Chapter 635: Fu Nina runs away from home
Just like that, after successfully reaching a cooperation agreement with Villette, Arlecchino rushed back to the Buffati Mansion without any delay.
Although it was already dark, Alechino, thinking of the importance of not wasting time, began to arrange personnel and prepare for a big move.
……
Alechino called the three little ones from the Hearth House, namely Linny, Linnet and Femini.
When the three of them came to him, Alecino looked extremely serious and said solemnly: "Linnie, Linette, and Femini, there is a task that I need to discuss with you right now."
Linnie took a deep breath, took a step forward, straightened his chest, and asked, "What mission is it, father?"
Alechino did not immediately tell the three people the specific task he was going to assign, but instead raised a question first.
She looked serious and said slowly, "Do you remember that the last destination of the secret funds we investigated was Melo Petersburg?"
When the five words "Mello Petersburg" reached Linni's ears, he couldn't help but tremble all over, and his throat slid up and down involuntarily.
After swallowing nervously, he stammered, "Father... Father, do you mean..."
At this time, Alechino slowly stretched out his right hand, gently placed it on Linny's shoulder, and spoke to him earnestly.
"Listen, Linnie, I'm sure you know what happened to our spies in Mellow Petersburg?"
After a pause, she added.
"Of course, if you really don't want to go to that place to carry out this mission, I can fully understand that. I can arrange other relatively safer places for you. The decision is in your hands."
After hearing this, Linnie looked back at his sister and Femini, then nodded without hesitation, indicating that he had made up his mind.
"We understand, Father! I..."
When Linny and his group were about to agree, Alechino reached out and stopped them in time.
I only heard her say slowly: "Don't be so anxious, child. Think about it carefully in a few days, and tell me after you have thought it over carefully!"
……
Night, Baisong Town, Clorinde's hometown.
In the living room, Funina sat at the dining table with a cup of black tea in her hand. However, she did not savor the fragrance of the tea. Instead, she gulped it down like drinking wine, and it was finished in a blink of an eye.
Then, she looked furious and slammed the cup heavily on the table. There was a crisp collision sound and some of the remaining tea in the cup splashed out.
"Damn it, damn it! He would rather believe those damn fools than trust me!" Although Finina shouted with gritted teeth, a hint of grievance flashed in her eyes.
Now Funina is like a child who is angry with her family and runs away from home. Even after dinner, she is unwilling to go back to Momang Palace.
Although it is to relax, now it can also be called running away from home in disguise.
Shao Yun, who was sitting opposite her, looked at the emotional Fu Nina in front of him helplessly, shook his head, and couldn't help complaining.
"Okay, okay, I don't know how many times you've repeated this sentence since we left Fontaine. My ears are almost callused by you."
"So cake and tea can't stop you from eating?"
Funina is like a stubborn and willful child. The more others forbid her to do something, the more she insists on doing it.
After hearing Shao Yun's words, she not only did not restrain her words and actions, but raised her voice and said loudly: "I can't stop it! I just want to say it, and saying it a thousand times or ten thousand times is not enough! How can he do this to me..."
Then, Funina angrily picked up the fork in her hand and stabbed it hard on the small cake in front of her.
She poked hard, muttering something.
"Damn Navilette! He's really going too far! Humph, I must teach him a lesson!"
"I'm going to scatter pointy thumbtacks all over the chair you're sitting on, and when you sit down on it, I'm going to make your butt burst!"
"Also, I'm going to put thick glue on your chair. Then you'll be firmly stuck to it and won't be able to get off no matter how hard you struggle!"
The more Furninda talked, the more excited she became, completely immersed in her own childish and malicious fantasies.
Paimon, who was standing by, looked at Furniture's childish behavior and couldn't help but lean close to Ying's ear and whispered in a low voice, "Furniture is so childish! In comparison, Nashida seems much more mature and stable than her..."
Ying turned her head slightly, thinking about the matter from a different angle, and then responded softly: "Yes, that's true. But it's good this way, at least she won't point the finger at us and cause us unnecessary trouble."
After saying that, the two smiled at each other and continued to observe Funina's every move.
Even though the small cake on Funina's plate had already been pierced beyond recognition by her fork.
But adhering to the good moral character and habit of not wasting food, Funina picked up the plate without hesitation and started eating in big mouthfuls.
After all, it was just punctured, not broken.
All you could hear was a "crunch, crunch" sound, and soon the whole plate was eaten up, without even a trace of residue left.
After finishing the cake, Funina patted her belly contentedly, then picked up a tissue and wiped off the traces of cream left on her lips.
Then, she turned her head and looked at Clorinde who was standing beside her, and said with a smile: "Claurinde, I plan to stay at your house for the next few days, and I won't go back to Momang Palace for now."
When Clorinde heard that Fernina was planning to live in her house, she couldn't help but look worried.
"Ah? How can this be possible? Lady Funina, if you are not in Momang Palace, what will you do if something goes wrong in Fontaine?"
Upon hearing this, Funina curled her lips, a hint of pride appeared on her face, and she replied nonchalantly: "Don't worry, there will be absolutely no problem! Isn't there Villette? With him around, Fontaine will definitely not make any mistakes!"
After that, Funina crossed her arms across her chest and continued angrily, "Humph, I just don't want to go back to Momang Palace right now. Whenever I think of Villette's disgusting face, I get so angry!"
Paimon, who was standing by, looked at Funina's arrogant and angry look, and leaned close to Ying's ear and whispered, "Hey, look at Funina now, isn't she very similar to when you and Shao Yun had a quarrel when we were in Inazuma?"
Ying nodded in agreement and replied softly, "That's right, it's exactly the same... Wait a minute, at that time, Shao Yun and I didn't have a quarrel!"
Finina's ears moved and she heard clearly what the two of them were whispering about.
Especially when she heard Paimon compare her relationship with Navilette to the relationship between Ying and Shao Yun, she was so angry that she stamped her feet and began to explain hurriedly.
"Hey! Can you guys turn down the volume when you whisper? I heard everything. Don't imagine that the relationship between me and Villette is like the relationship between you and your husband!"
"I'm just angry that Villette would rather believe those notorious fools than me!"
[It is indeed not possible to make such an analogy. It can be compared to Prime Minister Zhuge and Liu Chan (Liu Chan)]
After listening to Finina's reasons, Paimon frowned and expressed what many people present were thinking.
"But, Furninna, you did take some countermeasures. If I were Villette, I would definitely choose to meet with the Fatui and have a chat."
Hearing that even Paimon began to doubt her, Funina instantly became arrogant again.
She put her hands on her hips, raised her head and said loudly: "Humph! How can you mortals understand the gods' profound and far-sighted plans that are far beyond the imagination of ordinary people? Superficial!"
Shao Yun, who was standing by, saw that Fu Ningna was starting to act pretentiously again, and a look of impatience appeared on his face. He waved his hand casually and responded perfunctorily.
"Okay, okay, stop putting on airs and talking in official language here. You do have your own thoughtful considerations, and you are great; but the most important thing right now is that you don't cause any trouble for us in the next few days!"
Seeing that Shao Yun was giving her a way out, Funina naturally would not miss this opportunity and talked about her plans for tomorrow's trip.
"In short, in the coming days, you should accompany me to relax! Tomorrow, let's go to the Oprykle Opera House!"
When Shao Yun heard that Funina was going to lead everyone to the Opikle Opera House tomorrow, his first reaction was to think that Funina wanted them to accompany her to watch the trial or something like that.
Thinking of this, Shao Yun quickly waved his hands and shook his head, expressing his firm refusal.
"No, what's the point of watching those trials? It's very upsetting."
When she heard Shao Yun's preconceived notion that she was going to watch the trial, Funina became so angry that her cheeks puffed up like a cute but angry little puffer fish.
"What trial? Hey! Don't you usually read the Steambird newspaper? Really! Tomorrow is just a normal performance, okay!"
Paimon, who was standing by, was stunned when he heard what Finina said, and then he clapped his hands as if he suddenly realized something.
"Oh, yeah! Now that Furninna reminded me, I seem to remember that there will indeed be a drama performance tomorrow! But what exactly will be performed... um... let me think about it."
As he spoke, Paimon frowned and began to think hard, but after a long while he shook his head, scratched the back of his head embarrassedly, and gave a slightly awkward smile.
"Hehehe, sorry, I remember delicious food very clearly, but other things are easy to forget."
Funina crossed her arms and said naturally, "Actually, the crew originally invited me to participate, but I turned it down."
"But the situation is different now. You guys are always by my side protecting me, so I've changed my mind temporarily and decided to take you with me to see it tomorrow, so that you can experience the unique theatrical charm of our Fontaine!"
"Besides, if nothing goes wrong, after the performance, the troupe will invite me to attend a celebration party or something like that!"
"After all, being able to perform on stage at the Oprykle Opera House is a supreme honor! It's normal to hold a celebration party."
"Normally I would turn down any invitation to a banquet, but since you are my guards, I will reluctantly take you to experience the upper class society of Fontaine."
When Shao Yun heard Fu Ningna mention the upper class, he reflexively complained: "Don't tell me there will be a dance party. I don't think I have time to learn the Cancan dance."
When she heard Shao Yun mention the "ball party", Fu Nina nodded in sudden realization and added, "Yes, there really might be a ball party! Remember to wear something nice. Your brown jacket with blue lining will really attract everyone's attention."
Funina's words were already very tactful. After all, Shao Yun's brown coat was really too "unsightly".
"Do you have a dress or something?" Funina asked, "If not, I can provide it for free. I just don't know if I can find one that's suitable for your figure."
When Shao Yun heard Fu Nina mention the word dress, he recalled his own clothes in his mind, and then said uncertainly: "Dress? I should have one, I don't know..."
Ying took a look at the skirt she was wearing and thought it was pretty much the same so she said, "I don't think we need any formal dresses. After all, we're not going to dance..."
Funina touched her chin and felt that Ying was right.
"That makes sense... What about my safety if you guys dance?"
"Ahem, it feels like it's time to go to bed." Funina pretended to yawn.
Shao Yun said casually: "Well, let's go to bed early. Let's treat tomorrow as a vacation to watch a play."
