123 [Trial 2] Trust your instincts, even if the target is a woman? (3)

"Alex Kent."

Edmund looked at the teenager in front of him with a serious face, "Are you sure?" ”

The azure eyes were not the usual restrained indifference and laziness, but extremely determined, and Alex subconsciously straightened up, "I'm sure, Uncle Edmund." ”

"I will not choose to leave with you and accept the care of the other elders in the Guild."

"I'm going to find the truth on my own and contribute to your cause."

"Even if you don't care about what your parents did when they died?" "You have to know how much they wanted you to be safe, and you were sure you wanted to live up to their expectations?" ”

Alex's throat was a little dry, and his chest was stuffy, but his voice was as calm as before, "I know they spent the last of their energy to keep me hiding my identity so that I could escape. But—"

"I don't want them to die in vain!" Alex pursed the corners of his lips tightly, "My identity is the best thing to hide, and I can go back to find the truth." And, isn't that the best option? "Uncle Edmund, I know you've been making slow progress over the years, it's too difficult, and you don't have a chance to go there—but I'm just right." ”

"If I don't try it once, will you be willing?"

Edmund looked at him with exhaustion and sadness in his eyes, and sighed for a long time, "We just don't want you to be like your parents—"

"Uncle Edmund, believe me, I won't let you down, and I won't let my parents down."

Alex had a light smile on his lips, and his clear eyes didn't seem to be covered by any haze.

The door slammed open.

The middle-aged man with a scruffy beard in the room is hugging (?) tightly The delicate aristocratic lady, the light of the round window shone in, so that she could easily see the wetness in the man's eyes, and the girl's full of dependence.

“…… Wow. An Ning Ning was stunned for a moment, and then he was very cooperative and exclaimed in surprise.

And at this moment, the aristocratic lady who heard her voice suddenly broke free from the arms of the middle-aged man, her face was crimson, looking like the shame of being discovered, and she glared fiercely at the girl in the riding suit with a pair of watery eyes, "Wood, what are you doing?!" ”

An Ning Ning didn't speak.

She just looked at her, and then behind her, and then behind her, and then behind her.

And then.

"Excuse me."

She said calmly, taking a step back, ready to close the door.

"Come back! Wood! "Alex is going crazy. He could have guessed exactly what this woman was thinking!

"What's wrong?" A head poked out from behind the door, and his face looked innocently puzzled, "Do you need my help in any way?" ”

"Wood." Alex took a deep breath and smiled, "Things aren't what you see. In fact - "they are saying goodbye!" This is a hug full of the warmth of the elders!

But before he could say anything, Edmund, who had no idea what was going on between the two, stepped forward and put his hand on Alex's shoulder with a big grin - yes, the conversation just now made him forget the fact that Alex was a girl in the eyes of outsiders.

"You're friends, aren't you?" He seemed to remember that Alec had just called the girl Wood.

Edmund's smile suddenly became more loving and friendly, and under the bright smile, he seemed to be completely unaware of Alex's awkward struggle, and at this moment, An Ningning's eyes became vigilant, and he looked at this man suspiciously.

Although Alex is a hypocritical and nasty girl, she can ...... She should still believe that she has the dignity of a noble lady.

So, the situation is......

An Ning Ning suddenly realized, and she was still a little afraid in her heart.

Thinking that David was waiting for her on a horse not far away, she made up her mind, since she had a solid backing, what else was she worried about?

Go!

So, in the next second, under Alex's suddenly widening eyes and the stiffness of Edmund's smile, An Ningning, who strode forward, put the man down with an over-the-shoulder fall.

The blonde girl opened her lips slightly, her always deep and charming face became a little dull, she couldn't speak for a long time, and her fingers trembled and pointed at her, "You, you ......"

An Ning Ning clapped her hands, glanced at the man on the ground in a very good mood, and then at the stupid appearance of the blonde girl, the corners of her mouth curled, and she closed her fingers with both hands in a rare good mood, and patted the back of her hand gently, "No thanks!" ”

Alex opened his mouth to say something, and subconsciously put his hands behind his back. He may not realize that he looks extremely dazed at this moment, and even An Ningning, who has always been aimed at her, is much less hostile at this time.

"I'll take him to the judge, don't worry, I won't reveal anything about you." I have to say that she looked at the blonde girl's clear eyes full of confusion, and she kind of understood the spontaneous desire to protect that group of boys.

It's just annoying or nasty.

She was about to stop greeting her, and directly bent down to pick up the man, but found that the man was rubbing the back of his head and standing up?!

"It seems that this Miss Wood really cares about you." No one expected that the first thing he said after standing up was this, and he looked at Alex with a look of relief.

"No, she always laughs at me." Alex clawed his head in frustration.

And at this time, An Ning Ning understood that the two of them obviously knew each other even if she realized it later.

She pursed her lips, a little upset.

"Hello, Miss Wood. I'm a bard, and as unbelievable as it sounds, I'm friends with Alex, and I'm saying goodbye to her as I happen to be leaving. Edmund, who sensed the girl's feelings, explained with a gentle smile, "But seriously, Miss Wood, you have a lot of strength. ”

"Thanks, if that's a genuine compliment." She said.

"Of course." Edmund laughed and said, "I hope that in the future, Miss Wood can still use her own strength to help more people." ”

"But—the friendship of the bard and the noble lady, I'm afraid the world doesn't really believe it, especially like mine." He smiled and narrowed his eyes, "I sincerely hope that Miss Wood can keep what she saw today a secret, and not let me ...... What bad remarks did Alex bring. ”

“…… I will. She pursed her lips with some whims.

"I haven't been out for so long, has something happened?" A slightly hoarse voice characteristic of the voice-changing period came from behind.

Alex touched his throat in silence.

"It's okay, I found it, I can go back." An Ning Ning said and walked out first.

Although David was a little puzzled by the scene in the room, he only replied and turned away without much curiosity.

Edmund watched all this quietly, smiled wilfully, and said to the blonde boy next to him, who had also not left.

"I would be relieved if you could move forward with them in the future. Alec. "Hundred Platings" Fast Wear No Peace Claw Book House The latest chapter is free to read for the first time.
