I Became Cinderella’s Vicious Stepsister: 41

Gaia picked her up, with one hand supporting her back and the other hand on her knee, and hurriedly walked out.

“You, stop!”

The young man’s footsteps stepped on the ground in the woods, and the dry leaves made a rustling sound, but his speed did not slow down at all.

“Gaia! We can’t go and see!”

Liu Yu really wanted to cover her face this time.

“Why not?”

“B-because it hurts there…”

Liu Yu was not bold enough to see a doctor for this problem, and she slapped him, “Just rest for a few days.”

“There’s a female physician.” Gaia hugged her a bit tighter to prevent her from slipping, “Don’t move, it’s nothing. Senior Ais also took her lover to see the doctor last time.”

…she forgot, this is such a liberal Western world.

…and forgot even more, that even though most of the time Gaia is reasonable, there are certain times when he is stubborn and gives people headaches.

In the end, Liu Yu was still taken to the infirmary set up in the academy.

After the stern-looking female physician checked everything, she glared at Gaia:

“Mr. Leslie, you’re too rough!”

Dear Mr. Leslie was rarely embarrassed, and his face turned red.

He hung his head obediently and listened to the reprimand. The female physician gave Liu Yu a tube of medicine and instructed her to apply it morning and night. She also told her not to exert herself too much recently and to temporarily put aside intense activities like horse riding and fencing. Finally, she warned the two of them:

“…In a week, no, ten days. Damn it, you people have no sense of proportion… Wait, wait, dear sweetheart, eat this first.”

The female physician handed her a leaf-shaped pill, which was produced in the Elven Continent and was called “Duo’er Leaf”. Liu Yu had seen Lady Fergus eat it several times.

Duo’er Leaf, in other words, a short-term contraceptive.

She silently took it and chewed it up.

“Alright, you guys can leave now! The next time I see you, I’ll definitely take a long-handled hammer and smash your heads, especially you, Mr. Leslie! Look at Xiao Tianxin’s hands and feet, Mr. Leslie, even if you want to play around, please consider your adorable lover a little bit.”

“Yes.”

Gaia did not argue.

He was very cooperative throughout the medical examination and was extremely quiet. Liu Yu knew that all his tenderness was fake. It was due to his innate grace, something like a “bring about your own misfortunes” attitude.

He had no feelings for her, and even if he did, they were barely there. And this tiny bit of feeling stemmed from “gratitude for saving his life” and “fleeting affection”.

What she needed to do now was to gradually accumulate this tiny bit of feeling, so that when he recovered his memory, she would not be overwhelmed by the god’s sudden anger.

Gaia once again held Liu Yu securely in his arms.

“I’m sorry, Bella.”

He said softly.

Liu Yu wrapped her arms around his neck:

“No, Gaia, it was my own choice… Will you still take care of me in the future, Gaia?”

Her voice was low, as if it had fallen into the dust.

“…Yes, I will.”

After speaking, Gaia closed his mouth tightly.

For a while, the air fell into silence.

After such an incident, they could no longer interact naturally as they did before, but they couldn’t take it any further either, so awkwardness arose.

Of course, Liu Yu’s awkwardness lasted only for a while.

She remembered a sentence she had previously ignored:

“Gaia, you just said ‘Senior Ais took her lover to see the doctor’, ‘took’, does that mean you admit that I am your lover too?”

“…”

Gaia refused to answer.

When they arrived at the girls’ dormitory, most people had already left.

“Mr. Leslie, you have to hurry!”

The dormitory monitor apparently had a good impression of Gaia and spoke warmly, “The first class, Divine Magic, is very important. They’ve already rushed to the temple.”

Gaia put down the lightweight girl in his arms and asked the dormitory monitor to accompany her inside while he waited outside.

“Okay! Miss Fergus is in my hands.”

Liu Yu turned around and stepped over the threshold with the support of the dormitory monitor. At this moment, Gaia suddenly called out to her and handed her something:

“Bella, you forgot to take this with you.”

It was a cold, thumb-sized object.

Liu Yu looked down at it, and her heart skipped a beat:

This was the bottle she used to store the mixed blood medicine.

Gaia had picked it up a long time ago, but he was only returning it to her now.

Did he smell the blood in the bottle?

Does he…trust her?

Chapter 17

Looking at the bottle in her hand, countless thoughts flashed through Liu Yu’s mind, and in the end, they split into two factions.

A small voice told her to admit everything, maybe he won’t care about all the scheming and deception.

But your connection with him, your future, will also end here.

The other voice kept tempting her: Don’t you want to climb to a higher position? Don’t you want to live a long and carefree life without someone holding onto the pulse of your destiny?

Seize him, this is your only opportunity to change your fate.

One hundred points, or zero points.

Liu Yu once again easily convinced herself.

She exclaimed in surprise:

“Oh, Gaia, how did it end up with you? This was given to me by my mother before I left, she said it would protect me!”

Deny it?

Naturally not.

Gaia is not Louis, he doesn’t know how to play with words, if he said it’s hers, then he must have confirmed the fact.
