Chapter 232: Dai Yingjun
"Tuk Tuk~"
In the early morning, Harvey was woken up by a simple and brisk knock on the door, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Diana, whose hair was disheveled, sleeping on his arm. Diana's schedule is very regular, usually at this time should have changed her clothes, washed up and finished reading this morning's morning newspaper in the restaurant, thinking that last night was really tired.
Harvey carefully removed his arm, put a pillow on her, opened the door after getting dressed, the maid Shirley was standing by the door, and saw Harvey open the door and showed a quiet and somewhat inexplicable shy chuckle: "Master, breakfast is ready." ”
Shirley used to reach out and help Harvey tie his tie and turn over his collar until she was satisfied with the neat and tidy image.
"How's it going in the bathroom?" Harvey asked casually, the bathroom is not far from the kitchen, if it was the breakfast prepared by Shirley, the abnormality of the bathroom should have been discovered, and Harvey also told her what happened to Lily in the dream last night.
"It looks like it's stabilised."
"Don't wake Diana, you and Nia eat first, I'll go see Lily." Harvey hurried downstairs, and as soon as he opened the bathroom door, he knew what Shirley was saying was stable.
Lily had woken up, sitting in the bathtub full of water, with a wooden board in front of her, on which were some snacks and fruits, she was holding half a fruit similar to dragon fruit in one hand, and she took a big bite without peeling off the skin, and her small mouth was covered with sweet red fruit juice, and the fruits and snacks should have been prepared for her by Shirley.
Harvey was stunned, Lily shouldn't like to eat human food very much, the fruit is fine, and the cookies placed in front of her seem to have been passive, the cookies that Harvey fed her in the past were all treated with throwing and spitting.
"Leigh... Leigh? As soon as Harvey called Lily's name, he suddenly noticed that the original slender and beautiful blue fishtail was gone, replaced by white slender legs, and from the outside, Lily was no different from an ordinary little girl except for the satin-like blue hair.
"Humanization..." Harvey recalled the message that the Bleak Abyss had sent to him yesterday, that Lily had absorbed those strange powers and had grown, and that it was entirely her own will to become what she wanted to become, and now that her tail had disappeared into human legs, it was not difficult to guess Lily's thoughts.
Lily is half Siren, half human, and has grown in the direction of humans under Harvey's influence.
The Diamond Leprechaun was asleep in the corner of the bathtub, but Lily smiled brightly when she saw Harvey come in, holding the fruit in her hands as if asking Harvey if he wanted to eat it together.
Harvey came to Lily, took the fruit, peeled it off, and fed it to her: "Has your height changed too?" ”
If Lily used to be only a nine- or ten-year-old girl, but now she is about ten or eleven years old, such a physical change is still very obvious.
Lily's eyes lit up, and her little hand just wanted to take the fruit and suddenly remembered something, and looked at her hands hesitantly, she had received Diana's etiquette education some time ago.
"Hmm~~"
The little guy couldn't stand the sweet temptation of the fruit, and stretched out his little head to gnaw the flesh contentedly, and the fruit with the skin removed tasted better and sweeter, and the little guy's eyes looked more satisfied.
Harvey pointed at himself, and said in a long and tentative voice: "Ha~~Wei~~ Read it with me, Ha~~Wei~"
"Yayaha~~ Hey!" Lily struggled to mutter these few simple syllables, her crisp voice clear and pleasant.
"Haha, it's a lot of progress compared to before." Harvey was so satisfied that he finally experienced what it was like to be a father.
While Harvey and Lily were playing, Diana came behind Harvey and saw Lily's legs and asked, "Isn't Lily a mermaid?" ”
Diana changed into a home dress, the elegant white dress is not as complicated as an ordinary dress, most of the dresses of women in this era have their own skirts, the cheap ones will use metal, the more expensive ones use natural hardwood, and the size of the skirts largely represents the magnificence of the long skirt of the dress. Diana was a disliked wearing such gowns with skirts, and she didn't like clothes that accentuated her body, despite the fashion.
The clothes she is wearing now are Harvey's reference to modern clothing design and then made in the alchemy workshop, which just highlights the curves of the body without being too kitsch, giving people a dignified and simple and light feeling.
In addition, the same is true for underwear, there is no concept of underwear at all in this era, and women wear white obscene pants at most. In the face of modern design underwear, Diana was still a little restrained and uncomfortable at first, looking at Harvey's eyes a little more weird, her good-looking husband actually had an unknown side, after a period of time, she tactfully hinted to her husband to make a few more sets.
Harvey turned his head to look at Diana, compared to when she was not married, Diana's expression is much softer now, and the spikes on her body are no longer merciless.
"It's a mermaid, why don't you rest for a while? I'll take care of Lily. ”
It's okay not to mention it, but Diana got angry when she mentioned it, and crossed her waist and sneered sharply: "Is your so-called care just throwing Lily into the tank alone and letting the goblin take care of it?" Last night I experienced firsthand how well you cared for you! It's unbelievable that so much has happened that I can't find the slightest means to contact you. ”
Listening to the tone, you must be angry.
Harvey laughed dryly, not defending himself.
Diana saw Harvey's embarrassed face and did not continue to ridicule her husband, clasped her hands and muttered: "Anyway, prepare some clothes for children first." ”
Diana stared at Harvey, and the meaning was obvious.
"Alright, alright, it's all my fault, I'll go and prepare now." Harvey stood up and spread his hands, and said helplessly.
Diana's eyes narrowed, and her straight eyes were like knives on Harvey's neck: "Harvey, there are many places in you that I hate me, and the casual attitude of admitting mistakes is one of them, it's like saying that I'm right and being forced to admit my mistakes." Lily was brought back by you, if you don't want to raise it, put it back in its original place, otherwise please do your part. ”
The tone was cold, but Harvey was sure that it was a more serious emotion than anger.
Harvey was also a little annoyed by the lecture, and after thinking about it, Diana really didn't know the situation between herself and Lily, and explained euphemistically: "I'm sorry, but I also have my own considerations, and I expect everything you think of." ”
Diana looked at Harvey's cheek and bit her lower lip to swallow the mean words.
Harvey passed by Diana's side, but was suddenly pulled by Diana's collar and pressed to the wall, and without saying anything, he stood on tiptoe and kissed Harvey's lips, until his lips parted, and then said softly: "I know, even if we are husband and wife, there are things that I can't understand, I really shouldn't have said it so seriously just now, I apologize for this." I don't know anything, but if I can, I hope Harvey you can tell me more things, and I will do my best to fulfill this duty that should belong to my wife, just like that night, if you are killed by a demon, then I will help you avenge you even if I pay with my life..."
The crimson of Diana's delicate cheeks spread to the roots of her ears, and she looked up at Harvey with a twist of anxiety: "Go and prepare Lily's clothes." ”
Helen, the diamond fairy, was woken up by the sound of talking, and Lily watched Harvey and Diana talk, cowering timidly and not daring to say anything. Harvey's attitude towards Lily has always been free-range, and aside from the time Harvey spent studying alone in the alchemy workshop, Harvey and Lily may not have spent as much time together as Diana.
During this time, Diana, who could not find anything to do, simply taught Lily the habits and manners of human life wholeheartedly, and spent at least five or six hours a day together.
"Uh..." Harvey replied with a stiff expression, and when he came to the staircase, he couldn't help but hold down his chest that was beating wildly, and took a deep breath and said to himself: "Damn, how can you be so handsome." ”
For the first time, Harvey felt that he could apply the word handsome to a woman.
