Chapter 966: Harvest Festival
Apitt, the pawn chosen by Lin Chao, is making a difficult choice.
As an older bachelor, Abet has just embarked on the uphill slope of life, full of anticipation to receive the magical inheritance, and in the blink of an eye, he is fascinated by Kate, a waiter at the Watch Fort Tavern.
He appeared at Fort Watch claiming to be a taxi driver in Hohenheim, who now has a car and a house, and left a month ago to go on a road trip.
Apitt goes to the tavern every night and has evolved to the point where she and Kate exchange messages, and the next step is to go on a date.
He also knows who brought about the changes now, and it is all Master Lu. If it weren't for Master Lu, he would still be driving a truck, he still had no self-confidence, and he didn't have a plan for life, he just wanted to live one day at a time.
Every day he was thinking about how to talk to Master Lu, but when it was time to really speak, he was still very nervous.
"Master, please forgive me for being distracted. I would love to receive the inheritance and do what you tell me to do, but I don't know if you will allow me...... I have a lover, I'm really sorry, I like her a lot. β
Apitt was worried that the sect would not allow believers to marry, but he did not expect to hear such words.
"There is nothing wrong with liking a person, God loves all beings, and love is divided into big love and small love, but the nature is not different, they are all willing to give and sacrifice for others. You don't need to suppress yourself, no one has to give up love, family and friendship, that's what beasts do. opposite
I think that feelings are the driving force, and like sadness, anger, and pity, they can form strength and make people stronger. β
He couldn't help but moisten his eyes, Master Lu was really Master Lu, a thoughtful person, a person who had detached himself from low-level interests, he was really ashamed.
The streets are bustling with activity, and in celebration of the harvest festival, the usually quiet and depressed Watch Fort brings out the best state of the year, for the present and for the future.
Abeit can't wait to find Kate, who is with her family, and tell her the news.
He thought of a rhetoric, "I'm so happy today, my boss said he would give me a promotion and a raise." β
Kate noticed his eyes at a glance, a little red and swollen, and asked, "It's so nice, I can see that you are very excited, so let's invite you to celebrate the holiday as a guest of my house." β
The inhabitants of Fort Watch are very welcoming to visitors, especially during the harvest festival, when the more guests they invite, the better they will be.
Of course, Apitt did not refuse, and this was a good opportunity to get close to Ketra.
Lin Chao in the distance withdrew his gaze from them, and in his opinion, Kate looked mediocre, and even lost points in dress, only from the appearance of Abbitt's fiancΓ©e Zhuoya.
Of course, Lin Lan has seen many beautiful women, and there are also those who have captivated the country and the city, such as Shi Qianyi, Hua Qing, Song Qianmei, and even Diana of the Aum Organization Fuha City Branch is also heroic, and it is difficult to meet the appearance that makes his eyes shine.
In addition, mutants can change their appearance, and he is even more indifferent to things that ordinary people are obsessed with such as facial features and skin.
But where can there be such a thing as love, maybe Abet's obsession with Kate is not necessarily because of her appearance but her personality, at least she can make him laugh.
Abitt didn't know that Master Lu was nearby, and he was still sincerely happy.
A brown-haired young man came over, and Kate, who was very affectionate, leaned against him and said with a nonchalant face, "Who is this, Cousin Kate." β
His actions also make Abett very unhappy, and although it sounds like Kate's cousin, the man's instincts tell her that it is a rival in love.
Apitt quickly thought about it, decided to be polite, and held out his hand with a smile.
"Hello, I'm Apitt, Kate's friend. β
The cousin didn't reach out, leaving his hand awkwardly grounded in the air.
"I don't think you should invite everyone, especially outsiders from unknown sources, and in my experience, most of them will cause trouble. β
Kate smiled regretfully at Abet, her distant cousin was Charlie, an officer in the mayor's office.
Although they are cousins and brothers, they are no longer related by blood, and Charlie is also her suitor like Abet.
She didn't like Charlie very much, he always showed a contempt for civilian life, and he didn't have a good impression of the Watchport, but only regarded it as a place of excess.
Her parents really hope that she can be with Charlie, after all, she is a person from a government agency, and if she has such a son-in-law, she will have the confidence to speak in front of her neighbors.
She rounded the stage and said, "Don't say that about Charlie, Apitt is indeed my friend, and the old custom tells us that friends from all walks of life should be welcomed on holidays." β
"That's why I say that not all customs should be preserved, especially ...... that are not adapted to modern society."
Charlie didn't take Apitt seriously at all, and opened his mouth to gush, as if Apitt was a rat that everyone shouted at.
Apitt also felt embarrassed, but when she looked at Kate, her heart softened, not only soft, but almost melted. No matter how much unpleasantness happens, as long as Kate's smile is worth it.
When Apitt and Kate went to the side to chat, Charlie's lungs were about to explode, it was incredible, it was clear that he was a promising civil servant and destined to become an excellent young man who was destined to become a city government administrator, how could he be compared to a wild boy who appeared for a few days.
The harvest festival is celebrated for several days, and even at night, it is more lively and jubilant than during the day.
There are large bonfires in the town, and the largest one is where the young people of the town gather.
After the mayor's brief speech, the campfire became the stage for performances, and people constantly volunteered to sing and dance, and the young people who performed well were especially favored, and perhaps received chestnuts from the girls.
At the harvest festival at Fort Watch, if an unmarried girl gives a young man fried chestnuts, it means that she has taken a fancy to the young man. If it's raw, it means he's doing well.
Instead of grabbing a handful of chestnuts from a pocket, they are placed in a small cloth bag. Whether the chestnuts are ripe or not, only the lad who receives it knows.
So it became a fun game, some people received many bags of chestnuts, maybe all of them raw, and some people only received one bag, maybe from a beautiful girl.
Apitt, Kate, and Charlie were also watching the show outside the campfire.
Seeing that two girls went up to deliver chestnuts, Charlie said: "Abett has come from afar, he should go up to perform, maybe he can receive a lot of chestnuts." β
Apitt hurriedly waved his hand, he used to be an ordinary office worker, driving a truck back and forth between the city and Blackpool Town, singing and dancing, not telling jokes and magic.
Kate was infected by the atmosphere and said excitedly, "Okay, okay, you should all go to the show." β
Charlie immediately agreed, and he had planned to go to the show.
Abet's scalp was numb, and he didn't dare to ask Master Lu for help, so he asked, "Is it okay to tell a story?"
Kate smiled: "Of course you can, but you must speak well, otherwise you won't be able to receive my chestnuts." β
