"elder brother!"

With a shout, Xilin rushed out of the portal, as if she couldn't wait to throw herself into her brother's warm arms.

However, just when she was about to get what she wanted, a slender hand appeared in front of her, blocking her way.

Xilin raised her head in dissatisfaction and looked at the owner of that hand - Kiana☆.

Her brows slightly wrinkled, a trace of displeasure flashed in her eyes, and she shouted coquettishly:

"Kiana☆, why are you stopping me?"

Kiana looked at Xilin expressionlessly and said calmly:

"Everyone is watching us, please be aware of the situation."

After hearing what Kiana☆ said, Xilin did not restrain herself. Instead, she put her hands on her hips, puffed out her chest, glanced at the people around her, and said:

"So what? I do whatever I want, and I don't see who dares to object☆!"

However, the moment her eyes met Cecilia's, her expression suddenly changed.

The original arrogance disappeared without a trace in an instant, and was replaced by a look of astonishment and dullness.

When Cecilia saw Xilin, she was also stunned for a moment, but she quickly came to her senses. Considering that she could be resurrected, Xilin's resurrection did not seem to be something difficult to understand.

Then, Cecilia raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a gentle smile, waved gently at Xilin, and said softly:

"Xilin~"

However, after hearing this call, Xilin did not show any joy. Instead, she crossed her arms, turned her head away proudly, and said coldly:

"You impudent human, who told you to call me that?"

Seeing this, Kiana☆ on the side quickly reminded:

"You should call her mom."

When Xilin heard this, she was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and she retorted excitedly:

"I don't want it!"

Fu Ming shook his head helplessly and interrupted:

"I'm sorry to have embarrassed my mother-in-law. Xilin is a little bit arrogant and not very good at expressing her emotions. In fact, deep down in her heart..."

Before Fu Ming could finish his words, Cecilia chuckled and interrupted him, saying:

"I know."

Her voice was soft but firm, and she seemed to understand Xilin better than anyone else present.

Hearing Cecilia's words, Xilin's eyes flashed with an imperceptible light, but she quickly regained her composure and muttered in a hard voice:

"Humph, self-righteous woman."

Despite what she said, Xilin sat next to Cecilia, leaning slightly towards her, as if enjoying the scent emanating from Cecilia.

Xilin looked at the extra food in the bowl, put it in her mouth, savored it carefully, and said with satisfaction:

"Are you so eager to show your loyalty? Human☆, well, it's delicious."

It wasn't long before Xilin was completely immersed in the light of Cecilia's maternal love, and seemed to have forgotten everything around her.

Her face was filled with a happy smile, which was a kind of satisfaction and happiness from the heart. Occasionally, she would utter a few proud words that made people feel cute.

After a while, seeing Cecilia was about to pick up some food for her again, Xilin quickly waved her hands and pouted cutely:

"Human, I already have enough food in my bowl☆."

"......"

Finally, Xilin even took a piece of food and handed it to Cecilia, saying proudly:

"I can't eat anymore. You try it too. It's really delicious."

Everyone watching this scene smiled happily.

Theresa even sighed:

"As expected of Cecilia, she defeated the Second Herrscher so easily."

However, Cheng Lixue was not as relaxed as the others. She felt extremely heavy in her heart and looked at Xilin from time to time, full of anxiety and vigilance.

"Master, is it really okay for the Second Herrscher to be here?" Cheng Lixue finally couldn't help but ask.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Shi placed a hand on Cheng Lixue's shoulder, smiled slightly, and answered confidently:

"With me here, if she dares to cause trouble, I will make sure she has no chance to return. After all, I am very strong."

Fu Hua, who was standing by, nodded while holding the cup, and agreed:

"Well, Xiaozhi is very strong."

At this moment, everyone started cheering, raising their cups and shouting:

"cheers!"

Cheers rose one after another, echoing throughout the room, and the atmosphere was warm and cheerful.

Until late at night, the noisy room gradually quieted down, and everyone went back to their rooms to rest with a slightly drunk smile.

Kallen and Sakura walked hand in hand slowly towards the door of the room. Kallen turned to look at Otto who was standing there, smiled and waved, saying:

"Otto, I'm going to rest at Sakura's place. See you tomorrow."

Otto responded with a smile, waved his hand, and said softly:

"Okay...see you tomorrow."

Just as Kallen and Sakura were about to leave, Cecilia also walked up to Celine, gently held her shoulders, and asked softly:

"Xilin, do you want to sleep with your mother tonight? Just like the dream I had that time..."

Xilin's face turned slightly red. She turned her head away proudly and muttered:

"I don't want to! That was just an accident!"

However, although there was a hint of stubbornness in Xilin's words, her eyes unconsciously revealed a hint of expectation.

Cecilia naturally did not miss this subtle change. She smiled faintly, then sighed softly and said with a little disappointment:

"All right......"

Just as Cecilia turned around and prepared to leave, Xilin suddenly bit her lip, as if she had made some kind of decision.

She quickly caught up with Cecilia, still saying proudly:

"Since you want to sleep with me so much, I'll agree to it this time, but it won't happen again☆."

After saying that, Xilin followed Cecilia and walked towards the room prepared by Theresa.

Fu Ming looked at Xilin's disappearing back and said with emotion:

"Why do I feel like my sister was abducted by my mother-in-law?"

Xiaozhi responded disapprovingly:

"You should worry about yourself first. Are you full?"

Fu Ming touched his stomach, burped contentedly, and then replied:

"I'm full, burp~"

He then asked doubtfully:

"Why are you asking that?"

Xiaozhi didn't even think about it and answered casually:

"Of course it's because you have enough food to have the energy to work!"

Before she finished her words, she suddenly grabbed Fu Ming's hand and flew out like lightning.

This sudden scene left Kiana completely unable to react.

She watched helplessly as Xiao Shi and Fu Ming rushed away like a rocket. Her face suddenly became extremely gloomy. She stamped her feet in anger, like a cat with its fur standing on end, and shouted:

"Herder of Consciousness, stop right there! Give Ah Ming back to me!"

However, Xiaozhi ignored Kiana☆'s calls and disappeared in the distance in the blink of an eye.

Otto walked in front of Kiana☆. In his hand was a hat that Fu Ming had given him before.

Otto handed the hat to Kiana☆, with a faint smile on his face, and said:

"Please return the hat that Mr. Fu Ming left with me. Thank you."

Kiana☆ looked at the hat in Otto's hand, and the hat seemed particularly dazzling in her eyes.

Looking at his half-smiley expression again, a surge of anger suddenly rose in my heart, and I gritted my teeth and said:

"Are you laughing at me?"

Otto seemed to have expected Kiana☆ to have such a reaction. He shook his head and said calmly:

"No, no, how could I laugh at you? I just simply want to return the things that Mr. Fu Ming left with me. That's all.

But, sadly, he has passed away, so I will have to give the hat to his wife.”

Otto's words left Kiana speechless for a moment. She didn't expect Otto to answer like this, but she still rejected it:

"Leave this hat with you, Bishop Otto. It suits you very well."

Otto: "..."

On the other side, Alicia watched everyone leave together, her eyes turned and her gaze finally fell on Mei☆.

The corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a sly smile, and she said in a delicate voice:

"Hello Mei~ I don't seem to have a place to rest, how about I go to your place and sleep for a night~"

Mei☆ retracted her gaze from the direction where Fu Ming left, looked at Alicia, nodded, and answered readily:

"it is good."

?——

Lying in bed, Xilin tossed and turned but couldn't fall asleep, her mind full of Cecilia's gentle smile and meticulous care.

She secretly glanced at Cecilia who was sleeping next to her. The moonlight shone through the window onto Cecilia's face, making her look particularly soft.

Xilin's heartbeat quickened involuntarily. She hesitated for a moment, then gently moved towards Cecilia and rested her head on Cecilia's shoulder.

Cecilia seemed to notice Xilin's movements and hugged her gently. Xilin felt the warmth and soon fell into a sweet dream.

ps——Qiana has something to say:

Kiana: "Mom, you forgot to invite me!"
