Before tonight, she had been fairly certain that Felyn liked her. But after everything that had happened, she hadn’t dared to consider it anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She feared things might go in the worst possible direction. She wanted to approach him, to find the right moment to talk—but Felyn, as if reading her mind, always managed to slip away at just the right time. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t find a chance to be alone with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before she knew it, the banquet was nearing its end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At Dorothy’s suggestion, the guests made their way toward the rooftop to watch the final act of Zervanie’s performance. Felyn deliberately stayed at the back of the group, not wanting to join the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately for him, Adelina had the same idea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time Felyn stepped out into the nearly empty banquet hall, he saw her waiting by the door, looking directly at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Adelina, aren’t you going?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I am… I was waiting for you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Felyn approached her, Adelina suddenly found herself unable to meet his eyes. Her words came out in a nervous stammer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is that so? Then let’s go.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn walked ahead, and Adelina quickly hurried to catch up, walking shoulder to shoulder with him. After a brief moment of hesitation, she slowly moved her arm toward his, letting her pinky finger brush against his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then her index finger gently touched the back of his hand—testing, reaching—trying to hold it. She thought that maybe, if she could just grasp his hand, it might calm her racing heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But tonight wasn’t like before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn subtly pulled his hand away, just slightly, just enough to leave hers suspended awkwardly in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adelina’s heart clenched at that tiny motion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She glanced sideways to peek at him, only to find that he was looking straight ahead, not sparing her a glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something felt off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She bit her lower lip and lowered her head, trying to hide the unease and panic creeping onto her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in that strange, stifling silence, the capital district was engulfed by a river of sky-blue light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The magical firework festival was a breathtakingly romantic sight. Lovers all across the capital had already found their ideal viewing spots, waiting for the perfect moment to whisper sweet nothings to each other as the fireworks bloomed in the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And those still single often used this opportunity to muster their courage and confess to someone they liked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other girls gathered on the rooftop shared the same thoughts. They gazed up at the darkened sky, wondering what sort of dreamy display would unfold before their eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And naturally, they also found themselves wishing Felyn were at their side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment they thought of him, their eyes instinctively began searching for him among the crowd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Felyn and Adelina had lagged behind, they stood near the back. In this romantic atmosphere, the other young ladies simply couldn’t bear to see Felyn alone with another girl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zervanie looked at Adelina’s face and sensed that she had something to say to Felyn. In a setting like this, what else could it be but a confession?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She seriously doubted Adelina had brought him here to explain the magical mechanics behind enchanted fireworks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zervanie itched to interrupt them. If Adelina succeeded in confessing, then all of Zervanie’s chances with Felyn would vanish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her heart urged her forward, but her feet wouldn't move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What role am I supposed to take on to stop Adelina’s confession? A friend? A former client? Or… someone secretly in love with him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She took a deep breath and walked toward a quiet corner of the rooftop garden. Sitting alone on a swing, she gently rocked back and forth, looking up at the distant night sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, she couldn’t do anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stopped watching them and decided to leave everything to fate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side, Dorothy had also noticed Adelina and Felyn alone together. Her internal alarm was blaring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My dear Felyn was with another girl again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adelina kept sneaking glances at Felyn’s face. There was no doubt something was going on between them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I can’t let Felyn and Adelina stay alone like this!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as she was about to rush over and drag Adelina away to watch fireworks with her, a hand gently grabbed her wrist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked up and saw the ever-cold-faced Viloti holding her arm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Miss Viloti?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The firework display is starting, Your Highness. We wouldn’t want you to miss it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“B-but…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Viloti’s gaze followed Dorothy’s line of sight, falling on the two figures in the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adelina had confided in her earlier about wanting to confess. Viloti hadn’t stopped her, because she believed Adelina would ultimately fail.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she didn’t mock her in her heart. She knew—it was going to hurt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All she could do now… was stop anyone from ruining Adelina’s final moment alone with Felyn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not far behind them, Daiyi leaned against the doorframe at the rooftop entrance, silently watching the awkward pair from behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had been observing since the moment Felyn moved his hand away from Adelina’s. Naturally, she understood Adelina’s intentions. She knew exactly what was coming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blue glow of the support lights reflected off Daiyi’s face, softening her divine features and giving her an almost human warmth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Adelina looked back right now, she might’ve thought the gods were smiling down upon her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This girl, who was about to become the Divine Child—the one closest to the gods—stood there quietly, lost in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why do all the girls around Felyn fall for him so easily?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Will I end up like them too? Falling for him, without even realizing it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Felyn just gave me a reason, maybe I wouldn’t have to go back to the Church of Truth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, every girl connected to Felyn had their attention focused on Adelina.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To them, the fireworks no longer mattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What mattered now was what Adelina was about to say—and how Felyn would respond.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, the night sky would be filled with brilliant explosions of light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn stared at the quiet sky, savoring the final moments of peace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had thought Adelina might bring up his trip to the capital district—something complicated, sure, but manageable. He could always stall and answer the next day, once she had already left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, seeing her flushed cheeks and trembling fingers, he realized her resolve ran far deeper than that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he wasn’t mistaken, Adelina was about to become the first client to confess to him during the middle of a contract.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And that… was something Felyn didn’t want.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Miss Adelina,” he said, deliberately adding formality to create distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m really looking forward to the fireworks show. I just want to find a quiet little corner… and enjoy it all by myself.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1192,"2026-06-09T04:36:14.214Z",1,"novelbin.me","6f8ac75bd4df6e8f34885c21eb0cfeb53b7e8cbc88355d84f2a1db155790f09f","shut-up-young-lady-obediently-hand-over-the-mone-chapter-208","shut-up-young-lady-obediently-hand-over-the-mone-chapter-206",727,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fshut-up-young-lady-obediently-hand-over-the-mone-cover.jpg"]
