Chapter 16 Choice
Seeing the door to the conference room close, Akali smiled and turned to look at Freya beside her.
"Hey, Freya, you don't have a crush on him, do you?"
Freya immediately glared at Akali.
"Aunt Akali, this joke is not funny at all. If your father hears about it, he'll be angry with you. ”
Akali shrugged, "I can't see it. No matter how much he likes you as a daughter, you will get married sooner or later. Look, you're in your twenties?"
"In a little while I will be twenty-four years old. Freya snorted softly. "Who said I was going to get married sooner or later, aren't you and Aunt Evita still married? ”
"The two of us are not like you, who makes the person we like not want to accept us. Akali smiled and reached out and touched Freya's head. "Freya, if the elder had accepted me, maybe I would have a daughter about your age by now. ”
Freya grinned, "That's between you, don't get me involved." If you want a daughter, I can be your daughter too. ”
"Well, Evita and I watched you grow up, and a lot of times we treated you like a daughter. Akali paused, retracting her smile. "Well, no kidding. Seriously, Freya, you're about to turn twenty-four, and you're almost at the age agreed with the Elder. Have you decided now?"
Freya immediately showed a distressed expression, frowned and thought for a moment, and slowly shook her head.
"I haven't figured it out yet. ”
"What? Still not interested in the Takeover Chamber of Commerce?"
"It's not right to say that I'm not interested at all. In the past two years, I have tried to get in touch with some business affairs of the Chamber of Commerce, and I have found that many things are quite interesting to deal with. But...... I always felt that it was a bit ...... to determine my future destiny so early Some are not reconciled. ”
"Unwilling to be bound?" Akali asked again. "I understand that. When I was younger, I longed for freedom more than you do now, and I was very unwilling to be confined to one place all the time. Later, after finding the cause of creating a magical communication network, which was willing to dedicate his life. It's the one who really settles down. ”
"It's not a bondage, is it? I just think...... My father always had to think about too many things in his life, and he was very tired, and I didn't like the way he looked. Freya said.
Akali let out a long sigh.
"Lord Grow, he does always need to think about a lot of things, this can't be helped, who made him the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. He carries the fate of countless people on his back, and his every move may determine the direction of the entire Sainz continent. So he had to think a little bit more and not make any mistakes. But you say he's too tired, and I don't agree. ”
"Isn't that tiring? There are so many messes to think about at any given time, and I get a headache just thinking about it. Freya pouted.
"He's used to it. Akali smiled softly. Or rather, that's what he had fun with. The Elder has always had a very great ideal, and this ideal was made very clear in the Bunta Declaration ten years ago. In the years since he founded the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, he has also been working towards this ideal. Freya, you may not understand it by now. When a person works hard for his ideals, he doesn't feel so tired. ”
"Really?" Freya looked at Akali in a daze, but her eyes didn't know where she had gone.
"Okay, you don't have to worry about it. Akali patted Freya on the shoulder. "I know the character of the elder very well, and although he wants you to take over the Chamber of Commerce, he definitely wants you to live the life you want to live. If you don't want to take over the Chamber of Commerce, he won't force you. You still have more than a year to think about it, think about it. ”
Freya's eyes rolled. Clapped his hands lightly, and said in a relaxed tone: "That's it." I still have a little more than a year to go. Besides, I don't have several younger siblings, and even if I don't want to, it's a big deal to let my father train him as a successor. Hey hey ......"
Akali couldn't help but reach out and tapped lightly on Freya's head, and reprimanded, "What nonsense, Lord Lord, but the moment you were born, he publicly declared that you were his only heir. I know what grows up. If you don't want to take over the Chamber of Commerce, then he won't let any of your younger siblings take over the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, so do you understand how important your choice is?"
Freya stuck out her tongue: "Aunt Akali, I thought you would comfort me, it turns out that you also taught me the same lesson as my mother." ”
"I just wish you had taken a little more time to figure it out. Although he should not care much about the growth of adults. But Steele probably still cares a lot. In addition, your choice is not only related to you alone, but even to the entire Xinfei Chamber of Commerce up and down nearly a million people. Don't look at me like that, your choice is so important, you don't have the qualifications to treat it casually. ”
Hearing Akali's tone become stern, Freya put away her mischievous playfulness, muttered for a moment, and nodded heavily.
"Okay, Aunt Akali, I'll think about it carefully. If I feel that I don't want to accept it after all, I will definitely make it clear to my father. I'm sure he will understand me and support me. And if I decide to accept it, then I will definitely make up my mind to take my responsibility well. ”
Akali sighed softly and touched Freya's head again, looking doting.
"You, although you may be the luckiest girl in the world in the eyes of many people, are also under tremendous pressure that no one can imagine. Fortunately, your father is the most enlightened father in the world, otherwise you probably wouldn't have been able to even have a happy childhood, and it would be impossible for you to maintain such a relaxed attitude towards life until now. So Freya, thank your father, whose greatness is not only reflected in the face of the whole world, but also in the little bit of life. ”
Freya held her head high, her eyes shining.
"Of course, my father is the greatest man in my heart, and no one can compare to him!"
"Steele can't be compared?"
Freya hesitated, but nodded firmly.
"Even my mother can't compare! Hmph, who made her stay away from home all the time......
Akali burst into laughter: "Even I can't defend Steele for this. She's busy with the Crescent Chamber of Commerce, and she does have less time to spend with you. ”
Speaking of this, Akali looked at Freya again and continued, "Actually, many times I suspect that it is because the image of the Elder is too tall in your mind that you have never had a boyfriend until now?"
Akali was just joking, but she didn't expect Freya to nod without hesitation, and snorted coldly: "Why do those ordinary boys make me look at them, they are all as annoying as flies, I won't like it." As he spoke, he glanced at Akali and asked, "Aunt Akali, aren't you the same?" because of your father, you don't want to accept other men. ”
Akali could only smile bitterly: "So both of us were harmed by the Elder?, but I can say that, but you can't, after all, you are his daughter." ”
Leaving the sentence behind, Akali stood up.
"Okay, I still have to arrange the overseas base, so I don't have time to chat with you here. Freya, think about what I just said, but don't expect me to give you any advice, the Elder has clearly warned us not to interfere with your decision. ”
With that, Akali walked straight out the door.
As soon as she opened the door to the conference room, she seemed to suddenly remember something, turned her head, and looked at Freya with a slight frown.
"I mean, can you get a different illusion skin? I understand that you had to disguise yourself as a teenager in order to blend in with those students, but you're too ugly, aren't you?"
Freya grinned, "You just have to be ugly to not attract attention." If I keep my original appearance, how can I get in?"
Akali thought for a moment and rolled her eyes.
"Well, you have a point. ”
As Akali left the conference room, Freya waved her hand, and a mirror of a water body with a faint blue light and an extremely smooth surface appeared in front of her.
Freya's face was unusually clear in the mirror, and Freya stared at herself in the mirror, looking left and right, and muttered, "Is it really ugly?" Of course, it's a little too young, and it doesn't match my age. ”
After looking at it for a while, Freya blinked, the magic in her body moved slightly, and from head to toe, there were faint fluctuations of colorful light all over her body.
Under the flickering light, Freya's whole body began to change little by little.
After a while, there was a complete change of person.
Now Freya is no longer the little girl who looks extremely ordinary just now, has no characteristics at all, and will not attract anyone's attention when she walks on the road, but has become an extremely beautiful girl with beautiful facial features, soft face, noble temperament but full of vitality, and her eyes are full of spirituality, and she looks about twenty years old.
Such a girl, no matter where she is placed, will inevitably immediately become the focus of everyone's attention, and she is like the ordinary girl just now.
Freya looked at the familiar face in the mirror, touched her face, and her face moved, revealing a somewhat unnatural smile.
The illusion skin obtained from Elder Lisanya is very useful for camouflage, but the disadvantage is that it cannot show expression perfectly, which is a very serious disadvantage.
"Looks like the next time I see Grandma Lisanya, I'm going to have to give her advice. ”
Freya rubbed her face and sorted out the expression on her face before walking out of the conference room. (To be continued......)
