"..."
Ino'an was hesitant, feeling that the blond girl in front of him didn't look like a bad person.
Her face was still pale.
"Here, I'll give you some food."
As if she remembered something, Christina took out the ghost bread she bought in the Demon World and handed it to her.
Inoan raised his hand tentatively, then took the bread bag, tore open the package and brought the transparent bread to his mouth, as if he hadn't eaten well in two or three days.
After eating, the ward fell into silence again.
After being silent for nearly a minute, she finally nodded and agreed to the other party's proposal.
"Let's go."
Inoan stepped off the bed, staggered, and barely managed to stand still by pressing the end of the bed.
The bandage on his body started to turn red again, maybe the wound had split.
"You don't have to be in such a hurry to go to work, I can give you an advance payment."
Christina helped Inoan with some worry.
Inoan looked at her.
She didn't actually want to return the favor, she just felt that following these two people would be safer than staying in the hospital.
What she lacks most now is a sense of security. Everything is strange and she can't tell the difference between true and false.
These two people were the only ones she had an inexplicable impression of, and it seemed that they had never had any ill intentions toward her.
"I feel no pain."
Inoan said calmly.
This was the only thing she was sure of.
She felt no pain, and even when she was beaten to the point of death, she only felt stiff and inconvenient to move her body.
Suddenly, Inoan felt a line of sight.
"...Why are you looking at me like this? Isn't it supposed to be a good thing if you don't feel pain?"
Inoan noticed that the housekeeper's emerald green eyes seemed to have a trace of compassion, which made her very uncomfortable.
"Pain is actually a very important protective signal. If you don't understand what pain is, you will become more likely to hurt yourself and others."
Lan Qi said to himself.
"It won't hurt me anyway."
Inoan said to himself nonchalantly.
She didn't think this was a bad thing, otherwise the wounds on her body would make her suffer a lot.
"Yeah."
Lan Qi smiled and had no intention of delving into this issue with Ino'an.
They can talk about some issues later, but the most important thing now is to take good care of her.
"Then I will be your employer."
Christina said to Inoan happily.
She felt that Enoch was in a much better state now than when she first met him, and was no longer so scary.
She has better eyesight than her brother.
Her brother hired Rocky to go home, but he looked like an evil god no matter how he looked at it. However, the Inoan she hired was obviously much more normal. If you look closely, she was a pretty girl.
"I may be clumsy, don't scold me."
Inoan whispered.
Maybe if you don't do a good job, you'll be fired immediately.
She always felt that she might have never done any work, and she had never worn the attire of a maid.
And she felt a little conflicted for no reason, as if she would lose something forever if she put on these clothes.
But it’s better than living on the streets and continuing to be hunted.
"It doesn't matter. I will teach you whatever you don't understand. Please take care of me during the next period of time."
Lan Qi said to Inoan gently.
I don't know why, but he is doing more and more work.
However, Inoan is very strong, so it is definitely a good thing for her to sign a contract and stay at Count Baptiste's house. The cursed demon clan has been intensifying recently, and Huadu may not be completely safe. Even if Lan Qi does not stay with the Count, Home, no matter what evil things are coming, it is good for the Count's family to have another house thug.
Chapter 679 The bet between Lan Qi and Talia
Three days passed.
It's four o'clock in the afternoon.
The residence of Earl Baptiste in the 4th district of Parrieux, the flower capital.
Christina was leaning on the sofa in the living room a little bored, holding a book, and letting the wind turn two pages from time to time.
"Ugh."
She yawned somewhat regardless of the eldest lady's manners, and then shook her head sleepily.
This is better at home, where she can be casual and her family won't blame her. Anyway, she has been taught since she was a child that as the eldest daughter of Count Baptiste's family, she has to live a willful life.
In addition to going out to visit the business district of Crystal Orchid Avenue after lunch, now that I have cooled off after returning home, sleepiness has come to my mind.
"Why haven't you come yet?"
She looked at the clock and murmured.
Every day at 3:30 in the afternoon, it is the time for the house butler Rocky to give lessons to the Earl's son Kyle, and the get out of class will end at 4 o'clock.
It stands to reason that the butler with brown hair and green eyes should now walk through the corridors in a serious manner, and then there is a high probability that he will pass by the living room on the first floor that connects the stairs and the corridor.
Just thinking about it, Christina felt like her eyelids were about to close.
Why don't you take a nap first?
The afternoon sun in the courtyard of Count Baptiste's Mansion is now a slightly darker golden orange, accompanied by a wisp of floral fragrance, making the light and shadow in the reception hall on the first floor of the mansion a bit noisy and addictive.
At this moment, Christina noticed a figure walking through the living room.
"Rocky, come here."
She quickly sat upright, cheered up and waved.
"Miss, what are you doing for me?"
The brown-haired, green-eyed butler holding a book in his hand noticed the eldest lady on the sofa, then changed his pace and walked towards the carpeted living room.
Lan Qi had just finished teaching Kyle a lesson and was about to check the work of other servants in the house.
Master Kyle's costume design classes are half an hour each, four classes a week, which is exactly two hours of additional work time for the housekeeper.
The half-hour course not only helps students concentrate, but also allows students to better digest the knowledge points and facilitates the assignment of some homework for students to practice and think on their own.
"Wait for me here first, I'll be back soon."
Christina said, and then immediately ran away, headed for the stairs, and went to the second floor.
"Slow down."
Lan Qi didn't seem to be in a hurry, and was a little worried that the eldest lady had fallen.
But the eldest lady didn't seem to listen to him at all.
So he simply stood there, holding the book in one hand, and started reading briefly.
The Poissonian translation of "Genesis" he took was borrowed from Kyle.
No matter how time passes, only this book has been handed down across hundreds of thousands of years.
Each language translation has a unique interpretation of the divine text.
Although Lan Qi could not learn the magic in the Book of Creation, since he saw the ancient version of the Book of Genesis in the Blood Moon Bad Times, he was very interested in reading the various versions of the Book of Genesis. Everyone will have different understandings every time.
Soon.
Christina is really back.
But this time when she came back from the second floor, she came down with a red-haired maid.
It seemed that the maid was cleaning the room, and in the middle of her work, she was dragged over by the eldest lady.
"Look at how she's changed!"
Christina proudly puffed out her chest, put one hand on her waist, and asked the housekeeper to take a look at her personal maid.
I saw Inoan behind Christina.
Her long bangs covered her right eye, and her looming purple eyes observed the person in front of her. Even though she was tied into a pair of ponytails, her long red hair still fell to her waist behind her back.
Although Christina said that she could cut Enoch's hair, Enoch seemed reluctant.
It's also possible that covering a little of her face makes her feel more secure.
The dress is a classic maid outfit from the Posen Kingdom. The black and white color main body is dotted with meticulous bows, and the conspicuous ruby on the chest is the finishing touch, which exactly sets off the crown-like cloth decoration on her head.
Inoan's brows furrowed slightly, as if he was worried about something.
"Oh, are you finally willing to wear a tiara today?"
Lan Qi smiled at Inoan and said hello.
On the first day when she came to the Earl's Mansion, when Inoan saw this maid outfit, she put it on very reluctantly.
And the maid's tiara is not willing to wear it no matter what, it is like her last insistence.
When teaching Ino'an to work this morning, Lan Qi vaguely remembered that Ino'an was not wearing a headgear.
