Chapter 248: Seeing Through + Promised
- And then it was because you chose to trust me that you woke up, did what I said, and gained power.
- And based on these two choices made by yourself, that's why you have the life you have now.
I deliberately and repeatedly emphasized the two key words of 'yourself, choice', and maintained my sincere and serious expression and tone.
"So, I haven't given you anything, it's all because of your own choices, and the harvest is your own hard work. So don't please don't misunderstand, and don't keep saying that you want to be a slave or something because of these misunderstandings."
I finished carefully and carefully, thinking that I could immediately enter the next stage, but I never expected that the girl in front of me was not fooled by me.
Gennai frowned, showed a bitter smile, and said, "Haha, master, you are only comforting me when you say this. Because what you said, didn't you give it to me? It was you who accepted the incompetent me, and it was you who brought me to the adventurer's guild to awaken, and then you gave me the opportunity to become an adventurer......
She said with a wry smile, her hands clenched secretly when I couldn't notice it.
"Wow! So rational?! I complained in my heart, I thought I could flicker quickly, but I forgot that this person's logic has never been offline!
And this also made me realize: If Gennai chooses to reject or deny me, her poisonous tongue and the degree of hitting the nail on the head will not be weaker than Lun and Qianxia at all.
"Hmm...... "I smacked my tongue in annoyance. Gennai said the real number of facts, but I can't agree with it, because if I do, it means that she owes me, which is contrary to my idea that I don't want to take slaves......
"But this one is really hard to fool......" I smiled wickedly, feeling myself rubbing against the edge of the rollover, "hehe, whatever, keep fooling around...... If you really can't do it, you will expose yourself. Deal... Disliked, then abandoned, even... Treachery... Well...... Hehe, what's there. β
My expression was slightly lost for a second, but immediately returned to the cute smile that was marked: "Ahaha, sister, you are really smart......
I smirked, but Genna still didn't speak, her silence made me nervous.
I continued, "But I'm not trying to comfort you, I'm just stating the facts. My sister's analysis is indeed correct, but my sister has overlooked an important thingβ"
She didn't speak, just looked at me in confusion. The expression that slowly changed from a wry smile to a hint of suspicion. A pair of affectionate eyes with a hint of sadness and frowning brows made me see the pain and uneasiness in her heart. But there was no pain in my heart...... There are even some ...... Satisfy. Tut.
"At the right time," I continued. "If you ignore time, on the surface, it's the power I brought to you. But from the perspective of time, it was because sister, you chose to trust me first, so that I had the opportunity to give you the ability. You traded your trust for everything you have now, and I gave you this in return for your trust. Ha ha... So sister, you never owe me anything, and you don't need to worry about that."
After finishing speaking, I smiled and tried to act like a child learning from an adult, and to tell the truth.
Learn instead of pretending, learn from adults: you need to show your seriousness and seriousness; And pretending to be an adult, I need to perform a little clumsiness on the basis of 'learning'. At this time, I chose to learn adults.
Genna's gaze fell on my face for a long time, and her face was still that sad, self-reproachful, and with a hint of shyness.
I know that my words will be full of loopholes if I read them carefully, but ...... That's already my best effort. I've done my best to steer the conversation to the end I wanted! The next thing is to see if Gennai accepts it.
Time passed by second by second, but I felt that it was incomparably long, and every second was like minutes. Because every extra second means that your words are more likely to be found to be loopholed. My heart was beating very slowly, everything was going very slowly.
It's been 1 second...... It's been 2 seconds...... Eldest sister! Please, reply to me!!
My smiling eyes slowly opened, staring at the big clear eyes of concern and kindness, looking at Genna, and I definitely couldn't show a trace of wavering! Genna's expression was still that sad look, I guess she was thinking......
It's been 3 seconds!! Yes! 4 seconds! It's over, it's over!
Cold sweat flowed from my sideburns.
5 seconds! Wow! Big sister, please don't be silent!!
Finally she spoke! "Uh, is that so?" Her eyes wavered, and the expression that had been hesitant became cheerful at this moment, and there was a hint of happiness in those blue eyes. She smiled with satisfaction, "Hmm...... Sorry master, I... I...... I see. I won't say anything more about being your slave again...... I won't say anything more about doubting that you will want me. Please rest assured, master."
I looked at her flawless and lovely smile, that lingering smile like an evening primrose bathed in silver moonlight, I was stunned, my expression froze.
"Hmm!! Finished! Spotted!! "Although this one did say what I wanted her to say! But obviously, it's not because of my guidance! Instead, she saw what I was thinking, so she took the initiative to say 'what I wanted her to say'!
"Wow!!"
For a moment, I felt like I was 'wearing a cute dress, and then running in front of my sister, constantly twisting my body, not saying a word, just waiting for my sister's praise, and then even though I got the praise, I felt that there was something wrong', which made people shy!!
(Whisper: MD What a metaphor for me!) )
Wow! I'm desperate anyway...... Although judging by the results, it is not bad......
[99 stunned for 0.6 seconds]
"Well, that's it." I kept my cute smile and jumped out of bed. Turning around, and tilting his head slightly, he said, "Good night~Genna~"
Although it was different from the original plan, now I can only choose to leave, because Gennai has already understood my intentions, so it is useless to say more, and it is better to end it early.
"Well, good night." Genna still looked at me with that sister-like smile that doted on her sister, plain and delicate eyebrows and that cute smile. There was still a hint of self-reproach in her blue eyes, and there was still a little bitterness, but more of an understanding and patience.
Her look of stoicism, and the thoughtful tone of her voice, made me even more sure that she had seen through my thoughts. And more sure just now: 'She just went along with me and gave me a promise I needed her to say.' β
