I'm here to save the world, what are you doing?

Little Lucius asked bluntly.

Fabian was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

"why?"

"Because... because I wasn't good enough."

Fabian spoke in a low voice, with deep disappointment in his eyes:

"I can't do anything as well as others. My father said I was a disgrace to him."

Young Lucius pondered for a moment, then said:

"Brother Fabian, why do you have to be better than others?"

"In my opinion, being yourself is the most amazing thing!"

"Be myself?"

Fabian was a little confused.

"Ok!"

Little Lucius nodded and counted Fabian's strengths carefully on his fingers:

"I think Brother Fabian is really amazing right now. He's great at drawing, willing to feed stray animals, and can even make delicious bread... Isn't that great?"

"You...you really think so?"

Fabian looked at this little cousin with some surprise.

"Of course! I would never lie!"

Little Lucius smiled brightly, radiating warm light to the surroundings like a little sun.

After that day, Fabian gradually learned to accept his imperfections.

Although his father's criticism never stopped, he had already developed a glimmer of resistance deep in his heart.

After finishing his reminiscence, Fabian found that his eyes were wet.

He looked around, and everyone looked at him with relief and approval.

It turned out that he had inadvertently shared his story with everyone.

This move also earned him everyone's acceptance.

"Well, welcome to the Illuminati, Fabian."

Reinhardt smiled and held out his hand.

Fabian took his hand and felt a sense of belonging he had never felt before.

At this moment, he realized that the mission his father had given him had completely failed.

But strangely, he didn't feel depressed or scared, but instead felt a sense of relief.

Is this what it feels like to be yourself? Is this what it feels like to follow your heart instead of others' expectations?

Ah! I have decided to betray my father and join the more powerful circle of the Illuminati!

Fabian, Lou has fallen.

Everyone: Hahahaha, Fabian, come and say hello to your dear father!

PS: Alas, another all-nighter.

After I make the recommendation next Friday, I’ll take a day off to have a good rest and adjust my work and rest schedule.

93-How can you talk to your brother-in-law like that!? (8k)

After finishing the investigation in the Corridor of Wisdom, Lucius sent Nora back to the Brunhild family.

"See you tonight, Brother Lucius."

Nora smiled sweetly and waved goodbye to Lucius gently.

"See you tonight, Nora."

Lucius nodded slightly and watched Nora walk into the mansion gate, looking back every few steps.

Only after Nora's figure disappeared from his sight did he get on the carriage that the Brunhild family sent him back to his official residence.

Yes, the two of them are just separated temporarily and will meet again in the evening.

In order to celebrate the return of the first princess Octavia and to allow her to appear in front of the imperial high-ranking officials, a palace banquet will be held in the palace tonight. Almost all the prominent nobles in the imperial capital will attend.

Nora was sent back so that she could prepare for the palace banquet.

As soon as the carriage passed through the iron gate of the official residence, Lucius saw Ivilia at a glance.

The gray-haired girl stood at the porch, her arms folded across her chest, looking as if she had been waiting for a long time.

"Hey, is Lucius Giegie back?"

When Ivelia saw Lucius, she glanced at him with her emerald eyes, and her voice was filled with the sourness of lemon:

"How was it like going to a two-person world with Nora?"

Lucius: How dare you!

How could Brother Lu allow you to be so sarcastic?

"Ah, that's awesome—"

Lucius raised a playful smile at the corner of his lips, deliberately lengthening his tone, revealing a satisfied expression:

"Nora is as cute as ever, and you know, a face-to-face hug is even better than some awkward ones..."

“Brother Lu!”

Iveliya stomped her feet hard. At this moment, the girl's blushing face spoke louder than any sweet words.

"Hahaha, it's just a joke, don't be angry."

Lucius smiled brightly, naturally put his arm around Iveliya's shoulders, and led her into the house.

"It was indeed a beautiful scene, but unfortunately I met that Chris along the way."

"She's such a master at ruining the atmosphere, making Nora feel uneasy all the time."

Ivylia: Okay, okay!

This little bitch Chris shows up at just the right time!

Hehe, did you see that, Nora? It's not that Sister Ai didn't create opportunities for you, it's just that you didn't seize them.

It seems that fate is on my side!

A cunning light flashed in Iviliya's eyes, but on the surface, she pretended to be sympathetic:

"Oh, that's a shame."

"Oh, Chris is so mean. I want to scold her severely on your behalf, Brother Lu."

You better mean it.

"..."

Lucius glanced at Ivelia's mouth, which was curled up wildly but was trying hard to suppress it, and said helplessly:

"Just laugh if you want to, Xiao Ai. It's really uncomfortable to hold it in."

"Kukuku~hahaha..."

Lucius:? ? ?

What's going on?

......

After washing up, Lucius immediately began to prepare his clothes for tonight.

Iveliya stood beside him, helping him choose clothes and stealing glances at him from time to time.

Finally, she couldn't help but speak:

"Brother Lu, could you please be more plain and not dress so extravagantly?"

"Ok?"

Lucius raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of amusement in his eyes:

"why?"

"You asked knowingly!"

Iveliya pursed her pink lips and glared at him gently, her clear eyes filled with dissatisfaction:

"Every time I go to a social setting like this, those bad women with bad intentions will swarm around me like bees smelling the fragrance of flowers."

"You feel good about attracting so many people, but have you ever considered my feelings?"

"I really don't want to encounter any more 'accidents'."

She put her hands on her hips, looking like a young wife making an accusation.

Alas, there are so many people who want to sip Lu Ge’s nectar!

But this is also human nature. Those who can resist humming in front of Brother Lu are the ones who are like this??

Lucius chuckled, picked up the pocket watch Nora had given him, and slowly fastened it into his vest pocket.

"Xiao Ai, did you forget something?"

"what's up?"

Iveliya looked bewildered, with doubt in her eyes.

"Tonight, I am attending the banquet as Plotina's fiancé."

Lucius gently adjusted his collar and explained slowly, with a hint of teasing in his tone:

"Even if there was to be an 'accident', it would be our princess who would encounter it first, not you~"

Iveliya: ???

Do you mean to say that I don't even have the qualifications to be targeted?

Oh my god, how could Plotina be so mean that she even wants to take this away!

Iveliya was angry.

Iveliya's jealousy was growing! Growing! Exploding!

It has increased tenfold or even ninefold!

I saw her eyes rolling around, a hint of strategy flashed in her smart pupils, and she spoke again:

"Then, then you should be even more low-key! As a husband, you must uphold male ethics!"

"Who are you casually showing off your charm to? Are you trying to seduce Plotina's elder and second sisters as well?"
