Before Dior came to the Joestar family, Joannis's favorite recreational activity was climbing trees on the back hill, then lying on the tree trunks, eating honey, and enjoying the time alone.

Unlike ordinary noble daughters, she is taught piano, ballroom dancing, etiquette and other compulsory skills and female virtues by tutors.In fact, she is a bit too energetic, she is very good at climbing, riding, and various outdoor activities skills.If girls hadn't been banned from football, she might have become a star quarterback on the school's team.

Joannes climbed up to the window sill on the second floor along the vines with almost no effort.Trying not to make any noise, she tiptoedly opened the window as far as she could get in, and then jumped into the room like a bear.

Safe on base!

Joannes glanced at Dio, the pale-skinned blond boy's face was still red, he seemed to be still fast asleep, ignorant of the movements of the outside world.

She was slightly relieved, and when she was about to close the window and leave, Dio, who was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Joannes expressionlessly.

"……what are you doing?"

... Ugh!

"You, you're awake, Dio."

Joannes shuddered suddenly, she turned around slowly, and then showed Dio a slightly guilty smile.

Too bad, he still found out... Forget it, the worst case scenario is to be scolded by your father after finding out!She hasn't been caught yet though, and she still has time to escape.

"I just passed your room, did I wake you up?"

Joannes said embarrassingly, then turned and closed the window, "How do you feel now? Are you feeling better?"

"It's a pity I haven't died yet."

Dio said strangely. He slowly got up from the bed. Although his face was hot with fever, his attitude was still very severe, "I'm asking what are you wearing? Why did you crawl through my window?" Come in?"

And how on earth did Qiao Qiao climb up!Don't say that this is not something that noble daughters can do, even those guys in the acrobatic troupe can't do it, is she a wild monkey? !

This reminded him of a book he had just finished reading last week. In the story, there was a classic scene of the hero climbing the window sill.But Jojo is not the leading actor, nor is it romantic at all!

"It's not important. I have to leave now and explain to you later."

However, Joannes didn't intend to give a reason at all. Dio stared and saw Jojo waved to him perfunctorily, and then ran out of his room rudely.

When Dio reacted, he was almost blown out.

Without any reason, Dio guessed that Jojo must have slipped out to play while he was sick and weak!He knew she only cared about the music festival!

Although he didn't care how Jojo felt about him, her heartless appearance still stabbed him.Who does she think she is?While her stepbrother got sick and had a fever because of her fault and had to lie in bed like a piece of shit, she dressed up like a tomboy and ran around, maybe meeting her little boyfriend, Errie... ...Thinking of these possibilities, Dio became furious, and his face became even redder.

Jojo was so arrogant that Dio couldn't help pulling the quilt and roaring. When he recovered from his illness, he must teach her a lesson to make her more polite.

However, not long after, when Dior was still huddled under the quilt and sulking, suddenly his door was opened again without warning.

——You don't need to guess, you know it must be Qiao Qiao, she still hasn't learned how to knock before entering his room!

Dio turned over and glared at Joannes who had changed back into her skirt.When he was organizing his sentence and wanted to hurt her with harsh words, Qiao Qiao suddenly rushed forward and gave him a deep hug.

? !

Dio froze.

In other words, he was petrified by Jojo's nonsensical, unreasonable behavior like a normal person.

Perhaps because of the high fever, his mind went blank, and he froze there motionless, as if frozen.It wasn't until Jojo let go of him that Dio slowly realized that his amber eyes were full of disbelief, and he felt his throat was dry.

"……what?"

JoJo has a soft body, and she's not exactly a tomboy.Unlike the dry, smelly people in the slums, she smelled good, but not the pungent smell of noble women who were very deliberately powdered.

He didn't understand that Qiao Qiao Mingming ran and rolled in the fields all day, but she didn't smell bad like those dirty ones, yes, she smelled very healthy, like golden wheat after sun drying, Fresh fruits.

But Jojo doesn't attract him, she doesn't deserve his attention!

Damn, why is she hugging him?She clearly knew that they didn't really have that good relationship!

"Jojo! What do you want to do!"

He stared at Jojo sternly and questioned. He remembered that he had clearly warned him not to get too close to the boy, but she was still so defenseless.Damn it, if she can treat him like this, it means she will treat others like this.

Thinking of this, Dio felt unacceptable, and he began to be extremely grateful that he had driven away Eli, otherwise the boy must have known very well how he could benefit from Jojo...

But at this moment he couldn't restrain the flushing of his face, damn it, it must be related to the fever, making him look really stupid.

However, Joannes didn't seem to realize that there was anything wrong, her blue eyes were so innocent, and she looked at him very seriously and said, "I just want to tell you that I have never really understood you all this time, just It's also not fair to directly treat you as a hopeless villain. I won't do that again, Dio, and I think we can maybe get to know each other again and stop making each other's lives a mess."

"……Aha?"

Dio stared at her. He suspected that the high fever had burned his brain, or that he was hallucinating, and he was very confused by Jojo's words.

"...What are you talking about? Jojo?"

The person whose life has become a mess is obviously Qiao Qiao, what qualifications does she have to say such a thing?He will take away Qiao Qiao's life and everything she owns, he doesn't need to reconcile with Qiao Qiao!

"I've been to where you used to live."

When Dio was in a very bad mood and wanted to satirize her with vicious words, what Joannes said made Dio froze suddenly.

The room suddenly became extremely quiet, and Dio's expression was extremely shocked. For the first time, he felt a panic-like emotion until Joannes continued to speak.

"Honestly, I've been hating you too, because you've been treating me like a sadist for the last few months. So I found out about your ex-neighbor and asked her about you."

Dio's ears were buzzing. When Jojo told him that he knew about his father's abuse of him and his mother, he could hardly maintain his sanity for a moment, and countless terrifying thoughts flashed through his mind.

Everything he tried to bury, his disgraceful past, was completely exposed in front of Jojo.

Jojo has been to the place where he used to live?What did she know?Damn it, his neighbor will definitely betray him without hesitation, if Jojo finds out what he has done... Maybe she should disappear before she has a chance to tell everything...

No, maybe she doesn't know yet...

Cold sweat was seeping from Dio's back, and he stared very nervously into Joannes' eyes, from the way she looked like she was sympathizing with him...why?Had the neighbor not told her what he was like?Or did she misunderstand something?

Then he heard Joannes tell him everything that happened to her in the slums, including how she gave his neighbor a shilling, and she was so unbelievably candid that she even told Dio herself Doubt him.Dio couldn't believe such a stupid person, and she even expressed sympathy for what happened to him-although this is not the reason for him to treat others so viciously, she hopes to get to know him again and give each other a chance , become a real family.

……Are you serious?Poor Jojo, she is such a naive, idealist... She is really wasting her talent...

Dio was suddenly thankful that Jojo was a fool, he was finally relieved, it seemed that she still didn't know anything, and felt sympathy for what happened to him, even though he didn't care anymore.

He wants to laugh, it seems that the god of luck will always favor him, maybe this is an opportunity, he can use Jojo's sympathy to achieve his purpose...

"We all lost our mothers, but I think Mr. Brando's actions are unforgivable. He didn't cherish you well. He is not a man."

However, Joannes's words suddenly woke up Dio, or stung him, "I am so sorry that he made you lose your mother, Dio. People say that you are lucky in your life to come to our house." , but it’s not.”

... Who does she think she is?Why is she so self righteous?

Dio stared at Joannes, opened his mouth slightly, and wanted to say something.

But in the end Dio just yelled at her.

"...Get out of my room, Jojo!"
