Volume 2 + Chapter 158: Xia Yi’s First Law
“Princess, good morning… Eh?”
Serra was a bit surprised by the scene before her.
The dragon loli was standing in front of the mirror, tying a blue ribbon on her small bun.
“Hm? Serra?”
Xia Yi blinked.
Serra suspected she saw wrong and quietly retreated, closing the door.
I must have opened it the wrong way.
The maid thought to herself.
Because the princess who likes to laze around, is tsundere, stubborn, mischievous and naughty… When she must get up early, the princess would stubbornly drag it out, and when she can sleep in, there’s no way she would get up early.
This is Xia Yi’s First Law.
In all the years Serra had taken care of Xia Yi, she had never seen the Princess wake up early in a non-essential situation.
After a while, Serra opened the door again.
She first looked towards the bed, but there was no young dragon hugging a dragon plushie in her sleep…
Then, her gaze fell in front of the mirror.
Xia Yi had already put on her clothes.
A light-colored short top, a blue bow tied at her chest, jade-like fair legs under the skirt, wearing white socks with lace edges, paired with silver twin tails. This style was a perfect score for cuteness.
But what surprised Serra was that even though it was a rest day, the Princess had gotten up by herself?
Unbelievable.
She must be possessed by someone.
“Serra, what are you thinking about?”
Xia Yi said dissatisfied, “From your gaze, I don’t feel like you’re showing me enough respect!”
“Apologies, Princess, I was just a bit surprised.”
“Is it that outrageous for me to not sleep in?!”
“Is there something important today?” Serra asked curiously.
Actually, there wasn’t anything.
It’s just that Xia Yi is in a good mood!
Because yesterday in the library, with Mousey’s cooperation, she made a major discovery.
Now that she has a clear goal, she has enough motivation to act.
After all, this is for revenge against Xia Lulu!
However, she can’t reveal a single bit of information in front of Serra.
“It’s nothing, Serra. I can change occasionally too! Alright, let’s go to the dining hall!”
…
“…”
“Hmm?”
In the silent stare off, Xia Lulu’s expression changed first.
“When was the last time we had breakfast together? I actually ran into Xia Yi in the dining hall today?”
In the morning, Xia Yi rarely encountered Xia Lulu in the royal dining hall.
Xia Yi and Xia Lulu don’t often have breakfast together.
One reason is that Xia Lulu is usually busy and gets up very early, never sleeping in… After all, as the ruler of the dragons, she often needs to handle state affairs.
Another reason lies with Xia Yi. Due to her living habits, she definitely sleeps in in the morning.
“Serra actually managed to wake you up?” Xia Lulu smiled.
“I wasn’t woken up!” Xia Yi retorted, “I got up early on my own today. I didn’t sleep in. Don’t underestimate me! Also, good morning!”
Although she didn’t want to lose in momentum, when she saw Xia Lulu, her body still honestly bowed.
As the Dragon Princess, Xia Yi’s excellent etiquette left Xia Lulu with nothing to nitpick.
“Good morning, Daughter. It seems you are becoming more and more outstanding as a princess.” There was a hint of teasing in Xia Lulu’s words.
If it were before, Xia Yi would definitely retort back. After all, she is very stubborn.
But today is an exception.
Xia Yi didn’t say anything. Instead, she calmly replied, “Thank you for the praise.”
“You actually… accepted it just like that?” Xia Lulu was a bit surprised.
“It’s fine, Xia Lulu. Say what you want, I won’t mind now.”
Not only did Xia Yi not mind, she even felt like laughing!
She almost couldn’t hold it in.
Seeing Xia Lulu’s slightly dazed expression, a sense of superiority arose in her heart.
Poor Xia Lulu, she doesn’t know that she’s falling into her plan step by step.
Without the other party noticing at all, she had already grasped the most critical information and learned how to force dragons to release their true form. After that, the next step would be to create an alchemical potion.
But this Silver Dragon Queen still thinks she has the absolute advantage and can manipulate her at will. In fact, she has been completely calculated by her!
If you enjoy feeling smug, then feel smug for now. After all, you won’t have another chance—
When the time comes, let’s see if you can still laugh after exposing your true form in front of all the dragons!
“Your Majesty, Princess, breakfast is ready.” Serra came forward and reported.
Xia Lulu and Xia Yi both took their seats.
“Then bring it out.” Xia Lulu ordered.
…
“It was a delicious meal. Not bad, Serra.”
Xia Yi put down her knife and fork, wiped her mouth, and gave her evaluation.
“You flatter me, Princess.” Serra bowed.
Xia Lulu still looked puzzled, seemingly perplexed by Xia Yi’s change today.
Meanwhile, Xia Yi felt like she had already regained the upper hand and could barely hold back her taunts.
But no, endure a bit…
The little princess stood up and bid farewell to Xia Lulu with a curtsy.
No, I can’t hold it in anymore. It’s fine to show a bit of smugness!
“Xia Lulu, if you want to die from embarrassment, you can crawl into my arms… Even though we’re mortal enemies, I can overlook it—”
“Hmm, daughter, what are you saying?”
“Bye-bye.”
Leaving these words, Xia Yi left the dining hall in a great mood, even humming a tune.
After she left, Xia Lulu’s expression changed, as if enjoying an amusing performance.
“Your Majesty, the Princess, she…”
Serra walked to Xia Lulu’s side, wanting to say something but stopping, because she felt the Princess might be preparing to stir up trouble.
But Xia Lulu raised her hand, interrupting Serra’s words.
“It’s alright, Serra, don’t worry about anything, just treat her as usual.”
“As you command, Your Majesty.”
…
Xia Yi walked along the corridors of the Dragon Palace, deep in thought.
Next is the next part of her evil plan.
Based on the information from the library, she would specifically refine a potion that could stimulate dragons’ nerves, forcing the drinker to release their true dragon form.
The problem lies in this. The refining of the potion requires multiple experiments.
She couldn’t find a subject as closely related to dragons as the little white lizard she used before… After all, white lizards don’t have a true dragon form, so it couldn’t be used as a reference.
This was a major difficulty. Without a suitable experimental subject, it would seriously affect progress—
“Good morning, Princess!”
An energetic voice interrupted Xia Yi’s thoughts. She raised her head… and saw an energetic green dragon apprentice maid greeting her.
Xia Yi widened her eyes, speechless.
“What’s wrong, Princess? D-Did I do something wrong again?!” Elly, holding a broom, became nervous.
The little princess’s gaze slowly changed, the corners of her mouth curving into a smile, starting to brew mischief.
“Good morning, Elly—”
