I am on the evil side? I am turning the tables!
Chapter 160 I refuse
After returning to the tribe, Fenda brought the two sisters, Reila and Reili, over.
The guard at the door bowed and said, "Sir, the elder is waiting for you in the study."
"understood."
After turning around and telling the two sisters, he went straight upstairs.
Knock on the door, "You looking for me?"
"Come in." A magnetic and low response came from inside the house.
Pushing the door open, the door closed again. Fenda walked to the desk familiarly. When he caught a glimpse of the scattered shoes beside him, he bent down to straighten the two shoes, and then stood back in his original position.
"You really are..." Cedric swallowed his words.
Fanta was always extremely persistent about certain things, and Cedric didn't know when he developed this habit.
Fenda looked at him seriously, with a serious attitude, and bowed slightly to show respect to the person sitting on the chair.
"What's wrong with me?" A calm and cold voice.
Others didn't notice anything unusual, but Cedric, who raised the child, couldn't help but notice it.
"Angry? Who can make you angry?" Cedric suddenly found it funny and stared at him as if he was watching a show.
"No." Fanta said stubbornly with a sullen face.
Cedric crossed his legs on the table and began to count.
"Let me think about it. What about that colleague who told you you were ugly last night? Didn't you beat him up so hard that he doubted his life? How dare he challenge you in that situation?"
"Or the saint who rejected you before? Haven't you lost interest in her a long time ago?"
"It's not the commander who excluded you, stole your clothes and made you run naked, right? We are all males. I saw that you didn't feel too sad when you came back naked. Didn't I have him dismissed in the end? He's back now?"
Cedric has a lot of dirty laundry on Fanta. If he were to tell you everything from the big to the small, he would still be unable to finish even if he spent three days and three nights.
"Master!" Fenta gnashed his teeth.
Finally he got a little angry, and Cedric stopped teasing him.
"Okay, then don't tell me." He waved his hand, a little regretful, "This child has grown up and has a bad temper."
"You're not old, why are you pretending to be so profound?" Fanta hit back mercilessly.
Cedric raised an eyebrow but didn't react to this.
"Okay, I asked you to come here because of Su Tang. She will be attending banquets frequently in the near future, so go and protect her."
There is usually a protector beside the saint to protect her safety. It's not that there are no protectors under Cedric, but they are definitely not as reliable as Fanta.
After all, he is an undercover agent, so he dare not expand his power too much. The people he can use are not as good as Fanta, whom he raised.
Even if the truth is revealed, there is always room for maneuver as long as we consider the kindness in the past.
Although it is a bit of a waste of talent to let the city defense commander be Su Tang's protector.
Just as Cedric finished speaking, he heard Fanta's cold refusal.
"No, I'm busy with official duties recently and can't spare the time. As a commander, I don't have the time to protect females."
Hey, what is this kid doing?
Cedric had never thought that Fanta would refuse. He adjusted his posture and no longer looked relaxed.
"I'm not discussing this with you. This is a notification and an order! Besides, how can I not know when you will be on duty? You are not on the duty list this time. Tell me, I want to know what you are busy with."
It was hurtful. Fenda just didn't want to have any contact with Su Tang, so she made up an excuse.
He didn't expect Cedric's attitude to be so firm, and he was determined to let him go to protect Su Tang.
For a moment, it was difficult for him to come up with a reasonable reason.
"There's a section of the city wall in the north that needs to be renovated, and I need to go and supervise the work." After thinking for a long time, he came up with this excuse.
He wasn't used to lying in front of Cedric or anything like that.
Cedric chuckled. "I'm not that old and blind. Do you really need to go there in person? Don't tell me you're rigorous in your work. You are rigorous, but not in this area. And don't tell me you've changed. I don't believe that."
"Instead of talking to me about this, you might as well just say that you hate Su Tang. This reason is more convincing than the one you made up before."
It would have been better if he hadn't said it, because this statement directly hit Fanta's sore spot.
He shuddered reflexively, and Cedric caught the movement accurately. He changed his expression and said jokingly, "It can't be related to her, right?"
Fanta has a cold face and silence is golden.
Cedric tapped his cheek with one hand, "You won't tell me? Then it's true."
"No."
"You're still being stubborn, don't you know what it's like to lie? Stop clenching your right hand, and don't keep your legs so tense!"
Fanta subconsciously clenched his fists and spread his legs slightly. After he came to his senses, he hummed softly through his nose and glanced at the green plants next to him.
"Look at you, why are you moving around if you don't feel guilty? Tell me, how did she offend you? Did she also say you're ugly?"
The word "also" was used very appropriately, indicating that Cedric was already accustomed to this, and he was not afraid of discouraging Fanta.
"nothing."
"If it's nothing, then it's true. I'll ask her to come over and apologize to you. Is that okay now?"
"Really not!" This time Fanta's voice was a little stronger.
His tone was somewhat impatient, and he was trying hard to get rid of something. "I'll go, I'll go, I'll go, okay? I'll go and protect her, don't guess, there's really nothing going on between us!"
"You kid..." Cedric looked at Fanta, his suspicion deepened. The more he argued, the more it proved that there was something going on between them.
"If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
Without waiting for Cedric's approval, he bowed and hurriedly left the study.
Looking at the direction where Fanta left, an idea flashed through Cedric's mind, but he immediately shook it off.
"No way? How long have they been together? Impossible, impossible."
After leaving the study, his tense mood finally relaxed and he breathed a sigh of relief. In front of Cedric, he really couldn't hide his worries.
Just as he was about to go downstairs, he ran into Su Tang who was chatting and laughing with the sisters.
The two of them turned their eyes away at the same time. Even though Su Tang had hinted to himself many times in his heart that he must not feel guilty, when it came down to it, it still went against his wishes.
The sisters didn't notice anything strange between the two and greeted Fanta excitedly.
"Chief, are you going back to the tribe?" Rui Li said cheerfully.
Rilla seemed to have noticed something and tugged at her sister's clothes. "You two adults should have something to say, right? We also need to pack our things, so we'll leave first."
Rui Li realized it later and was dragged away by her sister.
"Ahem." Su Tang cleared his throat. Sometimes he really didn't want the people around him to be so perceptive!
"Um... come to my place for a cup of tea?" Even though she felt uncomfortable, she still said politely.
Fenta glanced at her and said, "Thank you, Saint Lady. I have something else to do and I'll leave first."
The man went downstairs and was out of the hall in a few breaths.
Su Tang was left alone there, looking confused.
Huh? You hold a grudge like that?
