Chapter 14

Childhood lacks will haunt people for a lifetime, not to mention that it is the most basic, important and purest maternal love that bathes a person’s growth.

Mirexia is like this. Since she was young, she has found herself different from her peers.

She has never seen the person who should be called ‘mother’ in her life.

When she saw other children being cared for and cared for in their mother’s arms, the pure and unadulterated maternal love made Mirexia feel an indescribable envy.

She has asked her father many times where her mother is and why she has never seen her.

At this time, her father would say that her mother has gone to a very far place to travel, and when she grows up, her mother will come back to see her.

After hearing this, little Mirexia was very happy.

She understood that her mother did not abandon her, and her mother loved her very much, but for some reason, the two of them could not meet for the time being.

When she grows up, her mother will see her.

With such a naive idea, Mirexia spent a relatively happy childhood with her playmates, until one day she learned that her mother was not traveling far away, but had died of dystocia when she was born.

Her father thought that she had grown up and could stand on her own, so it was time to tell her the truth, and told her that his true love in life was only her mother, and he did not intend to remarry, so she would definitely be the queen of the Camella Kingdom in the future.

After learning that her mother had passed away and that she would have to shoulder the fate of the entire kingdom in the future, carrying the expectations of thousands of people, the pain of grief and suffocation was like being suddenly torn open, the wound never healed, and the flesh and blood were stuck to the bandage, and the pain was unbearable.

Before she could grieve, the huge pressure on her shoulders made her breathless.

She could not imagine how much she would have to do in the future to live up to the expectations of the people.

There is no definite level in her heart. In order not to let her down, under the guidance of the court teacher, she has been learning how to be a good monarch day and night, helping to handle state affairs, and all her spare time has to be used to improve her magic soul.

Except for sleeping time, she has no time to rest, let alone play. The whole day is fully arranged.

This has also created Mirexia’s precocious mentality, but this is not a good thing.

Every age has what it should do. When other noble girls and their playmates have tea parties and play house, and even talk about love, Mirexia is either in boring learning training or working overtime.

Except for the time when she was not sensible and often played with Winnie, her youth was buried in countless official duties and textbooks, without any time for herself.

Before she could get out of the grief, she had to shoulder the heavy responsibility that made people breathless.

She was under high pressure all day long, and the pressure was accumulated and could not be vented, thus entering a vicious circle.

This is why Winnie felt that Mirexia’s personality had a turning point during that time, no longer laughing, and was sullen and silent all day long.

She thought that one day she would get used to this life, to this high pressure, but people are still people, and no one can maintain mental health under such mental pressure.

The accumulated mental pressure has not been vented in time, and people’s psychological state will have problems, so that some strange hobbies will automatically be born, and the pressure will be vented in these strange ways.

Mirexia didn’t know when she had a qualitative change in her feelings for Winnie, but this feeling was not achieved overnight.

The two were once good childhood friends, but because they had not been in contact for a long time and their ideas were different, they drifted apart and went their separate ways, and even had many misunderstandings about each other, thinking that the other’s behavior was unreasonable, but when Mirexia understood that Winnie’s previous actions were all to liberate her current situation, these misunderstandings suddenly became clear and turned into emotion and guilt.

She began to reacquaint herself with this seemingly familiar but never really understood childhood friend, and the kindness that carried the injustice and did not change the original intention deeply attracted Mirexia.

Suddenly looking back, she realized that her childhood friend was still as kind as when she was a child, and would not hesitate to help the weak in need.

In addition, the most attractive thing to her may be the brilliant maternal love from Vanessa.

She may not quite understand why Vanessa is so attractive to her. When she thinks of her, emotion overwhelms reason, especially these days, Mirexia often thinks of Winnie and Vanessa, the things that happened in the Demon God’s Plane, and the touch in the president’s office that day.

Mirexia thought it was because she was too idle, so she added work to herself, but she didn’t expect that the busier she was with work, the more empty her heart became, and the more she thought of Vanessa.

She was once very confused about what was wrong with her, until that day, Winnie came to the president’s office with the pet ring, and she suddenly awakened some hobbies that she had never discovered before, and the pressure accumulated in the past seemed to have found a vent, urging her to imagine those difficult to understand things.

Then, the awkward scene with Winnie in the president’s office happened.

She should have regretted being discovered by her childhood friend, but for some reason, at that time, in addition to being devastated and extremely shy, she was actually mixed with strong excitement.

Mirexia looked at the gentle girl in front of her with a confused look, and the warm smile was like the spring water that melted the ice and snow, like the autumn waves with charming charm, which made her eyes completely unable to leave the other party.

Looking up a little, her line of sight was blocked by the towering curves of her breasts, the sheer size of them so immense that they cast a shadow, blocking the light that should have fallen across her face.

Mirexia’s face was covered with peach and crimson, she didn’t know why she became so strange, this is completely unreasonable in her usual view.

In front of Vanessa, she acted like a child, coquettish, and accepted her comfort, which made the mature Mirexia very difficult to accept, but if you let her get up now, she is not willing to say that nothing happened.

“Mirexia, relax.”

Before long, Mirexia noticed that Vanessa wasn’t just purging the toxins from her body, but was also gliding her ten gentle fingers across her forehead and temples, caressing and pressing with delicate touches.

“Um.” Mirexia felt a pain and comfort in her temples, as if the fatigue accumulated for several days had been relieved.

“Is this strength comfortable? Mirexia?” Vanessa showed a gentle smile.

“Yes, yes, it’s okay…” Mirexia blushed, although it was just a head massage, she was still a little shy to admit it.

“Then, I will continue?” Vanessa continued her movements, massaging Mirexia’s head rhythmically, occasionally touching Mirexia’s golden hair with excellent texture.

“If you start to detoxify~”

The cherry-colored light bathed Mirexia warmly, making her feel very comfortable all over her body. Her limbs, which were like dragging iron balls, were now light and free.

The warm feeling, as if lying in the arms of her mother, the sleepiness came up, Mirexia’s eyelids drooped, and she fell into a deep sleep.

When she woke up, she found that the sun had completely set, and the sky was completely dark.

Mirexia woke up, but she still didn’t want to get up. The soft pillow was too comfortable, and she rarely wanted to stay in bed.

“Are you awake? Did you sleep well?”

The gentle voice like a lark made Mirexia stunned. She looked up and saw the mountains that blocked her sight, but her perspective seemed to have changed.

Realizing that Vanessa was giving her a lap pillow, Mirexia’s face was covered with blush again.

‘Current Virtue: 10304’

Vanessa smiled gently, holding a document in her hand and flipping through it, as if she didn’t notice Mirexia’s reaction.

“Cough, it’s okay, how long have I been sleeping?” Mirexia got up in a hurry, she wanted to appear calm, but the blush on her face completely betrayed her.

“Not long, about an hour, I was afraid you would not sleep well, so I put your head on my lap, it would be better.” Vanessa raised the corner of her mouth. “Please don’t blame me for taking the liberty~?”

How could it be just a little better.

“How could it be, thank you.” Mirexia looked away and looked at the documents on the table. “When I was sleeping, were you handling the documents?”

“Yes, I thought it would be better to help you with your work while you were sleeping.”

“Isn’t that very tiring?”

“No, it’s not tiring at all.” Vanessa supported her head with one hand, blinked her beautiful eyes, and smiled charmingly at Mirexia. “Looking at your cute sleeping face, even dealing with these complicated tasks has become interesting.”

“…”

‘Current Virtue: 10404’

I don’t know if it was because she heard Vanessa say she was cute, or because she knew that the other party had been watching her sleep before, Mirexia’s blush on her face became more and more obvious.

“The poison has been completely removed, how do you feel now, Mirexia, is there any discomfort?~”

“Yes, no, everything is very comfortable, and I feel very comfortable all over my body.” Mirexia lowered her head and replied. “Thank you.”

“Really, you scolded me before, don’t let me say thank you, but now you are saying thank you to me.” Vanessa approached Mirexia, and her slender fingers poked Mirexia’s face. “Remember, don’t say thank you to me in the future, okay?”

‘Virtue +30’

‘Current Virtue: 10434’

“Yes, I know.” Mirexia picked up a document with a little absent-mindedness, and it was more like she was trying to cover up her shyness than she was trying to work every minute.

“Leave it to me, I will handle it.”

“Mirexia, are you in a hurry to handle these tasks?”

“Yes, of course, I have to deal with them as soon as possible.”

“But, Mirexia, can you really do it in your current state?” Vanessa tilted her head, showing confusion.

“What’s wrong?”

“Nothing, I just feel that the document in your hand is a bit strange, and it is quite profound, I can’t understand a word when I look at it directly, but I can understand it when I look at it upside down~?” Vanessa’s elegant smile was mixed with a little playful.

“??” Mirexia realized that the document in her hand was upside down, and she felt a sense of shame.

“…Cough, I just woke up, I didn’t pay attention.” Mirexia straightened the document and explained with a casual look.

“Oh~ I see.” Vanessa looked like she understood, but she seemed to deliberately drag her voice.

“Maybe there is this reason, but I think the reason why Mirexia is so distracted is something else.” Vanessa said with a long voice, with a deep meaning.

“What, something else?” Mirexia’s heart beat faster for a moment, and she dared not look at Vanessa’s eyes.

“I think that most of the reason why Mirexia is distracted is that the poison in your body has not been completely removed.” Vanessa approached Mirexia and whispered.

“Poison?” Mirexia was stunned for a moment, and she didn’t understand what Vanessa wanted to express.

“But, the poison I am referring to is different from the previous one.” Vanessa said mysteriously.

“How is it different?”

“Well, there are too many and too complicated principles involved, I won’t go into details, I will focus on the key points, the solution to these two poisons is different.”

“Solution?” Mirexia didn’t understand, the poison in her body had been completely removed, and both of them knew it, but suddenly hearing Vanessa say that she was still poisoned and had not been removed, Mirexia was a little confused.

“Then, how to solve this poison?” Even so, Mirexia couldn’t say it directly, so she continued to ask.

“Eh? Mirexia, don’t you know? I thought you knew.” Vanessa pouted, showing a puzzled look.

“This, I don’t know.” This made Mirexia even more confused.

She didn’t have any poison in her body, how could she know how to detoxify?

“Eh, really don’t know?”

“Didn’t you ask me to be gentle before~?” Vanessa deliberately sat closer to Mirexia, and gently blew a breath of hot air on Mirexia’s earlobe.

As soon as these words came out, the blush on Mirexia’s indifferent face could no longer be concealed, and it was covered with rosy clouds.

“What are you talking about?” Mirexia tried her best to cover up the fluctuations in her heart and manage her facial expressions. “I, didn’t…”

“So that’s it, it seems I misunderstood Mirexia.” Vanessa looked like she understood, and then she stood up. “Then, since Mirexia’s poison has been completely removed, I have no reason to stay here. Thank you for your care, I won’t disturb Mirexia anymore.”

“Wait.” Seeing Vanessa was about to leave, Mirexia called her for some reason.

“Oh? Mirexia, do you have anything else?” Vanessa stopped and turned to smile at Mirexia.

“I, actually…”
