Inside the Pope's Palace.
Lingyuan arrived late.
Originally, she had taken Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan shopping, but was urgently summoned back by Bibi Dong.
"Your Majesty, you were looking for me?"
Lingyuan entered, a bit puzzled as she asked, her gaze quietly sizing up Bibi Dong.A woman who has been well-nourished truly has a completely different glow.
The current Bibi Dong looked dignified, noble, and elegant, yet there was a faint charm in her eyes—absolutely stunning to behold.
Bibi Dong lightly nodded and said:
"I called Elder Lingyuan here so urgently because… there is something I need your help with. It's… it's a private matter between us."
If one were to ask who Bibi Dong finds easiest to face?
That would definitely be Lingyuan.
Both were "older bulls eating young grass," good sisters in crime.This was like a thief meeting another thief—neither had the right to call the other out.
Lingyuan glanced at Bibi Dong and replied:
"Your Majesty, what is it?"
Bibi Dong's expression turned complicated:
"Nana came to see me today, asking about my situation with Su Chen.I have absolutely no idea how to explain it to her."
"Elder Lingyuan, could you help me?"
Hearing this, Lingyuan couldn't help laughing internally.
Asking me for help?
You don't even want to respectfully call me 'older sister'!How am I supposed to help you?
Lingyuan asked softly:
"Then, may I ask what Your Majesty needs me to do?"
Bibi Dong didn't notice Lingyuan's amused expression. She was only full of inner conflict:
"I simply don't know how to face Nana.I watched her grow up, and I'm her teacher… Lingyuan, why are you laughing?"
"Ah?"
Lingyuan pretended to look innocent:
"I'm not."
"Your Majesty, did you see me laugh?"
Bibi Dong's eyes grew strange. Annoyed, she said:
"You must be making fun of me, Lingyuan!Aren't we the same kind of people? And you still have the nerve to laugh at me?"
"I didn't laugh at you back then."
"Pfft."
This time, Lingyuan couldn't hold it in, directly laughing out loud as she looked at Bibi Dong:
"No, no.I just didn't expect Your Majesty to have such a womanly side.I'm actually happy for you. Yes—truly happy for you."
Bibi Dong was speechless.
Even Lingyuan was teasing her.She could imagine how those other women who held diary copies must be whispering behind her back.
Not to mention her own daughter.
"Sigh…"
Bibi Dong sighed:
"Go ahead and laugh."
"Ahem."
Lingyuan quickly cleared her throat:
"Your Majesty, I think how to face Nana is a minor issue.In Nana's heart, she also hopes to see you happy."
"With Nana, you two can just keep separate roles—outside, she continues calling you teacher; at home, you call her 'older sister.'"
Bibi Dong nodded lightly, but something didn't feel right.
"Why am I calling her older sister?Shouldn't she call me older sister?"
Lingyuan looked embarrassed:
"Well… Nana is Xiao Chen's very first confidante."
"Although we're older than her, a household must have rules.Isn't that right?"
Bibi Dong looked confused:
"Nana is the eldest at home?"
"What about you? What rank are you?"
Lingyuan calmly replied:
"I'm second-to-last. Your Majesty is last.Strictly speaking, Your Majesty should be calling me 'older sister.'"
"Of course—"
"Our ranking isn't the important thing.What matters is that the household has one main wife, someone who can mediate disputes so Xiao Chen doesn't have to worry."
Listening to Lingyuan's words, Bibi Dong's expression grew complicated.
Too late.
Too late.
If she had known this earlier, on the first day she discovered Su Chen's diary, she should've locked him in a secret chamber.Then she would've become the one true ruler of the harem.
Lingyuan stood to the side, amused.She was very much looking forward to the moment Bibi Dong had to call Hu Liena "older sister."That would certainly be entertaining.
"Oh, right!"
Lingyuan suddenly remembered something and asked:
"Your Majesty, didn't Nana come to see you this morning?Why haven't we seen her?"
"Huh?"
Bibi Dong froze, then immediately reacted:
"Oh no."
"That little girl is going to steal the house."
As she spoke, Bibi Dong hurriedly stood and rushed with Lingyuan toward the Pope's bedchamber.
"Steal the house?"
Hearing Bibi Dong drop such a slang term, Lingyuan was shocked.Bibi Dong had slept with Su Chen for only two days, yet she'd already learned so many new phrases.
Inside the secret chamber.
Hu Liena hung weakly on a spiderweb, muttering:
"Teacher really lives up to being teacher—she's way too creative.This spiderweb is really impressive!"
"The elasticity is amazing!"
Su Chen nodded approvingly:
"Of course. Your teacher is your teacher.She's much stronger than you."
Hu Liena pouted and asked Su Chen:
"Then let me ask you something—right now, is it me secretly 'watering' my teacher's man, or is it teacher 'watering' my man?"
"Uh…"
Su Chen looked conflicted:
"That's a tough question to answer."
"But you can imagine it this way:You came here and secretly watered your teacher's man. Isn't that really exciting?"
Hu Liena rolled her eyes:
"You're the worst."
Su Chen continued:
"Or imagine this—your teacher is outside working desperately for the Spirit Hall…"
"…and you are inside her secret chamber, desperately working her man."
Hu Liena: ???
"Oh my god!"
Hu Liena looked dazed:
"If I think of it that way—teacher is outside working hard for Spirit Hall, and I'm inside working hard for teacher…This is way too shameless."
"Uh… that's something you should reflect on.Your woman is outside struggling for you, and you're in here struggling with her disciple.Aren't you the shameless one?"
"Wait!"
Hu Liena suddenly struggled free from the spiderweb and exclaimed:
"This is bad. Really bad."
"So much time has passed—if I don't leave now, teacher will definitely find out!"
She hurriedly put her clothes in order and rushed toward the secret chamber exit.
"Hey?"
Su Chen had just opened his mouth to call her back, when Hu Liena had already sprinted out.He was speechless.
Sure enough—
Hu Liena rushed out of the secret chamber, clothes still not properly adjusted.Just as she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, she turned her head…
And saw Bibi Dong and Lingyuan sitting on the sofa, staring straight at her.
"Ah!!"
Hu Liena panicked, immediately explaining:
"Teacher, I'm sorry… I… I was wrong."
She looked like a child caught misbehaving—completely forgetting that she was the original one here, the eldest sister of the household!
Bibi Dong and Lingyuan exchanged a glance.Just as they expected—Hu Liena had indeed come to steal the house.
Bibi Dong's face was calm, though inwardly she was flustered.Actually… the one who should be saying sorry was her.
"Nana."
Bibi Dong hesitated, then stepped forward to help tidy Hu Liena's messy hair and clothes.Teacher and disciple met eye to eye, both filled with guilt.
Lingyuan then stood up and said:
"All right."
"Your Majesty, call Nana 'older sister.'Nana, you call Her Majesty 'Old Six.'Then this matter is settled."
Both of them: ???
