After taking care of Mia, Baiyi placed her on the bed and tucked her in.
Yes, it was to tell her to go to bed and sleep. That was all.
It had been years since Baiyi had done such a thing. Today, he suddenly had the idea to relive it, and his heart was filled with warmth. He teased, "Do you still want it, Sharkie?"
Mia, who was wrapped up like a silkworm, smiled and shook her head. After all, she had grown up over the years. There was no longer a need for her to hug the plushie to sleep. At this point, there were many functions of the hammerhead shark plushie that Mia no longer needed. She no longer needed it to protect her. However, out of remembrance, she would not throw it away. Instead, she placed it on the headboard of her bed and treated it as an ordinary decoration.
"You should bring it with you when we go out." Baiyi reminded her before he left. Mia had already entered the Legendary Tier, and she was accompanied by Mordred, who was even more powerful than she was. Furthermore, the teachers and students were not completely defenseless, so it was unlikely that they would run into any danger. Even if they did, the hammerhead shark plushie would not be of much help.
Mia could feel Baiyi's concern for her, so she nodded obediently and said, "Don't worry. Actually, I always bring Sharkie with me wherever I go." Baiyi's eyes lit up, and he nodded his head obediently. As she spoke, she reached out from under the blanket and gently stroked the hammerhead shark plushie's snow-white belly.
"That's true. It's still a powerful magical tool, isn't it?" Baiyi nodded. "Alright, I still need to pay Vidomina a visit. Goodnight!" Baiyi was about to jump out of the window when he finished his sentence.
Mia stopped him and asked the question that had been bothering her for a long time. "Mr. Hope, if you're not going to participate in the thesis review, is there something more important?"
There were many things that Baiyi did not tell his students, and he had also instructed Tisdale and Vidomina not to talk about them. However, they still managed to divulge some information. Mia could roughly guess that Baiyi's current situation was not as good as it seemed on the surface.
Baiyi thought about it for a while and decided not to tell her the details of the mission. He only used the excuse of investigating a mysterious case as an excuse. Perhaps it was because he spoiled his daughter too much, but he did not want her to get involved in such matters. He just wanted her to grow up in peace.
Mia could guess his intentions, so she did not pursue the matter. Instead, she said with concern, "Then you must be careful, Mr. Hope. Come back soon."
Baiyi nodded and left without a word.
After he left, Mia curled up under the blanket and muttered, "Mr. Hope is still so good to me, but when can I change the way I address him? Daddy is still very much alive, so I can't call him that. But if I call him Daddy Hope, it's just like Vidomina. Or should I call him Godfather? "
As she mulled over these strange thoughts, she fell into a sweet dream.
Baiyi, on the other hand, was doing something inhumanely cruel — he had forcefully woken Vidomina up from her slumber and told her what to do next.
Vidomina opened the door for him in her pajamas. Her breasts were jiggling, and she was still in a daze. She mumbled, "Oh … Godfather, you're finally going to do something to me? I know it's against human nature, but if you're willing, you can … "
Of course, Vidomina's inexplicable remark was met with a small water arrow spell that helped to clear her head. Vidomina was immediately hit in the face and came to her senses. She quickly corrected herself and said, "Hey, hey, hey! Did I say something weird just now? I'm sorry, Godfather! I was in a daze, so please forget it. "
"I'm sorry to interrupt your sweet dreams, but there's something important I need to talk to you about. Let's go inside," Baiyi replied.
"Huh? Something important? Did you find me a marriage partner, Godfather? Is he good-looking? How's his family? "Vidomina, who had regained her composure, asked with a smirk. She even dared to joke around with Baiyi.
"Well, I did think about it. Some of the nobles mentioned it to me at the party tonight, but they were all repulsive people who came because of your status as the Vice Principal, so I rejected them all," Baiyi said sternly. Baiyi said sternly as he walked into the house and sat down on the sofa. He turned his head to look at Vidomina's almost transparent chiffon nightgown, which was as thin as a cicada's wings. "Go put on your clothes first."
'As expected of that woman's daughter. Mother and daughter are so alike when it comes to choosing clothes …'
Although Vidomina dared to joke with him, she did not dare to disobey him. She obediently put on a thick coat, which covered her alluring body, and sat down on the couch opposite Baiyi, waiting for him to speak.
After that, Baiyi briefly told her about the mission the Empire had given him. He emphasized on the military supply, which required her to contact the Blacksmith Walker and the others to prepare some samples. Then, he ordered her to organize Da Xue's industries and get ready for mass production.
"Ugh … That's a big deal! That's a little troublesome, "Tisdale said with a frown.
"Tisdale and the Apprentice Walker will help you with some of the daily work," Baiyi comforted.
As a matter of fact, Vidomina's status as a duke's daughter was one of the reasons why Baiyi was allowed to handle this matter. This way, when it came to recruiting workers and building workshops, it would be more convenient for Vidomina to deal with the government and nobles. Even though she had already declared her separation from House Wright, no one would dare to disrespect her father.
It was a utilitarian and practical decision, but they were both adults, and Vidomina understood Baiyi's intentions. She did not say anything.
"That's all for now. You go ahead and get started. If you have any questions, talk to my teacher, or wait for me to come back. Anyway, thank you for your hard work," Baiyi said, reaching out to pat Vidomina's head to comfort her.
Vidomina squinted her eyes as she enjoyed his touch. She said, "It's not a big deal. But this time, Godfather, you're going to have to deal with Godsfall again, aren't you? Then … "
She did not finish her sentence, but Baiyi knew what she was going to say. "Don't worry. If I see her, I'll try to bring her back."
"Thank you, Godfather," Vidomina said, giving Baiyi a girl-like hug and rubbing her head against his chest.
As a matter of fact, Vidomina's status as the Vice Principal of the Academy was now comparable to that of a Duke's daughter. Whether it was in terms of strength or achievements, Vidomina was far beyond the reach of a princess. Simply put, Vidomina was living a good life.
However, as the saying goes, blood is thicker than water. The conflict between them had been eroded by time and family. Even though Vidomina had never returned home, she had kept in touch with her father, the Duke, through letters. It was only natural that she would care about her mother, who was trapped in the Godsfall cult.
However, Godsfall was now a cult that everyone wanted to kill. Although Baiyi had tried his best to find Madame Harllotte, there was still no news of her. Vidomina had already prepared herself for the worst, but she still had some hope. Baiyi knew about this.
"If I can find her mother, it'll be a good thing, right?" Baiyi muttered to himself as he walked along the dark path.
Soon, Baiyi made his way to the Voidwalkers' living quarters. Like his daughters, each Voidwalker was assigned a small house. When Baiyi got closer, he cast a Silence Barrier over the entire area. Then, he took out a gong from somewhere and started banging it loudly. "It's time for a meeting! Everyone, gather at my house!" Baiyi yelled.
Immediately, a series of curses rang out from the house.
"Can't you just let us sleep in the middle of the night?!"
"Sh * t! Even the most detestable capitalist wouldn't do something as inhumane as having a meeting in the middle of the night! "
