Elemental Light Mage
Chapter 20 Blood connection
Xi Yeming and the three of them followed the old housekeeper to a mansion. The old housekeeper first found out the secret code with the guard at the door, and then took the three people inside.
Perhaps because of the unfamiliar environment, Binet followed Xi Yeming and Cosette every step of the way.
Xi Yeming, who was walking in front, looked back at Binay, who was a little nervous. Perhaps remembering that he felt strange and helpless when he first arrived at Kilgore College, he grabbed Binay's still immature palm.
Xi Yeming said: "Cosette, grab my wrist and come with us."
Cosette was stunned for a moment when she heard this, then obediently grabbed the wrist of Xi Yeming's right hand with her left hand, and walked in sync with the father and daughter.
As if he felt that the end was right in front of him, Xi Yeming became more and more restrained, because he was the only one who knew his relationship with the second princess, and this secret was too heavy in his heart.
"The place ahead is where His Highness Xia is waiting. I will lead the three of you in."
The four of them came to a gate. The housekeeper opened the gate and led Xi Yeming and his party inside.
As soon as they walked into the room, they were greeted by a burst of comfortable light. Glass windows replaced the walls, giving them a panoramic view of the beautiful scenery outside the mansion. There was a table and a few chairs in the innermost position by the window, among which the second princess He sat on one of the wooden chairs and waited for the butler to come back.
When the second princess saw the housekeeper coming back, she stood up from her chair excitedly, but when she saw the other three faces, she became curious again.
The second princess asked: "Zel, who are these three?"
The butler replied respectfully: "It's the instructor I brought back to His Highness."
The second princess glanced across the three people, and finally landed on Xi Yeming. She couldn't help but said, "Why do I seem to have seen you before?"
"It's about the Magical Fighting Club two years ago. I was also in it at the time."
Xi Yeming had many outstanding performances at the Magic Fight two years ago, and it is inevitable that people will have some impressions.
"Ah, I remember," the second princess clapped her hands, "You are the shining magician, and it is said that you have now become one of the Ten Wills of the Holy Will."
Xi Yeming nodded to indicate that the second princess was right.
"This is the first time we meet. I am the second princess of the Gilligte Empire. My name is Sia. It is a pleasure to meet you, Lord Shengyi."
"I'm glad to meet you, Xia, too," Xi Yeming replied politely, "It looks like you are about the same age as Cosette. Are you thirteen?"
"Well, yes," Xia said with a smile, "Did Lord Shengyi be asked by Zell to be my teacher?"
"Yes, the housekeeper must be very discerning, so he can spot me on the street." Xi Yeming changed his usual dullness and actually joked.
"Who are these two?" Xia finally focused on the two girls beside Xi Yeming.
Xi Yeming wanted to lie and say that Cosette was his sister, but unexpectedly Cosette actually introduced herself first.
"I am the only princess of Yuyin Kingdom, Cosette, and I am also Lord Xi Yeming's traveling companion." Cosette puffed out her chest and said.
"..." Xi Yeming seemed to be aware of Cosette's subtle competitiveness, but he had enough sense not to expose it.
Binet whispered: "I, I am my father's daughter..."
These words shocked the housekeeper and the second princess. The second princess asked in a panic: "Has Lord Shengyi married a wife and given birth to a daughter?"
"Haha, no," Xi Yeming gently put his hand on Binai's head and explained awkwardly, "Binai is my adopted daughter."
After explaining this, the housekeeper and Xia understood more or less. After all, the Ten Wills of the Holy Will should not be outrageous in some aspects.
The steward said: "That's it. Lord Shengyi is really working hard."
"I see, sister Cosette is Lord Shengyi's traveling companion, and sister Binay is Lord Shengyi's adopted daughter," Sia said word by word, "Then I am Lord Shengyi's student, hahaha."
Hearing this, the housekeeper and Xi Yeming both laughed softly, but Cosette's eyes showed a hint of resentment.
"Hey, I may be older than you, so how can it be your turn to call me sister?"
Cosette's words caught everyone off guard, and Sia didn't expect Cosette to be hostile to her.
"Haha, girls are always stubborn about some aspects. In that case, you might as well call her by her first name. Is that convenient, housekeeper?" Xi Yeming cleverly smoothed things over.
The butler said expressionlessly: "As long as His Highness doesn't have any objections, I don't have any objections."
Xi Yeming realized that the butler's expression had become cold, perhaps because he was angry because of Cosette's actions.
"Of course I don't. Let's all get along well, right?" Xia said generously.
Even so, only Xi Yeming accepted this sentiment. Cosette was alone there sulking, and Binay was also very afraid of strangers and did not dare to talk to Xia.
Xia then remembered to greet Xi Yeming and the others, so she asked: "Ah, by the way, Zell, could you please give the three of you a cup of tea?"
"No problem, do you three have any requirements?"
Xi Yeming said: "Since you come to Her Royal Highness's house, of course you have to drink the most famous black tea of the Giliget Empire, okay, housekeeper?"
"Of course, Lord Shengyi really has good taste."
"I'll drink whatever dad drinks."
Cosette demanded: "I want to drink milk tea."
Xi Yeming was speechless for a while, and asked doubtfully: "Where can I get milk tea for you here?"
"Isn't this the residence of Her Royal Highness? Isn't there even milk tea?"
Xi Yeming could only apologize and said with a smile: "Sorry, housekeeper, Your Royal Highness, this girl is a bit willful today for some reason. Will it be troublesome?"
The housekeeper was thoughtful and slowly said, "No, please wait patiently for a while. I'll excuse you now."
After the housekeeper left, Xia looked at Xi Yeming again and muttered: "Doesn't it look a bit similar?"
Xi Yeming smiled and asked, "Like? Who does it look like?"
"I always feel like you are the Queen Mother. Is it an illusion?"
Xi Yeming was a little surprised when he heard this, and he continued to ask: "Really, how about you tell me what kind of person Her Majesty the Queen is?"
"Of course, but how about you guys sit down first?" Since she is a princess, she cannot forget the etiquette, so Sia also greeted a few guests.
After everyone was seated, Xia said, "The Queen Mother, I don't know her very well."
As a daughter, you don’t understand your mother? Xi Yeming felt a little uneasy.
"I don't know since when, my mother spends less and less time with me. Recently, it takes me several days to see my mother."
