Chapter 70: Caught off guard
At this moment, Helliga did not know what kind of huge waves he had set off at the top of the two sides. Rather, even if he had expected this, he was not in the mood to care about those things at this moment.
Because just now, he received a guiding contact from Fei. The latter sent him to a café in the city, and after giving the detailed address, he decisively cut off the communication.
It stands to reason that Fei's attitude towards herself should not be like this. But Heiliga was also more or less aware of something. So he didn't slack off and rushed to the scene.
Inside the café, Helriga found Faye in a corner seat. Unlike what he imagined, Fei was not much different from before, she was still the same, she asked him to sit down with an indifferent face, and then - picked up the menu.
"Huh?" Heiliga noticed the action.
"Before...... When I was in that jewelry store, when I got the little crown back. Fei's voice was small, but clear, "The shopkeeper gave us ...... Leftovers for a lot of gemstone processing...... It is...... That one...... Changed a lot of money......"
"......" Helliga was stunned, what was the situation?
"Hmm...... That is to say - you have coffee, please. Fei raised her head with a determined look in her eyes, "No problem, right?" ”
“…… No, no problem. Frightened by Fei's abnormal behavior, there may also be a ghost in his heart - Heliga is also abnormal, he doesn't have the usual lightweight look, just agrees dryly, as if he is an innocent little boy in his first love.
After that, under the gaze of the smiling waiter, Fei jerkily and bravely ordered the complicated-looking dessert - Helica, who was supposed to help at this time, also stood in place like a zombie in this wonderful atmosphere, and breathed a sigh of relief as he watched Fei complete the final signature.
"Whew...... She said it was the store's sign. Fei let out a sigh of relief.
"What about the price?" Heiliga asked curiously.
"3,000 meters per serving...... A bit pricey. But, well, that's a little bit. Fei raised her still immature cheeks, which made Helriga chuckle.
"yes, yes...... Then I'll hug your thighs today and have a dessert. "Anyway, today's events make me quite nervous......
"Don't worry, you can relax soon." Fei dumbled his knuckles on the table in boredom, "Didn't His Highness Olibat say that?" The royal family seems to be going to entertain us...... What, Yo-...... Hot springs? ”
"It's Yumir...... The hot spring town in the north is also Lane's hometown. It is a place with beautiful snow scenery in winter. "There's the hot spring baths of the Phoenix Wing Pavilion with the name of the royal family. ”
"In the name of the royal family?"
"yes...... Because the lord there, Baron Theo Schwarzer, was once the current emperor and a close friend of Yukent III during his school years...... Kind of like the relationship between Elphine and Elysée right now. ”
"Yes." When Helliga mentioned Elfin's name, Faye seemed a little disappointed, but it was quickly swept away, "But...... Seriously, this attack is really weird. ”
"yes...... Speaking of which. Heliga suddenly thought, "The strong man who attacked the Great Templar ......"
"That's the guy you followed before you came to Zephyr, right? Well, it looks like something has happened. "Fei already knows about it," Anyway, do you know? You're kind of like that time now. ”
"Me? Like at which time? ”
"That's when I first met you...... Back then, you were always submissive to me. Fei smiled evilly, "It's not like later, he always touched my head casually, and he would stare at me for a long time while I was asleep." ”
"How do you know—ah." Halfway through the words, Heiliga realized that he had been tricked - how could Fei, who was asleep, notice this?
"I knew that." Fei sneered, "Look, didn't you admit it?" ”
"Alas......" Helriga covered her face exaggeratedly, "Fei has also learned badly...... This can't be a bad trick taught to you by the girls in the class. ”
"It's not...... It's just that you're the way you were back then, and you're so easy to deceive. Fei said proudly, "You were nervous because I was nervous, right?" Now because of whom? ”
"......" for a moment, Helriga's smile froze on his face. How can I continue with this?
Although it is still calm on the surface, the abnormality just now is already very illustrative of various problems.
While Heliga was thinking a little awkwardly, the waiter had already delivered two sumptuous desserts to the two of them. Faye didn't seem to care about Helica's silence, but picked up the spoon and took a bite of the cream cake with just the right amount of sweetness and texture.
"You like His Highness Elphing, right?" Coldly, Fei suddenly threw out such a sentence.
“…… You...... How do you know? At that moment, Helriga suddenly felt relieved. For some reason, after Fei personally pierced this layer of window paper, he was relieved. didn't deny it, just asked rhetorically in a somewhat surprised tone.
"It's easy to see. I know you very well. Fei avoided Helica's gaze, "Obviously afraid of trouble for people other than friends, but inexplicably put a lot of extra energy into her affairs; His Highness Olibart seems to be consciously trying to match the two of you, right? ”
"You know everything?" Let Fei say these words in person, Hailiga really never expected it. And Fei still said such things in a calm and natural tone, which made Hailiga feel even more uneasy. If she is like a normal jealous girl now, sneering at her for a sentence or two, she can still make herself feel a little more at peace.
Anyway, nothing has happened between himself and Erfen, if Fei is really angry, he can only dispel this current thought. In that case, there is room for redemption.
Just as Helriga was thinking about herself, she heard a chuckle from Fey.
Not sarcastic and angry sneers, not the kind of dry laugh that forces oneself – but rather natural laughter.
"Why is it like this?" She turned and looked at Helliga with a playful but serious look, "I haven't said anything yet. Or do you think I'm going to be angry with you...... Well, the so-called "flowery" behavior? ”
“…… Don't...... Aren't you angry? "This is something that Heiliga doesn't understand at all.
"Of course not." Fei said in a strange tone, as if Helriga had just denied a fact that everyone knew, "I just wanted to confirm if this was the case...... So I don't have to worry. ”
“……”
Heiliga felt that something seemed wrong today.
