Let's rewind to a short while ago. Lycaon and Lina were both somewhat surprised to see Ellen arrive for work as usual.
"Ellen, has Wise already told you about him and Kelin?" Lina asked with some hesitation. Lycaon remained silent beside her.
Hearing this, Ellen subconsciously nodded. "Mhm, he told me... wait, no!" It was only then that Ellen remembered what Wise and Kelin had said in the morning. She had been so tired at the time that she had just hung up and gone back to sleep, not thinking about the meaning of their words at all. It was only now, reminded by Lina, that she suddenly realized: Kelin was with Wise so early in the morning, and the meaning of her words...
Thinking of this, Ellen's expression darkened slightly. Although she had long been prepared for this kind of situation, and had even considered that Lina might also get involved, she still couldn't help but feel a little angry now that it had actually happened. Her teeth itched, and she wanted to give Wise a few good bites! But even though she thought this, looking at Lina and Lycaon in front of her, Ellen could only temporarily endure it. She would settle the score with Wise later.
...
Back to the present.
After Wise dropped Kelin off at Victoria Housekeeping, before Lycaon could even speak, Ellen pulled him aside first. Lycaon, seeing this, didn't say much. Ellen had told him earlier that she wanted to have a good talk with Wise in person when he arrived. Kelin, seeing this, hesitated, wanting to follow, but was stopped by Lina.
"Little Kelin, Ellen wants to have a good talk with Wise. Let's not disturb them for now. Also, the clothes in your hand, are those from yesterday?" Lina's gaze was sharp as she looked at the bag in Kelin's hand. Although the clothes inside had been washed and were neatly folded, she could still detect some faint traces on them, like bloodstains... There was no battle, so why would there be bloodstains? The answer was self-evident.
Kelin, however, shyly avoided the topic. "N-nothing, they just got dirty by accident yesterday, so Miss Rina gave me a dress, and big brother Wise also took me to buy some." Kelin's face was slightly red, her eyes darting away, clearly trying to hide what had really happened. But how could that be possible?
Setting aside her guilty demeanor, considering what had happened before, probably only someone with a personality as innocent as Kelin's would fail to guess the truth.
Lina didn't press the matter and instead started talking with Kelin about her experiences with Wise outside today. Lycaon, on the side, remained silent, but his pair of snow-white wolf ears twitched sensitively.
Meanwhile, the door to the room on the side was tightly closed.
Ellen stood with her arms crossed, her lips pursed and her eyes closed, looking like she was sulking. Wise, on the other hand, was hugging her from behind with an apologetic expression, his cheek touching hers, whispering apologies in a soft voice.
"Ellen, I was wrong. What I did this morning was not right. I just thought your sleepy, dazed voice was so cute, and I wanted to tease you a bit. I also wanted to finish quickly so you could go back to sleep. I can't bear to see my cute little shark looking so tired."
Hearing this, Ellen's angry expression began to falter. Wise took the opportunity to gently hold her small chin, and without much effort, made her look at him.
"Hmph, you're all talk. Who's the one who makes me the most tired?" Ellen couldn't help but glare at Wise, the anger in her voice having diminished considerably. The reason she was angry wasn't because of Kelin's addition, but because of how Wise had fooled her this morning. But now, after hearing him say this, she wasn't as angry anymore. It seemed Ellen's personality was actually very easy to coax. So, Wise took the opportunity to tease her again.
"So that's what Ellen was thinking? Then should I reduce the number of times I come to see you in the future?" Wise said this deliberately, but his hands didn't stop, a slight smile on his face because he really couldn't hold it in.
Hearing this, Ellen's brow furrowed, and the resentment in her heart resurfaced. Without another word, she grabbed the fingers Wise was using to hold her chin and bit down. Feeling the two rows of sharp teeth and soft lips clamp down on his finger, though there wasn't much force, Wise still cooperatively began to beg for mercy. Only then did Ellen let go with satisfaction.
"Hmph, if you dare to trick me again next time, I won't be biting your finger!" As she spoke, her sharp gaze pointed to a certain part of Wise's body, sending a chill down his spine.
"Don't worry, I guarantee there won't be a next time. Otherwise, may I be... done to death by all of you together."
"You... you wish." Ellen really didn't know what to say. After all, that kind of death was something many people dreamed of. Besides, for Wise, was it even possible for him to die from exhaustion?
After their talk, the two didn't stay in the room any longer. After all, if they stayed any longer, they might be misunderstood.
Seeing Wise and Ellen walk out calmly, their clothes neat and tidy, with no signs of having fought or argued, it was clear that Ellen had forgiven Wise. Lina and Lycaon didn't know what to say. Only Kelin walked over timidly.
"Miss Ellen... I-I'm sorry, I..." Although she had already apologized on the phone, seeing her in person, Kelin still couldn't suppress the guilt in her heart. But Ellen interrupted her before she could continue.
"It's okay, Kelin. I understand." Ellen then looked at Wise beside her. Although it was just two short sentences, they said a lot.
Wise, being the person in question, just smiled after feeling everyone's gazes. He couldn't help it; there were still outsiders present. Otherwise, he would have probably pulled both of them into his arms and reenacted the famous scene: "You are both my wings."
After handling matters here, Wise planned to leave first. Although Lycaon had something he wanted to say, he was too proud to say it to his face. In the end, he could only send a message after Wise had left.
'Remember to use safety measures.'
Such an inexplicable sentence, yet Wise instantly understood its meaning. What a fatherly mentality, he thought to himself, and sent back an affirmative reply.
Not long after Wise left, Lina and the two little ones floating beside her began to give Kelin a physical examination, just as they had done for Ellen before. In the end, there were no problems, but to be safe, Lina still gave Kelin some medicine to take.
