BXBX NOVEL Chapter 527 - 13.25
[Pupa: You said that you will sacrifice a world for him, was that a lie?]
[It\'s not a lie, but... I just have a bad feeling about this version of Aaron Xu. He looks too tame and kind.]
[Pupa:… Just say that you want to avoid responsibility for Xu Jiansheng.]
[Ish, Pupa. I\'m serious here! Everything in this world feels so weird. Don\'t you think?]
[Pupa: What do you mean? I see nothing wrong. You said it yourself that this world is an easy mode solely because you want a harem.]
[I just… I feel unsettled with how easy this world is. Everything is so smooth, like butt cheeks. After so many difficult worlds, I just don\'t have any trust with these worlds.]
[Pupa: Okay, whatever you say. But what would you do with Xu Jiansheng? He is still an unimportant character since he is not the master of the world.]
[Pupa: I was just thinking about your promise. Don\'t make a promise you can\'t fulfill, Bai Yunyu.]
Pupa was dead serious when it said that to Yunyu, which made Yunyu shivered a bit. He didn\'t know what he should do either. He should\'ve sacrificed this world for Matthew, but his gut instinct told him that Matthew wasn\'t as simple as he looked.
Yunyu gulped, and then he decided to give Matthew a slice of the cake as well, just to make sure that he didn\'t get upset.
Yunyu took another plate and then gave it to Matthew.
"This is for you, Matthew. Because you\'re my first friend!" Little Jean said.
Matthew stared at the cake. He didn\'t accept it immediately because he was waiting for something. But Little Jean only smiled at him and gave him the cake.
Matthew reluctantly accepted the cake and nodded, "Thank you, Young Master Jean…."
Little Jean returned to his Big brother and was carried again on Maximillien\'s arm.
"Honorable guests, please enjoy the food that has been prepared, including the servants and guards. This is what my little brother wants me to do because he wants us all to celebrate equally," Maximillien said.
"And eat good food!" Little Jean added.
The servants and guards felt guilty at Young Master Jean because they mistreated him after the late Archduke and Duchess\' death, blaming him for bestowing a curse upon the duke\'s family.
But after seeing how much the young Archduke Maximillien Eau Saumont, who was always gloomy and scary, could finally smile in front of someone.
They finally realized how beautiful Young Master Jean\'s heart was.
Maximillien put Little Jean down and allowed him to run around his birthday party because Maximillien still had something to talk about with the magistrate. Thus, Little Jean directly approached his fiancee, Raphael De Argent.
"Angel!" Little Jean hugged Raphael. Unfortunately, he was only as tall as Raphael\'s chest. So Raphael chuckled and rubbed Little Jean\'s head.
"Happy birthday, my fairy. I have a gift for you," Raphael said. He flicked his fingers, and a small box popped out of thin air.
"Uwa, Angel is doing magic trick again!" Little Jean looked at the gift in Raphael\'s hand excitedly.
Raphael gave the small box to Little Jean, "Open it."
Little Jean opened the box and saw a butterfly-shaped hairpin. The moment Little Jean was about to touch it, the butterfly hairpin flew on its own with Raphael\'s magic. It circled on top of Little Jean\'s head before landing on his hair, neatly clipped itself as an accessory to make the already beautiful pink hair even prettier than before.
Little Jean marveled over his new hairpin. He rushed to the mirror, and his eyes sparkled with happiness. He returned back to Raphael and hugged him, "Angel, Jean looks so pretty!"
"You\'re always pretty, my fairy," Raphael kissed Little Jean\'s hair, and the smell of roses on Little Jean\'s hair always intoxicated him. It was dangerous for the next Holy Saint to get addicted to anything, so he separated himself from his innocent fiancee and said, "Jean, that hairpin will always stay on your hair. It will be your protective charm, understand?"
"Jean… I will make sure that you will be well protected. Because we will marry in the future," Raphael said. "I will protect you from anything, including the scheme around your palace."
Little Jean didn\'t understand what Raphael meant, but he just nodded happily since the hairpin looked so pretty.
"Thank you, Angel!"
**
Raphael excused himself and leave the party earlier. Little Jean was left alone again. He saw his Big brother was still busy discussing about serious stuff with the big guys.
So he scanned around and saw Matthew was standing at the corner alone. He still had the plate of cake untouched in his hand. He kept staring at it, and his expression turned worse each second.
Little Jean approached Matthew and asked him, "Matthew, why are you standing here alone? Let\'s eat something together!"
Matthew, who had been ignoring everything so far, finally looked at the beautiful Little Jean and the butterfly hairpin on his hair.
Matthew clenched his fist, but he controlled his emotion and then shook his head weakly, "I\'m not hungry, Young Master."
"Ehh, is that why you don\'t eat the cake?" Jean asked.
\'Because you don\'t feed me. It\'s obvious that you gave me a cake just because you feel like it\'s necessary. You gave your Big brother and that second prince your cake wholeheartedly. But what you give to me is a compensation….\'
Matthew, who was only six years old, felt an indescribable sense of jealousy in his heart. He was a very smart and conscious kid ever since he was young, but this was the first time he felt this, and this feeling only appeared when Little Jean was around.
[Pupa, why do I feel like Matthew is trying to hide his anger for some unknown reason.]
[Pupa: I detect no sign of anger from him. Unless he is a top-notch actor, then he seems to be okay, dull as always when he\'s around you.]
"Wu… but the cake will be spoiled…." Little Jean was thinking for a moment and then said, "Matthew, let\'s eat the cake together!"
