Chapter 26: This Can Also Be Related to Me?
Pure white gauze curtains swayed gently in the wind, with several pots of blooming white roses on the windowsill.
A violin lay beside the bed, its bow tied with a light blue ribbon.
Adelina sprawled on the bed, her body sinking into the soft mattress, her rose-tea colored long hair scattered on pink sheets, shimmering with gentle luster in the sunlight.
Communication spell seals on the desk continuously transmitted files, sending the latest school celebration activity guidelines.
She had been closing her eyes lately and thinking about what Feilin said to Adelina at the banquet.
Thinking about the music playing at the banquet, the scents at the banquet, Feilin’s serious expression, gentle tone, and those eyes looking at her…
‘In my heart, you’re already number one in the world.’
“Ahhh!”
Adelina buried her head in the pillow, her legs wrapped in white silk with incredible flesh appeal kicking the bed continuously.
Too embarrassing.
It was clearly just someone acting according to contract—why did that guy have to say such things on his own!
Actually, actually even saying something like already being number one in your heart.
Who cares!
This wave—Adelina’s psychology and body weren’t cooperating well.
Her ears were red as if about to drip blood, her heartbeat already fast enough to jump out of her chest.
“Ahh enough enough!” She vigorously shook her head, wanting to shake all these images out.
But that sentence was like a brand, impossible to shake off no matter what.
The pillow had already been squeezed out of shape by her.
“Do you like me that much?”
Adelina pouted and said quietly.
She had achieved great victory at the banquet.
Feilin really chose her in front of Vilordi.
Before Adelina, he once again expressed his passionate heart hidden beneath the contract.
Speaking of contracts, Adelina remembered her contract with Feilin seemed to be expiring soon.
No matter—she’d just renew it then. She wanted to use this opportunity to properly torture Vilordi in her heart.
“Buzz, buzz.”
The communication spell seal’s vibration startled Adelina.
“President, all information about the school celebration activities has been transmitted.”
“Got it. Thank you for your hard work.”
Adelina’s voice returned to a gentle tone.
Rancher Academy’s centennial celebration was about to be held.
The neighboring St. Andrews Academy’s centennial celebration happened to be on the same day.
The principals of both sides had a cheerful chat, got heated in their discussion, and decided why not hold it together—that would be lively.
This matter was decided just like that.
But it was hard on the teachers and student council responsible for coordination, who had already cursed them both as evil gods behind their backs.
Adelina had been busy with this for two days.
A bunch of noble young masters and ladies gathering together really wasn’t much fun.
Though it was being held jointly with St. Andrews Academy where Feilin was, given Feilin’s current civilian status, she couldn’t very well spend the entire school celebration with him in front of so many people.
“Oh right, President, there are some new requirements. The principal said this centennial celebration should demonstrate the school’s fair environment, so…”
Adelina’s head started hurting again.
Was that principal going to mess around again?
Every time he insisted on adding some inexplicable requirements that made her very busy.
Why not just have the Claude family stop funding him!
“So the principal said to encourage nobles and civilians to participate in school celebration activities together.”
The spell seal transmitted a very troubled voice.
“The principal also said he hopes the student council can take the lead… actively finding a civilian as a partner…”
!
Adelina’s blue-gray pupils instantly dilated.
Next year she’d fund the principal another ten million crowns.
Actively finding a civilian as a partner—wasn’t that specifically referring to Feilin!
No wait!
Why was she so excited?
Adelina snapped back to reality and patted her cheeks.
“President?! Such requirements are indeed very difficult. After all, asking you to contact a civilian… I’ll tell the principal to cancel this suggestion.”
Hearing Adelina fall silent, the other party thought she was resistant to this matter.
“Don’t! Ahem, I mean, no need.”
Adelina realized her reaction was a bit too intense.
“Isn’t this exactly an opportunity to demonstrate Rancher Academy’s educational philosophy? Academically, nobles and civilians should have equal opportunities. Our student council should also set an example in this regard.”
“Then what the President means is…”
“Let’s follow the principal’s wishes. But even for our student council members, we can’t force them to find civilian partners—we must respect everyone’s wishes. I’ll revise the plan content.”
After politely saying goodbye to the other party, Adelina jumped up from bed and came to her desk.
The communication spell seal contained long lists of hosting guidelines and plans.
Adelina indeed saw instructions about encouraging nobles and civilians to partner together for school celebration activities.
Usually, such activities had nobles and civilians playing separately.
Now the principal probably wanted to change this situation too.
Adelina felt there was no difference between civilians or nobles.
Rather, there were more idiots among the nobles.
But after all, she represented the Claude family, so her every word and action was watched.
If she got too close to Feilin, people would inevitably gossip.
But now, Adelina approaching Feilin was for a righteous cause, to implement the academy’s educational philosophy—definitely not because she herself wanted to…
Feilin definitely wanted to be with her!
She was truly kind, a good boss who thought of her employees!
Adelina continued reading and saw the registration conditions for civilian students participating in activities.
Just ordinary requirements for academic excellence, plus requiring at least passing grades on joint exams.
These requirements weren’t high—after all, civilian students who could enter Rancher and St. Andrews Academies were all extremely excellent students.
Wait.
There seemed to be one exception.
