Commorragh, Lady Malys's mansion.
After listening to Lelith's story, Li Feng nodded thoughtfully. Indeed, among so many brothers, Magnus and Fulgrim, who seemed the most artistic, were actually only half-baked.
The truly artistic one was Chagatai. Not only was he proficient in all arts like music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, but the Khan in that story just now sounded like... a light novel protagonist.
"So... you're really in love with Chagatai?"
Li Feng asked doubtfully. But at this moment, Lelith's face immediately turned crimson. She put her hands on her hips, pouted, and turned her head away. "Who likes that barbaric monkey! I just... I just... Miss him a little..."
Li Feng slapped his thigh. "That's it! tsundere! This trope is really too old, a tsundere Eldar girl..." "I didn't expect... you're actually 'Aunt from Another World'..."
"Who? Aunt? How did I become an aunt?" Lelith asked, puzzled. She clearly hadn't understood what the immortal who knew Chagatai in front of her was saying.
Thump~ Thump~ Thump~
Suddenly! A soft knocking sound came from the door. At this moment, Li Feng and Lelith in the room immediately panicked. Lelith directly hid in the closet, while Li Feng lay directly on the bed. However, in the next second, both of them suddenly became curious at the same time: why were they hiding? It was as if they had been caught in the act!
Then, the door slowly opened. Eliette, with her long red hair, opened Li Feng's door and quietly poked her head in. Eliette cautiously closed the door, her gaze sweeping over Li Feng, who was lying on the bed. He was "sleeping" peacefully, his handsome face utterly calm.
Eliette bit her lip, hugging the quilt tightly in her arms, her footsteps so light that they made almost no sound.
Her heart was incredibly conflicted. As an ascetic White Aeldari, she had always strived to maintain inner peace and resist her desires. However, the city of Commorragh was a huge trial ground, constantly challenging her will.
Every Drukhari / Dark Aeldari around her indulged in their desires. She could hear laughter, shouts, and even the sound of things being smashed in the streets.
To her, all of it was like a whispering temptation, frantically tearing at her moral shackles.
Only by Li Feng's side did she feel a trace of peace. She didn't know why, perhaps it was the uniqueness about him, or perhaps... she had already... So, after several hours of tossing and turning, she made up her mind, hugged her quilt, and quietly came to Li Feng's room.
Moving her feet softly, Eliette climbed onto the bed, spread out the quilt, and gently covered herself. She turned on her side, cautiously looking at Li Feng's face, afraid that her breath would wake him.
She just lay there quietly, like a small animal that had found a safe harbor.
But she didn't know that Li Feng wasn't asleep at all.
"Oh, this... another Aunt from Another World has arrived," Li Feng muttered to himself.
Although his eyes were closed, he was fully aware of Eliette's every move. From Lelith hiding in the closet to Eliette climbing onto the bed, he saw it all.
Eliette's voice suddenly rang out, light as a feather: "Li Feng, are you asleep?"
Li Feng certainly heard it, but he chose to continue feigning sleep.
He really didn't know how to deal with this situation: one was the Arena Queen of Commorragh, his "future daughter-in-law," inexplicably hiding in the closet like a third party caught in the act.
The other was an ascetic, reserved person, but now she was "rebellious" enough to run to his bed. This plot, no matter how he looked at it, was not right.
Eliette sighed softly, murmuring to herself: "It's so good... With you here, I won't be afraid."
Li Feng sighed deeply in his heart. This plot was getting more and more ridiculous. He kept his eyes tightly shut, pretending not to know anything, silently hoping all this would end quickly. However, that was clearly a luxury.
Eliette's whisper was as faint as a dream, but every word clearly reached Li Feng's ears: "It's so good... With you here, I won't be afraid."
"Afraid?" Li Feng wondered in his heart, but dared not open his eyes. Speaking of which, what exactly was this White Aeldari saintess afraid of?
While he was thinking, he suddenly heard a faint "click" from the closet. Lelith had endured for a long time and finally couldn't hold back. She gently pushed open a crack in the closet door, observing the movement in the room through the gap.
She saw Eliette lying quietly next to Li Feng, her serene little face making Lelith's curiosity explode instantly. She suddenly became very curious... "What the! Don't those reserved types pride themselves on purity? How can they... Tsk tsk tsk, they're all secretly lustful after all."
However, while the emotions in the closet were overflowing, Li Feng still maintained his "calm" sleeping posture.
Just then, Eliette seemed to muster her courage. She gently reached out and tentatively touched the back of Li Feng's hand. The action was like a kitten gently pawing at something novel, with a hint of hesitation and curiosity.
"What are you doing?!" Li Feng had a million questions in his heart, but he still held back and didn't move, continuing to pretend to sleep.
However, seeing no reaction from Li Feng, Eliette's actions began to grow bolder. She directly hugged Li Feng from behind, burying her body into Li Feng's back.
This feeling of peace made her feel very good; all the noise and anxiety disappeared at this moment. And Lelith in the closet immediately covered her mouth. "This girl... wow."
Eliette's action instantly stiffened his back, but on the surface, he maintained the appearance of "deep sleep," even feigning a turn, trying to break free from this inexplicable embrace. However, this turn only made the situation more complicated.
Eliette thought he was unconsciously moving closer, and she hugged him even more securely, murmuring softly, "Li Feng, you truly are a strange person... By your side, I feel even Commorragh isn't so terrifying."
At this moment, Li Feng was already frantically calculating in his mind: "Should I just 'wake up'? Otherwise, if I keep pretending, who knows what else will happen..."
Just as he was about to move, he suddenly heard Eliette say softly:
"Do you know? We Ark Aeldari, our creed has always been'suppress emotions,' but I found... here, the result of suppression only makes me more confused, more vulnerable."
