Chapter 54: It's the Night Man's Visit
When she came into the room, she didn't sit down in a hurry, but slowed down and looked around at the furnishings.
"Miss Badel, please be seated," I greeted with a smile, "what would you like to drink, coffee or juice?" ”
"Don't bother......" She looked around and suddenly landed on the door to Nik's bedroom on the second floor, which had just opened.
Afraid of hearing the noise, Nik leaned out in surprise and leaned down on the edge of the railing to look down.
"Nik," I introduced, "this is Miss Badel." ”
"Hello Miss Beddle." Nik greeted politely.
"Hello." A slightly deeper smile appeared on her indifferent face, "Your name is Nik?" ”
"Hmm." Nik replied in a childlike voice.
"Nik, is the homework done?" I asked him.
"It's done."
"Then go to sleep, I have to go to school early tomorrow morning."
Nik nodded, "Goodbye, Miss Badel." ”
"Good night, Nik." It was still a gentle smile, but I read a strange taste from that look, very shallow, but not to be ignored.
"Please be seated." I beckoned her to sit down.
"I'm sorry to come in the middle of the night," she smiled, smiling gracefully but distantly, "but I think there are some things that it is better not to make noise during the day." ”
"Oh? Miss Badel's words seem to mean something else, right? I didn't want to go around in circles with her, "I beg your pardon, I don't quite understand." ”
"Okay, I'll be clear." She smiled lightly, but the smile was absolutely unkind, "My mother has been dead for many years, and I don't object to my father falling in love or even remarrying, after all, everyone's heart longs for someone to spend their old age with, isn't it?" ”
"Indeed." I nodded, motioning for her to continue.
"However, love, I also hope to be based on the foundation." Her eyes darkened, and her tone was more stern, "Miss Furkmings resolutely fled the family because she didn't want to marry someone she didn't love, and she didn't want to be a bargaining chip for a commercial marriage, I admire it, after all, love is the most praiseworthy selfish desire in the human soul, so I have always felt that Miss Furmings is a person who dares to love and hate, and will not hide it, at least, she will not disdain to fall into that kind of love that cannot see the light." ”
The mention of the past made my heart tense for a while, but when it came to this, I also understood the intention of this Miss Beder, and I vaguely felt that she was not a good person, and now it seems that it is clear that the teacher is asking for guilt.
I laughed and shook my head helplessly.
"Isn't it?" She was puzzled, and even a little impatient, "Even if you don't care, there is still a child here, are you willing to let him not see the light for the rest of his life?" ”
It seems that there is a deep misunderstanding, no wonder she looked at Nik with the same eyes just now. I smiled, but I didn't care, "Did Miss Bader suspect that I had an affair with your father, and that he had kept me here and had a child?" ”
Her eyes were a little cold, "I didn't want to say it so bluntly, but he rescued you and settled here, and for more than a year, he tried every means to hide your traces from others to find them, shouldn't his purpose in doing so arouse suspicion?" ”
"If you are so suspicious, why don't you question your father?" I looked at her without any subtlety, "It seems that your relationship with your father is not so good, no offense, Miss Bader." ”
Apparently, she was caught off guard by my bluntness, and her pupils flickered and she turned her gaze to the side.
"Or do you think it's easier to start with me?" I leaned back on the couch and looked at her for a long time, "After all, your father is a persistent man, as can be seen from his attitude towards his daughter's marriage. ”
"How do you know?" She was visibly surprised, and glared at me suspiciously.
"Because," I smiled softly, "that's exactly why he saved me." ”
Now, I don't have to hide it anymore, I don't have to hide it, I don't want to make the misunderstanding even deeper, and the two sides will not be at peace, "When your father rescued me, his original intention was to keep me away from Zosi, and Miss Beder may not know that I am not actually related to Zossy. ”
She was confused, but nodded, "I've heard of it, but I'm not sure. ”
"It's a fact." I said seriously: "Mr. Bader wants to facilitate your marriage with Zosy and the marriage of the two families, so he can only separate me from Zosi's side first. For more than a year, he has hidden my traces, mainly because he does not want Zosi to catch me and arrest me back. I smiled and softened my tone, "But I have to say that Mr. Beder is a very nice man, and sometimes comes to visit us, but he is by no means the so-called Kanaya Zangjiao. ”
"So......" she thought, as if she understood something, and said with a little surprise, "Zoshi likes you?" Your half-brother, like you? ”
"This ......," I smiled faintly, "I beg your pardon, I can't tell myself." ”
Time has passed, the past is gone, and now that I pick up this entanglement, it is difficult to be calm in my heart. However, I am not lying, in fact, I really don't know whether his extreme imprisonment at that time was due to love from the heart, or because of his own strong possessiveness, which could not tolerate the slightest betrayal from others.
Seeing that I was a little embarrassed, she stopped asking, "I trust your explanation." I'm sorry for the offense, Miss Furcmens. She got up, her lips lining in an elegant arc, "Excuse me." ”
"It's okay, it's my fault for causing your misunderstanding." I smiled and got up to see her off.
Walking to the door, she stopped me, "Please go back." ”
Standing on the steps, I looked at her back, hesitated, but still spoke, "Miss Badel, I have a word that I hope you will not be surprised to say. ”
She turned around and looked at me quizzically.
I pondered for a moment and said slowly, "Presumably, you don't like Zosi, do you?" You can tell from the way you treat him at the prom that you don't want to be held hostage to a marriage for commercial purposes, do you? ”
She silently lowered her eyebrows, speechless.
"It is true, as Miss Bader said, that love is the most praiseworthy lust of the human soul," I said, gazing at her, "if you do not love, do not compromise, lest you regret it one day." ”
I don't know why I'm telling her this, it's someone else's business, it's none of my business. Xu is because I see the straightforwardness under her indifferent appearance, and Xu I don't want to see another girl bound by a business marriage to the same fate as me.
-- Love, how unforgiving.
She was silent for a moment, then looked up at me and smiled, "Ruori Furcumens, I think I'm starting to appreciate you." ”
She turned and walked towards the royal blue sports car parked in the night, and I hooked the corners of my mouth, and my eyes paused as I was about to turn around.
Looking at it, there was a person sitting in the co-pilot of the car, vaguely like a lady.
The car started slowly, and I withdrew my gaze and turned to walk into the house.
