Paper Man Husband Comes True

"This key."

Estelle squeezed the golden key in his hand, seemingly looking at it, but actually looking at Kailo through its ring.

Now they were sitting by the warm fire that Estelle had started.

He was silent for a long time, which aroused Kailo's curiosity, and his attention was also shifted to the golden key.

But before he studied the key carefully, Estelle threw it into the raging fire, "I don't think it will be of any use in the future."

Estelle said calmly, he glanced at Kailo, a little cautiously: "Kailo will open the door for me in the future, won't he?"

While paying attention to Kailo's expression, he saw that his words did not arouse his disgust, and continued: "It will always be, right?"

"Hmm." Kailo didn't think too much about it, and agreed directly.

If Estelle likes it, he can always open the door for Estelle, it's not a big deal, it's a trivial matter.

However, Estelle seemed to have received some eternal promise, he was almost overjoyed, his beautiful eyebrows were raised high, and the curvature of the corners of his lips would be raised again quickly every time the corners of his lips were pressed down a little.

"It's Christmas Eve today."

In order to cover up, he brought up the festival as an excuse: "I like this festival very much."

(complete bullshit, he doesn't like it at all)

Kailo still has a little understanding of Christmas. Although he habitually doesn't take this festival seriously, he has belatedly understood that in Estelle's era, the status of Christmas is equivalent to New Year's.

He also knows some customs of Christmas, such as preparing the pine tree in advance, hanging gifts under the pine tree, and a series of tedious but interesting special activities.

But now... none of that.

There was only one empty house, most of which was still covered with white cloth.

Estelle didn't mind, "It's too late to start preparing now."

Then Kailo saw him walk to the phone table, pick up the thick contact book in the drawer, and make calls one by one to order the things needed for Christmas.

"They will deliver it soon." Estelle stood up and said to Kailo. Kailo had torn off all the white cloth covering the furniture, and he didn't know where to put it.

Estelle quickly folded the white cloth and put it in the storage room without letting Kailo intervene once.

Kailo: ...

How should I put it, my heart is a bit complicated.

Estelle Isn't he a man of noble birth?Why is it so easy to work? !

A little envious.

Maybe this is Xueba, who can learn everything quickly.

Kailo is skeptical about ordering by phone.

Not to mention anything else, let's just say that now, the vehicles used for transportation on the street are horse-drawn carriages. How fast can the horse-drawn carriages be?

But the facts quickly overturned his prejudice.

The person standing at the door told Kailo with facts that even a carriage can run very fast.

Estelle signed the receipt, and opened the door to let the "courier brothers" come in.

They quickly installed the Christmas tree, unpacked some decorations and neatly stacked them on the table.

"Come on, Kylo, ​​let's decorate the Christmas tree."

Estelle picked up a bunch of pendant stars and looked at Kailo expectantly.

The Christmas tree that came was taller than the two Estelles combined.

A Christmas tree like this takes a lot of work to decorate, and it's so tall you can't reach it without a ladder.

But the existence of Kailo greatly reduced the trouble for the two of them.

He is a ghost, he can fly.

Hanging ribbons is very simple for him, he only needs to fly around the Christmas tree a few times, and the ribbons are decorated.Still very convenient.

After the two were busy for a while, they finally finished decorating the Christmas tree.

Estelle looked at the Christmas tree, and for the first time felt that the decorated Christmas tree was so beautiful.

It was the first time he had looked straight at the Christmas tree.Since there was no cook in the house, and Kylo and Estelle couldn't handle the important duty of roasting a turkey, they ordered takeout, or on the phone, to have dinner delivered from a nearby restaurant.

Kailo muttered that there was a takeaway so early, and opened the doors to welcome the delivery person in.

"Put it on the table, thank you."

Estelle said to them, "Happy Christmas Eve."

They also took off their hats and responded: "Happy Christmas Eve to you."

Kailo is not a particularly sensitive person, but he also has a little strange discovery, he always feels that these two people seem to know Estelle.

But they didn't even say a word.

This faint doubt was left far behind by Kailo when faced with the roasted turkey that made the index finger move.

"This is the authentic roast turkey." He took a bite of the drumstick and relaxed, "It's much more delicious than my dad's."

He seldom mentioned his past in front of Estelle, only occasionally leaking a little bit, Estelle paid great attention to this, and asked, "Kelo's father...can cook?"

"Yes." Kailo showed an indescribable expression: "My dad is... well, he is very creative in cooking."

It is so creative that people dare not eat it.

Kai Luo will never forget that durian stewed pork knuckle.

In this era of lack of entertainment, there is no recreation of playing games between the end of dinner and going to bed, and impetuous modern people always feel that something is missing.

Estelle is not omnipotent, even if he stays with him, Kailo will still miss his farm.

Damn, I really want to grow some vegetables!

Oh, you ask, why don't you grow a la carte in reality to enjoy yourself?

Pampered gamers can't stand this.

The stories Estelle read couldn't attract him anymore—he was a layman after all, and he really couldn't have a long-term interest in those protagonists and heroines who were full of arias.

Estelle's thoughts were on Kailo all the time, so he simply put down the book in his hand and brought two white candles, "Come on Kailo, we should go to church."

He looked so natural, as if they were supposed to be at church at this hour.

Kailo held a candle in a daze, and went out with Estelle.

The two of them were not the only ones who went out with candles. There was a torrent of people on the street, and everyone carefully held the white candle in their hands to protect the weak flame so that it would not be blown out by the sudden wind.

Kailo didn't pay attention, the cold wind blew, and the candle in his hand went out.

He was not the only one who was recruited, but Estelle was not included.

"Come on." Estelle moved closer and lit a candle for Kailo.

But he was the only one around who did this, and no one else helped those whose candles were extinguished, and those who were extinguished did not ask for help from those around them, but sighed and thought they were unlucky.

"Will it be bad for us to do this?"

Kailo lowered his volume consciously, "They don't seem to be doing this, is it not allowed?"

"Nothing is impossible."

Estelle said lightly: "The candlelight symbolizes a person's luck for the coming year, and if it is blown out by the wind, it is not a good omen."

As he spoke, he blew out his candle.

"I'll trade my luck for yours so there won't be any problems."

He said it easily, but Kailo knew the weight of this sentence.

He wanted to say something, but the words accumulated in his throat, and he was suffocated for a while, and he didn't know what to say.

So he didn't continue talking, but just protected the candle in his hand more tightly.

He obviously didn't take it seriously at first, but now, he feels that he can feel the golden luck contained in the faint candlelight.

The rest of the journey went smoothly, and Kailo entered the church smoothly without encountering any wind.

Today's church is also decorated, and Kailo imitated the others, and erected the candles in his hands on the platform at the front of the church.

"Today is Christmas Eve."

The pastor on the high platform began to preach, and what he said was very new to Kylo, ​​and it sounded like he was listening to a story.

Although the story is a bit lame and there are some inconsistencies, you don't need to pay so much attention, just listen to it anyway.

However, the more the pastor said, the more outrageous it became.

"I don't understand." Kailo lowered his voice and asked Estelle: "Didn't God destroy the world with a flood at the beginning? Then why did he let his son go to the world to save mankind? It doesn't make sense. !"

He is purely a layman in religion, and he put forward his doubts very straightforwardly: "And there are only a few members in Adam's family, how did he reproduce so many humans? Children born to close relatives have a high chance of being mentally retarded. "

Estelle: "...This is actually just a story, it can't be taken seriously."

However, Kailo raised new questions. The pastor on the stage always mentioned that people should have firm beliefs and resist the invasion of demons, which made him even more puzzled: "According to him, God is omnipotent, so why doesn't he simply Wipe out all the demons? If he really is Almighty God, it should be so easy for him, why doesn't he do it?"

Moreover, it has been a long time since this church preached to save mankind, almost almost 1000 years ago, but there are still so many bad guys, isn't it a bit of a failure?

"Because he can't do that." Estelle answered the question. He lowered his eyes, and the faint light and shadow hit his chiseled side face, which looked very beautiful. "I have a guess."

"Look, gods and demons both have supernatural powers, but they oppose each other and hate each other, but they can't destroy each other. Why is this? Because they are actually two sides of one body."

"Everyone has good and evil in their hearts." He took Kailo's hand and pressed it lightly on his chest, "For example, I sometimes have some evil thoughts in my heart that surprise me .If people’s good thoughts are gods, then people’s evil thoughts are demons.”

"It is impossible for a person to have no light and no darkness in his heart. These two opposite characters are fused together, just like two sides of a coin. They exist and are opposed to each other, but they will never exist. It is impossible to eliminate the opponent."

Estelle said quietly: "So I guess, the relationship between gods and demons is basically like this."

Kailo was about to reveal his materialistic beliefs, but was stopped by Estelle's words.

He thought about it, but still didn't reveal his beliefs.

Estelle's idea is actually quite reasonable.

It can be listened to as an expanded story of the myth.
