Chapter 7: Aisley
I sat bored in my seat and listened to the white-haired old professor on the podium babble in English and speak impassionedly about things I didn't understand for the most part. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info lowered his head helplessly, flipped through the textbooks on the table, and really hoped that what was written on it was Chinese.
With Aisley by my side as my personal translator these days, I feel that many things have gone a lot smoother, especially when I am listening to the lectures. But why hasn't Ace come back after going to the toilet for so long? Is it constipation?
I put my hand on my cheek and looked at the white-haired professor on the podium for a while, shook my head and sighed. He looked around for a moment, then sneaked out while everyone wasn't looking.
Searching for the toilet finally found it, but there was no one inside.
"Strange! Where did Ashley go? ”
I slowly walked out of the bathroom, looked at the somewhat empty hallway, and used the power of my blood to begin probing Ashley's location. Finally found her breath in a corner near the school building, and it seemed that there was another stranger's breath.
I followed my breath to the corner, and as soon as I got closer, I smelled the faint smell of blood in the air. After frowning, I quickened my pace.
Owen once said that Essley had just transformed, and her control over herself was not so strong, so it wouldn't be Ashley attacking people!
As soon as she turned into the corner, she saw Ashley holding a girl against the wall, biting her neck. The girl appeared to be unconscious, but not in danger of her life.
"Ashley!" I shouted.
Ashley heard my voice, her teeth leaving the girl's neck, and turned to look at me, the corners of her mouth covered in bright red blood, and her eyes turned scarlet.
I grabbed her shoulders and shook them, and said to her, "Ashley, wake up!" ”
"Sister Xiaoxiao, I'm fine!" Soon Ashley recovered from her previous state, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and smiled at me.
I looked at her a little strangely, puzzled. Under normal circumstances, vampires are rarely able to stay calm like this after sucking fresh blood, especially if they are not strong in self-control after just transformation. But why do I think that Ashley was not deceived by blood, but that there was some other reason for her to do so?
She turned slowly, then walked over to the girl and crouched down. When I saw her like this, I thought she couldn't control it anymore, so I hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed her: "Acely, don't be fooled anymore!" ”
After Ai Sli was pulled up by me, she took out a medicine bottle from her arms and said, "Sister Xiaoxiao, I just want to help her stop the bleeding!" I won't hurt her anymore! ”
"Really?" I frowned, feeling so weird.
She looked at the bleeding girl on the ground and nodded at me.
I've been with Asley for a long time, and I thought I should trust her, so I let go.
She crouched down beside the girl, then poured out the ointment from the vial and applied it to her wound, which soon looked like a new layer of skin and showed no signs of being bitten.
Ashley put the medicine bottle in her pocket, then took out a tissue and carefully wiped the blood from her body, and finally helped her comb her somewhat messy hair.
When she stood up, I could clearly see the tears in her eyes, but she didn't seem to let it flow.
"Ashley?" Actually, I had a lot of questions I wanted to ask her, but I couldn't ask anything after seeing the tears in her eyes.
With a smile on her face, she took my arm and said, "Sister Xiaoxiao, let's go!" Didn't you say that you were running out of ingredients at home? Let's go shopping at the supermarket! With that, he pulled me out of there.
Although I was a little worried about the girl lying on the ground who hadn't woken up yet, I felt that her life was not in danger, so I didn't ask anything, and was silently pulled away by her.
Along the way, there was silence. I looked at the somewhat decadent back walking in front, and I couldn't help it, so I stepped forward and pulled her to sit on the wooden bench next to her.
"Ashley, maybe I shouldn't have asked that, but I really want you to tell me, do you know her?"
She looked at me and nodded: "Well, we grew up together, can we be called childhood sweethearts in your Chinese words?" She smiled.
"Childhood sweethearts don't seem to work, a man and a girl can only be described as this when they grew up together. Well...... It can be described as a friend of the total horn! But why would you do this to her when you grew up together? What's going on? ”
She restrained her smile, then lowered her head: "She betrayed our friendship. I think friendship is the same as love, and it also requires loyalty. Since she has never had this loyalty to our friendship, then I also have the right to get back a little bit of what I have paid for, which is the price she needs to pay. What's more, I have become the way I am now, and she also has her credit. ”
She didn't say any more, and I knew she didn't want to talk about it or remember the painful past. In fact, I can imagine how serious this betrayal is without saying it, otherwise Eisley's character would not have done this to her.
I turned around and hugged her and patted her on the back: "It's all gone, haven't you started a new life now?" So forget about the past! So that you can live better! ”
"Well, now that I've taken back what I deserved, I've let go of everything before, and from today onwards, I'll really live my life again as Ashley."
I let her go, then looked at her with a smile and said, "Congratulations, Aisley!" You will be very happy in the future, and I am sure that we will become very good friends too. ”
"Hmm!" Ai Sli finally showed a sincere smile: "Sister Xiaoxiao, can I ask you a few questions?" ”
"Yes, what do you want to ask?"
"Actually, I've always been curious about your identity, who are you?"
"This ...... It seems that it is not clear in a short period of time, but it can probably be said that I am a very special person for the Jiuli Realm, and for all the human beings on the Eastern Continent, I am also a special person. ”
"Is that why the patriarch told me to protect you? Sister Xiaoxiao, is the patriarch afraid of you? ”
"Sort of! Actually, your patriarch is very good, why are you so scared every time you see him? ”
"Because seeing that he has a lot of blood pressure, I can't help but be afraid. In fact, in our clan, the hierarchy is very clear, and there are many clan rules. A low-level figure like me is not qualified to meet the patriarch, and even if he does, he will not be able to think and speak normally due to coercion. But it's really a blessing that Sister Xiaoxiao is dragging me down, so I can see the patriarch so often. ”
"I think it's a fate with you! That's why I want to keep you around. However, Aisley, although objectively I don't agree with this, I still want to say that there are some things that you still don't want to know, because maybe your ability is not enough, and even if you do, it will only be harmful and not beneficial, so it is also for your good. If the people at the top want you to know, they will naturally know when your ability is enough. "Although it feels like it hurts her to say this, I still want to remind her for her safety. Since I came out of Yuanshan Village, I haven't made many friends, Li Yang is no longer there, I just hope that the others can live happily.
Ashley smiled and said, "I know, in fact, the management has been reminding me of this since the transformation. I just crossed the line a bit. ”
"Actually, it's nothing, I just want you to be careful in the future. As for some things, I can't tell you yet to protect you, but I believe that with your ability, if you work hard, you will soon know what you want to know. I smiled and said!
"Sister Xiaoxiao, you're from China! Can you tell me about China? I've always wanted to see this ancient country, but I've never had the chance. ”
"Absolutely! There are many interesting places in China, especially the ancient ruins in some ancient cities, which are unique cultural heritages and have a strong atmosphere of ancient culture. But my favorite place to visit is West Lake. ”
"West Lake?"
"Well, English seems to be thewestlake."
“oh! TheWestlake, I know. ”
"When my master was alive, if he went out of the village to visit for medical treatment, he would often take me to the West Lake, where there were many memories of me and my master."
"Does Master mean Teacher? Sister Xiaoxiao, you still have a master! ”
"Yes, I didn't have parents since I was a child, my master raised me, he is like my father, and of course my brother, although it's a little strange to say this, but my brother is like a mother in my heart." I really miss them at a time like this. Being alone in a foreign country, surrounded by people of different races and speaking different languages, the feeling of homesickness is really getting heavier!
"In fact, when it comes to West Lake, there is a myth and legend that Chinese know, which is a poignant love story!"
"I know, I think I've seen it before, isn't it a broken bridge?"
"Uh...... Sort of! Looks like you know China quite well! ”
She smiled and said, "I really want to go and see it!" ”
"When I return to China next time, I'll take you back with me, and then I'll take you to visit the West Lake, and on a snowy day, let's go to see the broken bridge and the remnants of snow together!"
"Broken bridge and remnant snow! Sounds so beautiful! Then we have made up our minds, next time you must take me to see the remnants of the snow on the broken bridge! ”
"Got it......"
