Chapter 52: Don't You Want Hill Anymore?
"Mr. Chu Yun, you're finally here." Seeing Chu Yun appear, the old housekeeper hurriedly said goodbye to the other guests and greeted him.
"Hehe, tonight is really lively, a little different from what I thought." Chu Yun said with a smile, actually a little dissatisfied in his heart.
However, the old butler's next words startled Chu Yun and Sister Xilu.
"Lord Viscount has said that since he wants to recognize Miss Hill as his goddaughter, he must make a big point, so that the whole city of Seca will know. That way, no one would dare to bully Miss Hill in the future. ”
"Wait, isn't this a celebration of Miss Avril's recovery?" Chu Yun couldn't help asking.
The butler shook his head: "Miss Avril doesn't like this kind of occasion the most, even if the master wants to do it, she will refuse, but considering that it is for Miss Hill, Miss Avril will also attend the banquet at that time." ”
The butler's words made Chu Yun feel good about Viscount Raymond, it seemed that he had misunderstood the other party, but he didn't expect the Viscount to attach so much importance to this matter.
In fact, the viscount did not pay attention to Avril's illness, and he had sought countless doctors, magicians, alchemists, and priests for Avril's illness, but the result was the same, and no one could save her.
As a result, Chu Yun actually understated it so lightly, and cured his daughter!
He naturally didn't dare to worry about Chu Yun's request, after all, according to Chu Yun, his daughter would have to be observed and treated for a while before she would completely return to normal.
Even if it wasn't for this reason, he wanted to thank Chu Yun well, so he held this banquet to settle things as soon as possible.
Xilu on the side understood Chu Yun's thoughts, and the environment was indeed better than that of the welfare home.
"Teacher, is this true?"
Chu Yun nodded: "Miss Avril is also a magician, and Hill can get a better education if she lives here." ”
Shilu is a half-magician, and a lot of her magic is found by herself without systematic education, and allowing Ciel to get a better education has always been one of the reasons why she is desperate to make money.
It's just that when Hill heard these words, he cried sadly: "Sister, don't you want Hill anymore?" ”
"Hill won't trouble you, Hill is obedient and won't bother you with alchemy."
Listening to Hill's sad words, Xilu even wanted to leave Chu Yun to stay and live with her sister. But she knew that not only would she miss out on changing her life, but she also knew she wouldn't be able to teach Hill well.
"Don't leave Hill behind, don't eat candy Hill, give it to my sister, don't leave Hill~Woo woo~"
Hill's cry made the surrounding guests look curiously at this side, and Shilu hurriedly said to Hill, "No, Hill, you are still a good sister to my sister." Now it's just changed from Uncle Loa's house to here, and nothing else will change. ”
"Hill knows...... My sister is going to leave with Brother Chu Yun...... You don't want Hill anymore. Hill cried profusely as he ran down the dark path.
"Ciel!"
Seeing this, Xilu hurriedly chased after her, but instead of forcibly bringing her back, she trotted all the way and disappeared in front of everyone.
"Mr. Chu Yun, this seems to be a bit difficult to do...... "The housekeeper looked at Chu Yun with some embarrassment.
Today's protagonist is Hill, and if Hill doesn't show up, this banquet won't be able to go on.
And judging by Hill's performance, it doesn't seem like he wants to be here.
"Let's change this banquet to a banquet to celebrate Avril's recovery." Chu Yun had a headache.
He could feel the loneliness and despair in Hill's heart.
Hill was almost sold by a loved one she had always trusted so much today, and now she suddenly said that she would "give" her to someone else as a daughter, and her young and fragile heart collapsed instantly.
This is also the reason why Chu Yun didn't rush to tell Hill about this, he wanted to see how Hill and Avril got along first, and then hand it over to Avril after gradually cultivating their feelings in the past few days, so that he wouldn't be so resistant.
It's a pity that Viscount Raymond did a bad thing with good intentions, and now it is a little difficult to end.
Chu Yun chased after Xilu in the direction he left, leaving the anxious butler.
The old butler hurriedly told Viscount Raymond about the situation here, and Viscount Raymond was also a little stunned.
"What the hell is going on?"
The old butler guessed, "It may be that Mr. Chu Yun hasn't told Miss Hill about this yet...... I accidentally told the party about it just now. ”
"It's all my fault, I shouldn't be in such a hurry, and I didn't ask Chu Yun. Inform Avril and let her change into a dress and appear as the protagonist of the evening. ”
"Okay sir......"
The banquet was prepared in a hurry, and Raymond didn't know the details of Hill, so he didn't tell the specific situation when he was invited, and planned to announce it on the spot tonight.
Now in this situation, it is barely reasonable to change to a recovery dinner.
On the other side, Shilu and Ciel came to the inner lake of Seka City at this time.
The two sat by the lake and watched the moon rise in the sky in a daze, and the sound of insects in their ears made them feel as if they had returned to the time when they lived in the countryside when they were children.
At that time, their parents were still around, and they could play by the lake and run in the fields without worry.
Chu Yun had already caught up with them, but he didn't bother the two, just quietly blowing the evening breeze on the trees.
It's a bit noisy today, and Shiro helps Hill fix his hair that has been blown away by the wind.
"Ciel, don't worry, my sister won't leave you."
Hill turned his head, his eyes red and swollen with tears on his face.
"Really?"
Shiro took a deep breath and nodded.
"Of course, there's nothing more important than Hill." Xilu patted Hill's little head, just like Chu Yun usually patted her.
"I'll make it clear to the teacher later, I'm not leaving, I'm going to stay in Sekka City and live with my sister, and I'll never leave Hill again!" Shiro said, squeezing Ciel's hand.
"Really......
"Don't worry, the teacher is very good and won't blame me. And I'm so stupid, the teacher may have disliked me a long time ago and didn't want to teach me. "Shiro actually knows that her level is terrible.
A teacher like Chu Yun who is willing to patiently teach her stupid apprentice will probably never meet her again in this life.
"Sister, I mean...... Is it really okay to just give up on your dreams? ”
Shilu couldn't help but be silent when she heard this, and Ciel continued: "Actually, I know, I know that my sister has done a lot for me. ”
"Risking my life, all the money I earned was sent back. Even if the clothes are torn, they just mend them and continue to wear them, but my sister always buys me new clothes......"
"If it weren't for me, my sister could have lived a better life, she could have saved money to learn more new magic, she could buy herself new clothes and live the life she wanted."
"Now it's hard to meet a good teacher like Brother Chu Yun, if I give up, my sister will hate me for the rest of my life."
"I know you're doing it for my good, but, but I just can't bear my sister, and I don't want to be separated from you so soon. Woo woo woo~"
