Chapter 380: Father and Daughter
"I need an extra chair!" A teenage girl wearing an apron and a rag in her hand was cleaning the windows outside the house. Unfortunately, she was not tall enough, and even with a chair, she couldn't touch the window edge above.
The two younger boys grinned and brought another chair for her, and the girl climbed on it. Unexpectedly, as soon as the chair shook, she fell down. The girl let out a scream, and the two boys covered their eyes. However, the girl did not fall to the ground, but was hugged by a man from behind. The girl looked up, and first saw a silver flame. After a moment, I saw that it was pale silver hair reflecting the afternoon sun, and then I saw a pair of fiery red eyes and smiling faces.
"Master Allen!" The girl screamed.
Alan put her on the ground and said, "Mary, it's dangerous to climb so high. ”
He took the rag from the girl and wiped the window for her. After a moment of surprise, the girl hurriedly grabbed the rag and said, "No, no, no, how can you let Young Master Allen do this kind of work, or I'll come." ”
"It's okay, you're Willik's family, and Willik is my brother. So you are also my family, isn't it normal to do some work for your family? Alan turned his head, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, and his smile in the sun was bright and warm, pointing straight to the heart.
Mei Li was stunned for a moment, and then smiled back: "Then I'll go make a cup of tea for Young Master Allen." ”
Then he dragged the two lively little boys into the house, and after a few moments, Alan finished cleaning the windows. Sitting in the hallway of the room, Mary brought a cup of hot tea and placed it next to Alan. Then he sat down beside Allen, looked up and said, "When did you come back?" Brother Willik, he ......"
"Willik has a mission ahead of him, so he can't come back. But he'll be happy to see you having a good time. Alan took out a card from his pocket, put it in Mary's hand, and said, "This is part of Willik's payment since he went on the expedition, and I will give it to you for him first." ”
Mary accepted it and said with a smile, "I'll save it for my brother." Now that Mary is working in the castle, she basically doesn't need her brother's money. ”
"Mary is such a good boy." Alan patted the girl's head and said, "If there is any difficulty, go to Hip Sin Butler, and I will let him take care of you." ”
"Well, thank you, young master."
At this time, there was a loud cry of children in the house, and several little ghosts ran out and shouted around Allen, "Master Allen, tell us what is in the outer lands?" ”
One boy stretched out his arms vigorously and described, "Is there such a big monster?" ”
Mei Li said angrily: "The young master just came back, don't pester him!" ”
"It's okay." Alan clapped his hands to the side and asked the children to sit next to him, and Alan said, "There are indeed such big monsters, and they are very fierce." But your brother Willik is very brave, he can defeat such a monster alone. ”
"Wow, really?"
"I knew Big Willik was the best!"
"No, Master Allen is also very powerful, I heard what Brother Willik said!"
This afternoon, Alan enjoyed a rare leisurely time. Staying with these children, it seems that even the sun is a candy color. In their world, there is no conspiracy and framing, let alone killing and harm. They are the most precious treasure in the world, just like Alan's lost childhood.
Far away on the other side of Babylon, in the suite used to entertain important VIPs, Metalon looked at Lucy helplessly: "Your Highness, are you going to talk to Your Majesty like this?" ”
Lucy looked at herself in casual clothes: "Is there anything wrong with this?" ”
"There's something wrong with the etiquette."
"Really? I don't think it's a big deal, if you want to be angry, let the old man be angry enough. Lucy said heartlessly.
Metalong said with a headache: "His Majesty is very angry and worried when he learns that His Highness has lost the Star Domain, but he still loves you. ”
"He's worried that the Golden Rose will also disappear with me."
"Your Highness, your misunderstanding of His Majesty is too deep."
Lucy suddenly stood up and said, "Misunderstanding? Teacher, you are mistaken, if it weren't for me to resonate with the Golden Rose, do you think the great Ofascist Emperor would have looked at his own daughter? Of course, the emperor has so many wives and concubines and children, how could he notice a mere concubine! ”
"How come, the Emperor and your mother are truly in love. Otherwise, how could he ignore the opposition of the royal family and insist on marrying your mother. ”
"The Emperor is probably greedy for freshness. No, not one of his wives is from the people. Oh, I heard she is kind of similar to my mother. Lucy lowered her head and said hatefully, "What's more, if he really cares about his mother, why doesn't he even come to see her for the last time!" I absolutely ...... Absolutely will not forgive him! ”
Metalon could only sigh softly, and at this time, the projection curtain wall on the wall popped up a progress bar for the image connection. The Marquis stood up and said, "Your Highness, get ready, Your Majesty is going to talk to you." ”
Moments later, there was an image in the curtain wall. The first thing that enters the picture is a gorgeous throne of white gold and encrusted with precious stones. Then a figure flashed and sat upright on the throne. It was a burly man, over half a hundred years old, with silver-gray hair tied in a crown embellished with crystal beads. The face full of majesty has frosty eyebrows flying obliquely, and the eyes are extremely sharp. He wore ornate platinum armor, and every graceful curve on that armor was carefully designed.
It's just a simple sitting posture, but it sits out of the taste of Yuanyu Yuezhi. Although it is only an image, the brilliant domineering spirit is rushing to the face.
Facing the supreme king of Adahua, Metalon put his hand on his chest and bowed.
This man, of course, is Lucy's father, the Great Ofasc.
"Lucy."
"I have seen the great, respected, merciful, brave, and glorious Ofascist Emperor." Lucy said honorifics in her mouth, but there was no sincerity on her face, and even there was a faint sarcasm in her words, which could be heard by anyone who was not deaf.
Ofascist frowned slightly and said, "Lucy, is this the tone you should use to your father?" ”
Lucy deliberately showed a surprised expression: "It turns out that the emperor still remembers my daughter, it's really a great honor." ”
"You kid." Ofascist shook his head helplessly and said, "Lucy, after all these years, can't you forgive me?" Child, I love you no less than your other brothers and sisters. ”
"But I have so many brothers and sisters." Lucy is like a rebellious girl, who fights her father for tat.
Ofascist gave a headache look and glanced at Metalon. The latter remained silent, apparently not wanting to meddle in the father-daughter affair. Ofasc only sighed lightly and said, "No matter what you think, I will protect you." Lucy, it's time for you to go home, and don't keep wandering around. ”
"No, I'm going to stay here."
"Why? Because of that kid named Alan? Ofasc snorted, "A mere member of the nobility of the earth, his identity is not worthy of you, Lucy. ”
Lucy sneered, "Oh, of course. In your heart, only the son of Duke Ozma, or the child of Uncle Griffo's family, is your ideal marriage partner. Isn't it? ”
"I definitely didn't think about taking advantage of your political chips, but Lucy, you have to admit it. Isn't what you're saying true? Ofascist said: "You are a noble princess, the holder of the holy artifact Golden Rose. No matter which identity it is, it's not that kid who can afford it. ”
"But I love him, not his identity, Your Majesty!" Lucy said vigorously: "Before he knew my identity, from the moment he never left me, I knew that he was the person in my life who could not be missed!" ”
"But he's just a commoner!" Ofasc could not help but roar at last, he had always been the same, and no one had ever dared to disobey him. How could he have been like this daughter now, rushing into him again and again.
"Yes, he's just a commoner. Well, exercising my rights as a holder of the Hallows and I request to withdraw from the royal family. That way, you won't be disgraced! ”
Metalon shook his head and sighed, things had finally gotten to the point he didn't want to see.
The eyes of the osfascist in the picture lit up with a dazzling light, as if there was a sun hidden in those eyes. He said angrily: "You have to abandon your royal status for the sake of a wild boy who came from nowhere. Lucy, you're so headstrong! It's so capricious! ”
"I don't think, I just know, there are some things that have to be insisted on." Lucy looked directly at the lion-like Ofasc: "Isn't this just like what you did back then?" If you can insist on marrying my mother, why can't I insist on staying with him? ”
This sentence seemed to hit the soft underbelly of the Ofascist, and the emperor's gaze was mixed with something else, and there was even a few seconds of distraction. Then the light in his eyes gradually faded, and he shook his head and said, "That's it, Lucy." I don't want to force you, you can stay, but you can't leave the royal family. Child, one day, you will know that I will always be your father, not an emperor. ”
Lucy's eyes were a little complicated, and finally bowed, "Thank you for your generosity...... 陛xià. ”
Then take your leave and leave.
The atmosphere in the hall was a little awkward, and after a moment, Ofascist said, "I'm smiling at you, old friend." ”
Metalon shook his head and said, "I'm also a father, so I feel the same way." We all want the best for our children, so we let them follow the path we have paved. However, we don't know if our children like to walk this path. Perhaps, their lives should be left to their own decisions. ”
"I know, but I owe that kid so much that I can't help but intervene." Ofasc smiled helplessly, at this moment, he was no longer the king of justice, but just an ordinary father. R1058
