Ch 30: Family Dinner

"I understand." Ryan nodded his head and prepared to stand up to escort Sherlina.

"Young Master Ryan?" Sherlina then called out to Ryan.

Ryan turned his face to look at Sherlina, but...

"..." Sherlina kissed Ryan on the forehead; it was just a simple kiss on the forehead. Even so, Ryan's expression did not change, but the look of surprise in his eyes was undeniable.

It was clear that Ryan was taken aback by this and stared at Sherlina with a strange gaze.

"Thank you for the information, Young Master Ryan. I will look for a good husband, but... If I cannot find a good man, then I hope that at that time you can accept me as your concubine... I don't mind being the second or third wife." Sherlina said with a faint smile, her expression happy.

For some reason, at that moment, Ryan could feel his heart racing.

...

...

...

Then Ryan escorted Sherlina to the exit. Before that, Sherlina said goodbye to Leyfia and Lyana, and then Leyfia and Lyana decided to accompany Ryan to see Sherlina off as she left the Blackstar residence.

During the journey, Sherlina did not speak a word to Ryan, nor did Ryan try to talk to Sherlina. In fact, Sherlina displayed some rather strange movements that Leyfia noticed.

After Sherlina had truly left in the car, Leyfia then looked at her son.

"It seems that mother will have many grandchildren in the future." Leyfia said, teasing Ryan with a smile.

"... I don't understand what you mean, mother." Ryan replied, confused by Leyfia's words.

"Really?" Leyfia smiled and looked at Ryan, her face appearing as if she was trying to figure out what was happening, although she suspected something was going on between Ryan and Sherlina.

"Yes." Ryan remained calm and expressionless, more like Ryan, who did not show any emotions.

"Alright then, let's go back inside." Leyfia turned around and smiled faintly.

Ryan, seeing this, remained silent before following Leyfia, and then Lyana also joined Ryan.

"Brother, is it difficult to learn the basics of nobility?" Lyana then asked as she approached Ryan.

"Leyfia... You've asked the same question at least once a month. Is it that scary for you?" Ryan shifted his gaze directly at Lyana.

"No—! It's just... I just want to know how you feel, brother." Lyana replied nervously, looking away.

"If not, then don't worry. If you're smart, it will be easy, but if you're foolish, then it will be hard." Ryan's answer made Lyana unhappy.

"Brother!" Lyana pouted and looked at Ryan with an unhappy expression.

"What? That's the reality." Ryan said, indifferent to Lyana's concerns.

...

...

...

Now the Blackstar family was having dinner together, and Reynold was present with all of them. Earlier that morning, Reynold had been busy working elsewhere and only returned home at night, so he didn't have the chance to meet Sherlina to thank her for teaching Ryan.

"Ryan, you have completed the basics of nobility very well. Is there anything you want?" Reynold started the conversation.

Because Reynold had promised that if Ryan completed the basics of nobility, he would grant Ryan a wish.

"Really? Can I ask for anything?" Ryan asked, looking directly at Reynold's face.

"Of course." Reynold answered confidently.

"Then, father, I want to go on a trip." Ryan's request surprised both Reynold and Leyfia, while Lyana just looked on with a confused expression.

"Why do you want to go on a trip?" Reynold asked, looking puzzled.

"I want to travel to various places, just me and Charlotte." Ryan said to Reynold.

"How long?" Reynold then asked how long Ryan would be traveling.
