Volume 1: Pride Chapter 41: On the Healing of Psychological Scars

"Miss, she ......"

"Shh......h Let her sleep. With a single finger against her lips, she directly interrupted Ye Lianli's words, and Rita looked at the girl lying in her arms and smiled sincerely.

Time passed as the two of them waited, and it wasn't until Aprili broke free from the children's entanglement and carried Dalena into the bamboo house that Rita spoke again: "I know you have a lot of doubts, so if you want to know anything, just ask, it will be my reward for saving your life." ”

"Well, first question, are you really the princess of the Duchy of Evel?"

Ye Lianli stared at Rita tightly, as if trying to judge the truth of what she said by the change in the expression on her face, but Rita didn't react except for some surprise when she heard the question.

"Why ask this question? Is it important? ”

"It's important."

"That's good." Looking up at the seriousness on Ye Lianli's face, Rita didn't continue to ask anything, just nodded and admitted, "I don't know if my father has other children, but I am indeed the princess of the Duchy of Evel, Rita Evel." But ......"

"But?"

"If you want me to prove it, then please don't say it. After all, I think you should know about the affairs of the Duchy of Evel, and the aristocracy basically has no living except for me. ”

Rita's eyelids drooped, and to this day she can still vividly recall the day Elivier was breached, and it was from that day that she truly realized her weakness. The pain and despair of watching someone she knew lose their lives to protect herself, she didn't want to experience it a second time.

"Indeed, you don't have to prove anything in terms of relationships, and like you said, I only ask these questions because I have some doubts about you in my heart." Ye Lianli straightened her skirt and knelt opposite Rita before speaking again, "The Duchy of Evel has been established for less than a hundred years, and the area occupied by the country is not very large, and even the strength among the principalities is at the bottom. ”

"You're right, so what are you trying to express?" Seeing that Ye Lianli suddenly stopped talking, Rita asked back very cooperatively.

"I'm just curious about why such a country that doesn't have much power and is not strong has appeared in the past few years, such as Xiaoyueluo Evelina and you."

"A character like me?" Rita raised her eyebrows and glanced at Ye Lianli with some confusion, "Please also ask Miss Ye Lianli to speak directly...... What do you mean by a character like me? ”

“……”

Ye Lianli pursed her lips and was silent, just staring at Rita quietly for a while before sighing: "Maybe I've thought too much, the captain's situation has been getting worse and worse recently, and I'm also a little worried about her that's why I'm questioning you like this, I hope you can understand." ”

"It's okay." In the face of Ye Lianli's nod and apology, Rita didn't feel anything, after all, the people in front of her didn't say whether it had an impact on her, even if it did, it was just an unintentional mistake, and others also sincerely said that she didn't have much fun holding on to it.

"But can you tell me about it? About your captain, or rather...... Princess? ”

"You know everything?" Ye Lianli was a little surprised, but then nodded as if she had thought of something, "Also, don't look at the princess's usual big grin, but her heart defense is much heavier than anyone else's." In the face of someone she just knew, let alone falling asleep like she had just done, even if someone wanted to approach her while she was asleep, she would immediately find out. ”

"Are you the same?"

"yes, even Aprilie would have been discovered if she hadn't deliberately held her breath." Seeing Rita looking at herself with a puzzled expression, Ye Lianli showed a wry smile, "Even if you have been with her for almost three years, no one can get close to the sleeping princess in a state of complete unpreparedness, but Princess Rita, you have done this, so I hope that if possible, you can accompany her more, so maybe you can open your heart knot." ”

Faced with the sudden seriousness of the person in front of her, Rita did not open her mouth to agree, but once again asked the question she asked before: "Can you tell me what her heart knot is first?" Her appearance is not just as simple as an ordinary trauma, and if I don't know the reason, even I will find it difficult to guide. ”

Although Dalena's scars were tightly hidden in the deepest and darkest corners of her heart, she could see the deepest secret at a glance.

That pretended calm posture and slightly floating eyes reflected the combined stress response brought about by a survivorship syndrome and centripetal delusion, coupled with Dalena's inadvertent uneasiness and defensiveness, like quicksand passing in the palm of her hand, she could easily see through the fragility of the strong and the middle.

After all, in her previous life, she was also a counselor, and although these are long gone, they are still deeply engraved in her mind. That's right, she is the kind of reincarnation with memories mentioned in the online article in her previous life, but she didn't tell anyone about it, of course, not because she was afraid of being burned as a heretic, but because she ...... It's too hard to talk about.

A car accident that is not a car accident, even though you were not hit by the car but was scared to death, this kind of death...... It's too dark history.

Suppressing the urge to cover her face in her heart, Rita listened while quietly analyzing what Ye Lianli said. As she had guessed, Dalena had suffered a lot of torture as a child: her mother died tragically, she was mistaken for a murderer, and then she was imprisoned by her biological father, bled and drank tonics......

Wait a minute, bloodletting? Although I have heard of the cruelty of the king of the Ames Empire, but on the whole it is only relatively belligerent, so what is such a person doing with his daughter's blood if he has nothing to do? Or is there something going on?

Thinking of this, Rita frowned without the slightest concealment, and the novels she had read in her previous life turned into a storm of various conspiracy theories hovering in her mind.

"That, Princess Rita? Princess Rita? ”

"Ahh The shout in her ears made Rita come back to her senses instantly, but the worried face that occupied the entire line of sight suddenly startled her, "What's the matter, it turned out to be Miss Ye Lianli." ”

Rita patted her chest to reveal an overly frightened expression, and then before she could speak again, she heard a nervous voice coming from Ye Lianli's mouth: "Did it scare you?" ”

"It's a little, but it's not a big deal." Looking at Ye Lianli's worried look, Rita suddenly had the illusion of having an affair but being caught on the spot, but as soon as this idea came up, she directly threw it out of her mind, "Ahem, let's talk about Dalena's problem first." ”

It was obvious to change the topic, but Ye Lianli subconsciously ignored the past, and at this time all her attention was attracted by Rita's words: "Have you already thought of a corresponding method?" ”

Ye Lianli's voice was full of rare excitement, although she had the idea of trying it at first, but she didn't expect that the person in front of her would really give a solution, you must know that even the bishops in those churches said that there was no way.

"Don't worry, I'll say what I need to say, but before I can say my plan, I must tell you one thing in advance."

"What's the matter?" Seeing Rita's serious face, Ye Lianli withdrew her hands on her shoulders and sat upright, and at the same time understood that she was too excited about what she had just done.

"I have a way to heal Dalena, but whether or not I succeed in the end depends on whether she really wants to get out of this traumatic cage."

"I understand this." Ye Lianli nodded, her face did not show obvious expectation, in fact, the reason why she asked Rita to help with this was only because she saw Dalena's instinctive willingness to be close to this person. As for the cure...... In such a situation, she naturally knew how low the probability was.

"Well, it's best if you think so. The cycle of treatment can be long or short, depending on her own will. I'm going to stay here and guide her as much as I can for the next few days, and as for a few of you......"

Rita glanced at the three people who appeared behind Ye Lianli at some point, and a big smile suddenly bloomed on her face: "Those children, please take care of them these days!" ”

After saying that, Rita didn't pay attention to the expressions on the faces of several people, and directly smeared oil on the soles of her feet and slipped away!

"I guess I heard you right, right? That Rita just told us to take care of the little ones? ”

"You heard me right, that's exactly what Miss Rita said." Angel rubbed her toes and wanted to pat Bernice on the shoulder to comfort her, but the difference in height only made her fall back...... Just give up.

"No, I'll have to go to her and talk about it, or ......" Boneston's scalp tingled at the thought of the powerlessness she felt when she was surrounded by the little ones, and even though there were four of them, she didn't know why the children liked to revolve around her. Especially after Ye Lianli and April left, this situation became even more serious, watching Angel chatting happily with another girl of the same age, while she was ravaged by a group of little guys climbing up and down, but she couldn't beat or scold, she could only hold back her anger and laugh.

"Miss Rita and the captain are in the same room, if you want to go to her and protest, you can try."

The fluttering words made the enthusiasm in Bernice's chest suddenly extinguished, and the originally raised foot instantly shrank back when he saw Ye Lianli's smiling face: "Okay, this time it's for the captain's sake...... I reluctantly played with it this time. ”
