Ibeiya And The King (2)

With some things, the more normal they were, the more abnormal they seemed.

After losing both her parents since she was young, and even getting abandoned by the royal family, Ibeiya should hate Rosa's royalty as well as her own grandfather. The king did not seem to have cared for his granddaughter of mixed blood. If Xiao Lin had not told the king, the king would probably have never thought of Ibeiya.

Xiao Lin was sitting by the side, drinking some tea as he quietly listened on. The more he listened, the weirder it felt. Ibeiya's tone was very normal, no trace of excitement for seeing a relative, nor was there any trace of hatred or anger. The king seemed to be talking normally as well, asking Ibeiya about her life over the past years. His voice had no trace of regret or pity.
