Chapter 28 Laurana's Identity
It was already late when we got back to the trading house, and Tika was mending clothes by lighting candles.Seeing El coming in, he immediately jumped out of bed and ran all the way into his arms.

"Did you miss me?" Al asked, pinching the little girl's face.

"Yes!" Tika said without hesitation, she held El's waist tightly, raised her head and looked at El with flickering eyes.It wasn't until Al kissed her hard on the cheek that he wouldn't let go.

"Look at what I bought for you?" El put the bag in his hand into Tika's arms.

"Wow, it's an apple! This is very expensive." The little girl opened the bag, complaining, but her eyes were full of happiness.She took out an apple, wiped it clean and held it to Al's mouth.After watching El take the first bite, he put it to his mouth and bit down gently.

"It's so sweet." The little girl smirked.

"Take out the rest of the apples and put them in a cool place, they are easy to break if they are put in a bag." El said calmly.He turned around and sat on the chair, pretending to be nonchalant, secretly observing Tika's movements.He hid the jewelry box at the bottom of the bag, trying to surprise her.

The little girl obediently took out the apples and laid them out, but suddenly her body froze, it seemed that she had found a treasure.She ran back to El with the jewelry box in her hand, with a happy smirk on her face.

"Open it up," Al said.Tika sat in his arms, took a deep breath, and carefully opened the jewelry box.A dainty ring sparkles in red velvet.

"It's too precious... People will snatch it if you take it out." Tika said, but rubbed his little head against El's chest, and couldn't hold back the smile on his face.

"If you don't wear it, I'm afraid people will be snatched away." El held Tika's hand and put the ring on her.The two looked at each other and smiled, Tika raised his head and kissed El's lips actively.

It was another happy night, the girl's body was hot and sweet, and El was immersed in the tenderness that he couldn't extricate himself from.

When I woke up in the morning, there were still tears in the corners of the eyes of the sleeping girl in her arms, and the marks of last night's madness were still on the bare smooth shoulders.Al was satisfied but also a little distressed. If such shameless days continued, if he didn't exercise restraint, he might be squeezed dry.

When he went downstairs to have breakfast, El found that the sight around him was full of strangeness. He had long turned a blind eye to the envy and hatred of the young mercenaries, but today his intuition still felt that something was wrong.

"Hey, boss, the boss is looking for you." Kevin sat next to him with a pot of potatoes, and said cheerfully.Although he was eating, he could still see that he was holding back a smile.El looked suspiciously at George, who was sitting across from him. The little white face had a strange expression, with erratic eyes.

"What's going on?" El asked sullenly.The two shook their heads desperately to show that they knew nothing.

Hastily filling his stomach, El tiptoed to the outside of the living room and looked carefully.Sure enough, the old businessman had a guest, and it was the one he was familiar with.

Laurana, a suspected VIP girl with orange hair, was sitting on the sofa, holding a cup of black tea in her hand, looking at the embarrassed old businessman opposite with a half-smile.

"You didn't study well in the academy, what are you doing when you come back?" Jupiter asked in a cold voice with a sullen face.

"Students can be assigned freely during the period before the final exam, and as top students, the academy will naturally give them special treatment." Laurana didn't care about the attitude of the old businessman, and blew lightly on the foam on the tea , said softly.

"You don't need to worry about the caravan, just focus on your studies."

"Actually, I went out this time only to finish my thesis, and to visit my father on the way home." Laurana sighed: "I didn't expect such a big change for you, father."

"It's all said, don't worry about it!" Jupiter touched his head, and shouted irritably: "Your father, I haven't experienced any big storms in these years? You don't need to worry about it! You just need to focus on Just study!"

"Indeed, it is not difficult to solve the current problem with your father, and I have no intention of intervening." Laurana took a sip of tea calmly, with a very polite but meaningful smile on her face.

"As far as I know, it's mainly a matter of funds now. If it's really difficult to turn around, you can use the dowry you saved for me."

The corner of the old businessman's mouth twitched, and a drop of cold sweat dripped down his bald forehead.

"Although you once swore an oath to your dead mother, you are now in a difficult situation. If it's just for a short turnaround, your dead mother must be considerate of you."

"This... Laurana, actually..." Jupiter smiled dryly, sweating profusely.

Because there was a seemingly reliable young man by my side at that time, so I took your dowry to pay off the debt as soon as I gritted my teeth!The old businessman couldn't say such words anyway.What's more, El didn't accept it, so he found a girl to have sex that night to show his determination.

The girl's tone seemed to be thinking of her father, but looking at her half-smiling eyes, it was clear that she was actually asking a question.I don't know how she learned about this, but to be honest, the old businessman felt that he might never be able to hold his head up again in front of his daughter.

Jupiter coughed uncomfortably, not daring to meet Laurana's eyes, turned his head and saw El standing outside the living room, his eyes lit up, and he waved quickly: "El, come here quickly, let me introduce you , and this is my daughter Laurana."

Eldi walked over and bowed slightly to the old businessman: "Boss...Miss?"

The girl turned her head to look at him, and found the search in his eyes, and a faint smile appeared on her face.

This is the precious daughter that the old businessman wants to introduce to him?The smart and virtuous lady in Kevin George's mouth?Master Powell's beloved genius granddaughter?

Although the girl was sitting on the sofa with her legs together, holding a teacup in her hand and smiling like a standard lady, but in El's eyes, this little girl was clearly a mischievous little devil.

Not to mention that she hid her identity yesterday and used that unknown VIP card to deceive herself.Even at that moment, Al was convinced that she was playing a trick on her father.

Poor Jupiter's old face was flushed from being suppressed, and he had to change the subject with a smiling face.

"El is a partner of our family, and now he is helping me with things in the firm. Although he is young, he is very capable. Laurana, do you want to call him brother?" The old businessman patted El's face. Shoulder laughed.

"It's the first time we meet, Brother El, Ludern is with you." Laurana stood up, raised her skirt with both hands and bowed her head, with an innocent and pure expression on her face, as if she really didn't remember what happened yesterday.

"Good morning, miss." El replied calmly. Since the girl pretended not to know her, he naturally didn't need to expose it, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.In fact, he also had doubts yesterday, but in the end he couldn't connect the image of Jupiter's bald and round face with the delicate girl like a doll.It seems that Laurana was very lucky to have completely inherited her mother's looks.

Perhaps it was because El stared at her for too long, a faint blush appeared on the girl's fair cheeks.Her eyes turned around between the old businessman and El, as if she had realized something.

"Laurana, how long are you going to stay this time?" Jupiter saw El, suddenly remembered the business, and couldn't help but his face darkened: "You may not know that Bart has been released from prison."

"Bart? Blackhand Bart?" Laurana raised her eyebrows in surprise: "Has he been here?"

"I told you not to provoke that kind of person!" Jupiter rubbed his head and said angrily: "It's too dangerous for you to run out now, I'll let El accompany you, and go back to the academy immediately after finishing the work. In the academy at least I don't have to worry about your safety."

Looking at the girl's expression, it was obvious that Bart was not taken seriously, but under the pressure of the old businessman's seriousness, she did not rebelliously raise objections.

"Brother El, I'm going to trouble you."

After the old merchant left, Laurana said to El with folded hands and a smile.

"Miss Laurana, I think you should listen to the boss." El said to her seriously: "I have fought against Bart, that kind of person may suffer once because of underestimating you, but he will definitely learn his lesson, and then Crazy revenge. Although I don't know the grievances between you, as a lady, you shouldn't deal with that kind of person."

"After peeling off the gorgeous shell, I'm just a merchant's daughter." Laurana shook her head and sighed helplessly: "But I still have to thank you for not exposing me on the spot. If my father knows my identity Plan, he might just tie me up and send me back to the academy."

"It's not a bad idea." Er touched his chin and nodded, "Girls should be protected, and it's better for men to do things in public."

"Machismo," Laurana said angrily, pointing to Al's nose.

Seeing El's disapproving look, the girl rolled her eyes, and the corners of her mouth showed cute canine teeth again.She leaned over to El and asked in a low voice, "Do you still want to do the business yesterday? It's really profitable!"

"Going to Hongshiling?" El shook his head: "It's more dangerous outside the city, I'm afraid I won't be able to protect your safety."

"Coward." Laurana snorted contemptuously: "Don't worry about my safety, if you don't even dare to go outside the city, you probably won't be able to deal with Bart's chimpanzee, right?"

El curled his lips. He knew that the girl was being provocative on purpose. If it were a hot-blooded young man like Kevin, the effect would be outstanding.But in his opinion, there is food and drink in the firm, and there are girls warming the bed at night. Is there a happier life than this?It is better to listen to the boss and send this mischievous young lady back to the academy is the right choice.
