The sun had been brilliantly shi+ning in the center of the sky when they first came to the official residence, but by the time they went outside, the sun had turned red and was on the verge of falling under the horizon Chi-Woo chuckled at the exhilaration of giving his brother a good punch Then soon, he stopped laughing and reflected on the old tiers just now If it was like any other expedition, his brother wouldn’t have gathered them like this The fact that his brother had personally delivered the news meant that this expedition was extreht be far more difficult than the Narsha Hara it ht, Ru Amuh came up to hi for hiht?”

While the two chatted, Chi-Woo had to stop again because soate—a princess with neatly combed, platinu her feet on the ground with her hands behind her, flinched as soon as she saw Chi-Woo When their eyes aze Then she looked down at the ground and hesitated for a while
Unlike Chi-Hyun, Chi-Woo did not act rudely and pass by so for hih to notice that Apoline had business with Chi-Woo, and he quickly excused hio ahead”
When only the two of them were left, Apoline finally opened herthe whole time and tilted her chin back “Why did you do that just now?”

“During thean invisible battle of nerves with his brother; however, he couldn’t say it out loud because it was e like this after becoht it was too much” Chi-Woo sression when there’s no har a simple question”
“Yes, that’s true He really was tooof his reputation” Apoline, who ht that Chi-Woo had stepped up for her, vehereed with him She was excited to think that Chi-Woo had taken her side However, when Chi-Woo stared at her, she quickly erased the smile off her face and schooled her expression into one of nonchalance
“Well, I just want to say…thank you”
“You don't have to thank me I just did it because that’s what I wanted to do” Chi-Woo said it without any thought, so he didn’t realize that his every as becorowing inside her head
“?!” She coughed and crossed her arms “B-But even then, I a toyou this because the Afriliths’ revenge is sharp like a blade, but their grace is deep like the ocean”
“…Ah, yes” Chi-Woo nodded since Apoline wanted to express her gratitude even after he said it was all right
Then a silence fell between the else to say ‘What should I do? I want to talk to hio on his way after saying, ‘Then I’ll be on ain, “D-Do you not have anything to say toto figure out what sheto her What did he do? After searching through his rily at her at the entrance of the official residence because he was angry at his brother; now that he reflected on his past reaction, he felt a little sorry He had taken his anger out on an innocent person, so from Apoline’s perspective, she otten very upset because he reacted like that when she was just trying to take care of hi?”
When Apoline asked once more in a sullen tone, Chi-Woo quietly said, “There is Have you eaten?”
Apoline blinked at the unexpected question She was so taken aback that she almost said ‘No’, but she shook her head
Chi-Woo asked, “Then, are you hungry?”
Apoline’s eyes widened “What?”
“Let’s eat together”
“Well…” Apoline gaped in surprise “All of a sudden? Without any warning?”
Chi-Woo tilted his head at her flustered reaction While she looked disgruntled, she didn’t seeestion He wasn’t sure if she wanted to eat with him or not
“You said you haven’t eaten yet”
“But even then—”
“Do you not want to?”
Apoline struggled to ood sense when Chi-Woo a question in quick succession “Uh…it’s…I ht be because of the sunset, but her face was red like ripe persied to answer and lowered her eyes and head again Then she muttered once more in a quiet voice, “Yes, I would like to”

She didn’t aze away from Chi-Woo, who told her to wait at the table and said he would soon come back with delicious food It felt like a situation when a boyfriend said ‘Do you want to coht?’ in a romantic atmosphere, but once they arrived at his house, he lay down next to where his whole fao to sleep
“Oh irl I saw before? Chi-Woo ht you here Come on in”
Evelyn ushered Apoline in and sat her along with everyone else at the table She still had a dazed look on her face

“Ten ht here The red, wide circle!”
“Ah, you ot it” While Chi-Woo racefully finished the rees were the best by far The crunchiness as she bit into it was heavenly! Everyone stared curiously at Apoline, as eating the kimchi pancakes with such appreciation
“You eat so well,” Byeok said Although Byeok was also a big-eater and didn’t usually lose to other people, it was the first tieration, Apoline was already eating her 23rd ki into that small stomach of yours?”
Apoline’s lower abdomen popped out; it was to the extent that it stood out even through her clothes However, her waist was still narrow, so she looked like she was pregnant “Oh, this?” Apoline gulped down a pancake and grinned, “It’s not a problem” Then she put her hand on her stomach and closed her eyes, and her rounded belly slowly shrunk and returned to its original state
Ru Hiana exclaimed, “Wo did you do that?”
“It’s my constitution I don’t think you’ll be able to copy it even if I teach you It’s a trait that our family has”
“I’m so jealous!”
“Haha Yeah, you can be as jealous as you want A certain amount of jealousy is completely fine with me” While Apoline covered her hed, Byeok, who had been tilting her head, exclaiht you seemed quite familiar A special bloodline like that—you must be a child of the Afrilith”
Apoline flinched
