Section 65 Strife

"Sister, you actually like him very much, right?"

"I didn't like him!"

"You're lying!"

Once again, the two men looked at each other. The twins' faces were so similar that when they looked at each other, it was as if they were seeing themselves in a mirror. Xingke stared at his sister's familiar and unfamiliar face. Once upon a time, she thought that the two sisters would always maintain such a harmonious and intimate relationship, but now everything is gone. Her gentle, obedient and somewhat shy sister seemed to have vanished, replaced by a strange soul. For the first time, she felt that she could not read her sister's thoughts, and for the first time she felt a little frightened.

"I just...... I want to protect you from harm. She said with some difficulty. Bitterness poured out from the depths of the throat and spread in the mouth. When did things change? Unconsciously, but also naturally.

"Sister, I've had enough of your protection!" Hoshimi shouted. "Why can't you see everything clearly? Do you remember Aunt Mary's words! Why do you ignore the facts, why can't you see what he has done for us? He is no longer who he used to be. He's now, he's the one who can be with us for the rest of our lives! Is it that important for me to spend the night with him, or are you actually jealous, sister?"

Hoshimi finished speaking in one breath and looked at his sister. Suddenly, she seemed to have lost any of it and rushed out of the room. The door was slammed shut, and the impact of the heavy wooden door and the door frame made the whole room seem to vibrate.

Xingke stared at the door of the room and did not move for a long time. But eventually, she let out a loud cry, grabbed something from her side, and threw it into the corner. That's actually a decorative vase. The sound of the vase shattering only aroused the annoyance and anger in Xingke's heart even more. She waved her hand and smashed the few bits and pieces she had at hand, whatever they were, all over the room.

By the time she had finished venting and was sitting in her room breathing, the door was pushed open again. This time it wasn't Hoshimi who came in, it was Ashrufat.

"What are you doing here?" asked Xingke coldly.

Ashrufat looked around at the messy room, then focused on Starcut.

"Hoshimi came looking for me just now. Ashrufat said. She said she had a fight with her sister. ”

Xingke glared angrily, if his gaze could kill, Ashrufat had already been dismembered by five horses at this moment.

"I don't know what happened to the road, but she was crying there......"

"It's for you bastard!"

"I bought the castle of the Knight of Dale yesterday. Ashrufat said. "As a birthday present for you...... I thought you'd like it, I thought both of you would like it. ”

"I pay more attention to my sister than that. Xingke said viciously.

"What ...... for?"

"You bastard!" said Starke. She grabbed something beside her—it was a wooden box—and threw it at Ashrufat.

Ashruphat turned his head to avoid the flying wooden box, and then he stepped forward, grappling the hand of the star carving. Xingke struggled hard. Ashrufat could now feel the force of the star carving very clearly. Xingke's struggle was so great that it didn't match her size at all, and in fact, even a strong man didn't have this level of strength. But her strength did not surpass that of Ashrufat.

Ashrufat pushed her down on the bed and lay there on her back. He grabbed Xingke's hand tightly with his own hand, holding her under his body, making it impossible for her to break free.

"Am I really, annoying you like that?" said Ashruphat softly.

"That's right!" Xingke said.

"I did something wrong. Ashrufat looked her in the eye. "Maybe it's because of this that fate punished me and made me lose my memory. But now I'm not the one I used to be. Now I really want to take responsibility for my past mistakes......"

"She had never quarreled with me in the past. Xingke said. "She never quarreled with me except when she was a kid fighting over dolls. Whatever it is, as long as I make a decision, she will definitely accept it...... From the moment I realized that I was the only one left, I was determined to be stronger, strong enough to protect her......"

"It is a man's duty to protect his wife and children. Ashruphat stared into Star's eyes and said. "I'll protect her...... I'll protect you too. You're not just two anymore...... Now there's one more me. ”

Starmark tried to break free again, but it was still to no avail. Ashrufat's arm strength was quite superior, and she couldn't get out of it.

"Let go of me!"

"Can't you give me a chance to prove myself?"

Xingke looked at him, but didn't answer.

"Am I really so untrustworthy?" Ashrufat asked. "If that's the case, then what are you doing ......?"

"I didn't do anything, I just had to do it. Xingke replied slowly.

Ashrufat slowly let go of his hand, and he regained his original expression. "I'm sorry. He apologized softly and straightened up. "I shouldn't have done this to you. ”

Xingke also slowly stood up and tidied up his messy clothes and hair.

"That castle is a lovely new home anyway. Ashrufat said. "If you're going to do magical research, it's much better there. ”

Xingke didn't speak. She neither endorsed nor objected.

Ashrufat turned around and left, and after a short while, he returned with his cleaning tools and began to sort out the garbage in his room. In his rage, Hoshiki had thrown several things, several of them porcelain and glassware - of course, now there was no place to go but the garbage heap.

"Didn't you sleep well last night?" he asked, cleaning up the trash. He seemed to have forgotten what had just happened, and smiled softly as usual.

"I didn't sleep. Xingke replied, still wary. "I thought you would come back when you went. ”

"Don't worry, it's been a long time since there have been robbers here. And there's me. Ashruphat replied with a smile. "I'm not an ordinary person. By the way, how do you work out? I don't seem to see any place to work out. ”

"My workout style is different from the average person. Xingke replied.

"Is this a jewelry box?" Ashruphat picked up the box from the ground that he had been dodging before. It was a wooden box, quaint and fragrant. However, as he looked at the box, Starmark snatched it from his hand.

"Don't touch it. Xingke said.

"Oh, okay. Ashrufat shrugged indifferently and continued to clean up the garbage. While he was doing this, Xing Ke just sat quietly on the edge of the bed, neither looking at him nor doing anything else, but it didn't look like a contemplation, but a simple daze.

Ashrufat quickly sorted out all the broken garbage and planned to take it with him.

"If you can, pack up a bit. Ashrufat said. "Knight Dale had left all the daily necessities in his castle, so he didn't need to carry anything other than clothing and personal belongings. ”

Starke didn't speak, and it wasn't until Ashrufat stepped out of the door that she suddenly spoke.

"I want to ask you, are you angry about anything?"

"Because, of course," Ashrufat stopped, and there was really no displeasure in his voice. "You're beautiful. Men are always very tolerant and patient with beautiful women. Especially fiancées. ”

Xingke glared angrily at Aerufat, but because Aerufat did not look back at this time, he was in a state with his back to her, so her fierce gaze was completely in vain.

"One more thing. Hoshi saw that she regretted arguing with you. Ashruphat whispered the last sentence, and his figure vanished from the doorway.

......

The Dale family's castle has long been regarded as one of the best dwellings in the Brassian area. Both the exterior and interior of the castle are impeccable. If there is anything wrong with it, it is that this castle is actually not big, especially the living part of the castle owner is not very large, so it cannot accommodate a large family.

The entire castle is made of stone, and legend has it that the foundation of the castle was made by dwarven craftsmen. However, after the decoration and renovation of successive owners, the castle can no longer show the dwarven architectural style. It has a large enough living room, enough guest rooms, a wine cellar, an underground secret room, a study, and so on. In short, everything a squire nobleman needs, it has all, and it all looks exquisite. In particular, the castle's baths stand out. There is a boiler room on the outside of the castle living area, where water is heated after a fire is lit and automatically piped into the baths in the castle. This makes bathing straightforwardly a high-end treat. Even the high-class bathhouses in the city were no more than that—of course, before that, the two sisters had only seen and imagined, but had never tried it.

But now she finally has a chance. Xingke immersed his body in the warm water and exhaled slowly. It's a great feeling to be immersed in the water, as if all your worries have disappeared at once.
