Raising Octopus Juvenile - Chapter 14
“Master Odis, is there anything else for you?”
Lena, who was rushing to listen to the next lesson, was stopped by Alex again, which made her a little unhappy.
“It’s the prom. I haven’t finished talking just now.” Alex touched his nose covertly, his dark green eyes dodged and wandered, “Actually, I want to say that if no one invites you, I would You can reluctantly, act as your dancing partner…”
Lena: “…”
After finally understanding Alex’s intentions, she bit her lower lip embarrassedly, not knowing how to reply for a while.
Hidden in the dark, Cecil saw that his chance was coming, so he removed the invisibility technique and walked out from behind the nearby wall.
“Lina, Master Odis? What are you doing here?” She frowned slightly, looking surprised and disgusted.
“Sister Cecil!” When Lena saw her, she whispered happily as if she had seen a savior.
“It’s you?” Alex made no secret of the displeasure on his face.
Cecil walked to Lena indifferently, and Lena whispered to her the content of her conversation with Alex.
“Master Odis just now asked if I would attend the college dance party.”
“Oh.” Cecil showed a standard wicked face and sneered unceremoniously. “Master Odis asked why this? Is it because you want to invite Lena to be your dancing partner?”
Alex’s white face instantly became red because of Cecil’s words.
“none of your business.”
“Of course it’s my business, after all, she is my sister now.” Cecil said, “but I advise Master Odis to be invited by someone else. Lena has been living a civilian life since she was a child, but she has no chance. Learn the dance of the nobles. When you make a fool of yourself at the ball, you will lose not only the face of our Levitt family, but also your Master Otis.”
She played the bitterness to the fullest, and Alex looked at her contemptuously and said, “Change someone? Who else, are you?”
This arrogant young master is so innocent, he gets the bait as soon as he catches it.
Cecil pretended to hold his mouth in a restrained manner, and his tone revealed unconcealed joy: “It’s not impossible…”
“Hmph, dream.” Alex interrupted her in disgust, “I would rather let Lena, who can’t dance, be my partner than invite people like you.”
Cecil: “You!”
After speaking, Alex turned his gaze to Lena again: “Lina, I am waiting for your reply. See you next time.”
Lena: “Master Odis…”
Alex left chicly, leaving Cecil and Lena standing there.
Cecil completed today’s task with ease, and finally his mood improved. Lena looked at her eagerly and suddenly said, “Sister Cecil, thank you so much just now.”
Cecil: “…Huh?”
Is something wrong, thank her for being ridiculed by her?
She could hardly control her expression in surprise. However, Lena didn’t care about this. She continued to say in a sincere tone, “If you didn’t come out just now, I really don’t know what to do… Actually you’re right. I’ve never learned to dance. Everyone has to practice as soon as possible to join the dance party…”
Cecil: “…”
Although she has always known that Lena, who is the heroine, is very kind, but Cecil really did not expect to be so kind that she can’t understand other people’s ridicule. Maybe this can no longer be called kindness, but simply can’t understand human words?
She felt powerless again: “Don’t think about it, no matter how you practice, you won’t be able to dance better than me.”
Lina heard the words, her clear blue eyes flashed: “Then you will teach me, sister, right?”
Cecil: “???”
Cecil felt that something was wrong with Lena.
If she is not a fool, she has another plan.
But Cecil didn’t care what Lena’s intention was, because it had nothing to do with her. The only thing she can do is to play her role as her villain daughter and let the world see her dedication.
“I won’t teach you, go find someone else.” Cecil firmly rejected Lena.
Lena said weakly: “But…I am not familiar with others…”
“Is that familiar with me?” Cecil said bluntly, “You are just a father’s child and have nothing to do with me. I hope you don’t always take me for granted as your family. I have no interest in playing with you.” This kind of play house game.”
One or two are like this, as if they should be friendly with her, but unfortunately she doesn’t have that kind of leisure.
She is different from anyone in this world. They are living people, and she is a **** controlled by the world, and will be discarded at any time because of a wrong step.
So she only needs to play the role of the villain seriously. As for being friendly, that is not something she should consider.
“I didn’t force you to be my family, I just…just…”
Lena was overwhelmed by what Cecil said. She hesitated for a long time, and suddenly came out: “If you don’t be a family member, can you be a friend?”
Cecil: “?”
When it comes to this, I still want to be friends… Is she shaking M?
Cecil was choked very rarely. Seeing her in a daze, Lena immediately hugged one of her arms and pulled her forward affectionately, “It’s okay to teach dancing between friends? That’s OK. You must teach me to dance. Ah…”
Cecil was speechless, even forgetting to refuse, and for a while let Lena pull her.
“No, no, I didn’t mean that…” After a few seconds, she finally recovered her voice, and was interrupted by Lena when she was about to explain.
“As long as you teach me to dance and you will be late again in the future, I will help you cover, okay?”
“…”
It seems, is it not bad?
Cecil was silent for a moment, and in Lena’s eagerly expectant eyes, he finally chose to compromise.
“…All right.”
The one-day course is quickly over.
After class, because he didn’t want to go back with Lena, and considering that Lena was still waiting for her in the carriage, Cecil made another excuse to let Lena go first.
Although Lina was very sorry about this, she was worried that her father would have to wait at home in a hurry, so she got into her carriage and went home first.
Cecil sat in the classroom alone, and took advantage of this free opportunity to take out the “Black Magic Handbook” written by Bode to her and read it carefully. By the way, I circled the part that I couldn’t understand, and planned to go to the Dark Tower tomorrow. Ask Bode again when
I don’t know how long I watched, but seeing that it was getting late outside and all the students in the academy were gone, she put away the “Black Magic Handbook”, smoothed the folds of the skirt, and got up to go home.
However, as soon as she walked out of the long corridor, a clear and somewhat familiar voice stopped her.
“Hey, from Levitt’s…then who.”
Calling her?
Cecil looked over at the sound, and saw a handsome, red-haired boy at the end of the long corridor.
It turned out to be Alex.
Cecil stood quietly and did not move, but did not rush to ask: “Master Odis, you call me?”
“Yes, that’s you.” Alex’s voice was very small, echoing vaguely in the empty promenade, “Come here.”
Cecil did not move. Today’s task has been completed, there is no need to accompany the young master to act. However, she was a little curious about the reason why Alex was still staying in the academy at this time.
“I’m in a hurry to go home, and tell me if I have something to do, not to say I’m leaving.”
She dropped the sentence coldly, and Alex paused delicately and walked over slowly.
Cecil just noticed that he was still holding a quill in his hand.
“Actually, I want to ask you…” the red-haired boy awkwardly said, “Will you do the homework of “Introduction to Magic Language Professional”?”
So I wanted her to help with homework.
Cecil wanted to laugh a little.
In fact, it is not difficult for her to do homework at all. Apart from anything else, learning has always been something she is very good at. only…
Cecil glanced at him silently, and said flatly: “I only know a little bit. Lena has learned this course well, you can ask her.”
Alex immediately said: “How can I ask Lena!”
“Oh? How can’t it?” Cecil stared at him inexplicably, and Alex coughed slightly and explained in a secretive manner.
“This, this kind of trivial matter, I can solve it myself, there is no need to trouble her…”
To put it so nicely, you just don’t want to expose your shortcomings in front of Lena, right?
Cecil opened his hands and looked lazy: “Since you can solve it by yourself, please do it yourself. I’m going home.”
After speaking, she turned and left. Upon seeing this, Alex quickly reached out and stopped her: “Wait! So, as long as you help me with my homework, I will reward you with something!”
Cecil smiled but smiled: “Little master, I am also a child of the earl’s family, not a beggar who has never seen the world.”
Alex was not annoyed when he heard that, but raised his chin and asked her: “Then have you seen a mermaid?”
This… I haven’t seen it.
Cecil showed a curious look: “Is that the beautiful mermaid?”
The young master let out a sneer: “If you want to be beautiful, don’t you know that beautiful mermaids are forbidden to hunt? They are very ugly ones.”
“…Oh.”
Cecilton’s interest halved.
But after all, she had never seen a mermaid, and she was somewhat curious. Besides, she also wanted to add a new neighbor to Xiaoyi. It seems that using mermaid as a neighbor is much cooler than other ordinary fish, so thinking that this deal is not bad.
So Cecil agreed.
The two of them sat in the empty classroom and began to do the questions seriously—to be precise, Cecil was doing the questions seriously, while Alex was blatantly fishing on the side.
Time passed slowly, unconsciously, it was pitch black outside. Cecil was too lazy to light up the lamp, so he looked at the question by the faint moonlight.
In the classroom, there was only the slurping sound of a quill pen on the paper, and the quiet drop of needles could be heard. Finally, after finishing the last question, Cecil put down his pen and called: “Master Odis.”
Addicted to fishing, did not pay attention.
“Master Odis.”
Continue to indulge, continue to ignore it.
“Alex, are you dead?”
“You just died!” Alex immediately retorted fiercely.
“So you’re not dead,” Cecil said slowly, “Come and see, it’s all done.”
Only then did Alex turn his eyes to her.
The girl’s skin was white and delicate, glowing with clear light in the dark. The slightly curly white long hair was as flawless as ice and snow, and the moonlight came in through the window, and a silvery cold brilliance flowed on her hair.
…Too white and a bit dazzling.
Alex looked away subconsciously, and the peripheral light swept across the arched window on one side.
It is wide and clean, reflecting the dense mist lingering under the moonlight.
The next second, he suddenly froze in place.
In the thicker and thicker fog, a huge scarlet eye was exposed. This eyeball is bigger than the window frame, and it is now close to the glass, staring at him without blinking.
