Chapter 347. Sneaky Schemes
"Brother Myne, you wouldn't leave me alone with Sis and Mother, right?" Ayri gripped Myne's hand tightly, her voice barely a whisper as they approached her parents' bedroom.
Myne glanced at Sylphy, who walked ahead of them and slowed his pace. He offered a reassuring smile. "Of course not, sweety. And you are worrying for nothing. Mother-in-law is a very kind-hearted woman. How could she scold a little fairy like you?
She'll probably say a few words to you with a fake angry face, and that's it."
Ayri shook her head with a helpless sigh. "Brother Myne, you're too naive. You only know what Mother wants you to know. Don't underestimate her anger. When she's mad, even Father has to run for cover, let alone me. But you're new to the family, so she's trying to maintain her image of a kind-hearted, easy-going mother-in-law in front of you.
This is also the reason why I desperately request you to come with me. Otherwise, with Sis fueling the fire, my chance of getting beaten is frighteningly high," Finished speaking she tremble and touched her small butt with fear in her eyes, as if remembering some unpleasant memory.
Seeing Ayri's reaction, Myne, who always had a positive impression of his mother-in-law and had already prepared a draft of making his cheap father-in-law wear a green hat, started thinking about the consequences of his actions. If she truly was as dangerous as Ayri claimed, then it is better to maintain a bit of distance from her.
Otherwise, once he crosses the boundary, there will be no path to retreating.
"Regardless, I'll do my best to protect you today. What you did wasn't much of a big deal. But we just worry that if you continue learning those things, someone might soon take advantage of you, or you might dig a hole for yourself. That's why Sylphy reacted so strongly... Okay, now, cheer up and don't make such a depressed face. And you might be forgetting something.
You are not an ordinary child; Mother-in-law couldn't easily beat you. After all, you are ill and spend most of your time in your room. It was clearly your maid's fault that she taught you that stuff," Myne said with a wink, patting Ayri's head to comfort her.
"Sigh, Brother Myne, it is not me but you have forgotten something, do you remember about magic water you gave me? As long as I drink it twice a day, I'm no different from a normal healthy girl.
Many healers and doctors have examined me and concluded that my illness is completely cured, although their faces were quite wonderful when they said that because before this they had guaranteed Father that nothing could cure me. Anyway, so there is no way this excuse is going to work," Ayri said helplessly while looking at her parents' bedroom door which was getting closer and closer.
She already imagined herself lying on her mother's lap and getting a lot of tight spanks on her poor little butt.
Before this, when she was a child, she used to laugh at her Rector, who occasionally received spanks on his butt from his mother, Mavise, the second queen. Since she was always sick, she got away with everything, until one day, when she while playing with Rector, literally burned down the entire kitchen as well as 30 servants, if soldiers hadn't reacted on time.
That day she saw her mother's angry face for the first time, as well as what it felt like to get spanked on the butt. That was literally a nightmare, the worst day of her life.
While Myne and Ayri were lost in their own thoughts, Sylphy, walking silently in front of them at Myne's request, suddenly stopped and turned to face both brother and sister, who were holding hands with expressions as though they were headed for execution.
"Lord Husband," Sylphy began, her voice deadly serious, "Though I understand your good intentions of not wanting to see your little sister punished, but if possible, please do not interfere too much in this matter. She made a mistake, and she will be punished. There is nothing more to discuss. As Ayri said, Mother can tolerate many things, but some are out of the question.
If you wish to avoid getting dragged into muddy waters as well, I suggest you think seriously before opening your mouth. Do you understand?"
"I understand completely. You can rest assured, honey," Myne replied with a smile, placing a hand over Ayri's mouth to prevent her from further irritating Sylphy.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"Don't worry, I already have a plan. There is no need to mess with Sylphy further," Myne whispered in Ayri's ear, finally calming her down.
"Now, would you mind telling me why on earth you waited until night to come here, and even then used invisibility skills on us? It felt like we were trying to rob our own palace and the effect is also quite good, damn it, I have to talk about it to Father," Sylphy asked irritably.
According to her original plan, she should have quickly finished Ayri's matter and enjoyed the rest of the day and night having sex with Myne.
After all, this was the reason she had obtained special permission from Aisha. But who would have thought that not only did Aisha not play her cards accordingly, but even her stupid Lord Husband had weird things going on in his mind.
Those two bastards are so mean! Not only did they not care that there were children in the house, but they also ignored me when I knocked on the door. They locked themselves in the room all day, f*cking each other like anime and making loud noises.
Yes, I request Aisha to be alone with him for the entire night tonight, but that doesn't mean she can f*ck with him all day and then he takes me to work at night. I want to relieve my pressure too! Sylphy thought tears welling up in her eyes that quickly turned to anger. She decided that after Ayri's matter was settled, she would drag Myne to her room and not let him leave for the next few days.
Damn everyone else.
Myne, who was about to reveal his secret plan to scare the hell out of all the men in Sylphy's family with the help of his mother-in-law, suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He looked around but couldn't identify the source.
Forget it, maybe I'm just overthinking. It's normal for the night to be cold. It seems like winter is coming early this time, Myne thought, shaking his head. But if he knew that he wasn't overthinking and this was a warning before the storm, he might definitely feel sorry for his poor back.
"I'll tell you about my plan later. We're still missing an important member of our team. For now, let's deal with Ayri's matter before Father-in-law comes out of his study and complicates everything. Ayri certainly doesn't want to be scolded by him as well, right?" Myne said with a mysterious smile, looking at Ayri beside him, who nodded quickly like a frightened chicken.
Sylphy clearly wasn't convinced by Myne's nonsense, but when he grabbed her hand and whispered a certain promise in her ear, she immediately blushed hard and nodded like a newlywed, kind-hearted little wife.
...
Knock-knock.
Ssssh!
"What are you doing? Do you want to let the entire palace know that there are ghosts running around?!" Myne hissed, quickly stopping Sylphy from knocking on the door. He pointed at a confused maid sitting beside the door, who was looking around, wondering where this knocking sound came from.
"Sorry, I forgot we're invisible and sneaking around our own house like thieves," Sylphy said unhappily, folding her arms across her perfectly sized breasts.
"Sigh, honey, it's not good to be angry all the time," Myne said helplessly, shrugging his shoulders. "I once heard from a certain big sister that girls who easily get angry and don't sleep enough age very quickly. By their thirties, they look like aunties. You surely don't want to get older so soon, right?"
"Wha..."
Ssssh!
"Don't scream. You are really hopeless," Myne whispered tiredly, covering Sylphy's big mouth and gesturing to Ayri to do what he had instructed earlier.
Ayri nodded and continued walking forward in the hallway. She soon passed the maid and reached the stairs. Taking out a small mirror, she threw it hard on the ground.
CRASH!
"Ahhhh!"
The poor maid, already suspicious of a ghost's presence, jumped in fear with a loud scream upon hearing the sudden sound of breaking glass in the silent hallway. She clutched her a little too well-developed E-Cup size chest tightly while taking deep breaths.
After a few seconds, she swallowed her saliva with difficulty, turned around, and slowly walked toward the direction where Ayri was waiting for her.
Reaching the spot, she saw a small broken pocket mirror on the ground. She looked around left and right, the entire hallway eerily empty due to it being dinner time, with most servants and guards on break. After cursing her bad luck, she reached out with trembling hands and was about to touch the mirror when suddenly she felt a small hand on her shoulder.
The poor maid's eyes widened in terror, she suddenly saw her own soul leaving her body and waving goodbye at her. She was scared to the point that she couldn't even let out a scream. But having no other choice, she mumbled every god's name she could think of, and like a robot, she very slowly turned her head.
But when she saw a horrific, scary, smiling face covered in a very bright light right on her shoulder, her body shook. Her eyes rolled back in her sockets, and she fainted without a sound.
