This sleep.

Lux slept soundly.

In the past, she was always on tenterhooks, always worried that her identity as a mage would be exposed.

Then he was expelled, bringing shame to the Crownguard family.

But now.

Everything has changed, and she no longer has to worry.

When Lux woke up from her sleep and opened her eyes, she discovered her current situation.

He immediately blushed.

Why was he holding Jiang Hengyu’s arm?

It was clear that there was still some distance between the two of them when they went to bed last night.

He quietly looked at Jiang Hengyu and found that the other party didn’t seem to notice.

Lux breathed a sigh of relief, because she suddenly realized that she seemed to be approaching him on her own initiative.

It was so embarrassing, but luckily it wasn’t discovered.

Lux glanced at Jiang Hengyu again, and was immediately attracted to him.

He even subconsciously reached out to poke Jiang Hengyu’s cheek with his finger. ah.

What am I doing?

While she was shocked by her bold behavior, she stared at Jiang Hengyu’s reaction, fearing that the other party would wake up.

Lux breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Jiang Hengyu didn’t wake up.

She couldn’t believe how embarrassing it would be if the other person woke up and their eyes met.

So Lux quietly stood up and left, returning to her original position.

She pretended to be asleep, but her slightly red ears betrayed her.

At this moment, her heart was beating as fast as a deer.

Another moment passed.

Jiang Hengyu just woke up leisurely, stood up and glanced at Lux who was still pretending to be asleep.

Laughing dumbly.

He was very alert, and Lux squirmed next to him in the middle of the night.

He had already woken up.

Not to mention that Lux suddenly poked his face with her finger.

Forget it, just pretend not to know.

To prevent the other person from being too embarrassed.

Wait until Jiang Hengyu left the firewood pile and went to get water from the stream.

Lux’s tense nerves relaxed. She first put her hand in front of her mouth, opened her mouth and let out a breath.

Fortunately, there is no peculiar smell.

Lux finally woke up feeling a little relieved.

She lifted up her skirt and bowed to Jiang Hengyu who was returning with a kettle. She had a slight smile on her face and said in a sweet voice:

“Good morning, Mr. Jiang Hengyu.”

Jiang Hengyu responded to Lux’s greetings:”Good morning, Miss Lux, you are as beautiful as ever today.”

“Thanks.”

Jiang Hengyu added some firewood and put the kettle on to boil.

“I really want to stay like this forever.”Lacus looked at Jiang Hengyu who was busy preparing breakfast with full eyes, and there was an inexplicable meaning in his words.

Jiang Hengyu smiled:”Me too.”

Lux’s face turned red when she heard this.

The two communicated tacitly.

“Why do I feel like something is watching us.”

After chatting for a while, Lux always felt that there was a line of sight staring at her nearby, which made her a little uncomfortable.

Jiang Hengyu pointed to a big tree and explained with a smile:”It’s the falcon arranged during the Fearless Pioneer trial.”

Lux looked in the direction of his finger, and sure enough she saw a falcon standing on the treetop, staring at them closely.

“They didn’t allow us to enter the city, saying they wanted to test our wilderness survival skills.”

“ah!”

Lacus was stunned for a moment. She turned her head and looked at Jiang Hengyu’s pile of equipment. What kind of wilderness survival is this?

If he hadn’t said anything, Lacus would have thought that he was here for a journey.

“I don’t like to stick to the rules and follow what’s told. Jiang Hengyu blinked at her:”But it’s good that you and I know this. Don’t tell anyone else, otherwise I will probably be eliminated.””

Lacus nodded slightly, feeling a little excited. She felt that Jiang Hengyu was so compatible with her.

She was not a person who liked to obey what was told.

Her tutor taught her to be loyal to her family.

Her parents also told her to be like her elders and protect her. The territory of Demacia.

But she prefers to explore the world outside Demacia.

This has been her dream since childhood.

It is no longer the case. Her dream now is to explore the unknown world with Jiang Hengyu

……

“Go back quickly, your family must be worried about you now if you haven’t been home all night.”

Jiang Hengyu rode a horse and took Lacus out of the Mianyun Forest.

They came to the carriage road leading to Mithril City.

After Lacus said goodbye to Jiang Hengyu, she was a little reluctant to leave and turned back three times.

Jiang Hengyu stood on the side and waved to her. Waving her hand,

Lacus understood that Jiang Hengyu still had his own mission.

The two parties had agreed to meet again next time.

When they arrived at the gate of Mithril City, Lacus looked back.

Although she couldn’t see it, she seemed to be able to detect Jiang Hengyu’s Exist.

When Lux returned to her manor, her mother Ogesha was standing on the steps of the luxurious foyer waiting for her.

Seeing Lux return safely, Ogesha first breathed a sigh of relief, and then said in a stern tone:”Why didn’t you go home all night?”

Lacus could hear the dissatisfaction in her mother’s tone.

Ogesha knew her daughter was in trouble, so she softened her attitude a little:”I have already found the demon user, and it’s not too late now.” Hearing what her mother said, Lux discovered that there was a woman wearing a hood and wearing black sitting on the sofa in the corner of the luxurious foyer.

“I’m not possessed by demons, and I don’t need her help.”Lacus gritted her teeth and said

“Are you crazy?”Ogesha looked at her daughter in disbelief.

Lux retorted:”Mother, I’m not crazy, I’m beautiful, generous and aboveboard. Ogesha suppressed her anger:”Do you know what the consequences will be if you do this?””

“Mother, let her leave first. I have something to tell you later.”Lake didn’t give in at all.

Ogesha’s eyes widened, as if she knew her daughter for the first time.

The useless demon envoy also heard what Lux said, stood up and said:”It seems that I’m not needed here, Mrs. Crownguard, leave. Got it”

“etc.……”

Although Lux said that she did not need the help of the Demon Lord.

But Ogesha still gave the other party a large amount of compensation as hush money.

Facing the powerful Crown Guard family, the Demon-Destroyer naturally did not dare to express his dissatisfaction.

She happily accepted the compensation and left the Crownguard family’s manor.

After watching the other party leave, Ogesha angrily went to Lux to settle the score.

“Mother, don’t be angry first, listen to me……”

Lux repeated Jiang Hengyu’s words.

Ogesha was stunned.

The demon searchers did not dare to take action against the nobles, and many of the great nobles even had several mages around them.

In this case, haven’t they been worrying in vain all these years?

Ha…

Ogesha laughed at herself, but soon her eyes became sharp.

“Who told you these words?”

“Jiang Hengyu……”Lux blurted out subconsciously.

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she felt something was wrong.

Sure enough, Ogesha frowned and asked:”Who is Jiang Hengyu? When did you know each other?”

Lux laughed and changed the subject:”Mom, I haven’t slept all night, please let me rest first, I’m fine I’m sleepy.”

After saying that, she got up and went back to her room without giving her mother a chance to continue questioning.

Ogesha looked at Lux’s back and hesitated to speak.

Her mother’s instinct told her.

My daughter seems to have a crush on someone?
