Did the male lead change his ways today?

Dinner at the Carpenters' was a disaster compared to Joestar's.They didn't have a chef who could cook, and the pea soup made by the servants was astringent and salty, and the minced meat had an unpalatable smell.Fish and pie were all mixed together, which of course was an ideal middle-class dinner compared to what Dior used to eat in the slums.

While eating these things without changing his face, he found that Qiao Qiao, who had been enjoying a superior life, did not show any dislike. She ate all the food with difficulty, and then thanked the person who made the dinner.It was not what he expected, he thought she would throw a tantrum like those spoiled aristocratic girls, and then leave the table.

Of course, Qiao Qiao is indeed different from the noble girl in his impression, not only because she lacks proper etiquette, she is a monkey, ready to charge at any time like a wild boar.But in fact, she does not have the sense of superiority and arrogance that other nobles have. She has never been superior, and she is even friendly to the servants at home.

Stupid, pathetic Jojo, that's why she screwed up so easily, if it was him...

Dio laughed at her in his heart, but he didn't deny that he didn't hate Jojo as much as he hated the other nobles, although he still hated her.

"Speaking of which, Dio, you seem to have adjusted to your new life well. I noticed that your table manners are perfect. Has Sir Joestar hired a teacher for you?"

Before going to bed at night, Willy and JoJo said goodnight and went back to their room with Dio.Men can always talk about a lot of things, plus Jojo's Aunt Petunia keeps talking about the adopted son with him, Willie is a little wary of Dio, and decides to test this boy who is as old as Jojo.

"No, it's just that the etiquette of the nobility was mentioned in the book I read before. Even if a person is born in a lowly position, he can't give up his upbringing. I think this is the standard for being a gentleman."

Dio sneered in his heart, he could fully feel Willy's contempt and hostility, but on the surface he answered him impeccably.

Yes, why did the slum-born master the etiquette of those nobles.Because he memorized every book he read, and anything mentioned above that was useful to him.Especially before coming to Joestar's house, in order to make a good impression on George Joestar, he specially practiced that part.In fact, there is no difficulty at all, it is just a matter of whether you are willing to implement it.For example, Jojo, it is obviously impossible for her not to know what the correct etiquette is, but her nature is too relaxed, as long as no one restrains her, she will not be willing to put in the effort to follow those annoying etiquettes.

Like, Jojo is in her room right now, bouncing around in her pajamas, making thumping noises on the floor while he has to have a boring conversation with this young man who obviously has thoughts about Jojo.JoJo's cousin might ruin his plan, he will be a tough opponent on his way to take the Joestar property, but Willy is several years older than Dio, and Dio can't threaten Eli Threatening him as well...

Dio decided to think of a countermeasure. He had to seize Willy's loopholes and keep him away from Jojo.

"Wow, it seems that you are very ambitious. No wonder Uncle George has been praising you, saying that you are a smart boy."

Willy nodded, then he stared at Dio for a few more times, and couldn't help asking, "Speaking of which, you have lived with Jojo for two or three months, what do you think of Jojo?"

"..."

ha?What kind of stupid question is this?

Ask him what he thinks of Jojo?Are you serious?

A spoiled innocent girl who doesn't know the dangers of the world, a tomboy who is as energetic as a wild boar and likes to rampage, without any life experience and common sense.He didn't understand how anyone could really like her, she wasn't attractive at all, she could easily knock down a man!Of course, apart from her face, even he was reluctant to admit that she was beautiful from a fair point of view.

Numerous malicious descriptions emerged from Dio's mind, but he suspected that if he said what he really thought, he would anger Jojo's cousin, and he didn't want others to find out his hostility towards Jojo.

So he thought about it, and replied safely, "Jojo is a girl full of energy. Although there were some misunderstandings between us at first, we have forgiven each other. Now our relationship is very good, just like a real family. .”

"That's right, she is very cute, not at all like those arrogant ladies from noble families."

Willie looked smug, but looked at him warily, "Tell me, do you like Jojo, Dio."

...How is this possible, of course he hates her!

But the answer from Dio was, "Of course, who can not like Jojo?"

"Very well, but there is one thing I think I should remind you, Mr. Brando."

Willie sat on the bed and looked at Dior, propped his chin with one hand and said, "People around me agree that I am the most suitable person for Jojo to marry. Uncle George will soon let Jojo enter the social world, and we are very likely to meet. Making a marriage contract is a destined thing, and no one can get involved. So, as an adopted son, don't have any unrealistic expectations, don't make Jojo's idea, she will never belong to you. "

"..."

This ignorant idiot, Dio looked at him coldly, he was suddenly very upset, he was not interested in Jojo, but her cousin's attitude really made him angry.

But he still pretended to be calm and replied, "Of course, in my opinion, you are very suitable, and I sincerely wish you can be together."

"You think so? Not bad...Thank you for your blessing, Mr. Brando, you are a boy who knows how to be grateful."

Willie seemed a little happier. He didn't notice Dio's cold eyes, and he continued to talk to Dio, "I heard that you are here for the music festival, but it's a pity that I have to go to school. I really want to accompany Jojo." Together, but a man can't give up his career and determination for a woman, that would make you a joke... what do you think, Mr. Brando."

"Yes, I agree too." Dio looked at him coolly.

"Glad we reached an agreement, Mr. Brando."

Willie looked at the clock, "It's still early, if you're not sleepy, would you like to play a few games of chess with me? I used to play with Jojo a lot, don't look at her like that, she's actually pretty good at chess .”

"Oh?" Dio narrowed his eyes, "Are you sure?"

Play chess with him?Dio secretly laughed at the other party's overreach.Already at the age of eight, he could easily beat all the chess gamblers in the tavern. He was a genius in this area, and Jojo's stupid cousin was now actively trying to challenge him.

"What's the matter, you don't know the rules of chess, do you?"

After losing his looks to the blond boy, Willie regained some sense of superiority, "After all, I'm so much older than you, and you haven't gone to school...don't worry, I can teach you."

"I mean, if you're going to play chess, wouldn't it be fun not to bet on something?" Dio said slowly, "Father was very generous and gave me five pounds in pocket money before coming here, maybe we can Add some excitement and competitiveness to the game."

"Are you sure, Dio?"

Willy was surprised by his proposal, he didn't expect Dio to offer to play chess with him.He was vaguely uneasy. He began to doubt Dior's chess skills, but this proposal was very attractive... Although his father was in business and his family had some money, it was still far behind the rich Joestar family. The cash he had And less than ten pounds.If he can win the five pounds in Dior's hand, he can use Dior's pocket money to buy Jojo a bracelet as a gift, to please Jojo...

"I agree."

After a little thought, Willy quickly accepted Dio's challenge.While it might be disgraceful to win a kid's money away, it's Dior's own idea...

Prepare to regret it, Dio, this is the result of your stupid challenge to him...

Willie began impatiently, thinking about what he was going to do with the money.

The next day.

Joannes woke up from a sweet dream. Although Dior put some pressure on her, she was still an optimist most of the time.Of course, she didn't forget the main purpose of coming here, she planned to investigate Dior's past during the music festival.

But when she brushed her teeth with sea salt from the bathroom and went to the dining table to have breakfast with the Carpenter family, she noticed that his cousin Willie looked very gloomy and gloomy, and the corners of Dio's mouth were raised quite happy smile.

"I'm done eating."

Willy didn't even look up at Joannes, he hurriedly put on his coat after leaving a word.Joannes instinctively sensed that something was wrong, and she glanced at Dio vigilantly, and found that Dio was also looking at her, with a dazzling smile on his face.

"Did you get along well last night?" Joannes asked suddenly.

"Of course, why do you ask such a question, dear sister." Dio took a sip of hot tea, with a very confident calm in his whole body.

"Last night I had a great time, it was a productive day."

"Where's Cousin Willie?" Joanice looked at him worriedly. "You look very unhappy."

... Losing a game of chess to a boy who was several years younger than him, and having all the money taken away by the opponent, even if it was said, it would be a shame. He didn't want to lose face in front of Qiao Qiao.

"It's nothing, I'm just a little disappointed at the thought of going to school and not being able to go to the music festival with you." Willie pulled a hard smirk.

"You can accompany Jojo where they want to go after school," Aunt Petunia interrupted after taking a sip of pea soup.

"Yes, I have to go first, have a nice day."

Willy grabbed his schoolbag and left the house in a hurry. Joannes was still looking at his back worriedly. She always felt that Cousin Willy seemed to be hiding something.

But she didn't have time to distract herself to figure out what happened. After breakfast, Jostar's servants came to comb Joanice's hair, and then she and Dio were allowed to go to the market at the London Music Festival. visit.

This is the time of torture, Dior is very reluctant, he doesn't want to go shopping with Jojo!Especially there is another Anna who has been looking at him with obsessive eyes. The three of them will go out together, but Dior would rather go to a bookstore in London to spend the money he won last night and buy a few books he is interested in. Kill time.

But in the end he went out in a carriage with two girls dressed in costumes.Ana was always trying to push his way, and the girl seemed desperate for his attention, but when the two of them were together, it was hard to take your eyes off Jojo.He had to admit that after the comparison, Jojo was indeed very attractive, especially her aquamarine-like eyes, which were always shining.

It is a pair of optimistic eyes full of expectations for life, exuding an annoying brilliance.
