Chapter Seventy: Outstanding Graduate Representative
“Did I perform well?”
As soon as Alice stepped off the stage, she rushed to Yifu’s side. Although it wasn’t appropriate for her to hug Yifu affectionately in front of so many people, she still intentionally leaned her shoulder against Yifu’s.
“Not bad, but Your Highness, could you stop staring at me while you’re giving your speech on stage?”
Yifu’s tone carried a hint of dissatisfaction.
“Ah, I was just nervous.”
Alice said in a delicate voice, her tone full of a playful charm.
“You’re nervous? I was the one who got nervous being watched by you…”
Yifu’s expression was filled with helplessness. Every time Alice on stage fixed her gaze on her, it seemed to align perfectly with the moment she mentioned some bizarre words.
For example, when Alice said on stage that she needed to deeply implement the policies set by the Empire, especially when she said the words “deeply,” she would sneak a glance at Yifu.
Sometimes she would playfully convey secret messages to Yifu using subtle emphasis in her tone.
To the average listener, there might not seem to be anything special. But Yifu, who knew Alice very well, understood it differently.
While listening from below, Yifu inexplicably connected Alice’s hidden messages…
The overall content was… Y·i·f·u·brain·I·want·to·deeply·you!
One must say, the Princess was quite playful, engaging in such antics in front of so many people without fearing anyone noticing anything unusual.
“So what’s there to be nervous about? I think you should be the one more nervous next.”
“Nervous about what next? According to the procedure, isn’t there just the Outstanding Graduate speech left, and then we start the feast?”
Yifu looked around, already eyeing the delicate little cakes.
After all the fuss since morning, her stomach was already hungry.
Although Yifu’s figure was already somewhat plump, making it unadvisable to continue eating, one must understand that being a single mom is hard work. If she didn’t replenish her energy in time, what would happen to her round little belly and meat legs?
Who would help me fill this big belly?
“You still don’t know? The Outstanding Graduate representative is your daughter, Leia.”
“Leia? Isn’t it Qianzhi?”
Yifu instinctively looked up at the stage, only to see Leia, under Vivian’s guidance, strutting to the center of the spotlight like a proud little peacock.
At that moment, all the graduates in the academy focused their attention on her.
Leia, having regained her confidence, took a deep breath. Facing the puzzled and surprised gazes of the crowd, she did not flinch this time.
Confident Leia shone so brightly that even Vivian, beside her, who was dressed in a white feather dress symbolizing the supreme status of the Holy Maiden, appeared somewhat dim in comparison.
Of course, it might also have something to do with Vivian’s dejected demeanor.
“Isn’t that… Leia?”
“I think I’ve seen this girl before; she usually rarely talks, either in the library or at the training ground.”
“Turns out the Outstanding Graduate representative… can be an ordinary student with only good grades like her?”
“She’s not ordinary! Look at her dress; that unique design must be of royal quality!”
“Not just that… the dress Alice wore earlier seems to be less meticulously crafted than hers.”
“I just saw her having a close relationship with the Student Council President, Miss Qianzhi.”
“Is her mother that beautiful white-haired lady? I remember the Princess once affectionately linked arms with her.”
“White-haired lady? Where is the white-haired lady? I must clarify, I’m not interested in married women with children; I just like white-haired bears with nice rears and black stockings. Besides, I’m a girl. This is admiration, not perversion…”
