In the VIP room, Pang De got up to welcome Mena, who they had been waiting for a long time, to take her seat, then called someone to remove the original tea in the room, and at the same time ordered to bring a new pot of milk tea.
"The tea here is good, you can taste it if Miss Mena likes it," Pound greeted.
Mena, who was sitting lightly on the soft chair, did not have such a leisurely interest as Pound. After the attendants collected the tea sets and left, she said with a little anxiety, "Thank you for your hospitality, and I am sorry for being so late, but I ...Because of the teacher, I couldn't sneak out until this time, it is really a last resort..."
Funk hugged the hairball and deliberately squeezed into the position next to Pound. At this time, he took a closer look at Mena's fingers clasped on her knees. As expected, the nails were as they were seen yesterday. Each of them had a perfect oval shape. Healthy pink.
But Funk didn't know that these hands didn't look like what a herbalist should have; because the hands of herbalists often play with the soil, the nails must be cut short, and the nail seams are probably a little dull.
Pound naturally looked at Mena secretly as Funk said this morning, so he didn't ask about the "difficulties" revealed in Mena's words, but just smiled, "It doesn't matter, since Miss Mena doesn't have much time, then Let's not talk nonsense, I don't know why Miss Mena is looking for me?"
The hint in the words was skipped just like that, leaving Mena stunned for a moment, but she quickly pursed her lips, and then said with difficulty, "This... I know that the next request will be a bit excessive, but I really I have no choice but to ask you for help. I am really scared, I don’t know what to do every day and every night.” Then I raised my eyes with water mist and pleaded, “It’s great to meet you at this time, I , I can no longer trust anyone casually..." Mena had a nasal voice as she spoke, and raised her hand to press her eyes.
Pound said lightly, "What kind of difficulties did Miss Mena encounter?"
Mei Na nodded quickly with red eyes, and at this time she touched her bruised left arm with her right hand, "Yes. The south is really different from the north. It turns out that good people like Funk are not everywhere. , I just now know..."
Seeing that Mena was still hesitating, Funk pointed to Mena's arm, and simply asked, "Who are you being bullied by, Mena?"
Mena's subordinates paused for a moment, but turned to Pound with her big watery eyes, as if she was watching Pound's reaction.
Pound was really impatient with this hesitating appearance.He knew that she wanted to arouse their sympathy first, and then get to the point, but he was afraid that it would be difficult for him to squeeze out this sympathy.Pound succinctly said, "If you have any difficulties, Miss Mena should tell you straight up, so we will know how to deal with it."
With such a businesslike answer, Mena lowered her head aggrievedly, and spoke with Ai Ai. "Okay, okay. I didn't want to say this, but...I'm so scared, I'm so worried and afraid every day, I, I really don't know how long I can last..."
"Could it be that Jacob really hit you?" Funk frowned and speculated.
Mena nodded, but wiped her eyes again, "Geja...was very good, so was I. We met in a town near Sifang. At that time, I just came from the north When he came out, he was looking for herbs in the north, and he needed guidance, so I showed him the way, and then he promised to teach me herbology..."
Speaking of this, the door of the VIP room was knocked suddenly, Mei Na paused, and turned her head to look at the person who opened the door with red eyes. delivered.A few waiters were holding the meals and setting them up quickly and quietly on the low table in the VIP room. Taking advantage of this period, Mei Na also lowered her head to clean up the marks on her face.
Pound also waited quietly for the waiters to finish their service, and then raised his eyes again, but saw Bergland's waiter coming in after leaving the door, and there was a faint figure at the door.With a smiling expression on Bergeron's face, seeing Mena paused slightly, he said to Pound, "Your Excellency Pound, the seller who just made the deal is already waiting outside the door. Is it convenient for you now?"
Berggrand was obliged to keep all information about the auction confidential. Since there were outsiders in the room, he concealed the seller's surname.But Bergland didn't say anything, and Pound also knew that the seller who just made the deal was Ge Ya, the owner of Formula No. [-]?
Mena turned her head slightly, stood up and nodded when she saw Berggrand, but because of the angle, she only saw Berggrand, but didn't see the figure standing directly behind her by the door.At this time, the figure outside the door was looking in from the half-open door, and seeing this, the sharp eyes stared at Pound in surprise and suspicion, Pound felt it, and raised his eyes just to meet Ge Ya's sight .
Pound couldn't help being surprised by this coincidence, but thinking about it, the two things are actually connected.If Mena wanted to come here without telling Geya, she had to wait until Geya was busy before leaving, and Bergland went to find Geya immediately after the auction was made, so Mena was free... All this, unexpectedly It seems that it has been arranged in the dark.
That being the case, Pound decided to follow the trend, and he smiled at Bergrund, "If your Excellency is willing, please ask him to wait by the door for a while. My conversation with Ms. Mena will end as soon as possible."
Bergland bowed, "Okay, then I won't disturb you."
Before Bergland left, Pound added, "In order to protect Miss Mena's reputation, you don't need to close the door when you leave. I was negligent just now."
Bergland's eyebrows twitched slightly, and then he exited the door in response.When he came to the door, seeing Mr. Ge Ya who seemed to be staring in hostilely outside the door, Bergland immediately came to his senses and left decisively; I believe the person outside the door heard what Pound said just now.
After the commotion, Pound poured a cup of milk tea for Mena, "Please continue, Miss Mena. Why do you need our help?" At the same time, he repeated the question.
Mena also sorted out the statement and continued her story. "...Afterwards, I studied medicinal herbs with Ge Ya. Ge Ya is a potion master. I accompanied him to collect and identify medicines. Everything was fine. But two months ago, Ge Ya was injured... He, He didn't see clearly that the hunter's trap was buried in the grass, and when he stepped on it, the bone of his foot was broken..."
The figure at the door seemed to be greatly shaken, but did not make a sound.
Mena's voice became low, "Of course I will do my best to take care of him. Ge Ya is my teacher, and he took care of me like this before. How can I leave him at a time like this... But, but, I didn't Unexpectedly," said this, she lowered her head and sniffed, "Gao Ya's temper suddenly became very bad, and it was different from before. After he hurt his foot...he, he often threw things, yelled Scolding, sometimes, even asking me to want, want--" Mena touched her left arm suddenly, and with her unspoken words, it was enough to make people think about it.
So Funk couldn't help but asked, "What's going on!?"
Mena stared blankly with red eyes, "...I don't know, but, but I can't help but be afraid..." It looked like a confused and helpless little animal, stimulating everyone's desire to protect.
However, Pound's gaze swept across the figure outside the door, and he saw Geya lowering his head, his fists clenched at his sides, and after a closer look, he was trembling slightly.
Funk frowned fiercely, "Then why are you still following him? Leave him and find another teacher quickly?"
"Because," Mena moved her lips and said with difficulty, "he... he took all my gold coins, and I, when I recognized him as my teacher, I handed over all the money I brought out from the north I gave it to him. So... there is no way, I am also afraid, afraid that he will come after me... I really don't know what to do..."
"So you will help me, Funk?" Mena turned to Funk for help, because Pound's expression was still indifferent. "I don't ask for much... I just want you to take me out of here, out of Jacob. I, I can help with many things. In the north, I can do everything. You know, sewing, cooking, cleaning. yes, right?"
"I can help you get the gold coins back," Funk pressed the knot and snapped. "This kind of person, just scare him."
When Mena heard this, her face was a little anxious, "This...if you leave, he will come back to me again!?"
Pound had no interface, just watched Mena's performance blankly.
Not to mention that Pang De had an opinion on Mena before, just what Mena said just now is not consistent with the relationship between Mena and Geya.Because Pound carefully recalled the process of Jacob coming to find Mena that day.
Faced with Ge Ya's anxiety, Mei Na took the initiative to hold Ge Ya's hand, and then helped him to leave. This was not at all like the reaction of a woman who was always in a state of domestic violence and was always worried.
Coupled with Ge Ya's reaction outside the door, he didn't look ashamed or anxious, but rather angry to the extreme, trying to hold himself back.
"Your Excellency Pound?" Mena's pleading eyes turned to Pound at this moment, "Please..."
In fact, from the very beginning, she was looking for Pound, not Funk.It was because she believed that the financial conditions of the two of them all came from Pound.She guessed that Pound should be a wealthy nobleman, and he joined Funk only after receiving Funk's help.Therefore, she quickly gave up the matter of redeeming Funk; without Pound, Funk might still be a northerner with empty pockets, so as long as she stays with Funk, she should be able to receive Pound's care.That's why she always cared about Pound's reaction.
At this moment, there was finally movement by the door, and with a bang, the door was suddenly pushed open!
It turned out that the poor Meina was startled, her face changed drastically after turning her head, and she almost jumped out of the soft chair!
"G-Ge-Ja!? You, how could you!?"
Ge Ya dragged his right foot and walked in limping.His footsteps were heavy, but his back was straight, as if he was maintaining his last dignity. His originally upright facial features were slightly distorted by strong emotions, "No need to ask, from now on, I will never see you again!"
"... Geja?" Mena fell back onto the chair with limp legs, her face was completely pale, "You...? I, I really don't want to..."
Ge Ya tried his best to maintain a blank expression but couldn't suppress his resentment. He hissed, "Yes! I heard it all. I heard it very clearly!!"
"It turns out! My leg was injured by a trapper! It wasn't to save you!!"
"It turns out! I once threw something at you! Cursed loudly!! It made you sleepless at night with fear!!"
"It turns out! It turns out...hahahaha...!!" After speaking, Geya laughed wildly.
"In the end, you were right!!"
"How dare I think about you!! I'm a cripple!! It's unforgivable!!"
"Ha ha ha ha...!!!"
Mena shook her head weakly and said with trembling lips, "...Ja, no, I, I just..."
Laughing until Jacob's eyes were bloodshot, he threw the scroll he was holding tightly at Pound's feet.
"The recipe is for you! No more gold coins!!"
"[-] gold coins to buy a lesson!! Couldn't be more cost-effective!!"
"From now on!!" Ge Ya gritted his teeth, "I'll see her once!! Hit her once!!"
After finishing speaking, Geya turned her head and left. When Mena was stunned, she instinctively wanted to catch up.
"Miss Mena," Pound said indifferently, "I managed to help you get rid of Ge Ya, what are you doing chasing after?"
Mena was shocked, unbelievable, trembling as if thrown into an ice cellar, "You...you counted it all?"
Pound shook his head.
"The human heart is evil, how can I?"
***
The next morning, Geya, who was supposed to wake up from a hangover in the rubbish dump on the street corner, found himself lying on a bed with a quilt on his stomach; although he still stinks of alcohol.
Ge Ya almost bounced off the bed, and his first move was to slam down the quilt on his body! !
Resentment surged up like a black cloud, he didn't want the care of that vicious woman! !roll! !Get out of here! !
When Ge Ya thought so, when he got out of bed, he fell heavily! !
Then he struggled to get up, and found that...
His right foot, which had been unable to recover before, was still intact! !
Ge Ya's face changed drastically, and he pinched his ankle that was supposed to be broken! !alright! ?It turned out to be good! ?
Ge Ya couldn't believe it, but was completely clueless, thinking that this was a cruel yet beautiful dream...
After frantically looking around, Ge Ya realized that this was not the small hotel he had originally rented, but another strange room.
Then, a round golden fruit on the head of the bed caught Geya's attention.
Ge Ya rushed over and found a note under the fruit.
"Thirty thousand to buy a lesson is not too expensive.But it's never worth losing the rest of your life. 』
"The tea here is good, you can taste it if Miss Mena likes it," Pound greeted.
Mena, who was sitting lightly on the soft chair, did not have such a leisurely interest as Pound. After the attendants collected the tea sets and left, she said with a little anxiety, "Thank you for your hospitality, and I am sorry for being so late, but I ...Because of the teacher, I couldn't sneak out until this time, it is really a last resort..."
