Chapter 246: Conflict

Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Winter nights soon get dark after sunset, the bustle and noise of the streets and alleys gradually fall into silence, the dim street lamps are lit, and the hurried footsteps of pedestrians seem to be avoiding the cold wind, and they seem to be busy returning to their own warm home.

The falling snowflakes were getting bigger and bigger, the eaves of the roof were covered in silver, and looking out the window at the quiet night, Pandelia saw a vague figure coming slowly from a distance, and turned around, because she didn't want to see the other person, as if the other party exuded a disgusting smell that made people want to stay away.

Lying on the soft and warm bed, Pandelia closed her eyes tiredly, she did not feel the slightest sleepiness, just simply seemed to be running away from something, curled up, as if she was the only one left in the whole world.

For a long time, for a long time.

There was a soft knock on the door.

"Miss, the master has ordered you to come and have dinner."

Outside the door sounded the maid's respectful and polite voice.

Pandelia subconsciously wanted to say no, but she suddenly remembered something, and the resistance in her heart collapsed in an instant, and she got up from the bed, and she decided to accept his invitation.

Because Xia Lan rarely pays attention to Pandelia in normal times, and doesn't even care about her diet and rest at all, this time the other party's notification for no reason made her feel a bad premonition in her heart, probably something important happened.

When she came to the restaurant, Xia Lan and Winnie appeared on the side of the table for a long time, and after walking to the chair farthest from Xia Lan and sitting down with an expressionless face, her eyes were blind to the dazzling and sumptuous food on the table, and there was only one person printed in her blue eyes.

Xia Lan waved her hand and repelled the maids who were serving around her. The knife and fork in his hand was like a signal. Dinner began.

The atmosphere of the dinner was silent and eerie. No one spoke, only the sound of knives and forks crashing against silver plates and chewing food.

Pandelia casually ate a bite of the golden and crispy fried fish, chewing it as if it were chewing wax, but in contrast to Winnie's hungry appearance, her delicate little face was full of oil, and the indulgence completely ruined her lovely image.

Unlike Pandelia, who was preoccupied, she had been consuming a lot of mental research every day since Charan recommended her to Count Heather's alchemy workshop. Earl Heather's alchemy workshop is undoubtedly much better than Viscount Farrant's, where Winnie can gain more valuable knowledge and practice, she doesn't know when she will leave in a hurry like last time, so every day she is trying her best to squeeze her energy, and the consequence is that every time she finishes a day's research, her body will be abnormally hungry, and the diet is just a simple supplement for her body, if it weren't for Xia Lan's notice, Maybe she's still fighting in the alchemy workshop.

When a person has their own pursuits and dreams, they will exude infinite energy. Just like Winnie, after being fully committed to something, no foreign object can affect or interfere with them.

Winnie was the first to finish dinner. After drinking a glass of honey water, he gently stroked his bulging belly, and his delicate face was full of contentment.

After quietly glancing at the silent Xia Lan and Pan Delia, Winnie sighed in her heart, she could understand Pan Delia's feelings of betrayal, but with Xia Lan's character, he would definitely not do this for no reason, and the difference in concepts and ideas caused the two of them to freeze.

If Xia Lan was willing to explain his actions, he might be able to untie the knot in Pandelia's heart, but unfortunately, this is just a beautiful fantasy, and a little familiarity with Xia Lan's personality will know that this is impossible.

After putting down the knife and fork and wiping the food stains on her mouth with a napkin, Xia Lan spoke.

"In three days I will follow the Earl of Heather to Cantland."

"What about us?"

Winnie immediately asked with concern.

Also concerned was Pandelia, who had already finished her dinner hastily and focused on the other party.

"You will remain in Abramro as hostages for the time being." Xia Lan replied calmly.

Winnie seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, it seemed that she finally didn't have to wander again, there were still many unfinished realities in the alchemy workshop waiting for her to continue her research.

"I can go to the Atelier as usual, right?!"

"Yes, Earl Heather will not restrict your freedom in Ebranro." Charland Road.

"That is, we are only free in Eblaunro?!" Pandelia suddenly said coldly.

"Yes." Xia Lan glanced at Pandelia and said.

"It doesn't matter, as long as I can continue to stay in the alchemy workshop, I'll be satisfied." Winnie interjected at the right time. "However, there is no problem with our safety, right?!"

"Don't worry, Earl Heather will not harm you, and he will even take your lives and safety very seriously!" Charland Road.

"Because he doesn't want to offend you, especially when the first snow comes." Pandelia seemed to have guessed something and snorted coldly.

"First snow?! yes, it looks like it's snowing today, but what does that have to do with snow?! Winnie was confused.

"Because Viscount Frank will take advantage of the situation to wage war against Count Heather when the first snow falls." Pandelia directly revealed the secret passage.

"What?! Why haven't I heard about it? Winnie couldn't help but be surprised.

"It's not something you care about." Xia Lan glanced at Winnie coldly and said, "When the time comes, I will give you a list, and all you need to do is complete the work on the list." ”

"Do you want me to make a research potion for you?" Winnie frowned slightly.

"Don't forget jĂŹ, this is the only place where you have zĂ i value to me." Charland Road.

"So you can use everyone as your target?!" Pandelia sneered.

"That's her will." Xia Lan said expressionlessly.

"But have you ever asked me about my wishes?!"

Pandelia could no longer bear the resentment in her heart, and reached out to slap it on the dining table and got up angrily.

"Don't make any noise!" Winnie covered her ears and shouted, "Calm down, okay!" ”

"I've always been calm."

Xia Lan looked at Pandelia, who looked like a fried cat.

"I just need an explanation." Pandelia glared angrily.

"What explanation do you need?" Xia Lan asked.

"Betray my explanation!" Pandelia said.

"Because I need more strength to keep you safe." Xia Lan was silent.

"Powerful? It's just your excuse, right? Pandelia scoffed.

"If you encounter an enemy as powerful as Baicize again, you won't have the good luck to escape last time, because I can't stop it." Charland Road. "To be precise, my strength is no longer able to protect and take care of your safety."

"That's why you need to be stronger? So you can safely sell me to Earl Heather as a bargaining chip. Pandelia said coldly.

"Yes." Xia Lan did not deny it.

"Please forgive me for saying goodbye first."

Pandelia breathed heavily, and for a moment, she pulled out her chair and headed out the door.

After her figure disappeared into the dining room, the atmosphere fell silent again for a while, Xia Lan took out a piece of paper from the void ring and flicked it in front of Winnie and said, "I need to see the finished product on the list the day after tomorrow." ”

After saying that, Xia Lan also left.

Leaving Winnie alone in the empty and deserted dining room, she picked up the paper in front of the table and looked closely, only to find that many of the potions on the list were for body conditioning and calming the mind.

What's going on? Is there something wrong with his body? After all, a high-ranking powerhouse's body basically does not need the assistance of this kind of medicine, and as a pharmacist's professional habits, Winnie's heart immediately overflowed with a strong curiosity. (To be continued)
