A Sweet Girl Won't Be Fooled By The Villainess - [Vol. 4] Chapter 28

[Vol. 4] Chapter 28: Loving a Person is Like Raising Flowers

After being confident in her foolproof plan, Ifia immediately lost her worries between her eyebrows. She leisurely observed the interaction between Prince Carloy and Irene, offering some casual comments.

Apart from Irene’s humble attitude, Prince Carloy seized every opportunity to strike various poses, eliciting excited exclamations from the onlooking girls, as if they had never seen a man in eight hundred lifetimes.

Ifia curled her lips, despite Prince Carloy’s good looks, she found him very unpleasant and had the urge to secretly put a sack over his head and give him a good beating to make herself feel more cheerful.

Clearly, Amelia is more attractive!

Whether it’s charming and beautiful or heroic and impressive, Amelia embodies all the types of dream lovers.

Thinking this, Ifia couldn’t help but look at Amelia, and then intentionally took a few steps closer, saying, “Amelia, when it’s our turn later, I’ll express, and you guess. It can be…”

Originally, Ifia thought that by letting Amelia strike some poses, she could outshine Prince Carloy, drawing more cheers from the fangirls and fanboys.

However, as she spoke, Ifia hesitated.

She knew how wonderful Amelia was, so why should she let others know too?

In an instant, possessiveness surged, causing Ifia to swallow the words she hadn’t finished saying.

Afterward, quickly replacing, “I’ve come up with a fantastic plan that can definitely defeat Prince Carloy!”

“Oh?”

Amelia was quite familiar with Ifia’s tendency to come up with all sorts of imaginative and whimsical scenarios, so she didn’t question the pause before but was more curious about what Ifia’s brilliant plan was.

Due to her desire for the Camus territory, Amelia would never lose in the gambling game. As a demon, using a few tricks would easily secure her victory. There was no need to worry about anything else.

Whether such methods were considered unfair was, in Amelia’s perspective, laughable when dealing with demons and principles.

However, Ifia, the little one, always envisioned beautiful scenarios that ended up in consecutive failures in practical execution.

For example, in the past, when she suddenly wanted to do something provocative to her, the results always led to a counterattack.

Although such outcomes pleased Amelia, the pleasure from intimate contact always lasted for a while, providing the demon with a satisfying sense of satiety.

“Afterwards, we’ll rely on this little treasure!”

Ifia didn’t say much, just raised her hand with a proud look, giving a pat to the pendant of the delicate pocket watch hanging at her waist. The fine chain of the pocket watch trembled and clashed, making Amelia take a glance and immediately understand Ifia’s plan.

I see.

Quite clever indeed.

However, what she told Ifia before about the ‘Tears of Truth’ not being able to read the thoughts of someone with a strong will was a lie.

In reality, Amelia uses magic to shield herself, making it naturally impossible to successfully hear thoughts. The backlash from the failed mind-reading is just a demon’s ability. After all, a simple mind-reading technique poses no challenge for a demon.

In the past, Amelia did not use mind-reading on Ifia, partly because Ifia’s thoughts were too shallow, and Amelia could guess them from facial expressions alone.

Another reason was to give Ifia some freedom within certain bounds. Demons’ possessiveness can be off-putting, and Amelia, well aware of this, knew to avoid that pitfall by suppressing her demonic nature.

Compared to Ifia, who might feel forced and troubled by mind-reading, Amelia prefers the cheerful version of her, the one who smiles with an open heart, vibrant like a sunflower, always full of energy.

Loving a person is like raising flowers.

Amelia will nurture this adorable flower named Ifia with care.

Ifia’s thoughts are simple, and the way to make her happy is straightforward – just a little praise is enough.

“Ifia, you’re really clever.”

Whenever Amelia praises her, although there are no fancy words, her expression is genuinely sincere. Her purple eyes gaze directly, showing no signs of insincerity or falsehood.

Therefore, each time Ifia hears her praise, it brings her joy.

This time was no exception. The ingenious method that came to Ifia’s mind to earn Amelia’s praise couldn’t be contained, and her lips curved into a delightful smile, lifting the corners of her eyes.

Even when Prince Carloy and Irene completed the game, learning of their impressive performance with only one wrong guess out of ten words, Ifia’s smile remained undiminished. Amelia praised her for being clever!

(>_<)

Now armed with her secret weapon, Ifia had no reason to fear.

Proudly stepping into the competition area, Ifia, armed with the powerful tool, casually activated the mind-reading ability of the ‘Tears of Truth.’ However, as usual, there was no feedback when she looked towards Amelia.

Sigh!

Although the game required the backlash from a failed mind-reading, Ifia still had a tiny bit of anticipation, hoping to secretly hear Amelia’s thoughts.

She was super curious!

As Ifia felt a slight disappointment, the host handed over the word cards and announced the official start of the game. Despite having the cheat artifact, a positive attitude towards the game was also necessary.

Ifia lowered her head to look at the first word card, and it had the word [cat] written on it. This was simple. Even without cheating, she could clearly express it.

With full confidence, Ifia stood in place, about to perform the typical cat gesture of licking her paws to Amelia.

Unexpectedly, before she could do so, Amelia took the initiative to speak.

“Cat.”

???

(°o°)

Both Ifia, who hadn’t expressed anything yet, and the host, who hadn’t reminded about the word range, looked at Amelia in confusion, along with the crowd of onlookers.

Even with great understanding between them, it was impossible for Amelia to guess the answer without doing anything!

“Are you sure the correct answer is [cat]?” asked the host.

“Sure.”

“Congratulations, you’re correct. Continue to the next one!”

After a brief moment of confusion, the host quickly reacted and announced the game to continue. Perhaps, there was a special way of communication between the two, not entirely impossible.

However, no one expected that the friendship between the noble and elegant Duke’s daughter, Miss Barlen, and the commoner student Ifia was genuine. It was truly enviable!

While the host was expressing his admiration, Ifia was constantly thinking in her mind, ‘Amelia, there are people watching, don’t win too outrageously!!!’

On the other side, receiving Ifia’s inner groundhog squeals, Amelia smiled.

She did it on purpose.

Ifia’s cute actions as a kitten should be performed in private!

She didn’t want others to see.

However, to appease the irritable Ifia, Amelia answered the questions honestly afterward without any more surprises.

The two of them had a seamless and tacit cooperation, far stronger than Prince Carloy and Irene’s combination, completely overwhelming their opponents. After correctly answering all ten word cards, the final winner was decisively determined.

Prince Carloy was destined to lose his territory.

However, evidently, he couldn’t accept such an outcome. Initially confident after answering nine word cards correctly and firmly believing in winning the bet, he now found himself empty-handed, just one step away from victory.

In the midst of his burning anger, he thought about how Ifia, without making any movements, had her word cards guessed by Amelia. Prince Carloy immediately seized on the crucial point.

It must be a conspiracy between Amelia Barlen, and the host. They must have known the contents of the word cards in advance to answer correctly.

“Amelia Barlen, you…”

Prince Carloy, thinking he had uncovered the truth, was eager to expose it.

However, just as he uttered Amelia Barlen’s names, he suddenly couldn’t continue speaking.

When he locked eyes with the deep purple gaze, faint flashes of red light could be discerned.
