"So it really is you, Alex."
Irina took a meaningful look at Meg before boarding the horse-drawn carriage and sitting beside Amy.
She had heard the same answer 10 years ago, and it was still the same answer 10 years later.
Aside from him, there was no one else.
Mag lifted the unconscious coachman onto the horse-drawn carriage, and said, "He can still be resuscitated. Can you revive him and make him faint? That way, he'll be able to take us back with him when we go back. Otherwise, it'll be difficult for us to explain ourselves."
"Half-dead? Alright." Irina nodded before pointing a finger at the horse-drawn carriage driver. A speck of green light flew out from her fingertip before landing on the horse-drawn carriage driver's glabella.
"That's … a very interesting way to put it." Meg was a little speechless, but seeing as the horse-drawn carriage driver's complexion had returned to normal, he didn't say anything else. He kicked the sawdust off the ground and asked a passerby for the location of the Renhe Food Street before slowly driving the horse-drawn carriage forward in a slightly unfamiliar manner.
Meg's horse-riding skills were quite good, but this was his first time driving a horse-drawn carriage. Even though it was a little slow, he still managed to get the hang of it, and after gradually familiarizing himself with it, it was quite a smooth ride.
However, as he sat outside, Meg's mind was completely focused on the carriage behind him. He still wasn't sure if Irina had already recognized him and Amy.
Alex's memories of Irina had been completely erased, so he didn't even know what kind of person she was.
From his current observations, he could tell that she was bold, had a unique way of thinking, was prone to violence, and had the demeanor of a queen … but none of that had much to do with her IQ.
"Big Sister Irina, you said you'd come to find me again, but I thought it would be a long time before you did. I didn't think you'd appear so soon." Amy looked at Irina with a joyful smile on her face. She then looked outside and whispered, "Also, I only told Father about you. He's also super excited to see you."
"Really? I don't think he's showing it, "Irina said doubtfully. Her voice was just loud enough for Meg, who was sitting outside, to hear.
Meg blushed with shame. Amy was even trying to matchmake her parents.
"It's true. It's just that Father's reaction is a little slow, but I'm sure he really likes you. He's very gentle with women," Amy quickly said with certainty.
"You're gentle to all women?" Irina's voice suddenly became a little playful.
Meg suddenly felt an inexplicable chill run down his spine. He was afraid that Amy would say something she shouldn't. This was the first time he felt that women could be a little scary.
"Not really." Amy shook her head.
"That's more like it." Irina slowly loosened her clenched fists.
"Hu." Meg couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Amy knew what to say and what not to say.
Amy paused for a moment before continuing, "Father is only gentle with Teacher Luna, Big Sister Mia, Big Sister Aisha, Big Sister Gloria, Big Sister Vivian, Big Sister Anna …"
"Looks like there are quite a lot of pretty big sisters." Irina's voice became a little dangerous, and the temperature in the car seemed to drop quite a bit.
"Luna is Amy's teacher, Mia and Aisha are the restaurant's waitresses, Miss Gloria and Miss Vivian are the customers, and Anna is a five-year-old elf that I saved before …" Meg didn't know why he had to explain, but he felt that if he didn't, his life would be in danger.
As a man, he felt that this wasn't because he was afraid of his wife, but because he respected women.
He was a man who respected women's rights.
Yes, that must be it.
"I see."
Irina nodded noncommittally, and the temperature in the car eased a little.
Crassus, who had been silent all this time, interrupted, "I heard that Miss Gloria danced with Mr. Mak at the party, right? She doesn't seem to be an ordinary customer, right? "
Meg suddenly had the urge to jump out of the car …
"Looks like Mr. Mak is really popular with young ladies," Irina said with a smile, but she obviously emphasized the words "young ladies".
Amy looked at Irina in surprise. "Big Sister Irina, how did you know? There are a lot of young ladies lining up at the restaurant's entrance every day, wanting to be the boss' wife and have children for Father. "
"Giddy up! Giddy up! Giddy up! … "
Feeling the temperature gradually drop behind him, Meg waved the whip in his hand wildly.
I'm Meg, and now, I'm a little panicked.
Irina withdrew her gaze from the car curtain and looked at Amy, who was sitting obediently beside her. She rested her chin on her hands and looked at her, feeling as if her heart was about to melt.
This was the daughter she had been longing for. When she was born, she was just a little girl, and she was a little ugly, so she almost lost her. She didn't expect her to grow into such an adorable girl.
It had been three years, and she even thought that they were really gone. She didn't expect that she could still sit beside her like this.
'How should I improve my relationship with her?' Irina looked at Amy, feeling conflicted. Children were also very unfamiliar to her. She clumsily reached out to Amy, but halfway through, she awkwardly withdrew her hand and said in a commanding tone, "Amy, come into my arms."
'Am I too fierce? Shouldn't I be gentler? Will I scare her? 'As soon as she said that, Irina panicked and looked at Amy nervously.
"Really?" Amy's eyes lit up, and she looked at Irina in disbelief. She almost couldn't believe her ears. The fairy sister, who was as beautiful as a goddess, was actually asking her to go into her arms?
"You don't want to?" Irina opened her arms. She wanted to be gentler, but her words were still unquestionable.
"Of course I do!" Amy nodded vigorously without even thinking. Looking at Irina's open arms, she hesitated for a moment, then carefully approached her and rested her face on her chest.
"It's so soft, so warm, so comfortable!" Amy closed her eyes and opened her arms to hug Irina. There was a comforting fragrance on her body. It was like the fragrance of flowers, but it was more captivating than the fragrance of flowers. In this warm embrace, she felt as if she could fall asleep in an instant.
'If it was Mother's embrace, it would definitely be this warm …' Amy thought to herself, and a satisfied smile appeared on her face.
"Amy, my daughter, I've finally found you."
Irina hugged Amy gently, feeling the warmth from the little girl in her arms. It was a wonderful feeling that connected the two of them, as if a ribbon had tied them together. She gradually calmed down from her initial discomfort and patted her gently on the back. What a wonderful feeling this was.
