Chapter 153
Everything is moving in a positive direction.
Yes, at least that's what Zofia herself thinks.
So, after finally finishing her busy schedule, Zofia finally had some free time to continue being a wealthy woman... Oh wait, now that the Lumen Family is alive, Zofia seems to be even richer.
But when people have free time, they tend to start overthinking.
The same goes for Zofia.
In truth, Zofia wasn't quite sure whether her relationship with Centaurea was that of master and servant, best friends, or simply a case of two people who were each other's biggest enemies...
After a busy day, Zofia returned to her family's manor. On her way up to her room, she passed by Centaurea's former room.
Zofia instinctively stopped and pushed open the door.
Since Centaurea left, Zofia has not allowed the servants to clean her room, and it remains unchanged to this day.
You can tell from the layer of dust on the table inside that Centaurea is really gone.
"Although if Centaurea were here, she would definitely complain, 'I'm going to enjoy life, not die. Former Young Lady, can you please stop acting like you're looking at my belongings?'"
Zofia entered the room, walked to the window, and looked up at the full moon in the night sky, she couldn't help but tease herself like this.
"I wonder how Centaurea is doing now..."
After Centaurea left, Mr. Chen Ran seemed to have vanished.
No matter how Zofia called out to him, and even deliberately put on her leather jacket again to soak out several pounds of water, Mr. Chen Ran did not reappear.
Although her eldest niece, Margaret, looks dashing and capable, she's actually a bit... well, a bit dim-witted? Or, to use Mr. Chen Ran's words, a bit of a goofball?
So even without witnesses, Margaret was really foolish enough to believe everything Zofia said.
But what's the use? After all, Centaurea is gone, and Chen Ran has disappeared, as if all connections have been completely severed.
Even if Zofia wanted to know if Centaurea was doing well... there was nothing she could do.
"I wonder how Centaurea managed to summon Mr. Chen Ran back then."
"It couldn't possibly be that spell she taught me..."
"Hey, wait a minute?"
Zofia was taken aback.
Because she suddenly realized that she had indeed tried many methods to summon Chen Ran.
But that one incantation... it seems she's never actually recited it completely even once?
So Zofia first cautiously looked around, and seeing that there were no servants, she looked at her two nieces, who also seemed to be absent.
That...
"Cough, cough..."
While Zofia muttered to herself, 'How could I possibly say such shameless things...', she blushed and said, 'What's so fun about Centaurea's skinny figure? Look at me! Look at me! Look at my thing, isn't it softer than hers, bigger than hers, and can I do more tricks than her?!'
[A large, foreign woman is getting horny.]
Chen Ran: "?"
Chen Ran still arguing with Wishdale when the semi-transparent pop-up that suddenly appeared in front of him startled him.
What the heck is a foreign woman?
When this semi-transparent pop-up window flashes in this format, the preceding sentence is usually something like "Native planet detected".
Chen Ran wondered if he had gotten a gold item in a single pull.
Turning around, I discovered that the semi-transparent pop-up was pointing to the Worldline of my idol, Centaurea.
"So it's that big foreign woman who's being horny... Oh, it's you, Auntie."
"However, the nickname 'foreign horse' is quite suitable for you, Aunt."
Chen Ran zoomed in and zoomed out on the planet model in front of him.
Upon successfully spotting Zofia standing by the window, who was reaching out to hold her chest armor, he made this teasing remark.
Zofia, who was already feeling shy and embarrassed, became excited when she saw that Chen Ran had actually been summoned after she finished chanting the spell.
"Mr. Chen Ran, you actually showed up—"
"Wait... no, what's a 'foreign horse'?"
"And when did I... when did I become horny?! That was clearly a spell that Centaurea taught me..."
"Please don't record this!"
