Chapter 15: Distant Distances

After saying goodbye to Nerina, Philomena looked at Muse very seriously. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Well, although making friends with civilians was unthinkable to the former Muse, there is no doubt that it is not so surprising to the Muse, who has changed dramatically now.

Philomena really admired her adaptability, and before she knew it, she was used to this kind of thing. That being said, it's not a bad thing to learn about Muse's befriending process.

"It's always good to have a friend, at least when you go to work, I can have Peter talk to me. Muse said a little after Peter's story.

"That's true, but I'm afraid that man has thoughts about you. Philomena said seriously, this was not an unfounded conjecture, and as she left, she faintly saw a glimmer of heat in Peter's eyes.

"Honey, you must be overthinking, maybe he's just interested in the power of magicians. Muse tapped Philomena's forehead and said helplessly.

Ever since Wess came over, Philomena seemed to be suffering from paranoia of murder, and felt that anything would be dangerous to Muse, which was terrible.

In fact, it was not that Muse was unable to get out of bed, and he could barely walk around with the help of crutches. But Philomena spread flour under the bed, and if Muse got out of bed, Philomena would know, and... Something very troublesome will happen.

"It's better to be like thisβ€”" Philomena was still a little uneasy.

"Let's not talk about these things for a while, my dear, I'm hungry now, and you'd better hurry up and cook, or I'll have to go back to hell again. Hey, to be honest, Hell is no stranger to me anymore, maybe I can consider making a few friends in Hell so that maybe I can suffer less when I really die. ”

"Don't say such things, you can't die until you revive the glory of the Boel family. Philomena rolled her eyes, a little annoyed even though she knew Muse was joking.

"Be reasonable, now you are the rightful heir of the Boer family!" Muse said with a spread of his hands.

"No, I don't have the qualifications! Hearing this, Philomena hurried away like a frightened rabbit.

She was always like this, she felt small, and there was a big problem with this outlook on life, and Muse was trying to figure out a way to build Philomena's confidence. If abandoning the viscount position of the Boer family can make Philomena more confident, Muse will definitely not hesitate.

At this time, Nellina, who was walking on the street, was whistling and seemed to be in a happy mood.

"What kind of man is he?" asked the old man behind him.

Although they walked through the crowd, their voices seemed to be muffled by some strange force that others could not understand.

"Very gentle person, very good to me, of course, I mean this identity!" "There have always been too many people who have been good to Nellina, and it is not too much to say that they are lined up outside the city of St. George, but this is based on the premise of Nellina's beauty and excellence.

But after changing this identity, Nelina was treated like never before, terrible, abusive, sarcastic, white-eyed... Nothing good anyway.

Sadness flowed through my mind, slowly converging into a trace of inspiration, but there was still something missing. After seeing Muse, a clueless inspiration suddenly began to move forward, much to Nellina's surprise.

"I thought he was a difficult person to get along with, and I had planned to get on good terms with Lady Philomena and use her as a pedal to approach him. Unexpectedly, he welcomed me very warmly, and later, we became friends. Instead, it was the goal of the original plan... Madame Philomena looked at me with a look of hostility. Nellina's face was funny with tears and laughter.

"Maybe she sees through your purpose. The old man guessed.

"It's impossible, I've not met Lady Philomena much, but I can feel that she's definitely not a very intelligent person. Those who are very smart, with eyes as sharp as eagles, look at you and feel very uncomfortable. ”

"Really smart people look mediocre. The old man shook his head and sighed with nostalgia on his face.

"Perhaps, I trust my instincts. ”

......

After eating, Philomena handed the envelope to Musene, looking forward to it.

"Look at what is written here, it really deserves to be a literary association, and the material of this envelope seems to be very unusual. ”

No, in fact, the material of this envelope is really unusual, and it is second only to the level of the master of the Immortal Seat in the reply treatment of the Literary Association. For the two Muses, it is a huge fortune, if they sell the envelope, they can get ten gold coins, which means that for a year, Philomena can stay at home and stare at Muse... No, it's to take care of Muse, and not let him mess around.

Unfortunately, Philomena missed this opportunity.

"You've learned to read, just read it out for me, it's a test. ”

"Is it possible? this is a letter from the Literary Society!" said Philomena, sullenly.

"Of course, my dear, you are my most important relative, and from now on, you can use my things as you like. Muse said word for word.

"Iβ€”" Philomena's face was as rosy as a red apple, making you want to eat it in one bite.

Philomena didn't dare to look at Muse, lowered her head, and silently dismantled the envelope.

"Dear Monsieur Tagore, first of all congratulations on writing a great work, you have created a new genre, the whole literary world cheers for you, and you, as a creator, will have the right to name this emerging genre. On behalf of the entire Literary Society, I look forward to your next work, Nellina!" Philomena's faded flush rose again, but this time it was exciting,

"Muse, look, has this passed the review?" Philomena looked at Muse expectantly like a child who had received a hundred points, as if as long as Muse nodded his head, he would get the greatest appreciation.

"Maybe so. Muse smiled and nodded.

"Great, I knew you were going to pass the review!" Philomena hugged Muse excitedly, tears unconsciously dripping onto Musene's clothes, as if the Tagore on the envelope was hers.

He had known the news for a long time, and yes, how could Peter have bought his book if it hadn't passed the review.

"Wait, I will work hard, save enough money as soon as possible, and heal your injuries, maybe now I am the rightful heir of the Boer family, but in my heart, you will always be the master of this family. Philomena laughed and wept, and the joy in her eyes overflowed.

"I've decided that I'm going to change jobs, I'll have to go out in a moment, don't worry, I'll be back tomorrow morning. Philomena said again.

"Late out and early home... Philomena, can't go!" said as if Musene had thought of something, taking Philomena's hand despite her injured body, and said anxiously.

"For... Why?" Philomena was taken aback by Muse's sudden action, looking at the anxiety in Muse's eyes, she was a little puzzled, and then thought about what Muse had said just now, and suddenly realized something, her face was so red that she was about to drip blood, gritted her teeth, and stared at Muse viciously and said, "What are you thinking of something bad, what I want to do is the work of the night watchman." ”

"Uh... Even if it weren't!" Muse smirked, his gaze suddenly shifting to Philomena's hand, and his tone suddenly hardened.

"That's why, the night watchman is not a bad job. ”

"No, because we have the money. Muse took Philomena's hand and let go, took the card in the envelope by the way, and raised it in front of Philomena.

"What is this?'s identity card?" asked Philomena.

"No, this is a gold card, according to the rules of the gold bank, only a gold card can be applied for if the denomination reaches more than one hundred gold coins, if nothing else, there are at least one hundred gold coins in this card. Muse explained that fortunately, Muse's predecessor was a genuine aristocratic young master, and he also held a gold card, so he knew this knowledge.

"A hundred gold coins... Is this true, I'm not dreaming? "Philomena seemed to bite her tongue with excitement, and her words were intermittent and very cute.

"Of course I'm not dreaming, I've really worked hard for you these days. Muse took Philomena's hand and said distressedly.

Going out early and returning late every day, and taking care of yourself when you come back, what a burden for an eighteen-year-old girl, Musene has always felt sorry for Philomena, this family has always been supported by Philomena.

"It's time to redeem the jewelry that your father gave you, it's a very valuable thing. ”

"Finally have the money to heal your injuries, and you'll be suffocated in this room for months. ”

The two spoke almost at the same time, and when the voice fell, the two were tacitly stunned, came back to their senses, and laughed out loud together.

"We still have a lot of things to do, but the first thing is to heal your wounds first, which is very important. Philomena tried to keep a straight face, but she couldn't stop smiling.

"Maybe we can use a compromise solution, we go to the church to pray for blessings, and then go to the pawn shop to redeem your jewelry. ”

"Not a bad idea, I reluctantly agreed, but unfortunately it's late today, I really want to carry you to church at once, and see you standing in front of me in good health, isn't everything I do for this moment. Recalling the bits and pieces of these days, Philomena's tears flowed again, but the corners of her mouth kept smiling.

This day was the happiest day since Philomena was born.

Compared to Philomena's delight, Muse Ne was sullen and uneasy, as if hesitating, Philomena saw Muse's appearance, and her joy swept away most of it, Muse Ne was like a puppeteer controlling Philomena, and her every move could make her cry and laugh. Just as Philomena was about to ask something, Muse suddenly spoke, and made a solemn and serious declaration on her face.

"I swear that I will not let you suffer in the future, we will live in the best house and eat the most expensive food. If you like jewelry, I will ask the greatest craftsmen of the dwarves to make it for you. If you want to become a great Juggernaut, I will pave the way for you to move forward without hindrance. I will take everything you can to get everything you want, Lady Philomena, will you stay with me forever?"

Muse looked at Philomena nervously, like a criminal awaiting trial.

It was undoubtedly a life-time decision, and Muse had never been more serious, and the relationship between the two had become somewhat ambiguous in the past few months, though it was not specified. This is also the reason why Philomena did not dare to listen to Muse's sweet words, she was really afraid that she would be deeply trapped in Muse's tenderness.

Philomena cried and covered her face, shook her head as if with all her strength, and sobbed.

"It's... No, Muse, forgive me, I can't take it. You are the most important person in my life, my everything, but I am not worthy of you. To you, I am just a flower on your path, maybe you think it is beautiful, but in the future, you will definitely encounter better scenery. ”

With that, Philomena got up and ran back to her room, leaving Muse alone in the living room, looking at the figure who had left in a hurry, and Muse had a sad wry smile on her face.

"Is this the farthest distance?"
