The Reborn Aristocrat's Daughter-Chapter 245: Personal Assistant (1)_1

And for the first time, he felt the warmth of family. As they ate, watching Old Madam Situ occasionally serve him food, and Loo Yaxin, who would urge him not to be polite, to just enjoy the meal, he could not help but feel a sourness welling up in his eyes.
Situ Xin could sense the shifts in Situ Muli’s emotions, and she couldn’t help but sigh internally; Situ Muli was just like her, lacking the warmth of a family. However, she was much luckier than Situ Muli—she had been reborn. In this life, she had obtained what she had most desired in her previous life.
Therefore, she would use all her power to protect her happiness in this life.
Seeing Situ Muli’s longing for warmth, Situ Xin changed her original plan. She had intended to wait until Xiang Yang and the others arrived tomorrow to send Situ Muli back to The Dark Division for training.
The organization Situ Muli was previously part of was quite decent, but in Situ Xin’s eyes, it was barely satisfactory. Situ Muli still needed to undergo training to improve his strength. freeweɓnovel.cøm
But seeing Situ Muli as he was now, Situ Xin felt it would be better to keep him at home for training temporarily, to let him feel a bit of the family’s warmth.
Moreover, it just so happened that Situ Che and Loo Jie were not going back to the army for the time being. Thus, while training Situ Muli and helping him enhance his strength, he could also share some real battle experience with Situ Che and Loo Jie.
After all, Situ Muli was battle-scarred, far beyond what Situ Che and Loo Jie could compare with.
That night, when Situ Xin entered her special space, Baibai happily ran towards her: "Master, you are finally here." Situ Xin had left Baibai in the space when she went to Dragon Society that afternoon. Now, Baibai hadn’t seen her master all afternoon and missed Situ Xin terribly, especially since time in the space flowed so much more slowly than outside.
"So, you felt lonely again?" Holding Baibai, Situ Xin walked into the space. "Baibai, wait here on your own, okay? I’m going to bottle all the wine in the space. Grandpa Deng is coming over tomorrow, and it will be just perfect for him to bring some back to try."
"Ah, wine." Baibai’s mouth watered at the mention. "I want to drink too."
"Greedy cat, oh, no, greedy tiger." After casting a disdainful glance at Baibai, Situ Xin began to bustle about.
Situ Xin first went to the processing factory to manufacture the bottles for the wine. Last time, she had only managed to test the process and hadn’t had time to produce them all.
Once she had fashioned all the bottles, Situ Xin began using her telekinesis to fill them with wine. However, because she had made such a vast variety of wines before, by the time she had bottled just a third of them, she was already exhausted from overusing her telekinesis.
"Ah, I can’t do this anymore, that’s it for today. I’ve reached my limit." Situ Xin rubbed her slightly aching head and turned to see Baibai grasping a wine glass, contentedly sipping peach blossom wine.
This infuriated Situ Xin, "Baibai, get your furry butt over here! I’m working my tail off here, and you’re just enjoying yourself. Tell me, are you asking for a thrashing? Ah, speaking of which, the weather is going to get cold soon. It’ll be just right to pluck your fur to make a tiger fur coat for my grandma and great-grandma."
Fearing that he had angered his master, Baibai didn’t waste a moment. He dropped his wine glass and ran over to Situ Xin with a face full of fawning, not daring to jump into her arms but rubbing against her feet instead. "Master, Baibai is sorry. Please don’t be mad."
"Hmm, if you don’t want me to be mad, you can help me bottle this wine. When you finish bottling the wine, that’s when I’ll take you out." This time, Situ Xin was genuinely angered by Baibai. It was just too much; Baibai was deliberately provoking her.
Hearing Situ Xin’s words, Baibai let out a mournful howl: "Ah, you can’t mean it, Master? Please, no."
"No use in crying. You have to do it." This time Situ Xin was determined.
After saying that, Situ Xin, ignoring Baibai’s wails, made a round in the space and then flashed out, leaving behind a dejected Baibai on its own.
The next morning, Situ Xin was sleeping soundly when Old Madam Situ dragged her out of bed.
After washing up and following Old Madam Situ downstairs, Situ Xin still had her eyes closed, eliciting a wave of heartache from Old Madam. Her baby girl had been looking forward to the summer holidays, a chance to sleep in, but alas, someone inconsiderate had come early to cause trouble.
As they descended the stairs, Old Madam Situ held Situ Xin’s hand and shot a reproachful look at Xiang Yang and the others.
After receiving the reproachful looks from Old Madam Situ, Xiang Yang and his group felt baffled, wondering what they had done to upset the old lady.
Coming downstairs, Situ Xin saw Xiang Yang, Wu Qing, and the others sitting on the sofa and said groggily, "You guys are up early," before heading straight for the dining table to sit down, waiting for her grandmother’s lovingly prepared breakfast.
Left behind, Xiang Yang and Wu Qing looked at each other. Early? It was already nine o’clock. In another two hours, it’d be midday.
Nevertheless, they couldn’t deny that a sleepy Situ Xin exuded a childish air, not like the age-inappropriate maturity and brilliance that was so blinding yesterday.
After breakfast, Situ Xin was fully awake.
By the time Situ Xin finished breakfast and returned to the living room, Old Deng had already appeared.
"Xiao Xin, Grandpa Deng really missed out today, arriving just a bit late and not seeing you in your sleepy daze," Old Deng said with a chuckle, which had Situ Xin narrowing her eyes at Xiang Yang and the others.
Hearing Old Deng’s words, she knew for certain that it must’ve been Xiang Yang and his group spouting bad things about her.
Xiang Yang and the others felt a chill down their spines under Situ Xin’s gaze. Xing regretted his chattiness even more, praying in his heart that Situ Xin wouldn’t guess it was him who blabbed.
But Situ Xin didn’t dwell on such trivial matters; today, she had things to do. Otherwise, Xing would have been in serious trouble.
