Chapter 612: Lenore's Choice
On the grass near the entrance of Melo Petersburg, Chang Ming looked at the girl in front of him with slightly red and swollen eyes, and once again asked the question he had just asked.
"So... do you plan to stay in Narcissus Cross as an "orphan", or do you want me to take you to find your last relative in the world right now?"
"For the current situation... I don't have any good suggestions. I can only say this - if you stay in Narcissus Cross Court, you can integrate into Fontaine more smoothly."
"Of course, you may lose some of the caring and loving care from your loved ones, that's for sure."
"If you choose to let me take you to find the only relative you have left in this world... you can grow up slowly under the love of your relatives, and come to Fontaine to go to school when you are old enough."
"But...it may take you quite a while to adapt to the living environment and pace of Fontaine."
After hearing Chang Ming's words, Linor thought for a while, then raised her head blankly and looked at Funina beside her.
And Funina pursed her lips helplessly, then half-knelt down, gently touched Linor's little head, and whispered to comfort her:
"This is your own life. How you want to live your life... is your own decision. We have no right to interfere."
"The purpose of the laws and rules of Fontaine is to allow every citizen of Fontaine to have the right to choose his or her own life path under any circumstances, and the same goes for you."
After hearing what Finina said, Linor nodded as if she understood, then she lowered her head slightly and fell into deep thought for quite a long time.
Chang Ming and Funina stood beside her patiently, waiting for her final result.
As time passed, Lenore raised her head slightly and said timidly to the two of them:
"Can I... choose to live in Narcissus Cross Courtyard and occasionally visit my last relative in this world...?"
Upon hearing this, Chang Ming and Funina were both stunned, with a look of surprise on their faces, as if they had not thought of this solution.
But in a sense... this seems to be the most suitable for Lenore's current situation.
If Lenore really chose to practice this method, wouldn't she be a resident student living in a college called "Fontaine"?
Every weekend, or every once in a while, I go home for a few days and come back when the time comes...
When you think about it this way...it seems quite reliable and feasible?
Thinking of this, Chang Ming subconsciously looked at Funina beside him, and they both smiled and shook their heads at the same time.
They should have known that Lenore was a very smart child. She knew what she should do and could always come up with a lot of solutions.
"...No, I can't?"
Linor's timid voice interrupted Chang Ming and Funina's sighs in their hearts, and they realized... they seemed to have not given this poor little girl a suitable answer.
Thinking of this, Chang Ming also leaned down and gently took Linor's little hand, wanting to provide her with some warm comfort.
"Yes, of course, but it's just that it can't be done in the near future."
"It may take about two weeks before this can be implemented. Are you willing to wait?"
Hearing Chang Ming's words, Linore was stunned at first, then she nodded quickly and smiled at Chang Ming.
"Yes! Of course! Thank you, Brother Chang Ming~"
"Okay~ Then we'll take you to Narcissus Cross Courtyard now~"
After saying that, Chang Ming glanced at Funina beside him, and she smiled and nodded as if she understood what he meant. Almost at the same time, she took Linor's little hand and returned to the previous state of a family of three.
As the sun gradually set, the three of them left the tearful meadow, and Lenore...will also start a new life tomorrow just like this sunset.
......
It was already evening after Lenore was settled in Narcissus Cross Court.
Looking at the street lights on the side of the street, a hint of sigh appeared on Funina's face.
"I never thought... that this is how the matter was finally resolved."
"Linol is such a smart kid. Even I didn't expect this solution."
Chang Ming smiled and shrugged, as if acknowledging the girl's intelligence.
As the regent of Fontaine, Chang Ming has seen many geniuses of all kinds, but he rarely calls someone "smart".
From this perspective, one can imagine how highly he thinks of Lenore.
"But compared to Lenore..."
As Chang Ming spoke, he gently grasped Funina's soft little hand, chuckled, pinched her little nose and said:
"I am still surprised that our Fu Fu could say that."
"When did I say that... more than two hundred years ago? I didn't expect you still remember it now?"
Feeling the touch of her nose and palms, Funina raised her little head proudly.
"Of course, I am the great Water Demon! You are the regent of Fontaine and my most important dependent! How could I forget what you said before?"
As Funina spoke, she winked gently at Chang Ming, looking like a playful and cute girl.
Looking at the girl in front of him who was as lively as ever, Chang Ming chuckled and shook his head, then he pulled Funina slightly towards him, and she did not resist at all.
In this way, the two former underground lovers finally got used to this intimate mode and naturally snuggled up to each other.
Fu Nina leaned her little head on Chang Ming's shoulder. She raised her head slightly, looked at the starry sky of Fontaine at night, and sighed softly:
"Chang Ming... Fontaine is so beautiful at night..."
"Yeah, it's really pretty."
"But..."
The girl tilted her head slightly, a touching blush appeared on her fair face. After a brief thought, she chose to peck Chang Ming lightly on the face.
"...It looks best when you're around."
Hearing this, Chang Ming was stunned at first. When he felt the wetness on his face, an extremely gentle smile appeared on his face.
"Then keep looking at it, and let this starry sky remain beautiful forever."
"Ok!"
In this way, the two slowed down their pace and walked leisurely on the streets of Fontaine, enjoying the rare time of relaxation.
However...as the regent of Fontaine, Chang Ming is almost always busy at the center of events.
Even this time is the same.
As the two were walking on the street, he suddenly felt the mark created by his own hand being shattered.
He looked towards the east side of Fontaine thoughtfully, as if he had realized something different.
"Chang Ming? What happened?"
Funina asked curiously.
"...Nothing big, just...we have to be busy again."
Chang Ming shrugged helplessly, then took Funina's hand and rushed towards where Ying was.
