135, the shy Estes
"What is your answer?"
"Of course I agree." Lu Ye sighed, "There is no way, I have dereliction of duty at work."
"You can't blame you all," Esdes comforted people with a rare slight relief. "Two major accidents were caused by night attacks. The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. No one knows when and where they will launch an attack. In this case, even Bud himself will be difficult to handle perfectly."
Lu Ye was stunned. It seemed that Asdes' attitude towards him seemed to have eased a lot?
Could it be that I was dissatisfied because I was interrogated?
This is a good thing.
After all, we need to establish a "more friendly bilateral relationship" with her now.
Although it is despicable, it has to do so in order to achieve the goal.
On the other hand, for the loss of the captain of the Imperial Capital Guard...
Lu Ye didn't care at all!
Captain of the Imperial Capital Guard?
Who cares about this thing now? Because he was almost interrogated, but also almost cut off his hands.
Lu Ye wished he could ask for this position immediately.
Anyway, he can't use it now. Even if he wants to find any information from the security team, Iyeyas and the others will help him.
"Well, I received it, so you won't be punished, this was promised by Bud himself."
"Does he just dislike me so much?" Although he didn't care about the position of guard captain, Lu Ye still wanted to ask.
"It's not that he doesn't like you, he just doesn't like you," said Esdes. "That guy never targets anyone. In his opinion, if things are screwed up, he should be punished... It's such a rigid person."
"That's right..."
The matter is finished.
The room suddenly fell into silence.
But Esdes doesn't seem to leave.
She just sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the coniferous forest outside the window, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone into her icy blue eyes, which was particularly beautiful.
Lu Ye looked at her side face quietly, thinking that Asdes was not that cold when she relaxed. She didn't have that cold look, nor the poker-like look. She just relaxed and stayed here in the most normal posture.
Like an ordinary girl...
No, it should be a pretty girl.
At this time, Lu Ye thought of the Three Beasts.
But now is not a good time to ask. After all, the Three Beasts had just died, and Lu Ye was not so stupid.
This matter will be a little bit later. Now let’s consider how to establish a good relationship with this beautiful girl.
But how to start?
Praise.
After all, Lan had said before that the first thing he had to do next was to express his envy to Esdes.
Girls can't stand praise, otherwise there wouldn't be so many scumbags in the world who talk sweetly.
With a try, Lu Ye spoke. Anyway, if he fails, there will be no serious consequences... Probably.
"team leader."
"Um?"
"Your hair is...good-looking."
Esdes turned his head and stared at Lu Ye, as if urging him to continue talking quickly.
"That, just feels that under this light, your hair is like the sea."
"Sea?" A curious expression appeared in Esdes' eyes.
"Well, it's like the sea under the setting sun." Lu Ye said sincerely.
"You lived by the beach before?"
“For a while, I lived on an island and saw this almost every day.”
What Lu Ye said was naturally the time when he and Violet lived on the isolated island.
Although that period was a bit difficult, I was also very happy.
Although I was once worried about whether I would be trapped on that isolated island forever, now I think it’s just a vacation!
And even if he stays there forever, he is not alone.
And Violet.
"But why does my hair make you think of the sea?" Asdes asked.
Lu Ye’s metaphor is a bit difficult for her who lacks artistic attainments.
There is no way, after all, she is a woman who is not interested in beautiful music.
Lu Ye had no choice but to explain it briefly.
Esdes' hair is blue, and in the afterglow of dusk, it is really as beautiful as the sparkling sea under the setting sun.
"Every time I see that kind of scenery, I feel it is very beautiful, as if it can heal a person's heart, and even the fatigue of a day will disappear." Lu Ye said with a smile.
He couldn't help but recall those days. In fact, the reason why he could heal the sea every time he saw the setting sun was not entirely because of its beautiful appearance, but also because of the little girl who accompanied him to enjoy the scenery and a seafood meal with seasonings.
"That's how..."
Looking at Lu Ye's smile, Esdes seemed to be stunned for a moment, then lowered his head slightly, pinching his index finger and thumb a few centimeters in front of his forehead.
She was pinching the brim of her hat and then pulling it down, but she seemed to have forgotten that she was not wearing a hat at this time. In order to cover up her behavior, she immediately changed to pinching a small thigh of hair on her forehead and rubbing it gently.
"Captain?" Long hair blocked Esdes' side face, and Lu Ye couldn't see her expression.
"Nothing, that's all I want to say...you have a good rest."
After saying that, Esdes got up and left the room.
Lu Ye felt that Esdes' behavior was a bit strange, but he couldn't say it.
"I, have I said the wrong thing..." he muttered alone.
...
Soon, Esdes returned to his residence.
Her pace was very fast along the way, and even if someone greeted her, she ignored it.
As soon as you enter the door, the fragrance of delicacies and the fragrance of red wine comes to your face.
Headed by the head maid, two rows of maids bowed at the door in unison: "Mr. Esdes, you are back, and the dinner you ordered for two people is ready."
Although it was two people, the food was piled up on the whole long table.
A brief look at the dishes are about twenty, and they are completely different.
"I don't have an appetite, you can eat it yourself."
Esdes did not stop at all and walked straight upstairs, leaving only the maids looking at each other.
"What's wrong with her...?"
"I don't know."
"It's not... dumped, right?"
"Really, that's a pity. Who would reject Lord Esdes?"
"Oh, we finally put some use in addition to cleaning, and even the room was so carefully arranged..."
"Poor General."
"Shh--Speak quietly!" The maid stared at the maids.
The maids booed immediately.
But they were all regretting Esdes.
After all, this table was made by Esdes immediately after he came back this afternoon.
The maids working under Esdes's men have a very leisurely life. Not only does Esdes take the initiative to raise their salaries, but their work is also easy. They just simply clean the house. They don't even have to take care of the back garden, because Esdes will do it yourself.
Asdes, who had no requirements for maids on weekdays, made so many delicious foods with them today and specifically ordered them to tidy up the room. It was obvious that there was something "big move".
But... the general came back alone tonight.
The maids couldn't help but sigh.
They are not young anymore, and the youngest is in their thirties.
Although Asdes is afraid of many people, in the eyes of the maids who have been with her for a long time, Asdes is not as cruel as the rumored one, or her cruelty is only directed at the enemy.
After all, Asdes is quite good to them. Over the years, they actually hope that this big girl can be happy.
