Volume 1: Arrogance Sixty-Six: Little Sister?
While the two were discussing, Xiao Yueluo also followed Pierre to the lounge on the second floor.
"Come on, come on, you're welcome to come to me, oh, by the way, you wait, I'll make a cup of tea."
The kind tone and the smiling face full of enthusiasm made Xiao Yueluo suddenly feel for a moment, and at the same time, the busy back gradually overlapped with the figure in her memory.
Why? Obviously, it used to be like an enemy, but when those memories poured into my mind like a spring......
Xiao Yueluo was a little puzzled, even if she was downstairs just now, she was still vigilant, but now all that was left in her heart was those nostalgia for the picture in her mind.
"You...... It doesn't feel the same way I used to do it now. ”
"Oh? Is it? Maybe it's your own problem. Glancing at the girl sitting on the sofa, Pierre's contemplative appearance surprised Pierre, "Drink?" ”
handed the teacup in his hand to Xiao Yueluo, and then sat opposite the girl with the cup in his hand.
"This tea ......" took a sip of the black tea in her hand, and Xiao Yueluo's pretended calm face was suddenly filled with surprise.
"Yes, I specially asked someone to bring it back from that place, and it's been a while since then, but the way to preserve it is better." The corners of Pierre's mouth curled into a smile, as if he was very satisfied with the reaction of the person in front of him, "Of course, I can give you some if you want, after all...... It's just a type of ordinary tea for me. ”
"Ordinary tea...... Xiao Yueluo lowered her head, her fingers constantly drawing circles on the rim of the cup, "How can I listen to what you have to say?" ”
"If you think so, I can't help it." Pierre shrugged his shoulders, his tone full of helplessness, "Speaking of which, what are you trying to do here to make a fuss about me this time?" I'm afraid if I don't give a proper reason......"
"My weapon has been taken, you should ...... No, I should say that you asked you to take it, right? ”
With her eyelids lowered, Xiao Yueluo's gaze fell completely on the teacup, but the words that came out made Pierre very puzzled: "The big sword that Princess Rita gave you?" I didn't let anyone take it. ”
"What did you say!"
There was surprise, there was doubt, but more often than not, there was excitement. Xiao Yueluo propped her hands on the coffee table, her face almost in front of Pierre, and the teacup that should have been in the girl's hand was also knocked over at this time due to the sudden movement, and at the same time, the black tea in the cup flowed down the coffee table, and finally fell to the ground.
"Ahem, why is it still the same after so many years." Pierre was a little speechless, he still remembered that every time he went to find Rita before, the girl in front of him was all kinds of radical, although it couldn't be seen on the surface, but the alertness under the nervous tension couldn't deceive people, to be honest, there were many times back then, if he hadn't reacted quickly, he would have really fallen into the trap of the girl in front of him.
"What ...... that" Seeing that Xiao Yueluo still didn't speak, Pierre sighed, and when he spoke again, he also extracted the impression of the person in front of him from his memory, "Since you think I sent someone to do it, is there any evidence?" Otherwise, even if it is an old acquaintance, I don't want to carry this inexplicable black cauldron. ”
"Evidence I have ......"
Pierre just wanted to take a sip of the teacup when he heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly and looked at the person in front of him, now he really wanted to know which bastard pushed this kind of thing on him, you must know that this girl was already difficult to deal with more than ten years ago, and now it is ......
Thinking of this, Pierre subconsciously shuddered, and inexplicably remembered the scene he had just seen downstairs.
"What is the proof?"
Pierre swallowed, a little apprehensive in his heart, in fact, he still made a lot of determination when he said this, you must know that just looking at Xiao Yueluo's current appearance, he understands that if this matter is not handled well today, I am afraid that he, the mercenary guild, will not be able to reach tomorrow.
"The one in red just now should be your son, right?"
Dressed in red?
Pierre thought about it and nodded immediately, and Xiao Yueluo didn't care what would happen after seeing this, and said directly: "That guy took my weapon, and I just followed him." ”
"......", no wonder the girl said that he instructed him, and what his son did should not be blamed, but ...... He really can't take this matter down today, after all, he also knows what kind of character his family is, stealing or something, if no one is behind it, he won't believe it.
Thinking like this, Pierre took a deep breath, and then shouted at the staircase with a full breath, "Stinky boy, you die for me!" ”
The roar spread to almost every corner of the Mercenary Guild, whether it was the staff on the job, or the mercenaries who came to the Mercenary Guild to take over the task, they all looked at the direction of the source of the sound for a while.
And Lester also stiffened when he heard this voice, and then showed a wry smile, as for those who were still talking and laughing with him a second ago, they also looked gloating at this moment. In particular, the act of covering his mouth and snickering annoyed him the most, you said you laughed and laughed, what does snickering mean? When he can't see? Of course, there were a few sympathetic glances at him, but that kind of gaze had no other effect than to give him a little headache.
"Then I'll go up and have a look."
After saying hello to a few people beside him, Lester went upstairs with a whole mood, but before he could fully walk up to the second floor, he shivered under the gaze of Xiaoyue Luo.
"Ahem, what's the matter with the old man suddenly calling me up?"
Under mental pressure, Lester reluctantly opened his mouth after finding a single-seater sofa to sit down.
"You're too embarrassed to ask! I ask you, did you take this girl's things? ”
Pierre pointed to Xiao Yueluo, who was drinking tea silently, and she looked away directly after Leicester walked up to the second floor, and if someone who didn't know saw it, she might think that she was watching the play.
"What's that?" Lester frowned a little puzzled for a moment, but quickly reacted, "You said that greatsword?" Didn't you tell me to get it? ”
"What do you say? Tell me again, you bastard! Pierre jumped to his feet, stood up and pointed at Lester's nose and scolded, "You're a good kid, aren't you?" The pot was thrown on Lao Tzu's head, I really thought I was too old to beat you, so my wings were stiff, right? I'll tell you, no matter what, Lao Tzu is still you, give me half a sentence of nonsense, be careful that I discount your legs! ”
Of course, what Pierre said was angry, and Lester naturally understood this, plus he realized that he had said the wrong thing, and he had to worry about the existence of other people in the room, so even if he had some resentment in his heart, he still accepted the reprimand honestly.
"Let's get rid of our anger first." Lester sneered and got up to Pierre's side and helped him sit down slowly, "I guess I was mistaken, but you really can't blame me for this." ”
The calm explanation, coupled with the almost flattering behavior, made Pierre also instantly extinguish his anger: "What do you say? ”
"Actually...... It was Hardy's seniors who asked me to do this. Saying that, Lester also glanced at Xiao Yueluo, who was sitting opposite, and saw that she suddenly raised her head, and her heart also "chuckled", for fear that the lord in front of her would be unhappy and make trouble again. But fortunately, Xiao Yueluo didn't make any other movements this time except raising her head, although the staring gaze made his scalp tingle, but anyway, it was much better than being locked by the killing intent.
Of course, in addition to Lester paying attention, Pierre also subconsciously glanced at Xiao Yueluo, but when he saw that she didn't react much, he secretly screamed "not good" in his heart.
"You're talking about Beard Hardy?"
Just as Lester was about to continue, Xiao Yueluo suddenly opened his mouth, and Pierre also knew that it was difficult to stop at this time, so he simply looked up at Lester who walked out from behind him, at this time he could only hope that his son would be smarter. Of course, he had heard the saying that the most shattering of human expectations was the cruel truth. So when Pierre heard Lester's straightforward answer, there was not a sense of loss, but a sense of relief after completing the task.
"That's right." Lester nodded, not noticing his father's eye that was about to blink to cramp, or even if he did, he didn't want to pay attention to it, "I was a little confused when Hardy's senior asked me to do this, but I didn't think too much about it because I was just helping to get something. By the way, you also know Hardy's predecessors? No, looking at you should be more than just a recognition. ”
Lester said as he looked up and down at the girl sitting on the couch, and his curious look hadn't stopped since he had just spoken.
"He's my teacher."
"I see." Lester continued to nod, and at the same time a smile curled up at the corner of his mouth, "So we are still half of the same family, I was a teacher five years ago, what about you?" ”
Xiao Yueluo silently looked at the person in front of her who suddenly looked excited, and then turned her puzzled gaze to Pierre, who sat down again at some point.
"Leave him alone, this bastard is pure convulsions." Pierre also had a headache when he helped his forehead, but in fact, he could guess his son's thoughts just by looking at those shining eyes. As an only child, Lester has always wanted to have a sister, but because his wife died early and Pierre did not want to marry again, this idea can only be regarded as an idea, and the passage of time is finally forgotten in the corner of memory.
It's just that what Pierre didn't expect was that today's stubble could actually hook Lester's idea again, and looking at it like this, where there is any trace of forgetting, it is clearly more "crazy".
Pierre complained silently in his heart, and Lester was naturally dissatisfied after getting his father's demolition, but he didn't have a seizure on the spot, after all, he had to make a good impression in front of this future "little sister" anyway, right? That's right, Lester has already labeled Xiao Yueluo's body as "his own little junior sister" from the beginning, although he doesn't know when the person in front of him worshipped the teacher.
