[Tutorial] Angry Audrey
Chapter 17
Audrey arrived at the climax of the banquet on time.
In order not to worry her younger brother, she first went back to the place where she used to live to simply wash off the bloody smell, changed into a clean dress, thought about it, and threw away the blood-stained coat.
Originally, she didn't want to trouble Abraham, but the other party kept entangled with her, and Audrey had no choice but to get a ride.
When she rushed to the banquet, she had just stepped through the door when Audrey felt a resentment that could almost be embodied.Holding her breath, she walked through many figures, looked up towards the corner, and saw a little black-haired boy buried in a mountain of presents, and the little blond-haired boy next to him was holding an empty glass, leaning on the table with his arms pillowed Sleep soundly.
The soothing music lingers in the hall, which is indeed a little drowsy.The voices of people talking are not particularly noisy, but the moderate voice is even more drowsy.
She sighed slightly, and seemed to be coaxing her younger brother.It was agreed that I would celebrate his birthday with him, but leaving him here alone, making him wait for so long, no matter who it was, would be angry.
Ignoring Abraham who was calling her name behind her, and ignoring the sudden glances of people around her, Audrey walked straight towards Xanxus.
And Xanxus turned around from the mountain of gifts as if he heard her voice, and happened to meet Audrey's eyes.
Her eyes showed a deeper color under the dim yellow light, and there was a soft light in them, as if there was a soft fire flickering for a moment, and then he saw his frowning expression reflected in her red pupils. face.
He turned his head after only one glance, lay down on the table and silently stared at the juice in front of him, not wanting to say anything more to her.
"Sorry, I have some urgent matters to deal with, so I have been delayed for so long." Seeing his reaction, Audrey didn't intend to explain too much.She understands that it is useless to explain at this moment, it is a fact that she made a slip of the tongue, so admitting her fault is the best answer to him.
Seeing that her younger brother still had no intention of responding to her thoughts, Audrey had no choice but to sit beside him and put the two guns in front of his eyes.
Xanxus was almost instantly attracted to the pair of guns.But as if he wanted to avoid something, he abruptly looked away again.
"This pair of guns made for you, with your name engraved on it. How about it, please forgive my gaffe, Xanxus?"
Audrey smiled flatteringly, and at the same time carefully put her hands on the top of his head, making sure that he had no desire to resist before gently rubbing his hair.
Feeling the temperature of his sister, Xanxus glanced at the smiling Audrey, seeing her smile as usual, his heart softened, and he was about to say something, but then he thought that she had left for so long without even saying hello, Will he leave him without saying a word again in the future?Thinking of this, he couldn't help but get angry again, and he was so cruel that he didn't want to let Audrey go on like this anymore.So he made up his mind to reach out and push her away, gave Audrey a cold squint, ignored her sudden trembling hand, turned around and sulked.
Being treated like this by Xanxus, Audrey was stunned for a long time before withdrawing her hand angrily.
Xanxus was really angry this time.
"I see, Xanxus." Audrey lowered her eyes, her tone trembling slightly. Xanxus was so cruel that he didn't want to talk to her, thinking that she was just cheating, but who knew that when he heard her disappointed voice, he couldn't help but feel distressed, and couldn't help but secretly glanced back a few times.
My elder sister was hanging her head down, like a frustrated ronin, her black hair was hanging down to cover the corners of her eyes, like a veil that half covered the fire, and the surroundings flickered for a moment.All the sounds seemed to go away, only my sister's faint sigh could be heard.
At this time, Dino woke up slowly, blinked his eyes a few times, and stood up excitedly after seeing Audrey clearly.
"Sister Audrey, you are back!"
He was a little dazed just after waking up, so he didn't notice the atmosphere at all, and he just felt happy seeing Audrey.
Audrey gave him a forced smile. Seeing her listless expression, the excitement on the child's face faded, so he stopped beside her in a daze, and tentatively pulled her clothes, Audrey Li remained silent the whole time, and didn't go to see him again.
The awkward two always refused to say a word. Dino, who was caught in the middle, looked at Xanxus and then at Audrey, wanting to say something to cheer up the atmosphere, but seeing that the two of them were not interested, he just shrank back in the end. Went aside.
I don't know how long it was silent, Xanxus suddenly felt his body being wrapped into a warm embrace.When she reacted, Audrey hugged him tightly with both hands.
Her breath was right next to him, Xanxus could even feel the cold breath on her body, as if through this coldness, he saw the scenes of his sister wandering alone on the street in the past five years.
When I first left the town, my sister was almost as old as I am now.
How did my sister persist?
Xanxus didn't struggle, but rested his head on her arm.
The clock struck zero.It was probably the ancient bell of the church not far away. The sound was deep and loud, sometimes agitated and sometimes calm, as if it was constantly calling for something.
Finally, the heavy atmosphere dissipated, and she rushed back. Now that she was very tired, feeling that her brother had no intention of struggling, Audrey quietly relaxed her body and leaned back.
Although the battle ended quickly, she didn't feel easy.
The previous scenery was still lingering in her mind. The inexplicable tearing sensation brought her not only a momentary pain, but also a strange trance feeling. The soul seemed to be pulled out of the body for a moment. As if she no longer belonged to her, apart from the blurry blood in front of her eyes, she seemed to be standing in the perspective of a third person, and she could faintly see herself struggling.
But what is going on, we have to wait until Evan recovers.For some reason, her intuition reminded her that it is better to continue to enjoy the time with Xanxus for now, and it seems that something she can't even imagine will happen afterwards.
The banquet was still going on, and it didn't fall into silence for a while because of the ringing of the zero clock.It looks like it will last until two or three o'clock.
"Happy birthday, Xanxus." Audrey's voice sounded hoarse above her head.Only a few of them could hear the deliberately lowered voice.
Xanxus stared at her wrist without responding.He saw a circle of tiny scratches on her wrist, which showed inconspicuous orange-red marks under the dim light, which looked a bit like a painting.
Dino left a few steps and poured Audrey a cup of tea and handed it to her. Audrey smiled at him to express his gratitude.Indeed, after hurrying back, her throat was a little thirsty.
After watching Audrey drink the tea, Dino looked at the speechless Xanxus and said, "Xanxus, happy birthday, don't be so expressionless. Sister Audrey is back, today is your birthday , be happy."
Xanxus glared at Dino coldly. Although he acted indifferent, he never pushed Audrey away. Instead, he greedily occupied the position beside her, like a lion whose domain has been violated. Warned Dino to leave quickly.
Dino scratched his face and looked up at Audrey. Seeing the helpless look on her face, knowing his little friend's character, he had no choice but to shake his head, took the empty juice glass from before and walked away.
Xanxus raised his head to look at her after seeing Dino go away.
"Where have you been?" He didn't intend to suppress his curiosity, so he asked directly.When looking at Audrey, there was worry that couldn't be hidden in those red pupils.
Audrey straightened her body and held his hand.
"I went to Evan's side for a while. There is a big problem with him that I need to solve. If I don't go, I'm afraid something bad will happen."
"You care about him that much?" Xanxus frowned, his tone very unpleasant.
"To me, you are the most important. But Evan really has a reason not to go—"
"You don't have something to hide from me, sister?"
Xanxus interrupted Audrey suddenly.
Audrey's expression froze, and the hand that held him couldn't help trembling.She hurriedly hid her expression and looked into her younger brother's eyes. In those red pupils, which were exactly like her own, there was a see-through calmness. It seemed that as long as she was thinking, Xanxus would be able to guess immediately.Even so, Audrey still hesitated whether to tell him everything.
From the perspective of her family, she didn't want Xanxus to worry, and she didn't want him to be involved in this matter.The sole purpose of her coming to her younger brother was to accompany him and sweep away any harmful wolves, tigers and leopards around him.
If you let him follow him to investigate that matter, although the progress may be faster, what if he accidentally gets injured?
Although Audrey would not pamper her younger brother too much, she still felt distressed seeing him hurt.In front of her was the person she loved the most, and she couldn't help thinking about the worst.
Seeing her younger brother's eyes hesitating again and again, Audrey gritted her teeth, and remained firm and did not look away.
"Sorry, there are some things I can't tell you."
Hearing this, Xanxus unexpectedly didn't react, just nodded slightly.
"I have no intention of meddling in your private affairs. However, if what you are going to do will hurt you, I hope you can tell me the truth."
Seeing Xanxus' very sensible appearance, Audrey couldn't help feeling guilty.
She subconsciously looked away, and then turned her head hastily after she realized it.
In front of her younger brother, she was always unable to keep her composure.
Xanxus saw her reaction.Although he vaguely guessed something, he didn't point it out.He has lived with his elder sister since he was born, and it is normal to understand each other's minds, almost tacit to the point where a single look can convey each other's thoughts; even if they are separated by five years, the two of them have not changed much in essence.
"I know." She suddenly squeezed his hand tightly, "But don't worry Xanxus, with my strength, I won't get injured so easily."
Seeing his sister's smile, Xanxus heaved a sigh of relief, finally willing to relax and hug her back and forth.
The double guns on the table glowed in the light.
Audrey rubbed her brother's head, then suddenly let go of her hand as if remembering something, bent down slightly, and kissed his forehead.
"Another year older, my brother," she said.
In order not to worry her younger brother, she first went back to the place where she used to live to simply wash off the bloody smell, changed into a clean dress, thought about it, and threw away the blood-stained coat.
Originally, she didn't want to trouble Abraham, but the other party kept entangled with her, and Audrey had no choice but to get a ride.
