Chapter 159 shelter 1
"I'm sorry, I really can't do anything, but you can stay here and treat this place as your home. Don't worry, I won't instruct you to do this or that like I did at the beginning. If you are unhappy one day... you will come and fight me.
I, I will stand still and let you hit me until you laugh." Angus thought that the killer trick he came up with was too childish, and the chance of making Lanaya laugh out loud was almost
zero.
But what he didn't expect was that Lanaya actually laughed and extended her little finger to him: "It's a deal."
Angus was stunned for a moment, and then he put his little finger on it.
The carriage stopped, and the carriage driver shouted to the rear. Angus knew that he had reached his destination, but he did not urge Lanaya to get off quickly, but made a very polite gesture, as if asking her to get off.
generally.
Lanaya did not reject Angus's kindness, she smiled at Angus in a decent manner, got up and got out of the car.
Although this smile seemed to Angus to be just a dry laugh. Think about it, such a young girl has lost her only relative. No matter how many comfort methods he uses, how can her mood be better at this time?
?
Angus got out of the car right behind Ranaya. This was another entrance to the market that he had visited yesterday. Angus said to Ranaya: "I've really wronged you these past two days. I'm going to buy some."
I’ll give you a nicer set of clothes, come with me.”
Angus's tone was very affirmative. What he meant was "I will give it to you", rather than a vague question of "Do you want it?". This attitude made Lanaya not as disgusted with him as before.
And she also felt that Angus was quietly changing.
"Thank you." Lanaya looked down at the ground, with melancholy and downcast eyes, and no trace of curvature at the corners of her mouth.
Angus was also very satisfied with Lanaya's non-fussy character, so he bought an outfit that he liked at first sight. After Lanaya put it on, he headed straight for the destination.
"What do you want to buy?" Angus came to a store and the vendor greeted him warmly.
Lanaya hid behind Angus and stared at the merchant intently. Based on her previous experience, she now had some doubts about whether all the trading partners Angus was looking for had something to do with Steve.
But this kind of look in the eyes of the merchant seemed a bit... resentful. The merchant looked at Lanaya for a while, then said to Angus with a smile: "Who is this girl?"
Angus was at a loss and couldn't say a word. What kind of relationship should Xiao Qi have with him? A maid? But Xiao Qi was so sad just now, will she be immediately angry when he says this...
...As a result, no one will do the work for him! But what's more important now is that Angus has regarded Lanaya as a friend. He will also have a companion for his future shopping, and he can't bear to let her go.
However, they are not lovers. It doesn't matter if they say it out loud, as long as they are clear about it. But what if Xiaoqi misunderstands?
"Yes... she's my sister." Angus finally thought of a more suitable title.
The vendor nodded thoughtfully, smiled ambiguously a few times, and said: "You are a sister who will be lost after just one day of looking for her!"
Angus wanted to get angry for a moment, but was stopped by a movement made by Lanaya who was standing behind him. Lanaya gently pulled back the corner of his clothes.
"Hey, girl. He said, how much will it cost you?" This time, the vendor boldly asked Ranaya directly.
If Lanaya's thoughts were any less pure... this vendor might suffer a big loss.
Fortunately, Lanaya did not understand that level of meaning, and even with her own understanding, she did not answer the vendor's question. Instead, Angus suddenly put on a serious expression and glared at the vendor, saying
: "She has a bit of a temper, please be careful what you say!"
The vendor was a little embarrassed for a moment, but he seemed to be a man who was good at smoothing things over for himself, and he soon started to smile again, "It seems you are serious this time?"
Angus didn't want to pursue this issue too much, so he went straight to the point and took out the note and handed it to the vendor. After a cursory glance, the vendor said to him: "I understand. I'll put these in right away."
Sort out the goods and have them delivered to your carriage."
After saying that, the vendor looked at Ranaya several times with a sly look.
"Why does he keep looking at me?" After all the goods were loaded into the car, the vendor said goodbye. Now Angus and Lanaya were the only two people left in the car. At this time, Lanaya finally looked impatient.
asked.
"Of course it's because you're beautiful." Angus seemed to say this without thinking, but after saying it, he subconsciously paused because he instantly realized that this was actually what he meant...
"Why don't I feel that way?" Lanaya also flipped the broken hair from her forehead in a stylish way and combed her waist-length scorpion tail. "When I first saw that person, I kind of hated him.
do not know why."
"It would be weird if you liked him." Angus smiled as if he was eager for Lanaya to change the subject.
After returning to Steve's "station", Angus unloaded all the goods on the car, and then said to Ranaya: "Steve needs me to call a few people to help him work. You... better go back and rest.
Bar."
"Can I come with you?"
Angus didn't expect Lanaya to make such a request, but when he thought about it, her brother no longer had the honorary rank of deputy commander. Now no one should care that there is a certain soldier in the legion with them.
It's about work. So he nodded and said: "Okay, but if Steve doesn't agree... I have no choice."
Lanaya didn't show any joy, she just nodded and followed Angus obediently.
Angus found three people in turn. After seeing these three people, Lanaya made a definite conclusion. These three people were Steve's other three apprentices besides Owen.
"Who is she?" Simon asked, pointing at Ranaya.
"She is a patrolman who is appreciated by me, right? Xiao Qi." Angus always involuntarily puts on airs in front of these three people, otherwise his sense of existence will be buried, and he knows this very well.
Ranaya nodded in agreement.
"Patrol?" Chris frowned, looked at the corner of the sky and thought for a while, then said, "Is it the patrolman whose brother is the deputy commander?"
"Angus! How could you bring her in!" Luke seemed to have a fierce look, with anger written all the time on his face, and shouted at Angus: "Didn't Steve just say that yesterday?
I told you never to let her go and come back!"
"Her brother is no longer the deputy commander now." Angus said with a wry smile. After speaking, he glanced at Lanaya, fearing that she would make an unhappy expression again.
Ranaya turned her gaze to the ground thoughtfully. She knew that Steve already knew that she had been here, and it was very likely that Angus had revealed it to him.
"What's going on?" A rickety figure walked out of the studio. He glanced this way and said in a weird voice: "Angus, you didn't understand what I said yesterday, did you?
"
"That's not the case, Master Angus, listen to me, the fact is..." After Angus finished speaking, he also used his eyes to ask for Lana's opinion. He has now unknowingly become very respectful to Lana.
Damn it, maybe he didn't even notice it himself.
But Ranaya ignored him at all and was staring at the toes of her shoes alone in a daze.
Angus turned around helplessly and continued: "When I went out to purchase today, something happened on the way. I asked some people and found out that her deputy commander's brother deceived Sunset from the beginning.
Legion and the royal family of the Paracel Empire. He is not that hero at all. Now, he will be executed."
Steve frowned so deeply that he could kill three mosquitoes. And his eyes could not be called friendly at any time. When he looked at people, people thought he was glaring at him. So
, when Ranaya raised her head, she happened to see Steve staring at her.
Steve's eyes met Ranaya's for less than two seconds before they separated for no other reason. Ranaya just listened to Angus's story and shed two more lines of tears. At this time, her eyes were full of circles.
Red and swollen.
Steve glanced sideways at Ranaya again, and now he found that Ranaya was no longer looking at him, but continued to lower her head and sob. He asked lightly: "What's your name?"
"Lanaya."
"Where were you from before joining the Legion of the Sunset?"
"A slum in Kuanglan City."
When Angus heard Lanaya say her real name in front of Steve, she felt inexplicably uncomfortable. Why could she say her name under Steve's pressure, but face his
Did she deliberately conceal it at all? In her heart, could it be that Steve's status was higher than hers?
After thinking about it for a while, Angus naturally rejected this conjecture. How could this be possible?
Steve neither nodded nor made any action related to satisfaction. In his opinion, no matter how Lanaya answered his questions, he would not take it seriously. If everyone said the truth,
So why are there so many people in the world being deceived?
However, when Steve heard Lanaya say his name, he secretly went through all the people he had heard of in his mind, and it was true that he had never heard of such a person.
Steve finally turned around and walked towards Ranaya. Angus nervously stared at Steve's every move, but he knew clearly that even if Steve wanted to drive Ranaya away,
There was nothing he could do.
