"That's very suspicious, Ceylon."
Xilan secretly wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a smile: "Don't worry, don't worry, Teacher, don't you want to talk to me about something important? The tea is boiling now, we can go out and talk."
"Yeah, that's right." Miss White Wolf nodded and shook the snack bag, "Then I'll take it out."
"Yeah." Ceylon sat on the bed, with his hands behind his back, pressing down the mysterious book, and watched Miss White Wolf leave with a smile.
As soon as the white wolf left, she quickly lifted the pillow, stuffed the book underneath, picked up the quilt, and pressed it hard on the pillow.
Phew, Ceylon's image in the teacher's mind must be perfect and cannot be ruined by such things.
She patted her chest, let out a long breath, then straightened her clothes a little, cleared her throat, and walked confidently towards the living room.
Miss White Wolf sat on the sofa, her chin on her right hand, a black chocolate pocky in her mouth, her eyes melancholy, thinking about how to tell Ceylon about that matter.
After Miss Ceylon brewed the hot black tea, she placed the blue and white porcelain cup on the tea table in front of Miss Bailang, then gently patted Bailang's arm, squinted her eyes, and said sweetly and attentively: "Teacher, teacher, have some tea~"
Her favorite drink is black tea, and her favorite person is Miss Olicia. Inviting her to drink the black tea she has carefully prepared is like adding two of the greatest joys together, which is simply wonderful.
Miss White Wolf came back to her senses, lowered her head and sniffed the tea, praising: "Ceylon's craftsmanship is getting better and better."
Ceylon twisted his body happily and changed his sitting position: "I have been doing my homework. By the way, teacher, what exactly do you want to talk about?"
White Wolf looked at the white mist rising from the teacup, pondered for a moment, and told Ceylon the truth:
"This matter is related to the decree of the former emperor of the Ursus Empire..."
After he finished speaking, Xilan understood the situation and said thoughtfully, "That is to say, Bingshi must recommend someone. The reason you hesitated is because this person might be dangerous?"
"Yes."
"Teacher, let me do it. This little bit of danger is really nothing. Many countries also have similar preferential treatment systems for researchers. I think you are hesitant because you are too worried about us. You don't need to be like this at all."
Miss White Wolf shook her head and said in great distress: "Ceylon and Ursus are different from other countries. The north where we are is relatively stable due to its special geographical location. But the central and southern parts of the empire are different. The contradictions between the infected and the poor are constantly intensifying, and the crisis of war may occur at any time. Once an accident occurs, the researchers registered by the empire may be regarded as strategic resources."
"Teacher, thank you for thinking so much about us." Ceylon gently held Miss White Wolf's hand. "I can feel that you are trying your best to protect us, but in fact, the situation in many places is similar. You can't go against the whole world."
"Take Victoria, where I study, for example. The royal disputes are unresolved. Isn't it possible that war could break out at any time? In the event of war, the noble warlords in Victoria will also seek the support of researchers."
"It has always been like this. Almost all of the veteran experts in the academic world have experienced times of war and unrest. Even in times of peace, students often die during Originium studies. Originium research can also be life-threatening. If we were afraid, we wouldn't have chosen this path from the beginning."
"Besides, I am the daughter of the mayor of Xiosta. Xiosta is a well-known independent city-state with some connections to Colombia. I have some political value. If you choose me, it will be much safer than Eyjafjalla and Miss Skyfire."
The more Ceylon spoke, the more powerful he became, and the more certain his tone became. Miss White Wolf sat beside him, listening blankly. She always played the role of a teacher in front of others, but this time she became the student being educated.
When Miss White Wolf came to her senses, she found that Miss Ceylon was very close to her. She was probably approaching her slowly with the help of some kind of confident aura while talking.
"The most important thing is." Xilan leaned forward and said in a gentle but unquestionable tone, "Teacher, you have no choice, right? Bingshi can't provoke the emperor of the empire. You need someone to share some of the pressure."
"So, leave it to me. I will keep this secret and work with you to protect everyone in the institute. If you agree, just nod your head."
When Ceylon began to speak, Miss White Wolf was forced to lean back slowly. The other party's intensive words made her extremely nervous and she had no time to care about anything else, so that she suddenly couldn't support herself and fell on the armrest of the sofa.
She leaned on the armrest of the sofa and nodded blankly.
Seeing this, Ceylon leaned down naturally. She did not use the top-down posture, but chose a more clever sideways position. In this way, she could maintain absolute dominant control while preventing the other party from directly sensing the danger, thus continuing the contact between the two.
In fact, even if Ceylon did something more outrageous, Miss White Wolf would probably not notice it. Since what she promised was extremely important to the latter, Miss White Wolf was so focused on business at the moment that she had ignored her physical disadvantage.
Just when Ceylon was in a good mood and enjoying the good time, a gray-haired, casually dressed, sharp-eyed man named Filin pushed open the door of Bingshi.
As soon as she entered Bingshi, Miss Hei walked straight towards Ceylon's dormitory. The reason why she didn't tell Ceylon that she was back was to give him a surprise.
When passing by Longmen, she specially bought a small gift for Ceylon. When she thought of the happy look on the young lady's face after receiving the gift, the corners of her mouth could not help but rise slightly.
The light in the eldest lady's room was on.
Very good, this means that the other party is not in the research institute. If the young lady is in the research institute, it would be inconvenient for her to disturb her and she can only be patient for a while.
Hei carried the gift box and walked briskly and silently to the door of Ceylon's room. It was not that she intended to lower the sound of her footsteps, but the nature of her job made her develop the habit of walking quietly.
She vaguely heard her eldest daughter talking to someone.
That's strange, An An thought secretly, the eldest lady's room is located in a remote area, and except for her, usually no one comes here. Is it such a coincidence today?
She walked to the door and gently pressed the doorknob. The door immediately opened a crack, which made her realize that the door was not locked. Just as she was about to knock on the door and go in, she suddenly caught a glimpse of something through the crack.
Chapter 2023 My Sister Grows Up 09-04-12 20:02:
There are no words to describe the shock in Hei's heart.
She saw Ceylon leaning on the white-haired Miss Rupert in an absolutely active posture. The latter's face could not be seen, but from the long, graceful legs exposed outside the sofa, it could be guessed that it was Miss Olivia.
Ceylon lowered his head slightly and pressed it against Miss Olisia's neck. After a moment, he raised his head again, and it was unclear whether he kissed her or took a breath.
Judging from the situation, Hei felt that there was a 90% chance that they kissed.
Although she had never experienced it herself, she was no fool and could certainly tell what was happening in the room.
At this time, Ceylon changed his posture and knelt with one leg between the other two long legs. It was inconvenient for Miss Hei to watch any further, so she gently released the door handle, slowly stepped back a few steps, and walked silently into the night.
She didn't know how she should feel.
Holding the gift for Ceylon in her hand, she walked confusedly and aimlessly in the cold night, with a thin mist of sadness shrouding her heart.
The affection that had been cultivated since childhood had made her treat Ceylon as her own sister. Now that she saw her obsessed with another person, she would be lying if she didn't feel sad, but at the same time, she felt a little relieved.
In fact, she had expected this situation to happen. As early as when she went to Xiosta with Miss Olicia, she had vaguely seen the clues.
She just didn't expect that the situation would develop so quickly. In less than two months since the last trip to Xiosta, Ceylon had achieved this level.
It seems that the eldest lady is much more mature than she imagined. She is no longer the little girl following behind her, but a real adult who can have a private life.
But, liking Miss Olicia is a bit...
She subconsciously still hoped that Ceylan could partner with a reliable man, and when they had children in the future, she could try to be a good aunt and take care of Ceylan's children as if they were her own.
Now it seems that most of the previous ideas have gone down the drain.
It seems that Ceylon cannot be blamed. After all, she herself knows Miss Olivia and knows that Miss Rupert is attractive in all aspects.
Needless to say, she is very capable. She witnessed with her own eyes how Olicia built a second-rate company built on an abandoned mining area and gradually developed it to its current level.
There is no doubt about his knowledge. She has seen him giving lectures to the eldest lady. Although she didn't understand, the admiration in the eldest lady's eyes said it all.
Her personal strength is amazing. When they first met, she had a hunch that the other party could fight her to a draw. However, after experiencing the Xiosta volcano exploration incident and hearing about Olicia's deeds in Victoria, she speculated that she could not defeat the other party in a frontal battlefield.
His character was impeccable as well. As an Ursus noble, he never put on airs and spoke softly to everyone. When he first came to Bingshi, he planned to keep a cold face and monitor the other party, but before he knew it, he had a harmonious relationship with the other party and could chat and drink tea together in less than half a month.
What she did could convince people. The Ursus Empire persecuted the infected, and the nobles were the main executioners, but Olicia used her noble status to pull the infected into the company for shelter. She has always been a person who doesn't want to meddle in other people's business, and she came to Icestone only for Ceylon, but this did not prevent her from respecting Miss Olicia's actions.
Then in terms of appearance... well, she is very pretty, really pretty. I felt it very clearly the last time I went to Xiosta. What she thinks about most is how to block the sight of passers-by. Miss Olicia always dresses very low-key, so she won't be particularly stunning at first glance, but the more you look at her, the more beautiful she looks. There is no reason for Ceylon not to like her.
……
As she was thinking, Hei suddenly froze in place. She realized that apart from being unable to have children, she couldn't think of any reason not to let Ceylon pursue Olisia.
Even though she didn't know Miss Olicia very well, she would unconsciously develop a liking for her. What about Ceylon, who was attracted to her from all angles such as her knowledge and ability?
Miss Ceylon is lucky to meet such a person, and the other party has already done that, it is impossible to stop him.
As Ceylon's sister, what she really needs to do now is to fully support her, first keep Ceylon's secret with the mayor, and then secretly help Ceylon find a solution.
Recalling the scene he just saw, Hei's face became strange. The eldest lady was usually gentle and elegant, but she must have learned bad things from Victoria and could do such shameful things.
She looked at the gift in her hand and shook her head.
Let’s talk about the gift later. We can’t destroy the young lady’s achievements now. It would be best if she lets Olicia stay in the room overnight.
Hmm... I also have the key to Ceylon's room. Do you want to go over and lock the door from the outside?
forget it.
Let's see how Ceylon handles it first. If the situation is not good, I will find a way to help. I will just keep an eye on it from a distance to see if Miss Olisia will leave tonight.
……
In Ceylon's room.
Miss White Wolf was holding a teacup, sipping the fragrant black tea.
In fact, Miss White Wolf woke up as soon as Hei left, and Ceylon easily let go of her suppression of White Wolf in order to maintain her character.
It can be said that what Miss Hei saw was exactly the most charming and most misleading part of the entire interaction.
Such a shameful misunderstanding was something Miss Ceylon absolutely did not want to see, but it was precisely this misunderstanding that made Hei completely give up all thoughts of stopping it or reporting it to the mayor.
At this moment, Miss White Wolf put down her teacup and said with emotion: "Ceylon, I will always remember everything you did for Bingshi."
Ceylon stared at the white wolf with resentful eyes and shook his head: "Ceylon has been doing things for you from the beginning to the end, because you are my teacher."
Miss White Wolf scratched her head embarrassedly: "Well, thank you, thank you Ceylon."
"You're not sincere enough. You need to praise me."
"Praise you?"
"Yes, give me some compliments to make me happy."
"Well." Miss White Wolf hesitated for a moment and said seriously, "Ceylon, you are actually a good girl."
Miss Ceylon's face darkened: "No nice guy cards allowed."
"What do you want me to say?"
"Say something nice, something more specific."
Miss White Wolf thought for a moment, and her face suddenly turned red: "Those are too corny, I can't say them."
Ceylon sighed helplessly.
"That's all." She said, her eyes suddenly brightened, "Why don't we take some practical action? I may need your help in my room in the future. It's just the right time for me to help you and you to help me."
"What favor? Can't you do it in my office?"
"Oh, that's inconvenient. Just tell me whether you agree or not?"
"Okay then. I agree."
Chapter 2023 Test 09-05-12 00:03:
The time when Miss Olicia left was completely beyond Hei's expectations. She thought that she would stay in Ceylon's room for at least half an hour. Unexpectedly, after she had only been following her for a short while, Miss Olicia walked out the door and went straight to the research institute.
This seemed very unusual to Hei, who had been dealing with special matters for many years and was knowledgeable in all aspects.
what happened?
Is it over so soon?
No, the clothes looked very tidy, not messy at all, and the time was short, so the situation was obvious - nothing happened.
Could it be that I was thinking the wrong thing, and that was not the case at all? Ceylon was just communicating normally with Olicia, but they were just a little more intimate.
It's impossible, impossible. Unless you are stupid, you will not believe that there is nothing innocent between them.
I'm afraid there's a conflict. That would be terrible.
After seeing Miss White Wolf walking away, Hei quietly left the hiding corner, came to the door of Ceylon's room and knocked.
"Miss Olivia?" Ceylon shouted in surprise, and hurried over to open the door.
Hei coughed, "It's me, Miss."
Xilan opened the door, his eyes flickering with joy and panic: "Sister Hei, when did you come back? I didn't hear from you."
"I just came back." Hei said as if nothing had happened, "I seemed to see Miss Olicia leaving from here."
Ceylon guessed from Hei's words that the other party could not have seen anything, so he relaxed: "Miss Olicia came here to discuss work. When you knocked on the door, I thought Miss Olicia remembered something and forgot to say it, so she turned back halfway."
"Work?"
"Work!"
As he spoke, Ceylon quickly took away the cup that Bailang had used before and replaced it with a new cup to make tea for Hei.
Miss Hei was concentrating on thinking. She could certainly see that Ceylon was covering up something and the other party obviously didn't want to make this matter clear to her.
In a sense, Ceylon did nothing wrong. Although she was Ceylon's sister, she also took orders from Mayor Hermann. If she knew about this kind of thing, she would have to consider the overall situation and report it to the mayor truthfully.
Mayor Hermann is happy to see Ceylon and Miss Olicia have a close relationship, but if this close relationship reaches the point of crossing the line, the mayor's attitude becomes unknown.
She truly regards Ceylon as her own sister. When it comes to personal happiness, she will definitely stand on Ceylon's side, but this cannot be said openly. She cannot openly disobey the mayor.
After a brief thought, Hei immediately came to the conclusion that in order to help the young lady legally and compliantly, she must remain in an 'uninformed' state, constantly observe and test under this premise, and then make decisions carefully.
