Chapter 0365: Family
I leaned against the head of the bed, Artemis sat next to me, my injured right hand resting on her lap, her fingers as white as ice and snow gently kneading on several large holes in my arm, and the cold touch came from my fingertips that made me feel comfortable.
"Why are your hands so cold?" I asked her softly, her hands not only cold but also trembling slightly.
"I've always been like this!" She didn't look up, and said lightly.
"I know why, it's because no one warms you up." As I spoke, I naturally held her cold hand in the palm of my hand, and I felt her body stiffen significantly, and then said coldly: "Let go, your hand doesn't hurt anymore, right?" ”
I changed the way I had a hippie smile and pulled her to my side with a slight force, perhaps for fear of hurting my hand again, she didn't struggle but leaned side by side with me at the head of the bed as I wanted, and then pulled my hand and continued to knead the swollen muscles.
"Didn't you go to China? How did you suddenly run to Las Vegas. I pinched a wisp of silky silver and played with it around my fingers, but she acquiesced to my death-seeking behavior without saying a word.
"Chen Xi accompanies my mother, I have my own things to do." She turned her head to look at me, looking a little helpless, now the snow wolf clan is all over Europe, and all the families worship her as the king, even if they want to quit, they can't do it.
"That's the price of being a goddess, and you're not destined to be able to do what you want like a normal woman, unless you ......" I chuckled and didn't continue.
"Unless what?" She asked.
"Unless there's a man as good as me to help you." I chuckled and put on a top hat for myself, and I can't compare with her when it comes to excellence, she is the kind of existence that defends the sky, and I only talk to others at most.
"I don't need help, I want to be free, no one dares to stop me." She is always so domineering when she speaks, and her flat tone has the air of a king who reigns over the world.
"I know you don't need help, but you need to take care of it, or your hands will stay cold." I said lightly, every time I saw her cold posture and felt the soul surrounded by loneliness, I couldn't help but feel distressed, not that I was compassionate, but I felt irrepressible, and I couldn't control my desire to protect her, but in reality, she had been protecting me.
"Who is qualified to take care of me, can you? You can't even take care of my sister. "Artemis still seems to be complaining about me for Chen Xi's affairs.
"She's a little girl in my eyes, I only treat her as a sister, you know it very well in your heart, why do you want to mention it again." I sighed softly, I was helpless about this.
"The only wish I can't help her fulfill is you." Artemis looked up at me, his tone flat, not knowing whether to be disappointed or happy.
"There are some things that you can't force on." She should know what I'm thinking when I say that.
"Am I being selfish?" She suddenly asked for no reason, I was stunned for a moment, but I quickly understood what she meant, whether she admitted it or not, she didn't want me to be with Chen Xi, as for why, she didn't say it, I didn't dare to think about it.
"I'm sorry!" Seeing that I didn't speak for a long time, I thought I blamed her for this, and even apologized to me for the first time.
"I'm sorry, it's over, you have to compensate me for my losses." I didn't know what I had to lose, but the atmosphere was a bit heavy, so I teased her with this excuse.
"What do you want?" She looked at me with a serious face.
"I want you." I didn't even think about blurting it out, I regretted saying it, joking with Artemis to be ready to be taken seriously by her at any time.
She looked at my eyes quietly, did not explode or brushed her sleeves away, but the strength of her hands gradually increased, I gritted my teeth and did not say a word to compete with her, I couldn't lose face in front of a woman, but she was more ruthless than I thought, and finally the whole arm trembled, I really couldn't stand it and could only give in and say: "Okay, okay, I was wrong, and if I pinch my arm again, it will be useless." ”
She sighed softly, her green jade-like fingers rubbed lightly on the marks she had pinched just now, obviously distressed, but she still looked like nothing happened.
"It's all to blame on that bastard, who had to gamble with me for making my arm like this!" Seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, I quickly changed the subject.
"It's you who have to be strong, and no one forces you." Artemis said with a slight reproach.
"I didn't expect that, who the hell is that guy? Even you have to be afraid. "I've always been very curious about the background of that wealthy family, and I can't find a few rich second generations in the world who are hundreds of millions of dollars.
"Ever heard of the Rothschilds?" She said lightly.
"Of course, the world's financial giants control the economic lifelines of several countries, and those with a lot of money can be used as firewood, and I heard that he can bankrupt several countries with a wave of his hand, I don't know if it's true." I'm reminded of some rumors I've heard.
"The rumors are a bit exaggerated, even if you have that strength, you don't have that guts, but the Rothschilds are indeed a world-class financial empire, and the person who gambled with you today is called Gucas, the heir of the Rothschild family, so 100 million dollars is nothing to him." Artemis said lightly, even in the face of such a legendary family, she was still calm and unfazed.
I don't have such a good determination, this is a legendary family, never appeared in the public eye, a large part of the people think it is just made up, its rise is a business myth is talked about, but few people have seen the true face of this family.
I didn't expect to meet the heir of the Rothschild family today, and almost killed him, so it is not difficult to explain why there are so many white-clothed masters around him who can almost be compared to the religious ruling, presumably the Rothschild family guards.
Knowing his identity, I can't help but be afraid for a while, if the wolf really slaughters him with a knife, I am afraid that the entire Caesar will be implicated, and there may be countless killers chasing us endlessly, because this family is too rich for us to compare.
The most important thing is that no one knows where their headquarters is, and we can't find a place even if we want to retaliate, but fortunately, Artemis stopped me from doing something stupid at the critical moment, and it doesn't matter if I die or not, it will be a great sin to implicate Caesar.
"You don't have to worry, there is more than one heir to the Rothschild family, even if he dies, it will not affect the family, if you are worried about his revenge, I will kill him for you." Artemis saw my worries and said with a blank face that even the heirs of the Rothschilds were as small as ants in her eyes.
"Forget it, I don't want to cause trouble for you, I just didn't expect that the uneducated Second Ancestor would be the heir of the Rothschild family, and if this big family that has lasted for a century falls into the hands of such people, I'm afraid it will not be far from extinction." I pouted and shook my head, I really couldn't figure out how such a powerful family could cultivate such an unruly heir, and Rothschild's face was lost by him.
