Chapter 40: Back to Earlshire
"Welcome home to Lord Count and Countess!" All the new servants in Earlshire had changed into their new uniform costumes and stood neatly along the gravel road. Steward Qi greeted the two people at the gate.
"Have you run out of invitations?" Collins asked.
Steward Qi: "A total of 194 invitation letters have been personally delivered by me to the owner, nobles, and famous entrepreneurs. ”
Then, Steward Qi took the two of them in to explain the newly installed smart home appliances. Collins was generally satisfied, but Ji Yiru was absent-minded, in other words, she was not ready to return to this county government.
Earlshire has changed a lot, in addition to introducing the latest smart appliances, and transforming the fountain into a swimming pool, but the sculpture of Duke Collins has not been dismantled. In addition, the large chandeliers in the hall are no longer there, and Collins has two rows of small wall lamps in curves on the walls, and the lights on the stairs are installed under the parapets on both sides. All the bulbs can change color, and the style can be intelligently customized according to the owner's preferences, which adds a lot of serenade to the whole hall.
"The sofa should be circular style, the coffee table should not be too low, and the TV should be replaced with a wall screen." Collins spoke with a hint of unhappiness, which made her feel abandoned when she had no right to speak.
She went to the room where she had lived by herself, and the first thing she saw was the clean glass window, and she hurried there, and there was no writing on the glass at all. The sky was clear outside, but she couldn't see any life, and she found the place where the handwriting had been, and put her hand on the cold blank space. Yes, it's easy to think of Duke Collins at this time.
"I can see the most wonderful things flowing through your body."
"If you choose me, I will make you a mistress and have all the rights of a mistress."
She closed her eyes wearily and thought to herself, "I'm afraid he's really just obsessed with my blood, and I foolishly think he really loves me." When she opened her eyes, she looked at the window that seemed to be non-existent, trying to plan for what would happen later: she would quarrel with him because his self-centered personality was already in shape.
"You're here." Collins slowly approached her, and when he stopped behind her, she asked, "What about my memory?" ”
"What memory?" He unknowingly tried to take her in his arms, but she dodged away in disgust. She pointed to the clean glass window and questioned him with wide eyes, and he realized the gravity of the matter. "I'm sorry I forgot to remind them."
"Do you know how important it is to me?" She burst into tears. But he didn't know what to do, so he could only tilt his head to the side and remain silent.
"The reason why I chose you in the first place was because of it, is it just in your way? Now that you've finally ruined it, rejoice! ”
"I'm sorry, we're not suitable, you hate your dad, but I respect him very much now, at least he used to be very good to me and took care of my thoughts, but what about you? I listened to you from beginning to end, and I can tell you what I think when you say it, but have you asked? ”
She was already in tears, looked at him indifferently in front of her, did not choke up, and did not say any more. He looked up, and when he met her gaze, his cold heart melted instantly.
"I was wrong." He replied weakly.
She leaped forward and slammed into his wide arms, trying to convince herself that he loved her. "Why didn't there be a quarrel!" She miscalculated the future again, both times because of him, the first time she didn't know he could fly, and this time she didn't know that he had really changed. He stroked her hair carefully, thinking about how to salvage her wounded heart, but he still didn't know what to do.
"Are you obsessed with my blood or are you going to be with me for real?" She asked.
"The latter." He replied without hesitation.
"What about the nursery? Why not prepare a nursery room? ”
"I don't want it."
"But I want to."
"Why? That almost killed you last time, and I don't want you to risk it. ”
"It's not an adventure," she said, looking at the window "far away," describing the future in the window, "we're going to have a child, a daughter." She will restore the surname Gongye and use Bai as the character. She's good, smart, cute, and sensible. ”
"What about you?" His biggest concern was her. She smiled, "Of course I will raise her with you and make her the successor to the master." ”
"But I won't take care of the kids."
"Trust me, you'll be a good father, I'm 100% sure."
Of course, he chose to believe her, because he believed in her budgeting ability, and he also looked forward to having such a daughter.
