Chapter 87 [Advice]
Chen Daolin walked out of the reception room, and there were servants waiting outside the door, with a very respectful attitude, leading Chen Daolin to leave.
As soon as he walked out of the corridor, Chen Daolin suddenly felt a sudden change in his heart, and a strange feeling appeared in his heart. He instinctively looked up to the right and immediately saw a bunch of eyes.
As soon as Chen Daolin touched his eyes, he felt as if he was shocked!
What a bunch of eyes!
Cold, indifferent, as if there was a faint sense of danger! Just like...
This man's eyes were like a blade unsheathed, but it was shot on a person like this, as if it could make people feel the coldness and stern edge of the blade!
There is no doubt that being stared at by such eyes is extremely uncomfortable. Chen Daolin has only felt this bleak look in his heart so far. That is the descendant of the orc's wolf clan royal family, Lei!
But it is obvious that the sharp and cold look of this person's eyes are even more stunning than thunder, more uncomfortable and more sharp!
Just as this look came, Chen Daolin seemed to feel that his skin exposed to the other person's eyes had a thin layer of goose bumps, as if his hair was standing up!
This feeling is like in the cold winter, when a gust of cold wind suddenly blew into my clothes!
Although this was just a moment of feeling, Chen Daolin suddenly felt shocked, and then his instinctively, his whole body's mental power was instantly stimulated to its peak state.
He widened his eyes and stared at the master with this bunch of eyes!
What imprinted into my eyes was a slender man.
A large black robe covered the body, and the leather armor lined under the robe could be seen.
This man's figure is at least one head taller than Chen Daolin, with wide shoulders and a belt tied around his waist, which outlines the outline of a body-building figure with wide shoulders and narrow waist.
His appearance should be very handsome, but he is clearly angular and has no creaminess at all, but instead emits a faint evil spirit!
Yes, it's evil spirit!
This person was standing there, unarmed, but it seemed like a sharp sword unsheathed in front of you!
The most eye-catching one is undoubtedly his long golden hair and his dazzling blonde hair as bright as the sun.
But the gold that happened to this man did not bring him a trace of sunshine, and the cold and evil aura on his face made people dare not look directly at him.
This person has a pair of slightly slender eyebrows and eyes, but the waves of eyes make people shudder.
His eyes seemed to just swept through Chen Daoli very casually. When he swept over, he stayed for a moment, then moved away gently, with a cold look.
Chen Daolin noticed that behind this man was a man who looked like a manager from the Liszt family. The manager lowered his head and bowed his head, with a very respectful attitude. Standing next to this man, he didn't even dare to speak out.
Chen Daolin then walked over quickly, but heard a vague sound from behind him.
"God, please..."
Gothic?
Chen Daolin's heart moved. This is the person Miss Lodell wants to meet.
This person's aura and temperament made Chen Daolin very uncomfortable.
...
When they returned to their residence, Kaman and Rodriguez IV were there too.
Seeing Chen Daolin coming back with the waiter of the Liszt family, the two guys hurriedly came up to meet him.
Fatty Kaman was a little cunning and could still hold back, but Rodriguez IV was already full of anxiety and shouted loudly when he said to him: "Darling, have you been invited by Miss Lodell?"
Chen Daolin looked at the two guys with anxious expressions and strange eyes. He couldn't help but smile and nodded, "Yes."
"She, how could she summon you suddenly?" Rodriguez IV asked hurriedly: "She doesn't recognize you, and we heard..."
Kaman suddenly kicked him lightly, then glared at Rodriguez IV, interrupting him, but the fat man smiled and said, "Darling, don't you say you don't recognize the people of the Liszt family at all? Why did Lodell call you to meet alone? She refused any guests' requests this day, even the two of us..."
Chen Daolin smiled, looked at the fat man, coughed, and said, "You two, what I said before is true. I really don't know anyone from the Liszt family. This time I came here to be entrusted by an elder to deliver something. Well... As for why Miss Lodell wanted to see me, I'm sorry, this is my private matter, and it's about privacy, but I can't tell you two."
After a pause, he looked at the ugly faces of the two guys and then smiled slowly, "But I couldn't really meet Miss Lodell. When I went there, in the living room, Miss Lodell put down the curtain and talked to me through the curtain. She only talked a few words, but was interrupted before she even reached the point."
He deliberately looked at the faces of the two people and said slowly: "It seems like a guy named 'Goth'..."
"Goth!!" Rodriguez IV's face suddenly changed and she screamed in surprise.
Kaman's face was also ashen, and he gritted his teeth hard and snorted heavily.
"Do you two know this person?" Chen Daolin asked.
"..." Kaman glanced at Rodriguez IV and said lightly: "This guy...hum, it's okay if you don't talk about him. Just an annoying bastard."
Chen Daolin looked at the performance of these two people, with fearful expressions, and the things they said along the way, he had guessed a few points in his heart. Without saying it out loud, he nodded to them and went back to his room to rest.
Although Kaman and Rodriguez IV wanted to ask something, they couldn't speak. Seeing Chen Daolin going back to the room, Kaman suddenly said: "No, that guy Goth is here, I can't sit here! I can't see that bastard approaching Lodell! Luo Xiaodog, do you dare to go with me to see it!"
Rodriguez IV snorted: "What's there to dare!"
The two rushed out in a hurry.
Chen Daolin returned to his suite, and Barossa was talking to Xia Xia. When the elf girl saw Chen Daolin coming back, she showed a sweet smile on her face: "You're back so soon?"
"Oh." Chen Daolin sighed: "I was interrupted before the matter was finished. It seems that I still have to wait for the evening." He looked at Barossa and frowned: "But tonight..."
"Well, I won't go with you for the evening party." Barossa sighed, with a little disappointed face.
It was a bit embarrassing for Barossa to wear a dress to attend a banquet.
The ladies' evening dress is too thin. If an elf girl wears that kind of clothes, her wings will naturally be exposed. It is always a bit dangerous to expose the identity of an elf in the human world. Although this is the Lister family, she is afraid that she will be targeted by bad people.
"We are still too weak now. When we become stronger in the future, we don't have to hide our heads and tails anymore." Chen Daolin comforted: "As soon as the matter is over, we will leave here."
"It's best to leave early." Barossa frowned and said, "I always feel a little worried. I feel very depressed in this place, which makes me feel very uncomfortable."
"If it goes well, maybe I can leave tomorrow." Chen Daolin smiled.
He talked to Barossa for a while, remembering that it was okay during the day, so why not go to the garden to catch the autumn wind and see if there is any cheaper to pick up. He received a lot of goods last night.
The Liszt family is rich and powerful. They are planted in the garden without anyone taking care of them. I am afraid that this opportunity will not be available in this village. If you don’t seize the opportunity, you will never have such a good thing to take advantage of in vain after leaving here.
Thinking of this, two girls were left in the room, and Chen Daolin quietly ran to the garden alone.
During the day, the garden is not as secluded as at night. After walking around for a while, you can always see servants coming and going. Although these servants did not stop Chen Daolin from wandering around, and his behavior was very respectful, Chen Daolin could not pick plants in front of others.
After walking for a long time, I gained very little.
I couldn't help but go further and naturally, I walked to the place where I met the little maid last night.
I walked around a wall of shrubs and trees, walked in through the small gap, and arrived at the riverside.
Chen Daolin took a break here for a while, as if he had some premonition, and there was a faint expectation in his heart.
Sure enough, when it was noon, Chen Daolin was about to leave, he suddenly heard a rustling sound from the bushes behind him. A familiar thin figure came into the gap. Chen Daolin looked over and couldn't help but smile.
The little girl crawled in with difficulty last night, carrying a small basket in one hand and struggling to open the bushes with the other.
Chen Daolin walked over with a smile, helped her to push the bushes away, grabbed her wrist, pulled her in, and said with a smile: "Do you always like to sneak so much? You don't have a way to go, but you like to drill into the bushes?"
The little girl was held by Chen Daolin's wrist, and a hint of redness seemed to flash across her little face. She then broke free from Chen Daolin's hand, snorted, and said in a sharp and crisp voice: "I'm not a guest like you. If I am a little maid running around, I will be scolded if I am seen by the manager."
Chen Daolin smiled and looked at the basket in her hand... It was clearly a food basket, the lid was crooked, revealing the food inside. He glanced at the little girl: "Have you stole something again?"
"Do you care?" The girl gave Chen Daolin a blank look, walked to the river, put down the basket, took out a small flower cloth to spread it on the ground, and put out the food inside.
She was busy for a while and turned around and glared at Chen Daolin: "Are you just watching and not helping?"
Chen Daolin laughed and walked over.
There is actually a small barbecue grill in this basket. Chen Daolin smiled and said, "Do you like barbecue so much?"
"You have to care!" The girl hummed a few times and put the barbecue rack.
The garden is full of bushes, so there is no shortage of materials for burning fire. I picked up some branches and came back, and Chen Daolin made a fire with a fireball technique.
Among the food brought by the girl, there were actually several pairs of wings of some kind of bird, which surprised Chen Daolin.
"Haha, I'm the best at baking wings."
He took the initiative to take on the job of fiddling with barbecue. The girl didn't fight for it, so she just sat aside and watched Chen Daolin's busy work quietly.
"Hey, thank you for the morning's work." Chen Daolin said casually while using a barbecue fork to penetrate the chicken wings: "You asked your lady to meet me, right?"
"I don't have to thank you." The girl curled her lips: "You can't finish anyway."
"Anyway, I want to thank you." Chen Daolin rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "You don't know that I'm here, so you brought food to me specifically, right?"
"Hmph, this is my territory." The girl glared at him: "How come you, why did you come here again in broad daylight?"
As she said that, she looked at Chen Daolin carefully, and finally saw the grass juice stained on Chen Daolin's hands and sleeves. Suddenly her eyes lit up and clapped herbs and shouted, "Ah! I understand! You... you guy ran to the garden to pick herbs secretly, right?!"
"..." Chen Daolin didn't expect to be seen through by this girl. His old face turned red, but he said with a thorn in his mouth: "What are you talking nonsense."
"I'm not talking nonsense!" The girl laughed and stared at Chen Daolin's eyes, saying, "There are a lot of magic plants planted in our Liszt's garden! People don't know anything about goods, so no one takes care of you... You are a magician. It seems that you came to the garden to pick herbs while no one is paying attention! Humph, don't lie to me, the grass juice on your sleeve has not been washed away!"
"..." Chen Daolin was silent for a while, looked at the girl, and smiled bitterly: "I said, you won't report me, are you? Anyway, you are just a little maid, and the flowers and plants in the garden are not your property, so what do you care about doing? Well, if I don't report you to steal food, don't report me to pick herbs, we'll be even, how about it?"
The girl had a strange expression and looked at Chen Daolin. Although she was smiling secretly in her stomach, she pretended to be thinking and hesitant on her face. After thinking about it, she nodded and said, "Okay!"
The wings were quickly baked for two pairs. Chen Daolin took out a bottle of soy sauce and brushed them evenly on the wings with a brush, and the fragrance suddenly swelled.
The girl kept raising her nose, her eyes wider and wider. She looked at Chen Daolin with a curious look on her face: "You...what are you doing this? Isn't this the kind of seasoning I used last night, right?"
"Well, no. This thing is called soy sauce, it's... Well, it's even my other secret recipe." Chen Daolin smiled vaguely and handed over a wing: "Try it."
The girl took it and took a bite, and immediately smiled: "It's delicious!"
She took several bites of force, and quickly ate one wing, then suddenly sighed and whispered: "What a pity, if that guy meets such a delicious thing, he will definitely not be able to walk even if he encounters it."
"What?" Chen Daolin glanced at him.
"I... a friend of mine." A trace of gloom flashed across the girl's face, and she sighed quietly: "Hey, I have a friend who always likes to make some weird foods. He has always been very greedy and can always get a lot of delicious foods that I have never tasted before. Well, the seasonings for the barbecue you made last night, and the ones you made today, and the stuff called... soy sauce. If he encounters them, he will be overjoyed."
Chen Daolin looked at the girl's eyes and suddenly felt aroused in his heart: "Huh? You came here last night... Could it be that I had made an appointment with the friend you mentioned to meet?"
"He..." The girl suddenly lowered her head, threw the bones in her hand hard to the ground, and stepped hard: "He is a bastard! He agreed to see me! The result... he..."
"He broke the appointment?" Chen Daolin sighed: "It's indeed not a good habit to release pigeons."
"Release pigeons? What does that mean?" The girl stared at Chen Daolin with wide eyes.
"Uh... it means breaking the appointment, the local dialect in my hometown." Chen Daolin told him casually, for fear that the girl would continue to ask questions, so he quickly said, "The person you are talking about...haha, I guess it is your little lover, right?"
"I..." The girl's face turned red, and a hint of shyness flashed in her eyes, but she immediately said with a stern face: "No! Don't talk nonsense!"
"Hahaha! So what if it is, why hide it?" Chen Daolin smiled and said, "I won't report you. Well, to be honest, is that person also from your Liszt family? Is he a guard? Or a servant? Or a servant? The manager? The chef?"
"Not all!" the girl shouted with her eyes and stared hard, then quickly lowered her voice and frowned: "Don't ask so many questions! Anyway, anyway..."
"Huh?" Chen Daolin said curiously: "Is it...ah, I understand. He must be different from yours, right? You are the lady's close servant. Is he... a person with a high status?"
"..." The girl was stunned and looked at Chen Daolin, her eyes becoming more complicated: "You..."
She suddenly sighed quietly: "You are a nonsense and guessing very accurately. Yes, he is indeed a bit special."
"Is it... a noble young master? or a rich young master?" Chen Daolin frowned and said, "You are such a cute little maid, don't be fooled by those guys."
"Hmph, the person who wants to lie to me hasn't been born yet." The girl rolled her eyes.
Then she pulled up a piece of grass, put it in her mouth and bit it, and then vented it hard, her tone was a little irritable: "Anyway... he, he originally agreed to come to see me last night, but... he was just lying to me!! He didn't come this time, and I have been waiting for him to see me this time! I can't go out normally, so I was looking forward to him coming to see me. I knew he was greedy and liked to eat, so I prepared a lot of delicious food. I also specially asked the chef I invited at home for a lot of things. I originally wanted to give him a surprise, but..."
Speaking of this, the girl suddenly lowered her head, her eyes turned red, and a few tears came out: "He liar! He didn't come at all, he didn't come at all!!"
Chen Daolin saw the girl crying, and for a moment he was at a loss. After watching a while, he carefully handed over a handkerchief and smiled bitterly: "That... I'm not good at coaxing girls, you, don't cry, okay?"
The girl took the handkerchief and took a look, but threw it back to Chen Daolin, and choked and said, "Who wants to use your handkerchief! It's so dirty that I don't use other people's things."
She raised the back of her hand and wiped her tears hard, staring at Chen Daolin: "You are not allowed to say something about me crying, otherwise, otherwise I will kill you!"
"Okay." Chen Daolin smiled and didn't take his heart. Looking at the girl's resentful eyes, he couldn't help but say curiously: "Who is the 'friend' you are talking about? You...and him?"
"He..." The girl's eyes were blurred and she sighed softly: "He is a very amazing person. He knows everything, knows many, many fun and interesting things, and he will make me a lot of delicious food. Moreover, I don't have to follow those rules in front of him. Alas, he himself is also a person who doesn't like to follow the rules. I..."
"Can't you be with him... beside him?" Chen Daolin grabbed his hair: "You are the person around Miss Lodell. Your ladies must be spoiled you very much, right? If you beg her, maybe you can fulfill your wish..."
"It's useless!" The girl's face darkened, her expression was complicated, and she was silent for a few seconds before shook her head and said, "Impossible! He... He... He has a different identity and will never marry me! Even if he doesn't abide by the rules, he will never be with me! He, his elders will never agree... In short, this matter is very complicated! You don't understand!"
(It seems that he is really a noble and rich young master...) Chen Daolin sighed in his heart.
He determined that the girl in front of him was a maid, and probably decided that this must be another clichéd love story about a maid falling in love with a rich family.
Chen Daolin thought about it, but didn't know how to explain it. He thought for a moment, took out a small bottle, handed it to the girl, and said, "Here, there is soy sauce in it. I don't have much left in my hand. I have soy sauce left. I'll give it to you. Next time you meet your friend and make it for him to eat, you will definitely please him. Alas... Little girl, that's all I can help you."
"...Thank you." The girl took the soy sauce bottle in surprise, glanced at it, and said curiously: "This glass bottle is very exquisite."
Chen Daolin smiled.
This glass bottle is not original, but a bottle or jar he bought in Freeport in this world, so he is not afraid of any news.
In fact, he was very careful. He tore off the packaging of things that sold into this world, including shampoos and other things, and put them in white bottles without any words or marks. "That... are you okay in the afternoon?" Chen Daolin looked at the sky.
"It's okay." The girl thought for a while and said, "Miss is in a bad mood and she will not see anyone in the room in the afternoon."
"..." Chen Daolin remembered the girl's words last night and said with a wry smile: "It's not surprising... Alas, if it were me, I would be very unhappy now. It was obviously my birthday, but in fact it seemed like I was a goods and was put on the table for sale. The guests below were all hypocritical, but they were actually thinking about how to grab the goods... Anyone would be unhappy if they were such a scene."
"...You don't think you're all ugly." The girl flipped her big eyes and said, "You have a conscience."
"You ladies... are you going to choose a sweetheart tonight?" Chen Daolin was a little curious: "Do you have to choose a sweetheart to the coming-of-age ceremony?"
"It's not a requirement to do this." The girl frowned, sighed, and said helplessly: "But the family arranged a banquet that can be invited to the family of marriage that can be invited to imagine. So no matter what, the future marriage partner will basically be in this banquet. Even if it's tonight... tonight... well, the lady bit the bullet and choose her sweetheart tonight, but over fifteen years old, the family will arrange the marriage for her as soon as possible. There is no male family in the Liszt family, and marriage is the top priority for the family. The lady will never escape. No matter how she hides, there will always be a day to surrender..."
As he said that, the girl's tone became more and more low, and Chen Daolin smiled: "You seem to be very worried about your ladies? It seems that she treats you very well on weekdays."
"It's good." The girl said casually: "But we always have to face things tonight. Tonight... no matter what, we always have to choose one person. There are already a few people in the family to choose, and one of these people must always be selected."
"Then choose someone you like." Chen Daolin curled his lips: "Anyway, you will surrender sooner or later."
"How can that be done!!!" the girl screamed suddenly: "How can a marriage without love be happy!!"
"Huh?" Chen Daolin looked strange, glanced at the girl, and smiled, "Can you actually say such a reasonable thing?"
"I...I!!" The girl puffed her cheeks and looked at Chen Daolin with anger, then became depressed: "Hey, what's the use of getting angry with you? In short... Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, to surrender."
"You ladies, are you so unwilling to accept it?" Chen Daolin thought for a while: "Why doesn't she agree? Is she a lover?"
"What do you care about so much!" The girl gave him a blank look.
"You're curious." Chen Daolin wasn't angry either.
"You noble magician, you have been chatting with me for so long and sitting with me for dinner. You are strange enough." The girl thought for a while and looked at Chen Daolin curiously: "I heard that magicians are all very arrogant."
"Where are you? Since you heard that magicians are all very noble and have a big air, you still have a list of things to sit with me for dinner and chat. You little maid are not too brave! You are strange enough." Chen Daolin laughed.
"Bold... What's the use of being brave? After tonight, no matter how brave you are, you will put it away." The girl looked at Chen Daolin and saw the doubts in the other person's eyes. She quickly explained: "Well... If the lady has a marriage, I will be her close servant and will follow her in the future, so I will lose my freedom."
