Chapter 452: Chapter 204: How Outrageous, He’s Still a Child!_2
Hefei really wanted to lecture them from an elder’s point of view, saying that romance can wait, they should establish their careers before starting a family, and that they should prioritize their careers.
But on second thought, one was the young lady of the Lando Family, and the other was the heir of the Lando Family, both of them Silver Mages at such young ages, already very successful in their careers.
Retreating ten thousand steps, her actions from the past made it hard for her to stand on those grounds.
Indeed, they were her children; this trait they got from her!
Hefei chuckled at herself, advising Wayne to reconsider the matter. Although the Saint Heir’s public duties were busy, the benefits were real. She firmly believed in Wayne’s talent. Becoming the Saint Heir and receiving the Goddess’s teaching, he would certainly become a legend in the future.
Upon hearing this, Veronica couldn’t help but advise Wayne, saying the benefits were plentiful and he should sign up, and not be too hard on himself.
Wayne was secretly thrilled, but kept his expression unchanged, "Teacher, you don’t need to persuade me. I’ve said from the beginning that it doesn’t matter to me, your opinion is more important."
"Not to hide it from you, there was once a man who boasted to me about his glorious past, about twenty years ago, how he tricked a candidate for the Holy Maiden of the Naturalism Church into his grasp, how he sweet-talked her into marriage, and then how he had a smart and cute daughter..."
"I still remember his face clearly to this day. Teacher, you have no idea how smug he was at that time!"
"He laughed like this, Hehehehe————"
"Exactly who it is, I can’t say. I made a promise to Austin Lando not to spread rumors or reveal his name."
"..."x2
No, you’ve already named names! x2
Hefei raised her eyebrow, extending the maximum flying radius for the evening.
"Teacher, I heard that the candidate for the Holy Maiden wasn’t happy after her marriage. She gave up opportunities for love and ended up bringing suffering upon herself."
Wayne stood up from the sofa and declared, "She’s been waiting for a chance, a chance to prove herself. She’s fighting this battle, not to regain what she lost, but to show everyone how amazing she is, all for the sake of this battle!"
"As her student, I’d rather never fall in love in my lifetime but help her win this battle!"
"..."x2
Veronica looked at the piece of social trash in a daze, her vision blurred, and the image of the trash can loomed larger than ever before.
At least taller than the previous generation of trash cans!
"Good kid, I knew you were the best."
Hefei was deeply moved and stepped forward to hug her student, knowing that one could make a mistake in life, but not every time.
Wayne said what Hefei had in her heart. She hesitated indeed because of selfish desires, hoping to prove herself through her student.
Not for anything else, but to vent out the grievance she suffered through years of living in turmoil!
The more considerate Wayne was, the more Hefei couldn’t bear it. Her obsession faded considerably, and she smiled while wiping away her tears, "Let’s forget it then. As someone who has been through it, kids at your age should be pursuing passionate love. Twenty years is too long. Don’t give up your precious youth for someone else."
"Teacher isn’t ’someone else,’ you’re the most important family to me."
Hefei was deeply touched and hugged Wayne tightly. There was still room in her arms, so she spontaneously embraced Veronica as well.
For a moment, the whole family was together, and the atmosphere was incredibly warm.
Austin: (눈_눈)
The study wasn’t protected by a soundproof barrier. Austin just happened to pass by, and happen to overhear a bit. He felt something was missing in the room, and stood outside the door and hummed lightly. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
The effect was mediocre.
Hefei couldn’t be bothered to respond, waving her hand to set up a soundproof barrier before saying to Wayne, "The story that person told you wasn’t complete. The Holy Maiden candidate might have been tricked and muddled into marriage, but she doesn’t regret it. With a lovely daughter and a sensible student, she’s happy and doesn’t want to break this happiness."
As she spoke, she filled in the names of Wayne and Veronica on the recommendation form.
"Mother?"
Veronica was confused. Whatever happened to giving up? It seemed even more decisive now.
"I have a really annoying guy in Lundan. She’s the former Holy Maiden, my former competitor. She’s always behaving weirdly in front of me, carrying the attitude of a victor, scoffing at me as a loser," Hefei hummed twice. "I give you a mission: if you encounter anyone she endorses, defeating them will be considered completing the mission."
Saint Heir, Holy Maiden, she wasn’t competing for those anymore; instead, she encouraged Wayne and Veronica to hurry up and fall in love.
But!
She wasn’t going to compete, nor let Flora win. Throwing her trump card, she vowed to label Flora as a washed-up Holy Maiden.
As soon as Veronica heard that her mother had been wronged, she was filled with righteous indignation, and without even knowing who Flora’s candidate was, she regarded him as a lifelong enemy.
Wayne was nodding repeatedly as well, ready to lead the charge for the sake of avenging his teacher, no matter who the opponent was.
"Teacher, is the former Holy Maiden the one you mentioned before, Flora Evelina?"
"Exactly, she’s very scheming. I never took you to the district headquarters because I wanted to guard against her dirty tricks," Hefei snorted coldly.
Wayne raised his hand to his chin, a glint in his eye, "Teacher, what does she look like?"
"A pretty woman, the skin-deep kind... Why are you asking this?" Hefei asked curiously.
"I’m afraid she might use her beauty as a weapon, better to be prepared in advance."
"Indeed."
Hefei pondered for a moment; it made sense.
Her student was so outstanding that he was practically guaranteed the position of Saint Heir upon application, making even the Goddess go wow.
The likelihood of Flora’s candidate winning was zero. Unable to win fairly, they could only resort to dirty tricks. To realize her ambition for power, she really might take the initiative to use her beauty to ensnare.
