A noble and beautiful girl in fox fur was standing in front of the eaves, stretching out her delicate hands to let snowflakes fall onto her palms.
The girl was thin and thin, and her face was as pale as snow.
The shadow in memory merged with the girl in front of me!
Shi Qi remembered that Miss Lan was not much older than him.
Shi Qi still remembered that when he first saw her, it was also such a snowy day.
He was huddled in the corner of the street, shivering from the cold.
Pedestrians were in a hurry, no one stopped for him, he was already desperate at that time!
He felt that tomorrow he would turn into a hard corpse and be thrown into the donkey cart by the city guards just like the other begging companions.
Until a carriage passed by, and then slowly backed up.
The heavy curtains on the carriage were lifted and then closed again.
The coachman jumped out of the carriage, lifted him up with one hand, and said, "Lucky boy!"
Even if he has the Scarlet Blood Demon Sword and has the opportunity to become a top expert, his wish has not changed.
That was a promise he made sincerely.
There are always some people who value commitment more than life.
…
"Slave Xinyue, I have met the eldest lady!"
Lan Yanlin stared at the snowflakes falling from the sky and asked, "Xin Yue, what's the matter with you here?"
"Young Master asked me to bring Shi Qi over to be your bodyguard!"
"Guard?" Lan Yanlin glanced at Shi Qi.
Shi Qi held his breath, his muscles tensed together.
Even when facing Lan Yanming, he had never been so nervous before.
After so many years of hard work, Seventeen is today!
Will the young lady be surprised when she sees him
"Forget it, take him back! Tell Big Brother, I appreciate his kindness." Lan Yanlin waved her hand and said, "With my mother-in-law and Luya here, I don't need guards."
got rejected
Seventeen never thought that this would happen!
If it was Seventeen before, he might be helpless, but now...
He took a deep breath, stood up and asked, "Miss, do you remember me?"
Lan Yanlin took a closer look at the tall and burly Shiqi, frowned slightly and asked, "Do we know each other?"
"I'm seventeen!"
Seventeen
This number Lan Yanlin sounded very familiar, but she still couldn't remember it.
Shi Qi's heart hurts like being stabbed by a knife!
She turned her head to look at an old woman in her fifties with slightly gray hair standing beside her.
The old woman thought for a while and said: "It all happened more than ten years ago. It's normal for the eldest miss to forget. I didn't expect him to grow up so much."
Shi Qi said excitedly: "Grandma still remembers!"
"Of course I still remember, I'm not too old to be blind!" The mother-in-law said with a smile, "You are the second in the exam in recent years, you are the boy who was born as a servant, right?"
"Well, it's me!"
Lan Yanlin asked her mother-in-law with some doubts: "Who is he?"
"About ten years ago, you brought him back to Lan's house from the street."
"Oh, so it's you!" Lan Yanlin suddenly said.
In fact, she couldn't remember clearly either, only after her mother-in-law reminded her, she vaguely remembered such a thing.
"Miss remember?"
"I remember!" Lan Yanlin nodded.
Shi Qi looked at her expectantly and asked, "Then can I stay?"
"Why can you stay when I think of you?"
"Missy promised me before, when I pass the assessment in the future, I will come to Lan Mansion to be your guard!"
Lan Yanlin turned her gaze to her mother-in-law again, but she obviously forgot again.
The mother-in-law lowered her head, cleared her throat in embarrassment and said, "I was not far from you at that time, Yanlin, you did agree!"
Then the mother-in-law added: "You talk so loudly, I'm nearby... I didn't eavesdrop on purpose."
emmm... This sentence is a bit self-deprecating.
Meeting Shi Qi's expectant eyes, Lan Yanlin helplessly covered her forehead with her hand.
"Why don't you just keep him? Anyway, one more person here is not too many, and one less person is not a lot!" The mother-in-law suggested, "It's not easy for Lu Ya and the others to come forward for some things, so let's just be one more errand runner, and I can't let you down." A wish from the eldest son."
"Okay!" Under her mother-in-law's persuasion, Lan Yanlin finally let go.
Shi Qi said excitedly: "Thank you, Miss, thank you, mother-in-law!"
So what if the eldest miss has already forgotten him
The eldest lady just bestowed favors casually, but to him, the kindness was as heavy as a mountain!
"Then seventeen, you should obey your mother-in-law's arrangement!" Lan Yanlin said and entered the inner room with the help of the maids.
Seeing Lan Yanlin leaving, Xinyue lowered her voice and said to her mother-in-law: "Mother-in-law, Seventeen is very valued by the eldest son, if he hadn't insisted, the eldest son would never let him be a guard, and he might disappear for a few days in the future , please bear with me."
"Well, I understand!" The mother-in-law is sophisticated and well aware of Shiqi's potential, and she values Shiqi's personality even more. "Don't worry, the eldest lady won't care."
After Xinyue left, the mother-in-law said to Shi Qi: "Come with me!"
It can be said that Lan Yanlin doesn't lack anything here. If she needs anything, she can directly give the housekeeper of the Lan Mansion a list, and he will agree to purchase and distribute.
As for the safety issue... If the place where Miss Lan lives is not safe, he will be of no help at seventeen.
Occasionally, when they go out, there will be a team of masters acting as guards. With the current strength of Shi Qi, it can only be regarded as the average level of guards.
The more Shi Qi looked at it, the more he felt that he was just a decoration!
His residence is in the small room next to the gate of the house. As a man, he doesn't have to think about entering the house.
After tidying up the room a bit, Shi Qi lay down on a hard wooden board. Too many things happened today, and he was a little tired.
The sword spirit, who had not spoken for a long time, spoke up: "Boy, now that your dream has come true, do you have a wordless loneliness and emptiness in your heart?"
"Maybe a little bit!"
"Do you feel that this young lady is a little different from what you remember?"
"There is a point, but people will always change, just like me!" Shi Qi shook his head and said, "For me, as long as she is the eldest lady is enough!"
"Now that your first life goal has been achieved, do you want to set another goal?" Chen Hao said, "I'm afraid you will lose motivation and become the doorman, Mr. Lan..."
"You are just a small shrimp in Qi Sea Realm, if your eldest lady is really in danger... you can't help!"
"Master Sword Spirit, don't worry, I will continue to work hard, and I will go to Chuangong Pavilion now!"
During the day, Xinyue had already told Shi Qi the location of Chuan Gong Pavilion, and with the help of the guard badge, Shi Qi quickly found Chuan Gong Pavilion.
Looking at the dark and chilly hole in front of him, and at the three strong red characters of "Chuan Gong Pavilion" shining on the big rock next to him, Seventeen asked in a low voice: "Master Sword Spirit, How could Chuan Gong Pavilion be underground?"
