Chapter 136 Abnormal study
"Oh--" Steele suddenly exclaimed softly and frowned slightly.
Lis, who was helping Steele prepare for bedtime, immediately asked with concern: "What's wrong? Madam? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Steele smiled and shook his head: "It's okay, it's just this little guy kicked me again."
Lis pursed her lips and smiled: "It seems that the young master's personality is much naughty than the master. He likes to make trouble in his stomach when he has nothing to do."
Steele shook his head gently: "It's not necessarily a boy. In fact, relatively speaking, I prefer my daughter."
"But my daughter cannot inherit the family business. The master now has a title, but also a family business as big as the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Madam, don't you want to have a son to inherit it?" Lis said.
Steele frowned and looked at Lisie, intending to refute her words, but knew that Lisie was right.
Although many women inherit the family business on the Siones continent, and even queens appear, traditionally speaking, there are still relatively high calls for boys to inherit the family business.
Otherwise, Prince Eric would not have had much higher approval ratings among the great nobles in the Kingdom of Lampari who valued tradition than Prince Sevini.
"It's okay, Xu Yi has always said that he likes girls more, and even if he is born with a daughter, he will definitely be very happy." Steele touched his belly and comforted himself.
Perhaps because of feeling the mother's caress, the child in his belly started to make a fuss again, which made Steele frown deeply.
"This little guy... is more than two months away, can't wait to come out?" Steele couldn't help laughing, thinking for a while, and simply stood up. "Forget it. Liss. Let's go and walk for a while so that he can calm down."
"Okay, let the young master take a walk." Lis smiled and helped Steele up and walked out the door.
After Xu Yi left, the huge Luoxing Manor seemed much deserted than usual because he lacked the male owner. After that, Linda was sent away by Steele, and Luoxing Manor became much more deserted. Now that it was late at night, even if Vivian and Teresa were added to the entire manor, there were only four people, so naturally it seemed extremely quiet.
However, Steele originally liked this quiet environment, and she didn't like the existence of outsiders very much, so she always disagreed with Xu Yi's idea of hiring some other servants.
Looking at Lis beside him, Steele thought to himself that although Lis was a female slave brought back by Xu Yi from the Principality of Stettin, Xu Yi never regarded her and Linda as slaves, and they both regarded her and Linda as family members like Vivian.
Now that everyone has been together for a long time, Steele has become accustomed to their existence and treats them as family members.
Thinking of Linda, Steele suddenly asked Lis, "Lis. This time I sent Linda over, but I kept you. Do you hate me in your heart?"
Lis had a smile on her face, but when she heard Steele's question, she was shocked, and changed to a look of shock on her face. She shook her head repeatedly and said, "Madam, why do I hate you? Don't get me wrong, I definitely don't! Really!"
Seeing Lis looking anxious, Steele smiled and patted her holding her hand, comforting her: "Don't be nervous, I don't mean that, I just want to ask you, are you a little dissatisfied with not serving Xu Yi with Linda this time? To be honest."
Seeing Steele's serious expression, Lis hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Well... I envy Linda. She can always serve her master and be with her side... Ah, no, madam, I don't have any opinions on serving you, I also like to be with you..."
"It's okay, you like to serve Xu Yi, that's right, after all, he is your master." Steele smiled.
"Well... Actually, I envy Linda, mainly... mainly because... the master is alone outside these days, and he is lonely at night, so Linda can accompany him..." Lis' pretty face turned slightly red, and she lowered her head and said softly.
Steele smiled slightly: "You don't have to be so envious. I don't know if Xu Yi can understand Linda's wishes and accept her."
Hearing this, Lis couldn't help but raise her head and smiled bitterly to Steele: "Madam... to be honest, don't be angry."
"Tell me, what's so angry about me?"
Lis paused and said, "Actually, I'm very surprised that the master is really slow in this regard. How did you stay with him...? Of course, you are the most beautiful woman I've ever met, but I don't think the master seems to care much about these things."
"You're right." Steele nodded. "Xu Yi, this wood, is really slow in this regard. I was able to be with him because we had a lot of contact at the beginning, so we knew him one step ahead of others. If it were fair competition now, Evita might have a greater chance."
"Director Evita?" Lis frowned and thought. "Madam, since you are worried about Dean Evita, why not let the master contact her less?"
"The more you deliberately restrict such things, the more likely it is to have a counterproductive effect. Moreover, Xu Yi and Avita are discussing normal work together. How can I restrict it?" Steele shook his head. "Xu Yi definitely doesn't like my stingy approach. I think the reason why I was liked by him at the beginning was that my personality should be the most important. So I always remind myself not to make him hate it."
Lis sighed: "Madam, it seems that you really love your master and care so much about his opinion."
"It seems like you don't care." Steele pinched Lis' face and felt the smoothness of fingers. Thinking that Lis and Linda were actually two or three years younger than her, she couldn't help but sigh: "Although I think I look pretty good, people will grow old after all. Xu Yi once said that what he cares most about is a person's personality, not his appearance. So I hope to continue to impress him with these. As for appearance, let me leave it to a girl like you and Linda to satisfy him."
Lis' pretty face turned red again, but she couldn't help but frown: "But the master never cared about our appearance and... and our body."
Steele smiled and said, "Don't worry, no matter how much he is, he is still a normal man after all, right? My belly child is very obvious evidence, right? Linda has been with him all the way. I think he will still be unable to help it. When he and Linda come back together, I will find an opportunity to let him get along with you alone. As for whether you can seize the opportunity then, it depends on yourself."
Liss immediately had a surprise on her face: "Really? Thank you so much for your wife!"
Seeing Lis's face full of joy, Steele shook his head gently.
Although Steele acts extremely generous on the surface, how could she not care about her husband being with other women at all?
But Steele knew better that with Xu Yi's current status, the temptations he faced were endless. No matter how strong his self-control was or how he was determined, he would never be able to hold on.
Instead of doing this, it is better to let go of these thoughts.
At least, if Lis, Linda and Xu Yi were together, Steele would not find it difficult to accept.
The two chatted about what happened to Xu Yi and Linda at this moment while wandering around the manor.
After walking for about ten minutes, I had already transferred Luoxing Manor for more than half and arrived near Xu Yi's study.
Seeing the door of the study room in front, Steele remembered that no matter how busy Xu Yi was in his work, he would return to Luoxing Manor at night and work in this study room for a while. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. After thinking about it, he signaled Lis to open the door of the study room and walked in.
The magic lamp illuminated the study, and Steele looked around and sat down behind the desk in the middle of the study.
Thinking of Xu Yi's usual way of sitting on this chair at night, Steele suddenly couldn't help but feel a strong longing for Xu Yi, and couldn't help but lie on the desk, trying to feel the warmth of Xu Yi when he was at home from the table.
However, just as he climbed onto the table, Steele frowned and a hint of surprise flashed across his face.
"Madam, what's wrong?" Lis asked hurriedly when she saw the strange look on Steele's face.
Steele waved his hand, but took his arm away, and even put his face on the desk with his face, and even moved it back and forth for a distance.
Seeing Steele's actions, Lis looked puzzled.
However, she knew very well that her wife would never do such boring things, so there must be a reason for it.
Steele pressed his face against the desk, as if he was in deep thought, thinking about something.
After a while, Steele raised his head and observed it carefully on the desk. He looked through the documents and books placed on the desk. He bent down with difficulty and observed the environment under the desk. At the same time, he opened the drawer of the desk and carefully checked it.
Lis was a little strange. Steele's series of actions were like a thief entering the study.
However, although this Luoxing Manor does not seem to have any guards and is lax in defense, the owner of the manor Xu Yi and the mistress Steele are both magicians of extremely high level. In addition, Steele's grandfather is a powerful magician, so there are actually many complex magic array traps around Luoxing Manor, and it is impossible for any thief to break in easily.
After checking the environment near the desk, Steele came to the bookcase against the wall on the other side of the study, and his eyes swept over and fell on a grid in the middle of the bookcase.
Steele did not open the window, but instead stretched out a finger and pressed it on it. The magic power flowed in his body and leaned towards the bookcase.
A moment later, a little light blue light lit up on the window.
At the beginning, this light blue light was still very stable, like a small lamp dotted on the window. However, when Steele continued to maintain the magic input for a period of time, the light blue light gradually began to become unstable, and finally flashed for a while and disappeared suddenly.
Steele opened the window and looked at the small magic circle connecting the gap in the window, and his pretty face became gloomy.
All the discoveries proved one thing, someone sneaked into the study.
However, who will this person... be? (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, novels are better, updated and faster!
