The nine people on the ground immediately scrambled into chaos, frantically picking themselves up off the floor.
Cecilia patted at non-existent dust on her skirt while letting out an awkward cough or two. Her gaze darted everywhere, nowhere daring to meet Primrose’s scrutinizing eyes.
Cecilia’s brain was spinning at full speed, trying to come up with a reasonable excuse to cover up their embarrassing eavesdropping behavior.
“Ahem… well… it’s nothing really, Goddess.”
“Oh? In the dead of night, instead of sleeping in your own rooms, you all came to discuss matters outside mine and Mother’s door?”
Primrose raised an eyebrow and let out a cold laugh.
“We… we were discussing matters! Yes, discussing matters!”
“And you discussed your way into falling through the door?”
Cecilia was left speechless by the rebuttal, sweat beading on her forehead from anxiety.
She gritted her teeth, steeled her resolve, and went all in.
“We were discussing… who gets to serve the Goddess in her sleep tonight!”
The moment that excuse left her mouth, the room plunged into dead silence.
“Huh? Serve me in my sleep?”
Primrose thought to herself, has this day finally come?
A couple of days ago, she could still rely on her authority to keep Cecilia from daring to act recklessly, but now with more people around, Cecilia’s courage seemed to have grown.
But no one knew that she had the soul of a male high school student, and having these soft, fragrant girls serve her in sleep—what tremendous torment that would be.
Standing off to the side, Dolores, upon hearing Cecilia’s desperate throwaway excuse, those golden eyes reflecting crossed patterns immediately lit up with frightening intensity.
Dolores seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity on the spot. She stepped forward, moving to the very front of everyone.
For some reason, Dolores was only wearing a sleepwear set that looked like a swimsuit—blue cups and panties with white lace, each held together by a single knot, large expanses of snow-white skin exposed to the air.
She’d probably come to eavesdrop without having had time to change into proper sleepwear.
Moreover, on Dolores’s face, which was usually as cold and expressionless as a finely crafted doll, a faint, alluring blush had actually appeared.
Her golden eyes gazed at Primrose with tender affection, a smile curving at the corners of her lips.
The next second, Dolores gently placed one hand over her chest, which was developing quite nicely.
“For this matter, naturally, I go first.”
Her voice wasn’t loud, still that same cool tone, but her words carried an unshakable conviction and sense of entitlement.
The moment Cecilia heard that, she bristled like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
She too stepped forward, looking at Dolores’s profile.
“And why you?”
“Earlier today in the Underground Fissure, didn’t you say you only needed to watch the Goddess from afar and quietly follow along?”
“What? Having second thoughts now?”
This chamberlain from the Church Nation, usually looking so cold and aloof like some ascetic Saintess—how come when it came to snatching the Goddess, she was more eager and shameless than anyone!
Dolores didn’t look at Cecilia. Her gaze remained fixed on Primrose.
“Because serving the Goddess in her sleep allows me to watch the Goddess more closely and better.”
“To revere from close range is also the greatest piety toward the divine.”
Cecilia gritted her teeth and shot back:
“What kind of twisted logic is that!”
“I am the Saintess of the Kingdom’s Sanctuary Council. In seniority and in purity of faith toward the Goddess, I rank ahead of you!”
“And this is Kingdom territory. If anyone gets to share the bed, it’s me first. Someone from the Church Nation like you can only obediently wait your turn.”
Dolores responded without changing her expression:
“I am the daughter of the Church Nation’s Archbishop, the future ruler of the Church Nation. My internal authority and strength both surpass yours, and the Goddess also glanced at me several times during the day.”
“That’s because the Goddess found you irritating!”
Cecilia shot back without mercy.
“No, that was the Goddess’s blessing upon me.”
Dolores remained expressionless.
Primrose watched these two women arguing fiercely before her over the so-called right to share her bed, tearing each other down, and felt a splitting headache coming on.
She rubbed her throbbing temples, about to open her mouth and drive all these rowdy troublemakers out of the room.
Lin Naiyue, who had been silently watching the whole scene from the side, suddenly let out a “pfft” laugh.
Lin Naiyue looked at the lively scene before her, and the gloom in her heart was completely swept away.
She snapped back to reality from the emotional heart-to-heart with her daughter just moments ago.
That’s right, her daughter was so popular with all these girls in this Otherworld.
So many beautiful, capable, high-born girls, all vying with each other just to sleep beside Prim.
As a mother, Lin Naiyue felt extremely pleased and proud.
She thought that girls getting along well and liking to stick together was the most natural thing in the world.
She looked at Cecilia, who was red in the face from arguing and just short of drawing swords for a duel, and Dolores, who wore a look of stubborn persistence and refused to yield an inch, and spoke up gently.
Lin Naiyue stepped forward, taking Cecilia by one hand and Dolores by the other.
“Alright, alright, stop arguing.”
“Since no one wants to leave and everyone wants to keep Prim company, then why not have everyone stay tonight and sleep together with Prim?”
The moment those words left her mouth, the entire room went dead silent.
Primrose looked at her mother in horror.
“Mom? Are you saying everyone should stay and sleep together?”
Although the bed in this room was a super large double bed, there was absolutely no way it could fit this many people!
No, it could fit, but it would definitely be cramped!
The key point was the cramped part!
And although her current body was a Goddess, her soul was a hundred percent man.
Sharing a big blanket with so many curvaceous, fragrant girls—this was absolutely the ultimate test of her willpower and her heart’s endurance!
But Lin Naiyue didn’t see anything wrong with it.
In her eyes, Prim was just an adorable girl, and these were all adorable girls too.
Girls sleeping together, having a little pajama party, chatting—how normal was that?
“What’s wrong? Is the bed not big enough?”
Lin Naiyue turned to look at that super large bed, gesturing with her hands.
“It’s fine, everyone can squeeze in and still fit. More people means warmer anyway.”
When Mother says the word, who dares to disobey?
Although Cecilia was a hundred percent unwilling to share the Goddess with Dolores, being allowed to stay and share the bed was already an incredible blessing. She immediately nodded in agreement like a pecking chick.
Dolores had no objections whatsoever.
For her, as long as she could get close to Primrose, never mind squeezing onto one bed—even if she had to sleep on the…
