Chapter 299: Reversing the Lesson on the Arrogant Elf Councilor, Mary Sue’s Second Teaching (2)
Shia watched, feeling a pang of sympathy.
He stepped forward and gently patted Nia’s shoulder.
Nia turned to him.
Are you sure?
She’s going to bite you.
Shia nodded firmly.
Certain.
Nia hesitated but eventually loosened her grip on White.
Though her entire posture remained on guard.
Shia sat down beside White, and at this close distance, he could feel the overwhelming sorrow emanating from her.
“Don’t be so hard on yourself.”
But those words didn’t do much to comfort White.
“I really am useless. I can’t even handle sothing this simple.”
“How is that true? Maybe we just haven’t found the right thod yet.”
White lifted her head, her icy face now carrying a faint hint of red in her eyes.
She bit her lip, hesitant—was that really the case?
“When you’re with Lilith, you don’t feel this way, do you?”
Shia observed her closely.
White froze.
After thinking about it, she hesitantly nodded.
That was true.
She had befriended Lilith because she didn’t feel that desire around her.
With Lilith, she felt normal.
Not so uncontrollable, depraved creature.
Shia’s face brightened with a wide smile.
“I have a new idea!”
He looked at White seriously.
“This will definitely work! Senior, do you trust one more ti?”
Maybe it was his infectious smile, but White’s eyes shimred with newfound hope.
She pressed her lips together, trying to suppress the upward curve.
Her earnest nod made her look just like a well-behaved Persian cat—obedient and ta.
For so reason, she found Shia incredibly trustworthy.
So much so that she could let go of her fears.

This ti, it would work, right?
Hope blood in White’s heart.
Even her pale skin seed to take on a warr glow.
Her gaze lingered on Shia, unable to look away.
Rong watched from the side and couldn’t help but comnt internally.
Is this really the sa cold, untouchable ice queen?
Senior, your persona is crumbling!
Rong nudged Nia’s arm.
“Who would’ve thought? The icy senior actually has this side to her?”
“I always thought she was unapproachable.”
“But now she looks so easy to talk to.”
“When she first ca looking for Master, I thought she was here to settle scores.”
“But now she seems so obedient.”
Rong kept mumbling in disbelief.
She was truly surprised.
Nia turned her gaze toward Rong.
Her eyes scanned her up and down before finally resting on her face.
Her expression, a knowing smile, seed to be saying sothing.
That look made Rong extrely uncomfortable.
She shuffled her feet uneasily.
“Why are you looking at like that?”
Nia recalled their first eting.
Who was the one standing there, cold-faced and speechless?
The one who acted all aloof?
If not for her ability to read thoughts, she would never have known that this supposedly cold and distant little girl had an entire monologue running through her head.
If it weren’t for ti and familiarity…
Rong turned her gaze away, unable to endure the scrutiny.
She seriously thought about what she had just said.
There was nothing wrong with it!
White’s contrast was just too drastic!
So why was Nia staring at her like that!?
She hadn’t said anything incorrect!
Hearing the constant internal rambling, Nia had the urge to knock so sense into her little head.
Have so self-awareness!
You socially awkward princess.
When Shia found Lilith, he had a serious expression, with a hint of excitent.
"Lilith, there's new progress with Senior White."
Being stared at like this made Lilith a bit uneasy, yet a little thrilled.
"Did it work?"
Lilith clenched her small pink fists, too excited to keep still.
"I got you an opportunity."
"Senior White has been practicing controlling her instincts lately."
"Rember when I told you she could co to for help?"
"She finally did."
"And I secured you a chance to be her training partner."
"It took a lot of effort to get you this."
"I’m so good to you, aren’t I?"
Shia flashed a wide grin, his expression carrying a hint of pride.
Was Lilith happy?
Of course she was.
She was ecstatic!
Training partner?
That ant more chances for close interaction!
Looking at her fiancé, who was seeking praise, Lilith cald down slightly.
Pushing girls was important, but she also had to comfort her puppy.
She bead, her gorgeous face glowing with joy.
"Thank you so much!"
"Without you, I wouldn’t know what to do."
"It’s so lucky to have you!"
"Shia, you’re the most important person to ."
Her affectionate gaze could make soone drown in it.
Sweet words and sugar-coated bullets—her expertise.
But despite her seemingly heartfelt gratitude, she made no real move to express it beyond words.
As always, she was just as mischievous.
And that was precisely why bullying her was guilt-free.
Shia’s smile beca even more genuine.
His real goal was to use this as an opportunity to deepen his fiancée’s involvent with him.
Helping White control her instincts was just a matter of efficiency.
"But if you just approach her like this, it won’t work."
Hearing this, Lilith’s smile faltered slightly.
She looked at Shia in confusion.
"Huh?"
Shia smiled, pulling her closer, speaking sincerely.
"You need to act more feminine so she doesn’t get suspicious."
"No one wants to cuddle with a female pervert, right?"
"So you have to make her think you like ."
Lilith scoffed.
"Do I need to?"
Anyone with eyes could see who her true destiny was!
Only she and White were ant to be together!
Confident as ever, Lilith believed she didn’t need to pretend.
She could rely on her own charm to win her over.
But in truth, she wasn’t eager to repeat past experiences.
Just recalling that scene made her uneasy.
One ti was bad enough—she had a feeling that if she went through it again, things would get much worse.
So her overconfidence was rely an excuse to avoid acting too feminine.
She understood Shia’s definition of femininity.
Being soft, submissive, and obedient to one’s man.
If she had feelings for Shia, such behavior would be expected.
But the problem was—she liked girls.
And because of that, the goddess detested her.
So she had to put on a façade, lower White’s guard, and gradually claim her spot by her side.
Of course, she wouldn’t admit this outright.
She lifted her chin high in confidence, but mories of that mont when she had helped Shia with his blood filled her mind.
Inside, she was trembling.
She had no desire to relive that experience.
