"How did you end up messing with that goblin!!"

As soon as she got into the carriage, Nicole immediately reprimanded.

Luo Di smiled bitterly: "I didn't provoke her, she came to provoke me!"

Nicole showed an expression of disbelief on her face, and sneered: "She?How many ministers under the skirt of Qiao Qiao in Yanjing, how many people she looks down on, even His Majesty the Emperor can't get her favor, she will take the initiative to provoke you?"

Luo Di was angry in his heart, and couldn't help but say: "It's not me who she provoked! Miss Nicole! She provoked your brother! You better go and ask your brother!!"

"What?"

"Your brother seems to have known her for a long time...... And...... Hmph!"

Nicole's face changed slightly, and she immediately began to ponder.

Seth and Jojo?

Why had he never heard of it? The original guards around Seth had never told him! Those two guys dared to hide such an important matter from themselves! It seemed that he had really done the right thing by driving them back to the army!

After taking a deep breath, Nicole said hatefully, "You are not allowed to talk about this matter again......! Punish you...... I haven't thought about punishing you yet!"

Luo Di pouted: "It's a punishment, anyway, it's not that it hasn't been punished!"

Nicole glared at Roddy.

Luo Di sighed, lowered his voice and said to himself: "What a good girl, she looks gentle in front of people, why do you make yourself so fierce in private......"

"What are you talking about!" Nicole's ears were pointed, and she heard it immediately.

Roddy quickly shut up, not daring to say anything, and slandered along the way.

Neither of them spoke all the way, and returned home in silence.

After getting out of the carriage, Nicole didn't say anything, and walked inside. Roddy couldn't get her orders, so he could only follow in a muffled voice. Before I knew it, I had followed Nicole to the quiet little building.

This is the family's forbidden area, and there are no servants with them. Nicole didn't speak, but walked in first. Roddy hesitated for a moment, and followed behind.

I thought that after entering the door, Nicole would explode in anger, but who would have thought that after entering the door, Nicole simply found a chair and sat down.

"Sit down, too. Nicole's voice was soft and seemed to be very depressed.

"You must think I'm fierce to you, right?" Seeing Roddy sit down, Nicole finally spoke.

"Isn't it?" said Roddy coldly: "Ever since I came here, I have been at your mercy! You have made me a ridiculous ear! You lied to me that I was seriously ill! You made me pretend to be your brother! I will do whatever you ask me to do!"

"But I also gave you a chance. As long as you complete this task of mine, I will arrange a good way out for you in the future, and your strength is already good, and I can arrange for you to join the army in the future. You know, with the power of our family, after you enter the army, you will definitely develop very well...... This is much better than being a civilian warrior and staying in Yanjing to do nothing, right? Although your strength is good, there are many people who are stronger than you in Yanjing, and most of them are not the same every day? Lucky, enter the army, be a small officer, or go to a nobleman's house as a guard. Unfortunately, to be a thug...... You know what?" said Nicole.

"But I don't like it now!" said Roddy dryly, "I know who I am, I'm a civilian. But I'm a person, not a tool! I like to be myself! I like to be Roddy, not your brother! I don't like to be a nobleman! I hate a nobleman!"

Roddy didn't notice that when he said the words "I hate aristocrats", Nicole's body shook.

Roddy continued: "When I was in the academy, the people around me respected me, they were not nobles, and I was not, but they respected me because I was better than them, my swordsmanship was better than theirs, my studies were better than theirs, and although I was ugly, I didn't feel inferior! ”

Unexpectedly, Nicole didn't get angry, just looked down and thought for a while, and sighed faintly. Her brow furrowed slightly, and the expression on her face was not at all as angry as usual, but ...... It's weak.

"I'm a girl...... Nicole opened softly, "I'm less than two years older than you." Generally in a family of our status, a girl of my age lives a carefree life. Chat with a few good friends every day, read a book, learn some music, flowers, or something else. It should be full of joy. In fact, a few years ago, when I was a little younger, my life was really happy......"

"But my father died. And I was born in this family, the 'Tulip Family' of the Empire...... I can't help it. The glory of the family cannot be destroyed, but my brother ...... He just couldn't understand that. I was forced to put down my books, I put down what I liked about the piano, I couldn't chat with my friends anymore, and I forced myself to take on what I didn't like...... I became the manager of the family, and I was annoyed by some of the things that annoyed me every day...... My father's subordinates, they are all looking at me, I know, they are all looking at the tulip flag, the prestige of the family cannot collapse! I don't like this either, just like you, I like to be Miss Nicole, not to be Nicole's housekeeper, Nicole's parent!"

As she spoke, Nicole's eyes turned red, and an uncomfortable expression appeared on her face.

Roddy's heart seemed to be pinched by the big hand that had been invisible, and he immediately remembered the scene he had seen in the stable that night. The girl in front of her, like the girl who cried in the stable that night holding her father's beloved horse, is a weak, helpless girl, she will also shed tears, she will be sad, she will be uncomfortable, and she will need help and support...... Even love.

Nicole sighed, slowly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said lightly: "Sometimes, I even think of marrying myself, perhaps, I can find a powerful family and marry myself." Through this kind of political marriage, find a strong and powerful foreign aid to help continue to support the family. But ......"

The tears that had just been wiped away came out again, and Nicole's voice sounded weak: "But I really can't do it...... I ......"

Roddy sighed, slowly stood up, and walked over. He stood beside Nicole and said softly, "These are not what you should have to bear, your brother!"

He ...... I really hated him a lot of the time, and he couldn't understand how heavy the burden of the family was. But I promised my father that I would not let the tulip flag fall...... But...... But I'm a girl after all......"

Nicole finally couldn't stop crying, looking at the girl's sobbing appearance, Roddy's heart welled up with an indescribable tenderness, he slowly stretched out his hand, gently stroked Nicole's hair, hoping to soothe the sadness in the girl's heart.

Nicole's body went limp, and her head rested lightly on Roddy's chest, but she cried even more.

In this secluded environment, the girl seems to have finally found support, and all the grievances that have been buried in her body and mind for a long time burst out......

With Roddy warm nephrite in her arms, a strange taste rose in her heart, and the hand that had gently stroked Nicole's hair couldn't help but slowly slide down her back.

He knelt down lightly, and slowly put his hands on Nicole's shoulders. I only felt that my hand was smooth and soft, but I remembered that Nicole was still wearing the off-the-shoulder dress at night.

Nicole was fluctuating in mood at this time, and she didn't care that there was anything wrong with Roddy's movements, but she felt that the person in front of her felt endlessly safe and reliable.

Looking at the pretty face in front of him, there were still a few tears on his face, like pear blossoms with rain, which was particularly delicate and moving. Looking at the soft lips that were only a stone's throw away, Roddy could no longer control the thoughts in his heart, and couldn't help but lean in to ......;
