Chapter 1617: A Natural Actor
"I didn't say that you weren't worthy of being a city lord, or that you weren't suitable to be a city lord," I spread my hands and smiled: "You are inexplicably accusing me, are you ringing in your ears, or are you hallucinating?" ”
"You ......" Carter Eva froze, and pointed at me with his white index finger for a long time, but not a word popped out.
"Okay, Xiao Yi, don't tease my sister" Rodney took a step forward, blocking between me and Eva, a little helpless, and said, "Let's take us to meet the person who met us." ”
I pouted, bored.
With the brother and sister, they went all the way and soon arrived at the restaurant.
I walked up to the second floor, pushed open the door, and said, "Achilles is up, let's see, who's coming." ”
At this time, Achilles was already sitting at the dining table in neat clothes, his resolute and hard-lined face turned sideways, his eyes flashed, he suddenly got up, came over a few steps, bowed and said, "Achilles, I have seen two young masters." ”
Rodney and Eva were startled and took a step back.
Rodney hid behind me in a very unproductive way, and Eva hid behind Rodney even more unproductively.
"Hey, look at your two points, this legendary heroic squire Achilles who fought side by side with your ancestors will also be your personal guard in the future, hurry, go over, see the reason, don't let the top master of the family pestle there, make it look like there is a telephone pole erected in this room."
The telephone pole was clearly not from this world, but the other three people in the room didn't recognize the meaning of my inexplicable words.
Achilles is not interested in new words at all, he is just a pure strong man, he just wants to be strong, and protect the descendants of his former master.
Rodney and Eva were so frightened that they didn't listen to me.
"Hey, these two guys" I flashed and looked at the back of Rodney's head: "You're stupid, go over and help people up and talk!" ”
My actions obviously aroused Achilles's dissatisfaction, but Rodney was not embarrassed or angry, he was just stunned for a few moments, then hurriedly took two steps forward, bowed his head and saluted: "Boy Rodney, I have seen Lord Achilles." ”
This kid, what's wrong with being a teacher in a noble family these days, how can you still add the word 'adult' after your name when you call others?
Achilles obviously also heard the discomfort of this, and he said respectfully: "I can't afford the word "lord, I used to be the attendant of the two ancestors Carter Adams, and swore allegiance to Lord Adams, and now by chance, I have been resurrected, and I should continue to fulfill the oath of the year, and the descendants of the lord who are loyal to him are, so please call me by my name directly, and I don't need to add any title." ”
"Oh, that's right," Rodney touched his nose in embarrassment, turned to me in embarrassment, and lip-studied.
The meaning of that lip shape is easy to understand: what should I do?
I rolled my eyes and ignored him, which was the most obvious reply to him: do your own thing, don't put me in it.
Rodney coughed awkwardly twice, helped Achilles up first, brought him to the table, and took a seat.
After the two of them sat down, Rodney turned his mind and began to chat with Achilles nonchalantly.
At the same time, I tugged at Eva's cuffs and motioned for her and me to sit on the other side and not disturb her brother's conversation with Achilles.
Although Eva was a little dissatisfied with my behavior, because of her status, it was not good to argue in person here, so she sat aside with me.
We just stared at Rodney and Achilles' awkward conversation, and I wanted to laugh.
Suddenly, my left arm hurt slightly, I turned my head, and saw that Eva's girl was frowning at me, she lowered her voice, and said: "Hasn't this Achilles always been good friends with my second brother, why did he suddenly come here and say that he wanted to see us, you, you shouldn't betray our brother and sister!" ”
I glanced at her: "Can you not have such a big brain, what am I doing betraying you brothers and sisters, is it good?" Even if there are benefits, there will be even greater benefits from supporting your brother as the city lord of Eri City in the future? ”
"You support my brother?" She frowned, "Why don't you support me?" ”
I looked her up and down and chuckled, "You're not as interesting as your brother." ”
Eva instantly looked terrified: "Could it be that you, you are interesting to my brother?" ”
I rolled my eyes and said, "Where do you want to go, at such a young age, why are your heads full of nonsense, maybe the courses you teach are also all such messy things, right?" ”
"What do you say?" Eva was very displeased: "I'm an authentic princess of Ari City, and the things I teach are naturally only accessible to the royal family, and for the child of the marquis's family, it is already a great favor!" ”
"Yo," I chuckled, "In that case, the marquis has to thank you?" ”
Eva snorted softly, "It's nature. ”
"Well, even so, you're not as interesting as your brother."
Eva raised her eyebrows: "What do you mean by that?" ”
"It's very simple, if it were you who sat in your brother's place, would you talk to Achilles for so long?"
Eva stopped talking for a moment, she thought for a moment and shook her head: "Can't...... bar. ”
"What do you mean you can't," I chuckled, "I can't, do you know why I'm so sure?" ”
"Why?" Eva blinked, puzzled.
"Because you're so noble," I said.
"I'm a princess, of course I'm noble, do I still need to say it?" Eva said rightfully.
"No, no, no, I'm not complimenting you," I shook my head, "I mean, you think you're too noble, so it's impossible for you to be friends with others." ”
"You ......" Eva's little face turned pale, she wanted to refute, but she was powerless.
"Your brother is different," I said lightly: "Don't look at your brother who looks restrained, and even a little flustered when he speaks, in fact, these are all illusions made in order not to cause more pressure on the other party." ”
Well, I confess, I said this behind my conscience, specifically to trick Eva, a pretentious but innocent little girl.
In fact, Rodney was simply frightened by Achilles's momentum and trembled, where did he have the heart to pretend?
But Eva is so simple, she pouted, thought for a while, and said, "It turned out to be pretending, pretending to be true." ”
I he: "Yes, it's because he pretends to be like that he is more capable of becoming the city lord, think about it, that city lord is not a natural actor, and he plans to plot against a certain prince and minister, or a palace nobleman, but in person, he is as close as a sibling, and he can't wait to meet and kiss." ”
