Lucien did not know what to say. He just wanted to play a joke, but the joke poked the softest and the most painful part of Natasha's heart. He wanted to comfort Natasha, but he did not know how.
Seeing Lucien's embarrassed look, Natasha bit her lips lightly and said, ”It's okay, Lucien. No matter what happened, it's a part of me. I always try to appreciate it and learn my lesson out of it. That's my attitude. Don't worry, Lucien. I'll never blame you for saying something you never really mean to say.”
”Well… If so, let me be honest, Natasha,” said Lucien in a pretended serious way. ”The only thing that I learn from memory and history is that... we can learn nothing.”
Natasha first paused a second and then burst out laughing with Lucien. She was laughing so hard that she even could not keep her back straight like a knight, like a flourishing violet.
”Maybe what you said is true. Next time when I meet my love, I'll still give her all I have,” said Natasha in a bit coarse voice from the good laugh. ”I learn nothing.”
”Good luck, Your Majesty. Hope you can meet a great lady and have a really good relationship soon,” said Lucien sincerely.
”Soon?” Natasha lifted her good-looking brows and said, ”Am I that kind of person who can just quickly forget her love and past? Come on… I'm not!”
Although she looked angry, Lucien could tell that Natasha now felt much better by letting out the sorrow that she could not share with other people.
”Umm… You're not that kind of person. Then, can I say you do not have much relationship experience yourself? You've been telling me that you can teach me, but now I highly doubt it.” Lucien grinned.
”Better than yours.” Natasha quickly talked back, ”Also, let me remind you, if you didn't notice—I'm also a lady, and at least I've experienced a complete relationship. In front of you, I'm still qualified as a teacher to tell you how to pursue a girl. You haven't even touched a girl's hand!”
Lucien shrugged his shoulders, ”Don't keep mentioning this…”
”Okay, another topic then. Your first kiss is still there, right?” Natasha put on a sneaky smile, ”What a pity… Girls' lips are…”
”Hey… Don't act like a pervert, ok?” Lucien rolled his eyes.
Natasha clapped her hands and laughed, ”Just admit it, Lucien, you innocent little boy. Admit that I've got enough to teach you about these things!”
”Okay, okay… You win.” Lucien put up both of his hands.
The princess smirked, like a flower. Then she looked at Lucien and said in a gentle tone, ”Thank you, Lucien.”
”I'm your friend.” Lucien nodded to Natasha, smiling.
”Good laugh always reminds me of the fact that losing love doesn't mean the end of my life,” said Natasha. ”I still have my father, my relatives, aunt Camil, and you, my friend. I can overcome this,” said Natasha. ”And then I'll introduce you to a good lady.”
”Let me handle this on my own…” Lucien shook his head and smiled.
Natasha now got a bit more serious and started to tell Lucien how his family was doing, ”After awakening his Blessing, John has become a knight and given the title as a Lord. Like his teacher, Venn, John serves my family, the Violet. Now he has his own land and a garden villa.”
Lucien grinned. He truly felt happy for his friend.
”You uncle and aunt Alisa have been learning noble manners in these years to help John around and reach out to other nobles.” Natasha continued, ”Although they were often looked down upon by other nobles, for their son, they finally did it. Now your uncle Joel, known as 'the Eight-fingered Harpist', has gained some reputation among nobles. But I guess that, among the nobles, your uncle could only feel really happy when he plays music…”
”Good for them!” There was nothing better than seeing that all his relatives and friends were also striving for their better life like Lucien himself.
