âAh, Liu Yue! Over here! Over here!â
Liu Yue always wondered what the circumference of Nonaâs unique sensing ability was. Nonaâs ability allowed her to sense the location of her family members. As soon as Liu Yue arrived inside the Imperial Palace, Nona called out to her, bearing in mind that, not only did she not ride the imperial familyâs carriage in but didnât inform her sisters when sheâd arrive, either.
Nona cheerfully ran up to Liu Yue. Seeing the way Nona ran, Liu Yueâs dignity as a woman took a blow. She always thought Nonaâs breasts that made others green with envy from a young age were merely thanks to her developing relatively earlier. She later realised her assumption was wrong. Nona didnât develop early â she never stopped developing! By the time they came of age, Nonaâs breasts had already grown to the point that Vera wanted to rip them off and plant them on herself. When Liu Yue ran, only her tail and ears moved. As for Nona, her breasts jiggled instead.
âI really should tell Nona not to run in Veraâs presence next time; else, sheâll get herself killed,â Liu Yue thought to herself.
âDadâs fifteenth anniversary as King of the North? Look how clean and tidy the Imperial Palace is! Have you prepared a present?â
âI havenât⊠I couldnât decide on what to give Dad. Weâre not children, so giving him some hand-made stuff would be embarrassing, wouldnât it? I mean, even we would feel awkward, right? Then again, I canât afford expensive stuff; therefore, all I could do was come with Mom. Mom prepared a strange present. Itâs fur that Iâve never seen before. I think itâs some rare animalâs fur. I donât know where she got it from.â
âI donât know what to give Dad, nor have I seen anything worthy. All I can do is express my thoughts to Mom and Dad. Mom also prepared strange present for Dad. Come to think of it, it seems to be a crown that Daisy and Mommy Nier are gifting together. Itâs a nice crown. Grandmother Sylvanas isnât around. She said she was heading back to prepare a present for Dad. Itâs probably going to be some treasure or something from the dragon race. Sister Freya and Miss Luna have prepared presents. I think weâre the only ones without anything.â
Liu Yue instantly figured out what Nona was thinking: âSo thatâs why you were looking forward to me coming. You wanted to give Dad a present together with me? You three have prepared a lot, right?â
âLiu Yue, have you forgotten weâve been separated for a long time? Two years ago, Vera went to the elven lands to undertake magic training from Grandmother Vyvyan. Daisy then went to Hilles City and stayed with Grandmother Elizabeth, so I was left alone with Dad.â
âIâm so envious of you.â
Liu Yue didnât lie. She genuinely felt that Nona was the most blessed one among them. Vera and Daisy were most likely quite lonely, especially since the four of them all really liked their Dad. However, Vera and Daisy had to leave their dad to undertake training, which was the equivalent of giving up their right. Although Nona wasnât going to get the chance to succeed a throne, she was able to continue spending happy days by their dadâs side. Imagine Daisy and Veraâs jealousyâŠ
âEnvious or not, letâs put that aside for now. I think we should focus on deciding what to give Dad. Liu Yue, you live outside the palace; you should know what sort of present would make a boy happy, rightâŠ?â
Liu Yue sighed. In a hopeless tone, she answered, âAnd youâve just pointed out the problem. I only know what to give boys. Is Dad a boy, though? I never gave Dad any presents on Fatherâs Day since I didnât know what to give him. I donât know what to give Dad, myself. Additionally, what could we buy Dad in the Imperial Palace? Thereâs no guarantee weâll find something for Dad even if we went out.â
âWhat do we do, then? We canât give Dad our bodies, can we?â
âWhere did you learn to say something so censor worthy? Even if we did offer up our bodies, Dad wouldnât accept it, would he? Have you still not figured it out? Dad prefers the relatively older type⊠Weâre just kids to him. Heâs not interested in children. Of course, I think you might succeed, Nona.â
Ling Yue sighed. If she could, sheâd jump at the offer in a heartbeat. Foxes got as jealous as everyone else. She, too, wanted to prove to her mother that she was equally charming. But nonetheless, Ling Yue never considered her a rival, while her father always viewed her as nothing but a child. Offering her body would probably be courting humiliation.
Nona jolted. She then scratched her head. Puzzled, she said, âBut I asked Sister Freya. Thatâs what she told meâŠâ
âNever tell Dad Sister Freya told you that. She was just joking. If you tell Dad, I bet anything Dad will scold Sister Freya⊠Letâs put Dadâs present aside for the meantime. The two of us wonât be able to come up with anything good. How about asking Vera and Daisy? We might be able to come up with something good if the four of us combine our minds.â
âMm, Vera has returned, but Daisy is still on her way. Sheâll probably arrive tomorrow or the day after. We must prepare Dadâs present beforehand; else, a belated gift will be meaningless.â
âI know. That said, itâs best not get our hopes up. The possible presents we could give Dad are far and few. Oh, Vera, youâre here.â
Just when the two started heading into the Imperial Palace, they saw Vera, who happened to be coming out. Vera greeted Liu Yue when she saw her. Her gaze shifted down to Liu Yueâs breasts in the most natural manner possible. While the foxâs breasts werenât as ample as Nonaâs, her body did qualify to be classified as curvaceous. As a result, a tinge of hostility surfaced in Veraâs eyes.
âWhat are you looking at me that way for? I never provoked you. Donât blame your own issue on me. I came here to be happier this time,â fired Liu Yue.
âI know. Dadâs present, correct? I get it. So, Liu Yue, do you have any suggestions? Iâve been looking forward to a good recommendation from you. Donât worry about money. There are lots of people we can loan from, after all.â
âItâs not a question of money but what to give.â
âArenât I asking you precisely because I donât know?â
âI donât know, either. Letâs just have a good think. Speaking of which, I want to see the so-called crown. Iâve attended elven handcrafts class before. Itâs said to be exquisite; I want to take a look at the real deal!â
âEasy done. Come with me.â
