After she finished her roasted milk, Lorsis put down his coffee and drew cards with her.

This time it was Lorsis who played the Z card first.

There was a loud thunder in the sky. She paused and accidentally knocked over three or four cards with her fingers.

Lorsis raised his hand and rubbed her head, "Are you afraid of thunder?"

Aihefuya looked in his direction based on her feeling, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, "Hmm."

The thunder on land is much more terrifying than the thunder on the seabed, and it feels like it is right above your head.

There is a lot of moisture in the air. It must be raining.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Ahefuya was stunned for a moment, she lowered her eyes to touch the fallen wooden sign, but touched his fingers.

She raised her finger.

Lorsis took her hand and placed it on the last fallen wooden sign. "I didn't peek at your card."

Just looking at her.

A faint smile appeared on the corner of Ahefuya's lips, and she lifted the wooden sign, "Yes."

Looking at her smile, Lorsis couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips.

I heard from the maid that she had been sitting quietly these past few days and showed little emotion.

After all the cards were dealt, it was Aihefuya who lost again.

Lorsis took the rose and moved closer, pinning another one on the other side of her hair. "Ahefuya, your luck doesn't seem to be very good."

"But it would seem good if all the Dorota roses were on your head."

"It can also be a reward, a reward for having the opportunity to wear them on the heads of beautiful girls."

Ahefuya held the two wooden signs in her hands, pursed her lips, and asked, "Lorsis, may I ask how old you are?"

"Twenty-six, that's not presumptuous."

"How many wives or lovers have you had?"

"I have never had a wife or a lover, Ahefuya, why do you suddenly want to ask this?" Lorsis stepped back a little and looked at her expression.

Her expression was still calm, but she lacked the joy she had when playing cards.

"I'm just a little surprised that the fierce Duke spoke so nicely to girls. I thought he must have coaxed many girls with sweet words, but I didn't expect you didn't."

Ahefuya lowered her eyes and suppressed the strange emotions that suddenly emerged in her heart.

"He's a vicious monster, do you believe it?" Even if the words sound nice, it depends on who you are talking to.

"I don't quite believe it. Lorses is very gentlemanly in front of me." He may be ugly, but it does not affect his gentlemanliness and gentleness in front of her.

He would carve wooden cards and play with her, and she was slow in determining the size of the cards and remembering them, as if no important person would play this patience-demanding game with a blind person.

At least, her father, the Grand Marshal of the Mermaid Tribe, wouldn't.

Being blind meant that she had no chance of entering the royal family. Even if she was beautiful, her father would despise her and say that she was just a pretty shell.

"I'm honored to receive your recognition." Lorsis touched the wooden card in her palm with his fingers and used a little force to remind her, "It's time to shuffle the cards now."

Akhfeya let go.

In the third game, she finally won.

Lorsis took her hand and put it into the flower tube, "Pick one."

Ahefuya ran her fingers over the petals and picked one at random.

Lorsis half-knelt in front of her, lowered his head and pulled her left hand so that her hand could fall on his head, "Come on."

Ahephia paused, tightened her grip on Dorota's rose, and after a long moment her fingers slowly brushed across his head.

His hair was not prickly and felt comfortable to the touch. At this distance, his scent was very close.

She regretted her hasty decision.
