Chapter 76: All Good Children, What Bad Intentions Could They Have?
“Mm!”
Leia seriously nodded, not having the slightest doubt about what Yifu said.
Because her own mother was very familiar with Her Highness Princess Alice, the problems Leia faced were also assisted by Her Highness Princess Alice.
It was even because of this that Leia had a very high favorability towards Her Highness Princess Alice.
She felt that Her Highness Princess Alice was very gentle, just like her own mother.
Not only that, but she also had the steady demeanor of someone in a high position. Despite being about the same age as Qianzhi, her maturity was far beyond that of Qianzhi.
She was the kind of gentle and beautiful big sister who would make people like her with just one glance.
Leia liked Her Highness Princess Alice very much and hoped her mother could have an even better relationship with Her Highness Princess Alice.
After all, with Her Highness Princess Alice around, Leia didn’t have to worry about herself and her mother being bullied.
Before she could spread her wings and protect her mother, Her Highness Princess Alice was the strongest support in Leia’s heart.
After all, what bad intentions could the princess have?
She was a good friend with whom her mother shared everything, the person who solved her problems, and among all the many strangers she had met for the first time, besides Yifu, she was the kindest to her.
Leia trusted her from the bottom of her heart.
Meanwhile, beautiful and melodious music started to play at the venue.
The dance began in the final stage of the ceremony; it was the last segment of student life for the students of Church Academy.
Once the dance ended, they would bid farewell to the Church Academy, complete their graduation ceremony, and become qualified members capable of serving the Empire and the Church.
It felt like saying goodbye to the times they had shared and welcoming a brand new future.
Even in such a solemn occasion as the graduation ceremony of Church Academy, having a dance was allowed.
Moreover, in the Church Academy, which had very strict doctrines, this was the only place where students were tacitly permitted to take the hand of the one they admired.
Though it’s called a dance, it was actually more an opportunity to confess to the “White Moonlight” that had existed in their hearts for a long time.
After all, once they left the Church Academy, it was very likely they would never intersect again.
Whether to stay quietly regretting over their love for their “White Moonlight” for a lifetime, or to muster the courage to try to take her hand and share a dance, thus extending this rare connection, depended on each individual’s bravery.
Of course, in front of popular girls, numerous hands would be extended, all waiting for her to choose among them.
Certain bright boys would similarly find shy girls pursing their lips, inviting them to dance.
“Youth feels like this,” Yifu observed the young children around her, watching them cheer with joy for successful mutual affection or hang their heads in disappointment due to unfulfilled fates.
Regardless of the outcome, it represented that their youth had come to a perfect conclusion at this moment.
This made Yifu involuntarily think of her own “White Moonlight” during high school. Even after so many years, she could not forget that fair and pure face.
Back then, she was still so naïve. Now she had transmigrated to another world and became a mother.
The more Yifu thought about it, the stranger she felt. Her youth seemed not as beautiful as this scene before her.
“Mom, Qianzhi is very popular.”
“Mm?”
Yifu looked in the direction Leia was pointing. After all, Qianzhi was pretty, came from a good family, and her own abilities were sufficient.
Naturally, she would attract a lot of attention.
There were boys surrounding her wanting to invite her to dance, nearly creating a blockade around Qianzhi.
Of course, it wasn’t just boys… There were also several girls who looked remarkable, extending their hands to Qianzhi with all their effort.
This made the shy Qianzhi start to sweat nervously.
Her delicate little face was full of helplessness as she looked around. Her gaze crossed over countless pairs of eager eyes until she finally spotted Yifu standing not far away.
She wanted to call out to Yifu for help, but the surrounding noise drowned out her already delicate voice, making Yifu unable to hear her.
All she could see was a hint of pity and helplessness in her eyes, like a weak little animal cub gazing up at its mother, hoping she would come to save her.
“Not gentlemanly at all. Can’t you see that Qianzhi isn’t willing?”
Leia pouted slightly, her words hardly finished when her sleeve was suddenly tugged.
Leia instinctively turned around to see a girl who looked slightly older than her, with a good figure, shyly standing beside her.
“Um… Leia, hello.”
“Ah… hello.”
Leia nodded instinctively, appraising the good-looking older sister before her.
She couldn’t figure out the situation after looking for quite a while… She didn’t even know her.
“I have an unusual request; I wanted to ask you…”
The girl hesitated, her slender arms hanging to her sides, indecisively hovering in the air.
“My little Leia is quite popular too; a beautiful older sister wants to invite you to dance. Don’t turn down her kind invitation, give it a try.”
“Making friends is also a good thing.”
Yifu leaned closer to Leia, whispering softly.
She smiled at the little girl, whose face was so red it seemed like it might bleed, but the other girl was so flustered by Yifu’s gaze that she couldn’t lift her head.
“N-No, you misunderstand. I just wanted to ask Miss Leia if it’s possible for your mother to dance with me?”
“Ah?”
Yifu, who was still thinking about how her daughter finally made a friend, suddenly had her smile freeze.
After all that, it was aimed at me?
It seems this classmate has a strong character too.
“Mom’s quite popular.”
“But I’m not a student… and…”
Yifu turned to look at Qianzhi, who still looked pitiably helpless, seeking assistance.
“I’m sorry, classmate, I don’t know how to dance. Thank you for your kindness.”
After Yifu finished apologizing, without thinking much, she hurriedly ran towards Qianzhi.
No matter what, she needed to rescue Qianzhi first; those pitiful little eyes made Yifu’s heart ache.
So adorable…
And upon seeing Yifu come over, Qianzhi’s expression of grievance became even more apparent.
But Yifu didn’t notice; her mouth was moving slightly, seeming to whisper something.
“You’re doing great, she’s coming over. Be a bit more enthusiastic; I’ll ask my aunt to give you double pay afterward.”
Then those around Qianzhi became even more enthusiastic.
