Chapter 016: Departure
"It hurts, doesn't it?" the girl said softly, as her slender fingers slid lightly over the red marks on Leah's face, and a look of distress flashed in her eyes.
Leah was touched by the girl, her heartbeat was a little faster, and she also felt a little aggrieved, she hummed softly, and couldn't help leaning into the girl's arms, I don't know why, this look will make her feel at ease.
The girl didn't say anything more, only to see that her hands were covered with a faint blue light, and her hand swept over Leah's cheek again, this time Leah felt a coolness on her face, and the hot pain before suddenly weakened a lot.
"Is it strange why I should give him money?"
The girl suddenly asked an irrelevant question, and gently touched Leah's soft little face, and Leah was blushing and heartbeat by this intimate act, and couldn't help shrinking her body, and the girl saw her reaction, and the smile on the corner of her mouth became brighter and brighter.
"Thirty gold coins is nothing to me, but it can save his life and, most importantly, further clear my grudges and add a crazy enemy to the Orlim family. Don't underestimate the power of hatred, hatred is the best catalyst for making a person stronger, and I'm curious now what that person will become in the future. ā
"But......" Leah was still a little puzzled.
"Do you want to say that the person who cut off his arm is me? This is just the thinking of ordinary people, you must know that he and I are already not weak spirit masters, I have strong strength, strong enough to kill him in one move, but I didn't do that, I just gave him a painful lesson, this is the grace of not killing, so that although Locke will have some resentment in his heart, but he will not show it, and until he has the strength to fight with me, he should not come to me for trouble. But after all, this leaves some hidden dangers......"
At this, the girl suddenly showed a disdainful smile.
"But the Olim lady's straw bale abandoned him, you can't imagine how desperate a servant can be when he is abandoned by his master, they have been instilled with the belief that they have to give everything for their master, and that straw bale is equivalent to crushing this belief with his own hands, I think that Locke has probably fallen into complete despair just now. ā
The girl's smile suddenly softened, but Leah, who was in her arms, shivered, and she clearly felt that the girl's body exuded an aura that made her afraid, and at this moment, the girl seemed to have a pair of horns on her head.
"When he was at his most desperate, I ordered him to be saved, so that I would be the light that pulled him out of the abyss, and his resentment towards me would naturally disappear, but a person's emotions would not disappear so easily, so this resentment would be transferred to the straw bale. ā
Leah didn't expect the girl to think of so many things, and she couldn't help but feel a chill on her body, and at this time she suddenly realized one thing, such a black-bellied girl, there should be no reason to save a stranger, but she just saved Leah, then, she probably has some intentions.
"Are you wondering if I was trying to save you?"
The girl suddenly said Leah's thoughts at this time, and she was suddenly startled by the other party's words.
"Don't look at me like that, I don't have the ability to read minds, but it's not difficult to come to such a conclusion based on the current environment. So, you might as well guess why I want to save you?"
"Want me to guess?"
Leah didn't expect the girl to come to such a sentence, and suddenly fell into a stupor, but the girl who saw her appearance smiled and didn't say anything, but the light in her eyes became softer and softer.
"But ......"
Leah couldn't think of anything at all for a while, the girl's family power is obviously stronger than the Violet family, after all, the Violet family is now in decline, and her strength is also very strong, judging from the situation just now, the girl should not be short of money.
Seeing Leah's headache, the girl couldn't help but chuckle: "Okay, I won't tease you, in fact, the reason why I rescued you is very simple, I appreciate the character you showed when you bought dragon meat with Agni just now, I don't want such an interesting little guy to be defiled by that kind of guy, so I can't help but take action." ā
"Huh, that's it?"
Leah was stunned suddenly, she thought about many possibilities, and even considered whether the girl would be eyeing her family's saint-level spiritual skills, but in the end, the reason why she came to the rescue was so simple, it was really speechless.
"That's right, that's it, you look so cute!"
The girl couldn't help but hug Leah tightly, because in this way, Leah's face suddenly leaned against her soft chest, feeling the warm and soft touch, Leah's little face suddenly turned red, and at the same time began to get hot.
"I grew up in a somewhat complicated environment, and it's not convenient to tell you the details, I grew up in that environment, I had to wear a mask at all times and hide my true self, so when I see a frank person like you, I always have a sense of yearning, plus you are so cute, like a doll, so I naturally won't stand by and watch. The girl put her arms around Leah and looked up at the blue sky slightly, the light in her eyes was a little sad, but this sadness was quickly hidden by the girl.
"I didn't expect you to look so innocent and cute, but you didn't show weakness at all when you quarreled. ā
"IāI'm just being forced to be anxious, she's talking about my family like that, how can I endure it any longer. ā
"Well, I appreciate the importance of family. ā
"Hmm...... Big sister, can you tell me your name?" Leah hesitated for a moment, but finally said what she expected.
"Name...... I can't tell you the name now, do you want to know why?" the girl suddenly showed a very mysterious expression.
"Is there something inconvenient?"
The reason, of course, is ...... I want to play a trick on you!"
When Leah heard this reason, she was completely stunned, her little mouth opened wide, and she looked at the girl holding her in a daze.
"Haha, that's it, your expression is exactly the same as I imagined!" The girl laughed happily, and then she suddenly let go of Leah, and jumped on the roof next to her, and said to Leah below, "Okay, I should go too, you don't have to be too sad, I think we should meet soon, and when we meet next time, I will definitely tell you my name." ā
After the girl finished speaking, she jumped a few times and left the place.
Leah just stood on the ground and watched the girl's departing back, I don't know why I suddenly felt a little empty, when she closed her eyes, the girl's gentle smile would appear in front of her, obviously only separated for a while, but Leah suddenly missed the feeling of being hugged by the girl.
It was the first time Leah felt like she was being hugged, and it was such a reassuring thing.
When Leah turned her head to look around again, she found that the fire was nowhere to be seen, and even the barbecue stall on the side didn't know what had been put away.
The girl and the fire were as if they had never existed here, but the warm feeling on Leah's body and the blood on the ground reminded Leah that everything that had happened before was real.
"Badass...... I had to be so curious when I left...... Hmph......"
Leah snorted disapprerovingly, but she had a happy smile on her face.
