"Master Diluc means that you mind her 'love affair' with that bard?"

Diluc wanted to explain, but he couldn't reveal Wendy's identity, so he just shook his head:

"There is no romance between her and the bard."

Abedo touched his chin.

It was easy to tell that Diluc wasn't telling him the truth.

Diluc is not a narrow-minded person. What can restrain him must not be such a boring reason.

It's just that it seems that I haven't seen the bard for a long time.

Speaking of which, the identity of the bard is also very suspicious.

Diluc was also a smart man, so he could naturally see the suspicion in Abedo's expression.

Looking up again, there seemed to be a bit of helplessness in his eyes:

"To take a step back, she is a creature of God. Even if I have strong assets, I am just a mortal."

"That's how close we are."

She was a creation of the gods, and she was the darling chosen by the gods he believed in. It was not a wise move to let him have his own thoughts again and again.

"Perhaps I understand, Master Diluc."

This was the most that Diluc could confess to him, or to anyone else.

Even if he conceals something, he should not embarrass a patient.

Abedo stood up: "By the way, I confirmed our relationship with her this morning."

"……Yeah?"

Diluc did not get up to see the guests off.

"Congratulations then."

It is common for mortals to be trapped in love.

The so-called "love", some people understand it, some people don't understand it.

Those who understand protect themselves wisely and do not touch a leaf; those who do not understand fly to the flames and enjoy it.

The biggest fear is to be trapped between understanding and not understanding, putting both reason and sensibility on the fire, leaving both ends in despair.

When Abedo came back, the girl was sitting on the sofa reading a book. Duoyun didn't know whether he could read or not, but he was lying on the girl's shoulder seriously in a daze.

Hearing the sound, the girl raised her head: "Are you back?"

"Yes." Abedo approached the girl, knelt down on one knee and held the girl's bare feet, looking at the red marks from the night before, "Although I can't go barefoot at home...does it still hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt," Abedo's face looked particularly soft under the warm light. The girl couldn't help but smile when looking at that face, "Keli was just brought back by Kaiya and said they were going on a mission together. .”

"Really," Abedo gently rubbed the girl's ankle, "Then we may have to prepare to deal with the aftermath of Keli."

"Hey, is that so?" The girl covered half of her face with a book and said in a muffled voice, "Well, how is Master Diluc?"

Abedo gently put down the girl's feet, then looked up at the girl: "He is not in a very good condition, but as long as he can take a good rest, he will be fine."

"You care about him."

Abedo tried his best to state this fact in a calm tone, but the jealousy underneath was still difficult to conceal.

But the dull girl didn't seem to be keenly aware of this, and nodded frankly.

"Master Diluc took good care of me before. I don't want him to get hurt."

Abedo felt a helpless annoyance in his heart, so he ravaged the girl's face, her expression even a bit gritty.

Abedo knew in his heart that the girl's answer was not inappropriate, and he himself didn't know what he wanted to hear, but this nameless irritability always appeared from time to time - even though he could now legitimately accompany her.

"Well, Albedo?"

The girl grabbed Albedo's hand, and even though she was slow, she felt something was wrong.

"Come here a little bit."

Although he was still unhappy, Abedo still moved his head close to the girl. Immediately, he felt a softness on his face, and even let out a gentle "chirp".

"Would you be happier if you did this?"

The girl tilted her head and looked at Albedo, her eyes curved beautifully, and they seemed to be filled with tenderness and smile.

"is acceptable."

Abedo also smiled, and the depression disappeared in an instant, but he still took the girl's hand and put it in front of his lips.

"I'll be happier if you kiss here next time."

"Well, they...are kind of spying on me."

"Are they the fools who turn into water when hit? They are probably ice dolls made by my mother using elemental power. They should have special barriers on them. If I didn't resonate with my mother's elemental power, I wouldn't be able to discover them."

The girl nodded, not expecting that she would say anything when she was drunk: "But if you move to the snowy mountains, you won't feel like you are being watched."

Abedo gently brushed the girl's hair and straightened the messed up part: "So will it happen here too?"

"There will be one near the window."

"Well..." Picked up a strand of hair and wrapped it around her finger, "Then move back to the snowy mountain?"

The girl tilted her head to the other side, and her smooth hair spread around Albedo's fingers: "But it will be more convenient to do the commission in the city."

Abedo nodded and combed the girl's hair neatly: "If you don't mind that feeling, you can live in the city permanently, but..."

Abedo said to the girl solemnly: "I must make it clear that you and I are already lovers, so you don't need to pay rent if you live with me."

"I see more mola in the jar."

The girl blinked innocently.

He was discovered while he was putting mola in the jar when he went out.

"and……"

"I also know that you sent Mora to Chenxi Winery."

"Eh?" The girl leaned on Albedo's arm, "How do you know this!"

Abedo looked see-through, and then touched the girl's head: "Although I have no say in the distribution of your property, but..."

Albedo sighed inwardly, and the sick and sad face of Diluc appeared in his mind.

"I think Master Diluc may be even more sad to receive your Mora."

"Won't find out."

The girl rested her head on Albedo's arm: "I wrote Adeline's name and asked her to secretly put it in Diluc's small vault without telling others."

"Hmm...how did you come up with the idea of ​​sending Mora to Mr. Diluc?"

"grateful."

"And during the time I stayed at Chenxi Winery, Mr. Diluc also spent a lot on me..."

The girl blinked: "From a human perspective, isn't it common to first express gratitude financially?"

"Ah." Abedo shook his head helplessly. Although the girl's behavior is now very mature, she is still a bit cruel to the point of being unfamiliar with things involving "human relationships".

"Maybe you should know," Abedo combed his fingers through the girl's hair, "Mora is also a tool for alienation."

"I feel..." the girl said dullly, "I want to at least pay off what I owe him."

"Is that a bad thing for him?"

Abedo lowered his eyes. He was not sure whether he should speak for his "love rival".

"Maybe... in his eyes, the word 'owe' cannot be used in your relationship."

The girl turned her head sideways, found a comfortable position and continued to lie down.

"It may not have been used before, but after that day, it must be used."

The girl has an almost cruel stubbornness towards "human feelings".

For a moment, Abedo couldn't even tell whether she really didn't understand, or whether she was deliberately drawing a clear line with them.

Looking at the girl lying on her arms meditating, Abedo was thoughtful.

No sense of belonging?

Inevitably, the girl thought about the scene that night again - it was absolutely unforgettable and accompanied by her first cry.

She once had the illusion that she and Diluc were so close that she didn't need to weigh the sacrifices and rewards. She confessed that day, and she didn't have extravagant hopes in her heart.

I hope he can accept it, I hope the two of them won't change, I hope he can tolerate her even if her origin is entangled with his past.

The extravagant hopes turned out to be false. The letters were sealed and sent back, and it wasn't just those Moras?

"Then why did you put mola in the jar?" Abedo gently pinched the girl's cheek, looking lonely for a moment.

"Do you feel like we need to draw a clear line too?"
