Chapter Seventy-Seven: Aftertaste
The night ended behind a colorful fireworks of magic.
After the show, the residents go home, buy or cook their own snacks, carry stools and sit in their yards with their families, or climb to the rooftops and wait for the fireworks show to begin.
There are also brothers and friends who hook up and wander the streets drunk, not knowing whether to go home or go to the next meeting place. For them, the wonderful fireworks that they rarely see once in a year are not as comfortable as a glass of wine.
Ellie yawned, but seriously, and read what she wanted to say to Linda to Su Wen, who took a pen and wrote it on the letterhead, and then folded the letter into the shape of a paper airplane, making Ellie sigh and throw it from the balcony high above the snow castle.
The paper airplane swirled in the air a few times in the wind, and then, like fireworks exploding in the air, disappeared with a scattered slag of light.
It also made Ellie stunned.
As for how the banquet ended, the two of them didn't have to worry about it anymore, it was a matter for their Snow Castle family.
Su Wen threw Ellie, who was already sleepy, back to her room, and then returned to her room, lying on the bed, but unable to sleep.
I don't know how many hours I was in a daze, Su Wen heard the door of his room, clicked, and opened.
There was a figure standing outside the door, and through the slanted moonlight outside the window, Su Wen saw the long golden hair of the comer.
“...... Marina?" Su Wen wasn't surprised by this, but she didn't expect her to come directly to his room at this time.
Marlena closed the door, put the key she had gotten out of nowhere, placed it on a nearby cabinet, and walked in.
“...... Su Wen, I'm ...... now What should I do......"
Ma Lina was wearing a nightgown, so Su Wen didn't know where to put her eyes, and finally had to look into her eyes, at this glance, Su Wen also saw that Ma Lina was not comfortable, and may even have cried.
Su Wen hurriedly got out of bed and casually put a piece of clothing hanging on a hanger for Marlena and draped it on her body, in addition to the reason of keeping warm, there was also a more important purpose of covering the faint curves under Marlena's nightgown.
"What's wrong?" Su Wen asked, pouring a glass of water for Marina.
After Ma Lina said thank you, she slowly stabilized her emotions and told Su Wen the results of the night's affairs.
The assassins of the Black Rope Society sent by Wentini directly killed her adoptive parents, and if it weren't for Su Wenzai, she wouldn't even be able to save her own life.
It can be said that Wentini is Marlena's bitter enemy.
But such a person is his current "family", and such a contradiction makes Marlena very painful. After learning the truth, Marlena almost broke down, but Wentini seemed to be even more devastated, crying and apologizing to Marlena, and even begging for death.
If an apology is useful, what else do you need the police to do?
During the time after arriving at the snow castle, Warrent introduced her to the snow castle almost every day, and Marlena had a sense of belonging to both people and things.
These family members, who used to be just a concept to her, have now become flesh-and-blood humans who appear in front of her eyes. To be honest, her impression of Wendini these days is not bad, and if she really takes revenge on Wendini, she can't do it.
But she had too many concerns.
Vivien saw this clearly and didn't interject too much, but her father, the Duke of Snow Castle, pleaded with Marlena for Wentiny.
That's what stings Marina the most.
Su Wen ...... Are you saying I shouldn't have come back?"
"Huh......" Su Wen thought for a while, and then said: "There is no perfect person in the world, everyone has their own shortcomings. You should know what your mother died for, right?"
Marlena nodded and said, "I was persecuted by those elders and finally committed suicide. ”
"Do you know how Warrent does it?"
He ...... Nothing was done. "Sent me to the south, and now she's bringing me back," Marlena said. ”
"When I was reading a book the other day, I saw your grandfather's diary. Although there is a lock on it, it is equivalent to nothing for Su Wen: "Although there are some subjective emotions, it is probably the closest to the truth." After having you, Warrent wanted to give up his title and elope with your mother, but was stopped by your mother. Later, when she was forced to leave the snow castle, she committed suicide and died......"
"In a way, your father was a weak man. Su Wen said: "Actually, you too." ”
was told by Su Wen, Marlena almost cried out wow, but her reason, which was several grades higher than Ellie's, still made her stabilize her emotions.
"A good heir is very important to Snow Castle, but a good duchess is just as important. In the eyes of outsiders, such results are the best. ”
"There is no happy ending, there are just compromises with a smile on one side's face. ”
For Wentini, it was a tragedy caused by the sudden magnification of the small evil in his heart. As for whether to forgive her, it's up to you, I can't really give any advice......"
Marlena is much smarter than Ellie, and she looks at things from a much more comprehensive perspective. But now she wants to take revenge first, or the overall situation of Snow Castle first, is something that even Su Wen can't be sure.
At this time, when she came to Su Wen's room, Marlena was more, and she still wanted to find someone to talk to.
But at this moment, a knock on the door interrupted the conversation between the two.
Marlena was flustered, holding the teacup in both hands, her eyes not knowing where to go.
Su Wen went to open the door normally, and the one who appeared outside the door was actually Balot.
"Mr. Su Wen......" Ballot pretended to be very calm and greeted, and it was obvious that she seemed to have practiced for this many times: "That, something...... Want to ask you...... Sister Marlena?!"
Barot almost bit her tongue, and at the same time, a question and a dozen brain supplements instantly appeared in her mind, causing a slight crimson on her face.
"Come in. Su Wen knew that Barot seemed to be crooked, but she didn't bother to explain, let her witness it herself, wouldn't she be able to clear up the misunderstanding?
"Ah?...... No, no, no, no, I ...... Actually, it's not a big deal. Ballot squeezed out a stiff smile, a little scrambled: "That...... Excuse me!!"
After saying that, he turned around and slipped away.
However, he was caught by Su Wen.
Barot was caught by Su Wen in the room and thrown into the seat next to Marina, while he sat on the edge of the bed, picked up the water glass, and took a few sips.
Perhaps feeling a little embarrassed, Barot first opened his mouth to explain, but he was a little worried about the relationship between Marlena and his father, so he couldn't sleep, so he just asked Su Wen to ask, and there was nothing else.
Marlena also followed Balot's topic and explained herself, it seems that she doesn't want to leave any misunderstandings in front of this sister.
After explaining clearly, the two of them finally breathed a sigh of relief. With a third person present, it becomes easier to enlighten, and since neither Marlena nor Barrot are Ellie, it's easy to get out of the dead circle. After chatting for nearly an hour, they both left Su Wen's room together.
However, Su Wen's sleep can probably be regarded as a soup.
