clearly not something that can be done by one person alone.

Let's not even talk about the little girl; she has almost no fighting ability.

Miss Arya seems to be quite resilient, but she probably hasn't done anything special with Shilo yet, so she's not really a combat power; at most, she can be a support.

In other words, the only person he could truly team up with was Elena.

Cecilia pursed her lips. The grudge between Elena and Cecilia over Elena letting her listen to her and Shiloh's lovemaking hadn't been resolved yet, so she certainly wouldn't take the initiative to join forces.

Since that's the case, we should find a way to get the other party to bring it up on their own initiative.

Cecilia rested her chin on Yu Run's, deep in thought. Elena was still unaware of Shiloh's latest physical condition, and this woman, having kept it all bottled up for so many days, was definitely thinking of having it all to herself.

However, those who try to eat alone will eventually die from overeating. When Elena can't take it anymore, she will naturally seek cooperation.

When the time comes... I'll definitely teach that guy Shilo a lesson!

As Cecilia thought this, an indomitable fighting spirit shone in her blue eyes.

We definitely can't win if we fight directly, so we have to perform some rituals before the actual battle to weaken Silo's condition.

For example, covering feet with hands, keeping mouth shut with hands, and team building activities involving two peaks...

Once the effects of the various rituals have subsided, the final move, the Pink Garden, will surely be enough to cut Cricket Shilo down by the waist!

Howl—!

While Cecilia was devising her battle plan, the carriage had already entered Maple Leaf Territory and soon returned to the lord's mansion, which she had left several days earlier.

"Phew~ I'm finally home."

Xi Luo jumped out of the carriage, stretched out a big yawn, and let out a sigh.

Although it was only a few days, it felt like months had passed.

However, before he could even take a proper look at the building he hadn't seen in so long, a figure in dark purple, accompanied by a fragrant breeze, pounced on him forcefully.

The soft little pomelo bumped against Xiluo's chest, turning into a pomelo pancake. Xiluo subconsciously tightened his arms around the waist and buttocks of the beauty in his arms, and his heartbeat quickened slightly.

As they gently inhaled each other's familiar scents, they were both immersed in the tranquil atmosphere.

Cecilia watched this scene quietly without making a sound.

Although the journey was quite dangerous, she also had an unforgettable memory with Shiloh.

Elena, who stayed behind to look after the house during this time, truly suffered the pangs of lovesickness.

Anyway, there's still plenty of time, so let her have it a little longer...

creak-

Her pearly teeth, still warm and moist, bit down on Xiluo's neck, leaving a shallow tooth mark.

"You're back so late."

Shiloh kissed Elena's cheek, stroked her long, flowing, dark purple hair, and whispered, "Sorry to keep you waiting."

"Hmph, no sincerity."

"Huh? So, how do you know if someone is sincere?"

Upon hearing this, Elena reached behind her back, grasped Shiloh's large hand, pulled it to her front, and then placed it on her lower abdomen.

Immediately afterwards, Elena had Shiloh raise his palm, gestured the gap between his palm and lower abdomen, then looked up at his dark eyes and said, "This fullness is about right."

Silo raised an eyebrow, looked at the seemingly reckless Elena, and asked, "Are you sure?"

"Oh."

Elena sneered, then grabbed Shiloh's hand and walked straight into the mansion.

"Elbow, come inside with me."

Watching the two figures disappear into the distance, Cecilia shook her head, not even for a moment feeling sorry for Elena, who had no idea what would happen next. She then turned to Aria and smiled, "Miss Aria, please choose a room."

"Of course, after you choose your preferred room, I will also give you a key to Shiloh's room."

"Huh? Ah... okay, thank you."

Arya nodded, feeling a little excited after seeing Shiro being affectionate with other women, despite the sour feeling she had just experienced.

After all, once she chose the room, this would be her second home.

Besides her lover, Shiloh, she also gets to make new friends... well, they should be considered family by now, right?

In the Wayne family, one's social life is strictly controlled by the family. There are almost no friends that one truly wants to make; they are all just for the sake of maintaining interests.

“Um, Miss Cecilia, little Irene—may I call you that?”

Irene blinked, looked at Aria who looked a little flustered, and gave her a sweet smile, saying, "Yes, that's fine, Sister Aria."

"Um~! Please continue to guide me in the future!"

Chirp...

flutter--

Squeak squeak—

The sounds of sticky, scalding hot water and the repeated squeezing of the bed echoed in the room. During the days that Shiloh was away, Elena truly felt what it meant for "each day to feel like a year."

During the day, Elena could immerse herself in her work at Maple Nest to numb herself, but once midnight came, Elena would wake up from her dreams from time to time, and then feel cold and lonely, and... a deep longing for Shiro.

Elena herself did not expect that just being away from him for a short while would almost overwhelm her with loneliness.

After their passionate kiss, Elena didn't bother to clean up her messy lips; instead, she pressed her face against Shiloh's chest, quietly listening to his heartbeat.

"Is everything going smoothly?"

"Yes, it went smoothly."

After stroking Elena's dark purple hair a couple of times, Shiloh leaned close to her ear, nibbled on her delicate earlobe, and whispered, "I missed you so much."

Upon hearing this, Elena's body stiffened for a moment, then slowly relaxed.

"Hmph... With so many women around, he still thinks of me in his spare time. He truly lives up to his title as master."

Elena deliberately emphasized her tone, making it sound slightly sarcastic.

But Shiloh knew that this was just her feeling awkward and embarrassed.

"I'm very possessive, and now that I've put you in my heart, I'll never let you leave~"

Sylvie turned over and looked at Elena, whose beautiful hair was cascading down her back, and smiled earnestly.

Elena pursed her lips, unable to hide the blush on her pretty face, but she maintained a cold expression and slowly turned her head away.

Chapter 86: The fall of the health room: Elena of Kaolinhua! (2-in-1)

Elena could sense the intense possessiveness that Shiloh exuded towards her.

In her past interactions with noblewomen and young ladies, Elena had heard many complaints about her arranged marriage partners.

Although the husbands may treat them quite well after marriage, and most of them rarely have other women outside, they are basically monogamous.

However, many noblewomen and young ladies remained dissatisfied. Not to mention men who were not particularly attractive in appearance or temperament, even those who were objectively considered attractive did not elicit a good attitude from them.

Elena was somewhat curious about this phenomenon, so she asked about it at a women's tea party she had attended in the past.

Of course, the answer she received struck Elena as somewhat absurd.

"Lack of romance"

"He had no romantic love for me, only possessiveness and sex."

Elena always found it hard to understand such arguments, because in her view, liking someone purely in one's mind is absolutely incomplete.

When one's heart and soul are devoted to one person, that is the most perfect state of love.

Of course, Elena also understood the source of these ladies' ideas.

Most of them lack the aptitude to cultivate extraordinary powers. Born into noble families, their greatest value lies in being used for marriage alliances.

After getting married, they couldn't go out and about freely, so they could only pass the time by reading various books or attending tea parties.

Among them, romantic stories about love, as well as books written by some famous philosophers of the empire discussing the "essence of love," were the most popular.

Elena couldn't understand how someone could be considered to "like" their partner if they couldn't even feel physical possessiveness or any kind of impulse towards them.

If it's not even liking, then how can it be love?

To be honest, even though Elena is very confident in her charm, she still feels anxious and insecure after Shiloh has been away from her for so many days.

After all, there are just too many beautiful creatures in this world. With a lustful nature like Shiloh, who knows what new temptations he might encounter on this trip, and then forget about her...

Whenever Elena thought of this possibility, she felt a wave of panic... She couldn't imagine the scene of Shiloh gradually becoming indifferent to her and then abandoning her... It was hell.

Unlike Cecilia, Elena did not think she was inferior to Cecilia in terms of figure and appearance, but the essence of this world still lies in the cultivation of extraordinary power.

After reaching the "Stairway to the Stars," one's level of life will undergo a transformation beyond the mundane, and lifespan will be greatly increased.

Elena never thought that Shiro's physical problems would last forever, and just as she thought, he has now solved his physical problems and become a [Silver Mist Step] like herself.

Therefore, Elena became even more frightened.

She wasn't sure if she could overcome the major hurdle of the [Stage of Stars] since her extraordinary talent wasn't particularly good.

If you don't take this step, no matter how beautiful you are now, you will eventually grow old.

By then, will the still incomparably handsome Shiro still be interested in him?

Elena tried hard to stop thinking about it, repeatedly telling herself to focus on the present... But once she tasted the sweetness of love, how could she willingly give it up?

In particular, Elena could sense that Shiloh liked her, and not just physically, but also as a person, and as "Elena".

Realizing this, Elena's panic intensified.

"I don't think I said anything particularly touching, did I?"

Shiloh bent down, bent his knuckles, and tenderly wiped away the glistening tears that had slid down Elena's cheeks, whispering.

Upon hearing Shiro's words, Elena was startled, only then realizing how out of control she had become.

She tried to turn her head away to hide her sad expression, but Shiloh wouldn't let her. He grabbed Elena's chin, turned her face to face, and forced her to look at him. He asked, "What happened? We're lovers. We have to face any difficulties together."

Upon hearing this, Elena's gaze, which she had been about to look away from, froze, and her heart skipped a beat.

Yes, lovers.

He was never the kind of nobleman who would abandon his wife and daughters; he was different from others.

Didn't I already know that?

A thin mist of tears veiled her amethyst-like eyes. Elena bit her lip, her delicate nose slightly congested, and she let out a hoarse whisper: "Actually, I..."
