Original God, starting from the sister against the brother
Chapter 40 Randomly pissing off an old father
Time goes back to when Silver takes Navia out of the Water Village Restaurant.
As soon as he walked out of the door of the Water Village Restaurant, Silver gradually quickened his pace, and at the same time signaled Navia with his eyes to follow closely.
After the two walked some distance away, Silver suddenly grabbed Navia's arm and started running wildly.
Silver didn't stop until the two of them ran all the way to the Gray River branch of the Thorn Rose Society.
Navia asked, bending over and breathing heavily.
"Uncle Silver, have we escaped my father's pursuit?"
Silver looked at the members of the Thorn Rose Society coming in and out of the Gray River branch, then he felt relieved and said to Navia.
"Miss, actually the president is still in Mo Mang Palace and doesn't know about your escape yet."
Navia was stunned.
"Ah? Then...then our coming to the Gray River District branch of the Thorn Rose Society, wouldn't that expose the fact that I sneaked out?"
Silver was also amused and said after a wry smile.
"Miss, are you still unclear about the identity of the person you are talking tonight?"
"Eh? Is that gentle older brother a troublesome person...I don't have any impression of him?"
Seeing that Navia didn't remember, Silver reminded her.
"Didn't the president personally hand you a file three days ago?"
As soon as Silver said that, Navia also had an impression.
"It's true, but my dad and I have been sulking for the past few days."
"My father suddenly handed me a file that day and asked me to take a good look at it. I thought it was another summary of the chamber of commerce management theory he had summarized, so I didn't check it out out of spite..."
Silver realized that this was the case.
No wonder Navia didn’t recognize Chao Ke, it turned out she didn’t even look at the information.
So Silver immediately told Navia the information about Chao Ke.
Navia was stunned when she heard this. Only then did she realize how threatening the person she had just chatted with was.
"So, Miss, I still think it would be better to tell the president about this matter."
Navia also understood that this matter was of great importance. Although she wanted to be friends with Chao Ke, she had to let her father know about this matter first.
Thinking about the gentleness and humor Chao Ke showed during the conversation tonight, Navia bit her lip and said.
"Uncle Silver, let's go find father together. I also have something to talk to father about what happened tonight."
"Understood, miss."
...
Late at night, Carres dragged his tired body down from the carriage.
Because of his leadership in the construction of the patrol ship, the Thorn Rose Society was highly commended by the Momang Palace, and Cares himself was even awarded a medal.
Although Cares declined the honor, all the officials, both big and small, in Fontaine showed goodwill towards the Rose of Heaven Society.
Many businesses that were not open to the Thorn Rose Society are now willing to allow the Thorn Rose Society to participate and share a piece of the pie.
Cares has been happily busy during this period.
When he opened the door, Carres was surprised to find that the living room was brightly lit tonight.
In addition to his subordinate Silver, even his daughter, who had just had a quarrel with him in the afternoon, came out of the house and was waiting for him in the living room.
This abnormal scene made Carres feel inexplicably uneasy.
He coughed lightly and said, "What's going on? Why are you still awake so late at night and waiting for me in the living room?"
Silver pondered for a moment, as if he was thinking of what to say.
What made Cares even more nervous was that his daughter, who was still angry, not only did not make a fuss, but she actually stood up and poured him a cup of tea.
Carres picked up the teacup with a guilty conscience, glanced at his daughter's shy expression, and said after a moment of silence.
"Navia, you didn't put drugs in the tea, did you?"
"Dad!"
Navia's face was puffed up with anger.
After being counselled by Chao Ke for a whole night, Navia wanted to show her filial piety in a small way, but ended up hearing these words from her father.
In the end, it was Silver who spoke first, telling him everything that had happened tonight in detail.
Karesben was still angry about his daughter sneaking out in the evening.
But when he heard that his daughter had left home and met Chao Ke, the Fatui executive deputy, he became completely panicked.
If Navia wasn't sitting safely beside him, Cares would have been so anxious that he would explode.
As Silver finished the rest of the story, Kares felt a little relieved.
At this point, it doesn’t matter whether Navia is blamed for sneaking out at night. The child’s safe return is better than anything else.
Cares reached out and touched Navia's hair. This incident also sounded a wake-up call for him.
First, we need to specifically increase Navia's vigilance.
Furthermore, I need to improve the way I communicate with my daughter.
Seeing that her father seemed to no longer pursue her running away from home, Navia breathed a sigh of relief. She snuggled up to Carres obediently, and the relationship between father and daughter seemed to become unusually harmonious at this moment.
Silver also laughed at this tender scene.
until...
Navia suddenly asked her father a question.
"Dad, do you think I should be careful when I meet Brother Chao Ke next time? For example, try to avoid reporters or something? After all, he is a member of the Fatui. Wouldn't it be bad to be photographed as being too close to the Thorn Rose Society?"
The corner of Carres' eye twitched, and even the good-natured Silver was slightly shocked.
You still know that you are the eldest daughter of the Rose Thorn Society.
The relationship with his daughter had just eased a little, and Carres didn't want to break this rare atmosphere, so he controlled his emotions and said.
"Navia, why don't you try to distance yourself from him?"
"Dad understands that you want to make friends with people your own age. But you also know the reputation of the Fatui."
"It is very likely that Chao Ke deliberately approached you to gain your trust."
"Maybe he has some sinister intentions towards you behind your back."
Navia was startled and stood away from her father.
"Dad, why do you make malicious assumptions about Chao Ke? He...he is different from the other Fatui."
"Perhaps others will distance themselves from him because of his identity as a Fatui."
"But I'm different. I just treat him as a caring older brother."
The veins on Cares' forehead were bulging and he was gritting his teeth.
What kind of magic potion did this damned little bastard feed his daughter?
Carles tried hard to control his emotions.
After this incident, he didn't dare to be angry with his daughter for a while.
After a little thought, Cares came up with an idea.
Since my daughter's work is not going well, I can try from another side.
So, Cares motioned for Navia to sit down and told her the story.
"Navia, Dad knows that you are grown up and have your own thoughts and judgments. You are no longer a child."
"So this time, Dad has decided to support your choice and will no longer stop you from making friends with that Fatui."
Navia happily crawled into Carles' arms, "Dad, you are so nice!"
Kares looked at his daughter with complicated eyes and sighed.
He suddenly changed the subject and continued.
"Navia, there is one thing you need to understand."
"Although I don't mind you making friends with Chao Ke, it doesn't mean that the Fatui will agree that their senior officials have too many connections with the local forces of Fontaine."
"So, I plan to go to the Buffati Mansion in the near future to communicate with the Fatui executive stationed in Fontaine and express our attitude towards establishing friendship."
"What do you think, Navia?"
After listening to her father's advice, Navia felt that it made a lot of sense.
I was only thinking about myself and forgot about Chao Ke's identity. It was my father who considered it carefully.
"Dad, I'll follow your instructions."
Cares nodded slightly, realizing that Navia had been tricked by him.
"So, little Navia. For the sake of both of you, don't meet that Fatui again during this period of time, okay? No matter if he takes the initiative to find you or you go to find him."
Navia nodded to show that she understood.
She nuzzled into her father's arms affectionately, "Thank you, Dad. You're the best."
Carres gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words stiffly.
"It's okay, you're welcome. I'm your father after all."
However, this is what Kares was thinking.
After the meeting, as long as the executive could kick Chao Ke, the yellow-haired guy, out of Fontaine, or ask him to deliberately distance himself from Navia and stay away from his daughter.
So, no matter what conditions Alechino offered, Cales would give them.
To be honest, Cares was really a little scared of Chao Ke. He deceived his own daughter into this state in just one night. What if he got back at him after a long time?
After getting up and sending Silver out of the house, Cares also sent his daughter upstairs to rest.
And Carres himself sat on the sofa again.
Taking out the cigarettes he had given up long ago due to illness, Cares lit one for himself.
Looking at the smoke and dust floating in the sky, it suddenly turned into Clementine's appearance.
"Well--"
Carres leaned weakly on the sofa, sighing in his heart.
Clementine, it's ok that you left so early, but you also left yourself with such a difficult problem.
Although Cares thought that it would be best to support himself until Navia got married and had children before leaving.
But this matter cannot be rushed. Even if Navia is really looking for love, it cannot be at this age, and certainly not with Chao Ke!
Carles crushed the butt of his cigarette into the ashtray.
By the way, find a reliable peer as a friend for your daughter, and don’t let her be led astray by a shabby guy like Chao Ke.
After some thought, Cares actually found a good candidate.
Clorinde.
This child is pretty good. She is closer in age to Navia, and they are both girls, so they should have more topics to talk about.
Well, I have to make an appointment with them to meet some other day.
