It was late when he returned to the merchant, and Tika was lighting candles and mending his clothes. When he saw El enter the door, he immediately jumped out of bed and trotted all the way into his arms.

"Did you miss me?" asked El, pinching the little girl's face.

"Yes!" Tika said without hesitation, hugging El's waist tightly and looking up at El with a twinkle in her eyes. El didn't let go until he kissed her heavily on the cheek.

"See what I bought you?" El put the bag he was carrying into Tika's arms.

"Wow, it's an apple! The little girl opened the bag on her behalf, complaining on her lips, but her eyes were full of happy joy. She took out an apple, wiped it vigorously and handed it to El's mouth. After watching El take the first bite, he put it to his mouth and bit it gently.

"It's so sweet. The little girl smirked.

"Take out the leftover apples and put them in a cool place, they will easily spoil when you put them in a bag. El said quietly. He turned to sit down in his chair and pretended to be nonchalant, secretly observing Tika's movements. He hid the jewelry box at the bottom of the bag, wanting to surprise her.

The little girl obediently took out the apples and laid them out, but suddenly her body stiffened, and it seemed that she had found a treasure. She ran back to El with her jewelry box in hand, a happy smirk on her face.

"Open it and take a look. El said. Tika sat down in his arms, took a deep breath, and carefully opened the jewelry box. A delicate ring sparkles in a red flannel.

"It's too valuable...... If you take it out, someone will rob you. Tika said, but his little head rubbed against El's chest, and the smile on his face couldn't be contained.

"If I don't bring it, I'm afraid people will be snatched away. El took Tika's hand and put the ring on her. The two looked at each other and smiled, and Tika looked up and kissed El on the lips.

It was another happy night, and the girl's body was hot and sweet, which made El immerse himself in the gentle country and could not extricate himself.

When I woke up in the morning, the sleeping girl in her arms still had tears in the corners of her eyes, and her bare smooth shoulders still bore the marks of last night's madness. El was satisfied but also a little distressed, such a shameless life continued, and if he did not control himself, he was afraid that he would be squeezed dry.

When he went downstairs for breakfast, El noticed that his eyes were full of strangeness, and he had long been blind to the envy and jealousy of the young mercenaries, but today his instincts still felt that something was wrong.

"Hey, boss, the boss is looking for you. Kevin sat down beside him with a pot of potatoes and said cheerfully. Although he was eating in his mouth, he could still tell that he was holding back a smile. El looked at George who was sitting across from him suspiciously, and the little white face turned out to be strange, and his eyes were erratic.

"What's going on?" El asked, grimacing. The two men shook their heads desperately, indicating that they knew nothing.

Hurriedly filling his stomach, El tiptoed out of the living room and looked carefully. The old merchant really had a guest, and he was the one he was familiar with.

The orange-red haired suspected VIP girl Luo Lana was sitting on the sofa, holding a cup of black tea in her hand, looking at the cramped old businessman opposite with a smile.

"Why don't you study well in the academy, what are you doing when you come back?" asked Jupiter in a cold voice with a calm face.

"Students are free to allocate the period before the final exams, and as honor students, there will naturally be special treatment on the part of the college. Lolana didn't pay attention to the old merchant's attitude, and blew lightly on the foam on the tea, and said softly.

"You don't have to worry about the caravan, just focus on your studies. ”

"Actually, I was just going out to finish my dissertation and come home to visit my father. Luo Lana sighed: "I didn't expect you to suffer such a big accident, father. ”

"You don't have to worry about it!" Jupiter touched his head and exclaimed irritably: "Your father, I haven't experienced any storms and waves over the years?

"Indeed, it is not difficult to solve the current problem with your ability, father, and I have no intention of intervening. Lolana quietly took a sip of her tea, with a very polite but meaningful smile on her face.

"As far as I know, it's mainly a matter of money right now, and if it's really hard to turn around, use the dowry you've saved for me. ”

The corners of the old businessman's mouth twitched, and a drop of cold sweat suddenly flowed from his bare head.

"Although you once made a vow to your deceased mother, but now you are in trouble, and if it is only for a short turnover, the deceased mother will be considerate of you. ”

"This ...... Lorana, actually, ......" Jupiter laughed dryly, sweating like rain.

Because there was a young man who seemed to be very reliable at the time, I gritted my teeth and took your dowry to pay off the debt! What's more, El didn't accept it, and found a girl to roll the sheets that night to show his intentions.

The girl's tone seemed to be thinking about her father, but looking at her smiling eyes, she knew that this was actually a question. I don't know how she learned about it, but to tell the truth, the old businessman felt that he might not be able to raise his head in front of his daughter again.

Jupiter coughed nervously, didn't dare to make eye contact with Lolana, turned his head and saw El standing outside the living room, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he hurriedly beckoned: "El, come here, I'll introduce you, this is my daughter Lorana." ”

Eldi walked over and bowed slightly to the old merchant: "Boss...... Miss?"

The girl turned her head to look at him, and saw the inquiring meaning in his eyes, and a faint smile appeared on her face.

This is the precious daughter that the old businessman wants to introduce to himself? The smart and virtuous young lady in Kevin George's mouth? The genius granddaughter that Master Powell loves?

Although the girl sat on the sofa with her legs together, holding a teacup in her hand and smiling, like a standard lady, in El eyes, this little girl was clearly a mischievous little devil.

Not to mention that she hid her identity yesterday and deceived herself with that so-called VIP card. Just then, El was convinced that she was playing tricks on her father.

Poor Jupiter's old face was suffocated red, and she had to change the topic with a smiling face.

"El is a partner in our family and now helps me in the firm. Don't look at his age, he has a good ability. Lolana, you're going to call him brother, you know!" the old merchant laughed as he patted El on the shoulder.

"First meeting, Brother El, Ludern is with you. Lolana stood up, lifted the corners of her skirt with both hands and bowed her head, with an innocent and innocent expression on her face, as if she really didn't remember yesterday's events.

"Good morning, miss. El returned the salute quietly, since the girl pretended not to know, he naturally did not need to expose it, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. In fact, he had been suspicious yesterday, but in the end he could not connect the image of Jupiter's bald round face with the delicate girl of a doll. It seems that Lolana is very lucky to have completely inherited her mother's appearance.

Perhaps it was because El had been staring for too long, and a shallow flush appeared on the girl's fair cheeks. Her gaze circled between the old merchant and El, as if she had realized something.

"Lorana, how many days are you going to stay this time?" When Jupiter saw El, he suddenly remembered what was going on, and couldn't help but turn pale: "You may not know that Bart has been released from prison." ”

"Bart?Black Hand Bart?" Lorana raised her eyebrows in surprise, "He's been here?"

"I told you not to provoke that kind of person!" Jupiter rubbed his head and said angrily, "It's too dangerous for you to run out now, I'll let El accompany you, and go back to the academy as soon as you're done." At least I don't have to worry about your safety in the academy. ”

Looking at the girl's expression, it was obvious that she did not take Bart to heart, but under the pressure of the old businessman's solemnity, she did not rebelly raise objections.

"Brother El, I'm going to trouble you. ”

After the old merchant left, Lolana folded her hands and smiled at El as she spoke.

"Miss Lorana, I think you should listen to your boss. El Zhengse said to her, "I fought with Bart, and that kind of person may suffer a loss for underestimating you, but he will definitely learn his lesson and take revenge like crazy." Although I don't know about the grudge between you, as a lady you shouldn't deal with that kind of person either. ”

"Stripped of my ornate shell, I'm just a merchant's daughter. Lolana shook her head and sighed helplessly: "But I still want to thank you for not exposing me on the spot." If my father knew about my plans, he would have tied me up and sent me back to the academy. ”

"That's not a good idea. Er touched his chin and nodded, "Girls should be protected, and it's better for men to do the things that show up." ”

"Machismo. Lolana huffed, pointing to El's nose.

Looking at El disappreciatively, the girl's eyes rolled, and the corners of her mouth showed cute tiger teeth again. She leaned over to El and whispered, "Do you want to do that business yesterday?"

"To Redstone Ridge?" El shook his head, "It's more dangerous outside the city, I'm afraid I won't be able to protect your safety." ”

"Coward. Lolana snorted disdainfully: "Don't worry about my safety, if you don't even dare to go outside the city, you're afraid you won't be able to deal with Bart's chimpanzee, right?"

El pursed his lips, he knew that the girl was deliberately provoking, and it would be effective to change it to a hot-blooded young man like Kevin. But in his opinion, there is food and drink in the trading house, and there is a girl to warm the bed at night, is there a happier life than this? Or listen to the boss's words, and send this nonsense eldest lady back to the academy is the right choice.
