Chapter 104: A lonely man and a widowed woman in the middle of the night?
Perhaps it was Gloria's speech in the post-match interview that won the approval of most fans. The pressure she suffered from public opinion was not as serious as Ringer thought. The person who once said in the newspaper that "Gloria
The ten-year-old fan of the Asian Games quarterfinals and sixteenth?" also published an article this time, but he praised Gloria's performance in this championship and claimed that he saw other things from her.
Young players do not have the drive, vitality and self-confidence. Although the results are not satisfactory, her future is still worth looking forward to.
If you are a reader who has never paid attention to the schedule, after reading this article, you may think that this talented player named Gloria actually lost the championship. However, in fact, she did not even make it to the top 16.
Under such circumstances, his reputation has not declined but has increased, which proves that the combat effectiveness of idiot fans is terrifying (Alice's original words).
By the way, at the end of the article, the ten-year-old fan also deliberately mentioned Gloria's new title "Queen of Gray" and repeatedly praised her as "very tasteful", "rich in content" and "both style and style".
"Temperament" and so on. It is said that Gloria was alone in her room for several days after reading the newspaper. Someone was very worried about her mental state, so he went to comfort her and asked what was wrong? But the gray-haired girl became even more worried.
Depressed, but also a little angry - because that person is Alice.
Some psychopathic criminals like to return to crime scenes. Ringer didn't believe it before, but this time he finally saw from Alice how twisted and depraved human nature can be.
But Gloria's melancholy did not last long, because soon the newspapers no longer paid attention to her elimination, and instead focused on another high-profile rising star: Layla.
Yes, she was eliminated too.
Although many people have high hopes for Layla and hope that the deeds of the legendary player Ms. Mistian can be replicated in her, the reason why a legend is a legend lies in its strong personal color and non-replicability, just like hope
Although Noo admires Joan of Arc, he will not become the next Joan of Arc, and Layla, who admires Lady Mystian, will never become the next her.
She has never stood on this stage to prove herself, not to mention that as an amateur player, her performance is perfect enough. She has no experience in playing professional games, so she can only rely on herself to explore many things.
, whether it is training methods or game rhythm, they naturally need to put in more effort than other players.
The game of entering the top 16 actually exhausted all her energy. On the night after the game, she revealed to several friends, including Xino, that she felt that she had no hope of advancing to the top eight.
This is not a depressing statement, but a judgment based on the actual situation. Her friends also understood her mood very well. They did not say any words of encouragement and forced her to continue working hard. Instead, they gathered for a meal at the Azure Lake Light Restaurant.
, it can be regarded as a celebration banquet held in advance to relieve Layla from the fatigue accumulated after successive battles.
You asked Lin Ge why he knew so clearly? Of course it was because Xino happened to meet the young man in the small town of Regram at the foot of the mountain when he returned to Chatoli Manor in a carriage after attending the celebration banquet.
What makes Xino feel strange is that when she saw Ringer, the young man was... playing with the little girl?
In the open space next to the carriage house in the town, the members of the Saint Guard moved some discarded cardboard and wooden boxes to build a small secret base. At this time, Ringer was sitting in the position that should belong to the boss.
Chloe, the knight captain of the Saint Guard, looked helplessly in front of her.
The night was getting darker, and the other children who came to play had already gone home. Only Chloe could play later because her home was right next to her. Of course, if the other children had left, she would have nothing to play by herself.
, will go home soon, but the appearance of young people just solves this pain point for the little girl.
"I'm very optimistic about you, Ringer."
Chloe put her hands on her hips, her tone was serious, and she looked like a little adult, even though her height was actually the same as Ringer who was sitting down: "Much better than that Alice, you come and join our Saint Guards as a deputy knight.
Come on! The benefits of our Saint Guard are very good. When you join the group, you will be given a set of brand new equipment and a mount for free (although they are all made of wood). If you are still not satisfied, I can quietly tell your sister.
How about I say a few nice words to you in front of my sister, are you very excited?"
Ringer was a little speechless, but he couldn't argue with a child, so he shook his head: "No."
"How is that possible!?" Chloe's eyes widened in disbelief: "Don't you like onee-sama very much?"
Ringer was even more speechless: "Who told you that I like her? We are just ordinary friends."
"This is impossible!" Chloe questioned loudly: "You live with your sister, how can it be just an ordinary friend! I am not that easy to lie!"
She had an expression on her face that said, "Although I'm young, I'm not naive." Ringer just felt tired: "When did we live together?"
"You come out of Chardonnay every day!"
"Aren't Alice and the others the same?"
"But they are girls."
What you said makes so much sense, I am speechless.
"So think about it again. I think this deal is not a loss for us." Chloe saw Ringer's hesitation, so she stepped up her persuasion, hoping that he could join the Saint Guard. Of course
This is not the point. The point is that someone must take Alice's place. Chloe can tell at a glance that the golden-haired maid has wild ambitions. It is difficult for her to be the deputy knight commander.
Seeing this, Xino felt that he could no longer sit idly by and ignored it, so he coughed twice: "Ahem!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Chloe, who was about to give a long speech to Ringer about the 180 benefits of joining the Saint Guard, heard this familiar voice, and her expression immediately changed.
He froze, turned his head tremblingly, and gave a smile that looked more like crying than a smile to the girl who suddenly appeared behind him: "Sister, sister..."
"I didn't know you were so concerned about my life events, Chloe." The more playful Xino's expression became, the paler the little girl's face became: "I'm a little touched, guess what, Grinsham
When sir knows this, will he be as moved as me?"
Chloe decisively slipped to her knees, rushed over and hugged Xino's thigh, bursting into tears: "Sister, I was wrong!!!"
Xino picked up her collar and said angrily: "It's so late, why don't you go home?"
Chloe was caught in the air by her, dancing around like a big crab in the air, or steamed: "I, I, I, I'm going back to sleep! I just came out for a walk before going to bed to stretch my body.
That's it! Sister, you should go to bed early, staying up late is not good for your health!"
In the end, he said a word of concern, trying to win the favor of his sister and reduce the punishment he might receive.
Xino saw through her little trick at a glance, but did not expose it. After putting her down, he gently patted the little girl's head: "Okay, stop talking sweet words here, go back to sleep, you are still young, but
Can’t stay up late.”
As soon as Chloe landed on the ground, she immediately performed a knight's salute and said seriously: "I obey my sister's orders!"
She turned back to Lin Ge and said: "You should also consider my proposal carefully, Lin Ge. I will wait patiently for your answer. Well, it is best to give me an answer tomorrow!"
Is this also called patience?
Ringer was speechless, but Chloe didn't care what he thought. After achieving her goal, she went home and went to sleep, jumping up and down and humming a cheerful ditty, looking like she was in a good mood.
"She seems to like you very much." It wasn't until Chloe's back disappeared at the end of the street light, and even the footsteps could not be heard, that Xino smiled and teased Ringer: "I just realized now that maybe you
Not only popular with girls, but also popular with children?"
Is there such a thing?
The first thing Ringer thought of was Leticia's attitude towards him, but can a vampire who has been reincarnated for thousands of years really still be considered a child? This is open to question.
Xino asked again: "What did you do to Chloe to make her so anxious to win over you?"
"I didn't do anything." Lin Ge said expressionlessly: "I just chatted with her for a while and then helped her point out some minor shortcomings in the personnel structure and division of powers and responsibilities of the Saint Guards. She thought I had
He has the ability to build the Saint Guard even better, so he strongly invited me to join and become their deputy knight commander. As for my attitude... it's just like what you saw just now."
"puff!"
After hearing his explanation, Xino couldn't help but laugh out loud: "It really seems like something you would do."
Whether it's Ringer or Chloe.
The corner of Ringer's mouth couldn't help but twitch. Did he really think he wanted to talk to Chloe about these things? It's not like the little girl stayed up in the middle of the night and hid in a secret base by herself complaining about how tiring it is to be a knight commander.
, no one understands her, they only treat her as a child... these are the inner thoughts.
After the young man who happened to pass by heard this, his instinct from the pastoral period still remained in his body. At this time, it came into play. He stopped to enlighten her, but in the end, she got entangled with her, especially in front of Xino.
, said something that could easily lead to misunderstanding, which made the young man regret it. If he had known it would be like this, it would be better to pretend he didn't hear it and walk away.
Xino saw that he didn't want to go into depth on this matter, so he changed the subject empathetically: "Speaking of which, it's so late, why doesn't Mr. Ringer go to rest? Is he like Chloe, who sleeps
I couldn’t sleep, so I went out for a walk? But why are we in the small town of Regram?”
The environment of Yunjing Sky Island is obviously more suitable for walking.
However, it was a good thing she didn't mention it. As soon as she mentioned it, Ringer felt a little embarrassed.
It’s not Maitien’s fault, and I don’t know what she said to the girls on Cloud Whale Sky Island. Recently, their attitude towards young people has been so enthusiastic that it’s a bit overwhelming. Today is Ovi
La invites him to participate in the mysteries of literature. Tomorrow will be the day when Ietta will tell people that the primroses are blooming and I miss you so much. This Saint Charlia just made an appointment with him to go out for a walk after dinner. Rorona turned around and came over to ask you.
Are you free tonight? Ringer asked what you want to do. Princess Haiqi opened her eyes and said furtively: I know what you are worried about. I have some small props here that are very useful to solve your worries. Do you want it?
Come and take a look at my alchemy workshop?
Can Ringer believe it? Of course he doesn’t.
Even Leticia didn't sneer at him. When the two met outside Tianxin Church in the evening, she reluctantly gave the young man a smile. Although it was a bit stiff, judging from her previous attitude towards Ringer
, immediately seemed intriguing. The countess who was present at the time looked at Ringer and her eyes instantly became strange, and Ringer's mood also became particularly tired at that moment.
He could no longer stay on Cloud Whale Island, so he used the excuse of relaxing alone to leave the island, the Forest of Lothar, and even the Shadori Manor, and came to the small town of Regram at the foot of the mountain to take refuge. As a result... the result was...
Got caught up in Chloe.
However, can this reason be told to Xino? Of course it is impossible, so the young man can only answer with silence.
Again, he had long noticed that some girls on Cloud Whale Sky Island had strange feelings for him. Of course, the scope could not be as wide as Medien's, and there were probably still people fishing in troubled waters, just to join in the fun.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! In essence, Ringer is not a person who likes to escape, especially when faced with emotional problems. He knows that escaping will only make the problem more complicated.
So he had already made preparations for the response. At present, his focus is still on entering the Temple of Heaven and fighting against the Witch Association. In Alice's words, he is more career-oriented, so he is not interested in emotional matters.
Not keen. If any girl expressed her feelings to him at this time, he thought he would reject it decisively. Although it was a bit cruel, it would be better for everyone to be decisive.
The problem is that girls are also newcomers when it comes to emotional matters. Therefore, although they are aware of their own thoughts, they don’t know what to do. They just follow the thoughts in a daze and do things to make themselves feel.
Just happy things.
They have no intention of actively expressing their feelings at all. In this case, should Ringer be the first to come to the door and say a word of rejection without thinking? That is not decisive, but irresponsible.
Ringer was waiting for them to take the initiative, so that he would have a reason to refuse. However, the girls did not understand what taking the initiative meant, and the problem was stuck here.
Although Metien is sensible and considers his brother very much, he is still a child in the end and does not understand how complicated this matter is. He even adds another fire to the straw pile. It can be said that he does bad things with good intentions.
A model.
But Linger couldn't blame her. Although he had rarely reprimanded his sister for rebuilding the Tianxin Church, the nature of the two matters was not consistent, and the solutions could not be roughly equated.
well.
The young man sighed softly in his heart, and once again felt that there were things in the world that made him embarrassed. The last time he felt this way, Mr. Yang Ke asked him what his plans were for the future, and he was torn between studying history and inheriting Tianxin Church.
At that time. Apart from that, not even the Witches' Guild and the real-life witch Tendis had brought such pressure to him.
Xino looked at his look in her eyes and thought thoughtfully: It seems that the problem Mr. Ringer is facing is more serious than he thought.
