Chapter 80: It's hard
"I didn't expect that this would be the pattern for my grandfather and Grandpa Snape to be alone. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" With her hands on the handrail of the stairs in the middle of the second floor, the knight girl looked at the various people downstairs, her eyes were full of smiles, and she said in a brisk voice: " According to my father, my grandfather was a very serious and orthodox aristocratic mage, and Grandpa Snape, although he has been kind to me over the years, but judging by his attitude towards others, he should also be a very strict and demanding merchant nobleman, but the facts I saw today completely subverted my imagination, their way of getting along is really unique, at the beginning, I was a little afraid of them quarrelling. ”
"Don't worry, don't worry about it. Pannis beckoned downstairs, and soon a waiter hurried up. Pannis took the two glasses of wine in the waiter's tray, handed Catherine a glass, leaned on the handrail of the stairs like Catherine, and said leisurely: "The closer the friends, the more casual they talk, and the more strange the address, so their way of getting along shows the trust and harmony between each other." ”
"Like you used to call Master Christo a little liar?" Catherine teased, "and Mr. Dilly little lion?"
"Nope. Pannis said with a serious face: "That's not a nickname, it's just to describe them with the essence after seeing the essence through their appearance." ”
"You're speaking ill of them behind your back again. The knight girl gave Pannis a charming look, and a few punches on his shoulder were punishments, and said with a smile: "But what you said is true, I still remember that a few years ago in the small town of Kanzil, when we first met, you always called us Miss Catherine, Miss Lina, and Miss Vivien, and you refused to change your words. ”
"Is there such a thing?" Pannis blinked and asked with an innocent expression, "Why don't I have any impression at all, you must be mistaken, Eun, yes, it must be so." ”
"Hmph, there's no use pretending to be stupid. Catherine's smile smacked of happiness, and the glass in her hand touched Pannis's with a pleasant sound. The girl took a sip of the dark red wine, turned her back against the railing, squinted her eyes and looked up at the ceiling above her head, and said softly: "They are right, time flies so fast, more than three years have passed, but now I close my eyes, as if I can still see what we looked like when we first met." Ha, I never imagined that our relationship would become the way it is now. ”
Pannis smiled faintly and did not speak, for him, no matter what he said now, it was meaningless, he just had to listen. Catherine didn't expect to hear what he said, and said to herself: "At that time, I only saw despair in you, despair that was more painful than death, and my only thought at that time was to save this desperate fool from the abyss and help him find his own salvation, and now, do you think you have real salvation?"
"Heh, do you still need to ask?" Pannis said with a soft gaze to the girl: "Of course I did, if you weren't by my side, always supporting and encouraging me, I'm afraid I would still be living in pain and regret now, and still mired in self-exile and unable to extricate myself, so naturally I wouldn't have the courage to face the past and the challenges of the future like now." ”
"But it's hard work. Catherine asked softly: "Although what we said soundly sounded and wanted you to get real salvation, in fact, it was a few of us who got salvation, and a few of us who were behind the scenes, so I feel very tired." ”
"Hahaha, how can I be tired, what do you think of me, I'm the perfect Kyle. Pannis said proudly: "What's more, it's you who really face the difficulties, I'm just lazy behind your back, it's very easy." ”
"Treat me like a fool again, huh? Catherine stared at Pannis with a smile and said, "At first, maybe we didn't know, but do you think we will still be so confused now? You are waiting in the back, not only will you gently push us at critical times, but also block all the pressure from the rear side for us, so that we can focus on facing the difficulties ahead, so that we can grow step by step, do you really think we can't see these things clearly until now?"
"Hehe, you're so smart, how can you not see clearly until now. Pannis shrugged and said, "It's true, though, that you won't feel tired, because that's what I'm supposed to do, and you deserve it." ”
"I don't think you owe us anything. Catherine shook her head and said, "I don't think we deserve anything." ”
"Because I have received the long-awaited salvation from you, in fact, from the very beginning, my subconscious has been desperate for redemption, and you have made me truly redeemed. Pannis said leisurely: "Don't say anything to get salvation is actually a few of you who say this, you have to pay, you must have gained, you have paid me sincerely, let me struggle out of despair, so on this basis I also get redemption, isn't it a matter of course? That's why I said, this is what I should do, and what you deserve. ”
"yes, we're family. Catherine stared at the remaining half glass of wine in her hand, the swaying liquid as if her heart was rippling in circles. The girl stared at the wine glass for a long time in a daze, before she raised her head and smiled: "You are right, we don't need to be grateful to each other anymore, because we care about each other and take care of each other, and think about each other for each other's sake, this is a matter of course, and this is what a family should do." ”
"Yes. Pannis nodded: "So there is no need to think about how hard I have worked in the past few years, I am paying, you are also paying, this kind of hard work is not hard, but a kind of fun, for you, for me, it is a kind of fun." ”
"Do you think it's fun, too?" said Catherine, whose smile faded, "but why are you so selfish, and why do you deprive us of the pleasure we deserve?"
