Hearing Lei Zhe's almost promise, Jian Qiao was stunned. He obviously didn't expect the other party to be so kind.
If Lei Zhe can stay in Grande all the time, it will undoubtedly bring him a great sense of security. So a bright light flashed in his dark eyes, and the source of this light was the handsome and innocent Lei Zhe.
When the door is unobstructed, it slowly closes.
Jian Qiao hurriedly stretched out his arm to open the car door, then leaned down, stared straight at Lei Zhe standing in front of the car, and said, "I also want to correct a wrong impression. Your lord, you are not domineering at all, On the contrary, you are so kind and lovely. I am lucky to have known you."
Lei Zhe raised his eyebrows and asked in a serious tone: "Domineering? Arrogant? Mr. Count, did you think so? Very well, I will leave Grande tomorrow, please ask for your own blessing!" Turn around and leave.
When his back turned to Jian Qiao, he grinned and smiled smugly.
Jane Joe shouted: "Are you kidding me? You never take back what you said, you are the greatest knight of Totes!"
He has always kept a certain distance from everyone, and he has never said such a witty thing to anyone. There is no doubt that the weight of Lei Zhe in his heart is different.
Lei Zhe's forward pace stopped, and he licked his sharp teeth again. Then he turned his head and said angrily: "The greatest knight can't resist your sweet words. Yes, I'm joking, are you happy? "
Jane Joe was happy. He had long forgotten the taste of smiling while showing his face, but at this moment, his eyes were brighter than the stars in the sky.
Lei Zhe looked at him like this, then pointed to his pupils and said, "It's really amazing, you have stars in your eyes."
Jian Qiao said without thinking, "this star is you."
Lei Zhe: "..."
Lei Zhe turned his head away and sighed secretly.
damn it! If there was a compliment competition held at Totes, the Earl would have won the championship. His brain hardly needs to think, as long as his mouth is opened, words smeared with honey will roll in.
Lei Zhe was completely defeated. He tutted and emphasized again: "You can do your business with peace of mind, and I will stay in Grande to watch you. Come on, let's go."
After speaking, he waved his hand, turned and walked towards his carriage. The brilliant lights reflected his tall figure and lengthened his silhouette.
And this silhouette is getting farther and farther, getting lighter and lighter.
For some reason, Jane Qiao was reluctant to part so quickly. He likes to stay with Lei Zhe. The two sit side by side on the sofa, drinking a few glasses of wine and chatting for a few days. This kind of lazy atmosphere is enough to make his heart that has been in anxiety all the year round. great calm.
Jane Joe is afraid of the night, because sleep will bring him into one desperate dream after another.
In those dreams, he was like a mayfly, he could only passively follow the dark whirlpool, and then he was swallowed by a strange fish full of sharp teeth. Apart from this ending, he never dreamed of anything good.
Every morning, he would wake up sweating profusely, and the remaining fear in his heart kept him from returning to his senses for a long time. So he cherished the safety and tranquility of the moment.
He shouted at Lei Zhe's back, "Have you exercised the right of the first night?"
This is every lord's favorite perk. When the young men and women in their domain are ready to marry, the lord has the right to take the bride's first night.
This topic really aroused Lei Zhe's curiosity. He immediately turned around and looked back, with a very serious tone: "Have you exercised this power?"
If Jane Joe answered yes, he would be very disappointed! Just thinking about it, the anger in his heart could no longer be suppressed. In addition to anger, he felt an indescribable irritability.
"I never, how about you?" Jian Qiao looked at Lei Zhe quietly.
Lei Zhe's tense face instantly eased, licking his teeth and grinning: "Neither do I."
"Then have you exercised the right to sabotage?" Jane Qiao continued to ask.
The so-called "right to destroy" means that the lord has the right to destroy the fields, houses or pastures of any person in his domain. Destroying a family is just a word for them.
Lei Zhe showed a look of contempt and sneered: "Of course not. Who would do such a thing for no reason? Did you do it?"
Jian Qiao shook his head: "Neither did I." Then he asked, "Have you ever exercised the right to lie down?"
The so-called right to lie down means: when a lord feels his legs are cold, he has the right to disembowel a serf, then put his legs into the other's stomach, and use the warm blood and internal organs to smear it. Warm yourself up.
When serfs die, they always lie down at the feet of the lord, so it is called "the right to lie down".
Lei Zhe cursed with great disdain: "This power is just shit! If I get chills, I will burn myself with the blood of my enemies instead of killing my people. Don't tell me you did, or we will It's impossible to be friends."
Believing in the spirit of chivalry, he will never kill unarmed weak people for no reason.
Jian Qiao stared deeply at this tall and strong man with wet eyes. He looked so powerful, so wild, like a slaughtering beast. But he also has soft and clean corners in his heart.
Staring at Mr. Count so "affectionately", Lei Zhe couldn't help touching his numb cheek, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Why do you keep staring at me? Is there something wrong with me?"
This kind of bright eyes pierced into his heart like the tip of a needle, making him hurt and itchy.
"There's nothing wrong with you." Jane Joe shook his head and said softly, "I've never exercised these powers, and I think they're all shit. So, can I be your friend now?"
Five years ago, Jane Joe firmly believed that it was impossible for him to make friends in this era, because his ideas, concepts, and values were incompatible with the people here. He is like a spark that has fallen into a desert. Without dry grass as an introduction, he will never be able to ignite the fire of civilization from modern society here.
He can only try his best to integrate himself into the world, and then silently tell himself before every night: Jane Qiao, don't forget that you are just an ordinary person. You are not a lord, and you cannot exercise the power of life and death at will.
Power fascinates and transforms. If he does get caught up in the thrill of power and becomes addicted to it, he will turn into a monster one day.
And such monsters can be seen everywhere in Grande, Bolsa, and every city he passes by.
But Rachel is different. In this day and age, he is that exception.
"I want to be your friend." Jane Qiao stretched out her hand and said slowly, "for the first time in my life, I have such an urgent desire. I want a friend, and that friend can only be you."
After a short pause, he asked almost cautiously, "Is it okay?"
Lei Zhe: "..."
The needle-prick feeling turned into a slamming hammer. Little did anyone know that his heart was beating wildly with every word of the count.
The big round eyes of the deer in the forest are not as strong as the feeling of pity and love brought by this man's moist eyes and staring at him quietly. Lei Zhe turned his head away, groaned secretly, then turned back and held the hand of Mr. Count who was stubbornly hanging in the air.
This pale and slender hand felt just as he imagined. Holding it is like holding a cloud, so soft, delicate and fragile.
Lei Zhe quickly released his strength, shook it twice, and said in a hoarse voice, "We are now friends."
This sentence made Jian Qiao show a satisfied expression.
Seeing his bright eyes, Lei Zhe grinned.
"Okay, go back my friend, it's already dark." He pointed to the dark sky.
Jian Qiao was still a little reluctant.
He lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then said: "You know, my biggest income is only the Grande store, and the proceeds of this store are used to pay for various convenience facilities such as nurseries, schools, and relief centers. Not only the Earl's House, but also my people, that's why I refuse your previous request for cooperation."
Lei Zhe almost forgot about the dispute when he first met, and after a while, he showed an expression of sudden realization.
"It's over, and I said the same thing when I left that day. You don't have to worry about it at all." He waved his hand indifferently.
Jane Joe leaned down, looked into his eyes, and said deliberately: "If you can subdue all the lords of Glory and connect their cities to each other, then I will be willing to cooperate with you. When we can I can feed my people even at a 50% profit when I open my shop to every corner of Glory unhindered."
This bold proposal made Lei Zhe stunned on the spot.
Jian Qiao immediately added: "Of course, I only said if." He looked at the sky and sighed: "Then goodbye my friend. The time with you is always so short. Before leaving, I We are already looking forward to our next reunion.”
These words undoubtedly came from the heart. If possible, Jane Qiao really wants to stay with Lei Zhe, chat from Yuesheng to Yueluo, and then fall asleep unconsciously. In that way, he might be able to safely escape the invasion of the nightmare.
Lei Zhe exudes a powerful energy, and Jane Qiao needs this energy.
Lei Zhe backed away. This time, he didn't want to turn around and left his back to Mr. Count.
This kind of parting, cookie-cutter words, uttered from the earl's mouth, have a sincere power to move people's hearts. So he made the next decision in an instant.
"The next reunion will be in three days, and I will hold a banquet at the Duke's Palace. I will invite the lords who hold a lot of fertile land, and their households have too much food to eat. Then, I will You introduce them one by one. Whether you can get enough food from their granary depends on your ability."
Lei Zhe put his index and middle fingers together, gestured between his brows, and said with a smile, "This time it's really goodbye, I hope you have a good dream tonight."
This blessing was too real for Jian Qiao, and this banquet helped him solve his biggest worry.
He stuck his head out of the car window and said to Leizhe, "You are not only my only friend now, but also my best and best friend!"
Like a kindergartener, Jane Qiao added two identical adjectives to express her agitated mood.
What responded to him was Lei Zhe's hearty laugh.
In the pitch-dark night, the stars shone above the two of them, just like the twinkling eyes when they stared at each other.
