Chapter 1538

~5 min read 829 words

The temperature in the room soared rapidly.

Jean had originally wanted this today, and it just so happened that Su Han came over to give a gift.

The two were of one mind.

Naturally, they could no longer hold back.

Standing outside the door, Noelle listened to the intense sounds from within, her face incredibly flushed.

She was a maid for the upper echelons of Mondstadt.

Now, she was even more of Jean's right-hand woman.

And for a period in Mondstadt, a maid was a servant who served the master, for when the mistress could no longer hold on,

or when she was aging and losing her looks,

the maid would have to step in to take the master's place.

And she was also waiting for this opportunity.

Because, Sister Jean had promised her that she would also have a chance.

If she were to just wait slowly,

a little girl like Noelle,

she didn't know how many years it would take to gain Su Han's intimacy.

Time passed minute by minute.

About two hours later,

the door opened.

Jean, with damp hair, smiled at her: "Come in... don't let me down today... the way of the knight cannot be realized by courage alone."

"Yes... Acting Grand Master Jean! But what about outside..."

"Don't worry, I will use the Den Den Mushi to send word to those people; not even a fly will be able to fly up here."

Facing Jean's words,

Noelle finally settled down.

She gathered her courage and walked inside.

The knights standing at the door soon received the signal from the Acting Grand Master.

There was an important meeting today.

No one was allowed to disturb them.

Nor could they let anyone else come up.

Not even Kaeya or Diluc.

Basically, once these words were out,

the two female knights guarding the door understood.

The visitor today must be the Pope.

The two smiled at each other.

Their eyes were full of worship.

If the Acting Grand Master was so busy and could still receive the Pope's favor, who would dare disturb them? They wouldn't allow it.

Since they were knights under her command,

naturally, they had to protect the beautiful Acting Grand Master.

Along with her happiness.

In the church,

Barbara is currently teaching the young deacons, even though she is now an expatriate moderator.

She often filmed things,

but occasionally she would return to teach the newcomers.

There were many who liked to join the church.

Priests were no longer just cheerleaders who could only sing and dance.

A true priest

was an existence capable of fighting bravely alongside the Knights.

Acting as a medic in battle,

and an important existence who would quickly clean up the battlefield after the fighting ended to prevent their own people from dying.

After the teaching session ended,

Barbara finally finished her work.

She took the towel handed to her by a subordinate and gently wiped her forehead.

The girl she once was

had now grown quite a bit.

Her original small curls

had also, under Barbara's care, slowly reached her waist.

However, for the sake of convenience,

this girl now often tied her hair into her sister's ponytail,

or perhaps a bun.

Under her silver attire,

she slowly developed an aura all her own.

"Lady Barbara, where to next?"

"I'm going to see my sister, and later we'll head to Falcon Coast... the work isn't finished yet."

"Yes."

The two sisters hadn't seen each other in a week.

Returning this time to handle work,

it was a good chance to see her sister briefly and have a meal.

She waved her subordinates away and headed straight for the Knights of Favonius.

However, upon arriving at the door,

she found the guards looking at her with strange expressions.

"May I ask what's wrong?"

"Uh... Acting Grand Master Jean said she isn't receiving guests for now... so Lady Barbara... you..."

"Not receiving guests?"

Barbara frowned, then suddenly realized.

Her face slowly turned red.

She looked up at Xifeier, only to see the other party nod slowly.

Confirming Barbara's guess.

"Alright, you keep watch... don't let anyone in..."

Barbara, who had originally wanted to retreat and leave,

suddenly thought that she hadn't chatted with her brother-in-law for half a month.

Even in the group chat,

it was only a few words

before he went off to busy himself with his own affairs.

Since that was the case, why not be brave?

Didn't Liyue have a saying?

Something about a sister-in-law, right... so if she wasn't brave, would she be as timid as before?

Her gaze gradually became firm.

Barbara walked inside with determination.

When her figure had completely disappeared,

the girl beside her said: "Is it okay? Xifeier..."

"This is a good thing... Lady Barbara is the Acting Grand Master's sister; instead of being conflicted and distressed, it's better to move forward bravely... what do you know... besides, longing for someone is also very painful..." ===== CHAPTER 1540 =====
