Villain Princess.

"I.... I can try," Adela said, trying to be brave.

For some reasons, whenever she looked at Aurora, Adela always felt afraid as if she was being pressured. This made her remember the days when she was facing the strict principal and teachers in the past.

She felt really afraid.

But the person in front of her is her sister, so what should she fear about?

It was just that, Adela couldn’t help but feel afraid when she saw Aurora and thought about her ever since the last incident.

"In that case, shall we have a tea party with everyone for a test?" Aurora asked and looked at the other club members around her. Everyone was already used to Aurora’s words and during the tea party, they did learn a lot.

"Yes." Annelie smiled brightly. She liked the tea party the most.

Lucy also nodded, signifying that she was ready to have a tea party if Aurora wanted to.

The other girls all looked at each other and eventually agreed. There were several girls in this club room from various years. Some of them were older, but they wanted to join the club and Aurora didn’t stop them.

She had no opinion for these girls who wanted to join in.

"Ah, yes." Adela also nodded.

"Be more confident, Adela," Aurora said calmly as she stood up to prepare the utensils. "You’re a duke’s daughter."

Adela was stunned and nodded uncomfortably.

She also knew that she’s the duke’s daughter, but when facing Aurora like this, Adela always felt invisible pressure. She glanced at Crown Prince Edward timidly and saw him frowning.

Crown Prince Edward did feel that Aurora’s words were correct but at the same time, he felt that they were a bit too much.

It was just that he couldn’t really explain the reason why he felt this way.

"We’ll sit at the side." Leon waved his hand and walked to the edge of the room. He didn’t want to bother these girls when they have a tea party. Anyway, the tea ceremony club room was big enough.

Benny and Louis looked at Crown Prince Edward and seeing the latter nodded, they also followed Leon to the corner.

They had no interest to join in the tea party.

Now that Adela was alone, she sat on the chair and looked at the tea in front of her. It was a very common tea and Aurora had already served the tea for everyone. Her manner was elegant and her every move could be considered art.

Adela felt a bit envious.

Because she felt that those movements were really hard to do and even if she wanted to, she would never be able to do that in her entire life.

"You may add sugar or milk for your tea in accordance to your taste," Aurora said, reminding Adela since the others already knew this rule.

"Yes."

The others started to work on their tea, adding some sugar or some milk in accordance to their taste. Aurora herself added a few teaspoon of milk and then stir the tea in front of her gently.

The method to stir the teaspoon was to move it from the 6 o’clock position to the 12 o’clock position about 3 times or so. One should not swirl the tea around nor making a noise with the cup. One would risk scratching the cup and also made clanking sound, which was very unsightly for nobles.

Once the tea has been stirred properly, Aurora put the spoon behind the tea cup.

Her movements were done elegantly and gently.

It does look like art.

Annelie sighed deeply when she watched this. No matter how many times she watched Aurora served the tea or even as the guest and only drank the tea, watching her add some milk or sugar always made another beautiful view.

If only it was possible, she wanted to watch it for a longer time.

She herself add some sugar for her own tea and stir it in accordance to the etiquette taught to her.

Clank.

Hearing the faint clanking of the spoon to the cup, the other noble ladies raised their head and looked at Adela.

Adela looked a bit flustered as she tried to control her stirring. Her mother had already taught her how to stir the tea after adding some sugar and milk, but her movements were usually not very good.

This caused her movements to be rather stiff.

"Relax Adela, tea party is to be enjoyed and everyone is here to learn together," Aurora said with gentle tone.

When the other members first came, they were also not very good. Of course, they were a bit embarrassed, but since they wanted to be better, then Aurora would patiently taught them what they have to remember.

"I... I know." Adela trembled a bit and her body remained stiff.

The other girls felt that Adela’s situation was not right, but they didn’t say anything. In any case, Adela’s status was far higher than them and it was not their place to say anything to her.

This was the main problem for the nobility.

Even if they knew the one with the higher nobility was wrong, they didn’t dare to say anything to her blatantly. But their mocking eyes would be clear for the person who was wrong.

It was just that as long as they didn’t speak it out loud, they couldn’t really be convicted.

This was the case with Adela.

She might not look up, but she could feel that several pairs of eyes were looking at her every move.

This made her feel tremendous pressure.

Adela wanted to cry.

What kind of tea ceremony club is this?

It felt like a public execution instead of a club for learning.

"Stir the teaspoon was to move it from the 6 o’clock position to the 12 o’clock position about 3 times or so. Don’t swirl it around nor hit it to your cup," Aurora reminded in a gentle tone.

But in Adela’s ears, this felt more like the devil’s whisper.
