Chapter 387 Token
Koshiro, wearing thin-framed glasses,
Hearing this request,
His expression froze.
I was stunned for a moment,
Then he asked with a puzzled look on his face:
"why?"
“Because Kuina is crying!
She was crying so sadly!"
Lin En's words were like thunder, exploding in this quiet room.
Everyone present felt as if struck by lightning, and their bodies trembled violently.
And outside the door, Kuina's eyes were already red and moist, and tears as big as beans kept falling down her fair cheeks.
She couldn't help but raise her hands and cover her mouth to prevent herself from whimpering.
Tears had wet her palms.
Tears blurred her eyes.
The surrounding environment seemed to be lost and became blank, leaving only Lynn's words echoing in her ears for a long time.
Lin En was obviously not her father, but he said such serious words for her.
……
inside the house.
Koshiro's hand holding the teacup also trembled because of Lin En's words.
The hot tea spilled on his hands, but his face was frozen, without any expression.
It was not until a long time had passed that Koshiro took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, and then put down the teacup.
With a slightly bitter smile on his face, he said: “Although what I said is cruel, this is the truth of this world.
I'm saying this now, even though it may make people sad.
But it’s better than her realizing it only after experiencing it herself.
I also don't want to see the sadness she will show when that time comes, and the regret she will have for sticking to kendo.
I think it's time.
Kuina will definitely be in more pain than she is now, so it is a good thing to give up early..."
"Oh!"
Before Koshiro could finish his words, the door was suddenly pushed open.
An 11-year-old girl with a strong look on her face.
She walked in with a determined look.
And because Guina suddenly pushed open the door, Filo fell straight to the ground.
Philo, who was lying on the ground, scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and then whispered: "Sorry, we didn't mean to eavesdrop."
Kuina: I did it on purpose!
When Koshiro saw Kuina push open the door and rush in, his eyes were all on her.
At this time, Kuina's face was covered with wet tear marks, obviously she had just cried not long ago.
It seems that what Lin En said was right, his daughter Kuina really cried!
Seeing Kuina with tears on her face.
Koshiro also showed a hint of pity in his heart.
After all, they are blood relatives, and cannot be separated by ancestral rules.
"Kuina, I...
Did you hear what we said just now?"
Koshiro wanted to say something to comfort her, but in the end he couldn't.
After all, he was telling the truth.
This is what our ancestors believed.
He thought so too.
"Um!
I heard every word of it!"
"Dad, I've made up my mind!
I want to be a Marine!
I will prove it to you, even if it's a girl!
It is also possible to become stronger!"
Who says women are inferior to men!
Lin En's words have always deeply touched Guina's heart!
This encouraged his fragile heart which had become vulnerable due to his father's pessimism!
She wants to become stronger!
Just like Miss Mulan!
As long as I work hard, I will become such a dazzling existence sooner or later!
The determination expressed in Kuina's eyes completely stunned Koshiro.
Because she had never seen Kuina show such an expression!
Such a beautiful pair of eyes!
He saw a person in Kuina's eyes!
That man is his father!
His father also had such eyes when he was fighting!
The eyes that should have belonged to a father now appear on Kuina!
"Perhaps, we are all wrong..."
Koshiro couldn't help but smile bitterly.
When someone has that look in her eyes, it means nothing can stand in her way!
"I understand, Kuina.
I agreed.
However, I hope you won't slack off in the future.
After all, if it is just a momentary enthusiasm, it will cool down sooner or later with the passage of time.
I will send Sauron to the appointment in the future. I hope you will not let me misjudge you!"
It was not until Kuina showed her a fatherly look that Koshiro actually showed some encouragement to Kuina, which was rare.
“That’s…that’s great!
Dad, I will prove myself to you!"
Kuina raised her arms, which were as white and tender as lotus roots, and wiped the tears from her eyes.
She was already extremely excited.
Kuina's knot was also untied at this moment!
She won't fall to her death on the stairs again...
Koshiro couldn't help laughing up to the sky and said:
"Mr. Lin, I will safely entrust Kuina to you."
Judging from Lin En’s performance just now and the justice he had executed on the sea in the past.
Now that Koshiro has recognized him, he can rest assured to marry his loli daughter to Lin En!
Ahem... wrong number.
It was handed over to Lin En for training!
……
Lin En began to discuss the specific details of the agreement with Koshiro in detail.
After the conversation, Koshiro threw a green jade pendant into the sky.
Then Koshiro's hand moved.
I saw him quickly put one hand on the sword hanging beside him and his palm touched the hilt.
Suddenly.
There was a flash of white light.
The next moment, a white slash appeared from the jade pendant in the air!
The jade pendant broke into two and fell from the air.
Koshiro quickly stretched out his two palms.
Each of them took a jade pendant in one hand.
Then let Kuina come forward and stretch out her hand.
Then he solemnly handed one of the jade pendants to Guina's outstretched hands.
"Dad... Isn't this the most precious token of the Shimotsuki family? What are you doing..."
Kuina opened her eyes wide in disbelief, staring at the half jade pendant in her hand.
Usually, my father treats this jade pendant as a treasure and does not let anyone else get close to it.
Now it has been divided into two halves.
“Kuina, I hope you will not disappoint me.
I will give the other half of the token to Zoro.
If you can defeat Sauron and take back this half of the jade pendant, then you will be the head of our Shimotsuki family!"
"Yes! I won't let you down!"
Kuina said with a determined look.
……
After accepting the jade pendant, Kuina said goodbye to Koshiro and Lin En and walked out of his room.
Doorway.
Lin En looked at Kuina, whose facial expression was somewhat excited, and smiled: "Are you happy now?"
"Well~ Thank you, I am in a better mood than ever~"
Kuina couldn't stop showing joy on her face.
Lin En looked at Kuina who was smiling and said, "That's right, girls should smile more, it will make them look better."
Kuina smiled and said, "Mr. Lin, you are good at using sweet words to make girls happy.
Are you a man who is good at playing tricks on girls' feelings?"
"Haha, how is that possible? I am a loyal and good man."
Lynn smiled.
Kuina: “Really?”
Lynn: “Really.”
The figures of Lin En and others gradually faded away as they chatted.
Koshiro inside the house couldn't help but grin.
Looking at the half of the jade pendant in my hand,
He murmured, “Father, I saw the same thing in that child as I did in you.
I'm willing to take a chance on that kid, and I hope you won't blame me."
