Lord Grimth Returns - It seems like an old friend is coming

Suman and Xia Ruiting were standing side by side chatting with a few boss-like people not far away, their manners were elegant and leisurely, I was suddenly a little uneasy, as if I was trying to hide something, I drank the wine in my glass in one gulp.After drinking, I remembered that I had to drive later, so I quickly changed to another drink.

"Why, can't stand it anymore?" Miao Sa approached maliciously.

"Let's go somewhere else for a while." I begged her.Although I warned myself countless times that it was just a play on the occasion, how could it be possible to not feel unhappy at all?I am not a saint.

Miao Sa didn't intend to give me this chance, instead of leaving with me, she raised her hand and shouted in Suman's direction: "Hi, Vanessa!"

As soon as my ears warmed up, the steps I stepped out suddenly stopped, and when I turned around, I saw Suman had already looked over.When she met my eyes, she was slightly taken aback for a moment, and then her face darkened instantly.

"Excuse me." She quickly changed into a decent smile, she nodded slightly, and then left.

I can only wait for her to walk in front of me.The familiar fragrance came, I didn't dare to look up at her face, my gaze was erratic, and only fell on her delicate white wrist.She took a sip of the drink handed by the waiter, and with a slight movement, a thin joint on her wrist moved lightly, and when she saw it, she felt dazed for a while.

"Why are you here?" She ignored Miao Sa and asked me directly.

"I brought her here." Miao Sa ignored me and answered her directly.

Suman glanced at Miao Sa, to be precise, stared.When he wanted to say something more, Xia Ruiting suddenly walked over. "Friend? Xiaoman, don't introduce me." His hand wrapped around Suman's waist very naturally.

My eyes were like thorns, I turned my face away.

Xia Ruiting probably doesn't remember me long ago, he looks at me like a stranger, but he knows Miao Sa, of course, they are people from the same world.However, he greeted Miao Sa with a smile on his face, but in exchange for Miao Sa's half-smile: "Mr. Xia, I think it's better for us to have less contact, don't forget that I am the defense lawyer for the plaintiff in your hotel. "

Xia Ruiting had no choice but to laugh at himself: "Long time no see, Miss Ling is still so funny, is that kind of small case worth your trouble?" His eyes turned to me again, "I haven't introduced you yet, who is this lady?"

"This is my apprentice, Jimo Sigui." Miao Sa said.

"Jimo...Jimo thinking about returning?" Xia Ruiting seemed to have regained his memory, with an incredulous look on his face. "It can't be you, right? Jimo Sigui, are you Xiaoman's former assistant?"

Well, I admit, my name is far more recognizable than I am. "Mr. Xia, hello."

"You have changed so much that I didn't even recognize it. By the way, why did you change your career?"

It's annoying, it's noisy!I scolded in my heart, but still had a decent smile on my face. "This is what I do, Mr. Xia."

"Rui Ting, I have something to say to Musa, please leave first, okay?" Suman couldn't stand the hypocrisy of us, she sent Xia Ruiting away, and patted the back of my hand lightly. "Sigui, you also leave for a while. I have something to talk to Musa, alone."

"Oh." He held the wine glass very cooperatively and avoided it far away.Let's talk alone... I probably know what Suman is going to talk to Miao Sa about, and it must be because Miao Sa brought me here.I can't tell what it feels like, but based on what happened in the clubhouse last time, no matter how stupid I am, I know that Miao Sa did it on purpose. He purposely brought me close to Suman, and even picked people who were an eyesore.But I still can't figure out why she did this on purpose, and what good does it do to her?

After walking far enough away, they looked back quietly. The two stood facing each other, and they couldn't hear what they were talking at all. They could only see Suman's condensed side face and Miao Sa's indifferent smile.

"Sigui?"

Suddenly someone patted my shoulder from behind, and I hurriedly looked back. "Miss Hua!"

Qin Shuanghua came over at some point and stood in front of me. "Will Miao Sa bring you here?" She smiled slightly and clinked glasses with me. "You follow her too much, and you have to learn to say no occasionally."

I knew what Qin Shuanghua meant, and she also felt that Miao Sa brought me to meet Su Man and Xia Ruiting on purpose.It's just that it doesn't really matter to me whether she did it on purpose or not, so what if she did it on purpose?Looking at it from another angle, I still have to thank her for helping me meet Suman, and thank her for giving me the opportunity to come here to practice—whether it's work or her attitude towards Xia Ruiting, everything is fine.

Qin Shuanghua said again: "Miao Sa is a kind child, also very smart, with a very flexible mind, but she is often too willful, and likes to verify things in her own way. Many times, seeing things tends to be subjective. You can learn from her. You can learn from her intelligence and flexibility, but in other aspects, you have to think carefully."

"Thank you, Sister Hua, for your advice." I respected her, and just as I saw her looking at Su Man and Miao Sa from afar, I couldn't help but ask, "Sister Hua, I'm asking too much, you seem to be very interested in Miao Sa." Understand?" Su Man said that Qin Shuanghua would probably marry Miao Sa's father, and Miao Sa's attitude towards her was so disrespectful, I was a little surprised, but Qin Shuanghua showed such understanding and... pity for Miao Sa?That look, you read it right, Qin Shuanghua looked at Miao Sa's eyes, the eyes gradually softened, it was actually the beginning of pity.

Qin Shuanghua seemed not at all surprised that I would ask this question, she smiled slightly, and she nodded. "Of course, I can say that I watched her grow up. How can I not understand her temperament?"

"You've known them since childhood?" I was dumbfounded, Qin Shuanghua's age...it's impossible!

"No, you're thinking too much. When I knew her, she—" She raised her hand and gestured on my forehead, smiling slightly. "Already 16 years old."

"..." It doesn't matter whether he is six years old or 16 years old, in short, it is another person with such a deep connection.I was suddenly a little depressed, well, they were originally in the same circle, only me, Jimo Sigui, stumbled in, and I was the only one who was a complete outsider.I don't know any of them except Suman.

Qin Shuanghua left soon. On this occasion, she had too many people to socialize with, and she didn't have much time to chat with me.I put down the cup and walked towards Suman and the others with no intention of eavesdropping, but when I was about to walk, I still vaguely heard Suman say: "Anyway, if you continue to behave like this , and don’t blame me for going back on my word and breaking the original agreement.”

I couldn't help being stunned, promise?Is there an agreement between Suman and Miao Sa?What agreement?Is it about me?

Miao Sa saw me approaching with sharp eyes, and stopped the conversation just in time, "Hey, apprentice, are you back from playing?"

"Yeah." I didn't care about Miao Sa's gags, I just stared at Suman, trying to see some clues from the corners of her eyes and brows: what agreement is there between her and Miao Sa?

When Suman looked at me, the calmness between her brows prevented me from seeing any information. She walked up to me, smiled softly, and then raised her hand to lightly press on my shoulder. "I have something to do at night, so I won't go there. Go back early and rest, don't play for too long." After finishing speaking, he was about to leave.

He also made it clear that he was going to send me away.Play, play, what are you playing, whoever saw that I came to play!I was suffocating in my heart. Wouldn't it be best to explain clearly in person?Why hide it?I don't want to think about everything in my heart like before, and when I can't figure it out, I will harm others and myself.

So he stepped up a few steps and grabbed her hand, "Wait."

Suman looked at me sideways, slightly puzzled in his eyes.I didn't want to make myself too nervous before the matter was clarified, so I pulled her aside and asked softly, "What is the agreement you just made with Miao Sa?"

Su Man was stunned, and then showed a slightly surprised look. She didn't answer my words, but just looked at me quietly, her eyes were calm.

"I heard it all, tell me, what is the agreement? Is it related to me?" It is hard for me not to raise this matter to a certain level. First of all, the word "agreement" is equivalent to a promise in layman's terms. They are just ordinary friends. Things that can rise to the topic of agreement must be more serious, and it will not be as simple as eating or drinking porridge at night.

Suman fell silent, as if he was considering how to answer my questioning.On the side, Miao Sa suddenly came over, stood beside us with a big grin, and smiled. "A promise, I'll tell you, here's the thing, I made a bet with Vanessa on whether or not I could—"

"Musa! Is this the only spirit of your contract?" Suman's face froze immediately, and he called her coldly, intending to stop her.

"What are you betting on?" A string in my brain was already tensed, and I chased after him.

Miao Sa looked at Suman, then at me, and shrugged her shoulders in a signature manner. "Oh, Vanessa, the terms of the agreement didn't say that you can't tell Sigui. What's more, you accused me of repeatedly breaking the agreement. Didn't you? You agreed not to interfere with each other's behavior, but didn't you use your current girlfriend to tell Sigui? Sigui ordered to report all my actions? Hmph, state officials are only allowed to set fires and occasionally the common people should be allowed to light lamps."

I think I understand it, their agreement is indeed related to me, but I don't understand why Miao Sa did this, and what is her purpose?

Su Man remained silent with a pale face, while Miao Sa had already told the whole story over there.

"I made a bet on Vanessa, whether I can catch up with you within three months. Calculate the time, there are still two months left, well, the chance is still great." Miao Sa said with a smile, and took it Ordered two glasses of wine and handed each of us a glass.

After being shocked, I immediately calmed down, didn't say a word, and silently picked it up, didn't drink, and put it aside.

Su Man directly raised his hand to block it, with a faint coldness in his eyes.

Miao Sa didn't care, she drank it herself if we didn't drink it. "Vanessa promised not to interfere with my actions, such as not forcing you to change jobs or move house to avoid me. Similarly, I will not deliberately sabotage you. In short, we compete fairly and do not interfere with each other. After three months, it will be up to you to choose. Regardless of success or failure, I am willing to bet and admit defeat."

"That's it?" I asked.

"That's it." Miao Sa said.

"No more?"

"……Gone."

"Well, then you're done talking, it's my turn?" I asked again.

"Uh, tell me." Miao Sa shrugged again, with an expression of indifference.

I looked at Suman, then at Miao Sa, my mind was filled with chaos and incomprehensible emotional bombardment.Are you angry?It seems that there is no reason to be angry; depressed?In the final analysis, this matter has nothing to do with hurting anyone's self-esteem.what is it?I shook my head, not sure, but it was an inexplicable emotion, entangled between the two, gradually rising to a certain critical point, and then with a bang, I suddenly woke up.
