"What am I worried about? Aven, you're self-motivated! I'm worried about you!"
Jessica pushed her chair away and turned to leave the living room. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Evan looked at Jessica, who was leaving, and silently ate her bread.
"Evan Aven, Jessica......" Elizabeth felt that the world of adults was too complicated.
"It's okay, take your time. ”
Evan gulped down the food.
In the middle of the night, Carol woke up from her dream and found that this was not her home, but there was a non-dazzling light in the room, and a familiar uncle was dozing off in a rocking chair.
"Oh, little girl, are you awake?" Evan felt Carol get up and open his own eyes.
Carol looked around when she heard the voice, and then the tears flowed uncontrollably.
"Oh, good, don't cry, don't cry, uncle, let's do a magic trick for you!"
Someone who had anticipated this situation had been prepared.
Evan picked up the small milk pot that had been prepared next to him and poured some milk into it.
Then hold the milk pot in one hand and put the other hand under the pot.
Although Carol was still in tears, she also looked at it curiously.
"Burn!" Evan snapped his fingers in order to attract the little girl's attention.
The flames burned out of thin air above Aven's palm, and the sound of milk bubbling could be heard from the small milk pot in a few moments.
Carol had tears in her eyes and a look of shock on her face.
"Well, it looks like the milk is hot!" Evan smiled at Carol and poured the milk from the pot into the cup beside him.
"Well, drink the milk, and go to sleep, the night is still long. ”
Carol silently took the milk.
"Ai, Ai, I've slept well. Carol said after taking a sip of milk.
The temperature of the milk was just right, and the warm sensation made Carol very comfortable.
The thermostat on the cup flashed in a flash.
"So, would you like to talk to your uncle?"
Evan feels that the heart of a child is the purest, although this is a legal older Lori.
"Hmm!" Carol nodded, taking a sip of milk like a kitten.
Evan waited, looking at the little girl like a kitten.
"Hmm. After some time, Carol drank the milk completely and burped.
Looking at the little girl whose face was a little red, Evan didn't know if it was hot after drinking milk or blushing shyly.
"Ai, Uncle Aven. ”
"Yes, I'm listening!" Evan took the empty cup from the little girl's hand and placed it on the table behind him.
"I, I don't want to be with my dad, but I don't want to go to an orphanage like a kid on TV. I, am I going to be sent to some terrible aunt's house?"
Evan thinks that the little girl may have watched too much Harry Potter, where is there so many terrible aunts.
"Don't worry, people from the child welfare agency won't come to you so quickly, until then, you can live here, do you like it?"
Looking at the little child who nodded, Ai Wen was first relieved.
"So, will Uncle take you to see Dad tomorrow?"
At the mention of her father, there was a trace of fear and something unspeakable in Carol's eyes, and the little girl who had shaken her head nodded again, but her small hand grabbed the corner of Aven's clothes.
Evan remembered a girl who grabbed the corner of his clothes.
"Okay, Uncle Evan will go with you, don't worry, are you sleepy now?"
For the little ones, sleep is never enough.
Sure enough, after drinking the milk, Carol's eyes were about to close.
"Then go to the bathroom by yourself and go to bed obediently!"
"Hmm. ”
The little girl went down to the ground and put on her slippers.
"There's Elizabeth's pajamas in the bathroom, you're about her age, wear her tonight, and we'll go back to your house tomorrow. ”
Carol went into the bathroom for a while, and when she came out, she had changed into Elizabeth's bunny pajamas.
Looking at Carol, who was also like a little rabbit, Evan smiled and picked up the little girl and put her on the bed.
"Good night!"
"Good night, Uncle Aven, can you wait until I'm asleep before you leave?"
Looking at the little girl's expectant eyes, Evan nodded and smiled.
Carol obediently lay flat on the soft bed, covered with a bunny quilt, wearing bunny pajamas, and slowly closed her eyes.
Evan waited for the girl's breathing to stabilize before he took his holding hand away and walked out slowly, closing the door.
In fact, the moment I went out, it was already Christmas.
Rewind a few minutes to midnight, when Evan is talking to the little girl, Elizabeth is already asleep, Jessica is alone with her back to the window, and Loki is looking at the starry sky outside the living room window with her eyes open.
In an unmanned hall in the apartment, the refining array emitted an invisible light at the moment when the hour, minute, and second hands overlapped, and the red liquid in the center of the refining array exploded, and the mist filled the entire refining array.
After a long time, the mist was pulled by something in the center, and all of them converged, and a naked body appeared in the refining array.
"Ahh
Colleen sat naked in the refining array, looking at the empty hall with some confusion.
As if hearing a voice, Loki turned his gaze back to the stars.
Evan was lying alone on the bed, staring straight at the ceiling with his eyes open.
Colleen felt that she was not in good health, so she silently stood up and put on the clothes on the chair beside her, and after tidying up, she opened the only door in the hall.
Outside the door was a hallway, one that Colleen was familiar with, as she had also been to her Manhattan apartment.
"Well, we'll talk about that tomorrow. Colleen looked down the dark hallway and found a room where she usually lived and went to sleep.
Manhattan, early in the morning.
Tony and Pepper, who had originally said that they would come to visit Evan last night, had just gotten off the plane at this time, and then the car drove downstairs to Evan Apartment.
As for why the two didn't come last night, this is a secret that children don't need to know.
Tony and Pepper went to the living room where everyone usually eats, and when they opened the door, they saw a lot of people.
"Wow! Are there all the people today? Let me see, Elizabeth, the big alien, Jessica, oh, and a little lady I haven't seen before, and Lolicon Aven!"
Evan silently ate the fruit cake that he had intended to feed to the little girl next to him.
Pepper saw this and gave Tony a blank look, and the two of them sat in their seats.
Loki cooperated and brought the cutlery up.
Breakfast was buffet style with a variety of food in the middle of the table.
Tony had taken a cup of coffee for himself, and he and Pepper had already had breakfast.
"I'm relieved to see you so energetic and find a new Lori.,It's said that Lolita is immortal.,I think you think so too!"
In the face of Tony's taunts, Evan decides to break the jar.
"Carol, a strawberry cake?" Evan picked up another cream cake and handed it to the little girl.
"Thank you, Uncle Aven. ”
The little girl had just cried when she woke up in the morning, and now her eyes were still a little red.
Elizabeth filled Carol's cup with milk on the sidelines.
"Tsk!" Tony's expression was unbearable.
"Aven, you don't have any damage to what happened yesterday. Although Pepper was not very worried, Evan was much more relaxed when he saw that he was fine.
But the little girl beside Ai Wen instantly burst into tears.
"Woooooooo As soon as Carol cried, the whole table was busy.
Tony looks dumbfounded, and Pepper doesn't understand what's going on.
"Carol's mom was right at the door during the explosion yesterday. Jessica walked over and said.
Pepper realized what he had said wrong, and immediately apologized, "I'm sorry, I didn't know such a sad thing happened, please mourn." ”
But the little girl, I don't understand this, but fortunately, the emotions come and go quickly, and she laughs out loud after a while under Aven's teasing.
But it's still pear blossoms with rain.
After that, the atmosphere of the meal became very awkward, but fortunately, when Tony came, Evan and his friends had already eaten almost enough, and Tony and Pepper were not embarrassed for long.
"Jessica, ...... Today"
"Aiwen, there are still many jobs in the company, so I won't accompany you!"
After last night, Jessica's attitude has become a little ambiguous.
But Evan didn't care, and watched Jessica leave first.
Tony wanted to say something, but was pulled out of the apartment by Pepper.
"Evan Evan, I'll leave Carol to you today! We'll spend Christmas together in the evening, Carol!"
"Well, goodbye, Sister Elizabeth!"
Elizabeth changed into a suit, and Loki also took off her apron, put on a black suit and sunglasses, and followed out.
The red dust cleared, and in the end, only Evan and Carol were left alone in the living room.
"Dididi!" Evan noticed a cell phone on the table, which seemed to be left by Jessica.
"Teacher Aiwen, I have a mission for Christmas, so I won't be looking for you recently! By the way, don't worry about the previous matter, S.H.I.E.L.D. will cover up this matter, it's just the explosion of the aging pipeline, and Mandalin is no longer there!"
Skye's voice came out.
"Mandarin?"
"Hmm, Aven, what's wrong?"
"It's okay, be careful when you go out on a mission, remember to be proficient in using alchemy to help yourself!"
"Okay! Goodbye Mr. Aven. ”
The phone hung up, and Evan thought it would be nice to have someone who called him his teacher.
Do you want to develop Skye into your own downline?
Evan was still thinking about it, and his first offline appeared.
"Aven, you're going to die for me!" Colleen pushed open the door, and saw that there was only Evan and an older Lori in the room.
"Oh, don't cry, don't cry, oh, Aven, why don't you coax!"
Maybe Colleen's voice was too loud, and Carol's eyes were red, and tears fell from her eyes.
"Tsk, Colleen, you're still so hot, okay, if you're bored, you might as well go out with me, I'll explain what you want to know on the way!"
Colleen nodded, and ran to the little girl, teasing and coaxing.
"Sister Colleen, Mommy is gone!" Carol still wanted to give Colleen a Christmas present at the café, but now seeing Colleen reminded her of her mother.
"Well, it's okay, don't cry, me too, my mother also disappeared when I was very young. ”
Colleen walked to the side with the little girl in her arms.
Evan watched Colleen and Carol talking and laughing, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Unexpectedly, Colleen, who seems to be a big strip, still has the potential to be a good mother.
