Chapter 426: Stepfather

Chino was willing to buy the natural treasures from the northern snow fields at a price 10 times higher than the market price according to the contract, which made Bao very happy.

The two then continued to confirm some details, and there were no disagreements, which can be described as a happy conversation.

After the contract was confirmed, there was nothing else, and Chino went to work.

Po was granted permission to move freely and was allowed to come and go as he pleased.

After leaving the living room, Ah Bao and Hu Shanrong came to the bedroom.

Hu Shanrong chewed on the branch and asked, "How is it?" ”

Ah Bao was smiling and smoking a specialty cigarette at this time: "Paladin is a smart man, but the city government is a little worse." Chino is a terrible person, he can swallow this breath with a smile, and his methods are very sophisticated, no wonder he became an archon at a young age. ”

Hu Shanrong asked: "Do you want to report to the imperial court?" ”

"No, experienced is sophisticated, but I don't see any higher level, this kind of person is not worthy of being written into my flying book to the saint." Ah Bao casually put out the cigarette in the tea on the table, and looked out the window with interest, "Let's go, come here, take a good look." ”

...

Since being promoted to the "Captain of the Guard" of the Death Legion, Niko is no longer the small close guard she used to be, and she no longer has to perform low-level tasks such as standing guard and patrolling.

But unlike Lugo's stubborn and drunken nature, Niko is still very self-disciplined after her rise to the top, rarely drinking or spending time in her spare time, but practicing swords in the training grounds, rain or shine, and she cuts more dummies a day than others in a week.

No, after the meeting between Chino and Po, Niko ran to the training ground to practice swordsmanship, and Roman was idle and had nothing to do, so he practiced with her here.

The two are old acquaintances, they get along very well, sometimes serious, you attack me, sometimes relax, and talk and laugh about today's interesting things.

"Bang bang." Suddenly, an untimely round of applause rang out.

I saw Po strolling to the training ground at some point, looking at Roman and Niko with a smile, giving a thumbs up and saying, "I practice swords here whenever I have time, Archon Chino's subordinates are too diligent." ”

Niko's impression of Po is very bad, it's not surprising, a man just saw you, and asked how much money could buy you as a concubine, and the impression would be good, there would be ghosts.

Roman and Po have nothing to do with each other, but Nico is his friend, Po has offended Niko, and the image of Po in his heart can be imagined.

Therefore, neither of them paid attention to Po.

Po didn't regard himself as an outsider at all, and in the face of Niko's cold face, he greeted him warmly: "Still angry with me? I'm really sorry, I really didn't know who you were at the time, otherwise I wouldn't have said that. ”

Niko said coldly: "No matter what your identity is, you can't just say that kind of thing when you first meet, it's not respectful at all. ”

"Hahaha, well said! I, apologize~" Ah Bao stretched out his hand and slapped it lightly on the side of his face, the corners of his eyes wrinkled with a smile on his tail lines, and said, "Okay, let's turn this over, how about it?" ”

Po was Chino's guest, and she was smiling, and Nico couldn't say anything more, she pointed behind Po with her sword, and said something: "Mr. Po, the garden is in that direction, why don't you go to the garden and sit?" The birds there are singing and the flowers are fragrant, which is much more interesting than the deserted training ground. You can ask the chef to help you make some refreshments and enjoy the flowers there. ”

"Oh ~ Great idea! I do like to enjoy flowersβ€”" Po teased as he approached Niko, deliberately bent his knees to eye her level, and laughed, "but now, flowers that are more beautiful than the flowers in the garden are in front of me." ”

There are two kinds of love stories, romantic love stories and earthy love stories.

Romantic love stories are like fine wine, which makes people fascinated.

Earthy love words only give people goosebumps.

Po is now talking about earthy love words.

If the earthy love words come out of the mouth of the person she likes, it will be a little interesting, but from Po's mouth, Niko only felt that her scalp was numb, she sighed helplessly, and did not talk nonsense, turned around and continued to practice sword with Roman.

"Da, da, da..."

Niko expressed the eviction order in this form, but Po still didn't leave, and said with a smile while watching the battle: "You know what? I'm actually very fond of the kind of girls with poor fate, and taking care of them gives me a sense of protection. ”

"Niko, you haven't experienced what it's like to be cared for in a long time since your father died, right?"

Neko's defenses slackened, and it happened so suddenly that Roman didn't have time to retract and slashed her in the shoulder.

Luckily, the sparring was done with wooden weapons, otherwise the slash would have made Niko's blood splatter on the spot.

Roman quickly put away the knife and greeted him with concern: "Niko, are you okay?" Let me see if it hurts. ”

Niko shook off Roman's hand irritably, walked up to Po menacingly, and asked in a cold voice, "Why do you know about my family?" ”

Ah Bao stretched out his hand, and his smiling mouth was full of gold tooth light: "Up to the sky, down to the terrain, thousands of lights in the world, there is nothing that I Ah Bao doesn't know." ”

"What's more, your father is a big man, one of the three musketeers of the royal city 13 years ago who was as famous as the "Sword of Daybreak" Denisha 13 years ago, and his sword skills are still worshipped."

Niko lowered her eyes, her fists clenched tightly, her body trembling from time to time, and she didn't say a word.

Ah Bao sighed: "A girl whose mother died early and lost her father at a young age, I can't be more aware of the loneliness of childhood. Eager for love, longing for a sense of belonging, if someone gives her affirmation and recognition when she is confused, she will see this person as a confidant, full of respect for him, and loyal as a rock. ”

Niko seemed to be knocked into the memory by Po, biting her lower lip silently, and even oozing some blood because she was too hard.

"Like I said, I love the girls who have a poor fate, I like to protect them, and I like to take care of them. Some girls lack love since childhood, and strength is just a disguise on the surface, and deep down she longs for the elderly and longs to be taken care of. In that case, why doesn't this girl come with me? Po stretched out his hand and slowly stroked Niko's fair cheeks, his voice full of inducement, "Come, let me be your father, I swear to love you well, good daughter~"

"Smack." Before Po's hand touched Niko, it was already slapped away by Roman.

Roman stopped in front of Nieko to protect her, pointed to Po's nose, and warned, "Be respectful." ”

"Oh!" Po pretended to be taken aback, and said with an exaggerated expression, "Roman guards? I didn't even notice you were here, it scared me! ”

Roman's expression sank suddenly.

Niko's father is a big man, and it's normal to be investigated, but she used to be just a soldier in the Guards Legion, and she had no background, and she was actually found by Po... This guy's intelligence network is truly terrifying.

"Hmm~ I remember you were a warrior with a knife, right?" Ah Bao pointed to Hu Shanrong behind him, and said playfully, "My little brother also uses a knife, and he used to be the head of the Gyeonggi Forbidden Army Sword Sect. Hey, Hu Shanrong, who do you think is stronger than Roman's knife skills? ”

Hu Shanrong took off the branch that he had been holding in his mouth, spat on the ground, revealing his rotten teeth full of dirt, and sneered: "This kind of rookie, I will cut one by one." ”
