Did the male lead change his ways today?

"Oh yes! I met Eli and he helped me!"

When he heard that name, Dio felt as if someone poured cold water on his back, and he gradually couldn't control the polite mask on his face, especially Jojo showed a happy expression, happily talking to him what just happened.

"I fell off my horse and rolled all the way down the hill. When I woke up, I found that my leg was broken. I thought I was going to be trapped here all night, but Eli happened to be collecting herbs nearby. He heard me. The cry for help, I found me here. Do you think this will be an arrangement of fate? This is too coincidental, he moved to a nearby village with his parents, learning the skills of a doctor, he told me that he wants to be like his father To be a great physician..."

Eri, it's all Eri...

Dio never cared about the boy of Ben Ludo, who was a nobody, and if it wasn't for Jojo having a crush on him, there wouldn't even be any intersection between them.But thinking of JoJo and Eli playing happily in the creek gave him another stabbing pain in his chest.

Jojo's words made him feel irritated, especially the statement of "fate". In fact, most of the reasons for his losing control of emotions every day are Jojo's fault.

Although Eri is an honest, quiet, weak boy, maybe it would be a suitable marriage partner for JoJo now.But he has to make sure that after George's death, she can only marry her when she has no inheritance rights. At that time, he will be her elder brother to arrange a marriage partner for her...or she can never marry.

Dio didn't want to hear Jojo continue talking about Eri, so he interrupted her viciously and said, "Okay, I know Jojo, so what about that coward now? He left you and left?"

"Don't say that about Eli, he's a good boy and he wouldn't hurt me."

Jojo was a little annoyed at once, she didn't like Dior slandering her friends like this every time, and defended Eli, saying, "Eri cares about my reputation, so he went back to the village to ask for help. He also brought food and water I left it to me, and built a fire for me to keep the beasts from approaching, and he didn't leave me alone."

...Damn it, why is she so willing to believe that boy?Are you so sure that he will come back to find her?It's annoying...

Then she looked at Dio again, and asked suspiciously, "By the way, why are you here, Dio?

That's because after you rushed out with Diego and them like a madman, he had to keep up with you in order to prevent you from being tricked by Diego.I heard that you disappeared, so I have been looking for you around here for a long time.Of course, this is not because he is worried about Qiao Qiao, but because he does not want the inheritance he can inherit to shrink.

But he didn't want to tell Jojo these things, it would make him look ashamed.

"It's not important. The important thing is that I found you, right? Now I have to take you back. Everyone is looking for you."

He said that he was about to drag Jojo up from the ground and start to put out the bonfire on the ground, but Jojo shook his head persistently, "But Eli went back to ask the adults for help, he will keep his promise, if they come back and find me I'm going to be worried if I'm gone. Dio, I want to wait a little longer for Eli so he can rest assured that I'm fine."

"..."

...What the hell is Jojo talking about?God, how could she think of waiting for that boy?Is it necessary to care about those who don't care?

Dio looked at her sullenly, a red flag that made him realize he should move faster.

He hated Eli, the country boy who always appeared beside Jojo like a ghost, even if he drove him away, he still couldn't make him feel at ease.If Jojo and Eli are allowed to keep in touch, there is a good chance that they will rekindle their old relationship... well, this word is a bit too much, he means that if they re-emerge in love, it is very dangerous, and Eli will put Jojo If the focus of his life is all pulled away, he may lose his control over Jojo.

He has to stop this from happening!Dio roared in his heart, he couldn't let Jojo and Eli meet again.

But Dio knew how to persuade her, so he quickly adjusted his expression, pretending to be thinking about her, and said, "Don't worry about Eli, after you go back, ask the housekeeper to write to Mr. Benrudo As long as you are safe. You have been missing for a long time. You have to consider our father. He is obviously more worried about you than the children of Ban Luduo. Promise me, Qiao Qiao, don’t let my father feel sorry for you. He only has one daughter .”

...it was clear that using George's name would always work, and Joanice flinched immediately.

She struggled very hard, then nodded.

"You're right, Dio, I really shouldn't make Dad sad anymore, I'll go back with you, and I'll write to Eli to explain and apologize."

"This is the way to behave like a decent lady." Dio nodded in satisfaction, unable to restrain the triumphant arc of the corner of his mouth.

"But I'm going to leave a message for Eli and tell him that you've found me and brought me back, otherwise it's very rude." She stared at Dio seriously and said, "Lend me a pen. "

"...What?" Dio froze, looking at her in surprise.

"I know you keep your notebook and pen with you, Dio, can you lend me a few?"

...who would take that on a horse ride!Dio subconsciously wants to refute, but Jojo's eyes look as if he is sure that he must have those things, and he knows that if she doesn't achieve her goal, she won't give up.In order to save time and prevent Jojo and Eli from meeting again, Dio reluctantly took out the notebook from his breast pocket and handed her the pen together.

"Hurry up, don't make father wait too long."

"I know."

Jojo started writing on the paper quickly, and Dio couldn't help but want to see what she wrote, but he still restrained the idea.Until Jojo tore off the letter she had written and pressed it under the stone.

"In this way, if Eli can't find me, he won't be worried." Joannes said seriously.

Dio snorted noncommittally, he looked at Joannes coolly, and kept swearing at her in his heart.

Fortunately, he took Jojo back before Eli came back.She's really heavy, not at all like the smaller girls, she's like a man!But she is very fragrant...

Dio could only walk back with her on his back, Jojo's weight made it difficult for him to move forward, and his self-esteem made him unable to stop.But Dio realized that he can't spend all his time reading books all day long, he should start exercising, otherwise if he fights with Jojo, he won't be able to beat her at all... Jojo spends at least half of his time exercising every day!

When they returned to the official road, they saw the British soldiers and others who were dispatched to look for Qiao Qiao were already waiting for them.Dio is last in a rivalry with Jonny and Diego, so they have to go back and get help.The soldiers stationed here to collect tolls are like bandits, but they are happy to help find a nobleman's daughter back and get a good reward.

They notified Joestar's family of this matter, and Mr. Robert hurriedly arranged for a carriage to come over. Dio handed Jojo to those people. He showed a flawless smile and publicized everything he had done.When those people were fawning around Jojo, Dio was out of breath, he took off his coat and threw it on the ground, looking at them indifferently, as if everything that happened there had nothing to do with him.

Jojo, he still hated Jojo...but maybe not that much.

Although he was adopted by the saint George, people would never really consider him a member of the Joestar family.In the eyes of outsiders, he is just an adopted son, but at home, even though the servants are afraid of him, they treat him with care, but he will never be the same as Jojo.He knew that noble name had nothing to do with him, but one day, he would take that name and get everything from the Joestar family.

Because of Jojo's broken bone, his adoptive father decided to take them back to the countryside in advance, and let the private doctor of Joestar's family come for treatment.

This is the only thing that makes him happy, he can finally say goodbye to the two bitch boys, Jonny and Diego, in advance.Just before leaving, Diego warmly invited Jojo to watch his professional games after recovery. Of course, Jojo agreed without hesitation, including Jonny who also invited her.He really didn't understand why Jojo could always easily get the attention of bad boys?Obviously she is just a rude, disrespectful and innocent girl...

The 14-year-old's summer vacation ended up being spent with Jojo's broken bones.

In order to show George that he is a good brother, Dio had to reluctantly find Jojo to read with her every day, but he still implemented his plan. He began to pay attention to Jojo's archaeological research and started fitness.By the end of the holiday, Dior had grown another two centimeters.

After Jojo was able to get out of the wheelchair, he was very proud to find that Jojo's height had not changed. Well, he was finally taller than Jojo, and he would grow taller.Because of having to stay at home all the time, Qiao Qiao's skin, which was tanned to a healthy honey color, finally faded, and she looked more beautiful.

Of course, how Qiao Qiao became has nothing to do with him. In view of the influence that Qiao Qiao had on him some time ago, he has decided not to pay more attention to Qiao Qiao.When he began to preview the homework for the next semester and was about to set his own learning goals, he got a sad news from George.

George's old friend, an officer directly under the Queen's command, heard that his beautiful daughter had not yet made a marriage contract, so he deliberately decided to hold a dance party in his mansion, inviting famous ladies and young gentlemen from London society They participated together, including Mr. Dio Brando, George's adopted son.

...that is, a blind date.

He hated meaningless dances, unlike the dinners of important people to which George took them, and he was often more than happy to attend and impress them.However, at the blind date ball, all you can meet are some arrogant noble ladies and gentlemen. Although he knows that this kind of social interaction is necessary, he is also fully capable of dealing with it. Maybe he can find someone in it who can help him. A suitable marriage partner with status but no brains...

But when he thought that Jojo would be the center of the ball, that she would no longer meet those country boys, but some competitive, not so easy to deal with young people who would curry favor with her, he felt a sore tooth.

Of course, Qiao Qiao is still a child now. Although her body has begun to change, she doesn't understand what love is at all, and she only knows silly fun every day.

But what concerned him the most was that George's old friend had invited a psychic called "Ms. Carly" in order to increase the appeal of the dance party.

It is said that the old witch is very accurate and can accurately see the past and future of others.She will help the gentlemen and ladies at the ball to perform divination one by one, and then tell them who is the most suitable soul mate for them.

Of course Dior didn't believe in this kind of thing, any divination and witchcraft were lies created to defraud money.It's just that he was very worried that Qiao Qiao would believe this kind of thing - if the old witch was bribed, just assign her a boy and tell her that this is your destined husband, Qiao Qiao would probably believe it!
