Chapter 4220 Jialina's Reminder
Even after everything that had happened, Xia De still felt embarrassed being looked at like that by Wei Ge.
"Wei Ge, if you keep doing this, I'm leaving now."
Xia De said, "But now that Vigo is in, we absolutely won't let him leave."
"He can't even take a look? What a stingy man."
"I can't believe my courage," Vige said, grabbing Xia De's wrist and kissing him. The direct contact while bathing seemed to ignite a fire in their hearts; the water rippled, and even Vige's skin turned pink.
"No, not until you're completely better."
Shad still had his senses; after the kiss ended, he tried to push Vige away, but the witch had already coiled around him like a water snake.
"It's okay, we can play some other games."
As she spoke, she did what Sylvie had done in Coldwater Harbor. Viggo smiled, watching the change in Shad's expression, then asked softly:
Don't you like it?
"This"
She looked into Xia De's eyes and smiled, then released his hand, shifted her position, and wrapped her arms around his neck again. The water rippled rhythmically with Wei Ge's movements, and the petals floating on the surface would occasionally touch them but quickly drift away with the current.
"Why is Galina so lucky?"
She hummed and complained softly, and Shad could only go along with her, while also being careful not to let anything go wrong. The perfect qualities of witches were even more evident in Vigo; she was truly perfect, almost transcending the realm of humanity.
While Viggo's figure might not appear as impressive as Garina's or the others, she was actually far superior to girls like Adelina and Emilia. Since things had come to this, Shad didn't bother with any more pretense of refusal. He offered to verify and taste it, and after trying it, gave it high praise.
And Wei Ge, suppressing her shyness, finally tasted it.
She acted even more impulsively than when she used her magical blood-draining healing technique. For a moment, Shad thought it was Megan and Audrey, not her, who were trying to swim underwater.
"I never expected they ate so well before. Am I a weirdo?"
These were the words Wei Ge spoke after brushing her teeth and rinsing her mouth, as she nestled in Xia De's arms in the bathtub. Even if she acted boldly, she was still a woman who had received proper ladylike education, and now, recalling her behavior just now, Wei Ge felt her cheeks burning again.
Shade gently comforted her, without saying anything like "the other witches went even further." So Viggo started acting coquettishly towards Shade again, whispering sweet nothings. Once she had rested, she, like the greedy Mia, wanted to do it again.
A few girls, including Miss Rowling, knew that Viggo had gone to a room on the first floor wearing only a bathrobe. This "few" naturally included Adelina and Eve.
The little princess was already used to this kind of thing. In fact, after getting to know her future teacher's personality recently, she guessed that this day would come sooner or later. She even admired Vige for being so decisive and bold, seizing the opportunity of the rain to take the initiative, which was in line with her impression of witches.
As for the tall girl, her feelings were much more complicated.
You seem a little distracted.
In Viggo's private study, Adelina, who was finishing her homework, suddenly spoke to Eve. Eve, looking at the nonsensical things she had written on the paper, put down her pen:
"I feel a tightness in my chest."
Adelina understands this feeling very well:
"That's normal. But once you've made some bold attempts in the future, you'll understand that all the waiting was worthwhile."
Eve then asked curiously:
"Adelina, you and Shad..."
The little princess immediately showed a proud expression. Although her progress couldn't keep up with the witches, it was still much faster than these innocent girls.
"We can't talk about this here. We can discuss it privately after we rest tonight. By the way, do you like reading? I have some very interesting books that might be helpful to you."
The evening sun soon appeared in the gloomy sky, and then quickly set, but the door to a certain room on the first floor remained closed.
Having tasted the pleasure, Wei Ge didn't want Xia De to leave. Xia De, seeing that he and Wei Ge had done such an excessive thing, couldn't leave immediately either. As a result, it was already dinner time and the two of them hadn't finished showering.
Viggo didn't actually mind having dinner with Xia De in the bathtub, but just before she remembered it was dinner time, the door to her room was opened again.
Wei Ge was still somewhat intoxicated and didn't pay any attention to the sound. It wasn't until the figure reached the edge of the bath and looked down at her that she realized someone had come.
"ah!"
"Why are you so surprised? Shouldn't I be the one who's surprised now?"
Galina asked with a stern face, and Vigo immediately shrank her body below the surface of the water, leaving only her head above water. Shad asked in surprise:
"Galina? What happened to Tobesk?"
"No, not at all. I was just at the Yordle Palace, waiting for your old boss to report on the unrest in the Velendale direction. There was something going on in the council, so I came all the way from your house to inform Vigo. I only noticed when I got to St. Teresa's Square that you weren't home, Shad."
Jialina looked at Wei Ge with disdain, as if she were looking at a mouse that had stolen a dessert:
"Vige, the Speaker is coming to your place at 8 PM tonight, which is a little over an hour away. She has already left you a note in the council. After I met with the head of MI6, I met with Sylvia in the council to inquire about the situation in Velendale, and Sylvia told me that she saw the note."
Be prepared, the Speaker is here to inquire about the [Furniture Guild].
"I see."
Wei Ge's voice was somewhat muffled; her mouth was now even submerged below the surface of the water.
"What happened in Velendell? Is it related to Sylvia and Margaret?"
Shade asked again, and Galina shook her head:
“Margaret is preparing to leave for the front lines from Willendal, and Sylvia will go with her. Remember to go to Sylvia’s tower tomorrow morning to say goodbye to them.”
The matter was none of their concern; Sylvia didn't even know the specifics. She had only heard that some important items had been lost from the capital. Perhaps it was the king's seal, perhaps the crown—who knew? Anlos's report wasn't very clear either, but 'Lion Ryan' had mobilized the royal guard to assist the Gray Gloves' agents in the investigation, and there were even rumors that they might seal off Velendale for a certain period—this was probably false. So, perhaps it was intelligence related to frontline deployments.”
She looked at Xia De again:
"The Speaker is coming. If you don't want to see her, come with me."
"Okay, we're almost done with things here."
"Jalina, you go out first, we need to change our clothes."
Vige whispered, and Jialina smiled:
“I’ve seen far more than you have, and besides, it should be saying, ‘Shad needs to change clothes, Viggo, please leave.’”
"This is my home."
Viggo whispered a reminder, then changed her own clothes while watching Galina help Shad get dressed. Seeing Galina straightening Shad's collar, she found it hard to believe that the usually arrogant duchess could be so considerate.
"Shad, remember to come see me tomorrow too~"
Seeing that Xia De was about to take Jia Lina's hand and leave after throwing away the crystal shoe, Wei Ge said reluctantly.
"Aren't you satisfied today? Viggo, judging from your expression, it's as if I forcibly took Xia De away. If I remember correctly, I was the one who came first."
"I'll let Shad and Viggo say goodbye properly," said Jialina, "but I'll still let them say goodbye properly." Viggo was naturally very reluctant to part; she had even been planning to have Shad stay overnight. However, it wasn't Jialina's fault. After reluctantly leaving Shad's embrace, Viggo thanked Jialina sincerely, but Jialina waved her hand to indicate that it was nothing.
After Shad and Galina returned home, the Duchess smiled and said:
"So, Shade, how does Viggo taste?"
"Jalina, it's one thing for you to tease Vige, but please don't tease me."
"Hmph~ I'm just a little unhappy, why is she so fast?"
She took Xia De's arm and they walked together towards the stairwell to the third floor:
“Wei Ge asked you to use your precious rest time to go on a date with her. This is something that should only happen once. You can’t always give in to her.”
"Yes, yes, and besides, I don't think there will be any more peaceful times like this in the future."
"Is there something new happening in Arcadia?"
"Not yet. But since we took over the Leatherworks Guild last Saturday, nothing has happened in this city for most of the week. I have a feeling that those people who are hiding in the shadows waiting for an opportunity will probably give me something to do again soon."
As Shad spoke, he recalled what had happened to Dorothy and Recia on the night of the Red Butterfly Festival:
"Besides, even if nothing else happens, I can't just passively wait for things to come to me. After I see Sylvia and Margaret tomorrow morning, if there's nothing else going on in Arcadia, I plan to go see Mr. Bernhardt and temporarily join forces with the vampires."
Once Margaret has finished inspecting the front lines and arrived in Arcadia, I can begin investigating the Great Sparrow.
"Who?"
Galina blinked, then remembered what the "bird" was:
"You're looking for him to confirm the exact relationship between your uncle and Karas Mountain. If you find him, great, but what if he's already passed away for some reason? That's not a low-probability event; after all, being a secret agent isn't a profession that makes it easy to live a long life."
