Ah ah ah ah ah--!
The sudden appearance of a father figure is just too bizarre!
Especially since this father might have an ambiguous relationship with Seele!
"But thinking about it carefully, all these years, Mom..."
Is it really that hard?
Bronya, who originally wanted to be considerate of her mother, suddenly realized that her mother hadn't had any pressure to raise her children all these years.
Cocolia, putting aside everything else, is absolutely capable, and she manages the orphanage perfectly.
When I was a child... I wasn't the kind of kid who caused trouble, was I?
"..."
So maybe my mother is just feeling empty, lonely and cold?
Bronya turned on the tap and splashed water on her face to cool down and clear her head.
how to say……
The reason given as "emptiness, loneliness, and coldness" is ridiculous, but it's also hard to refute. After all, this reason is entirely a private matter, and as a daughter, it's not appropriate for me to strongly oppose it.
But... but...
But is the world crazy or is she crazy?
Bronya continued washing her face.
If you only mention that she has multiple stepfathers, she might be relatively calm.
But this stepfather is Liu Bai...
Putting aside how messy the romantic relationships are around Liu Bai, Xier's situation alone is difficult to handle!
Not to mention that in Bronya's mind, Liu Bai's niche was that of an older brother—the two of them were only about five or six years apart in age.
Such a change...
"But wouldn't they 'shamelessly try to steal a man from a little girl'...?"
Cocolia's last words, tinged with a deeper meaning, echoed in Bronya's mind.
Seele... I guess she's a little girl?
Yes! Seele is definitely a little girl! A little girl her mother watched grow up!
No matter what Mom says, she wouldn't steal Xi'er's man, right?
Bronya simply couldn't imagine this scene.
Bronya breathed a sigh of relief after finding a solution. She also felt a slight urge to urinate, so she went to the toilet and washed her hands before returning to bed.
...and then I lost all sleepiness.
Nightmares and cold water completely dispelled Bronya's sleepiness.
After failing to force herself to sleep with her eyes closed, Bronya very readily gave in to her desires, turned on her bracelet, put on her headphones, and turned down the brightness, preparing to watch some videos.
"Let's see if there are any game videos today... Ugh, these news pop-ups from marketing accounts are so annoying."
Bronya swiped away the pop-up marketing news articles one by one.
"Bronya will hack these marketing accounts one day..."
Bronya's fingers suddenly froze after scrolling through the last news item.
Wait a minute, wasn't that marketing account's headline pretty amazing?
—Although all the marketing accounts' headlines are quite sensational.
"What...what was that title just now?"
Women, nieces, husbands...
Bronya only vaguely remembered those three words from her glance.
However, a website's marketing accounts can only publish a few thousand sensational news articles a day, and once the push notifications are swiped away, the entire news disappears without a trace.
Can you make a sentence using these three nouns?
Should we use keywords?
Bronya pursed her lips, took a deep breath, and after making up her mind, typed three nouns into the field.
The next moment, the first line of the intelligent recommendation was "Shocking! A single mother actually did this with her niece's husband!"
As expected, this title is full of trashy vibes.
And why can't it just be written as nephew-in-law?
...Okay, the phrase "niece's husband" might be more direct and eye-catching.
Niece... niece...
Bronya glanced at Seele beside her.
Seele... I guess she's my niece?
No, she might not even be considered a niece!
Seele and her mother have no blood relation whatsoever!
Although it's a mess, it seems like she's the only one in the orphanage with two mothers.
Everyone else's mother is Cocolia.
Alexandra and Cocolia are just friends...
Isn't this relationship in a very bad state?
…………
"Ha... Good morning, Bronya... Sister Bronya, you last night..."
"Hmm? What happened last night? Bronya slept very well last night."
"..."
Seele froze as she stretched after getting up. Looking at the bloodshot eyes in Bronya's eyes, Seele wanted to say something, but then felt like she shouldn't speak.
"Stop stretching lazily, it's time to get up... Ha..."
Bronya couldn't help but yawn.
How could I possibly sleep well?
If it weren't her biological mother involved, but her godmother Cocolia, Bronya wouldn't bother with this.
Last night, Bronya pondered the question, "What if my mother really becomes shameless?"
The final conclusion is...
no way.
I've been thinking about this all night!
But there's really nothing she can do about this! How can she stop her own mother from being shameless on a reasonable request?
Yes, although this is a bit of a mess, it is indeed a reasonable request from one's own mother.
Just like Cocolia said, it's all about pursuing happiness!
A widow who had been widowed for nearly twenty years remarried after raising her daughter.
Looking at this matter alone, it seems perfectly reasonable! So reasonable that it's almost beyond reproach.
Even if this man himself is promiscuous...
(On the bright side, even my own mother might not succeed...)
Bronya comforted herself inwardly.
There are still many women with significant age differences and other disparities in their circumstances, so Liu Bai might not necessarily be interested in them.
So if Liu Bai completely ignores her own mother, should she be angry or happy?
These questions seem to be getting more and more perplexing...
"Bronya, are you really alright?"
As Seele got out of bed to wash up, she noticed Bronya's furrowed brows and became very worried.
"Is it okay? Do I look that bad?"
"...Very bad."
After Seele answered, Bronya pinched the bridge of her nose.
Is my complexion so bad that Seele can tell?
"You can talk to Seele about your troubles."
"I was just reflecting on my match with Silver Wolf yesterday."
Bronya told a lie—the truth was simply impossible to tell Seele!
Does this mean they need to ask Seele to look after their own mother?
I just can't say it. No matter how thick-skinned I am, I just can't bring myself to say it!
"This...is like this."
Seele vaguely sensed that her sister was lying to her, but Bronya's attitude made it difficult for her to press the matter further, so she could only nod reluctantly.
"If you're really having any troubles, Bronya, you must come and find Seele."
"……I will."
Hope not.
This is the truth.

"Rand, how have you been lately?"
Inside the Dust Song Pot, Cocolia Land received a phone call from Cocolia.
"Hmm... Aside from being a little lonely, everything's fine?" Cocolia Rand glanced at the Herrscher of Domination making breakfast in the kitchen.
After the Chi You incident, only she and the Ruler of Domination remained in the Dust Song Pot.
Oh, and there's a new, big whale too.
"Were you ignored by Mr. Liu Bai?"
"Stop joking, isn't it just because someone's 'witch' title is too famous?" Cocolia Rand had a very good attitude.
After all, he is a national leader who has experienced great ups and downs. It's hard to say about other things, but his mentality is definitely very stable.
They were completely unaffected by any connection to the local Cocolia.
There's really no way to deal with this; the person who makes the most public appearances in the Anti-Entropy military is the "Witch" Cocolia.
Although not the actual head of the anti-entropy military, he was the most famous anti-entropy officer.
Whenever she goes out, a lot of people will mistake her for a native Cocolia.
Those who feel a significant difference between her and the native Cocolia are people who have actually met the native Cocolia.
For an ordinary intelligence agent, what difference could there be between her in the photo and the native Cocolia in the photo?
Oh, the only difference might be that the native Cocolia has a more exposed chest.
In reality, there is no difference.
So, to avoid trouble, Cocolia simply decided not to go out unless absolutely necessary.
"Sorry sorry."
There was absolutely no hint of apology in Cocolia's tone.
The title "witch" was a compliment from her enemies to her cunning and ruthlessness.
