Chapter 57 Ghost(2/2)
The man seemed to have become accustomed to the way of eating in a girl, but he still smiled at the dinner table and said, "Xiaoxing, what kind of dish is the best today?"
"Or which dish is not that delicious?"
"Did you eat it without adding some salt in my dish?"
"There is another dish I have put a lot of sugar."
The man said a little bit, as if he had deliberately made tricks in the dishes, trying to change the pace of the girl's meal, but all this still had no effect.
But the girl finally raised her right hand and made a gesture subtly.
Silence.
The man could only close his mouth obediently and then quietly watched the girl finish her meal.
After shaving the last grain of rice with chopsticks, the girl put down the chopsticks, then put her hands together to express her gratitude to the man quietly.
Of course, all this is still like a mechanical process.
The man sighed subtly, took out a sealed envelope from his arms and placed it on the table, and then pressed it with his hands to push it towards the girl.
This time he didn't speak.
When the girl saw the envelope, her expression finally became a little moved at that moment.
She reached out to take the envelope, opened it, and quickly finished reading what was said above.
The man stood opposite him and said nothing more.
After the girl read the content in the envelope, she seemed to feel subtle relief at that moment.
Then she looked up at the man opposite her.
“I need to be away for a while.”
The girl's voice was cold and calm, without any ups and downs or emotions, just simply saying what she wanted to do.
"Where to go?" the man asked with a smile.
The girl didn't answer, but just stood up and walked out of the house.
There are already people who are receiving the girl there.
In the end, the man was left alone in this empty room. He turned around and served himself a bowl of rice, picked up the chopsticks and started eating.
"She can eat the mutton that didn't add a little salt, but she can't eat it." The man complained while eating: "Stir scrambled eggs with tomatoes with three times the amount of sugar, and she didn't change her face."
"Next time I'd better not be so cruel to myself. After all, she can't eat much, so she will let me eat it in the end."
While complaining like this, a person appeared opposite him at some point.
"Do you want to cook together?" the man greeted: "I rarely cooked myself before."
"Sorry, I've eaten it." A woman was opposite the man.
A very beautiful woman.
"It's a bad feeling now." The woman said. "It feels like waiting to die."
"You are wrong." The man looked up at the other person: "You can't understand how happy I am now."
"Did you know, she's scared."
"She was scared, and the next name in the envelope was me."
"You sound very proud," said the woman. "Why did you choose her?"
"I chose the strongest one, why am I not proud?" the man praised with confidence, as if he was praising himself for raising the strongest one.
"Some people are dead, some children are dead, and you are almost the last pair of masters and apprentices." The woman said calmly: "If you don't act quickly, you will definitely die."
"You won't be her opponent."
"Why do you look down on me?" The man was very angry at her contempt: "Anyway, she is gone now, you have one, let's go out to practice and see if I'm not old!"
"But you still can't beat her." The woman said calmly: "You know it yourself."
"She is a natural weapon, an existence born to stand on the top of the world, and it is also the sharpest blade that our clan swung to this earth."
"You may be her last subtle emotional connection to the world. When you die, she will be completely free."
"Or you prove that you are really not old." The woman said to the man.
"Is it free?" the man smiled: "She was indeed born to be the most free child, but you brought her here."
"I've figured out what to do. Maybe when she comes back this time, everything will be clear."
"Xinghe!" The woman looked at him and almost shouted: "Why do you have to be in a state of urgency all the time!"
"Because I was a person who acted voluntarily." The man said calmly.
He pointed at the top of his head: "Your visiting time is up, you can leave now."
"This will be the last time I've come to see you." The woman said tremblingly.
After saying this, the woman left.
Only Xinghe was left sitting alone in the room.
