Chapter 678: Funina on the Pirate Ship

Night falls again.

After work, Eula dragged her tired body and slowly opened the door.

Inside the house, warm light sprinkled on the ground, washing away her fatigue from the day.

It’s not that Eula didn’t turn off the lights, it’s because Amber will be living in her own house recently and taking care of her daily life for a while.

Now Eula feels so good! Going home with someone to accompany you is a feeling that cannot be replaced by any amount of money!

"Amber, I'm back." Eula said softly while changing her shoes.

Amber responded from the kitchen.

"Welcome home! Eula, how was your work today?"

Eula replied, "Yeah, not bad, just a little tired."

At this time, Amber poked her head out from the kitchen with a mysterious smile on her face, "By the way, Mr. Shao Yun and Miss Funina seem to have something to discuss with you. They are already here and are sitting on the sofa now."

Upon hearing the news, Eula suddenly raised her head and looked directly at the sofa in the living room.

Sure enough, Funina was sitting there, looking at her helplessly.

"Lady Fininna? You're here." Eula stood up in surprise, walked quickly to Fininna, and said with a little apology.

Fu Nina shook her head helplessly and said with a wry smile: "I don't know what you are going to do. I just want to go wherever Shao Yun goes now."

Seeing this, Shao Yun on the side quickly explained: "I told you yesterday that we have to deal with Navia together, do you remember?"

Eula suddenly realized and patted her forehead, "Oh, I remember now!"

……

As Eula returned from get off work, the meeting officially began.

Shao Yunduan sat on the sofa, clapped his hands, and said to the two girls directly: "Okay, everyone is here, it's time to talk about the plan."

However, before explaining the plan, Shao Yun felt it necessary to mention Eula's background first.

"Before we begin, Eula, I want to ask you a question. Do you want to embellish the reason why you came to Fontaine or tell the truth directly? The decision is yours."

Upon hearing this, Funina looked at Shao Yun suspiciously and interrupted, "What? Isn't the reason why Youla came to Fontaine what I thought?"

Eula weighed the pros and cons, and after careful consideration, she chose to tell the truth to Furninna.

After all, as a god from a foreign country, Finina shouldn't be too concerned about her "insignificant" background.

So, Eula took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and replied, "Okay, then tell the truth. I believe Furninna will keep this secret for me."

When Funina heard the word "secret", she felt even more confused and puzzled. She asked, "Secret? What's going on?"

Eula took a deep breath and began to slowly tell her story to Furninna.

"My name is Eula Lawrence. I am indeed a noble of Mondstadt. To be more precise, I am an old noble."

"Thousands of years ago, the Lawrence family assisted Lord Barbatos, the god of wind, in overthrowing the rule of the lonely king of the tower, and together with the Gunnhild family and the Leggenfend family, they established Mondstadt."

Then, her tone gradually became heavier.

"However, the Lawrence family, who once swore to protect Mondstadt, gradually lost their way under the temptation of power. They established aristocratic rule in Mondstadt, and this period of history is called the Old Aristocratic Era of Mondstadt."

Eula frowned slightly and continued, "More than a thousand years ago, Vanessa overthrew the old aristocracy, established the Knights of Favonius, and brought a new order to Mondstadt."

She paused for a moment, and then continued, "Because the Lawrence family once had achievements, the family was able to be preserved with Vanessa's tolerance."

"But since then, the surname Lawrence has become something despised in the eyes of the Mond people."

At this point, Eula's voice trembled slightly. "Then, more than half a year ago, my family suffered a terrible change. Everyone died except me."

A flash of pain flashed in her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.

"So, I resolutely left the Knights, left Mondstadt, and came to this strange land - Fontaine."

When Eula mentioned the night when her family was wiped out, her mood became a little heavy.

That was a nightmare that she could never get rid of. Before leaving Mond, those terrible scenes would constantly flash through her mind in the dead of night.

However, in the face of such a tragedy, who can Eula blame?

She couldn't find anyone else to blame except her extremely stupid relatives.

After all, if it weren't for their reckless behavior, perhaps nothing would have happened.

"As for why I am the only one left in my family..." Youla's voice trembled slightly. She looked at Shao Yun with a hint of helplessness in her eyes.

Shao Yun understood what she meant and answered on behalf of Youla: "I killed her entire family."

When Funina heard this, she was so scared that her eyes widened and she almost ran away.

"Wait, what did you say? You killed Eula's entire family?" she asked in disbelief.

Shao Yun seemed unusually calm. He nodded calmly and replied, "Yes, I was angry because her relatives kidnapped Paimon. In the end, only Eula survived."

He described to Furninha the bloody night of genocide in simple and calm language.

After listening to this, Funina wiped the non-existent sweat from her forehead and secretly felt lucky that she chose to apologize to Shao Yun at that time.

"So, what are you saying this for?"

Eula told him in detail the crisis she was facing.

"Miss Navia wanted to thank me for the money I donated to Baisong Town, which was the medical expenses that Lady Funina gave me. She has found out some things about me and is going to Mond to find out about Lawrence."

"But I absolutely cannot let her know about my past. I really don't want to talk about those things again. So, we have to put on a show!"

Finina listened to Eula quietly, with a thoughtful look in her eyes.

Based on her years of life experience, she had her own opinion on Eula's concerns.

"In fact, maybe it's because this is Fontaine," Furninna said slowly, "I think Navia may not care whether you are a descendant of the old Mondstadt nobles."

After all, Fontaine and Mond are two different places, and some old accounts... your background is a disaster in Mond, but in Fontaine, it may not be a big deal. So, Miss Eula, you may not have to worry so much. "

Eula lowered her head, the worry on her face not lessening in the slightest.

"But I don't dare to gamble. I have made up my mind to hide my past and never let it be revealed..."

Finnina blinked, thought for a moment, and then nodded, indicating that she understood Eula's concerns.

She sighed and said, "Okay, since you insist, I'll agree to it. So, what do you need me to do?"

At this time, it was Shao Yun's turn to speak.

He looked at Funina and said seriously, "We need you to use your acting talent to help us complete this scene."

"To donate the money to the Thorn Rose Society and provide a 'legitimacy', you only need to make your explanation that night."

When she heard Shao Yun asking her to stand up for the source of the donation, Funina shook her head like a rattle and refused:

"Hey, hey, hey! How can we do this? Wouldn't the news of my attack be spread out?"

Shao Yun was speechless when he saw this. He rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "Last time, the ceiling of your bedroom was shot with arrows. All the reporters in Fontaine saw it. What are you trying to cover up?"

Funina's face turned pale instantly, and she stammered, "But...but..."

Shao Yun did not give her a chance to continue explaining, interrupting her and continuing, "Besides, why do you have to talk about the 'humiliation' you suffered that night?"

"You just need to pretend that I have a lot of money and I am happy to do it. You should be able to do such a simple thing, right?"

After listening to Shao Yun's words, although Fu Ningna was still a little reluctant, she also felt that what he said made sense.

She hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded in agreement.

"Well, you're right..."

Then, Shao Yun added: "As for the newspaper, I will tell Miss Charlotte that the donors do not want their lives to be disturbed, that's all."

"That way, it's over."

After listening to Shao Yun's meticulous action plan, Funina knew that she had no other choice. She had to agree to it whether she agreed or not.

"Um, okay."

Fu Nina sighed helplessly, then put her mouth close to Shao Yun's ear and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "You obviously got the money, why do you want me to step in?"

Shao Yun lowered his voice and replied: "I have already tacitly agreed to be responsible for your safety. What else can you bargain for? Just consider it as the reward I deserve!"

After hearing this, Funina was suddenly speechless and couldn't find the right words to refute for a moment.

After all, she has already boarded the pirate ship and there is no way back.

After a moment of silence, Funina could only respond helplessly: "Okay..."

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly coughed lightly a few times and then cleared her throat.

"Ahem, then, when exactly do you plan to take action?"

Upon hearing this, Shao Yun turned to look at Youla, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Youla, when are you going to rest... Well, forget it, there's no need to bother..."

"Funina, tell the security team tomorrow to give Eula a day off."

After hearing Shao Yun's request, Funina looked embarrassed and hesitantly said, "Huh? The holiday for Fontaine's civil servants is not something I can control! This has to be decided by Villette."

After listening to Fu Ningna's explanation, Shao Yun asked in confusion: "Ah? What? How did you mobilize the guards of Hailu Port to cause trouble for me, Ying and Paimeng?"

When Shao Yun mentioned what happened in Hailu Port, Funina's face turned a little embarrassed.

"Alas, I just borrowed the guards from Hailu Port to assist me. It doesn't mean that I really have the ability to manage them..."

When Shao Yun heard Funina's explanation, he couldn't help feeling helpless. He really didn't know how to complain about this "Water God".

"You are too good at being a water god... Never mind, I won't say anything."

"But if that's the case, then it's easy. You can just go find Villette and ask him to give Eula a holiday. Villette will definitely agree to this small matter!"

After listening to Shao Yun's words, Funina felt that there was some truth in them.

"Hmm...Okay, I'll give it a try. It's such a small matter, Villette probably won't mind it too much."

Seeing that Fu Nina agreed, Shao Yun struck while the iron was hot and said, "Okay, then we can put on a show for Navia tomorrow!"

"Everything is ready, just waiting for tomorrow's performance!"
