Luring Little Seele Home!
"Hmph... Although I know I can't stop you, if you don't want to hurt them, then please don't forcibly take them away."
Clearly, Cocolia knew her place and Ling Xi's identity, so she knew very well that she couldn't stop it.
"Hehe, don't worry."
Ling Xi couldn't help but smile and said, "I took them away in the hope of giving them a better childhood and living environment, so everything is based on making them happy. Therefore... I will persuade them to come back with me, but I will not forcibly take them away."
"Thanks..."
Cocolia was immediately relieved. She was afraid that Ling Xi might have some unusual hobby and then forcibly take them away.
Although through years of contact, Cocolia does not think Ling Xi is that kind of person.
"By the way, you should also help me persuade them."
Ling Xi smiled slightly and said, "After all, you're practically their mother, aren't you? So... I'm counting on you."
"I will."
Cocolia readily agreed. After all, although the orphanage was indeed well-fed and clothed thanks to Ling Xi's sponsorship, that was all it was.
If Seele and the others were to follow Ling Xi, they would obviously have a better life!
After all, he knew very well what kind of person Ling Xi was. He was the executor of Anti-Entropy, had a close relationship with Dr. Einstein, had a love-hate relationship with Lobotomy Corporation, and had even kicked the Anti-Entropy Leader in the butt!
At the same time, this guy is also the captain of the Schicksal Headquarters. Not only does he chat and laugh with Schicksal's Bishop Otto, but nominally, Schicksal's two S-class Valkyrie are his subordinates, and... they even live together!
Therefore, Cocolia is not worried that Seele and the Seele will be mistreated when they go back with Ling Xi.
"Hey, it's Ling Xi!"
"Ling Xi, it's been a long time!"
Did Ling Xi bring a cake?
Soon, Ling Xi arrived at the orphanage's hall, and the children in the orphanage ran towards Ling Xi, calling out "Ling Xi!"
Ling Xi "..."
Ling Xi was speechless at this form of address. After all, they first called Mother Cocolia," and then they called her "Brother"... This...
Am I now the son?
Although I've corrected myself many times not to call myself "brother," but...
These kids just won't listen!
Never mind, let's find Seele first.
Ling Xi looked around and saw that almost all the children who had seen her before had gathered around, as had many of the new kids who had arrived in the last few months, including... those two brats.
"Here, take this..."
Ling Xi snapped her fingers and then, as if by magic, produced a cake and some candies and dried fruits. In the past, Ling Xi would occasionally patiently share them with everyone, but not today...
At this moment, Ling Xi noticed the little girl with blue hair in the corner. She looked shy and wanted to come over, but was also a little scared. When she realized that Ling Xi was looking at her, she immediately lowered her head...
Ling Xi: "..." Okay, it seems... Seele probably doesn't have any memories of the Previous Era!
"Here you go, divide it among yourselves."
Ling Xi casually handed the gifts to the little ones, and the little ones were very obedient. They didn't fight over them, but went to the side to share them!
Ling Xi then approached Seele, took out a piece of strawberry cake, and asked with a smile, "Little sister, what's your name?"
"Um... Xi... Seele..."
Seele still looked shy, looking at the cake in Ling Xi's hand, wanting to reach out and take it, but also a little scared.
"Try it, I think you'll like it."
Ling Xi then took out a spoon and gently scooped up a small piece to feed Seele. Back then... Seele's favorite was strawberry cake, and this piece of cake was a strawberry cake that Ling Xi had left behind in the Previous Era, a different kind from the current civilization!
This time, however, Seele didn't refuse. She carefully accepted Ling Xi's offer, took a bite of the cake, and immediately...
This taste...
Suddenly, countless memories and fragments seemed to flash through Seele's mind, only to vanish in an instant, but...
"Ling Xi?"
Although Seele didn't remember anything, she knew that the person in front of her was very kind; he was her... Ling Xi!
Before she knew it, Seele found herself shedding tears...
"Seele, you... you remember?"
Ling Xi was also quite excited. Could it be that this piece of cake had really awakened Seele's memories?
"Ugh..."
Seele shook her head and looked at Ling Xi seriously, "I... don't remember, but... I... I know you are a very important person to me, right?"
"Um..."
Ling Xi nodded gently, then reached out her right hand and gently took Seele's small hand in hers, smiling as she said, "Come home with me, we... we can talk about it slowly when we get home, okay?"
"Um..."
Seele nodded in agreement without hesitation. Even though she didn't remember Ling Xi, she remembered the taste of the cake, the feeling of Ling Xi holding her hand, and even more...
Ling Xi is the most important person in my life!
So, Seele wanted to go back with Ling Xi, she wanted... to be with Ling Xi.
I... I definitely won't miss it again!
Chapter 669 Kidnapping Little Seele and Bringing Her Home!
Seeing that she had won over Seele so easily, Ling Xi's biggest concern completely disappeared. As for the other two girls...
Cherry cake won over Rosaliya, blueberry cake won over Liliya, and just like that, the three little girls were all won over without any difficulty.
Seeing this scene, Cocolia seemed to have a headache, especially since the two girls really didn't seem very bright!
Afterwards, Seele and the other two said a brief goodbye to the other children in the orphanage, and then left with Ling Xi.
Although Ling Xi noticed the expectant looks in the other children's eyes as she left, but...
I really can't help you.
After all, we already have enough young girls at home. If we bring more people back, there won't be enough room for them!
Besides, he only sponsored the orphanage for Seele and the others, so he wouldn't pay much attention to the Ling Xi.
Of course, Ling Xi will continue to sponsor the orphanage, but... she might not come as often in the future.
Back on the warship, the crew couldn't help but complain when they saw Ling Xi making such a big fuss by sailing the warship to the orphanage just to pick up three little girls...
But I just wanted to vent. After all, Ling Xi is the captain, so you get to decide...
"From now on, this will be your new home."
Not long after, Ling Xi brought the three of them back home. Fortunately, the villa that Otto had given her was big enough, otherwise it really wouldn't have been able to accommodate so many people.
"Wow, it's huge!"
"Yes, it's bigger than an orphanage."
Upon arriving home, the twins couldn't help but be amazed, as it was the first time they had ever seen such a large building, even more spacious than the orphanage's main hall.
"Don't worry, I'll take you to see bigger places in the future."
Ling Xi smiled and said, "After all, this is your home. There are no more rooms on the second floor, but there are still rooms on the third and first floors. You can sleep together or separately, it's up to you."
"Ling Xi?"
The commotion in the living room naturally alerted the others, who all came out of their rooms and saw that Ling Xi had three little girls with her.
"Damn it, aren't we enough for you? And..."
Shigure Kira immediately said with a look of disgust, "Ling Xi, I misjudged you."
"That's right."
Cheng Lixue also pursed her lips and deliberately said, "Are you afraid we'll get old, so you're raising the next generation in advance? No... we should be like Master now, we won't get old, right?"
"Ling Xi ..."
Sirin looked on with curiosity and asked, "Who are they?"
"Um... let me explain to you slowly, but..."
Ling Xi smiled slightly and said, "They will be living in our house from now on."
"Seele?"
However, Fu Hua recognized Seele, although... this Seele looked considerably smaller than the Seele from the Previous Era, but...
That hair color, that face shape, it's definitely Seele!
"Huh? You... know Seele?"
Hearing Fu Hua call out her name, Seele seemed somewhat surprised. It was one thing for Ling Xi to know her, since she felt quite familiar with Ling Xi, but... she had absolutely no recollection of the person in front of her.
"Hmm... Heh, Ling Xi told me about it."
Fu Hua didn't say much, after all, some things couldn't be said, and besides...
Seele doesn't recognize herself, meaning that Seele at this time has no memories of the Previous Era.
Even though he and Seele didn't have much contact in the Previous Era, they were still considered ordinary friends. So, if Seele really had memories of the Previous Era, it was impossible for her not to recognize him at all.
Afterwards, Ling Xi gave everyone a brief introduction to the three of them. However, Ling Xi would definitely not talk about the Previous Era of Seele. She only told everyone that she had brought these three back from the orphanage.
No one seemed to have any objections, since Ling Xi was the one who made the decisions at home, and even if they did have opinions, it probably wouldn't change anything.
Besides, no one is heartless, so everyone was quite willing to accept Seele and the other two!
In the evening, Ling Xi brought the three young girls to his mother-in-law's house and successfully reunited with the other three girls.
Rita was invited to the three's home, but in reality, Rita mainly wanted to see Ling Xi, which is why she came along!
As for why she befriended the two Kiana in the first place, it's hard to say she didn't have ulterior motives...
Forget about the details!
In short, a group of girls got together, and then...
Seele and Bronya seemed to have some special connection; they inexplicably started chatting together. After learning about Seele's background, Bronya very generously declared that she would take care of and protect Seele, and even began to act as her older sister...
Seele initially wanted to refuse, but... she felt that Bronya's sisterly aura was too strong, so...
Half a liter of purine, I only regret not having served Sister Ming. If the duck does not abandon me, I am willing to worship the duck as my sworn sister!
"Sister Bronya..."
And just like that, Seele successfully recognized Sister Bronya!
"Yes, Seele, I'll protect you from now on!"
Bronya was also very happy; she... was finally not the youngest in the family anymore!
Ling Xi: "..." Okay, it's the inevitable course of history, I'm used to it...
On the other hand, Kiana seemed to get along quite well with Gemini, probably because they both have a bit of a bearish personality!
As for Kiana... she felt like she was superfluous?
So Kiana decided to go play with Rita, but...
"Good evening, Lord Ling Xi."
Rita came to Ling Xi's side and poured Ling Xi a cup of tea, saying with a smile, "Please have some tea."
"Yes, Rita..."
Ling Xi looked at Rita with some curiosity. Well, this girl has already started to become a maid. Although she doesn't have a maid outfit yet, at this rate, it will probably be soon.
"You're welcome, Lord Ling Xi."
Rita smiled very politely and said, "Are you free the day after tomorrow, Lord Ling Xi? Rita... would like to invite you to my home to try Ling Xi 'Rita cooking."
