Inside the room,
Gwen, as if she had done something wrong, cautiously peeked at the furious Leah in front of her, somewhat at a loss for what to do.
Gwen is only ten years old now, a time when children are beginning to form their understanding of the world.
It's too early to tell how dashing and handsome he will be in the future.
After all, she had only been participating in knight training for two years.
Born into a knightly family, Gwen received a knightly education under the influence of her parents.
In addition, she was born with a strong sense of justice and aspired to become a knight from a young age.
Even as history and family circumstances changed, her aspiration remained unchanged.
Even though she was a knight, she didn't know how to appease a princess in this situation...
Although she has not yet become a true knight, Lia is not a true princess.
To be honest, Gwen still doesn't know the specific reason why Leah is angry.
She was initially very happy to hear from her father that Leah's family was coming to visit, as she was given a day to rest.
She tidied up her room early, changed into her favorite clothes, and looked forward to the pleasant time she would have with Lia.
However, as soon as the other party entered the door, they suddenly and inexplicably questioned him:
"Gwen, are you trying to steal my brother away?"
Gwen: "???"
To be honest, young Gwen was completely baffled when she heard this.
Her brother? Do you mean Viktor?
Gwen pondered for a long time, countless thoughts flashing through her mind.
She knew Viktor and had met him before.
The Delin and Clevina families have always had a good relationship, and the two families frequently visit each other.
She also went to Braxton with her father and met Victor at that time.
However, she didn't interact much with Victor; she usually played with Leah.
Gwen's impression of the boy, who was slightly older than her brother Jashy, was vague and hazy.
Her deepest impression of Victor was that he possessed exceptional magical talent, and almost every adult in the empire spoke highly of him.
Even his father would always praise Viktor endlessly, while his mother would always smile silently whenever she heard Viktor's name.
Even if they occasionally meet, or even exchange greetings,
Gwen, however, often sensed something from Viktor,
Hmm... I guess it's a sense of distance.
Despite being around the same age, Gwen always felt that Victor didn't seem to belong to their age group.
Viktor always exuded an extraordinary elegance and nobility.
When he was with her, he always showed exceptional gentleness and politeness.
Therefore, Gwen still has a rather favorable impression of Leah's brother, Victor.
But... how does this relate to her trying to steal Lia's brother?
Fortunately, after learning the specific reason why Lia was angry, she quickly reacted.
He looked up at Liya intently, his thoughts no longer in turmoil.
Then, she patiently explained to Leah:
"It's not what you think, Leah."
“I never intended to take your brother away.”
Hearing this, Leah gradually calmed down. She stared at Gwen with wide eyes, full of doubt.
After hesitating for a moment, Lia gently peeked out and asked cautiously:
"Really?"
Gwen nodded solemnly.
"But... they said you're going to get engaged to Viktor, and you'll get married when you grow up!"
"After we get married, you will become Viktor's wife!"
Now, it was Gwen who was confused.
She blinked, as if she had heard a completely new concept, and asked in confusion:
"wife?"
Forgive Gwen, she genuinely didn't know what 'wife' meant.
Born in northern Xinjiang, I have hardly ever seen any fairy tales growing up.
The cold of northern Xinjiang makes it impossible to sell storybooks here; at most, a few rhymes will be passed down by word of mouth.
She wasn't old enough to learn that kind of knowledge yet, so naturally she didn't have a rich vocabulary like Lia.
After all, Angus wouldn't call out to his wife when he came back—
'Wife, I'm home.'
Most people call their wives "wife" or "madam," and Angus was no exception.
He would occasionally refer to her as, "This is my wife," in public.
In particular, Gwen had always wanted to be a knight since she was a child, and she had little interest in the things that other girls her age were interested in.
Lia was getting anxious. Seeing that Gwen didn't seem to understand her meaning, she was about to explain.
But after much deliberation, she still couldn't come up with a concrete explanation for 'marriage' and 'husband and wife' in her mind.
Later, she came up with an explanation and said directly:
"Just like your dad and mom!"
Gwen seemed to understand this time, frowned, and muttered:
"Father and Mother?"
Of course she knew how much her father and mother loved each other.
This level of affection was evident in how Angus would send all the children away when he returned home.
They were left alone in the entire mansion.
Realizing this, Gwen's eyes widened in shock as she looked at Leah.
"Will I live with Viktor like my father and mother did in the future?"
Obviously, in this era, girls of this age are not usually so precocious.
In Gwen's eyes, the so-called marital relationship seemed to be nothing more than living together.
