Demon King Dad

: The fourth year story 008, the innocence in the sludge

The idiot exhaled and watched Xingli stand up and looked at herself. Xing Li seemed to be waiting for the idiot to speak at first, but after waiting for a long time, she tilted her head with a smile.

"Ah, I remember! You came here for this thing, right?" Xingli raised a finger, as if thinking of something, she immediately showed an apologetic expression, stepped back, and slowly bowed to the idiot. He bowed, "Sorry, I have been busy all this time, and I forgot. You should have come to ask for my textbook from last semester? I'm sorry, sorry, I forgot about it. That... I will clean up the shop, can you please come with me to my house and take a trip?"

To her house? !

The idiot was shocked! Her home... is her territory. Now, this person has openly invited herself to her site! What is her purpose? Behind this behavior, what kind of conspiracy is hidden?

To be cautious, the idiot did not move. His complexion was even colder, and the eyes that stared directly at Xing Li were covered with a thick layer of frost. After she walked into the shop, the idiot finally mustered up the courage and asked——

"What exactly do you want me to do."

The gloomy voice was enough to make anyone who heard it shudder. But Xing Li turned her head, her face looked very confused.

"What do I want you to do???? What do I want you to do?"

Stakes... a strong acting! This person may be as good as "Princess" Walnut in acting! The expression of pretending harmless can be so natural. You know, where in the world there will be unprovoked pies falling on your head? It’s not normal for you to send a book, a small bun overturned your goods without asking for compensation, and finally a sachet.

What is she thinking? Give me so many benefits, what are you going to use me to do for her? !

The cold sweat came out from behind the idiot. You know, sewer rats have unlimited fear of the unknown. If you can't guess what those "predators" are thinking, mice will become food in their stomachs at any time.

The idiot was wary, his right hand had been retracted behind his back, and Dimie was also held in his own hand. But of course his thoughts could not be conveyed to Xing Li. The little shopkeeper turned around and looked at the idiot. A minute later, she once again showed a soft and sunny smile——

"What's the matter with you? Sir."

The breeze brushed her skirt. The long golden hair shines brightly in the afternoon sun...

"Xing Li————————!!!"

Suddenly, a rough voice broke the silence. When the people around who were still shopping heard this sound, their complexion immediately changed, put down the things in their hands and hurried away. And Xing Li, who had always kept a smile just now, also had a sudden change behind this roar. She lowered her head, placed her hands in front of her properly, and began to quietly pick up the shop.

However, she was still too slow to clean up. In a short while, a man in a housekeeper's uniform, about fifty years old, walked from the market with a wheelchair. On the wheelchair, there was a middle-aged man who was in his forties, with two gray moustaches on his lips, and a thin face that seemed to have been cut by a knife. From the blanket on his knees, this man...has no right leg.

The housekeeper walked over with his wheelchair, and when he saw Xingli and the shop, his face immediately showed concern. The person in the wheelchair was even more angry at this moment. He glared at Xingli, who was busy packing up things. After a few grunts in his throat, he said in a voice that was clearly suppressed: "You, get me back."

The warm early spring was instantly covered by the gloomy cold wind. All the people in the market were silent, holding their breath, watching the developments in front of them.

"...Yes, my father."

Xing Li bowed to the person in the wheelchair, and then started to pack things again.

but……

"I told you to go back immediately! Didn't you hear?!"

The person in the wheelchair suddenly patted the wheelchair armrest, and the wooden armrest was shaken by him. It could be seen that the man's face had been filled with blood because of his anger. The butler behind him looked at it and hurriedly lowered his head to persuade him. Afterwards, he turned to Xing Li and said softly and fearfully: "Young Master, please hurry up! Look... the master is angry..."

Xing Li was also taken aback by the anger of his father just now, and the bag of flour he was holding almost fell to the ground. She looked at the things in her hands and in the shop that hadn't been picked up, looked at the wheelchair timidly, and said softly, "But my father, these things..."

"You still say!"

The person in the wheelchair yelled again. It can be seen that he is already very dissatisfied with Xing Li, if it weren't for the fact that many people in the market now watch it, he would definitely burst out immediately.

Xingli lowered her head, her silver teeth biting her pink lower lip secretly. When the person in the wheelchair saw Xingli's appearance like this, a color of hatred for iron and steel flashed in his eyes, and he turned the wheelchair around and screamed secretly—

"Being depraved. Depraved."

He scolded very softly, maybe no one except him could hear it. But from the shape of his mouth, the idiot still saw the word. He turned his head and saw that the housekeeper had walked to Xingli's side in a hurry and began to comfort him.

"Young master, you also know that the master has never liked your surrender status. You are the successor of the next earl. With your capacity, how can you set up a stall in such a small townsman market? You are... I don’t respect myself..."

Xing Li still bit her lip. The idiot could see that her hands were trembling, and there were two blushes on her originally white and flawless face. After thinking for a long time, she finally put down the flour in her hand, pinched the hem of her skirt, walked to the wheelchair, and lowered her head.

"My father..."

The sound is slight. That slender body stood alone in the cold wind.

".................."

The originally clear sky was also covered by gray clouds at this moment.

"If there is no other way... I am afraid that even our family's food... will be a problem..."

"Snapped!"

No words, no signs. The current head of the Rooney family returned his hand and gave Xingli a slap and knocked her to the ground. At the same time, icy rain fell from the sky, pouring on her without mercy. The mud also stained her clothes at this moment...

"Young master! Ah, master!"

The housekeeper hurriedly took out the umbrella from behind the wheelchair and opened it. He looked at Xingli, then at the earl, and after hesitating for a while, he finally hit the umbrella over the wheelchair. As for Xingli, she could only hold her red face under the rain and commit herself to the mire.

"A thing that is not enterprising and does not know dignity!"

The spring rain was pouring, and the shops on the market had already packed their things and left. In the empty market, the current earl finally pointed at the star glass on the ground and shouted loudly——

"Xingli Rooney answer. Have you forgotten your dignity as the heir to the earl? You are a nobleman, and you were born in the noble Rooney family! Yes, the current Rooney family is indeed not as good as before. But this is not the reason why you give up your dignity and come here to show your laughter! Look at yourself, what do you look like? Do you think that if you run this store here, others will look up to us? No, you are just making us Rooney answer The family is even more ashamed!"

On the pale face, five deep fingerprints are clearly visible. The heavy rain hit her face, rolling down her cheek...

Xing Li didn't refute...Her smiling eyes were now full of gray. She stood up silently, and stood in front of her father with her head down, motionless to let the rain corrode.

Spring rain...

Is it cold?

Bun shrank in the arms of the idiot, and the two hid under the awning beside him.

Maybe... it's really cold.

But colder than the spring rain, it may be the kind of disappointment that penetrates the bones...

"Ten days later, the Bucks Empire will select candidates to go to the Black Dragon Empire for a friendly battle. There are only ten people. I want you to be one of them. Your sister has disappeared, and I can't count on her marriage. Revitalize our Rooney family. Therefore, you must recognize your own identity for me and make the greatest contribution to the prosperity and revival of our family!"

The ice rain invaded the snow-white skin through the thin shirt.

Xing Li lifted those godless gray pupils and nodded silently——

"Yes... Father Father."

After so long, the earl finally got the answer he wanted. The dust on his face was finally washed away, and he put on a satisfied smile. However, the father obviously did not pay attention to the gloom on his child's face, he was just dreaming of the family dream of renewing prosperity.

"Very well, this is the child of my Rooney family. Xingli, it's not that your father is forcing you, but you don't even know the priorities. As long as you can become one of the ten, you can bring one back in the Black Dragon Empire. If you win every field, then you will definitely become the shining new star of the Bucks Empire in the future! At that time, all the honor and wealth will be obtained, and you don’t need to do this kind of cheap goods trading. You know, wait for you ten When I was eight years old, I would pass on the title of earl to you, so you must have this kind of consciousness."

"Yes... Father Father."

"Well, not bad! Good boy! Now, throw away all these useless things and go back and practice swords for me."

"Yes... Father Father."

"Hehehe, my Rooney family's chance to take off again has finally come! This humiliation that has been held for fifteen years can finally be repaid! Well, but there should be many strong people coming to grab this by then. Ten seats. It would be nice if you can find some support."

"Yes... Father Father."

"Wait a minute, I seem to have heard Quirin say before, she seems to have helped someone, and then that person promised to meet all the requirements of our family? Haha, my family’s Xingli is very strong, so it should be no problem to enter the top ten. . But if you can get the first place... Hey, forget it. Let’s go home, Xingli."

"Yes…………"

"My father..."

In the rain, the wheelchair pulled out two shallow marks on the mud. Under the care of the umbrella and the butler, the Lord Earl walked towards home with great interest. And the rain also poured on that delicate body. The crystal drops of water slid down the sunny blond hair, soaked her skirt, and then dripped to the ground under her feet...

It's just that the brilliant blonde hair has been suppressed by the deep black clouds at this moment, becoming dim and dull.
