Chapter 441 : Further Development... With Felyn
The girl in front of him instantly blushed and hurriedly bowed in apology, "I'm sorry, I didn't know he was your lover, I'm so sorry!"
"It's fine, it's fine. You can continue chatting later. I just have something I want to say to him right now." Daiyi held Felyn's arm and watched as the girls beside her hurriedly left.
When these girls saw Daiyi's face, they knew her status was extraordinary; that kind of cool and detached temperament couldn't be faked.
"Ah, she's gone," Daiyi said, shaking her head as she watched the figures of the several people leaving.
The deep green earrings reflecting the light flickered continuously, attracting all of Felyn's attention.
"I thought they would be as steadfast in their love for you as those other young ladies around you," Daiyi said, releasing Felyn's hand and standing in front of him, letting Felyn get a good look at her.
"Daiyi, what are you doing here?"
Daiyi smoothed out the wrinkles on Felyn's clothes and smiled faintly, "I've been home alone during this time, so of course I'd feel a bit lonely. That's why I wanted to come to the Royal Capital district to find my boyfriend."
Her dark green eyes reflected Felyn's image as she continued, "Although I won't stop you from messing around, you should at least have some self-control and leave some time for me. Otherwise, I'll get... an-gry... you know."
She imitated the pronunciation of a cute girl, speaking words that somewhat violated ethics and morals, one word at a time.
"No, I think you'd probably just become even happier, right?" Felyn felt this was just Daiyi teasing him again.
This time, Daiyi didn't retort as usual but just smiled at Felyn.
Silly Felyn.
"By the way, Felyn, how was your exam today?"
Felyn recalled today's exam: "The examiners from the empire were quite nice to me during the interview part, but the examiners from the churches were a bit strict. I don't know if my answers satisfied them. As for the written part, I think I did okay. Thanks to you and Adelina, all the questions were on topics I had reviewed."
"Felyn, next time you say thanks, just thanking me alone is enough. You don't need to add Miss Adelina."
As the two were talking, several middle-aged men in long robes with beards stopped by Daiyi's side for a moment.
They exchanged a few words and still came over to Daiyi.
"Excuse me, are you Miss Daiyi O'Lirian? I am Bartos, an executive of the Church of the Sun."
Felyn recognized this person as the examiner who had interviewed him this afternoon.
In the examination room, this man had a serious face and asked a series of tricky questions, even saying that this group of candidates was nothing special. He had scared several female students to tears.
By the way, why are candidates and examiners attending the same banquet? Aren't they afraid of people trying to bribe them at this time?
"Yes, I am." Daiyi put away the faint smile that only existed when she was with Felyn. When her gaze swept over Bartos, the executive took a slight step back.
"I saw from a distance that you have the shadow of Lord O'Lirian. Seeing you up close, it really is you. How has your father been recently..."
The Church of Truth was one of the three major churches, and at the same time, because all the sigils in the world were produced by the Church of Truth, the other churches all wanted to have a good relationship with the Church of Truth.
Bartos's gaze turned to Felyn on the side: "I think I saw this gentleman in the examination room this afternoon. Is he your...?"
"He is my lover, Felyn." Under everyone's gaze, Daiyi held Felyn's arm, pulling the two of them closer.
"I see, Mr. Felyn is also a man of great talent. Then I won't disturb you two. Please continue."
Bartos showed an expression of "I get it," nodded at Daiyi and Felyn, and left.
"Daiyi, is this okay?"
At such a close distance, Felyn once again smelled the scent of cedar on Daiyi.
"There's no other way. If I don't say we're lovers, what if he tells my father? Wouldn't our pretense of being lovers be exposed then?"
Daiyi had just said they were lovers in front of Bartos, actually wanting to use her own status to help Felyn.
But she was worried that Felyn would be too embarrassed to accept her kindness, so she didn't say it directly.
"By the way, do we still have to pretend to be lovers in front of your father?"
Felyn felt that it was no longer necessary to pretend, as Daiyi was already staying in the Sivisius Empire anyway.
Felyn's words reminded Daiyi.
The connection between her and Felyn was all built on the contract.
He... how does he see me?
Does he think I'm special, or does he treat me like his other clients, feeling that he needs to maintain an absolute distance from me?
Daiyi stole a glance at Felyn, seemingly wanting to find the answer to this question on his face.
But she couldn't tell.
Do I... do I exist in Felyn's heart?
When my contract with Felyn ends, will Felyn avoid me like he did with those other young ladies in the past, or will he continue to see me?
Daiyi knew Felyn's past very well. She knew that Felyn would reject all the clients he was currently serving.
If she wanted to have further development with Felyn, she had to end the contract first.
But after ending the contract, what if Felyn ignored her?
Further... development…
When this thought appeared in Daiyi's mind, her dark green eyes trembled.
She felt her cheeks start to get hot, and the ends of her hair seemed to curl up a bit.
Daiyi stole another glance at Felyn. When she found that Felyn was also looking at her, she quickly averted her gaze.
Further development... with Felyn...
---
In the corridor outside the palace, Lecia stood by the window, her arms crossed, looking at the scenery outside the window with some gloom.
"Sister, you seem a little unhappy?"
After looking around and seeing no guards, Lecia said to the person behind her, "Sylvain, don't you think Father is too biased towards Felyn?"
"Eh? Is he?"
Lecia sighed and looked back at her somewhat naive younger brother. "After knowing that Miss Daiyi was attending the banquet, Father invited the examiners who were in charge of the invigilation this afternoon. Isn't this clearly wanting to use Miss Daiyi's status to make the church examiners go easy on Felyn?"
The early admission exam did not limit the number of enrollments, so Felyn being given special treatment would not affect fairness.
But what angered Lecia was that, knowing that Felyn had a relationship with Dorothy, the king still gave Felyn special treatment.
He even had the Fourth Prince, Sylvain Sivisius, go with Dorothy to greet Felyn.
What on earth is Father thinking?
"Sylvain." Lecia really couldn't understand her father's thoughts. She turned her head and looked at her brother seriously, "Sister has been good to you, right? When you go to see Felyn later, remember to tell me what happens, okay?"
"I know, sister."
Lecia saw the long, pinkish-purple hair appear at the end of the corridor and knew that Dorothy was coming.
Before she left, she didn't forget to add a reminder, "Sylvain, don't tell Dorothy about this, understand?"
"I know, sister." Sylvain nodded and watched Lecia leave.
"Brother, what are you doing here?"
Although Dorothy's gentle voice came from behind him, it made Sylvain shiver involuntarily.
Sylvain was one of the few in the royal family who had not bullied Dorothy as a child.
For some reason, when Sylvain saw Dorothy's eyes, looking at her purple eyes, he felt a chill in his heart.
This sister of mine is terrifying!
Much more terrifying than Lecia!
"N-nothing, Sister Lecia was just talking to me for a while," he explained quickly, taking a step back.
"Oh? What did she say?" Dorothy took a step forward, staring into his eyes.
Sylvain remembered Lecia's parting words, telling him not to reveal what she had just said to Dorothy.
"Nothing much, Sister Lecia just asked me to tell her what happens later."
Are you kidding me? Dorothy's smile right now is too scary, I can't take it at all!
Sylvain only lasted for ten seconds before he sold Lecia out.
"Is that so?"
Dorothy tucked her hair behind her back and walked towards the banquet hall. Sylvain quickly followed by Dorothy's side, his steps even gradually synchronizing with hers.
"Brother, when you see Mr. Felyn later, be polite. Don't say anything you're not supposed to say."
Sylvain nodded quickly, his shadow dancing wildly on the ground.
Don't say anything I'm not supposed to say, only say polite things.
Miss Daiyi, the daughter of the Church of Truth, is also here today. Speaking of which, Father also mentioned that Miss Daiyi likes Felyn.
If I see that the two of them are already together today, wishing them a happy life together should be fine, right?
