I’m Really Not Trying to Be Chased by the Heroine as the Villainous Playboy! – Chapter 431

Chapter 138: Invitation for the Southern Trip

Leanna suddenly took away the plate, “Aha, a kid who isn’t honest skips breakfast!”

What even?! Is there no justice in this world?!

“Yummy! Yummy yummy yummy yummy!”

“That’s the spirit.”

Only then did Leanna show a satisfied expression and started feeding again.

Whatever, a good man doesn’t fight with a girl; a real man can bend and stretch. Temporarily living under someone else’s roof is just a phase. Anyway…

Today, I’ll let her have her way for one more day.

With that thought, the young boy allowed the girl to feed him, abandoning his plan to resist for today.

While feeding, Leanna also chatted about the Purple Magic Society and the Cassandra Family.

Although the society didn’t hold Lisa and others, who were controlled, accountable, the Purple Magic Society had taken a huge hit and was basically a shell of its former self. Most of its assets and resources had been confiscated to pay reparations.

It couldn’t be helped. Even if the root cause was the demon race invading and controlling the Purple Magic Society, the fact that numerous Purple Magicians colluded with cultists remained true.

Besides, there are always losers in battles. The society’s punishment was already quite restrained; if it were in the Second Era with those crazy magicians, we might have seen another round of the “Purple Magician Hunt.”

Currently, the Cassandra Family had little left besides the network they had built over time and a very few scarce industries.

At this point, Leanna couldn’t help but feel a bit sad: “Reclaiming the family means reclaiming just an empty shell.”

“I’m sure it’ll take a long time for the Cassandra Family to completely clear its name and return to its former glory.”

With her eyelashes lowered, the girl gazed into the void, as if reminiscing about the good old days, giving rise to a faint shadow.

Roy extended his hand to grasp Leanna’s.

Meeting the girl’s surprised gaze, Roy cheerfully said, “It’s okay, there are still chances.”

Family, reputation, the family legacy—the amount Leanna had sacrificed to reclaim what was rightfully hers was simply too much.

But at least she hadn’t faced the worst-end outcome; Leanna was safe and sound, her mother was still alive, and the family still had a shot at revival.

“And besides, I’m here too! If there’s anything I can help with, feel free to discuss it with me.”

Encouraged by the boy’s words, Leanna’s expression returned to a smile.

Her purple eyes flickered lightly, and the cunning girl pretended to ponder: “Speaking of help, I might actually need my junior’s assistance.”

“What kind of help? Tell me.”

Leanna leaned closer, mysteriously waving her hand to get Roy to come nearer.

But when Roy got close, he was greeted by a warm, lingering breath: “For example, giving the Cassandra Family an heir or something?”

Her words flowed like a gentle shock, causing Roy to tremble with an inexplicable rush of sensations.

Roy’s face flushed red, glancing back at her with an annoyed look.

He had just felt sorry for her moments ago.

This mischievous woman never joked around correctly!

“Apart from fooling around with your junior’s feelings, do you have anything else on your agenda?”

Leanna covered her mouth, feigning grievance, “Oh, that’s just cruel. I’m being serious.”

“But right now, compared to feelings, your junior’s health is way more important.”

That abrupt and suggestive comment made Roy hug himself tightly, raising his vigilance while Leanna found it utterly amusing.

“I meant your health issue.”

“The side effects of demigod power can’t just be healed by medicine or simply resting. How did you recover last time?”

Hearing they were talking business, Roy suddenly felt a bit shy.

It was all the senior’s fault for leading him astray!

But speaking of recovery, last time he had relied on Nia’s “Source of Commanding Wind” for targeted treatment, but that wouldn’t work against the sea emperor’s power.

Roy helplessly shrugged and explained his current situation to Leanna.

For some reason, Leanna seemed rather pleased: “So, you can’t do anything, huh?”

“If I could, I would’ve done it already! Why would I lie here for you to bully me?”

Leanna’s smile grew wider: “In that case, should we go on our honeymoon?”

“Huh?” Roy looked dumbfounded, failing to catch the drift.

It was only when Leanna repeated Lisa’s perspective that Roy finally understood her meaning.

After all, the only reason he was affected by the side effects of the demigod power was that as a human, he simply couldn’t fully accommodate the extraordinary power from another race. The demigod power was naturally restless, just like pets feeling uneasy in unfamiliar environments.

To soothe this restlessness, maybe he needed an environment similar to the demigod power’s attributes to feel that extraordinary aura, allowing the power to gradually calm down.

Besides, he couldn’t just keep lying here. Not to mention needing to attend classes—he could not let Charlotte and the others worry.

Roy rubbed his chin: “Going isn’t a problem, but before we leave, I need to see someone.”

If he was going on a long trip, he definitely had to notify the little maid.

Unexpectedly, Leanna clapped her hands, looking like she already knew: “Got it, I’ve already asked Kreya to bring her.”

“Counting the time, she should be here by now.”

As soon as her words fell, after a polite knock at the door, the golden-haired little maid was brought in by Kreya.

Just as expected of a senior—her arrangements were so thoughtful!

The little maid rushed up in a few steps, expressing her concern in a flurry of polite inquiries. Even though it was a bit trivial, it warmed Roy’s heart.

After a brief exchange with Alice, Roy immediately explained the situation regarding the Southern Sea Kingdom.

Alice seemed momentarily startled, then confirmed, “So, master is going away again?”

“Yeah, although it’s not a huge issue, dragging on the side effects isn’t good either.”

“But if you’re going far, do you need someone to take care of you?”

If needed, he’d just bring Alice along—

However, before he could voice that thought, the brown-haired girl cheerfully interjected, “It’s okay, I can take care of you by myself.”

“Oh right, Miss Alice, please don’t be shy, make yourself comfortable.”

Leanna stood up, offering her chair, and effortlessly sat down on Roy’s bed.

Watching this unfold, Alice’s eyes couldn’t help but twitch.
