Chapter 46: Waiting (Part II)
Although Ye Qi did not cover up Gail's letter, Oprah took a step back without a trace the moment Ye Qi took out the letter, and at the same time his head hung down slightly - Ye Qi did not cover the content of the letter, which did not mean that he could watch it at will, Oprah, who was born in the Nosd family, had already engraved the family mark in his bones.
Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Oprah, and raised his eyebrows with disdain for the "tradition" Ye Qi of the big family - respect is not based on restraint or training from childhood, but from the heart; The respect of the former is, in Ye Qi's view, nothing more than pure formalism.
Of course, this does not mean that most people like such formalism; After all, that instantaneous sense of "accomplishment" is enough to confuse the minds of most people, making them deeply trapped in it
There wasn't a lot of content on the letter, and Ye Qi just glanced at it and saw a general idea - aside from the honorific titles with multiple titles at the beginning of the letter, the whole letter looked like a letter of greeting from a close friend to his friend; It does not mention anything of concern or interest in his use of Oprah's light this time; Moreover, in the last place to sign his name, Gale also replaced the former name of the patriarch of his own family of Nosd with a definition such as "your friend".
In this regard, Ye Qi showed neither joy nor disgust; Even if he knew that it was just Gail's courtesy—after all, the other party had shown enough kindness, even if it was more or less hypocritical.
Naturally, Ye Qi would definitely not show any other emotions for such a hypocritical wording that was only for the sake of the alliance - after putting the letter back in the envelope and putting it in the breast pocket of his jacket, Ye Qi nodded at Oprah and responded in the same polite tone: "Please reply to the greetings of the Gaelic Patriarch for me, and convey my gratitude to the Gaelic Patriarch and the entire Nosd family"
"It is incumbent on you, it is an honor for the entire Northside family"
Hearing Ye Qi's response, Oprah immediately bowed down with a smile, and then slowly exited the secret room - from the moment when Gail instructed Ye Qi to enter the Oprah light, as long as Ye Qi was still in Oprah's light for a day, this secret room was Ye Qi's "guest room"
Under the perception of the blind fight, after perceiving that Oprah was indeed far away, Ye Qi did not take out the "Samikina's Drive" to continue studying, but walked to the corner of the wall vacated by the secret room with the Enma Knife in his hand, and an imaginary enemy who fought against him slowly appeared in his mind - practicing with the Enma Knife unsheathed, this is not the first time for Ye Qi.
In fact, when he was learning the use of cold weapons, the first thing he picked up was a short knife carved from solid wood; And now the Enma Knife with its scabbard is nothing more than an upgraded version of a weighted and lengthened wooden short knife for him
Of course, now he is no longer what he used to be, and he is no longer the boy who can't even play with a wooden knife - shaking his head to shake the embarrassment of the first practice in his mind, Ye Qi took a deep breath and slashed out the Enma Knife in an instant
……
Bay Area, Landingburgh.
On the second floor of the hall of Northstead Manor, the billiards and other entertainment facilities in the original recreation room have long been removed, and the entire huge recreation room is only a puppet for fencing, as well as wooden and iron sword targets that are half-suspended in the air and covered with lime.
Dingdingding......
Chop chop chop ......
The sword target suspended in the air made a series of crisp and heavy sounds under the attack of the stabbing sword in Gofa's hand—dressed in breeches, and the chopped sleeves on the upper body revealed two well-defined arms.
After long-term unremitting exercise, coupled with a good food supply, Gefa's body has become significantly stronger; And from the smooth muscle lines, it can be seen that the strength of the song does not sacrifice agility - at this moment, the song of dodging back and forth in the suspended sword target and constantly throwing the sword out at the same time gives people the illusion of a cheetah predator.
Of course, judging from the white marks on the chopped sleeves and breeches, this cheetah still needs enough time to grow - the center of gravity of the upper body quickly deviated backwards, an iron bridge, Gefa neatly dodged the oncoming sword target, and Gefa, who was about to continue practicing, suddenly saw a figure appearing at the door from the corner of his eye.
With his hands on the ground and his waist strong, he quickly turned to the right, and then straightened up his body, and he left the sword target area that was still swaying from side to side, and came to the door of the practice room - the entire Northside family knew that he should never be disturbed in the practice of singing; But there were a few exceptions among them: his parents, his sister, and his butler Locke. ,
And now, standing in front of the practice room is none other than his sister Linda. Northd—long chestnut hair running down her cheeks and falling straight down the shoulders of her white dress; The eyes that marked the Norsd family's ocean-blue were now obscured by a pair of glasses.
"Sister" Gefa wiped the sweat overflowing from her forehead and greeted Linda: "You just awakened your ability, didn't your father let you rest more?"
"It doesn't matter" Linda stretched out her hand and wiped the sweat that had not been wiped clean with a handkerchief - feeling her sister's tenderness, Gefa's face turned red, and she said uncomfortably: "I'll do it myself"
Looking at the song of reaching out and snatching the handkerchief, Linda couldn't help but smile slightly; However, Linda's smile quickly retracted, her eyes looked to the side in a daze, and she was slightly distracted - Linda's appearance instantly attracted the attention of Gefa, and she couldn't help but say: "Sister, you can actually ......"
"No" Gefa's words made Linda come back to her senses instantly, and immediately interrupted Gefa's words, and said in a firm tone: "Sister can't give up the whole family because of her own happiness Lu Dao You, father, mother, and Locke are all members of the family......"
"But ......"
Gefa wanted to say something, but in Linda's serious expression, nothing was said in the end; However, when Linda leaves, Gefa mutters to herself, "Is the family really that important?" ”
Singing to himself, his gaze glanced again at the place where Linda had been looking—the same place where Yedge had stood when he had taught him......
