Chương 486: Chapter 487: Do you two have to flirt like that constantly?

"Shalendra!" Keerla suddenly called as she turned to one of the Solarians, who had shoulder-length blue hair and the largest breasts Adam had ever seen, before asking, "You attended Capital University in your youth, correct?"

"Yes, ma'am," the woman called Shalendra replied.

"Good. You are to escort Adam and his wife…." Keerla began but suddenly realised that she didn't know Rowena's name, so she turned to her and apologetically said, "My apologies, but I never got your name."

"Rowena," Rowena replied with a smile and made all the women nearby widen their eyes in surprise. [Superhearofangirl (Earth): Did she really just tell them her real name? Does she understand the concept of a secret identity?] [OrangeeyedStace (Felinia 7): 🤦] [Whitehorn (Darah 5): Well, to be fair, it's probably her first time trying to hide her identity, though even I'm surprised that she gave her real name.]"Rowena? As in the model Rowena Nosferatu?" Liluth asked in surprise.

"Yup, my dad was a huge fan," Rowena replied simply while shrugging as Adam shook his head. [Phoenixempress (Fenix Nest): Seriously? She couldn't come up with a better excuse?] [Thewhitesoverign (Felinia 7): I like that excuse; I might have to use it myself in the future.] [Phoenixempress (Fenix Nest): No Tephe. It's a terrible excuse.]"Err, sure," Keerla replied before turning back to Shalendra and saying, "You're to escort Adam and Rowena to the Historic Research Department and aid them in whatever they need to do there. If anyone raises any objections, feel free to remind them that you're a member of the queen's personal bodyguards and point out that if they have any complaints that they should send them to the palace."

"Understood, ma'am." Shalendra replied before turning to Adam and Rowena and saying, "If you will follow me, I will show you the way to the Historic Research Department."

"One moment," Rowena said before smiling at Adam and saying, "Adam, darling. Can you give me a few moments alone with Liluth? I need to have a private word with her, you know, girl stuff."

"Err, sure," Adam replied before stepping away while Liluth looked at Rowena curiously.

"Do you also want me to step away?" Keerla asked, though showed no actual intention to move.

"Would you move away even if I requested it?" Rowena asked back while smirking.

"No," Keerla replied simply.

"Exactly, so let's have a little girl talk before we separate," Rowena replied before turning to Liluth and saying, "I'm going to give you a bit of advice, Liluth, are you willing to listen to it?"

"Of course," Liluth replied while nodding.

"Good. So the real reason you're so fond of us is that we don't treat you like a princess and just as a regular person and friend, right?" Rowena asked. Liluth shuffled her feet slightly before nodding shyly.

"And I'm guessing none of your classmates treat you as anything other than a princess, right?" Rowena asked, to which Liluth nodded again.

"Then here's my advice. You need to change the way you're approaching this if you want to make friends with those your age."

"What do you mean?" Liluth asked in confusion as Keerla listened in with curiosity.

"As a princess, you're too used to everyone approaching you; I doubt you have ever needed to approach anyone for anything. The general Solarian citizens have no idea that you want them to treat you as a normal person and not as a princess. A smart girl like you should be able to follow what I'm saying, right?"

Liluth nodded before saying, "You're suggesting that if I want people to treat me like everyone else and to make friends, then I should be the one to approach them and tell them that?"

"Exactly," Rowena said with a smile.

"This is good advice, Liluth. But you should still remember to be careful of whom you befriend," Kerala stated.

"Understood, Aunt Keerla," Liluth replied obediently.

"Good girl," Keerla said before stroking Liluth's short-blond hair, only for Liluth to quickly push her hand away before saying.

"I'm not a kid, Aunt Keerla."

"Oh?" Keerla replied as she raised her eyebrow at Liluth's response, before she seemed to realise something and looked at Adam, who was waiting patiently a short distance away.

"Oh, I see now," Keerla said as she shot Liluth a knowing smile.

"See what?" Liluth asked suspiciously as she looked at Keerla with narrowed eyes.

"Nothing, nothing, I'm just curious to know why you would let Adam stroke your hair but not your own godmother?" Keerla replied with a pout.

"No, no reason," Liluth replied as she looked around in panic. [Handsome3horns (Vinox 2): She can't seriously be suggesting that Princess Liluth Solar has romantic feelings for the streamer? I mean, she's like 11 right now.] [NonpareilRaphilia (Aaru): I doubt that she's attracted to him in that sense. I mean, they only just met, and she is still young. But there is definitely something there.] [LadyErkath (Deverinian Prime): Don't forget that women generally start puberty before men.]"Well, it's time we were on our way. It was a pleasure meeting you both," Rowena said to Liluth and Keerla before approaching Adam and after she hooked her arm through his, she said, "Shall we be on our way, darling?" Adam nodded before turning to Liluth and waving while saying, "Bye Liluth, it was nice meeting you."

"Bye," Liluth said with a sad smile before adding, "I hope we meet again."

"I hope so, too," Adam replied with a smile before turning to Shalendra and saying, "Please lead the way." Shalendra nodded and said, "Please follow me." After which, she began to walk further into the university as Adam and Rowena followed, arm in arm.

"Now, why do you look so sad?" Keerla asked in a teasing tone as she turned to Liluth.

"I don't know what you're talking about," Liluth replied adamantly before walking towards the shuttle. Keerla smiled and shook her head as she watched Liluth walking away before her smile turned into a serious look as she turned towards where Bullet had been restrained and ordered, "Transport that man back on the soldiers' shuttle. I want him nowhere near the princess."

"Yes, ma'am," the woman who had restrained Bullet replied before dragging him away. Keerla nodded and followed after Liluth to board the shuttle with some of the other women. As soon as everyone was on board, the shuttle took off and set course back towards the palace.

"Aunt Keerla," Liluth, who had been silent for a few minutes, suddenly said.

"Yes, Liluth?" Keerla replied.

"Can I ask you for a favour, well, two favours?"

"That depends on what they are."

"I know you plan to inform mother about everything that you learned and saw, but please don't tell father; you know how overprotective he is."

"My loyalty is to your mother; it's the queen's choice if she informs the king. Though I will pass on your request to her."

"Thank you," Liluth said gratefully.

"Then what's your second request?" Keerla asked, though she was pretty sure she could guess what it was.

"Mother will probably ask you to do a background check on Adam and Rowena to find out who they really are. I would like a copy of that background check."

"What's in it for me?" Keerla asked with a scheming smile.

"You want my dessert in exchange, don't you?" Liluth replied while rolling her eyes.

"I never said that, but I would happily exchange any information I get for your dessert, if your offering that is," Keerla replied innocently.

"Fine, fine, it's a deal."

"Good girl," Keerla said happily.

"Well, that was interesting," Rowena said with a smile as she and Adam followed Shalendra through the university grounds.

"Did you know that would happen?" Adam asked in a low whisper so that Shalendra wouldn't hear.

"Did I know what would happen?" Rowena replied innocently, though she couldn't hide her signature smirk.

"You know your signature smirk is a huge giveaway, right?" Adam asked.

"I honestly don't know what you mean."

"So you had no idea that Liluth would be at the university and that Caninians would attempt to kidnap her?" Adam asked suspiciously.

"It rings a bell now that it's happened," Rowena replied while winking at him with a smile.

"You did know," Adam replied with a sigh before asking, "Is that what you were having trouble remembering? Or were you even having trouble remembering it at all?"

"I'm hurt that you're so suspicious of your own wife," Rowena replied with a smile before leaning closer to his ear and whispering in a seductive tone, "daarrlliinngg." Adam couldn't help but shiver as he heard Rowena's seductive tone, causing her to giggle happily as she started to stroke the inside of his arm again with her finger in a way that no one else could see. [OfficialAphrodite (Felinia 7): That bitch is flirting with him again, isn't she?] [Phoenixempress (Fenix Nest): She totally is.] [OrangeeyedStace (Felinia 7): 😮💨] [OfficialLorelie (Felinia 7): Give it up, Stace. You know this is happening whether you like it or not.] [OrangeeyedStace (Felinia 7): 😮💨 So it seems.]"Do you two have to flirt like that constantly?" Shalendra asked as she looked over her shoulder at them.
