Falsifying history is good business

Chapter 18 She is no longer called Kido Saori
Lin You looked down at the baby girl in his arms, his whole body filled with the low pressure of being suddenly tricked.

The baby girl seemed to sense the cold gaze and subconsciously arched her back towards the bottom of the swaddling clothes in her sleep, trying to avoid the cold gaze so that she could sleep more comfortably.

This "heartless" look made the boy very angry. So he threw the swaddling clothes on the desk roughly and sat on the chair sulking.

The rough action seemed to awaken the willful side of a little girl named "Saori Kido".

“Hmm…Hmm…Hmm…”

As soon as the baby left his arms, he began to hum in dissatisfaction; as soon as he touched the table, his little butt began to twist and turn restlessly. Although his eyes were still closed, his little head began to arch up and down, left and right, as if he wanted to regain the warm feeling in his arms.

When the baby was completely laid flat, whimpering was no longer enough to vent her emotions; her nostrils flared and she began to cry. Her eyelashes began to tremble rapidly, and her tightly closed eyes were ready to open at any time.

It is conceivable that when her eyes open, the little girl will use loud crying to wake herself and the people around her up.

Lin Youren jumped up from the chair before he even sat down firmly and took the swaddling clothes back into his hands.

All the noise stopped abruptly. The little girl arched her head into her arms and blew out new bubbles contentedly.

What a rotten kid!

Lin Youyi frowned and hesitated for a while, finally he walked out the door holding the child.

With some unspeakable evil thoughts, he deliberately stepped heavily and fiercely, and never hesitated when opening and closing the door, causing the door and the door frame to make a loud collision. But until he walked out of the reception room and walked to the corridor outside the door, the little girl was still sleeping soundly, without any sign of being woken up.

Even the harsh sound of the door opening and closing only made the little girl arch her head a little deeper, but she still slept soundly.

It seemed as if just sleeping in his arms could make her feel absolutely at ease.

Standing in front of the window and looking up at the night sky, the stars in the sky are not much different from an hour ago; but Lin You’s life is destined to have undergone earth-shaking changes compared to an hour ago.

He was certain that he had no way to deal with the little girl in his arms who only knew how to sleep.

Or... really throw them on the street? London's welfare institutions are quite complete, and children abandoned on the street will not be left unattended.

Should I wrap the baby in an extra layer of swaddling clothes to prevent it from freezing before others find it? Or should I leave some cash in the swaddling clothes?

No, if the person found holding the swaddling clothes is a homeless person or a thief, the money will not be kept at all; the baby may even be hurt because of the money.

Lin You's mind was full of thoughts, more than the bubbles coming out of the little girl's mouth. While he was thinking, someone hurried over to him; it turned out that the sound of opening and closing the door did not wake up the little girl, but alarmed the old housekeeper who was always cautious and responsible.

"Master, this is..." The old butler was obviously also confused by the baby girl in the cradle.

"I picked it up." Lin You pretended to be indifferent, and his tone was as if what he was holding in his arms was not a child, but a cat or a dog.

Unexpectedly, the old housekeeper couldn't take his eyes off the little girl's face when he first saw her, and immediately showed signs of inattention: "What a lovely child, is it... a girl?"

"Ken!" Lin You helplessly called out the old housekeeper's name as a reminder, "What should I do with this child?"

"Oh, I'm sorry, young master." The old butler remembered his job. "Where did you pick up this child? I mean, is she a Muggle child, or..."

"She has no parents, and she's a little special."

"Then it would be inappropriate to call the Muggle police." The old butler said this without taking his eyes off the little girl's face.

Lin You asked again: "Do you know any reliable welfare organizations?"

"What? Young Master is saying that he wants to send her to an orphanage?" The old housekeeper could hardly hide the surprise on his face, and his surprised tone clearly revealed his reluctance.

Should I really send her to a welfare institution? Lin You was also asking himself this question. He looked down at the little girl. Although she was sound asleep, her purple hair and the gem on her chest showed that she was extraordinary.

If you are in a welfare institution, purple hair is not a big deal. Although it is extremely rare in nature, there are reasons for it; for example, a genetic mutation like heterochromia iridum.

But the jewel on the chest could not be concealed.

It was based on thirteen golden holy garments, and was formed by the condensation of all the holy garments; not to mention that it contained energy no less than that of a star, more importantly, it only recognized Athena.

Although the gem is in a semi-dormant state, no one can take it away from the little girl. Such a magical gem is bound to attract the attention of interested people.

While thinking, Lin You did not realize that he was actually looking for reasons not to send the little girl to a welfare institution.

For a moment, the corridor fell into silence until the old butler reminded again.

"Master, the child seems to be awake."

Lin You lowered his head and met a pair of big eyes that were half asleep.

The baby girl also noticed the face so close to her. Her little head, which had been turning around, suddenly stopped, as if she had discovered some new treasure, and her eyes instantly brightened.

"Hehe...Ahaha..." The laughter of the Toothless Man was inexplicably infectious, making the old butler smile. Even the twisted expression on Lin You's face eased a lot.

After laughing a few times, a "cooing" sound came from the cradle; the little girl, who was "smiling without showing her teeth", suddenly had a drooping face, and her mouth pouted, her lips kept trembling, and her chubby cheeks bulged.

The old housekeeper was experienced and responded immediately: "She is hungry."

Before Lin You could figure out what to do, the old housekeeper ran away, not even bothering to follow the housekeeper's etiquette, his feet stomping loudly. After a while, he came back with a whole set of tools including milk bottles and pacifiers that appeared out of nowhere.

Facing Lin You's puzzled look, the old housekeeper could not hide a trace of excitement in his calmness: "This is what you used when you were a child. The master asked me to keep it. Now it comes in handy again."

I haven’t used it before! Lin You shouted in his heart.

Needless to say, this is the result of the "natural evolution" of history.

"It's adult milk powder. I only put a little bit in it to fill her stomach." The old housekeeper skillfully shook it and tested the temperature. "After daybreak, I will ask the maid to buy some infant milk powder... Uh, Master, do you need any?"

If you are sending the baby to a welfare institution, you naturally don't need to buy any infant formula.

The boy could hear the deep reluctance in the old butler's tone; it seemed that this reincarnated goddess conquered the loyal old man at first sight.

However, the little girl seemed to be unaware of her own charm. She was lying in Lin You's arms, drinking from the bottle happily, so comfortable that her eyes were half-closed. Through the half-open eyes, she seemed to be staring at Lin You intently.

That "smug" look made Lin You a little annoyed and he pinched the little girl's cheek hard.

Human babies are indeed more comfortable to pet than any other pets; these chubby baby fats feel really good to pinch.

"Poof!" She accidentally used too much force and squeezed the milk in her mouth out through her cheeks and vomited half of her body; the little girl cried loudly in grievance, and her reaction speed did not have any delay mechanism at all.

If you dare to bully the goddess, I will cry in front of you now!
When the crying started, the old housekeeper felt the most distressed and tried in a panic to comfort her. After finally stopping the crying, the little girl picked up the bottle again. Her expression was no longer pretty, but her eyes were still staring at Lin You. Her nostrils twitched and she made an angry "hum" sound from time to time.

He looked like he would never forgive, and his little expression was so adorable.

"Forget it, let's keep her! Even if she is a goddess, the Forrest family can afford to support her." Lin You couldn't resist the itch again, but his hand that was stretched out towards the little girl's face was blocked by the old housekeeper intentionally or unintentionally, so he had to turn around and rub the little girl's belly.

As a result, after a few rubs and pats, the little girl couldn't help but burp, and the milk was pushed out of her mouth again, and even some milk foam came out of her nostrils.

"Wow......" The tears that had never been completely held back immediately burst out.

Well, this is totally impossible to appease.

The old housekeeper cried "Aiyah" and reached out to grab the little girl in his hands, patting her and coaxing her. Fortunately, when he came to his senses, he still remembered the master-servant etiquette and took the initiative to change the subject to ease the young master's embarrassment: "Young master, what's her name?"

"Name..." Lin You recalled the names of the two reincarnations of Athena in the original novel, "Sasha... No, her name is Shasha. Since she looks so silly, I'll call her Shasha, Lin Shasha."

"Chinese name?" The old butler, who had served the Forrest family for most of his life and could understand Chinese, said, "In the UK, you can't have only one Chinese name."

Lin You thought for a moment, and then a ready-made name popped into his mind.

"Minerva, Minerva de Forest."
