Ai Lisi spent one of the happiest days of her life in Akat.
Ever since she was young, Ai Lisi's time with the people she loved was very short. Her father, Randt, was very busy with the Knights' office and rarely came home. Since young, Ai Lisi spent every boring day with the servants.
After her father left her, she was adopted by Marquis Akat, who was under her father's protection. Ai Lisi didn't have a good impression of Marquis Ka Diya at first.
After all, no matter how reasonable she was, it was difficult for Ai Lisi to get close to Ka Diya, who was one of the reasons for her father's death. That was why Ai Lisi was very polite when she saw Ka Diya.
Polite, but distant. That was the limit of what Ai Lisi could do.
It was the same when she saw him.
Ai Lisi recalled the first time she saw Luo Ya. At that time, she had already heard of Luo Ya's various misdeeds. When they first met, she was actually afraid. She was afraid that he would be like the people who bullied her before and become her new nightmare.
But this time, the girl was completely wrong.
Luo Ya's doting towards her was far beyond Ai Lisi's imagination. Ai Lisi had never had siblings, but from what she knew, even siblings of the same mother wouldn't be able to do this, let alone an adopted child like her.
Was there a purpose?
Ai Lisi had thought about it seriously before. She had also eavesdropped on the servants' discussions, and the only conclusion she got was that this body was passable.
Was it? Was it a body? If that was the case, then it didn't matter.
Ai Lisi, who yearned for affection, thought so. For Luo Ya, who had been the best to her in her life, entrusting her body to him didn't seem like a big deal. It was more like a reasonable reward.
Ai Lisi didn't know much about the matters between men and women due to her age, but she knew that Akat's family was withering. What she needed to do in the future was probably to give birth to Luo Ya's children.
Somehow, he felt that it was not bad.
If she could stay by his side forever, if she could be happy forever, Ai Lisi felt that it was completely acceptable. After tasting happiness and love, she could no longer bear the pain and loneliness of the past.
Therefore, she made up her mind and lived happily with Luo Ya every day. She felt that this kind of happiness would continue forever.
However, the nightmare suddenly arrived. Brown, who had once bullied her, reappeared in front of her and brought her back to hell. At this time, Luo Ya appeared again. He reached out his hand and broke the thorns around Ai Lisi, pulling her out of the darkness.
On the night that Luo Ya was unconscious, Ai Lisi stubbornly stayed by her bedside. That night, she thought a lot and changed a lot. Something fiery started to grow in her heart and started to burn uncontrollably. It burned her body, burned her thoughts, and almost set her on fire.
This was probably what adults meant by love.
This was what the girl thought that night.
If Ai Lisi's feelings for Luo Ya before were equivalent to accepting an exchange, then Ai Lisi now wanted to give. This was the inevitable manifestation of true love.
Body, heart, feelings, everything Ai Lisi wanted to give to the person she loved the most. This kind of impulse was hard to control, so she couldn't help but confess. She also received the response she imagined.
That moment was the happiest moment in Ai Lisi's life.
Originally, Ai Lisi should have been satisfied with this, but during her conversation with Luo Ya, some things made Ai Lisi seriously think about it.
That was the follow-up problem and the future of Akat's family.
Luo Ya forbade Ai Lisi from blaming herself, but it was also a fact that the Akat family was at odds with Count Eric's family because of her. In addition, Luo Ya had already replaced her as the new target of the Eric family.
Ai Lisi had heard from Ka Diya that Luo Ya's extraordinary abilities were likely to be very limited. In the future, it was very likely that he wouldn't even be able to obtain an Origin Substance. Originally, he should have kept a low profile and continued to spread his family, but because of Ai Lisi, he had resolutely become the archenemy of the Eric family. He had walked into the whirlpool of power struggles and put himself in danger.
Luo Ya wanted Ai Lisi to stop blaming herself, but how could the girl do that under these circumstances?
If it was the Ai Lisi of the past, she probably would have treated Luo Ya optimistically and secretly cried when no one was around. However, the current Ai Lisi wanted to make a different choice because she had also changed because of this incident.
She had gained an epiphany when she had held that blade. Ai Lisi's cowardice had been washed away in that moment. She had used her own hands to protect the people important to her and obtained the future she wanted. She had also understood one thing.
Happiness had to be grasped by oneself.
In the past, she had waited numbly and fortunately received the happiness that Luo Ya had given her. Now, however, she wanted to control her own destiny and personally grasp the happiness that belonged to the two of them.
And this wasn't impossible.
Luo Ya's situation wasn't unprecedented. There were quite a few extraordinary families like Akat's that had experienced a lapse in their generation. There were many ways to deal with this situation. Usually, they would marry more and have more children. However, if they were facing a powerful enemy, then having a powerful partner was often the best choice.
