"Putting that aside, you should get me up, right?"

"Is it uncomfortable to have a pillow?"

"That's not the point."

"I understand, the concubine's body will return to its original posture."

"So, that's not the point."

Ling Yi felt powerless about Athena's deliberate act of pretending to be stupid, wasn't he a seriously injured patient? What's more, the kiss just now, as the old enemy of the god killer, Athena didn't understand the characteristics of the enemy, such as the physique that resisted a qiē magic, unless it directly worked in the body.

Athena was so clever that she immediately thought of kissing to help him recover, and didn't think about anything else at all.

The kisses were all kissed, although Ling Yi was not used to it, but he was also a big man, so he didn't pay much attention to it, anyway, he was in a good state now.

"Hey, Lefa, where are you?"

After breaking free from Athena's soft embrace, Ling Yi took out his mobile phone from his trouser pocket and called his servant.

There was a pause, followed by a cold voice.

"Ling Yi? I'm Alexander. Gascoigne. ”

The corners of Ling Yi's mouth curled, this was the first time they had formally communicated, although it was only in the form of a phone call.

"Oh, hello senior."

"Don't say polite words, I'm in the hotel where you used to stay, you can find a time to come over." By the way, I must state that I'm not here to trouble you, at least not for now, so that's it, hang up. ”

Listening to the busy sound on the mobile phone, Ling Yi was silent for a while. Shoved his phone back into his pocket, he just stood stunned, as if he couldn't believe how quickly Gascoigne had moved.

"Are we just leaving?"

Athena said suddenly.

Her voice was soft, but her words were clear, and each note was so precise that it was hard to pretend to be wrong.

"Is that necessary?"

"Otherwise, the concubine is curious about what you will do."

"It's done."

As soon as Athena's words fell, Ling Yi immediately replied.

Given the surprise answer, Athena looked stunned, but quickly turned back to her iceberg face.

"No wonder it disappeared for hours. The concubine doesn't ask you what to do. Sooner or later, we'll find out. But are you ready to heed the demands of the 'kidnappers' to send yourself to your door? ”

"Lefa is not there, Gascoigne probably wants to discuss cooperation, otherwise he is not so easy to talk with his strong character." Ling Yi could roughly guess what they were thinking, and he knew how threatening Typhon was to the whole of Britain. As long as Gascoigne wanted to stay in England, he had to deal with Typhon as much as he could.

Vauban is proud. Disdain to take the opportunity to fall into the ground. I wouldn't let go of a big prey like Typhon for the sake of old grudges.

With such an analysis, Ling Yi knew it in his heart.

It is also a few dozen minutes away from Boot Park to Gaosheng Street.

The neighborhood is still so deserted, and it is estimated that it will not be able to restore the shopping scene of the past in a few months.

Ling Yi walked into the suite. At a glance, I saw the old man who loved to dress up in a black suit.

Obviously British, he has a face that resembles an Asian, and his hair is also black.

Tall and tall, his outstanding temperament is unique even if he is thrown into the crowd.

"I've heard that you seldom notify your master of the visit in advance, so why am you so polite to me." When Ling Yi entered the living room, he didn't look at Gascoigne, he walked straight to the bar, pulled a chair and sat down, and poured himself a glass of juice.

"Sure enough, that woman often smeared me behind my back." Gascoigne didn't care so much, his arms were still on the back of the sofa, looking leisurely and relaxed, he couldn't tell that he and Ling Yi were meeting for the first time, but more like old friends who had known each other for decades.

If she hears this, the reaction must be interesting. But when did you find out that I teamed up with Alice? ”

That's right, the 'woman' they meant was Princess Alice, the former Speaker of the Council of the Magi.

"Before the Italian alliance completely locked down London, according to her nature, no matter who messed around in England, she would do her best to make trouble, but this time it was quieter than anyone else, and even my subordinates found it incredible."

How could Gascoigne not find out what was going on?

It's very simple logic, but to be able to keep such a clear mind under the pressure of every moment, this calmness is truly extraordinary.

"Do you feel betrayed?" Ling Yi regretted it as soon as he spoke, didn't give Gascoigne time to speak, chuckled and touched his chin: "Oops, I'm really embarrassed that I actually asked a stupid question." ”

Gascoigne raised an eyebrow, looking at him with some surprise.

"Why do you say that?"

"You know it in your own heart, we are the same kind of people."

Ling Yi shook the juice in his hand, the almost transparent liquid was not as clear and flawless as tequila, giving people a crystal clear visual sense, which looked particularly turbid,

The more innocent a person is, the more he has a heart that is unimaginable to ordinary people.

For better or for worse.

"I, Vauban and you, cooperate to solve Typhon, and the conditions are up to you."

Gascoigne was silent for a moment, then suddenly uttered something incomprehensible.

Why is it puzzling?

"You're not going to blackmail me with 'hostages'?" Ling Yi frowned and asked puzzledly, "Paul's niece and my woman are good bargaining chips." ”

"Yes, you're right. I had this intention at first, but just now I gave up, I don't care about reputation, it's just that I don't believe you'd leave your own woman and Paul's niece in the hotel and ignore it, and play missing by yourself. I don't know what trap you're planning to wait for me, but I won't be stupid enough to follow in your footsteps, because we're the same kind of people."

Hearing this, Ling Yi smiled.

Gascoigne has not lived in vain all these years.

With just a casual word, he instantly became alert.

Put aside unnecessary self-esteem and put on an open and honest negotiation posture. He was not going to engage in any conspiracy, because he knew a long time ago that the strategic strength of the two sides was not at the same level at all.

It's like Hannibal living in the 21st century.

However, they are good at different types, so Gascoigne doesn't feel inferior.

Can the Ministry of Defense and the special forces be superior?

"By the way, I have a question for you."

"Hey, I haven't mentioned my conditions yet, is it appropriate for you to do this?"

"You mention yours, I'll ask me."

"Then I refuse to answer."

"I'm in charge alone, and you can put forward two conditions. But only if you give me a satisfactory answer. ”

"Deal."

In fact. Ling Yi appreciated this refreshing style of acting.

But they can sit at the negotiating table. Most of them are guys who don't want to back down, so they have to waste their tongues. Because of this, every time a large number of large companies come to the school to recruit, he stays in his apartment and does not go out. The provincial one was sprayed with saliva, and he had to laugh and refuse. but not to offend.

"Where is the real Holy Grail?"

Really. Ling Yi guessed that Gascoigne would ask this.

"In the hands of Gnevia."

"And what you have?"

"A more delicate fake, barely able to be used as a genuine product."

Gascoigne's brow twitched a few times, in fact, he already knew it. It's nothing more than to be on the safe side, and the province wasted all its efforts to find trouble in Gnevia. But what I didn't expect was that the 'fake' in Ling Yi's hand could be compared to the real thing.

But this is someone's secret, and he doesn't bother to ask, anyway, he just needs to make sure where the real thing is.

"Alright, it's my turn. My first condition is Liliana. Clannical's ownership, though she is kept with me, is still nominally a knight of the Marquis de Vauban as you know what I mean. ”

Ling Yi drank the juice in the cup in one gulp, put it on the bar table with a click, and said coldly.

"It's as simple as that?"

"Hmph, if I tell Vauban to fuck off, do you think he'll agree? It's just that I want to make conditions, and I don't necessarily agree, I don't want to demolish you for such a simple word game. ”

"If you're just an ordinary person, you're going to be a very successful entrepreneur."

"I think so too."

"And what about one more condition?"

"For now. You have the right to refuse. ”

"No, I promised."

Gascoigne shook his head and got up from the couch to leave.

"We'll meet at the Millennium Center tomorrow morning and I'll send someone to pick you up. By the way, Miss Erica is waiting for you next door, saying that she has something to do with you, and besides, that girlfriend of yours seems to have some problems with her feelings, and I hope you don't miss out on this. ”

After he left, Ling Yi sat without saying a word for a while, then got up and left.

As soon as Ling Yi left, the door of a certain guest room opened.

“”

The girl bit her lower lip tightly, her eyes were red and swollen, and the tears she had endured for a long time finally burst the embankment.

When he returned from Ling Yi, the seal of power was unlocked.

She could come out of the room at any time, but she wanted to know what Ling Yi would do? Is it an apology? Or an angry question? No, that's not his style.

It should have turned around and left without saying a word.

It's clear, but why does my heart hurt so much?

Asukina covered her mouth and forced herself to whimper.

Ling Yi was not wrong, he saw through his 'private yu' very early, not only did he not refuse, but worked hard to cooperate, and tried to make himself happy.

Even though it's only been a month or two, I do feel happy.

But now, I am no longer qualified to accept this happiness.

"Am I really in love with him?"

Repeatedly asking oneself questions is like forcing oneself to recognize reality, like cutting one's heart with a knife, like a whip of guilt.

Despite this, Tomorrow Nai still had a trace of extravagant hope, extravagant hope that Ling Yi would hug her and comfort her softly, so that the relationship between them would be restored as before, but the moment Ling Yi turned around and left without hesitation, she completely woke up

"You still want to be shameless to be willing to give up, you have no chance to atone for your sins, you haven't had it before, and you won't have it in the future"

Asukina slowly slid to the ground with her back against the door frame, muttering to herself while pulling the corners of her mouth and laughing.

(Recently, I watched Korean entertainment, and I was abused so badly that my whole person was not good, hehehe) (to be continued......)
