Scott asked in a low voice: "What's wrong, what's wrong?"

Sheen folded the note and said to Scott with an awkward smile:

"Nothing, I'm just being urged to get married - my careless father is really trying to squeeze out all my value..."

Sheen put the envelope away and suddenly said, "I really think Atole will do something to let me marry into his family. Because don't you have a sister?"

Scott was drinking water, but when he heard what Sheen said, he almost choked to death:

"Ahem... You should know your limits, right?"

Scott lowered his head, trying not to meet Sheen's eyes.

Xien said helplessly:

"Of course~

"Think about it, I'm blonde, so that troublesome thing must want me to get married quickly and have offspring, and then adopt the blonde child under Xi Lun's name - everything is perfect."

Under Sheen's sarcasm, Scott also sneered in his heart:

“If you insist on letting Xilun inherit the family, this is the only thing we can do.

because...

Xi Lun is incapable of fulfilling the duties of a husband and wife!"

But now that Sheen mentioned breeding, Scott's mood suddenly became bad.

"Ugh..."

Scott suddenly exclaimed,

"Come to think of it, I also have to take on the mission of reproducing offspring. It's really stressful."

Sheen looked at Scott with a look of curiosity (after all, this man was the Duke's legitimate son and had an important mission).

"Are you okay? Fate is a very strange thing,"

Sheen saw Scott was silent, leaning on the sofa and describing the blueprint.

"You will meet a girl you like right away, get down on one knee and propose to her. Then you will do your husband and wife thing and have your first child.

"As long as you don't do anything that violates your marriage fidelity, you can still live in harmony with each other, right?"

Scott looked at Sheen with half-opened eyes:

"You said that quite lightly..."

"You are not worried about anything. But I am a girl! Although blood magic can really allow me to perform husband and wife duties, I still feel uncomfortable inside."

The two were silent.

Although they are all book travelers, they will return to reality in the end.

But in this world, it seems that staying single will bring a lot of trouble - so the best way is really a contract marriage, so as to shut up those people who have nothing to do all day long.

But Sheen's channel seems to be parallel to Scott's:

"Ah, that's right. You're out there fighting all day, dealing with men. How can you have the chance to meet women? You don't understand girls' little thoughts at all."

"I can't refute what you said." Scott rolled his eyes at Sheen.

"You said, don't say...

I really don’t understand men’s minds. They all say I’m a taciturn person and that I only say hurtful things.”

Scott (Stella) drinks tea helplessly, which is her way of relieving boredom.

"Ugh..."

Sheen's exit is an absolute king bomb.

""It would be better if you were a girl, then we could still get along...""

"puff--!"

Scott sprayed Sheen directly in the face, making Sheen feel like he was being baptized.

...

"what!"

Sheen used the cleansing magic to clean himself up and gave Scott a dull look.

"I was just joking, do you really...?"

"Sorry...cough, sorry." Scott asked while coughing.

"Your idea is really crazy, ugh!

"You have to know... ahem, the reason why Haines and Impes haven't had an alliance for so many years is because... ahem! If the first child they give birth to is a blond boy again, will the child inherit Haines or Impes?"

This was taking advantage of the loophole set up in the Game of Mediation. Sheen remained silent.

"Uh... this is something I didn't expect,"

Sheen scratched his head to hide his embarrassment.

"But if we can fake marriage during a time of controversy, and then divorce after our careers are stable, wouldn't we be able to avoid those gossips?"

"That's true." Scott was speechless.

As Sheen was refilling his tea, he suddenly remembered the portrait of Stella he had received as Ivan.

"Stella..."

Scott was stunned when he heard the name.

He almost agreed.

"Isn't she your half-sister? Why is her portrait in Lady Nora's room?"

"Huh?" Scott was completely confused.

Sheen realized something was wrong - it seemed inappropriate to ask Scott using Sheen's identity.

He lied quickly: "Didn't Ivan help Eric clean up his things a while ago? He said he seemed to have found something of your sister's illegitimate daughter Stella. But doesn't Stella have anything to do with Madam Nora?"

"what?"

Scott's hands could barely hold the tea:

"Didn't the paranoid Nora burn everything related to 'Stella'? How come there are still things about Stella?

Calm down, Stella, what if Sean is trying to trick me?"

But the fact that "Stella" is an illegitimate daughter... their family did create this identity for her——

As early as two years ago, when Stella came of age, the Duke made public that he had an illegitimate daughter, Stella, and then she completed the coming-of-age ceremony as Stella.

Of course, she was wearing a women's uniform that day (she still didn't like wearing skirts), so she naturally didn't leave a good impression on the people present.

I was subjected to rumors from those ladies...

"Ah, maybe it's because... her father brought her home when she was four years old. Her mother thought the child looked a bit like her, so she kept her photo."

After Scott calmed down, he explained to Sheen,

"But now that I think about it, Stella looks a lot like my mother. It's a strange coincidence."

"Oh, I know."

Xien lowered his head and wiped the tea that had overflowed from the cup.

"But Ivan said she has some similarities with you...

“If he hadn’t known that Mrs. Nora had given birth to twin sons, he would have thought that you were a woman disguised as a man to take over Scott’s identity.”

Scott (Stella) appeared calm on the surface, but was already panicking inside:

"Why is it that Sean and Ivan both have such strong intuition..."

Scott added:

"Dad may have kept this girl to solve the marriage problem. Otherwise, I can't figure it out.

"Don't take it to heart. You're not even old enough to get married yet. Besides, Uncle Arthur is in charge of Haines now. He probably won't be so bored as to force you to get married quickly."

Sheen almost laughed:

"Indeed, my uncle made sure I wouldn't be swayed by these things."

Scott hummed, then bent down to add tea to his cup.

But at this moment, Sheen found his opportunity.

His eyes were fixed on Scott's neck - there was indeed no mole.

"The real Scott has a mole on his neck. Stella doesn't. What does that mean?"

The corners of Xien's mouth rose slightly.

Then, he continued to pretend nothing had happened and chatted with Scott about trivial things that had happened during this period.
