Guild Boss's Ambition

"Are you using red envelope beans to comfort yourself?"

"Are you going to ruin the atmosphere?"

"Isn't this all because you insisted on saying something sentimental, Xiaolan?"

"Okay, okay, I'll be frank." Xiao Lan shouted unhappily, "If we are suffering from love, we have to be braver to love, and love more warmly and more firmly, because only love can heal the wounds of love. But in the current situation, it is a bit difficult for Annie to take the initiative to love, so we have to let her feel the love in return."

I tried hard to understand what Xiao Lan said, and immediately came to a surprising conclusion!

"Xiao Lan, do you want to find a boyfriend for Senior Annie?"

Hearing this, Xiao Lan analyzed seriously, "To be precise, I want her to have a relationship. And according to my initial observation, Annie doesn't seem to have any special interest in boys. On the contrary, we girls can easily win Annie's favor. For example, when Annie got drunk last time, she almost killed me, a girl..."

"Xiao Lan, you mean that Senior Annie is... Lily?"

At that moment, I was so surprised that I couldn't close my mouth.

Xiao Lan half-closed her eyes and pierced my body with an oppressive gaze: "Don't worry too much about this. I will carefully select the person who can treat Annie. During this period of time, Gu Shan, you don't have to do anything unnecessary."

"Oh! OK."

I agreed enthusiastically, but was thoughtful in my heart.

……

……

60. Discovery (Annie)

(Anne Princeton)

tick...

tick...

The sound of the clock becomes clearer as people regain consciousness, and people disappear in the sound of the metal.

Perhaps, we shouldn't think too much about these unsolvable propositions.

But thinking is a habit.

There is no way for a half-elf to empty his mind.

We think all the time and everywhere.

Just like a clock, as long as it is wound up, it will keep thinking unless it breaks down.

tick...

tick...

tick...

A half-elf's thoughts cannot be stopped even when he is dreaming.

Unlike humans, we half-elves can remember the contents of every dream.

I dream about her every night.

I dreamed that she fell in love with him, dreamed that she was happy and laughed happily.

I also dreamed that she died with him, leaving me alone.

Painful?

That’s not the case.

But it's very scary.

What is terrible is the loss of faith in humanity, and the sadness of no longer being able to believe that friendship between each other can have a happy ending.

"Death is just a part of life, there is no need to grieve over it."

"She must have died with a smile on her face, dying for her children and husband."

A voice emerged in my heart, a voice that refuted my thoughts, and it fought fiercely with it, like a quarrel between skeptics and idealists, like thousands of stupid monkeys jointly studying the proposition of the sun and the moon of bananas, and the final result was often a result of no result, just a waste of time, just making myself feel troubled in vain.

So I have to wake up and do a little reading.

The more difficult the book, the better, and the books with correct answers are even better.

So recently I have fallen in love with the Lizardmen's geometry, at least my IQ is not high enough to find any problems with it.

I am very glad that I am not as smart as Bai Ye. It is not difficult to see that her troubles are no less than mine.

That's why she seldom drinks, and that's why she really wants to drink.

giggle!

After a quick wash and reading two or three pages of boring trigonometry, someone knocked on my heart early in the morning.

If I remember the schedule correctly, today should be Gushan's day off.

Of course, it is possible that Xiao Lan might come to see me at this time.

But my intuition told me it would be Gu Shan.

"come in."

"Excuse me, Senior Annie."

If you guess correctly, give yourself one point.

I silently made a silly joke in my heart and gave her a smile when she came to visit me.

However, today Gu Shan was rarely smiling.

And she looked very wrong at work yesterday.

Maybe it was my affairs that bothered her.

This is exactly why I have been hiding my condition.

The most terrifying thing about being sick is not the harm it causes to the patient's body, but the impact it will have on other people around him.

"Is there anything I can help you with? Gushan." I asked the little girl.

"I……"

The girl with twin ponytails looked around uncomfortably for a while, and replied in a buzzing voice: "Is it impossible for me to come to see you, Senior Annie, if I don't have anything special? Senior, do you really not want to see me that much?"

Yes.

When I heard the knock on the door, my whole body sent out a message of disgust.

However, reason told me not to hurt the little girl in front of me.

So, I put on a fake smile and lied, "Of course not. If it's Gu Shan, you can come to me anytime. I don't have anything special to do every morning anyway. It would be nice to have someone to chat with me."

Gu Shan pouted and looked at me suspiciously, moving the chair on the dressing table and sitting next to me.

After sitting down, the little girl who usually chattered nonstop strangely did not speak.

She just held her chin and stared at my face.

After a while, I finally felt uncomfortable with her stare and couldn't help but speak first.

"What's wrong? Gu Shan."

The little girl frowned in distress and said, "To be honest, I don't know what to say to you now."

No topic? Isn't that just right?

I smiled and said, "If you feel bored, Gu Shan doesn't have to force himself to stay with me."

“Hmm—”

Suddenly, Gu Shan seemed to be fighting against something, his eyes widened, and he asked as hard as a lit firecracker: "Senior, what animal do you like most? Cats or dogs? Where is the countryside? Do you have any special hobbies or interests? What type of music do you like? Do you have the habit of reading novels? Do you prefer sweet or salty food? Do you like the sea or the mountains?"

"Are these questions for socializing?" I couldn't help but be speechless.

Gu Shan, however, looked very serious.

"No! I just want to know everything about you, Senior. I share all the happy things with you, but you don't tell us anything. Don't you think you are being cunning and distant?"

I smiled bitterly and said, "Gu Shan, don't you know my situation?"

Gu Shan snorted in a pretentious manner and turned his face away: "Cunning and selfish is cunning and selfish, there is no need to have so many excuses. No matter how afraid of snakes I am, I went to Miss Doris to have her fortune told a while ago, and I still remember that you also pushed me back then! Now that we are in each other's shoes, it is only a courtesy for me to appear beside you shamelessly! It just happens!"

What else can I say in the face of well-intentioned concern?

"Thank you so much."

"Woo..."

Although he received my thanks, Gu Shan did not smile with joy.

The little girl gritted her teeth and grasped the armrest of the chair, unwillingly saying, "Senior Annie, you have to get better no matter what. My father told me when I was a child that every encounter between people is a blessing earned through thousands of lifetimes. I don't want you to be sad and in pain because of me. I don't want you to force yourself to smile."

"Senior, if you don't want to smile, then don't smile, okay?"

The little girl's clear voice penetrated my heart and shattered my mask in one fell swoop.

Complying with her request, I put away my fake smile and lowered my gentle eyes.

I don’t know what kind of expression I have at this moment…

But that wouldn't look good...

It’s definitely not on the good side…

After seeing my true face, Gu Shan was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Senior, are you really happy now?"

"It's not that I'm unhappy, it's just that I have a sense of autumn."

"Autumn?"

Hearing the word "autumn", Gu Shan naturally revealed a warm smile: "Although there will be a lot of troublesome leaves falling on the door of the stone house in autumn, and we have to clean them up every day, the autumn in our Mopolis City is very dry and cool. It doesn't rain most of the time. During the holidays, we can go out without worrying about bringing an umbrella or sweating in the sun──"

"Does Gushan like autumn?"

"Yes! Of the four seasons, I like autumn best. Although it is short, the days are the most fulfilling!"

Whenever she talks about her hobbies, Gu Shan's expression becomes more vivid. She can easily laugh happily and feel satisfied. Is it because the world she sees is different from mine? Or is it because the person who sees the world is different?

Suddenly, the smiling Gu Shan opened his eyes wide with curiosity and stared at my face.

What's wrong?

She asked me, "Senior Annie, are you faking a smile now?"

Fake smile?

When I realized that the corners of my mouth were naturally raised, I felt a surge of fear in my heart, and the smile instantly disappeared.

Nausea.

Disgusting!

A nauseous feeling grew in my stomach.

That was a violent reaction that had never occurred before.

I feel cold...

My palms are sweating...

My head hurts...

My body was sending me the biggest warning.

"It" is punishing "me" for trying to get rid of "it"!

"Senior Annie?"

The girl's worried voice reached my ears.

Unfortunately, the pain made me unable to speak.

"Senior Annie? What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Her small hand touched my back in panic, and it was like a huge mountain pressing down on me. My whole body was shocked, and I could not help but push her hand away, push her away, push her away, push her kindness away, and respond to her concern in the coldest voice: "I'm sorry, I feel a little dizzy, please leave me alone for a while, and please close the door when you leave."

The imperative tone is very effective.

Gu Shan immediately stepped back. She whispered a few words that were unclear and then left my room.
