You Have Ulterior Motives Toward Our Little Five

1/4/2026

"I don't care! I want a Golden Chalice Bloom!" Ryan Lu pouted.

"Here you go again! The house is full of Golden Chalice Blooms—haven't you seen enough yet?" Lucia Lu said coolly.

Because it's her favorite flower, they kept a lot of them at home.

"That's not the point!"

"Then what's the point?"

"It means you don't care about me!" Ryan Lu protested angrily. "I'm your real brother! Why do you give your favorite Golden Chalice Bloom to him instead of me?"

Ryan Lu pointed accusingly at Sean Shaw.

Lucia Lu opened her mouth, glanced at Sean Shaw, and for a moment was actually at a loss for words.

She... she honestly didn't know why she gave the Golden Chalice Bloom Flower Egg to him at the time...

"Whoa!" Adrian Drake suddenly called out in a purposely cheeky voice. "Senior sister, what's going on here? You had two Golden Chalice Bloom Flower Eggs—one you kept for yourself, and the other you gave to Fifth Highness Sean. Ha! Ha!"

"Oh my god! I think I just stumbled on a huge secret!" Harvey Quinn and Kane Xi egged everyone on, like they couldn't wait for more chaos.

"It's just a Flower Egg! What's the big deal?" Snow Yuan grumbled, clearly annoyed they were teasing her precious Sean.

"Divine Lady Snow, you might not know this," Kane Xi grinned. "The Luminous Golden Chalice Bloom is unique to our Lumina Realm! It's gorgeous, radiant, and the fragrance lasts forever—the flower means the most beautiful kind of love where we come from!"

Adrian Drake: "Wow! Senior sister, so you actually have ulterior motives toward our Little Five—"

"What are you talking about!" Lucia Lu's face turned bright red in an instant. "I just grabbed one at random!"

Adrian Drake: "You bought over twenty Flower Eggs, and just 'randomly' gave your most beloved Luminous Golden Chalice Bloom Egg to Little Five, huh? Hmm?"

At that moment, Ryan Lu pointed at Lucia Lu like he'd discovered a new continent: "Whoa! You're actually blushing!"

Lucia Lu: "..."

She honestly wanted to strangle Ryan Lu!

Ryan Lu sidled up to Adrian Drake, eyeing Lucia Lu: "Adrian, have you ever seen her blush before?"

"Come on! Senior sister is always righteous and bossy! Blushing? That's impossible for her!"

Adrian Drake raised his eyebrows, grinning mischievously: "But what's up today? Did senior sister put on blush or something? No wonder you look extra pretty!"

Lucia Lu started weaving a spell in her hand, ready to make those two 'look pretty'—in her own way.

Adrian Drake instantly clapped a hand over his mouth: "Okay, okay! I'll stop! Just kidding! Don't take it seriously, everyone! She definitely just 'randomly' picked it! It just so happened that she 'randomly' gave the Golden Chalice Bloom to Little Five and 'randomly' tossed the ugly Orchard Thorn ball to her brother—"

"Adrian!" Lucia Lu glared at him.

Adrian Drake just grinned back at her.

Then he rolled his eyes over to Little Five.

Ever since he got back, Sean Shaw had been surrounded by a gloomy chill that wouldn't go away.

Yesterday when Adrian tried to visit, Sean had shut him out and wouldn't let him in.

But now, he was a totally different Little Five.

The corners of his lips lifted just a tiny bit, and his whole demeanor softened.

Especially when his gaze drifted over to senior sister—there was something sweet, almost honeyed, in his eyes.

"Are you guys done discussing yet?" Snow Yuan suddenly stood up. "If not, I'm leaving!"

"Yeah, stop joking around," Jumin Jing added. "My cousin's still young. She doesn't understand any of this!"
