It was only then Neil realized that he had sat the whole afternoon in the tailor shop with a bare upper body.

Not many people came this afternoon to tailor or collect clothes, but the few of them that did were frightened when

they saw someone like this sitting in the shop.

Although the man looked handsome, his scowl was dark, and he had his upper body bare… He did not seem decent

at all!

This was how Neil managed to deter the few customers they had.

He had pulled the buttons of his shirt, so he could not wear it either. He sighed and put on the shirt, tying the ends

of it together since there were no buttons and vaguely revealing his solid chest.

He was going to leave when Aurelia came in with a bowl of cold rose-flavored jelly.

The first thing she said when she saw him was: “Why are you still here!?”

She then hid the jelly to herself and said, “This… This is mine.”

Neil felt speechless and suddenly thought the girl was a fool. Yeah, he was famous and charismatic. How did he run

into such a fool!?

Aurelia thought about it. The man had been there for the whole afternoon. He must be hot and thirsty. He was also

used to being served and did not even know to pour himself a glass of water.

Aurelia slowly placed the jelly on the table and ran to the back to retrieve an empty bowl to share half of the jelly

with him.

She grinned obsequiously. “Uncle, you have some too!”

Neil took a glance.

The jelly glistened like a crystal, and he could see the rose petals inside. When he sniffed it, there was a faint floral

fragrance. It must taste refreshing.

It was obvious that Aurelia made this.

Neil swallowed but sat unmoved. He suddenly remembered something Zephyr had told him.

Back when Cordelia had just found out about his real identity, she had parted with him and avoided him because

she could not accept it. Even when she did not talk to him or regard him, he would follow her shamelessly every

day.

One time, Zephyr had followed her again, and she had gone to have a bowl of shrimp ravioli. She had asked for

another empty bowl looking at him and had shared half of it with him.

According to Zephyr, he had been overjoyed and had nearly teared up.

After listening to him, Neil had been disdainful and had commented with a scoff, “Well done!”

It was his turn now… He had to admit that he wanted to give himself the same comment he had given Zephyr when

Aurelia shared half of her jelly with him.

“Uncle?” Aurelia blinked big eyes at him. “Why aren’t you eating?”

Neil cleared his throat and asked her to eat it first.

Aurelia smiled shyly. When she ran out of the shop at noon, her heart had been popping with pink bubbles, just like

this bowl of rose-flavored jelly. She liked him but had never dared make it known.

Now that Neil liked her too, she was both happy and worried.

She was smart, so there was no way she could not recognize that the princess liked Neil. Perhaps the princess was

Neil’s match, given her status, while she was only a passerby in his life…

“Aurelia.”

Neil’s deep voice suddenly rang in her ear. She snapped out of her trance and met his eyes.

“Uncle… what is it?”

“I have something to ask you.”

“Mm.”

“You…” Neil hesitated. “How long do you plan to stay in Southeast Aciatic to get citizenship?”

Aurelia did not expect him to ask about this so suddenly.

“You said that with the temporary residence permit, citizenship is automatically granted as long as I stay here for

15 years, so I…”

“Are you really waiting for 15 years?” Neil squinted. “If there’s a chance to shorten this period, do you want it?”
