Chapter 873 Going Home
"In fact, the real situation is not what you just saw..."
After carrying the whining red-haired director to the sofa and wrapping her up in a blanket, Leon turned to Miss Crash and Joshua and tried to clarify:
"The director was drunk and what he said just now was nonsense. We didn't do anything to offend Veronica."
"Ah."
The Freckled Prince couldn't help but sneered when he heard this, and subconsciously wanted to make a few sarcastic remarks, but he suddenly felt his face slightly cold, and found that Leon's eyes had fallen on his right cheek.
"..."
Humph, you are just a reckless man who only knows how to use violence. I am too lazy to bother with you!
Facing Leon's slightly raised right hand, Prince Freckles generously chose to forgive his brother-in-law's behavior, pouted his lips and turned his head to leave the director's office, while Miss Bumped shook unconsciously, then nodded repeatedly:
"Yes, yes, I must have come at the wrong time. There must be nothing going on between you... between you and Director Olivia."
"..."
Forget it, I am innocent anyway, you can think whatever you want!
After nodding helplessly, Leon looked at the red-haired director who was lying on the sofa with a thin blanket and had fallen asleep at some point, and then he asked:
"Lila, I have to go home for something. Can you please take care of the director?"
"Ah? I...can I do this?"
"Just keep an eye on her. Even though the director drank a little too much today, she won't do anything rash. You just need to stop her when she gets drunk and don't let her talk nonsense."
"Oh, I should be fine then."
"Thanks a lot."
After entrusting the director to Miss Clash, Leon looked at the sky outside the window which was getting brighter and brighter, then he stood up and went into the window of the director's office, and rushed back to the [Happy Apartment] through the mirror world.
Accompanied by the baby barking of the little Ha, Leon walked along the mirror of Bridge Street, and finally walked out of the window on the sixth floor of Happy Apartment. He flipped down the windowsill lightly and returned to his own bedroom.
Sure enough, this is the only real home.
Looking at the house that was still spotlessly clean and tidy after he had been away for more than ten days, Leon couldn't help but relax a little, and inexplicably felt a kind of tranquility from the depths of his soul.
The Lionheart Prince of the Robin Kingdom, the Aquarius Director of the Cleanup Bureau, the God of Food in the King-Slaying Society... Although these are also himself, it seems a bit hypocritical to say that these selves who enjoy status and power or have a notorious reputation are always just a layer of skin attached to "Leon".
And only in this small room, the self who lives in the complaints and expectations of Anna and others is truly growing in the human being "Leon", preventing himself from becoming the flesh and blood of an empty soul, and is a special existence that can never be replaced.
Well~ It's so nice to be home~
Sitting sideways on the bed covered with a quilt, Lyon stretched out his arms and lay on his back on the soft pillow. He felt relaxed all over. Just as he was about to let out a sigh of relief, he felt something hard suddenly hit his neck. It felt like... a notebook?
After reaching under the pillow and pulling out the hard object that was poking him, Leon, who was lying on the bed, squinted his eyes in the morning light coming in from the window and checked the thing in his hand.
A small book with a thick hard cover. On the cover were three cartoon pigs with a very childlike style. On the title page, there were two crooked words written in colored crayons...
Account book?
Well... William doesn't have the habit of keeping accounts. Anna's account book is in the kitchen drawer, and this one is obviously Melanie's.
After hesitating for a while holding the little sister's account book, Leon couldn't suppress his curiosity after all. He reached out and opened the account book to take a look. Then he immediately understood why this thing appeared on his bed.
Although Anna has a gentle personality, she is unexpectedly strict when it comes to education. She is always on high alert for the two little devils who always like to make trouble. Account books and the like are definitely not hidden there. In the whole house, she is the only room that she won't look through carefully.
After flipping through a few pages of the account book with interest, looking at the business income of a series of ghostwriting homework, copying notes, imitating the teacher's handwriting to write notes to skip classes, and even signing low-scoring test papers and transcribing parent feedback forms, Lyon couldn't help but chuckle.
Tsk tsk tsk, the primitive accumulation of capital is indeed sinful... and it will also violate many school rules. If Anna saw the things in this account book, she would definitely give her a slap in the face~
After shaking his head slightly, when Lyon was about to put down the account book in his hand, he suddenly saw a strange new "income".
"Informant fee: 2 silver rounds per week."
Informant fee...it can't be the kind of informant fee I guessed, right?
After looking at the crayon mark on the front of the informant fee and finding that it was the same exclusive green toad mark as the "Sister-in-law Investment" from Veronica, Leon's mouth twitched slightly. He then turned back to the title page of the piggy account book and looked for the project mark written in small print on the back.
"Since my eldest brother is very popular with the beautiful sisters, I judged that my eldest sister-in-law might need an informant, so I took the initiative to negotiate with her and set a fee of 2 silver wheels per week for the informant. If there is any specific discovery, the informant fee for that week will be doubled, and an additional special investment will be received from my eldest sister-in-law..."
"..."
You... although these are all harmless gains, it is not a good thing to always violate school rules... Well... don't blame me~
After looking at the series of green frog informant fee marks on the account book, Leon silently closed Melanie's account book and hid it considerately in the closet grid outside the curtains... Because it is close to the window and easily accumulates dust, Anna will wipe it every two days to ensure that it will not be missed.
Children should study more and don’t always think about making money. Big brother is doing this for your own good. This is just an education of love and is definitely not revenge from big brother!
After deliberately folding the curtains a little bit inwards to make sure that Anna could see them as soon as she came in, Leon lay back on the bed and was about to take a nap. When Anna and the others woke up and went out, they heard some slight noises coming from the living room.
After a while, a thin girl with her hair tied to one side quietly opened the door and looked inside with a little expectation. Then, her eyes, which were as clear as two lakes, were immediately filled with ripples of joy.
"Brother! You're back."
"Well, I just came back."
After opening his mouth to respond, looking at his sister who was still in her nightgown, Leon sat up and said a little embarrassedly:
"Anna, did the sound of my footsteps on the floor wake you up?"
"no no."
After hurriedly shaking her head, the thin girl's pretty eyebrows curved and she said with joy in her eyes:
"I come to your room every morning at this time to take a look...Brother, is your business trip going well? Are you injured? How long can you stay at home after you come back this time?"
