However, after seeing Xiaoke's exercise book, Lavshini suddenly realized that the difficulty of teaching lies not in the questions given by Luoya, but in Xiaoke himself.

Rosemary took out the storybook that Roya brought and started reading. She was very free and there was nothing to do in this small village in the wilderness. Roya didn't allow her to do anything dangerous.

Originally, all the cooking could be handed over to the cook, but Luo Ya still insisted on being responsible for the three meals for everyone except Xiao Ke. He couldn't make breakfast and lunch for the girl because it was too much and took too much time. Besides, her physical fitness was strong enough, so Luo Ya didn't need to worry about her eating something she shouldn't.

"Rosemary is not feeling well, so let's make porridge. Xiao Ke can finish whatever she cooks. I forgot to ask Lavshini what she likes to eat."

"She's not picky about food, but she prefers stir-fried dishes and desserts."

Abrana's voice almost made Roya's hand holding the kitchen knife tremble, and he couldn't help but roll his eyes at his boss.

"My dear prince, it is inappropriate for you to come to a place like the kitchen, isn't it?"

Taking out a large pile of ingredients and plates, Roya's attitude did not treat Abrana as a person of noble status at all, and his tone did not hide his disgust at all.

"I just heard that my most capable secretary is a good cook, so I came to take a look. Besides, it's not like I haven't cooked before. Ravshini often ate the meals I cooked when she was a child."

"So she's still alive now?"

As soon as Luo Ya finished speaking, he hurriedly stepped aside to avoid Abrana's flames. It seemed that her tolerance for matters related to Ravshini was even lower.

But this was just a small warning. Abrana looked at him cutting vegetables nonchalantly and suddenly understood something.

"Can you still use a sword?"

“Yes, but I don’t know where I learned it.”

Every strike of the sword was just right, accurate and without hesitation, which meant that Roya's swordsmanship might be quite good, but Abrana had never seen him use a sword.

She didn't ask too many questions, but just walked to Luoya's side to help wash the vegetables. It was almost winter now, but she seemed to have been accustomed to doing these things, which made Luoya look at her with admiration.

"You really can cook?"

"I wasn't born to be a king. More than a decade ago, I still had to think about what to cook for my next meal. Have you forgotten where you learned your cooking skills?"

"No." Luo Ya put the cut potatoes aside, heated the oil in a pan, and then cut the vegetables. "This is what I learned in prison, or most of what I know was learned in prison."

Abrana looked at Luo Ya in astonishment, with a hint of suspicion and confusion, "Have you ever been to prison?"

"He was sentenced to ten years for robbery and aggravated circumstances, but was released early for good behavior."

"Lack of money?"

"Do you think I've ever been short of money?"

Roya continued to cut the meat, and then couldn't help but glance at the room where Rosemary and the others were.

"I stole something once when I was a kid and was beaten by the old man who adopted me. I never dared to do it again. Later, my sister got sick and I had no choice but to do this."

"That Philin?"

"No, it was a girl like me who had no racial characteristics. She was not my biological sister, but I picked her up. I was twelve years old at that time, and she was eight."

As if he was telling a story he had heard from someone else that had nothing to do with him, Roya's tone became softer when he mentioned his sister, and he no longer showed disdain for Abrana.

"She is very smart. If she grows up healthy, she will definitely live a good life. But I have no money. I can't send her to school or cure her illness. Just staying in the hospital for one night will use up all the money I saved from collecting garbage."

So the ending was her death. Abrana didn't say much. She knew it would be better not to provoke Roya at this time, so as not to end the cooperative relationship that they had just established prematurely.

Just listening to Luoya's story, she remembered the fire that burned her parents and home, and remembered Ravshini who followed her at that time for fear of being left behind.

"So Ibrana, even though I don't have a good impression of you, I need to tell you thank you."

This was not a performance that deliberately used a sad story to touch people's hearts. Roya didn't believe that Abramana was a sentimental and kind person. It would be too much of an underestimation to expect her to be moved by just a few stories.

Perhaps because he had been with Rosemary and Xiao Ke for too long, he would always subconsciously think back to the past.

"You're a good brother."

Abrana didn't care whether the story was true or not, she was simply making a statement, which was not difficult to see from Rosemary and Xiao Ke.

"But you're not such a good sister."

Roya said something about Ravshini being in awe of her, and Abrana nodded.

"I'm really not a good person."

From the night when the fire engulfed everything, she had made up her mind to burn her kindness and cowardice along with everything.

Chapter 29: Xiaoke's New Life

"So Rosemary has only known Roya for one day longer than I have?"

Rafshini had completely given up the idea of ​​tutoring Xiao Ke with his homework, because she found that it was even more difficult than fully mastering the power of her bloodline, so she simply decided to talk about other topics.

"Well, I was picked up by Roya."

“I think that should be called robbery.”

"I just picked it up." Rosemary refuted Ravshini. She always felt that there should be a better adjective to describe her encounter with Roya, but she couldn't think of it for the time being.

It was hard to imagine that Roya and Rosemary had known each other for such a short time, which made Ravshini even more puzzled as to why he chose to stay in the Deep Pool for Rosemary.

"So, how did Xiao Ke and Luo Ya know each other?"

Maybe she really wanted to make Luo Ya happy, so Xiao Ke tried very hard to solve the problems, even though her brain was almost burning and she could only solve a few math problems.

"Well... Xiaoke found Luoya while hunting. He couldn't fall asleep at that time, so Xiaoke woke him up. Then he went hunting for Xiaoke and made a lot of delicious food for Xiaoke!"

There was no need to think about the topic while chatting, and Xiao Ke suddenly became much more energetic. The encounter with Luo Ya was something she would never forget in her life.

"Later, Luo Ya took Xiao Ke to fight the bad guys, bought Xiao Ke new clothes and gave him a bath, and also gave Xiao Ke a lot of delicious food, which was much more delicious than dirt and grass!"

"Soil and grass..." Ravshini was stunned for a moment, "Xiao Ke, is this what you ate before?"

"No, sometimes we catch fish and eat fruit, but Xiaoke never catches prey. Luoya said it's because he doesn't have enough patience. Some grasses are sweet, but others make you feel uncomfortable. Soil has no taste and tastes bad, and tree bark is very bitter."

Xiao Ke counted his past experiences on his fingers, such as when he was bitten by a colorful snake while sleeping in the wilderness, or when he wanted to dig honey but was chased and stung and ran into the nest of Originium worms, and had a fight with a super giant Originium worm.

These were just the tip of the iceberg in her past experiences, and they were not considered to be serious little things. After hearing about them, Lavishini and Rosemary felt that this girl was blessed to be alive until now. How could she not die?

"Well, now that I think about it, Xiaoke's life wasn't that good before."

She chewed on tree bark, ate grass roots, and sometimes even ate soil. At that time, she didn't have any other clothes to wear. Even the fact that she could take a bath with hot water was taught to her by Luo Ya.

"But after meeting Luo Ya, Xiao Ke no longer has to do this."

Scratching his head cheerfully, Xiao Ke wagged his tail happily, making people want to touch him.

I didn't notice it before, but now thinking back, after meeting Luo Ya, my life seemed to be divided into two completely different halves. Xiao Ke liked to stay with Luo Ya very much, and even felt that finding the past was not that important, and it was enough to just fight bad guys with Luo Ya.

"Mr. Roya is really a good man."

"Well, Xiao Ke thinks so too. Luo Ya is the best person in the world. It would be even better if Xiao Ke doesn't have to do homework!"

Seeing Xiao Ke's resentful look, Lavshini couldn't help but think of the time when she practiced with her sister Abrana.

As the blood of the red dragon, Ravshini has enormous potential, but she is afraid of her own power and resists using it. In other words, Rosemary's treatment does not require that much control over power, otherwise she is really worried about hurting Rosemary in return.

The fire that devoured her family became a knot in her heart, causing her to instinctively resist and fight her own power, but she was happy to use it to save other people's lives.

"I'm sorry, that's impossible."

As soon as Xiao Ke finished speaking, Rosemary broke the silly dog's fantasy. Everyone could see that Luo Ya really wanted Xiao Ke to try not to be so silly.

"But why does Mr. Luo Ya insist on letting Xiao Ke learn these?"

It's not that Rafushini looks down on Xiaoke, but with Xiaoke's intelligence, it will take time for him to learn all these things. Luo Ya must know this, so he shouldn't be so anxious.

"Maybe he finds her annoying. She doesn't even know her own worth after being sold. Learning a little math could help a little."

"What are you talking about, you stupid cat!"

"Don't you understand, stupid dog? I said you are stupid."

"Damn it, you stupid cat! Stupid cat!"

Seeing that Xiao Ke and Rosemary were arguing more and more fiercely, Lafshini didn't know how to stop the two of them. Why did they suddenly start arguing?

"silly dog!"

"Stupid cat!"

The cat and the dog stared at each other, completely ignoring the existence of Lavishni. In fact, it was normal for Xiao Ke and Rosemary to dislike each other.

Xiao Ke didn't like Rosemary interfering in her and Luo Ya's lives. Since Rosemary came, she could feel that the number of times Luo Ya praised her had significantly decreased, but Luo Ya never made mistakes in what he did, so Xiao Ke would just grin at Rosemary at most.

Rosemary also dislikes Xiaoke, not only because Xiaoke is noisy and stupid, but she also clearly feels that Xiaoke's position in Luoya's heart is actually higher than hers. Even though Xiaoke came first, Xiaomaomao was still a little unhappy.

"You two, if this continues I'm going to sleep somewhere else tonight."

Just when Ravshini was at a loss, Roya's voice defused the impending conflict. He pushed the food cart, his eyes were much sharper than usual, and his face was very serious.

Xiao Ke and Rosemary quickly suppressed their emotions. For safety reasons, Luo Ya basically slept with them every night and told them bedtime stories. Without Luo Ya, the two girls could not sleep well.

Especially Xiao Ke, although her dreams are bizarre when Luo Ya is around, her own consciousness is very clear. Rosemary simply has a dependence on Luo Ya.

"I'm sorry Mr. Roya, I don't know what to do."

"It doesn't matter. They can't actually fight. And you don't have to call me sir. I'm only 22 or 23 years old. Not much older than you."

Ravshini opened her mouth slightly and didn't know what to say for a moment. Not only was he not much older than her, strictly speaking, Luoya was even younger than her. He did look very young, but wasn't his temperament a little too mature?

"Let's clean up and get ready for dinner. I cooked a lot of dishes, and your sister also cooked a few of your favorites."

"My sister did it?"

"Yeah." Luo Ya couldn't help laughing, "She probably hasn't cooked for several years and she broke a pot. She was so angry that she almost set my hair on fire."

Although Luo Ya admitted that his smile was somewhat arrogant and rude, he couldn't help laughing when he saw that Abrana's attitude of having everything under control was ruined by a pot. He even couldn't help but say, "You dare to enter the kitchen with such cooking skills."

After that, he was blocked in the kitchen by Abrana and chased with fire for a long time.

He suddenly realized that it wasn't that difficult to break Abrana's defense. He could try it more tomorrow.

Chapter 30: Embarrassment with Abbrana

The night gradually deepened. Luoya put down the map in his hand and looked at Rosemary lying on his lap. The little cat had no other entertainment except reading comics and telling stories. His biggest hobby was to stick to Luoya.

Xiao Ke was still struggling with those math problems. Her perseverance made Luo Ya almost think that she was dreaming and had not woken up yet. In order not to disturb her enthusiasm, Luo Ya deliberately did not urge her to sleep.

The cat was lying on his lap, and the silly dog ​​was beside the bed. Luo Ya felt that if he could get a mouse, he would probably have a complete set of "Dog, Cat, and Mouse". However, Rosemary and Xiao Ke alone were enough to give him a headache, and another one would be even more terrible.

"Luo Ya, Xiao Ke is done!"

After finishing the last question, Xiao Ke excitedly ran to Luo Ya with the homework book and showed it to him.

"Well, everything is done. Xiao Ke is really amazing. Let's go to bed today."

It would be better if she could get a few more questions right. She only got thirty out of fifty math questions right. This is a big improvement for Xiao Ke. Maybe I can try other teaching methods tomorrow or continue to ask Lavshini to tutor her.

Now working under Abrana, Roya can spend less time with the two of them than before, and he can no longer educate Xiao Ke as simply as commanding her in battle by telling her "stand here", "hit this", "hit me" and so on.

"Hey, Luo Ya, is Xiao Ke not stupid anymore?"

"At least he's not stupid today. Xiao Ke can be quite smart at times."

Even if Luoya didn't say anything, Xiaoke could smell that he was indeed very happy. A strange sense of satisfaction made Xiaoke wag her tail excitedly. She decided to keep working hard tomorrow and make sure Rosemary would never call her a stupid dog again. Only Luoya could call her that, no one else could!

Rosemary rolled her eyes at Xiao Ke. He could even spend three minutes on addition and subtraction of three-digit numbers. This idiot really thought he was so smart.

Luo Ya gently rubbed the two people's heads, feeling that he was destined to be a hard-working person, from the time he picked up Miyue until the few years he went to prison. Now he has to take care of these two girls and worry about their future. It is really not easy.

"Xiao Ke wants to hear the dumpling story!"

"That's called a bedtime story. And keep your voice down, silly dog, and don't disturb others." Rosemary reached out and patted Xiaoke's head gently, but quickly took it back without giving her a chance to fight back.

The tail gently wrapped around Luoya's wrist, and Rosemary's eyes changed from cold to somewhat expectant. Xiao Ke also knew that he was in the wrong, so he obediently covered his mouth and prepared to fight back later.

"Then today I will tell you the story of Snow White and the Seven Calabash Brothers. It is said that once upon a time in a certain country, there was a beautiful Snow White..."

Luo Ya's bedtime stories are basically different from others, but seeing that Rosemary and Xiao Ke are listening with great interest, he thinks that maybe he can write down these stories of his past lives and publish them as a book. If he can make a lot of money, he can also leave a considerable fortune to these two girls.

By the time Roya finished telling the story of how Snow White overthrew the brutal rule of her uncle and stepmother with the help of the seven gourd brothers, and how the seven gourd brothers combined to become the Calabash Brothers and fought the Fire Giant for three days and three nights to win the victory and seal him, Rosemary and Xiao Ke had already fallen asleep, one leaning on his left side with her arms around him, and the other leaning on his right side with her arms around his waist. This posture made him not know how to sleep.

"Well, Luo Ya... don't miss Xiao Ke."
