"I want to do it again next time."
"I want to be even more wrong, even more outrageous."
"Princess, could you give me a little more next time, just a tiny bit?" he pleaded with her.
Half is really too little.
He wanted more, and even more, maybe everything...
Shen Zhiyi lowered her eyelashes, her ears turning red.
"...It depends on your performance."
She let him be, clinging to her side in a sticky, affectionate way, and helplessly stroked his black hair.
A maid announced from outside the door.
"Princess, the Astoria family has sent someone to request an audience, saying they have come to offer an apology."
Shen Zhiyi's eyes narrowed.
"Tell them to wait in the main hall."
"yes."
The maid's voice faded into the distance.
Shen Zhiyi patted Samus, "Carry me to wash up."

Leo stood with his head bowed in the main hall, but his eyes lit up when he saw Shen Zhiyi enter.

They never expected that the eldest princess would actually have the power to cut off their business.
They never expected that she could actually strip the second princess of her talent!
Whether in royal power struggles or in terms of personal ability, she far surpasses Shen Xiya.
He is the rightful heir.
The Astoria family decided to defect.
He abandoned the Queen's allure of power and pledged allegiance to the true future ruler.
He raised his head, his eyes shining. "Father said that if the princess is willing, she can choose any member of the Astoria family to marry."
"The Astoria family will always stand behind the princess and be loyal to her."
