Chapitre 21: Ceremony [ V ]

The atmosphere in the Hall is extremely friendly and harmonious. There is no more drama, no more schemes. It is a healthy environment for current and future generations.

The development of the following Noble Families, Patriarchs, and Matriarchs being developed to be better characters with righteousness, love, sympathy, with principles in which they encourage and make their juniors learn.

Growing up in a pleasant environment makes each of them develop into a leader in any area.

But they grow not only up in that type of environment, but they are also taught the schemes that happen in a household that has more than one wife. What happens to the children outside the official wife, and what happens to the rulers who're conquered by a poisonous beauty.

Because of this is that in Long City there are very few Families that move up the ranks, such as the Jun, since the other Patriarchs make use of them as examples for their descendants.

***

"City Lord, can we see Princess Long?" one of the Patriarchs asks enthusiastically. Knowing that she is a perfect candidate for daughter-in-law.

Not a scheme, but the desired wife, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter-in-law, beautiful like her mother, is something they can't help but wish for.

"Yes, Lord Long, it would be nice to see her." Some nodded.

~AHAHAHAHAHAHA~

Lord Long's laughter echoed through the Hall, but no one was bothered. They all smiled.

"Long Mei Ling, my daughter, is in my wife's arms with the blanket covering her. I don't want to expose her to the cold, so you won't see her much, until the ceremony."

Lord Long graciously replied, but his thoughts were a far cry from his smile.

'MPH, you think I don't know what you want, Old Frogs, don't think about getting your paws on my princess, over my dead body!'

Knowing that what they have wanted is apparently exposed, the Patriarchs, just smiled without shame, lowering their heads. Although their expressions were normal, their hearts felt disappointed. But they soon changed as they remembered they can see her at the ceremony.

'We can wait until the ceremony, no problem...' sighing aloud at the thought, none of them pressed on the matter.

All this fell silent before the small eyes of Xiao Ling, who could see everything around her, even though no one could see her because of the blanket.

'Mommy said no one can see me, maybe because I am so beautiful, and she doesn't want to see eyes coveting me?'

*** Behold, the shamelessness is hereditary. ***

Long Shun and Long Hao are seeing the sons of all the Patriarchs. The latter, seeing this, encouraged their kids to talk to the Long duo. Thinking that they may look for a potential husband for Princess Long.

But they couldn't have been more wrong....

Madam Long took everything around her in her eyes, and her being the only one who knows about the ring and the possibility of the existence of a son-in-law, makes her doesn't look favorably upon the kids present, and knowing the Patriarchs' intentions she just rolled her eyes inwardly.

'Who knows what kind of man this latest generation will grow into, besides, the design of the ring Xiao Ling has is unique and gives the feeling that it is not a normal ring. If the person who gave her that ring did it to mark her territory, that's the best way to do it.'

Actually, Madam Long has been satisfied with this unknown son-in-law prospect, as she was studying the ring on her baby's finger and realized that it emits an extraordinary light and a powerful sense that cannot be seen with the naked eye, besides that, the attachment of her daughter has it makes her feel more confident that the identity is not ordinary.

"Everyone knows that the Longs can't get engaged, much less marry someone from Long City, every Long goes out in search of his soul mate, so I don't think it's good for you guys to get your hopes up on giving me a son-in-law..."

Madam Long's innocent and harmless comment awakened all from their longings.

Sighing in disappointment, each of them knows it is a battle, they have never won.

Hearing that Long Shun, Long Hao, and Lord Long changed their expressions, remembering what happens the moment they reach the age of marriage, the Clan member must leave and return to where their roots lie and search for their other half.

Which makes them not know whether Xiao Ling has to go out, or wait for her to come?

But when they thought about it, they decided to eliminate that kind of thought, since she should not marry could but had to...

The overprotective Long trio was born at this stage.

The future son-in-law has a long way to go to conquer the family.

***

Jin. Who had been forgotten by many... (Or almost all), is lying on a red cushion. Beside him are several snacks.

In one of his paws, he is holding a small glass that nobody knows where it came from. And in his other paw he is holding a weird snack.

Knowing that his Chibi Master is with his mother, he is enjoying life, enjoying the snacks.

'Oh, this is life, and to think that I will be some twenty years like this, I hope I won't get too fat...' thinking that he wants to eat a lot, but not get fat to be carried by his Chibi Master, Jin felt a little sad.

'I'll have to give up different kinds of snacks, but I can eat twice as many as the others...' twitching his whiskers in excitement, he didn't realize that if he eats twice as much as the ones he plans to eat, it would be the same as eating the ones he wants to give up.

>>>>

Xiao Ling was pulling back the blanket to get a better view of her surroundings and caught her mother's attention.

"What's wrong, baby? Are you uncomfortable?" Opening the blanket a little, Madam Long looked into her daughter's eyes and immediately understood.

"Don't worry, when the initiation ceremony begins, I will remove the blanket, so you can select what you like best."

Xiao Ling gave her mother an expectant look. Her eyes screamed, 'Really?' Which made her mother smile and gave her a nod. At her mother's affirmative answer, Xiao Ling gave her a nod, and her expression eased a lot.
