boy and bone

When the meeting ended, Man slightly let out a sigh of relief.He followed behind his father and the other brothers, like a shadow, silently.

Yue Xili passed by with the sound of falling heels, and whispered, "Where did you go in the middle of the meeting?"

"It's just the bathroom."

"You are not a child anymore, don't you even have the minimum patience?"

Facing Yuexi's lesson, Man just smiled perfunctorily.

"Duke Guilanzhi!" A gray-haired man suddenly stopped Lin Guilanzhi.

"Duke Brandel." Lin Guilanzhi responded politely.

"Please take a step to speak."

But after a while, the voice over there became louder, as if they were arguing about something.

Only a few words can be heard:

"It wasn't before..."

"You know my son..."

"I was played around by you?!"

Yuexi saw that something was going to happen, so she immediately stepped forward to make a rescue after she was waiting, and she looked very gentle and respectful.

Duke Brandel stared wide-eyed, and he was about to slap Yuexi's face with his hand, but fortunately Yuexi reacted quickly and took a step back.

"You! You lied to my son! You bewitched him! In order to marry you and please you, you let him sell the Red Heart Demon Mine to the black market without telling me! Then expose him, so that you can naturally get the ownership of the Demon Mine! This It's all your trap! Trap! Yuexi Guilanzhi, Lin... your family is extremely vicious! Sooner or later, I will make you pay the price!"

Lin Guilanzhi protected his daughter behind him, and warned: "Duke Brandel, as an old friend, I forgive you for being blinded by hatred because of the pain of losing a child, and I forgive you for all the inappropriate and even Slanderous remarks. We will talk after you calm down."

Saying so, Duke Guilanzhi escorted his daughter away.

Looking at the three people not far away with cold eyes, he felt a little clearer in his heart.

However, Man is used to keeping silent in his family. After all, if he rolls his eyes, they will think he has a dark heart.

Returning to the sleeping hall specially prepared for the Kiranji clan in the palace, Duke Kiranji, the head of the clan, sat at the head of the long dining table. Refreshments during the break have been arranged properly, and beautiful and delicate pastries are placed in front of everyone. He was full of joy, drinking strong tea and said: "Yuexi, next month is your birthday, what do you want?"

The other sons of the Kiranji family were treated not too differently from Man.

In the eyes of their father, in front of their sister, Man's sister, everything was overshadowed.

Even if it was a dinner table gathering within the family, the rest of them seemed like air.

The boss is cowardly and makes a silly apology, the second child can't get in when he wants to interrupt, the third child is absent-minded and only pays attention to his desserts, and the man is quietly trying to figure out everyone's expressions. go.

Ever since his mother traveled far away to the forest of night, Man Kiranji has become less attached to this clan.

It's just that his wings are not yet full, and he doesn't have enough strength to support him to leave this smoky place. He still has to endure this chaos for a while.

Yuexi shook her head sensibly: "Father, running the Red Heart Demon Mine has consumed a lot of our manpower and material resources. Now that our family's finances are not doing well, I don't need any gifts. I just hope that the whole family can spend a peaceful time together." this period."

Lin Guilanzhi praised: "You are a gift from God, child. I knew it the moment you were born."

"I love you, my elf." Lin Guilanzhi looked at her lovingly: "As a father, I must make my daughter shine like a star on her birthday."

"Thank you father." Yuexi said.

How Duke Lin Guilanzhi thought his daughter was perfect, the Duke said: "At night, remember to get in touch with the third honorary earl of the Mechanical Alliance. I believe in your charm, he will be very useful to us .

As soon as this remark comes out, no one is a fool.

Unexpectedly, Yuexi said, "Father, we just got the Red Heart Demon Mine, and we don't have any extra funds to participate in the mecha auction... Other clans are eyeing this, I don't think the final transaction price will be... ..."

"Of course I know." Lin Guilanzhi said: "The new generation of mechas is not important to me. You should know that mechas are being eliminated and updated very quickly. Your birthday gift when you were young is the one that has been with you for more than ten years. The 'first-generation mecha' maid is already a dull old model. Speaking of which, why do you still keep the outdated things? Take this opportunity, you can ask the third earl to replace you with a new one."

"Father, I have always maintained her very well. When some parts and gears are being repaired, I have also updated them in a timely manner. I believe that the speed of the current 'Luoge' is still no less than that of the new mecha. She is not Needs to be replaced."

Lin Guilanzhi said indifferently: "I'm just a proposal, and I respect your wishes. But you must contact the third earl. Remember that we are not making mechas for him, but the technology he has now and the future. The technology that will be mastered. I heard that he is a genius in the field of mechanics. He has been obsessed with those metal blocks since he was a child, and he will develop very well in this area..."

"And he has this wish. He once approached me in private. He said he fell in love with you at first sight."

"...we've never met."

"I showed him your picture."

"Father!" Yue Xi suddenly raised her voice and said, "I haven't broken off my engagement with the Brandel clan yet?"

"It's just an engagement, and besides, they won't have any room for turning over. I won't leave them any room either. Your marriage contract has existed in name only since the day Brendel's son was imprisoned."

Yuexi couldn't believe it, she resisted: "What will the outside world say? I just lost my fiancé and immediately got married?" Yuexi's voice was a little trembling, and she could feel that she was using all her "education" to resist the upcoming Outburst of emotions.

He was full of secrets, he had never seen his perfect sister showing her spikes to his father.

Lin Guilanzhi's face changed slightly: "You don't need to care about these, you only need to care about how to get more benefits for the family."

"Father, I can use other methods to benefit the family. I don't have to use this method every time. As far as I know, the earl of the Mechanical Alliance has a frivolous personality. He is not as easy as Brandel. Simply controlled by me..."

"Yuexi! Come to my room." Lin Guilanzhi stopped immediately.

Yuexi blurted out in a hurry.Knowing that she had made a slip of the tongue, she followed in her father's footsteps.

Lin Guilanzhi told the others: "You all go back to your rooms, and attend the dinner party on time."

"Yes, father."

Man's voice was drowned out by the other brothers' responses.

The door of the dormitory closed, and a crisp sound came suddenly.

Yuexi's side face instantly showed five red marks, and she covered her side face.

"You are not a child anymore, what should I say and what should not be said, do you want me to teach you again?" Lin Guilanzhi had a trace of anger hanging from the corner of his eyes.

Yue Xi remained silent.

Lin Guilanzhi was originally furious, but when he saw Yuexi's beautiful face, his attitude gradually softened, because he knew that Yuexi's face was the only thing that could help him get things done.

He walked around to his desk, took out the birthday gift he had prepared in advance, and handed it to Yuexi: "Open it and have a look."

Yue Xi raised her hand slowly, and took Hong Fang's box, which contained a pair of pearl earrings.

Lin Guilanzhi took them out one by one, and stabbed them carefully through the small earhole on Yuexi's earlobe.

Lin Guilanzhi put on the face of a loving father again. While wearing earrings for Yuexi, he said: "This was originally your birthday present, but now you have seen it. I hope you know that Dad loves you very much." You love this home very much."

"But you should understand the difficulties of this family now. No one can help me. Only you, Yuexi, from the day you were born, your meaning is to help me and this family."

"I know you have sacrificed a lot for this, but do you think this is not what you should pay, should you repay? We gave you life, and the superior clan family raised you up. Look outside, how many People are still struggling for a bite of food, how many people are trying their best to get to your current position, but you, these things are all innate, and all of them are given to you by your family. Am I right?"

"Yes..." Yuexi said softly.

Lin Guilanzhi put the pearl earrings on Yuexi. He looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction, and admired: "It's so beautiful, just like you and Man's mother. But you are more beautiful than your mother, you are more beautiful than anyone else. A woman must be beautiful."

"I need your talent now to make a little contribution to our family. To conquer Earl Fkosa, I know you can do it, you have verified your ability in this area for me... He is a dissolute man, but you There must be a way to satisfy him."

"I know what you're worried about, don't worry, if he wants to fuck you, then I will find another way for you, okay?" Lin Guilanzhi comforted him in a kind tone.

For a moment, Yuexi nodded stiffly.

"Sorry, I was a little rude to you just now, I apologize to you, please forgive me? There is no overnight feud between father and son? Huh? Smile." Lin Guilanzhi looked at the child with the same blue eyes as him, lovingly road.

Yuexi pulled the flesh of her face forcefully, and the corners of her lips were slightly raised.

"Go back to the room and have a good rest, tidy yourself up, and go." Lin Guilanzhi paused, and then said: "Oh, there is still time, he won't seize the opportunity, so don't waste your thoughts on him."

"But I'm curious, who can cure the curse."

"Understood, father." Yuexi said with a low voice.

"At the dinner party on time."

"Yes, father."

Back in her room, Yuexi leaned against the seam of the double doors, and slowly clenched her fists. It took about a long time to calm down before she walked to the mirror. She looked at the pearl earrings on her earlobe in the mirror, She showed disgust on her face, without even thinking about it, she immediately grabbed her ears with her hands, trying to tear off the pair of earrings, but she stopped, and she maintained a stiff posture for a long time, because she squeezed too hard, The fingertips covering the earlobe have turned white.

She stared at the beautiful figure in the mirror, feeling endless resentment.

The person in the mirror is like a colorful fake oil painting, as long as you are careful, you will find the vulgarity and hypocrisy under the heavy color.

He, not her.
