Geeky

"Cough, cough, cough."

"Brother, are you sick?"

Balan cast a cold glance at Tudor on the right, picked up a small silver jug, and poured milk into the black tea cup.

The female vampire sitting in front of Su Shi is called Tina Carloranta, who is Balan's cousin.

Tina is a groupie, but the blood group is very harsh on beauty. The male singer who once fascinated her unfortunately invited her to sit in the guest seat, and she saw a nose hair that he didn't clean, so that ... She herself is very good at the coquettish ways of the human fashion world.

Balaam looked at Su Shi's side face, trying to confirm that he had no heart of love.

But it was difficult to observe Su Shi's expression from his perspective.

He saw that Tina looked at people from that slightly upward angle again. It was not out of meekness or introverted quietness, but because she knew that in the eyes of the other party, she was the most moving from this angle, and this angle could make her Opening her eyes naturally made her chin smaller, and those big eyes, which were already beautiful, stood out even more on that delicate little face.

——However, if you want to tell Balan, this posture looks like a stiff neck after being in this position for a long time, or it is another cervical spine problem.

When she blinks, her lashes brush the inside of the lace band, and they are so long that even if her eyes have a little bit of a glamorous dip, there's still a little bit of them popping out... looks like flylegs Just as annoying.

"anthomaniac."

"frivolous."

"I don't know how to check."

Balan pressed his lips to the mouth of the cup, using super blood power to make a heartbeat, and stared at Tina with a pair of slightly fierce eyes.Unable to speak due to the constant noise in her head, Tina turned her eyes and raised her eyebrows at Balan——

Afraid of annoying Balaam?No, she just wanted to snatch him away before Balaam could react.

She won't let him go just because he's a stupid brother.

She approached Su Shi and said, "Balan seems to be looking at you."

Su Shi turned his head and saw Balan quietly drinking tea with his eyes downcast, and he raised his eyebrows in confusion.

Tina gave Balan a sideways glance, then tilted her swan-like slender and graceful neck, and brought her face closer.When Su Shi turned his face back without any precautions, he suddenly found that his face was almost close to the other's, and Tina's lips were only an inch away from him.Su Shi was startled, and he breathed a sigh of relief after stepping back.

"..."

Tina immediately turned her face away, bit her red lips, and showed a panicked and sweet smile.

...The atmosphere suddenly became more ambiguous.

Even Su Shi, who is as stable as Mount Tai, was a little... at a loss?

"Crack", the slight sound caused Balaam to withdraw his strength in time, but a small crack still appeared on the milky white cup wall, but because of the delicate texture of bone china, it was difficult for people to notice it, and it did not affect it. to use.

Balaam continued to drink tea as if nothing had happened.

As if to ease the embarrassment slightly, Tina spoke again:

"...Let me draw a portrait for you. I will plant a piece of golden sunflower for you. That color suits you best. When the flower blooms, I will ask someone to cut it and plant it on the grassy slope near the water. On the ground, under a green horse chestnut tree, lay layer after layer, and you come to my house, take off your clothes and lie down among the flowers, and in the morning or in the afternoon, I will paint for you."

Su Shi glanced at his hands resting on the small mahogany coffee table——

Tina was still holding his hand, and she continued to talk: "You can come to my house, I am learning oil painting recently, and I can keep painting until you are satisfied."

"..."

Su Shi thought to himself: Does she want to engage in art, or does she want to engage in...

If I think too much, I don’t seem to respect art very much, but it seems that this situation cannot be naturally associated with dedicating to art... Besides, many painters have stories that they have to tell with their models, some are lovers who become models, and some are models Changing lovers, some even like to draw men/prostitutes who have an affair with themselves... It doesn't count if he misunderstood a little... too vulgar?

These words were not meant to be true at first, but now he really can't pull out his hand easily and naturally, the other party's enthusiasm is coming through through the force... politely say "that's my honor", maybe it's true will be invited...

Maybe the other party really relied on his sincerity for art, and couldn't help but make an emotional leak, hoping that he could become a model for her painting practice. A painter always needs to face the model before he becomes a master Or the model's constant drawing practice...

But Su Shi felt that he did not have the quality to be a nude model, after all he was a young man, if there was any inappropriate reaction, it would be too...

How to avoid embarrassment and politely refuse...

His place is next to the bookshelf.

There are some books introducing plants and flowers on the bookshelf. Judging from the way they are placed, they seem to be used for decoration. Most of the books are embroidered and hooked with golden lace. There is a photo frame placed diagonally in the corner of the third floor. There is a holographic photo inside, like replaying a certain movie clip, repeating the blooming and withering of a yellow rose.Through the gaps in the hollowed-out wooden bookshelf, you can see the lily of the mountain climbing down from the shelf on the other side like a waterfall, as well as various landscape vases of different styles...

On the far left side of the third shelf closest to Su Shi, there is a stack of books. The silver hardcover book on the top is trimmed with white lace and tied horizontally with a lace ribbon. You can see the title of "Extraterrestrial Plant Illustrated Handbook" under the rose flower, but if that's all, books with this type of binding are still very common in Tulip Manor. What's unusual is...the cover inside the lace border, covering With a layer of green and smooth and delicate moss...

Su Shi decided to change the subject within 0.1 seconds:

"You really flatter me..."

He was about to pretend to be attracted by the books on the bookshelf by accident, and said, "What is that, is it real moss?" when he heard——

"Tina,"

Balan said, "Illustrated Handbook of Endangered Plants, get it for me."

The male servant on one side leaned forward in Miss Tina's direction slightly uneasy, but stopped immediately.Tina glanced at Balan as if to study his face, but the lace made her eyes look hazy and unreal.

"Okay."

She said that because she was about to turn around, she let go of Su Shi's right hand.And Su Shi slid his left hand out from her palm at the right time, stretched out his slender arm towards the bookshelf first, and said softly:

"Let me do it."

He changed the book in his left hand to his right, handed it to Balan, and took his left hand back on the armrest of the chair.

Everything seemed very natural, Su Shi thought to himself.

The male servant on the side showed a little uneasiness again. Although his face still maintained the standard expression of an excellent male servant, his stiffened body still revealed his unnaturalness.

The chairs are placed in pairs next to each other, and the adjacent two groups of chairs are separated by a distance of one and a half feet, which is used as a passable aisle, but the distance can be adjusted according to each other's needs, unlike the lunch room Like the chairs, each one must be kept at exactly the same distance. When the servants help the ladies and gentlemen to pull and place the chairs, there is no tolerance for a millimeter of error. They must rely on the pattern on the carpet or other things to find a way Find the spot on the chair.Balan and Su Shi are located on both sides of the door—probably to avoid facing the door with their backs, and the distance between them is farther than other chairs.

Even if Su Shi had a long hand, Balan still had to stretch his hand far away to catch it.

If it is done by noble men with the same seniority or close status, there is no need to be too demanding.But as a "human businessman", making such casual actions is somewhat offensive...

But if you really want to think about it like this, it is a very strange picture to have a human being and a small nobleman join a family gathering of a high-ranking nobleman.

Despite the internal obsessive-compulsive disorder, the manservant stood aside respectfully.

Balan didn't read Su Shi either, so he just took the handed book and casually flipped through it.

What exactly does Balaam mean?

Didn't he mean what they thought to that human being?

However, such a stunner might not mean this?

But if he really meant that, according to Balaam's personality, he would never be so vague, leaving room for speculation.

From a very young age, Balaam's dominance has been vividly displayed——

If he wants, he can be as generous as a little king; but if his parents force him to be a landlord when he doesn't want to share, he can take every "golden apple" made of pure gold. Knocked into two deep canine tooth cavities...

Maybe it's just very simple, I can't understand Tina's appearance?

...Speaking of which, Balaam is indeed a late bloomer.

Although he is an adult, he has never been in love, nor has he ever had a "lover".

Well, it probably doesn't mean that...

There were several male and female blood clans, got up and went to Su Shi and Tina.Surrounded by four or five people, chatting with each other, Su Shi's figure loomed behind those waists outlined by dresses and dresses.

Balaam flipped through the "Illustrated Book" unhappily.

He suddenly turned to Louis on the side and said, "I heard that Xerxes lent Lazer Castle to the Lazer government for free?"

This topic started too abruptly, even Louis was a little slow: "...isn't it?"

Balan said again: "He really wanted to break his head to come up with such a trick to save a sum of maintenance fees for the castle. In this era, the guy who owns twelve castles is really pitiful."

"..."

Now Louis was even more unable to answer the conversation. As a low-ranking nobleman, it was obviously inappropriate to discuss a duke in public.Also, he doesn't have a castle, and it's beyond his ability to continue the conversation.

Who knew that Duke Xerxes was poor?No matter how poor you are, there are still twelve castles... Anyway, the poorest nobles must live better than ordinary commoners. The poor nobles are nothing more than unable to support their own manors and servants, so they feel miserable haha , but when it was time to hunt, he would still pack up and go out. Even if Duke Xerxes was worried about money, it was not his turn to say that he was poor.

But everyone knows that the Sisera family is one of the most profitable families in Scarlet——

Balaam has known since he was a child that he would bring a clean and well-cut lamb to the door to sell the lamb blood from his small farm—ever since he accidentally saw that the lamb blood he drank came from an ugly, ugly, buttock After the little dirty sheep whose shit was not cleaned, he cried out of anger and started his journey as an aristocratic salesman... Others use their beauty to commit crimes, while Balaam uses it to make money... Even the same healthy He can raise sheep more beautifully than others.It is said that he specially designed the shape for his sheep at the beginning... The private farm belonging to Balan only supplies blood to the members of the family. Of course, it is not free. Balan never relents when he earns money from his family.

In his words: "If even my own family members don't support my business and don't trust me, how can I make money from outsiders?"

Louis knew that there were many companies under the name of Balan, which were not family businesses and were completely created by himself, but Balan was unwilling to say.

People are more mad than people.

Louis chose to remain silent.

Fortunately, Balaam really didn't really want to discuss the issue of Duke Xerxes with him, so he continued to look down at the hand-painted "Illustrated Handbook of Endangered Plants".After turning two pages, Balan raised his head nonchalantly, as if casually glanced at Su Shi, but found that he did not attract any attention.
