Textbook flirting

After Xilin fell asleep in the room, Albert turned off the light for him.Afterwards, only the lamp farthest from the room was left, the kitchen lamp.

Albert is feeding the two dogs in the kitchen.

These two little things were entrusted to the owner of the shop downstairs because of Xilin's presence, and now they can finally go home.

"I've wronged you, the kid in the room has too many things."

Albert rubbed the fluffy heads of the two dogs with his big palms.

Albert squatted down, sitting next to the two wolfhounds, recalling the marks on his body.

Last night, Xilin was ill, moving restlessly in Albert's arms, making him always uncomfortable, especially the long hair, which made Albert a little itchy.

So Albert rolled up Xilin's long hair, and only then did he discover a little secret.

On the back of Schilling's neck, usually covered by long hair or a high collar, there is a tattoo. The tattoo is a Gothic-style "O" surrounded by roses.

But I don't know what kind of tattoo was used for this tattoo. I think the color was very dark at the beginning, and it was hard to get off. After washing it several times, the color is uneven, but there is still no particularly good effect.

Presumably the owner wanted to remove it but couldn't find a way.

This... After washing so many times, it must be very painful in such a place on the neck?

There are even traces of sharp objects on the tattoo. Albert looked at it all night and saw that the owner tried to scratch the skin with other things because he didn't want the tattoo, leaving scars on the skin that could cover the tattoo. .

That's the neck.

Why are you so persistent in getting rid of it?

Albert frowned slightly.

If you don't like it so much, why did you get tattoos in the first place?

"Clang!"

Albert was startled, then got up and went to the room.

Sure enough, the glass shattered into slag on the ground, and the water spilled all over the floor.

Xilin looked innocently at the wreckage on the ground. Seeing Albert coming, he had to bend down to pick it up.

"do not move!"

Albert pushed Shirin back and bent over to pick it up himself.

"I just want to take my phone..." Xilin said with a dry smile, "My phone vibrated just now."

Albert handed the mobile phone on the bed table to Xilin.

Xilin unlocked the screen, and saw two missed calls from Nuoer hanging on it.

Shirin glanced at Albert subconsciously.

Albert was not interested in prying into Xilin's privacy, so he picked up the glass shards, wiped the water off the floor, and left.

Only then did Shirin send Noel a text message.

{What's wrong?It's not convenient for me to speak now. }

{Did you hear about the case of a teenager who died suddenly on the street because of Estella? }

{Ok. }

After a pause, a new text message came from Noel.

{We need your help. }

Xilin thought for a moment, replied with an "ok" gesture, and made an appointment with Nuoer for a meeting the next day before deleting the chat history, lying down and continuing to sleep.

The captain's coat was really warm, and the bed was soft.

Gee.

Xilin pursed her lips.

I slept at Albert's house intermittently for another day, and the next day Xilin was almost better, and wanted to go back to the bar.

"Then you promise me you won't drink."

"Uh-huh."

"Call me tonight."

"Uh-huh."

In this way, Xilin was finally put back in his territory, and he was even a little uncomfortable for a moment.

Go crazy.

This is the place where I have lived for decades.

Xilin didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Then the days passed, and Xilin was well-behaved and didn't drink for one day, secretly drank the next day, and let go on the third day.

Albert knew that the wild horse couldn't stand it, so there was nothing he could do except persuade him a few more words.

And this night, Hess brought people here again.

"I thought the boss would never come again, but I'm so sad..."

The box is still the best wine, the most lively scene.

Hess sat with his legs crossed beside Xilin and smiled, "Come to say goodbye to you."

Xilin was taken aback.

Hess shook his head and said, "I'm leaving. The market here is basically stable, and I'm going to find another place to look."

Shirin can probably understand.

Now that Will is back, and King Charles is already old, the heir must fall between Will and Hess. The two of them are naturally playing games and competing intentionally or unconsciously, competing for the market.

Now both Will and Hess are anxious to open up new markets to gain more money and power.

"This way... I'm so reluctant. Will the boss go back to the base?" Xilin poured Hess a drink.

"Maybe, maybe not, look at the markets in other places. If you are really reluctant, you can go with me." Hess pursed his lips and said, "Dare you?"

Xilin was taken aback.

What does it mean?

Jon, who was standing aside, gave Shirin a wink.

Hurry up and agree!

Hess gave Schilling a second chance to seek refuge.

Hess shook the wine glass in his hand and said: "Be my lover and help me manage the people below. I will give you more and more wealth and power, and maybe one day you can become a character like Will. In the future, I will inherit As for the position of King Charlie, how good it is that you are one person under one person and above ten thousand people."

Xilin lowered his head and smiled, "Oh my god, how can I be so favored by the boss."

Hess raised his eyebrows and said, "I want an answer."

"I……"

Xilin leaned on the sofa and hesitated.

Jon said coldly from behind: "Xilin Leonard, you always have to make a choice. Because of greed and uncertainty, you don't choose anyone, and neither side will get it in the end."

"I...then I'll go with the boss." Xilin took a deep breath and said, "Then I don't have to be a wine accompaniment to see people's faces, just wait for the boss to cover me. As long as the boss is not afraid of Will...I am not afraid ,"

"It's just a fledgling prince. I'd like to see if he dares to steal someone from me." Hess smiled and raised his glass to clink with Xilin.

After Hess left, Jon paused, turned around and smiled at Shirin, "You've finally figured it out, you should have taken refuge with Hess long ago."

"I didn't expect that Hess would come back to recruit me again." Xilin couldn't help crying and said, "I love me so much, this is it."

Jon shrugged and said: "Maybe there is not much love, but the boss and Will have always been at odds, and the two have been fighting openly and secretly for so many years. Whoever gets you is also a demonstration and victory."

In addition, Xilin was good-looking in the first place, and he had put a lot of effort into Hess. Even if Xilin refused this time, Jon believed that there would be a third time.

"See you at the pier at noon tomorrow." Jon threw a boat ticket to Shirin.

"Don't miss the appointment."

Xilin collected the ticket, looked at the mess in the box, and the Estrella brought by Hess was still thrown on the table, and shook his head.

"Shirin Leonard."

Xilin was startled, and turned around to see Albert standing beside him, holding a thermos cup in his hand. Combined with the current appearance of this box, it looks like a daughter-in-law who came to catch rape, as desolate as possible.

Shirin laughed softly.

this person...

Albert hit the soft cotton with a bad breath, feeling very aggrieved.

"You said you would never associate with Hess again."

Xilin shrugged and said, "Have I changed my mind? By the way, the captain happened to be here, so I'll tell you here too."

Xilin took a deep breath, stood up holding the wine bottle and said, "Captain, I'm really sorry. But I have to resign as adjutant, and I won't go to class after that."

……

Albert said blankly, "Why."

"I... I'm going to go with Hess next."

"Why? Because of the mission? Xilin Leonard!" Albert shouted in a low voice, "Be sober! There are many ways to accomplish our goal, and sneaking in is the most stupid one!"

"It's the captain who should be sober, isn't the captain himself worried about putting in undercover agents and raising informants?" Xilin said with a smile: "It's also very good for me, I don't have to be a wine companion anymore, I can go to count the money good day."

"Can't I do it for you?" Albert said bluntly.

"Yes. But I didn't choose you." Xilin took out the bank card Albert had given him earlier from his pocket, stuffed it back into his hand and said, "Keep it for yourself, Captain."

As Albert said before, the bank card contained all his savings, and he just handed over his all and his sincerity, just wanting to give Xilin peace of mind, but now the card is being sent back intact. came back.

"Xilin, I won't let you go."

"You can't control me." Xilin patted Albert on the shoulder and said, "Good night."

After speaking, he turned and left, and specifically asked the bar security guard not to allow Albert to follow.

asshole……!

Albert clenched his hands into fists.

This fool!

Albert called Trish immediately after leaving the bar.

Trish was the guy he'd planted with Hess.

"Check, tell me what time the ship Hess is leaving tomorrow!"

It's not interesting to stop people today, there is plenty of time tomorrow.

Albert was trying to find a hotel nearby to check in, but received an unexpected call.

It's Yu Shuyun.

"What's the matter? What's the matter, Mr. Yu?"

"I want to speak to the captain about Schilling. Where is the captain? I'll find you!"

His tone seemed a little irritable.

"I'm at the bar, let's meet at the cafe across the street."

After the two met, they didn't go into the cafe. After all, it was a public place and it was difficult to talk.

Yu Shuyun got into Albert's car directly, and Albert asked while driving, "What's wrong?"

Yu Shuyun didn't exchange pleasantries with Albert, and cut straight to the point: "Noel seems to have reached an agreement with Xilin recently, asking Xilin and Hess to go to the empire to find a new base!"

Albert paused, nodded and said, "I just found out, and I will stop him."

Yu Shuyun was taken aback, she didn't expect Albert to be so direct.

He thought Albert and Noel thought the same thing...

Albert said: "There are many ways."

Yu Shuyun said with a low smile: "Nuoer and Xilin take their careers and goals very seriously, very very seriously. They are the kind of caring and selfish people who isolate them because they don't want to hurt other people."

Albert was taken aback.

Yu Shuyun said: "I always knew the reason why Nuoer rejected me, but... I didn't want to give up."

That's why he practiced marksmanship with Xilin, practiced frantically, until his hands were blue.

"The same is true for Xilin. I heard that the captain was hunted down by Prince Will, right?"

Albert thumped the steering wheel heavily.

damn it.
