Sir, this is not how bad women are used.

As Evelyn finished her words, she turned over and held Chu Yan in her arms. Chu Yan's back was leaning against the sofa, and his front was covered with an incomparable warm fragrance, which made people unable to escape even if it was suffocating.

"No, it's about Robert. Is that your father, Lady Afarin?"

"Yes."

Evelyn had a sharp intuition. When she heard Chu Yan mention Roberts, she immediately knew what was going on.

"Did the old man give you any trouble?"

"...About the same. Madam Afarin, after you returned to Black Ice City, didn't you explain the matter of Cornice to him?"

In this study, Chu Yan felt subtly strange when he mentioned Cornitzer's name.

The renovation of the mansion is currently still on the first floor and has not yet reached Evelyn's private space. Many decorations still retain the same appearance as more than half a year ago.

There are several family photos on the desk and in the closet display cabinets.

The locations of those group photos were different, but the composition was the same - Evelyn sat in the middle, while her husband and son stood on both sides behind the chairs, and they couldn't even stand side by side with the mother of the family.

A typical matriarchal family with clear status distinctions.

The photos of Cornitzer span several age groups, including photos of him when he was three years old and photos of him when he was thirteen years old, but there is no warmth or intimacy in the photos, as if they had taken a family photo specifically just to have one photo to fit in the frame.

Perhaps in the past, Evelyn did treat her family as a business.

Just like in school, at a certain stage, there are final exams, and at work, at the end of the year, there is a year-end review, which has nothing to do with personal interests and feelings.

Only Evelyn's embrace of Chu Yan at this moment combined all her tenderness for her husband and son, and the feeling of possession was particularly strong.

"Of course I have something to say. I came back safely, but there are two people missing from my home. I can't just pretend nothing happened, right?

The evidence of the explanation has already been shown to my father, and it is up to him whether he accepts it or not."

The indifference in these words vaguely reveals the vicious and cold-blooded evaluation of Evelyn by outsiders.

Before returning, Evelyn had shown her father various documents, proving that it was her husband who had corrupted "Da Hao", had been hiding the truth for years, and had secretly transferred business and embezzled property.

She also said that her husband's life was ended by her, Evelyn.

Her explanation ended here, and she did not say any more words to persuade the old man. This must be the similarity between Evelyn and Losta, who both disdained to use words to whitewash their feelings.

Evelyn even wanted to help Chu Yan take the blame and directly say that she was the one who killed Connitzer herself. In this way, it would be a completely "private family affair" and other dragon race members would not be able to cause trouble.

But the timeline doesn't match. When Connic died, Evelyn was still in Black Ice City, so she couldn't help Chu Yan with this little trouble.

The more you try to hide some things, the more bizarre they become.

Chu Yan was moved by Evelyn's "tolerance", but things were not okay just because she said so.

"What if the old man wants to do something?"

"Just try to go out less alone in Black Ice City. Even if you wanted to go to the Tower of Babel, my father couldn't do anything to you. Even if there were more Taboos around, that's not a small force."

Judging from the perspective of an adventure group alone, the gang that Chu Yan assembled is extremely powerful and no one is willing to confront them head-on.

"Okay, then I won't bother with it. I don't like shopping alone anyway." Chu Yan accepted this plan.

At this point in the "chat", Evelyn's slender hand fell on Chu Yan's collar button, ready to sign for the magic power she deserved. Expectation and eagerness surged in her green eyes, gradually becoming difficult to suppress.

Chu Yan held the beautiful woman's slender waist and temporarily kept a distance from her to stop her.

Ai Falin was puzzled and didn't understand why she was rejected. She asked doubtfully:

"What's wrong? I didn't get any magic power from you on the way to Black Ice City. According to the deadline Losta set for you, you should have given it to me once every half a month!"

At first, this humiliation that happened every half a month seemed so frequent.

Now, it’s only once every half a month, which seems so long no matter how you look at it, and our relationship has become distant.

"How come you, Madam Afaline, treat this as a military order? This is the reason... Weilin and Tiffany have marked me. If I merge with your magic, they will kill me immediately."

Chu Yan picked up Evelyn's graceful body and put her aside.

The beautiful blonde woman lay down on the sofa, her silk nightgown spread out softly like a snow ball. She looked at Chu Yan lazily, waiting for Chu Yan to come up with his powerful and tough explanation.

"It's these two marks. After you left yesterday, Tiffany almost figured out everything about us..."

Chu Yan felt a headache just thinking about it, and when the matter came up, he explained the cause and effect of the mark.

Evelyn's fingertips touched the two lip prints, and the magical glow belonging to the two women flashed faintly.

270

She really didn't expect that Weilin and Tiffany would monitor the kid so strictly in such a place!

"You tried so hard to hide it yesterday, and there were a lot of conversations and bargaining in Losta's study. I didn't expect them to be so unreasonable and use magic to interrogate you...

But if that's the case, it's okay for you to just call me mom from now on, right in front of them!"

"..."

That's looking for death!

However, now that he has been stamped twice, Chu Yan is a little scared, especially since he will have to replenish the magic of the forbidden ones frequently in the future.

The two mothers said that they didn't care whether he found girls, but every time he performed magic, the mothers received a "signal". How much psychological pressure must that be!

"As for this kind of protective mark, it will work as long as it doesn't come into direct contact with other magic power. After you went to the Tower of Babel, you fought with monsters several times, so after being attacked by monsters twice, this mark will quickly consume your magic power.

I'll just find a few magic material bags later."

Evelyn wanted to deliberately provoke Weilin, but although this provocation was satisfying, it would affect her and Chu Yan's time alone at the moment.

Losing the big for the small is not worth it.

She stretched out her hand and gently pulled Chu Yan closer, her beautiful and charming face was almost crushed by Chu Yan's magic circuit.

Another mark was imposed on him, as if it was a demonstration against Weilin and the others. One mark was not enough, and Aifalin continued to stamp Chu Yan.

Outside the door, Laubus came over. The door was locked, so he could only knock.

"Afaline, what exactly are your plans for the death of my grandson Cornice?"

Chu Yan was in a panic and was about to leave, but Evelyn didn't take it seriously at all. She comforted Chu Yan and signaled that everything should continue.

The blonde woman bit him gently and took the time to respond:

"I don't have any plans. It was you, father, who was in charge of Connitzer's storage of property for the Dead Sea nobles, and you also helped my late husband conceal such stupid things. You both spoiled and indulged him, so why is there such a big gap?"

Laubus was dissatisfied with this attitude and asked:

"So that's it? You have to look at the owner before beating the dog. They killed your husband and son, and you don't have any anger at all? Where is your dignity and face? Your strength should be no less than Losta's now!"

While Ai Falin carefully restrained Chu Yan with the magic material bag, she said coldly and impatiently:

“In terms of strength, I can definitely take on Losta... but I’m already taking revenge and taking away her precious things~!

If you want to do extra work, do it yourself. I will only care about your life or death, but I won’t care how much loss you suffer.”

After all, Evelyn herself was busy suffering a huge loss, so she had no time to care about anything else.

Chapter 11: The Brave Fights the Mother Dragon

Laubus kept chattering outside the door for a long time, but finally left.

He couldn't understand that his daughter already had amazing strength that was strong enough. According to the news from Noah Academy, Evelyn was now another S-level Black Ice Dragon. Her innate magic had reached the complete form of an ancient dragon, not just part of the ancient dragon's body.

Her magic power is even strong enough to transmit her aura to the Sea of ​​Void.

She was a rival of Losta in her early years, and yet she remained indifferent despite suffering such a great humiliation!

Laubus couldn't figure it out, but he was melancholy for a while and would not choose to do anything "impulsive".

The greatest gift that blood bestows on the Black Ice Dragonborn is calm and rational thinking.

He saw very clearly the attitudes of the other elders during the morning meeting. It was clear that they no longer took Cornice seriously.

In front of everyone in Black Ice City, Losta took Chu Yan back to the family mansion, which was actually a silent message:

The death of Cornice was the result of an internal fight among the younger generations of the Black Ice Dragon Clan. It was a duel of life and death in which they were not as skilled as their opponents. Let's just forget about it and don't escalate the conflict to the Longyan Clan.

All parties have this attitude, what can Laubs do?

Even if he went to confront Losta in a rage, he would only be bringing humiliation upon himself.

Laubus, who always stood straight, walked out of his daughter's private residence, his back unconsciously bent with fatigue.

His eyes fell on the pile of garbage that the servants had cleared out.

Some small items that were very valuable when they were purchased have now become part of the waste pile. Among them, one piece of "garbage" is particularly eye-catching. It is a family photo that was originally hung in the restaurant on the first floor.

The large group photo included the main and side branches of the family, the older and younger generations, and of course the family of three that Evelyn had previously formed.

"Why were all the group photos cleared out? Was this what Evelyn meant?"

Laubus was a little angry. If this was the servant's negligence, it would be a serious fault!

"It was Madam Afaline who ordered it herself..." The maid responded tactfully and cautiously. She said tactfully, "Perhaps Madam Afaline has spare parts for the group photo, ready to be framed in a newly ordered frame."

When Evelyn was young, she was taught that "strength is the basis of all words". When one has no strength, family affection cannot be the prerequisite for equal dialogue. This strict education ran through her early life.

Evelyn grew up very quickly, and she put into practice the education passed down by her parents, becoming authoritarian and domineering. If the elders placed decorations in her house without permission, she would throw them away and demolish them in front of them without showing much mercy.

Even if Laubs put the photo back, it would definitely be used again later.

271

Throw away again.

"Fine......"

He sighed, didn't ask any more questions, and left.

*

In the study.

From the sofa to the desk where Chu Yan and Evelyn were negotiating, bags of magic materials could be seen scattered on the ground every few meters.

Two of the heavy material bags were hung on a family photo of three people, with rich magic dripping through them, blurring the portraits.

This was not done by Chu Yan, but was caused by Evelyn throwing it aside. As so many material bags were consumed, it was inevitable that a few of them would be thrown aside.

It's really uncivilized and unhygienic...

"Mrs. Afaline, is this all right with the old gentleman?"

Chu Yan's center of gravity was on the velvet chair behind him, while Evelyn lay on the desk contentedly and comfortably.

This was the first time she had used the spacious desk for other purposes, and as she was preparing to replace her furniture, she suddenly developed an appreciation for the desk and chairs and considered keeping them.

The blonde beauty slowly raised her waist, the lingering blush on her cheeks better than the best makeup. She sat up on the desk, crossing her plump, round white legs.

Because of the height difference between the table and the chair, her jade feet could just rest on Chu Yan's chest.

"Yes, what else can I do? In my family, I am the one who holds the final say. It is not up to others to tell me whether I should seek revenge or not!"

"......" Monthly fee group 694936135 Chu Yan was silent and scratched his head.

Evelyn's style of doing things is exactly like the classic villain template of acting on her own. Then one day, she is deserted by her friends and relatives and becomes cannon fodder in the hands of heroes and warriors, forming a classic story of kingly way.

Dragon Quest.

Perhaps the most abnormal and bizarre thing was Evelyn's gentleness towards him, Chu Yan.

But no matter how bad her temper was, or how cold her attitude towards her family was, Chu Yan could feel real warmth from her soft heart.

Perhaps he is the only one who can control Evelyn and stop her from committing evil deeds. Thinking of this, Chu Yan suddenly felt that the burden on his shoulders became much heavier.

Chu Yan held the beautiful woman's jade feet in his arms. His silent gesture of goodwill was responded to by the blonde woman's charming smile.

"What's wrong? I feel like you have something to say?" she asked.

"I do feel a little emotional, but I can't tell what it is... By the way, now that we are back in Black Ice City, are you going to stay and take care of family affairs?"

Given Evelyn's status, it is impossible for her to be completely idle in the clan. She must have responsibilities in some position.

Since Losta had tied her up before, it was natural that Losta had shared that part of the responsibility, otherwise it would be a bit unreasonable.

Now that Evelyn has returned to Black Ice City, it is difficult for her to leave at will, just like Chu Yan's red-haired mommy can't move around freely.

Ai Falin nodded gently, and her white jade feet replaced her palms, and gently rubbed Chu Yan's cheek, and then said:

“Yes, but Losta has been helping me share the burden for so long, it doesn’t hurt to share a little more. If you want, I can go to the Tower of Babel to find you later!
