When Leah was almost out of breath, Shanks let her go. Leah was a little suffocated. She stretched out her little hand and pinched Shanks' face.

To Shanks, this pain was almost like scratching an itch, but he still pretended to be in pain and looked at Leia with wet eyes.

Hey, men who act coquettishly are the best.

Seeing Shanks like this, Leia felt a little helpless, but she was still a little angry, so she did the next best thing and covered Shanks' eyes.

Shanks took advantage of this moment to flexibly lift Leia into his arms, and put his big hands around Leia's waist.

It's really thin, and the arms are so thin, it feels like it will break if pinched. I can't understand how the little girl can use her thin and small body to exert such strong power. The little girl was really strong when she hit him before. It hurts. I have no idea why it hurts so much. It hurts more than Beckman's blow.

The Ferris wheel quickly turned to the bottom and was about to stop. Leah struggled to get out of Shanks' arms. Shanks smiled even brighter. He did not let go of the little girl's wishes. , instead he hugged the little girl tightly and took her directly out of the Ferris wheel.

Leah had always been serious in front of her employees. Now that she was being held in someone's arms and watched by so many people, Leah was even more embarrassed. She couldn't help but push into Shanks' arms. Si also realized that the little girl was embarrassed. Do you think Shanks would put Leia down obediently?

No, Shanks grabbed his cloak and wrapped Leia up, hugging the little girl tighter.

As if declaring sovereignty, Shanks held Leia and straightened his back, like a proud big rooster, and the strands of hair on his hair that couldn't be pressed down seemed to stand more erect.

When there were few people around, Leah angrily beat Shanks' chest a few times, but not really hard.

Shanks was still afraid of offending the little girl, so he put the little girl down, but he still held the little girl's hand very naturally.

"Lily-chan, it's getting late, I'll take you back." Shanks rubbed Leah's head and said softly.

Leia suppressed the restlessness in her heart and nodded dullly towards Shanks.

Shanks no longer thought about taking advantage of Leah. Instead, he walked quietly beside the little girl as if he had put down some burden. He held the little girl's hand tightly as if he had found a home.

Leia turned her head and looked at Shanks. At this moment, Shanks no longer had to think about how to become the Four Emperors and how to maintain the balance on the sea. Leah could also temporarily put aside the calculations in her heart. In short, they were now The state of getting along is really comfortable.

Leia was able to get a glimpse of Shanks' burden. Why couldn't Shanks understand the little girl's desire to protect her family? I also have a deep understanding that the arrival of a new era is an inevitable result, and what will happen then is unknown.

He didn't have such deep feelings about these before, but now that he has a little girl, he also needs to consider the little girl's feelings when doing certain things, but there are some things he has to do, and he will become more and more aware of them in the future. Facing the raging wave, he couldn't even guarantee whether he could survive. He suddenly felt a little worried. He might have been a little impulsive about what happened today. The little girl was very important to him, and he should put her safety first. One person, thinking of this, Shanks suddenly felt guilty, and his smile gradually fell.

Naturally, Leia also noticed Shanks' expression. She stopped and looked at him worriedly.

Shanks reacted immediately. He wanted to smile again, but was interrupted by Leah's words.

"If you don't want to laugh, don't laugh. It's really ugly -" Leah said.

"Can you tell me what you are thinking about?" Leah asked.

"I'm a little afraid...you..." It was the first time Shanks had openly revealed his heart to others, and he couldn't say it.

Lia suddenly understood something. Caring can lead to chaos. People are like this. When you have someone you care about, you will worry a lot.

Based on Shanks' character, he would generally not do anything beyond his control, but he really cared about the little girl, and he wanted to stand upright by her side.

"Shanks, don't underestimate me. I don't need you to stand in front of me to protect me. What I want is to stand by your side. We will face all the difficulties in the future together. And I haven't agreed to be with you yet." You are together, why did you start worrying about those coming so early?" Leah said a little arrogantly.

"That's right. Our Lily-chan is so powerful that she doesn't need my protection. I need to work harder to make Lily-chan agree to be with me!" Shanks bent down and said to Leia with a smile.

Lia also followed his words: "Then you have to work harder, otherwise I might fall in love with someone else~" Lia said this softly with her hands behind her back, and after saying that, she still He trotted forward two steps.

"Our Lily-chan is so good, there will definitely be many people who like Lily-chan in the future, which is really worrying~" Shanks also coaxed the little girl gently.

Leia thought for a moment, turned around and said to Shanks seriously: "Shanks, if you want to do something, just do it without thinking about me. I have the ability to bear it. Don't put more on your shoulders." If it’s a burden, I’ll be worried too.”

Shanks seemed to have let go of some burden and said, "Okay."

His little girl is really smart. She can already guess a lot of things without going into details. The little girl should know some secrets. Although she doesn’t know how his little girl knows those things, it’s okay. It doesn't matter, the little girl hates the Celestial Dragons very much, and there is absolutely no way she will side with the World Government in the future.

Soon they arrived at the door of the small villa that Leah had designed for herself.

Leah took out the key from her pocket. She opened the door slowly, as if she was hesitating. Finally, Leah mustered up the courage and said, "Shanks, do you want to come in for a visit?"

Shanks nodded happily. Of course he noticed the little girl's nervousness, and he didn't intend to do anything else to the little girl. It was enough for tonight. Some things cannot be rushed, so he needs to take his time step by step.
