Chapter 35: Mother and Daughter

Are you interested in coming to my house for a light meal?

In fact, since meeting Christie this morning, Gesheng hasn't turned down any of her requests. [Full text reading. 】

Whether it was the exemption she asked for in Qingzhi Gensokyo, or the scenery she invited him to see in the Flash Gold Chamber of Commerce, Ge Sheng did not refuse.

It's not that Ge Sheng has a heart for love, or is submissive, it's just that every request of this girl named Christie is precisely stepping on the most harmonious music in the conversation, which makes you feel that if you reject her, it will be a great abruptness and offense.

If this is a talent, Ge Sheng sometimes thinks that this is probably one of the most terrifying talents in the world.

So when Christie made this request, Ge Sheng had no reason to refuse.

As he walked through the underground courtyard with a crystal roof and the sun, moon and stars, and opened the closed door of the mansion, Ge Sheng glanced back at the delicate garden that was no different from the ground, and when he looked ahead, Ge Sheng saw two people.

Men and women.

They wore simple and slim yet elegantly stunning red and white home dresses, white for men and red for women, and their long dark chestnut hair, which was different from the crown of their hair in an indescribable way.

"I've seen my father, my mother."

Christie bowed quietly beside Ge Sheng, made a very standard greeting gift, and then smiled and said, "I brought my friends back for dinner." ”

The man nodded, his face was delicate and thoughtful, with an indescribable elegance, both in terms of face shape and temperament, there were many similarities with Christie, and he smiled when he heard this: "Tina doesn't say hello first, there are no good dishes to cook at home." ”

The woman on the other side was slightly angry, glaring at Christie coldly, as if she was very dissatisfied with her bringing Ge Sheng back.

When Ge Sheng saw the woman for the first time, he suddenly realized why he had a mistake between Christy and An Ning's mother at that time.

Because, this woman who is called a mother by Christie, although her appearance and temperament are not similar to An Ning.

But that peculiar taste, or rhyme, is exactly the same as Ge Sheng's mother who has been with him for more than ten years.

"Mom~~" Christie shrunk her neck, and screamed sweetly and almost coquettishly, Ge Sheng had seen the awe-inspiring and graceful side of this girl, but he didn't imagine that when this girl was in front of her mother, she was also like countless other ordinary girls, delicate and willful: "I brought Aunt An Ning's child back to see you, don't show your face, okay?" ”

"Anning?" The woman's eyes focused slightly, and then she went straight to Ge Sheng, stabbing his skin a little painfully: "You are Ge Qiu's son?" ”

Ge Sheng looked at each other in surprise: "Do you know my parents?" ”

"Don't you know ......" Christie just wanted to speak, but was coldly glanced at by the woman, so she silently closed her mouth, and Ge Sheng only glanced at it, and felt very happy.

There's nothing more fun about seeing this guy eat deflated.

"Ye Ye-san." The woman stated succinctly, and then looked at Ge Sheng quietly, but her gaze finally softened: "Your mother never mentioned us, did she?" ”

Who are we referring to without mentioning us?

In Ge Sheng's memory, most of the time, Anning's mother just looked like an ordinary mother, teaching him some of the most ordinary knowledge and skills, except that he had not aged, there was nothing surprising compared to any mother.

She never mentioned anything like her past friends, and even Ge Qiu's existence was only explained in a few words.

It wasn't until later that Ge Sheng slowly realized how powerful and powerful his mother used to be.

"Nope." Ge Sheng shook his head.

"She's the most arrogant of us, so she chose to favor Ge Qiu at first, and we couldn't believe it at first, until time slowly passed, and we slowly learned that she was the one who knew best what she wanted." The woman slowly explained, "I'm Stella, Stella Croft, maybe your mother was a student, or one of her best friends for life, but then she suffered a great change and cut off all contact with us in frustration. ”

Even if Stella didn't say it, Ge Sheng could guess that the so-called big change was naturally related to his father's death.

"But now." Stella smiled with a wry smile that was imperceptible: "An Ning really raised a good son." ”

"Disciple of Chivalry." Stella's eyes suddenly turned to Ge Sheng coldly, and the warmth of Fang Cai was gone.

"Do you know what it means to be here with my daughter?"

Ge Sheng looked at Christie, who was staring at him with an intriguing smile, and then shook his head: "I don't know. ”

Stella was slightly stunned, then looked at Christie in confusion, as if even she didn't understand what her daughter wanted to do.

"I just wanted to bring him here for a light meal." Christie smiled and said, until this point, her attitude from the first polite and restrained to the coquettish and gentle after returned to the kind of mild indifference that Ge Sheng was most familiar with, a feeling that everything was under her control, like a monarch looking around the land.

The man, who had been silently watching his wife confront his daughter, finally spoke up, and he smiled and reached out to rub Christie's long, silky chestnut hair, deliberately messing up its otherwise smooth lines.

"In that case, Tina, you can cook, it's been a long time since I've tasted the craftsmanship of the little sweetheart at home."

Christie lowered her head, curled up like a fledgling and seemed to accept her father's caress with a little enjoyment, and then smiled and nodded, "Father, please look forward to it." ”

In this way, Christie went to the kitchen alone, leaving only Gesheng and her parents together, and it was only then that Gesheng discovered that this huge labyrinthine building, with at least a hundred rooms in the palace, was inhabited only by Christie's parents.

In Christie's previous description, this black and white hall, or the underground palace, is the core asset of the Clouft family, and according to her description of growing up here, it is at least responsible for all the food, clothing, housing and transportation of the core members of the entire Clouft family, whether it is from the scale of the black and white palace or from the arrangement of the rooms, this is a fact that can be easily inferred.

But now the truth in front of Ge Sheng is that there are only these two people here.

Not even a servant or maid accompanied him.

It's like captivity.
