"Sister Chris, have you come to take me home?" he asked expectantly.

"Yes."

And so, Miss Chris now had someone who knew better how to take care of her.

Whenever Miss Chris needed something, without her even asking, the boy named Wayne would fetch it for her as if by telepathy.

No matter what silly things Miss Chris wanted to do, the child would accompany her without hesitation.

Even he himself probably couldn't match Chris's compatibility as well as he could.

"Miss Chris's magic is very weak..."

One day, I overheard my mother talking to my father with great concern.

There has always been a lot of concern about who will be the future captain of that large ship.

However, the father was not worried; on the contrary, he was very confident.

"Isn't there also Young Master Wayne? His magical talent is exceptionally outstanding, and he will surely be able to protect the family's interests well in the future."

There was something to be relieved about.

"Eh? That's just a rumor. Wayne isn't a bastard. He's from a branch family in a remote area," Lady Chris explained to her privately.

"Ok?"

A very strange feeling welled up inside me.

There are many children from remote families who have separated from their parents, and some of them have very high magical talent.

But in the history of the kingdom, no child has ever risen so high, from a remote, impoverished area to the heart of the nation, to become the heir to the most prestigious ducal family—

Only one.

If it weren't for blood ties, why would Duke Elliott be so sure that his son would obey him when he grew up?

These worries gradually dissipated as he spent more time with Wayne.

I see……

The Duke of Elliott was truly farsighted.

As soon as you see the loving look in his eyes for Chris, you understand everything.

Will I be able to attend Lady Chris's wedding and Wayne's wedding someday?

In that case, it won't be a problem that Lady Chris has low magic power.

The future dukedom will naturally fall to Wayne. And then it will be passed on to his child with Miss Chris.

Wayne will definitely be able to take good care of Miss Chris.

Just like the things he used to do every day.

Actually, if it weren't for Miss Chris already being with him, I might have developed feelings for the gentle Wayne.

Heh... After all, it was my own selection that made me the number one "boy I most want to kiss".

But all of this beauty was ruined by a despicable thief!

That person dared to take advantage of Lady Chris's momentary lapse in attention and seduce the innocent and naive Wayne, causing him to do such an unforgivable thing!

Despite being a young lady from an opposing faction to the Winchester family, she dares to harass Wayne, as if she wants to—

To take her away from Lady Chris?!

Absolutely unforgivable.

With his encouragement, Lady Chris finally decided to take the initiative.

And I have already made full preparations.

Subsequently, the two secretly planned a weekend hot spring trip.

Two days and one night, plenty of time.

"Eve, I'm leaving this to you."

“I’ve already tested Tasia, and she hasn’t developed any particular feelings for Wayne yet, which is for the best.”

Miss Chris instructed.

"Tasia is also a good friend of mine, and she doesn't know anything about this yet. Let's invite her over to play too, just so she can relax a bit."

"I want to make Wayne realize the cruelty of reality... so that he will never dare to fall in love with anyone else again."

Miss Chris was unusually positive, with bright eyes and full of energy.

???

...Wait, the person I wanted to remind you of isn't this one.

Oh well, this is fine too.

While that person doesn't have the guts to go public, we might just stumble upon the perfect opportunity.

"Wow, this place is so beautiful..."

Tasia, who was invited, was completely unaware of the plan behind it and seemed very innocent and clueless.

Although they are just commoners, since they have gained Lady Chris's approval as friends, then they are also my friends.

Eve greeted her warmly.

"If you have the chance, come visit us sometime!"

"Thank you so much, Chris and Eve! If there's anything we need to prepare, please let me help you too!" Tasia offered.

Upon hearing this, Eve revealed a peculiar smile.

"It would be even better if Tasia could cooperate."

Chapter 135 My dual-female-lead storyline is a success?!

Wayne stretched his hand out the window, feeling the wind brushing against his fingers.

Although equestrianism was an essential part of their education, nobles generally used carriages for their daily travels.

After all, one should maintain an elegant demeanor.

Chris, on the other side, was also leaning against the other car window, looking at the scenery outside.

Seeing that she looked bored, Wayne struck up a conversation: "Chris, why do you suddenly want to go to the hot springs?"

Since setting off, the two of them had been silently enjoying the breeze almost the entire way.

"Since Eve invited me, I'll go~ Soaking in a hot spring once in a while is good for beauty and skin care."

She said casually, "Besides, I'd really like to go out and have fun with Tasia too."

...So he really wants to get along well with the original female lead.

Since Chris successfully persuaded Tasia's bakery to also sell milk tea, Tasia's business has improved significantly, and the shop has become quite well-known in the area.

With Tasia herself, who is currently studying at Qingxi Academy, in charge, and with the secret protection provided by the Winche family, it's natural that no fools would come knocking on their door to cause trouble.

For this, Tasia was extremely grateful to their family.

Even Wayne, who occasionally passes by the front desk of the library, is often greeted with a sweet smile and thanks.

With such a bright and kind smile, she truly deserves to be the female lead, Miss Tasia.

Just looking at her is pleasing to the eye, and it can even improve one's mood.

Of course, Tasia would always take the opportunity to greet Chris during their conversations.

"How is Chris doing lately?"

"Our family has developed a new drink; she can come and take a look if she has time."

In the end, out of every ten sentences he and she exchanged, at least five of them were related to Chris.

"By the way, counting from the day she made milk tea, did Chris ever see Tasia again?" Wayne asked, seemingly casually.

"Yes, I have."

Ok?

Upon hearing her answer, Wayne's eyes widened.

How come I didn't know?

"We also went to play in the water at Qingxi Lake in the suburbs."

Wayne: ? ? ?

"When did you all go out to play without me?" he asked in astonishment.

It was as if they couldn't believe it.

Chris seemed a little confused as to why he would ask such a question, and gave him a puzzled look.

"...Why should I tell you?"

Wayne was speechless for a moment.

After a long pause, he stammered, "Of course, it's to make things easier for your safety. The security situation in the capital hasn't been very good lately, so please don't go out alone."

Chris rolled her eyes at him, annoyed.

……

The carriage arrived at a hot spring villa, where Eve and Tasia were already waiting at the entrance to greet them.

Upon seeing Chris, Tasia, bathed in sunlight, instantly broke into an extremely dazzling smile.

Even Wayne, sitting in the carriage, was slightly mesmerized by that pure and untainted smile.

Those eyes, like a clear pool, were filled with Chris's image.

"Chris, you must be tired from the journey." She came over and reached out her hand to help Chris down from the carriage.

Wearing a straw hat, Chris gently lifted her skirt with one hand and used the other hand to help her jump down from the carriage.

The hem of her skirt flashed past Wayne's eyes.

Wayne sat blankly in the carriage, feeling that something was off about the atmosphere.

After walking several steps hand in hand, Tasia suddenly remembered that there was someone else there, and turned around to ask, "Wayne, aren't you getting off the carriage?"

"……oh oh."

He somewhat awkwardly straightened the wrinkled corners of his clothes, picked up his luggage, and jumped off the carriage.

The coachman led the weary horse away, and now it would be well taken care of.

The newly arrived group, led by Eve, first settled their luggage.

Wayne followed behind Chris and Tasia, constantly looking around the hot spring villa.

It looks like a lot of money was invested in its construction. Wayne and Chris had been to other hot springs before, but none of them were as cleverly designed as this one.

“I also participated in the construction of this place,” said Eve, who was walking at the front.

"Wow~ That's amazing." Tasia clapped her hands with admiration.

Chris rested a finger on her chin. "Let me guess, the green plants and flowers placed at the entrance must have been arranged according to Eve's preferences, right?"

"That's right! And the layout of the rooms inside too~"

Eve pulled her up and eagerly led her upstairs.

"Wait a minute, don't run so fast." Chris pressed down on her straw hat.

Tasia kept urging, "Hurry up, hurry up! It's great inside!"

Wayne, dragging two suitcases, was left behind, lagging behind.

Why do I feel like I can't get a word in edgewise?

After glancing at the servants who bowed to them from afar and then silently retreated, Wayne sighed.

Then I followed behind them and slowly strolled up.

“This is the girls’ dormitory!” Eve said, pointing to a very luxurious room.
