Chapter 37

The night had deepened, and Homhot Commercial District seemed to have donned a brilliant gown.

Felyn's group passed through the streets and arrived at Homhot's core area.

Looking around, there were luxury shops everywhere. In the high-end store windows, various goods appeared especially alluring under the lights.

This was Felyn's first time coming to such a place, since he normally couldn't afford to shop here.

At the entrance of [Dreamy Summer].

As a restaurant with songstress performances, [Dreamy Summer] had always been popular.

Several of the songstresses had already become famous throughout all of Seiwa.

Felyn had originally wanted to refuse going in with Adeline, but this week [Dreamy Summer] actually had a maid theme.

With a research and learning mindset, Felyn still agreed.

Since Linda was a precious supreme member, almost all the songstresses in the shop rushed over as soon as they entered.

"Hahahahahaha, don't be like this, I'm so embarrassed hahahaha."

Linda had already transformed into a pervert surrounded by the songstress girls.

Watching Linda's reaction, Adeline suddenly thought of Felyn beside her.

What if Felyn also showed a perverted smile like Linda's under the assault of these songstress girls?

Thinking this, Adeline suddenly felt uncomfortable.

She hurriedly turned around, wanting to see Felyn's reaction.

Felyn, a few steps away from her, was now surrounded by maid-dressed songstresses.

Looking at the thighs with white stockings creating a fleshy sensation surrounding him, Felyn wasn't as excited as one might imagine.

Maids shouldn't be like this!

These maids were indeed very good-looking with great figures, but they lacked soul.

That slightly inexperienced and resistant but having to obey orders, then gradually falling and becoming addicted, finally willingly giving everything—that was the best look.

But these maids now showed fake smiles, saying "Master, I really love you the most."

Honestly, these maids' acting wasn't even as good as his own.

Manager, take all your maids back for retraining!

Adeline couldn't possibly know that Felyn was mentally critiquing these maids. She only saw that Felyn maintained basic social distance from all the girls around him, politely waving his hands to refuse them all.

He could stay calm even in such a scene!

He's so devoted!

He loves me so much!

The three sat in the best viewing position in the shop. The girls on stage performed desperately, but the three people below the stage had their thoughts completely elsewhere.

Adeline: He loves me so much, he loves me so much, he loves me so much.

Felyn: No, all of you go back for special training! Can you maids looking at me keep your composure? Don't think I'm some young master and frantically rush at me. Where's your professional integrity?

Linda: Why did I come out tonight? Wasn't it because I was in a bad mood and asked Adeline to accompany me to [Dreamy Summer]? What's with these two? Could they be a secret couple!

Linda silently drank her beverage, her attention completely focused on this handsome guy beside her.

When did Adeline, such a perfect gentle young lady, have such a handsome male friend?

So curious.

"Adeline, Adeline."

Linda tugged at Adeline's clothes and leaned to her ear.

"What's the relationship between you two?"

"Eh? Just... just ordinary friends."

"Don't give me that! I've never heard of Lady Adeline having any male friends. Aren't you the type who always keeps distance from men and absolutely won't meet privately to avoid affecting the Claude family's reputation!"

"Linda, I'm not that rigid and conservative. You make me sound like some stuffy young lady."

Adeline lightly tapped Linda's head, her eyes unconsciously glancing at Felyn who was still wearing his mask.

"You two really have nothing going on?"

"Really nothing! He's the son of my father's friend, that's all."

Adeline wasn't exactly lying.

A few years ago, the Sorester and Claude families had quite good relations.

"Then you don't like him either?"

Adeline froze for a moment, her pink face twitching slightly.

Before Adeline could answer, Linda continued: "If you're not going for him, then I will. Do you mind?"

?

The gentle smile on Adeline's face became stiff.

"I don't mind."

Anyway, Felyn likes me, so if you go after him you'll just be asking for trouble.

Hmph!

Linda let down her high ponytail, letting it fall behind her.

She took out lipstick from her bag and applied it while looking in a mirror, touched up her makeup, then popped a candy in her mouth.

These were all things she'd learned from magazines. Her theoretical experience was very rich, but she'd never practiced.

That's right, she was the romance-naive young lady who always got deceived by middle-aged women disguised as young men.

Watching Linda's somewhat eager preparation, Adeline tightly pinched her own arm.

Why did she stubbornly say she didn't mind?

If she'd been direct and said she minded, that would have been better. Linda could think whatever she wanted—she wouldn't tell others anyway.

Now watching her friend wanting to steal Felyn away, why was her heart so nervous?

Adeline silently chanted in her heart: "Calm down, Adeline! Felyn likes me!"

But watching Linda take her wine glass and sit beside Felyn, Adeline's eyes grew increasingly lifeless.

No!

Don't sit next to him!

"Hey there, what a coincidence."

Linda sat beside Felyn, who was seriously observing the maids. Felyn turned his head slightly to look at her.

Was this pickup approach serious?

"Miss Linda, hello."

Linda gripped her wine glass tightly. The moment Felyn turned his head, her heartbeat nearly stopped.

[Dreamy Summer]'s music seemed to be played at 0.5x speed.

"Miss Linda, thank you for inviting me here tonight. I'm very happy."

Felyn said while secretly observing Adeline's reaction.

Something felt off.

"Not at all, it was Adeline's suggestion, thanks to her. Just now Adeline also said we're quite compatible hahaha... how embarrassing..."

Adeline was about to turn dark.

She watched Linda and Felyn chatting and laughing in front of her, and this Linda actually said it was her idea. Her fists clenched.

If not for the Claude family honor binding her, Adeline would want to kick Linda out right now.

"Eh, Adeline thinks we're very compatible." Felyn replied.

He finally found the reason for his uncomfortable feeling.

Adeline had her beautiful girl best friend come hit on him.

During his service time, she let another woman get close to him right in front of her...

Adeline, you, so you like NTR?
