Chapter 209: Now, it's part of the plan

"Green ....... Is it? ”

Kelina, whose brain was in a momentary shutdown, did not politely decline the stranger's offer at the first time.

It's not that she doesn't want to react, it's that she can't react.

Although her gaze was moving towards the Spirit Wood Necklace, after only a brief glance, her gaze fell on the Red Fox Necklace.

To be precise, it falls on the face of the person reflected in the red gemstone.

The young man was very handsome, even in Corina's eyes, but if it was just good-looking, at most he would only make the eldest lady pay a little attention, and not stare straight at it like now.

"His eyes are beautiful......."

The thought suddenly rose in Corina's mind.

It was a pair of amber eyes, pure without a trace of impurities, as if it were a natural perfection, and the beauty was not only there, but what made it more intoxicating was the depth of it.

Corina stared at it, feeling as if she was in the middle of a game that had been winning, and despite the uneasiness, she wanted to keep betting.

"Miss?"

A slight call brings Corina back to reality, as she also realizes her indecent behavior and awkwardly brushes her broken hair.

The waiter didn't realize that Corina was actually looking at someone else through the gem, but mistakenly thought that she had taken a fancy to the red fox gemstone necklace.

"Do you prefer this one?"

"Well....... "Corina shook her head, and was about to refuse, when a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind.

She looked to the side and asked, "Why do you think I should choose this?" ”

As soon as she spoke, she realized that something was wrong.

Her teacher had warned her many times not to talk to someone who did not match her status, otherwise it would easily cause all kinds of trouble; And another point is that you shouldn't have a lot of communication with strangers outside.

Now, not only did she take the initiative to inquire about the other party without knowing the identity of the other party, but she also followed the words given by the other party.

This kind of behavior of actively jumping into the other party's circle will definitely be severely criticized by the elders at home - of course, the person who made the mistake has to be her brother.

However, since I have said everything, I have to bite the bullet and eat the result.

Seeing that the other party seemed to want to speak, Corina was ready to ignore his words in the way of going in and out of the left ear, and then choose according to her own thoughts.

It's just that she seems to have forgotten that she doesn't seem to have any particularly firm ideas, and not being firm enough often means that she will go with the flow and change.

"I don't think it's hard to see why you should choose it." The young man's voice was soft and calm, "Gifts are often more important than meaning, and although the promotional label on the outside of this necklace may be exaggerated, when it becomes your gift, it is enough to make it a real thingβ€”especially when you hand it over to you, under your sincere gaze." ”

The young man's words stunned Corinna.

The other party's words seem to make a lot of sense.

At their level, this kind of gemstone necklace that can be purchased on the market in ordinary types, as long as you want, you can buy a full room, compared to things with meaning, it is indeed more concerning.

Compared with the blue necklace for beauty, the spirit wood necklace seems to be more worthy of treating injuries and prolonging life - prolonging life is similar to rejuvenating the face at some point.

The ladies are very careful about the maintenance of their appearance, and the most troublesome thing for them is how to maintain it.

From this point of view, it seems that it is indeed a spirit wood necklace that is more suitable.

But Corina soon realized a problem.

"Why do you think I'm a gift?"

Perhaps because the windows of the jewelry store were not closed, a hint of cold wind flashed in the girl's beautiful eyes, but the young man's body was still standing upright in the cold wind, and he did not bend at all.

"Although my eye is not as good as that of a professional connoisseur, I can also roughly see that the pair of earrings on your body alone is not comparable to the real value of the jewelry here." He shrugged, "You probably don't like everything here, do you?" ”

β€œ.......”

Corina subconsciously touched her ears.

There, a purple-gold diamond-shaped drop earring is glistening in the warm light of a jewelry store.

She had forgotten about it.

Because she went out shopping with the lady of the marquis's family, she naturally made the most adequate dress.

As the daughter of the Duke's family, her jewelry is naturally not too ordinary, it is too unusual, so even if she tries her best to choose a pair of the most uneye-catching earrings, its quality is by no means ordinary.

"An impeccable answer."

Corina thought silently to herself.

"So, are you going to pick this?" The clerk sent the question at the right time.

Corina hesitated for a moment, but finally pulled out her purse

There are too many gemstones for beauty and beauty, and the quality of this one is not particularly outstanding.

The smile on the waiter's face became more eager: "Then, I'll wrap it up for you." ”

"Wait a minute."

At this moment, the young man interrupted the waiter's movements again.

Corina tilted her head curiously to see what else he was going to do, but it turned out to be something she didn't expect.

"This, I want it."

The young man took out his purse, took out the amount of gold corresponding to the blue necklace and handed it to the clerk, and then before the two of them came back to their senses, he walked away with the necklace.

β€œ.......”

Corina suddenly came back to her senses.

This bastard pretended to fool her, it wasn't to keep her from stealing his target, right?!

Wait a minute!

Like, she came first?

β€œ.......”

Realizing that she had been tricked, Corina gritted her teeth angrily.

"Little, miss........" the waiter asked, curling his neck, "then, do you still have it?" ”

"Package." Corina spat out the word vigorously.

"Okay!"

The waiter scrambled around to make a package for her that at least looked good.

Carrying the gift box, Corina took a deep breath and exhaled all the stagnant breath in her abdomen.

When her brain suddenly returned to clarity, a trace of something wrong quietly flashed in her mind.

But the flash of light flashed so quickly that she couldn't catch it, even though the woman's keen sixth sense told her it was an emotional problem.

Shaking her head, she didn't delve any further, left the jewelry store, and returned the way she had come.

By this time the bard's performance had ended, and the people had returned to the uneven stone path, which was noisy and disturbed Corinna.

She quickened her pace, and in less time than she had come, she returned to the starting point.

Looking around to the left, she found the woman she was picking at the ready-to-wear store on the side.

Instead of going straight into the store, she stood on the side of the street, cautiously observing the woman.

Although it seems to be looking at clothes, the other party's mind is visibly restless, and his eyes are always looking out, as if he is looking for someone.

If outsiders look at it, they should think that she is looking for her daughter, because the worry in her eyes can't be hidden.

Corina's heart warmed.

There is no doubt that this woman is an extremely gentle woman, whether it is from the care she has taken care of these days, or from the way she has just seen her thoughts, or from the way she looks now.

"Miss Mira." She walked into the store and called softly.

Mira's gaze left the coat in front of her, and her face changed to a gentle smile: "You're back?" How does it feel? I heard there was a bard performing over there, did you see it? ”

"Look, it's not bad." Corina smiled softly, "Her voice is as fresh as the wind, it's nice, and there are surprises." ”

After a pause, she took out the gift box from her back: "Look, this is a gift from the distant wind." ”

"Huh?"

Mira took the gift box, opened it, looked at the gemstone necklace, and couldn't help but hide her lips, her beautiful eyes were full of surprise.

"It's supposed to be a little wisp of the wind that sent it, that's why it's so beautiful." She praised sincerely.

Corinna's face was slightly red: "It is said to help your beauty and age stop." ”

"Really?" The corners of Mira's forehead were wrinkled when she smiled.

She knew that it might just be a relief from the other party or a deception from publicity, but it didn't matter.

The contact in these days made her like this beautiful and smart girl who could talk, and she was not young but had no children, and the mother's love that had nowhere to put it naturally brought it passively.

How can a mother not be happy when she receives a gift from her child?

What's more, it's still a gift with such an excellent meaning.

She gently stroked the necklace and bowed slightly: "Thank you, thank you." ”

Corina shook her head: "Thanks to your care these days, it's just a small gift, and I can't afford to thank you like this - not to mention, it seems to have come a little late." ”

"No, it's not too late at all......."

Miss Mira pursed her lips and hesitated for a moment: "You, do you really want to see the master?" ”

I thought, of course.......

Corina almost didn't spit out her words.

Although she was embarrassed, her original purpose of approaching Mira and getting close to Mira was actually to break the deadlock through Mira, who was close to the Marquis, after the initial setback, so as to meet him.

Although everyone is getting along very well now, we can't help but admit that the purpose is not pure.

"Although .......," said Corina struggled, "I'm not ......."

She couldn't go on because she blushed at her hypocrisy.

In front of women, she felt that she was no longer a "qualified nobleman".

"I know, Corina." Mira stroked the girl's head and said softly, "I know your purpose, but it doesn't matter to me. I'm having a great time with you, you're as well-behaved and obedient as my imaginary daughter, so I have to do something for you. ”

"I ......"

"That bard sang well?" Mira suddenly changed her words, "How about inviting her to the manor to play?" ”

"I heard that she was a very beautiful girl, and men should like it, right?"

β€œ.......”

Corina could hear the stinging in Miss Mira's last words.

This can't be helped, the romance of the nobles is a characteristic that has been indelible in history, and the same is true for the marquis.

It doesn't matter to her, though.

"Thank you." The girl bowed sincerely.

Mira didn't say anything more, only hugged the girl tightly.

Under normal circumstances, ordinary people should not be cranky and enjoy this rare peace of mind, but at this moment, a strange thought suddenly flashed in Corina's heart.

"He did the right thing."

.......

"Young Master."

Six, who had taken off his disguise and put on a black robe, leaned on the window frame tiredly.

"I'm so tired." She complained, "It's really tiring, it's tired. ”

Lynn took her eyes off the "Starlight Ancient Noble Ceremony" and chuckled, "Are you tired of singing?" ”

"Nope." Six shook his head, "It's tired of laughing." ”

She's been used to hiding her expression under her hood for a long time, and now it's a bit hard for her to adapt to the audience, or more precisely to cater to the task.

"I'm tired of laughing, so let's take a break." Lynn lazily said a useless reassurance.

"You really don't care about your subordinates." No. 6 pursed his lips, didn't pay much attention to it in his heart, turned his head and asked curiously, "Young master, what I did, is it okay?" How's the quest progressing? ”

"You've done a very good job, as for the mission...... Because of your perfect performance, I don't think it's a big problem. ”

"So there's still a problem?"

"That's okay. We've done everything we can, and if we don't, we're going to abandon the plan and get another one. ”

β€œ.......”

"Alright." Lynn stood up with a smile, "You're tired from performing these days, so go back and rest." ”

"Okay."

Number Six answered, and was about to jump off the windowsill to go back to his room, when he was suddenly stopped by another shout.

"Wait a minute."

She turned her head, only to be dazzled by the azure of a necklace blooming.

Lynn tucked the necklace into her hand, and then clenched her fists in a daze, "Your mission reward." ”

"It's ....... I ......."

"Let's go back."

"Bang-"

The sound of the door closing did not wake Six, and she still stood in place, looking at the necklace in her hand in a daze.

After a long time, she touched the back of her head.

"Hey, hey."

.......

"What did she do before?"

After the sixth left, Lynn asked with a little curiosity: "Can you make up and change your appearance, can you change your personality according to your identity, and even can sing poetry, is you a theater actor?" ”

"I don't know." Number two's answer was full of words.

"Then forget it." Lynn shrugged, "When I brought this up, I thought she should not be very good at it, after all, the bard's singing needs to bring a certain amount of fanning and resonance, otherwise it will be difficult for the listener to bring it in, but I didn't expect that she is actually very good at this." ”

"I thought, if she can't, I'll be the only one."

"Would you still do this?"

"No, but I can learn." Lynn touched the mask he had changed out of and said leisurely, "Even if I don't learn so perfectly, there should be many people who will send me flowers." ”

And it's all women.

Number Two silently added in the heart of being stabbed.

But it's true.

For the sake of perfect disguise, Six's mask does not contain any magical materials, so there is no way to change the appearance at will, and can only be changed according to the original facial features of the pretender.

】

Under this limitation, the appearance of the pretender becomes the criterion for whether the mask looks good.

Lynn's condition is not bad, so after putting on the mask, he is still superior.

After a moment of silence, Second suddenly said, "You shouldn't get too close to her, rewards and the like just need words." ”

"Is it close?" Lynn touched her chin, "You misunderstood, I wasn't going to do this at first, but." ”

He pulled out a gilded envelope and chuckled.

"Now, it's part of the plan."
