Chapter 48 The Normal Brother
After saying that, the man looked back at her, his red pupils like a bottomless sea of blood.
He didn't answer, just walked away slowly.
After confirming that Saloi had really left, Lu Zhizhi really relaxed and walked to the tree with weak legs to sit against it. The tears hanging on her face were dried by the wind. She was exhausted and didn't want to leave anymore. She just hoped that Lu Yuan could find her.
Lu Zhizhi couldn't help hugging her knees and shrinking her body. Only then did she realize that she had been holding a cross tightly in her hand from the beginning. She must have been too afraid to tear it off from Saloi's body just now.
The cross is very small, with a human figure vaguely engraved on it, and it looks like it is tied to the cross.
"Bad luck!"
She used her last bit of strength to throw the cross far away and smashed it into the mud not far away.
Lu Zhizhi fell asleep leaning against the tree trunk unknowingly. In her hazy state, she felt a warm arm hugging her tightly. There were sounds coming and going around her, but she couldn't hear it clearly and didn't want to hear it. .
Until she woke up and found herself back in her room.
"Brother?"
Lu Yuan was leaning on the sofa. He was still wearing yesterday's clothes. He was wearing a suit vest, the sleeves of his shirt were rolled up, and two buttons were opened at the collar. Two strands of hair were hanging down. He was a little different from his usual meticulousness.
Hearing her voice, the man opened his eyes and regained consciousness after a brief period of confusion.
"Did you sleep here last night?"
Lu Yuan nodded when he heard this, and the first thing he did when he came over was to touch her forehead.
"You had a low fever last night."
Lu Zhizhi blinked twice and touched his forehead.
"It doesn't seem to be hot anymore."
"Well, let's observe for a few more days. Don't go out recently and have a good rest at home."
Noticing that his voice was a little hoarse, Lu Zhizhi looked up at him and saw that his brows and eyes were a little tired, and there were some light bruises at the corners of his mouth?
"Brother, what's wrong with your face?"
Lu Yuan stood by the bed and looked at her. Lu Zhizhi suddenly had an alarm, covering his butt and moving back, looking at his face.
"You said you wanted to break off your engagement with Heffel. Are you serious?"
Lu Zhizhi didn't expect that he was going to ask this, and thought he was going to accuse her of exposing her mental power, so she breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, and asked, "Is that okay?"
Lu Yuan lowered his eyes and asked: "Why?"
He seemed to think for a few seconds before adding: "Didn't you like him before?"
Lu Zhizhi was stunned for a moment and said: "Do you like it? I don't remember. But I know that I don't like it now. The most important thing is that I don't want to marry anyone."
After saying that, Lu Yuan suddenly raised his eyes to look at her, a flash of light flashing in his eyes, but the emotions in his eyes were too complicated for her to understand.
"Okay. Don't get married. My brother can support you for a lifetime."
Lu Zhizhi smiled, "It's just my choice not to get married. Brother can get married. In fact, I've wanted to say it for a long time. Brother can't tie me to a belt all my life. You also have your own life."
After listening to her words, Lu Yuan took a controlled, intermittent deep breath, lowered his shoulders, and lowered his head to hide his expression.
"My parents want me to take care of you. This is the most important thing in my life."
Lu Zhizhi hugged the quilt and suddenly felt a little sad, not for himself, but for Lu Yuan.
She climbed from the bed to him, standing on the edge of the bed only a head taller than him.
Lu Zhizhi spread her arms and hugged his head, patted his back, and said softly: "Brother, you can have your own life and do what you really want to do. I am willing to be second to you for the time being." . Your and my first priority should be ourselves.”
Lu Yuan's eyelids trembled, and he closed his eyes in her arms. He slowly raised his hand that had been hanging down, stayed in the air for a long time, and finally gently put his arm around her waist.
He restrained his emotions and asked, "Why is he temporarily second?" "Because I will have a sister-in-law in the future, so I will give up my position." Lu Zhizhi put her hand on his shoulder and said with a smile, "I don't I will compete with my sister-in-law for favor, don’t worry, I am very sensible.”
After a while, she saw Lu Yuan seemed to smile, but the smile was like crying.
"Okay." Lu Yuan's voice was hoarse as if it had been rubbed with sandpaper, and he said solemnly: "You will be a sensible sister, and I will be a normal brother."
After saying that, he took Lu Zhizhi's arm and pulled her away, walked to the sofa alone, picked up his coat, and put it on his arm as elegantly as before.
Lu Zhizhi stood beside the bed in a daze. Before he opened the door and walked out, he held the door handle and said, "Sleep a little longer. I'll make the drunken shrimp you like to eat tonight." Then he walked out and closed the door.
Everything looks normal.
Lu Zhizhi tilted his head towards the closed door. He felt something was strange, but couldn't put it into words.
Separated by a door, outside, the man who stood tall and tall a second ago was leaning weakly against the door at this moment.
He held his coat in one hand and dragged it on the ground, and covered his eyes with the back of his other hand.
Lu Yuan counted 20 silently in his mind.
He only gave himself time for 20 counts.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
After counting 20, he stood up straight with his hands on the door frame and walked step by step towards the end of the long and deep corridor.
After the talent test, Lu Zhizhi received three letters in one day.
A letter came from the Senate, first congratulating her on awakening her spiritual power. At the same time, the senior officials of the Senate sent her an invitation to move into the Senate and become a saint.
Lu Zhizhi asked Ms. Ke Wen what the saint did, but the answer she got was that she didn't need to do anything.
"If Miss really becomes a saint, it will be the spiritual belief of everyone on the main planet. The Senate will build a church for you. If you want, you can occasionally accept people's worship. If you don't want to, it doesn't matter, because your existence itself is important to you. It’s a kind of happiness for people.”
After Lu Zhizhi heard this, he threw the letter into the trash can.
She would be 120% vigilant against any attempt to glue her alive into a clay sculpture and hold her up high.
When you are expected to be perfect, it is the beginning of all misery.
So she went on to read the second letter, which was from the military department.
There was only an ultra-thin transparent electronic business card in the envelope, with Lu Zhizhi's name written on it and his military rank below.
Oh my god, she became a major!
Lu Zhizhi ran to Lu Yuan's desk holding his business card and asked him what was going on. Lu Yuan explained that it was the people from the military who awarded her the honor in order to win her over to be their exclusive guide. , to put it bluntly, it is just a name that looks good to bluff people, but in fact it has no real power and no soldiers under its command.
"Tsk, draw a cake for me?"
When she came back, she threw her business card into the box where the housekeeper kept her dentures.
Next came the third letter, which was sent from the Interstellar Central Command. First of all, it was completely different from the other two envelopes in appearance. The envelope from the Senate was inlaid with gold and sealed with fire paint, while the envelope from the Military Department was so sharp that it almost cut her finger. It was full of a cold sense of technology.
The envelope of this headquarters is a large whiteboard with only the blue logo of the Interstellar Central Command printed on the upper right corner, revealing a minimalist style without money.
Lu Zhizhi tore open the envelope, and the smell of ink hit her face. It was a handwritten letter, which first introduced her to the current situation of the headquarters, then detailed the benefits that could be provided to her, and finally stated that she hoped to join the White House. Tower and become a guide.
She looked at the signature on the lower right, Chasi. The smiling tiger I once saw on Aqua Blue Star.
The style of this letter was pragmatic, crisp and no-nonsense, but it was a bit different from the Qia Xi in her impression.
The letter stated that if you accepted the invitation, you were welcome to report to his office at ten o'clock in the morning in three days.
Ms. Ke Wen asked from the side: "Miss, whose invitation are you going to accept?"
Lu Zhizhi lay on the bed, covered his face with the letter and said nothing.
Under the letter, a smart and cunning smile appeared on the delicate little face.
