Chapter 82 She... Does she like me?
After helping Youla deal with the tea stuck in her throat, Lin Yan returned to his seat.
However, before he could finish the tea in his hand, the maid Adeline took Diluc and walked down from the upstairs.
Lin Yan, who saw Diluke, immediately put down the teacup and stood up and walked forward. Seeing this, Youra followed him.
"Grandpa Diluke, long time no see." He greeted Diluke politely, but the other party was still expressionless as usual.
Youla, who had no good impression of Diluke, felt even more unhappy when she saw him so coldly.
Fortunately, because Lin Yan is here, the dissatisfaction in her heart did not burst out directly.
If it were normal, she would have sent a consultation invitation to Diluke.
"I heard that there were people from the Knights of the West Wind, and I didn't want to come down, but for your sake, I could barely come and take a look." After speaking in a cold tone, Diluc turned her gaze to Youla, as if she was from the Knights of the West Wind.
"Are you?" However, after seeing Youla's face clearly, Diluc was stunned, because he seemed to have seen this face somewhere, but he couldn't remember it.
Youra will not miss this opportunity at last.
"Captain of the Guerrilla Squad, [Wave Knight] Youla Lawrence, remember it for me, Diluke Leggenfinder. After solving the daughter of the Gunheld family, my next target is you." His tone seemed like a threat, and Youla's expression looked very sharp.
"Lawrence..." Nannan said, and Diluke finally recognized Youla, "So that's it, are you the eldest daughter of the Lawrence family? I originally admired you quite a bit. Although you joined the Knights of the West Wind made me feel a little regretful, but why... you seem to hate me?"
"Hmph! Don't ask why, anyway, you are also the object of my revenge!" He put his hips on his hips, raised his head, and held revenge. Youla's three-in-one qualities made Diluke look full of questions.
Lin Yan, who was standing aside, quickly said, "Don't care, her personality is just like this. She said she is holding a grudge, but in fact she is just a way for her to express her favor."
"But I can't tell that she has a good impression of me at all." Diluke's expression still seemed very cold, as if he only knew this expression.
Youla did not argue with Diluke anymore, while Lin Yan kept explaining to both sides like a peacemaker.
After finally explaining it clearly, Diluke asked Lin Yan and the others about their purpose of finding him.
"You came to me, why do you want me to help you?" Adeline told him Lin Yan's words, so he knew that Lin Yan was here to ask for his help.
"This..." This incident made Lin Yan a little difficult to speak, and now Youla has made the atmosphere stiff, and he doesn't know how to tell Diluke.
"I want you to help me pick a few ice fog flowers." In the end, Lin Yan gritted his teeth and said it.
As expected, Diluke seemed to be dissatisfied with them coming to find themselves specifically for such trivial matters.
But after a moment of silence, Diluke closed his eyes and sighed and said, "Where is the ice fog flower? I'll pick it for you."
Diluke actually agreed to his request, which made Lin Yan overjoyed. In order to prevent Diluke from taking back what he said, he quickly took him to the location where the three Ice Fog Flowers were.
"It's actually three." Diluke seemed a little surprised to see the three ice fog flowers growing by the lake.
Rare flowers like Ice Fog Flower are not common, and there are very few that grow in one place at the same time.
"These three ice fog flowers are divided into one." Diluke suddenly made a request, which made Lin Yan unexpectedly.
Then, he also explained why he suddenly made a request: "I thought there were only one or two flowers, but who would have thought it would be three. Ice fog flowers are rare, and their powder is an excellent item for summer heat escape. And I might be able to use it to debug new varieties of wine."
"How? Can you agree to my request?" Diluke asked Lin Yan.
Faced with Diluke's question, Lin Yan didn't know how to answer, because it was not him who needed Ice Fog Flower, but Youra.
He looked at Youla, who seemed to understand what she meant. After a moment of psychological struggle, she finally nodded to Lin Yan.
"I promise you that these three ice fog flowers can be divided into one of you."
After agreeing to Diluke's request, the other party no longer wasted time. He took out the big sword and enchanted the fire element. He opened the petals of the ice fog flower in a few seconds and got the flower center inside.
According to the agreement, Diluke took away one of the flowers and the remaining two. After Diluke handed them to Lin Yan, Lin Yan handed them to Youra.
After all, she needs this thing, and she doesn't need it.
"So, where are you going next? If you have nothing to do, please accompany me to work on duty. My team members were sent to other places to work on duty. I was the only one who was on duty at Yingxiang Beach." After taking the Ice Fog Flower Heart in Lin Yan's hand, Youla sent him an invitation again.
This time, he was invited to accompany him on duty, and the general content was to destroy monsters like the Chuqiu people and the Abyss Mage.
"No, I want to go back to sleep." Unexpectedly, Lin Yan rejected her invitation, and the reason for her was that she wanted to go back to sleep.
In fact, Lin Yan was really a little sleepy. He couldn't get enough energy when he was dozing off, so he didn't want to accompany Youla on duty.
"Why do you sleep every day?" Youla, who was rejected, was a little dissatisfied. It was not because Lin Yan rejected her, but because his reason for rejection was too perfunctory.
"Who doesn't sleep every day?" After saying that, Lin Yan turned around and planned to leave, "Okay, stop making trouble. If it really doesn't work, it's okay to wait until I wake up and then accompany you on duty."
Seeing Lin Yan going back, Youla suddenly became anxious: "Wait, don't leave!"
When she rushed to Lin Yan, she didn't know if she was getting hot or what was going on, but she subconsciously grabbed Lin Yan's hand.
Lin Yan turned his head, looked at her with an incredible look on his face, and then looked at his caught hand.
"You..." At this time, Lin Yan didn't know what to say, so he could only stand still.
Realizing that she was a little excited, Youla quickly let go of her hand, and a blush appeared on her face. She planned to fool her with a proud attitude as usual.
But this time, Lin Yan did not let her succeed.
Suddenly he took a step forward. This time, Lin Yan took the initiative to grab her hand.
The sudden action made Youla seem a little overwhelmed. How could she have thought that Lin Yan, who has always been honest on weekdays, would choose to take the initiative to attack at this time.
For a moment, she even forgot to resist, or she actually had no intention of resisting.
The blush on his face became more and more obvious. Now Youra looks like a hint of girlish shyness.
And Lin Yan finally realized something at this moment.
"Does she... like me?"
