Chapter 631: Blood Clan Loyal Butler vs. Godly Lady 60
After Chris returned to the vampire clan, when he wanted to find the baby girl again, the mother and daughter were no longer there.
System: "Xi'er was Chris's savior, but Chris later failed to recognize her identity. Instead, he allowed her to be sucked by Andrew and Lu Zewen, indirectly killing her."
Chris, who was reborn, knew the truth, so he planned to protect the original owner from the beginning, but he didn't know that the original owner had passed away long ago.
Quan Jiu vaguely knew why there were four targets for this mission.
In the original plot, the person who left the obsession was not only the original owner, but also Chris.
"As long as I eliminate Chris's obsession, will his mission be completed?" Quan Jiu had a guess in his heart.
System: “You can try.”
With the help of the flashlight, Quan Jiu looked at Chris's coat pocket.
"Cold?" Chris misunderstood her meaning.
Quan Jiu looked him straight in the eyes: "Can I see that necklace?"
Chris's expression was slightly stiff, and his body was barely visibly still.
When Xier left the vampire clan, the two had a big fight, so after they met again, they all tacitly agreed not to mention their childhood past.
This necklace is the most important thing.
He took out the necklace with stiff limbs. The silver chain and ruby reflected bright silver light under the light of the flashlight, shining brightly.
Quan Jiu suddenly asked pointedly, "Why do you carry it with you?"
Chris's eyebrows drooped.
When she returned the necklace just now, she avoided talking about the past, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
But unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, she suddenly figured something out and actually took the initiative to bring up this topic.
It was still a topic he didn't want to answer.
Seeing that he remained silent, Quan Jiu took the ruby necklace from his hand:
"After all these years, the gem's luster remains intact. Chris, you've taken good care of it."
Is it because of guilt?
Faced with her repeated advances, Chris's indifferent expression finally cracked. The man looked at her holding the necklace, and deep dark waves flowed through his black eyes:
"Sir, I'm sorry."
This is an apology that is fifteen years late.
Quan Jiu lowered his head and played with the necklace: "If apologies are useful, what do we need the police for?"
Chris pursed his lips slightly, and the lines of his face were visibly tense.
She still refused to forgive him.
The man's eyelashes trembled slightly, and the light in his eyes dimmed a lot.
"Put it on me."
Quan Jiu suddenly put the necklace on her left wrist. The woman's wrist was originally slender and fair, and with the gorgeous red, her skin looked as white as snow.
Chris looked up suddenly, his eyes showing surprise.
Put it on her...
Quan Jiu curled his lips slightly and raised his arm: "What are you standing there for?"
Chris's thin lips trembled, but he didn't dare ask her what she meant. He instinctively reached out and wrapped the necklace around her wrist three times, then gently buckled it.
Fifteen years later, the ruby necklace was finally returned to its original owner.
The girl's arms were snow-white and slender, having never done heavy work. Their hands were more delicate than those of many hand models, and with the rubies, the two complemented each other perfectly.
Quan Jiu raised his hands in the air, looking at the necklace that had been reduced to a bracelet with satisfaction:
"This won't happen again."
Chris's lips curled into a smile.
………
On the way back to the ward, Quan Jiu stared at the favorability value that had risen to 90 points, and couldn't help but whisper to the system:
"It seems Chris really cares about the original owner. I accepted an apology on his behalf, and his favorability score is almost full."
It is estimated that killing the original owner became a knot in Chris's heart. She forgave him on behalf of the original owner, and his knot was finally untied.
The system listened to her in silence, looking as if it wanted to say something but hesitated.
Although it is just a ruler, it also has its own judgment.
Why did it always feel that the person Chris really wanted to apologize to was her, not the original owner, and that the thing he was really sorry for was kicking her out of the manor, not indirectly killing the original owner...
A bunch of thoughts flashed through the system's mind, but looking at Quan Jiu who was completely unaware and looked excited, it decisively chose to play dumb.
"You are the host, whatever you say is what happens."
Before coming to work, 001 personally gave it special training, and the first item in the training was -
Don't argue with the host, whatever she says is what she means.
Quan Jiu fiddled with the ruby on his wrist, opened the door to the ward and walked in:
"It's a pity that it's still ten points short. It would be better if it was full right away..."
system:"………"
It had never seen such a greedy host.
Everyone else was staring at their hard-earned favorability happily, but she was the only one who looked unsatisfied and only wanted to take shortcuts.
When Quan Jiu returned, Lu Zhiyao was not in the house, and the sound of water splashing came from the bathroom.
She had just sat down and taken a sip of water when the bathroom door clicked open.
The man had just showered, a towel wrapped around his waist. His black hair was wet and stuck to his forehead. Drops of water ran across his high brow bones and slid into his deep eyes...
As soon as Lu Zhiyao came out, he caught a glimpse of the ruby necklace on her wrist. She seldom wore jewelry on weekdays, and the things she wore and used were all prepared by people he had sent. He noticed the sudden appearance of an unfamiliar necklace at a glance.
"Where are you from?"
He wiped his slightly damp hair with a white towel and walked towards Quan Jiu.
Quan Jiu curled up on the sofa, lying on his side with his legs together:
"Do you remember the necklace Chris gave me when I was little?"
As soon as she reminded him, Lu Zhiyao immediately remembered.
He was different from other children from the moment he was born. From the moment he was born, he remembered everything that happened around him clearly.
Especially things about her.
The first time he saw her in her cradle, a crazy thought clamored in his mind: I must not let her leave.
This idea came out of nowhere. He was just a baby at the time and couldn't understand the meaning of it. He just instinctively felt that she had a scent he liked, so he wanted to stick to her all the time.
"Remember."
Of course he remembered the necklace.
Because she likes it very much.
After understanding the origin of the necklace, Lu Zhiyao's eyes underwent some subtle changes.
Men understand men best.
What does it mean that a man kept a necklace returned by a woman for fifteen years?
"You like it?"
He sat down beside Quan Jiu calmly, his eyes darkening.
Quan Jiu really likes it: "This kind of design is rare."
Lu Zhiyao narrowed his eyes slightly, and said calmly: "Yeah."
No emotion could be heard.
"It's time to take a shower." He reminded.
Quan Jiu stared at the bracelet and hesitated for a moment. Taking it off every day after bathing would undoubtedly be a hassle, but if he didn't take it off, the bracelet's lifespan would be greatly shortened...
"If you think it's troublesome, don't pick it." Lu Zhiyao made the decision for her.
Quan Jiu thought about it and it made sense, so he went into the bathroom wearing the bracelet. When he turned around, he saw a man with a bath towel tied around his waist following him in.
