Merica, however, didn't overthink it. Watching Luoqi engaging in conversation without any airs, all smiles and friendly, her admiration for the Princess only grew stronger.
Indeed, the Princess was quite exceptional...
It was as Merica was pondering this thought that the mansion's gates were opened.
"Ha~~~"
There, one could see Shane, with a dozing Lilith in one arm and a sleepy-eyed Ai Yi in tow, yawning widely himself as he appeared before everyone.
His sloppy, disheveled appearance made Merica's heart race slightly, and her pretty face blushed with shyness.
This was the reaction Merica always had whenever she saw Shane.
Shane didn't notice any of this and simply glanced at the crowd.
"Looks like everyone's here."
Shane had the look of someone who hadn't gotten enough sleep.
"Mr. Shane."
Lu Muya hurriedly greeted Shane.
"We've all been waiting for you for quite a while."
Vivian gently chided him, seemingly reminding Shane not to be too impolite in front of Luoqi.
