When we returned to the house, Xiao Heitan's mood had calmed down a lot, but he still held me tightly with his little hands, making him look like a puppy trying its best to be coquettish and begging for forgiveness from its parents. Let me talk to Huang Duanzi

The maid couldn't help but laugh when she saw it. It turned out that this little kid was a bit cautious.

We don't hate this kind of innocent and cute care.

Seeing the slender little arms of Little Heitan, but hugging him tightly, I blinked, and I felt a childlike innocence inexplicably. I jumped up on the bed with Little Heitan in my arms, and fell down heavily. The frightened Little Heitan

As sensitive as a kitten, the body reacted subconsciously. The small and soft waist seemed to have no bones, and it performed a difficult turning movement. When it landed, it firmly supported the body with its limbs, avoiding the impact of things like the head.

Important parts of the class were damaged.

Of course, even if she didn't react, my move wouldn't cause her any harm at all. It was all calculated in advance. I'm not the kind of heartless father who would throw a baby around.

.

However, because I was taking care of the little black carbon, I didn’t take care of my body, and it fell heavily on the bed. However, the damage was nothing. Lying on the bed, I looked at the small black carbon that fell quickly, and reached out to pinch it.

Pinch her cheek.

"How's it going? Now you can talk properly."

"Yeah." Xiao Heitan, whose face was flushed with embarrassment because of my narrow smile, nodded slightly, followed my body sitting up from the bed, and then sat up on my bed, squinting his eyes like a kitten and resting on my pillow.

On my lap, it seems that I can feel at ease only if I stay by my father's side.

"Little Heitan is so clingy to me, I think she must be afraid of you." I couldn't help turning my head and teasing the maid, which got an angry eye roll from her. I was envious of the fact that Little Heitan was even more clingy to me.

Endless.

After adjusting the atmosphere, seeing that everyone was feeling relieved, I started to carefully mention the afternoon's events to Xiao Heitan.

"Xiao Heitan, every girl has her own secrets, even secrets that even her parents don't know. As she grows older, there will be more such secrets, and slowly she will become separated from her parents.

Embracing, growing up, becoming independent and self-reliant.”

"It seems like you men don't have anything to say about it." Faced with my [sexism], the pornographic maid protested seriously.

"Ahem. Well, in fact, boys are the same, so maybe your sisters, Sirus and Aikelu, now have secrets that Vilas and I don't know. After all, they have grown up.

"

Touching the soft hair of Xiao Heitan, I sighed softly. I just wanted to introduce the topic and talk about it, but I really got into it and it turned into a class where my father talked about his troubles.

"Sooner or later, little black carbon will be like this, just like a young bird spreading its wings, sooner or later it will leave the side of its parents and fly to the vast sky, unrestrained and free."

Xiao Heitan, who was resting comfortably on my thigh and squinted, shook his head like a rattle when he heard my words, and nervously grabbed my clothes with his little hands.

"Don't... don't want to leave mom and dad."

"But in this case, Xiao Heitan will not be able to be independent." I looked distressed.

"Can't you be independent without leaving your parents?" Little Heitan tilted his head and asked suddenly.

"This..." I was speechless for a moment. This seemed to be a real problem, so inertial thinking kills people. The education I have always received is that when you grow up, you will break away from the arms of your parents and be self-reliant, but you will not break away from your parents.

Can't you be self-reliant if you embrace it?

Seeing that I was deflated, the little maid on the side smiled very happily, and her bright eyes seemed to say, you idiot prince just made fun of me, you must have received retribution.

"Of course... this is not impossible. Ahem, what I mean is that Little Black Carbon has grown up now, so it is normal to have his own secrets. We will not interfere casually."

When I said this, I felt a little guilty. I said it was nice, but secretly I had already investigated every move of Xiao Heitan. Is this called not interfering casually?

But when I thought about it carefully, I realized that this was an unauthorized action by the slutty maid. I only listened to the information from the sidelines and could be considered an accomplice at most.

After successfully shirking responsibility, I felt at ease.

"Little Heitan, I don't intend to hide anything from my parents." After hearing what I said, Little Heitan shook his head and said.

"Really? If Little Black Carbon plans to keep his own little secret, we won't mind. We will respect his rights. After all, my Little Black Carbon is now a little adult." I confirmed again.

"There is no need to hide secrets from mom and dad, and there won't be any in the future." Xiao Heitan shook his head vigorously and answered decisively.

"Very good, then dad can feel free to ask, where did little Heitan go all afternoon? Can you tell mom and dad?"

Maybe some people will have questions and talk a lot in roundabout ways. Wouldn't it be better to just ask this from the beginning?

No, no, I have to respect Xiao Heitan’s right to privacy and confirm that she doesn’t mind before I can intervene. Many conflicts between parents and children arise from such inadvertent and simple acts of violence. The reason is this

He has not respected his child and treated her as an equal.

Okay, maybe someone will question you again. You already know what your daughter did in the afternoon, so why bother asking? It’s superfluous.

This kind of thinking is also wrong. We know that we know it, and it has completely different meanings from Xiao Heitan's own words. Therefore, rather than getting the information from the pornographic maid, I want to know from Xiao Heitan's mouth. If Xiao Heitan said it himself,

If Hei Tan refuses to tell me, I will keep what I know in my heart and let her become Hei Tan’s real secret.

Of course, I have never been a serious parent. I don’t know whether this approach or these ideas are correct or not. I only know that this is the most appropriate way to educate my children based on my IQ level.

After listening to my question, Xiao Heitan, who was resting on his thigh, visibly trembled again and curled up.

"Mom and dad... aren't you angry with me?" Xiao Heitan didn't dare to act coquettishly anymore. He sat up obediently and lowered his head. He carefully peeked through the gap in his bangs to see the expressions of me and the pornographic maid.

"Although I said I didn't say hello, running out alone really made us worried for a while, and I felt a little angry." I looked at each other with the maidservant Huang Duanzi, and I said. Seeing Xiao Heitan's head lowered even lower, I couldn't help but

Smile slightly.

"But both father and mother know that little Heitan is a well-behaved and sensible child. He would never do such a thing. There must be some special reason for it, but they also feel that Little Heitan has grown up, maybe

There will be little secrets that you want to keep. I hesitated for a long time between asking and not asking. If Xiao Heitan doesn't want to tell us, that's okay. Dad and Mom respect your decision and won't be angry with you.

"

These heartfelt words made Xiao Heitan raise her head again. Although she is not very old, her character has become very mature under the temper of a difficult childhood, so she must be able to understand our sincerity and inner littleness as parents.

A small tangle.

For this respect, Xiao Heitan shed tears silently, wiped her eyes, and showed a firm gaze. She did not say too many touching words, but went directly to the topic, using this way to repay her parents' love.

"Actually... I'm not very sure what happened. Normally, I would never do something like this to worry my parents. Maybe... it should start from this morning..."

As Xiao Heitan narrated, the maid Huang Duanzi and I kept nodding our heads, combining the information with it, and we already had a complete outline of the matter in our minds.

According to Xiao Heitan's description, starting from this morning, she smelled a special smell in the wind, and her body began to have some abnormalities. These abnormalities came from her other side, Lilith, who is of the blood of the Night Demon.

, it was not obvious at the time, and Xiao Heitan didn't pay attention to it, but after returning to the Elf King City, especially when he left everyone and was alone, this abnormality began to grow, and the other her, Lily

Si's murmur was like the temptation of the devil, causing her body to gradually lose control, and she left the Crystal Tree and the Elf King City in a daze.

When Xiao Heitan woke up completely, she was already standing under a tree and squatting on the ground. A subtle smell assaulted her nostrils. It was both something she wanted and something she hated for no reason.

He couldn't tell why this happened, but Xiao Heitan immediately noticed another fact. She got into trouble, ran out secretly, and ran so far away. Her parents must have been worried to death, and then they followed the way they came back in the morning.

She rushed all the way back. Her strength was not inferior to that of Harrogath's adventurers. If she just hurried on, those monsters would not be able to stop her. Finally, she finally returned to the Elf King's City before the sun completely set.

After listening to Xiao Heitan's narration, the maid Huang Duanzi and I nodded secretly. It was indeed the case, but there was one thing that Xiao Heitan was wrong about after all. She thought she was tempted by another Lilith.

Making such an inexplicable move, Little Black Carbon is actually Lilith, and Lilith is also Little Black Carbon, so it is not anyone who tempts her there, but herself, her own blood and soul.

Of course, we will definitely not explain these things to Xiao Heitan. We can only wait until she gradually merges with the Night Demon bloodline and slowly understands it ourselves. Talking about it now will only increase her troubles.

"Okay, the truth is out. It turns out that he was tempted by Lilith and did this strange behavior. Let me just tell you, how could my little black carbon do such a thing."

I reached out and hugged the little Heitan again, and rubbed her soft face, I said happily.

"Okay, okay, aren't you hungry? Especially Xiao Heitan, but we have been walking all day." The little maid looked at this scene and said with a warm smile.

As if in response to her words, Little Heitan's stomach growled, and the shy little princess immediately blushed, making the maid and I couldn't help laughing.

Laughter sounded, seeming to announce the end of this incident. After that, no one mentioned the disappearance of Xiao Heitan in the afternoon. Xilusi and Aikelu didn't even know about it. Only Xiao Hetan

The fox vaguely noticed something.

The next morning, I was full of energy and looked in the mirror. I straightened the slightly crooked cloak straps and looked at myself in the glasses. Well, it was perfect. I mean this outstanding black cloak that has been around for more than ten years.

The history and the pure classical flavor exuding from above fascinate even me.

Last night, I mentioned to the maidservant that she wanted to meet Yalandelan. I didn’t expect that it was her efficiency or Yalandeland’s that should be said to be more efficient. But in the morning, some elf soldiers came over and said it was

Grand Elder Yalandlan invited me and the little ghost to have lunch together and chat about family matters.

Of course, which one is more convenient, you have to see Yalandan in person to know.

Everything is ready, all that's left is...

I took out the necklace with an expressionless face and shook it vigorously. After a while, a ball of white luminous matter came out of it.

"Wow, this saint is going to fall."

At the critical moment, I bent down and reached out to fish it out, and pulled up this light little ghost.

"Why does Xiaofan always do such boring pranks?" The little ghost once again expressed her strong dissatisfaction with the way I called her out, and by the way, "Be careful when you fall asleep and you are unknowingly sunk to the bottom of the sea."

Oh." Such a look threatens me.

"Who just said it was ready? Let me wait. It's been half an hour. Half an hour has passed, you know?"

"This saint is a lady who pays attention to etiquette. Half an hour is not enough to dress up." The little ghost argued confidently.

"Okay, I'll treat you as such a lady, but..." I looked her up and down and angrily said, "Even if you can't get ready in half an hour, take a look in the mirror now.
To be continued...
