"Oops—" Steele snorted suddenly, frowning slightly.

Lis, who was helping Steele prepare for bedtime, immediately asked with concern, "What's wrong, ma'am?"

Steele smiled and shook his head: "It's okay, it's just that this little guy kicked me again." ”

Lisi pursed her lips and smiled: "It seems that the young master's personality is much more naughty than the master, and he likes to make trouble in his stomach when he has nothing to do." ”

Steele shook his head slightly: "It doesn't have to be a boy, in fact, relatively speaking, I prefer a daughter." ”

"But my daughter can't inherit the family business. The master now not only has a knighthood, but also has such a big family business as the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, don't you want to give birth to a son to inherit it?"

Steele frowned and glanced at Lis, intent to refute her, but knew that Liz was right.

Although there are many women on the continent of Sainz who inherit the family business, and even a queen appears, traditionally speaking, the call for boys to inherit the family business is relatively high.

Otherwise, His Royal Highness Prince Eric would not have a much higher approval rating than Her Royal Highness Princess Sevigny among the great nobles who value tradition in the Lampari Kingdom.

"Okay, Xu Yi has always said that he also likes girls more, even if he gives birth to a daughter, he will definitely be very happy. Steele touched his belly and comforted himself.

Perhaps because he felt his mother's touch, the child in his belly once again made a fuss, causing Steele to frown deeply.

"This little one...... There's still more than two months left, and he can't wait to come out?" Steele couldn't help but laugh and thought for a moment. Just stand up. "Forget it. Liz. Let's go walk two laps so he can stop. ”

"Okay, let the little master go for a walk. Lisi smiled and picked up Steele and walked out the door.

After Xu Yi left, Nuoda's Falling Star Manor was much more deserted than usual because of the lack of a male host, and then Linda was sent away by Steele, and the Falling Star Manor was even more deserted. It's late at night, and even if Vivien and Teresa are added to the entire manor, there are only four people, so it naturally seems extremely quiet.

However, Steele originally liked this kind of peaceful environment, and she didn't like the existence of outsiders very much, so she always disagreed with Xu Yi's idea of hiring some other servants.

Glancing at Lisi beside him, Steele thought to himself that although Lisi was a female slave brought back by Xu Yi from the Duchy of Stantin, Xu Yi had never regarded her and Linda as slaves, and regarded them as family members like Vivian.

Now that we've been together for a long time, Steele is used to their savings. They are also treated as family.

Thinking of Linda, Steele suddenly asked Lis, "Lis." I sent Linda over this time, but I kept you, do you hate me in your heart?"

Lisi originally had a smile on her face, but when she heard Steele's question, she was suddenly startled, and her face was full of shock, and she shook her head again and again: "Madam, how can I hate you? Don't get me wrong, I absolutely not!

Seeing Lis's eager look, Steele smiled and patted her hand holding him, and comforted: "Don't be nervous, I didn't mean that, I just wanted to ask you, are you a little dissatisfied that you didn't go with Linda to serve Xu Yi this time?" ”

Seeing Steele's serious expression, Lisi hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Hmm...... I envy Linda. She was able to serve her master and be by her side all the time...... Ah, no, ma'am, I don't have a problem with serving you, and I love to be there for you......"

"It's okay, you like to serve Xu Yi, that's as it should be, after all, he is your master. Steele laughed.

"Hmm...... Actually, I envy Linda, mainly because ...... Mainly because of ...... The master is alone these days, and when he is lonely at night, Linda can accompany him......" Lisi Qiao blushed slightly, lowered her head and said softly.

Steele smiled slightly: "You don't have to be so envious. I don't know if Xu Yi, the wood, can understand Linda's intentions and accept her. ”

Hearing this, Lisi couldn't help but raise her head and said to Steele with a wry smile: "Madam...... Let's be honest, don't be offended. ”

"Say, what do I have to be angry about. ”

Lisi paused and said: "Actually, many times I am very strange, the master is really slow in this regard, how did you ...... with him at that time?" Of course, you're the prettiest woman I've ever seen, but I don't think the master seems to care much about that. ”

"You're right. Steele nodded. "Xu Yi, this wood, is really dull in this regard. I was able to be with him probably only because the two of us had more contact with him at the beginning, so I guess I knew him before anyone else. If it were fair play now, maybe Evita would have a better chance. ”

"Dean Evita?" Lisy thought for a moment, frowning. "Madam, since you are worried about Dean Evita, why don't you let the master have less contact with her?"

"This kind of thing, the more deliberately restricted, the more likely it is to have the opposite effect. And Xu Yi and Evita are discussing normal work together, how can I limit it?" Steele shook his head. "Xu Yi definitely doesn't like my stingy approach, I think the reason why I was liked by him in the first place is that my personality should be the most important. So I always remind myself not to become annoying to him. ”

Lisi sighed: "Madam, it seems that you really love your master, and you care so much about his opinion. ”

"Tell me as if you don't care. Steele pinched Lis's face, felt the smoothness of his fingers, and thought that Liz and Linda were actually two or three years younger than her, and couldn't help but sigh: "Although I think I look good, people will grow old after all." Xu also said that he cares most about a person's personality, not their appearance. So I hope to be able to keep impressing him with that. As for appearance, leave it to a little girl like you and Linda to satisfy him. ”

Lisi's pretty face flushed again, but she couldn't help frowning: "But the master's appearance and ...... for us I've never cared much about my body. ”

Steele smiled, "Don't worry, he doesn't matter how wooden." He's a normal man after all, isn't he? It's obvious proof, isn't it? Linda has been with him all the way. I think he'll be able to hold back after all. When he and Linda come back together, I'll find a chance for him to be alone with you. As for whether you can seize the opportunity at that time, it is up to you. ”

Lisi's face suddenly showed surprise: "Really, thank you so much, madam!"

Seeing Lis's joyful face, Steele shook his head slightly.

Although on the surface Steele is extremely generous, as a woman, how could she not care at all about her husband being with other women?

It's just that Steele knows better that with Xu Yi's current status, the temptations he faces are endless. No matter how strong his self-control is, no matter how good his mind is, there will always be a day when he can't stick to it.

Rather than that, it's better to let go of these thoughts.

At the very least, if Lisi and Linda are with Xu Yi, Steele won't find it difficult to accept.

The two chatted about what was happening with Xu Yi and Linda at the moment, while wandering around the manor.

After walking for about ten minutes, he had already turned more than half of the Falling Star Manor and came to the vicinity of Xu Yi's study.

Seeing the door of the study in front of him, Steele remembered that Xu Yi usually worked no matter how busy he was. In the evening, they will return to the Falling Star Manor and work in this study for a while. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, thought about it, and motioned Lisi to open the door of the study and walked in.

The magic lamp illuminates the study, and Steele looks left and right, and sits down behind the desk in the middle of the study.

Thinking that Xu Yi usually sits on this chair at night and works with all his heart, Steele suddenly couldn't help but have a strong longing for Xu Yi in his heart, and couldn't help lying on the desk, trying to feel the warmth of Xu Yi when he was usually at home from the desktop.

However, as soon as he climbed onto the table, Steele frowned, a look of surprise on his face.

"Madam, what's wrong?" Seeing the strange look on Steele's face, Lisi hurriedly asked.

Steele waved his hand, but took his arm away, and let him stick his face directly on the desk, and even moved back and forth for some distance.

Seeing Steele's movements, Lisi looked inexplicable.

However, she knew very well that her lady would never do such a boring thing, so there must be a reason for it.

Steele pressed his face against his desk, as if he was deep in thought, thinking about something.

After a while, Steele raised his head, took a closer look at the desk, flipped through the books and other books on the desk, and bent down with difficulty to observe the environment under the desk, and at the same time opened the drawer of the desk and carefully examined it.

Liz was a little strange, Steele's series of actions were almost like a thief in this study.

However, although this Falling Star Manor seems to have no guards and lax defenses, the owner of the manor, Xu Yi, and the hostess Steele are both extremely high-level magicians, and Stil's grandfather is a powerful magician, so there are actually many complex magic array traps arranged around the Falling Star Manor, and it is impossible for any thief to break in lightly.

After inspecting the surroundings of his desk, Steele went to the bookcase against the wall on the other side of the study, and his gaze swept over to a grid in the middle of the bookcase.

Instead of opening the window, Steele stretched out a finger and pressed it on, and the magic in his body flowed, and he leaned towards the bookcase.

A moment later, a little pale blue light lit up on the window.

At first, this pale blue light was still very stable, like a small lamp dotted on the shop window, but when Steele continued to maintain the mana input for a while, this pale blue light gradually began to become unstable, and finally flickered continuously for a while, and then disappeared abruptly.

Steele opened the window and looked at the small magic circle that connected the window, and his pretty face became gloomy.

All the discoveries proved one thing, someone had snuck into this study.

However, this man ...... Who could it be? (To be continued......)
