After Ballard left, Fei finally got out from behind Rean, lowered his head and said gloomily:
"Li En, I seem to have caused you trouble."
"What are you talking about? You're not lying."
Rean's smile was as gentle as ever, and he touched Fei's little head skillfully.
"But, will that Marquis..."
After all, Fei was not a student at that time. She had been a guerrilla for two years, and she somewhat understood the ways of the world.
"It's okay, he won't even be able to control himself soon."
Rean continued to rub Fei's hair, his eyes followed Ballard's luxury car away, his eyes as deep as the night.
"Rean?"
Claire suddenly felt that the man in front of her was a little strange.
The distance is so close, yet it feels so far away.
Far further than that gap called standpoint.
Has something happened that you don't know about?
This distant feeling of alienation did not last long, and soon became calm. Rean retracted his distant gaze and said: "There is probably no hope for 'New Brown'."
"Yes." Sarah nodded, "I just asked the manager that Ballard Hall is all reserved. As for guests at other times..."
"The people from "Red Constellation" are not here." Fei suddenly said.
"Why do you say that?" Rean asked.
"The leader said that we should avoid causing trouble to our partners, especially employers and funding channels."
"New Brown" used to be an important funding channel for "Red Constellation". Even if there was a connection, "Red Constellation" would not make it obvious.
"Indeed, the only thing left is 'A Lisha'. I haven't been to the casino for a long time." Sarah said with emotion, "Fei, you are not old enough, so you can't participate in gambling."
Fei hummed. Although she was born as a hunter, she didn't have bad habits like Ash.
Sarah asked again: "Ice Girl, what about you?"
"Lecter taught me this knowledge, but I didn't have much opportunity to practice it," Claire said a little embarrassed.
"You can tell just by looking at it. You, a workaholic, must have a very boring private life. You won't sleep all the time during your vacation."
"Cleaning, laundry and cooking are still done."
"It's really boring." Sarah didn't even have the energy to complain, "Now you have to rely on me as a reliable big sister. Fei, what's that look in your eyes? Am I not the big sister?"
Fei was unable to complain, so Li En raised his right hand slightly, signaling to his thirty-year-old eldest sister, please go first.
Sarah really took the lead and walked into the casino with a big head, looking like a boss.
It is said to be a premium membership casino. In fact, the threshold for membership is 1,000 mira. The four of them were either guerrillas or national civil servants, and they were not short of money. Sarah took care of everything and got three memberships.
Card – minors don’t have it.
After entering the casino, Sarah looked around skillfully.
"According to my understanding of the Jaegers, they usually concentrate on..."
Just when he got up, Fei said: "The leader found out."
On one side of the casino, at the most lively card table, the trio of the West Wind Troupe that Hamel Village had seen sat at the table with their swords and chips in front of them, which were the envy of ordinary people.
"Full house!"
"Four."
"A royal flush."
The cards were surprisingly good, which made people wonder if Chuqian was cheating. However, when they saw the wind-breaking bird emblem representing the strongest hunter on the chests of the three of them, they could only shut up silently.
Anyway, there are only three of them left on the card table, and everyone else is watching. The civil war can happen as you please.
The result of this round of cards was that the hunter king Lujia won a great victory, and the trap caused a great defeat for Jeno and the destruction beast Leonidas. Just when the two of them were either annoyed or impressed, Fei spoke:
"Captain, Geno, Leo... we meet again."
"Oh, it's Fei. I heard that you went to the east. I'm lucky you found this place. Did your plan to attack the east and attack the west fail?" Lu Jia was not surprised and greeted him with a heroic smile as always.
"Because someone reminded me." Fei glanced at Li En quietly, "I have always had doubts."
"It's good to have good brain growth too." Lu Jia stretched out his big hand, wanting to stroke Fei's head like before.
But this time, Fei did not let the man he regarded as his father touch his head, but took a step back.
The small step made Geno and Leonidas narrow their eyes, while Lujia looked at Rean and Sarah thoughtfully: "What happened?"
"They must be having trouble." Rean could probably guess what Fei was thinking.
"Does this need to be said?" Sarah shrugged, "Fei was almost bullied by bad guys outside just now, but as a father, you were having fun inside, so it's natural for you to have troubles."
"Isn't it true that I have you guys accompanying me? Even the average bad guy Fei can handle it on his own." Lu Jia's expression did not change, but his eyes involuntarily turned cold. "Who is so short-sighted?"
Sarah snorted and said provocatively: "The representative of Lamar State, Marquis de Ballard."
Hearing this answer, Lu Jia also chuckled and said with a smile: "He is a big shot. I hope he will be careful when walking in the future and not break his head and bleed. What do you think, Geno?"
"I heard that big men like this always like to look at the sky and not much at the ground. Wrestling and other things are normal." Geno pushed up his sunglasses and smiled harmlessly.
Claire frowned slightly, but saw Leonidas folding his hands on his chest, just looking at Claire silently, expressing his attitude silently.
At this point, no matter how slow Fei was, she understood that the other party was trying to vent her anger on her, and she shouted again: "Captain..."
However, Lu Jia did not reach out to touch his head, but pointed to the lounge on the other side: "Looking at the way you guys look, it's impossible to bring Fei here to gamble. Let's go and chat over there. We just happen to have a drink together. I'll treat you. I won't keep the money for the night."
.”
"Well, that's money won from other people." Jeno protested, but turned to Fei and said, "You are still the same, drinking juice."
"Um."
A faint hum, as always.
In fact, Fei's heart is much more complicated than Sarah said.
It doesn't matter that the daughter is angry and the father plays cards. Although Xifeng's education is not as spartan as that of his old enemy, it cannot be said to be weak.
If there was no need to worry about the position of the guerrillas, Fei could have turned that Marquis de Ballard into a gourd.
What she really cares about is the leader's current status and what Rean said about the leader's future.
Because she knew the ins and outs, Fei no longer had any grudges against Lu Jia and Xifeng's friends, and could understand the choices they made, but understanding did not mean accepting them.
I would like to ask which daughter is willing to watch helplessly lose her father, or twice?
But Fei also knows Lu Jia's character. She is casual about small matters but will definitely not listen to her when it comes to big matters. It would be better to say that Fei has always had the smallest say in this aspect.
Coupled with Rean's overall considerations and the complicated domestic situation, she felt that her little brain was not enough as she was about to graduate from being a girl.
He would scold the Marquis de Ballard for rabbits without thinking, which is also a reaction of insufficient brain capacity. He can only say that evil people will be punished, and this bald man deserves his misfortune.
PS: Speaking of Lord Ballard, he is indeed unlucky. I have dug many holes for him without realizing it. Sure enough, persecution is addictive, don’t you think so, Captain Yantou?
