Chapter 147: Private Chat
"Haha, things are made to be used in the first place, rather than for those who don't know what to do, it's better to give you and me feel more practical." Nehemiah laughed again, obviously in a good mood, but this laughter was a little speechless to Rita, and she really couldn't understand: some people laugh and laugh, why do they always like to pat her on the shoulder? Doesn't it hurt?
Well, this force does not hurt much for her current body, and glancing at the large hand pressed on her shoulder, Rita silently sneered in her heart.
"Well, that's it this time, I'll go back first." Looking at the few people who suddenly appeared nearby, Nehemiah suddenly put away the smile on his face, but his eyes fell on Ye Lianli while showing a kind smile, and at the same time he nodded to say hello, but his eyes frowned imperceptibly when he swept over Dalena, but he didn't say anything else, as for the corners of his mouth twitching when he saw Bernice, he quickly looked away, and he didn't know what Bernice had done.
"What a casual old man." Looking at Nehmeya's departing back, Bernice stuck out her tongue mischievously, while Yelenli beside her was Dalena with a worried face, she didn't know if the others had noticed, but she noticed Nehmea's expression changed: Could it be that there is something wrong with Her Royal Highness's body?
"You don't seem to like him very much, has something happened?" Rita pulled Xiaoyueluo to Bernice's side and bit her ear, her voice filled with confusion.
"It's because I don't like him, it's clear that he doesn't like me." Bernice pursed her lips, and obvious resentment rose directly around her, and this time it also made Rita even more curious, and even Xiao Yueluo, who was still a little embarrassed just now, looked at her with a puzzled expression, and the meaning in those eyes was the most obvious.
"What the hell happened, tell me quickly!"
Rita dragged Bernice's clothes and urged the two, and Bernice didn't want to hide it, after all, this matter is not a secret, it can be said that many people know it, of course, this many people only refer to the large group of nobles who often live in the royal capital, as for others, as a nobleman, it is naturally impossible for people to know everything.
Just as Bernice and Xiao Yueluo were talking about their past grievances and hatreds, Navis also talked to Ronald.
"Your Highness, what is the matter with Mr. Charles looking for you just now?" Navis looked at Ronald with some doubts, the reason why he asked this was actually because he knew the possibility that the person in front of him would take the initiative to find Nehemea......
"He didn't look for me." Ronald shook his head slightly, and then continued in Navis's stunned gaze, "Don't believe it, because what I'm saying is the truth." ”
With that, Ronald ignored Navis and left the palace gate first after greeting a few people who were standing and whispering.
"It's really even a secret from me, I really don't know what I'm doing, but forget it, I'll be able to know when the time comes, and it's useless to dwell on these now." Navis shook his head as he stood still, then picked up his steps and chased in the direction the group had left.
That night, the villa office
"Hey, what's the matter with calling me?" The wooden double-sliding door was slammed open from the outside, and Rita walked straight inside.
"Now sit down there for a while, and wait until I finish this document in my hand." Ronald pointed to the set of sofas in his office, without even raising his head.
"It's really ......" Rita gave Ronald a roll of the eyes a little speechlessly, but she didn't say anything, after all, she also knew that Ronald was very busy with work, especially since he had been missing for a month. After glancing at the mountain of things on her desk, Rita turned and walked in the direction Ronald was pointing, and for some reason, the sight of the stack of papers gave her the illusion of returning to the senior classroom of her previous life, which was an infinite looping nightmare.
"But...... It's pretty good here. Rita sat back on the couch and touched the armrest of the couch with her hand: yes, leather.
The thought that popped up in her mind made Rita shake her head and smile, she almost forgot about it, those things back then, if she didn't do it all over again, I'm afraid she would be ...... now
"No, there is no if, since everything has happened, those previous ......"
"What if?" Suddenly, just as Rita shook her head and immersed herself in the past, Ronald's voice suddenly sounded overhead.
"I'll go!" Rita jumped to her feet in fright, and then the next second there was a "bang", followed by a dull grunt.
"It hurts, it hurts......" Rita sat down on the sofa with her forehead covered, and the tears in the corners of her eyes suddenly made Ronald twitch the corners of his mouth a little speechless.
"Are you alright?" Ronald rubbed the flush on his forehead and asked, he didn't expect Rita to jump up suddenly, and what he didn't expect was that this girl's forehead was so hard that it was about to catch up with the iron in the blacksmith's shop.
"Do you think I'm like there's nothing going on?" Rita looked up and pointed to her forehead in accusation, but when her eyes caught a glimpse of the redness on Ronald's forehead, she couldn't help but weaken, and at the same time asked tentatively, "Doesn't it hurt?" ”
Ronald was still stunned by Rita's roar, but when he reacted and wanted to apologize, he heard the latter sentence, especially when he saw the expression on Rita's face, he was immediately happy, he didn't expect the person in front of him to feel sorry, because he had always thought that Rita was not afraid of heaven and earth, and he would scare one when he caught one.
"It's okay, if you compare it to you." After saying something lightly, Ronald turned and sat directly opposite Rita, although his attitude fell on someone's eyes and was a little underwhelming.
"Tell me, what's the matter?" Rita yawned, this time it was rare that she didn't break out, as for the reason, in fact, it was because she was a little tired now, after all, she had been on the road for several days in a row, plus the shopping action that afternoon today, now she really wanted to lie on the bed and sleep well, if it wasn't for the guy in front of her who suddenly called her over, she should have hugged Xiao's soft body to sleep now, if not......
Thinking like this, Rita's body was full of resentment again, and Ronald, who felt Rita's emotional change, twitched the corners of his mouth, a little speechless, and said that women's fickleness, sure enough, there was nothing wrong, this was fine just now, and now he changed his expression again.
"Ahem, in fact, the main reason for calling you here is ......" Against Rita's gaze that was almost about to become substance, Ronald coughed lightly directly, but fortunately he had seen all kinds of scenes in his identity, so he quickly adjusted, "What do you think of the old man before?" ”
"Old man?" The movement of holding the teapot paused slightly, and then Rita looked up at Ronald with a puzzled expression, "What old man?" ”
"Of course, the one I saw at the gate of the palace today." Rita's answer and reaction made Ronald's forehead suddenly full of black lines, it seems that the atmosphere between the two is quite good, right? Why is the expression of this person in front of me like I've never heard of before?
"Oh, you said that his name was Nehmiah Charles, I think he seemed to be the chief physician of some royal palace, right?" The frowning brow slowly relaxed, and after thinking for a moment, Rita finally turned over the memory of that time from her groggy head.
"That's right, it's him." Ronald nodded, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief, just remember, if you forget, it is estimated that things will be very troublesome after that.
"If it's that person...... Well, it feels pretty good, at least it's good at being a person. ”
"Pretty good at being a man......" Ronald twitched the corners of his mouth, his forehead was once again covered with black lines, this was the first time he had heard someone praise the old fellow, and it was still described in such a way that it didn't match at all.
"Or else?" Rita asked rhetorically, and then, after putting the teacup and teapot back on the table, she pointed her fingers and said, "Look...... Does he know who I am as a mercenary? In this way, not only did he not show any disdain, but he even gave me a bottle of wound medicine, I think you should know the value of this thing, right? ”
As she spoke, Rita didn't wait for Ronald to answer, so she took out the small glass bottle containing the pill from her arms, and after looking at it for a while, she threw it directly to the opposite side.
"What are you?" Looking at what was suddenly thrown into Rita's arms, Ronald frowned and was a little puzzled.
"Here you go, what else can you do?" Rita gave Ronald a direct look, as she should be, "And you called me here and talked to me so much, isn't it for this thing?" ”
"What do I want this thing for?" Rita's straightforward words made Ronald a little speechless, and at the same time casually threw the small glass bottle back, "Don't forget that this thing was given to you by someone else, isn't it a little bad for you to give it away?" ”
"What's the matter, since it's all given to me, it's mine, and it's my business how I deal with it, right?" Rita asked rhetorically, and then was about to stuff the small glass bottle back, but the right hand holding the thing just reached the collar and shook it again, "Really?" You know, I don't want this thing much. ”
Rita's meaningful words made the corners of Ronald's mouth twitch slightly, to be honest, he almost doubted that the muscles at the corners of his mouth would cramp if he continued like this, and how could he forget the perverted recovery ability of the girl in front of him, but even so, Ronald has no regrets, after all, he is telling the truth, he really doesn't need this thing.
"Don't worry, there are a lot of these things in this villa, you should keep them and use them later, maybe they will come in handy when they come."
"Well, since you've said so." Rita pursed her lips, and this time she didn't hesitate to plug the small glass bottle back.
"Alright, now please continue with what you just said." Rita said as she picked up the teapot again and poured a glass of water neatly.
"Actually, it's nothing, some time ago in the Erdakeya Mountains, in that valley, I heard from Aprile that Miss Sophia Edith likes medical books, and even mentioned to her that she wanted to enter the palace library once, so I ......"
"Why do you ask me about this kind of thing?" Ronald's hesitant voice made Rita frown a little dissatisfied, "Shouldn't you ask Sophia about this kind of thing?" ”
"You think I like to go around looking for you." Rolling his eyes a little speechlessly, in fact, Ronald was not surprised at all by the reaction of the person in front of him, "If it weren't for the fact that I was not familiar with Miss Edith...... Besides, even if I don't care about this for now, just talking to her about it suddenly might make her suspect that I have ulterior motives. ”
"Isn't it?" Rita asked rhetorically, and before she could say anything else, she saw Ronald's cheeks, which instantly darkened, "Ahem, sorry, I was just kidding." ”
Rita waved her hand and smiled, but there was no sincerity in her apologetic look.
