No matter what, Shien's decision to stay had already been set in stone.
He did not want to explain. The more he explained, the messier it would get. The others would not believe him at all. If he continued to explain, he might get agitated and say the wrong thing. Then, a certain fierce female cat might jump out and bite him again.
Therefore, Shien could only speak weakly.
"Anyway, I will stay in the royal capital for a month. You can go back first."
Anyway, in the royal capital, Shien had more or less become familiar with the people. It should not be a problem for him to stay alone.
Of course, he had to discuss it with Mijis first. Since they were staying here, it would not be right for him to not greet them properly.
However, after Shien said that he would stay, the group of girls said the same thing.
"Since you want to stay, I will stay too."
Tierre made up her mind without any hesitation, which surprised the group of girls.
Especially Lumia and Merica.
Vivian was fine. At least she knew Tierre's situation and could guess why she wanted to stay.
But Lumia and Merica could not.
"… Tierre seems to be on good terms with Mr. Shien recently."
Lumia's face was full of surprise.
"Is this still the cold and indifferent Tierre?"
Merica puffed up her cheeks. It was unknown why she was unhappy.
But Tierre did not explain at all, as if she could not be bothered to explain. After making her decision, she did not say anything else and quietly drank her tea.
Shien, on the other hand, was happy.
After all, if Tierre did not leave, she would continue to be his bath partner, right?
This was a good relationship!
"What do you two plan to do?"
Vivian laughed and shook her head. She turned to Lumia and Merica for confirmation.
In the end, both of them looked a little hesitant.
"I …" Merica stole a glance at Shien, and then said in a mosquito-like voice, "I will stay too."
"Is that so?" Vivian looked at Merica with a faint smile and said, "Why?"
"No … No why." Merica continued to say with a guilty conscience, "Since Mr. Shien and Tierre both want to stay, then I will stay too."
That weak voice did not sound convincing no matter how one listened to it.
"What about Lumia?"
Vivian could only shake her head and confirm with the last member of the group.
Lumia's expression was still full of hesitation and even a little dilemma.
"Since Tierre and Merica both want to stay, I also want to stay." Lumia was worried. "But my sisters are still in Lamigion. If there's no one to take care of them for too long …"
In other words, Lumia was very worried about her sisters' condition.
Lumia was very worried about her sisters' condition.
"Don't worry. There's still Lily in the Lamagegion. If she knows you won't be returning to the Lamagegion for the time being, she'll definitely help you take care of your sisters." Vivian smiled. "And it's only a month. We've been away from Lamigion for almost a month. Another month shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Lucia seemed to have understood what Vivian was trying to say.
"Does Sister Vivian want me to stay?"
"Vivian.
You can say that. " Vivian did not hide it. "Tierre wants to stay, Merica wants to stay, and Shien is here. Since you want to stay as well, I might as well stay."
If even Vivian wanted to stay, she could not let Lumia go back alone, could she?
Because of this, Vivian tried to comfort and persuade him.
"Will it be alright?"
Lumia was still a little worried.
"Don't worry, I will write to Lily and ask her to take care of your sisters."
Vivian patted Lumia's shoulder, giving her courage.
"Then … Alright …"
Only then did Lucia reluctantly agree to it.
And so, everyone in Vivian's group decided to stay in the royal capital.
The time limit was temporarily set at a month.
At this time, Shien had already slipped to Tierre's side.
"You really want to stay?"
Shien asked in a low voice.
"Are you not welcome?"
Tierre glanced at Shien and asked instead of answering.
"Of course not."
Shien denied without hesitation.
Among the group, the one that Shien wanted to stay the most was Tierre.
As for the reason, everyone knew it even if he did not say it.
But …
"You don't like the royal capital, right?" Shien confirmed. "If you stay in the royal capital, you will continue to be in trouble. Is that okay?"
Shien had to have this concern.
No matter what, after deciding to spend the next month in the underground library, Shien would not have the time to continue protecting Tierre in secret.
If that happened, Tierre might encounter unimaginable trouble.
She knew this very well.
But Shien's words did not change Tierre's mind.
"Although I don't like this place, that doesn't mean I'm afraid. I can already protect myself." Tierre said calmly. "Besides, you know my situation. So wherever you are, I will be there."
These words almost moved Sean to the point of becoming a mess.
When he first met Tierre, he thought she was the coldest and most uncommunicative girl in the team. But now, she actually said such words to Shien. It really made Shien want to marry her … Bah! He wanted to marry this little girl!
But no matter how moved he was, he couldn't turn a blind eye to Tierre's troubles.
If at the beginning, Shien helped Tierre because of Rosie's instructions, then now, he wanted to help this little girl from the bottom of his heart.
At that moment, Shien glanced over at Ai Yi who seemed to be sleepy and yawning. She looked so cute that she could explode. Shien had a plan in his mind.
(If all else fails, I'll let Ai Yi be my personal guard for a month.)
With Ai Yi around, Tierre's safety would not be an issue.
He just didn't know if this little girl was willing or not.
It couldn't be helped. After all, Ai Yi was only interested in Shien.
At first glance, this little girl seemed to get along well with Shien. But in fact, when she was with people other than Shien, Ai Yi always had a lukewarm feeling. Even when Lucia and Merica were very warm to her, she always looked disinterested.
Under such circumstances, it was a little uncertain whether this hidden big boss would be willing to be Tierre's guard for a month.
(If it doesn't work, I'll have to continue.)
Shien was mentally prepared to have a good "chat" with Ai Yi.
After that, they requested to stay for another month at dinner, and Mijis agreed without hesitation.
The matter was settled just like that.
