"But me, I don't want to be separated from you..." Lance saw the boy turn his head, his almond eyes were full of pleading and grievance, "I want to live with you, just like before."

The sleeves were carefully pinched up and shook, "Are you okay?"

Akira was so gentle and soft that it melted Lance's heart.

When he returned to the hall with his youngest child, Arnold and Fiona also discussed it. This time, the old man's face was much gentler. Looking at the young man like a deer behind him, he said kindly and formally: "Hello Apollo, Sorry to scare you just now. I'm Arnold Patch and this is my wife Fiona, allow us to reintroduce ourselves."

Yao Zai'er was still pinching the corner of Lance's clothes with his fingers, and nodded to him with wet eyes.

"Arnold, Apollo's situation is a bit special, he..." Lance found an excuse, "He doesn't remember the past, he is very strange to this world, everything has to start again, I will bring him by my side first a period of time."

Arnold thought that the young man was just a little introverted, but he didn't expect that this was the reason for being so afraid of people. He immediately imagined a scene in which he had just encountered a disaster at home and was too stimulated to cause amnesia. He immediately felt more pity and looked at his wife. , and said: "Fiona and I are sincerely willing to treat this child as a family. It is fine if he is willing to live in the palace. We are not too old to walk and need someone to take care of us."

Lance snorted lightly, "Don't worry about it, it's my business to serve you"

Geba Dun also smiled innocently and said: "Yes, teacher, teacher's wife, there is still me here."

"And me! And me!" Molly snapped.

Arnold raised his beard, but the curve of his mouth couldn't be covered, "Hmph! Boys, wait another hundred and eighty years!"

Fiona walked over with a gentle smile, and held Yao Zai'er's hand, "Son, you can live wherever you want, but I think you need an identity, a home, don't you? If you want, join Pa The Qi family? We can't replace your parents, but you can have another pair of grandparents who love you."

Yao Zai'er's natural sensitivity allows him to catch the kindness from the other party at the first sight, and he also likes this gentle and kind lady very much.Looking back at Lance, Lance nodded encouragingly at him, and Yao Zaier showed her a typical angelic smile, making Mrs. Fiona dazed.

In the next second, the shoulders were hugged gently and trustingly, and a faint milky smell came from the boy's neck, with a naive and clean breath, and the fluffy little head rubbed against her neck Crap, Mrs. Fiona's heart was beating violently "puff puff puff". Over the years, she had never been approached so intimately by any child. She was obviously not related by blood, but the desire for protection and affection that were ready to come out was almost Can't hide from her face.

She was cautious, and just about to raise her hand to wrap around the boy's back, she felt her arms empty, and the boy was grabbed out by Lance.

Hugging and rubbing the neck, the next one is to lick the face.

Three familiar moves in a row, Lance interrupted the last one with a blank face.

Fiona looked at him dissatisfied, "Oh dear Lance, you are too strict with your brother! It's impolite to interrupt others' greetings at will."

"It's not too late. It's time to take him to apply for a household registration and apply for a personal terminal." Lance said seriously.

"Is this so urgent?" Mrs. Fiona was puzzled.

"Well, if we don't do it again, we won't be able to keep up with the freshmen entering this year."

As soon as this remark came out, several people were stunned. It seemed that no one thought that Apollo still needed to go to school.

Gbadden asked hesitantly: "Boss, Apollo... how old is he?"

"Eighteen," Lance replied.He once asked Apollo this question, but the child himself couldn't figure it out, and only said that he was almost a hundred years old and had just grown up.

If you are an adult, then treat it as a human juvenile.

"Hey, he should go to military academy!" Gerbatton couldn't help but look up and down Yao Zai'er, no matter how you look at it, he doesn't look like an adult at all...

Just as he was thinking about it, he was bumped by Molly. Unprepared, he stepped back a few steps to the side due to his unhealed injury, and turned his head to accuse the other party of his fierceness with his eyes.

But the more you look at it, the more it looks like you're being coquettish.

After going through the most dangerous stage, Molly knew that there was nothing wrong with the big guy, so she turned back to the old rivalry, but now in the fight, there is always a hint of ambiguity lingering around, every time the confrontation When they look up, they often can't last for a few seconds, and one of them looks away with a blushing face, and the other just smiles silly.

Molly smiled and said disgustedly: "You stupid big man, just Apollo's small arms and legs, you let him go to military school?"

Only then did Gebaton come to his senses, and scratched the back of his head embarrassingly, "Then, how did you arrange it, Boss?"

Seeing that Yao Zai'er was also looking at him curiously, Lance said, "Fei Luo Noble Middle School."

"Zhong...zhongzhong middle school?!" Gbarton and Molly shouted in unison.They think that no matter how they choose, they should go to an ordinary comprehensive university when they are adults!

Middle school is too far away for them, and the impression is that it is a place where a group of furry children play!

Lance said "um", and rubbed Yao Zai'er's fluffy and soft short fur, thinking in his heart, if he wasn't so big, he really wanted to send him to kindergarten.

"Study hard, and take the exam by yourself in the university you want to go to in the future." Looking at the young man opposite, he deliberately joked and said seriously.

Unexpectedly, Yao Zai'er nodded with a bewildered expression.

The well-behaved appearance made Lance's fingers itchy, and he couldn't help pinching his face.

Feiluo Noble High School.The best top-level aristocratic school in the whole Emperor Star is divided into junior high school and high school. Almost all children from noble families graduate there.Lance is also an alumnus of that school.

When seeing His Majesty the new emperor personally driving the aircraft and bringing a young boy to the registration office, the whole school leaders were alarmed, and all of them appeared in the registration hall within 5 minutes.

After 5 minutes, I boarded the aircraft again and left.

The principal waited for the aircraft to disappear, and picked up the form that His Majesty Lance had just filled out:

[Name]: Apollo Patch

【Sex: Male

【Age】: 18

……

The 18-year-old who started high school...problem boy? ?

"Principal...Look at this surname..." The Dean of Academic Affairs beside him pointed tremblingly.

Patch.

"..."

"Is that the Patch I thought?"

"Principal, there is only one family named Patch in the entire empire."

"Isn't Master Gordon the only one reporting to the Patch family this year? When will there be another... named Apollo?"

The Dean of Academic Affairs shook his head, "But His Majesty brought it personally, so it shouldn't be a mistake." Moreover, with the relationship between His Majesty and Dean Arnold Patch, it would definitely not be a casual side branch who could ask him to personally escort him. .

The headmaster's face became serious, "I'll give you an order to put him and Master Gordon in the same class. These elite nobles probably learned the content of the university early at home, and the teachers should be allocated according to the fastest progress."

"Yes."

***

After signing up, Yao Zai'er was brought back to the palace by Lance.

After a simple meal, Lance had business to deal with. Yao Zaier was sitting opposite him, and in front of him was a small tablet that Lance gave him. There were animated color pictures on it, and when he pressed it, it would make a sound.There is also a pen in hand, which can be used to write on the horizontal grid under the tablet.

If someone sees it, they will be surprised to find that this is the most common reading material for children in every household.

Yao Zai'er looked at the painting seriously, and pressed a flower with his finger, and the child's voice on the tablet suddenly played childishly: "Flower—"

Yao Zai'er found it interesting and pressed it again.

"Flower—" "Flower—" "Flower—" "Flower—" "Flower—"

Lance had a headache from being called by a series of "flowers". He put the documents on the table and raised his head, "Apollo, what are you doing?"

"Study!" Yao Zai'er raised his head energetically.

"It's not that you can't read, learn to write hard."

"Oh..." Yao Zai'er was reluctant to let go, and secretly pressed it again.

"flower--"

Receiving Lance's staring gaze, he stuck out his tongue, retracted his fingers, obediently picked up the pen, and learned to write the word "flower" on the horizontal grid below.

Seeing that he had started to learn, Lance lowered his head again and looked at his documents.During the meeting, the convener got up and went to the meeting room next door.

When the meeting was over, when I came back and walked to the door, I heard one after another from inside:

"Blue--" "Blue--" "Blue Sky--" "Blue--" "Blue--" "Blue--" "Blue--"

"........."

Yao Zaier read in his mouth, clicked on all the words with the word "blue" on the tablet, and then began to learn to write stroke by stroke.

Suddenly, a big warm hand came up from behind and wrapped it around his hand. The other arm went around him and leaned on the table.

"The posture of holding the pen is wrong." Lance corrected.

A low and soft voice sounded above his head, and his chin would occasionally touch his hair, and Yao Zai'er suddenly felt an electric current rushing through it, which made his face turn red involuntarily.

Strange... why are you blushing?He rubbed his eyes with the back of his hand, was tapped lightly on the top of his head again, and said in a stern voice, "Concentrate."

Yao Zai'er stopped immediately and stared straight at the tablet. In fact, he didn't know where his mind wandered...

Lance held his hand and patiently led him to write the word "blue".Let go, straighten up, and said with a smile: "I've practiced for a long time, let's go play for a while."

Yao Zai'er nodded, threw away the pen as if fleeing, pushed away the chair and ran to the far window, facing the window.

He didn't dare to let Lance see that his face was flushed abnormally at this time, and the place where his right hand was covered seemed to be still hot and couldn't get rid of the touch just now.

Weird, really weird...

The heartbeat is still so fast.

Are you going to advance again?

Looking at his fast running figure, Lance shook his head helplessly, and there was a trace of indulgence in his blue eyes.

Sure enough, he was still a child, and he couldn't sit still after studying for two hours.

Seeing that the weather outside is so nice, let's take the kids out for a walk after two days of free time.
