Chapter 2 Seeing the Dead
Finally putting on the beautiful - which could also be read as a "life-threatening" dress - Roy made his way through the corridors to the door of the flower hall. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Today, in her previous life, her father would sign her engagement agreement with Vincent. Next, the various formalities of marriage will be carried out one after another, and it will be difficult to regret it.
Of course, there was a gap of almost a month between the engagement and the official marriage. It is difficult, but not impossible, to break a formally signed marriage contract. She had time to figure it out.
But the thought of being tied to Vincent with an engagement letter made Roy feel disgusted. Wait a minute longer, and she thinks she's going crazy.
And after the agreement is signed, it will be much more difficult to solve this matter. In case, she was saying, if she didn't succeed in getting rid of Vincent, then on the day of the wedding, she and her father would be imprisoned one after another, and there would be no room for counterattack. Everything is exactly the same as in the previous life.
So what's the point of her living again?
But......
Roy snorted in annoyance. Even if you don't count the years when she lived alone after her father's death in her previous life, she and her father haven't seen each other for nearly half a year.
Her father loved her, and Roy knew it well. But how close is the father and daughter? Belch...... The last time she saw her father, what did she tell him? It seems that there is only one word of fatherly goodness and a word of goodbye?
The valet walked around Roy's side, glared at Roy, and squeezed a warning from between her teeth, "Don't talk nonsense. Otherwise, be careful that I will peel you off. ”
Roy pursed his lips. This is the servant hired by the father.
In addition to servants, my father also hired many governesses in order to grow her into a real lady among the servants. These people eat her house and drink her house, and when they punish her, they will not be soft at all. Of course, Roy believes that her father was in no way meant to torture her. He certainly didn't expect that he would spend a lot of money to raise a batch of white-eyed wolves. Maybe in his opinion, if Roy wants to become a talent, he and Roy will have to pay the price, and it will be good to wait for Roy to grow up.
In her father's heart, she was just a child.
Federal law does not recognize the independent personality of minors. How many girls don't even know what their future husbands look like, so they are used by their parents in exchange for benefits. Father wouldn't sell her, but if he was determined to recognize Vincent, Roy would have no room to resist.
But how could she convince someone she didn't know well to give up the son-in-law he had always loved, even if he was his own daughter?
Roy had a headache just thinking about it.
I have to have a dry headache. To get rid of Vincent, she must first get rid of her father.
Roy let out a sigh of relief, straightened his back, and waited for the maid to push the door open and slowly walked in.
The afternoon sun shines through the windows. Roy felt a little dazzling, so he lowered his eyes respectfully, and only slowly raised his eyes when he got used to them.
The warm sunlight gilded a golden halo on the few people at the small round table by the window. Among them was a majestic figure, with strong limbs and a straight back like a mountain. The angular face is not real because of the backlight, but it is not difficult to identify the rough and rigid facial features. Because of the lack of maintenance, the skin is rough. The combination of the short hair that is not soft and the rough face is reminiscent of the rock that has been eroded by wind and frost, but still stands, and has a kind of majesty that is not angry and arrogant.
He was still saying something when he first opened the door. Roy didn't hear what it was, but it was certainly not something that made people feel happy. Roy came in, he was still gasping for breath, he didn't say a word to Roy, he didn't beckon Roy to come to him, and he didn't even look at Roy.
Roy didn't know what to say, pursed his lips, and stood silently in the center of the flower hall.
Suddenly, as if he had just realized that Roy was here, his father turned to look at Roy.
was originally shrouded in a layer of depression, but in an instant, he smiled into a flower.
“……”
Roy didn't say a word.
Before she knew it, she was in tears.
"Uh-huh!"
Someone next to him cleared his throat unpleasantly. Both Roy and his father came to their senses.
Vincent? Cook's mother, her former mother-in-law, lifted her fat hands and admired the elaborate groomed nails. "It's too big."
The father's happy face seemed to be suddenly stuffed into the quick-frozen sleep pod, which was very embarrassing.
Vincent's mother saw it, snorted coldly, glanced at Roy, and then continued to say to his father: "Luo Xiu, I didn't say you. Even if Roy is a girl, you should pay more attention to her education. Roy's mother is the daughter of the Yang family and one of the founders of the Federation, Cynthia? Yang's descendants, although they were later removed from the family, still have the most noble blood in their bodies. If others saw Roy's etiquette rotten like this, I wonder if she would forgive her generously because she was not a pure nobleman, or laugh at her mother for being willing to degenerate, find a mud leg, and give birth to a wild monkey? ”
With that, she covered her mouth with a fan and giggled like a hen.
Roy clenched his fists.
She had said this in her previous life. And as in memory, the father did not refute.
She was cowardly at the time. When I met my future husband, I was already very nervous, and I was severely beaten by my future mother-in-law, so I couldn't raise my head, so I didn't notice what my father's expression was. She only remembered that her father did not speak up, and thought that he also agreed with Vincent's mother's statement.
That's a blood dripping from my heart.
"Mother."
It was a warm voice, very magnetic, clearly vocally trained. Even just two syllables can make people drown in that tenderness.
Vincent's slender body was obscured by his mother. He leaned out, nodded apologetically to his father, and gave Roy a warm smile.
It's exactly the same as in previous lives. Roy remembers how touched he was at the time. The feeling of being alone, with only one person being kind to you and protecting you, is particularly moving.
Roy jerked his head away.
There was a candlestick on the table.
If you copied it up and smashed it down on Vincent's beautiful head that hadn't been hollowed out by wine for the time being, would it make him hurt more than his father before he died quickly, and worse than if she fell into a black hole and was pulled into noodles?
The rumbling in his ears was the noise of blood backflowing, and I don't know how long it had been, but Roy had taken hundreds of deep breaths before it finally slowly receded.
No. No.
It was too cheap for him to take his life directly.
She tried to look at Vincent again, her nails digging into her palms, and finally resisting the impulse. Then she listened intently to the conversation between her father and Vincent's mother, a little worried about what she had just missed.
After all, she had just been reborn, and she was still a little uncomfortable. Don't mess things up.
But she soon relented. First of all, she didn't have a long time to be angry, and secondly, because at the same time, she was not the only one who was angry.
"I apologize to you on behalf of my mother. She didn't mean to. Vincent said to his father sincerely.
This time, Roy held her head up, so she realized that her father almost jumped up and pressed Vincent's mother to the ground and beat him fatly.
It's a pity that Vincent's father is an earl, and even his family belongs to the high nobles, and Roy's father is just a small baron among the low nobles. The punishment of the lower nobles inflicting physical harm on the higher nobles is similar to that of the commoners, and the guardian of the minor, as the father, will be punished more severely than her. Otherwise, Roy would have copied the candlestick, and he didn't have to worry about his father's hands at all, and he didn't have to worry about any bullshit marriage.
In view of the ineffectiveness of the apology, Vincent hastened to add: "Roy's mother is also my distant aunt." When my father was alive, he always praised her for her elegance and dignity, and she was a model of a celebrity. ”
My father's face softened slightly.
Roy curled the corners of his lips. She and her mother are the reverse scales of their father. If their mother and son don't come out and apologize personally, their father will really beat them up and admit to being punished.
Vincent said it nicely, but his father was not the kind of person who could be dismissed with a word of flattery. The eyes of those present, including Roy, were focused on Vincent's mother, and an awkward silence descended on the audience.
Among them, Roy was in the best mood. I hope Vincent's mother doesn't apologize and insists for a little longer. When her father's little patience was completely gone, her business was done.
"What are you kicking me for!"
Vincent's mother suddenly screamed, snapped her fan shut, and poked her son's head in hatred: "Silly boy, what are you worried about? Don't forget that he was the one who begged! Luo Xiu, let me tell you, it was you who came to my family with tears and begged Vincent to accept your daughter's hot potato. At that time, I was afraid that we would not agree, and before we could open our mouths, we promised a lot of dowry, and you forgot all this? Why, you don't want to say two words to you? Stare at me again! ”
