Chapter 531 The Inexplicable Eula
With a loud bang, Eula slammed the door shut.
The loud sound of the door closing came with a shock wave.
Yan Fei was caught off guard and was hit by the powerful air wave so hard that she closed her eyes involuntarily.
When she opened her eyes again, her face was full of confusion and puzzlement, and she muttered softly: "What happened to Eula? Why did she suddenly get so angry?"
Shao Yun, who was standing aside, naturally knew the reason, but how could he tell the truth and say that it was because he killed Eula's so-called "mentally ill" relatives?
If that happens, things will probably only become more complicated and worse.
So, Shao Yun rolled his eyes, quickly changed to a serious thinking look, and slowly said: "Hmm... Well, is there such a possibility, maybe it's because of me?"
When Yan Fei heard this, she was immediately attracted by Shao Yun's words. She looked at Shao Yun curiously and asked suspiciously, "You? Why is it because of you?"
Upon seeing this, Shao Yun secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then nodded and began to seriously elaborate on what he thought was a "reasonable" explanation.
He said seriously, "Think about it carefully. For a girl, if she has messy hair, unwashed face, and even doesn't have time to change into pajamas before rushing to appear in front of others, wouldn't it be a bit unseemly..."
Having said this, Shao Yun deliberately paused for a moment, observing Yan Fei's reaction. Seeing that the other party seemed to be listening carefully and thinking about what he said, he struck while the iron was hot and continued preaching.
"If the person you are meeting is also a girl and they are good friends, then she may not care too much about these details and be more relaxed."
"But if you face a member of the opposite sex like me with such a sloppy and casual image... I don't need me to explain it too clearly, I think you should understand, right?"
After saying this, Shao Yun did not forget to give Yan Fei a meaningful smile.
After listening to Shao Yun's explanation, Yan Fei nodded in sudden enlightenment, the corners of her mouth involuntarily raised, revealing a helpless yet understanding smile.
"So that's what's going on. I understand. If I were to meet a client in my pajamas and with unkempt hair, I would react like Eula."
Although she understood the logic, Yan Fei was still very curious and said to herself, "But sleeping until noon doesn't seem to fit her personality. She shouldn't be the kind of person who sleeps in, right?"
Not long after, the tightly closed door finally opened slowly, and Eula was seen wearing her usual outfit, "Dancing on the Wave".
At this moment, she had completely changed from the lazy look she had before when she was not fully awake. She looked radiant and energetic.
That delicate and beautiful face was filled with a warm and friendly smile, as if the embarrassing episode had never happened.
She made an inviting gesture and said softly, "Welcome, welcome, please come in."
Shao Yun, who was standing aside, saw Youla forcing a smile and was about to refuse.
However, Yan Fei beside him took the lead and agreed.
"Oh, don't be so polite! Come on, Shao Yun, let's go in together."
After saying that, he pulled the still hesitant Shao Yun and walked into the apartment where Youla lived.
Youla didn't say anything. After all, it would look strange to only invite Yan Fei in and turn Shao Yun away.
……
If I were to describe the apartment where Eula lives in Fontaine, it could be said to be small but complete with all the amenities.
It's a one-bedroom, one-living room apartment, and the space isn't that spacious, but it's more than enough for Eula to live alone.
After Yan Fei and Shao Yun were brought to the living room by Youla.
Youla warmly invited the two to sit down, and quickly brought three teacups and a pot of freshly brewed, steaming hot black tea.
She smiled and said kindly, "Please take a seat and make yourself at home."
Yan Fei also behaved very politely and quickly responded: "Okay, okay, thank you for troubling Eula!"
So, the three of them sat on the sofa.
To be precise, Yan Fei and You La were sitting very close to each other, just like close friends.
Shao Yun was sitting alone far away on the other side, looking like a completely transparent existence.
After a short rest, Eula and Yan Fei exchanged greetings for a while.
Then, Yan Fei asked, "By the way, Eula, I heard that you have left the Knights of Favonius. What's going on?"
Hearing this question, Youla subconsciously glanced at Shao Yun who was sitting quietly beside her.
Then, her expression became a little panicked, but she quickly regained her composure.
After thinking for a while, she began to make up excuses.
"Oh, actually... well, it's because I want to try a new living environment, you know? Just like what Liyue often says, 'Reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles.'"
"So, I think it's time to go out and see more of the world and gain some knowledge."
"Besides, I'm quite skilled, so I won't go hungry anywhere..."
Listening to Eura's excuse, Yan Fei understood what she meant and couldn't help but feel emotional.
"Oh, I understand. It's a good thing for young people to go out more often. But it feels too sudden..."
Seeing that Yan Fei seemed to be going to continue asking questions, Youla felt nervous.
She knew that if she continued to question him, she would find it difficult to give a reasonable answer.
So, she quickly changed the subject and said, "Oh, let's not dwell on this issue, let's talk about business!"
Before she finished speaking, Youla took out a notice, handed it to Yan Fei, and said softly: "Actually, I asked you to come see me because I have a favor to ask. Here, this is the notice, Yan Fei, take a look first."
Yan Fei took the notice and quickly scanned the densely written text on it.
Suddenly, she looked up at Eula in surprise and asked, "Notice of the legal assessment of the Fontaine Guard?"
Eula nodded slightly, looking a little uneasy, rubbing her hands subconsciously, and continued to explain.
"That's right. To become a regular member of the Fontaine Guard, you need to take a lot of exams. I'm not worried about physical fitness or combat, but this law exam... oh, it really gives me a headache!"
When she said this, Eula stroked her blue hair uneasily.
"When it comes to learning something like this, it's best to have an experienced and knowledgeable teacher to guide you, which can often achieve twice the result with half the effort."
"But I have only been in Fontaine for a short time, so I don't really know the true level and teaching ability of the legal consultants here."
"After thinking it over, I have no choice but to trouble you..."
Then, fearing that Yan Fei would be embarrassed, Youla quickly assured: "But don't worry! I definitely won't ask you for help in vain, I am willing to pay the corresponding Mora as a reward!"
At this time, Yan Fei, who was sitting opposite, put the teacup in her hand back on the tea table, smiled and assured Youla: "Oh, don't say that! It's okay, it's just a make-up lesson for you, it's nothing!"
"We are all good friends. If we talk about money, wouldn't it be too distant? It's just right. I can also learn more about the laws of Fontaine..."
Hearing Yan Fei agree so readily, Youla's beautiful face instantly broke into a bright smile.
"Really? That's great! Thank you so much!"
Yan Fei responded very politely: "You're welcome, you're welcome..."
Just like that, after the two chatted happily for a while, Eula suddenly noticed that the tea in the teapot was almost gone.
So, she gently shook the almost empty teapot, turned to look at Yan Fei and said, "Wait a moment, I'll go make some more tea."
However, at this moment, Yan Fei quickly put down the teacup in her hand and said hurriedly: "Let me help you."
Youla shook her head gently, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a touching smile, and said softly: "No need to trouble Yan Fei for help... Shao Yun, you should come and help me."
As soon as she finished speaking, she looked at the translucent Shao Yun beside her.
At this moment, Shao Yun was sitting there silently like a completely transparent person, thinking about how not to cause trouble for Eula.
However, when he suddenly heard that Eula actually offered to help him, his eyes widened.
Shao Yun raised his finger and pointed at himself in disbelief, and stammered, "Me? Are you sure?"
Seeing Shao Yun's surprised expression, Youla remained calm, nodded as if nothing had happened, and replied calmly: "That's right, I just wanted to ask you to give me a hand, what's the matter?"
Shao Yun put down the empty teacup in his hand. In fact, he had finished the tea in the cup long ago, but he remained silent because he didn't want to attract her attention.
But now, since Eula had specifically asked him to help, even though Shao Yun was a little scared, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and agree.
"Okay, no problem, what can I do for you?"
Youla stood up and gently waved to Shao Yun, and replied softly: "Don't worry, just follow me first..."
……
Shao Yun followed slowly behind the graceful Eula. Just as Shao Yun was thinking about what Eula wanted him to help with.
Youla turned around suddenly and quickly grabbed Shao Yun's wrist.
Before Shao Yun could react, he involuntarily followed Eula into her bedroom.
As soon as she entered the bedroom, Youla quickly locked the door with her backhand, then forced Shao Yun to the wall and pinned him against it.
However, due to the obvious height difference between the two, this wall-dong posture, which should have been full of domineering and oppressive feeling, now seems a bit funny.
Not only did Eula not have any deterrent power, but the distance between the two of them became unusually close. At first glance, it seemed more like Eula was acting coquettishly towards Shao Yun.
Eula, who was smiling just now, now had a changed expression. The smile on her face disappeared without a trace, and was replaced by a look of terrified expression.
Her beautiful eyes widened, and she lowered her voice and asked softly with a trembling tone: "You...what are you going to do?"
Shao Yun looked closely at the exquisite face in front of him, feeling the warm breath of Eula gently brushing his cheek. His heartbeat suddenly accelerated and his emotions became excited.
"What? You asked me to come and help you, and now you're pushing me against the wall and sticking to me. You're asking me what I want to do? You've lived in Fontaine for so long that your thoughts have been assimilated!"
Shao Yun seriously suspected that there was something wrong with the Fontaine water. Why did Youla also go crazy?
Perhaps because Shao Yun's voice was too loud, Youla was startled, fearing that Yan Fei outside the door would hear the noise inside the house and misunderstand.
So she hurriedly stretched out her slender index finger and gently placed it in front of her lips, while shaking her head repeatedly at Shao Yun, signaling him to lower the volume quickly to avoid causing unnecessary trouble.
"Shh, keep your voice down, do you want Yan Fei to hear it?"
