Chapter 33: 【Ewha with rain】

"How can you mix with that fairy!!"
Nicole immediately scolded him as soon as he got into the carriage.
Roddy smiled bitterly: "I didn't provoke her, she came to provoke me!"
Nicole showed an expression of disbelief on her face and sneered: "She? How many ministers does Jojo have in the emperor, and how many people do not look good to her. Even the emperor cannot get her favor. She will actively provoke her. you?"
Roddy was angry and couldn't help but say: "She is not me! Miss Nicole! She is your brother! You should ask your brother!!"
"what?"
"Your brother, it seems to have known her a long time ago... and... Hey!"
Nicole's face changed slightly, and she immediately began to think.
Dorset and Jojo?
How come I have never heard of it? The original guards beside Dorset had never told himself! Those two guys dare to hide such an important thing from themselves! It seems that I drove them back to the army, and I really did it right!
After taking a deep breath, Nicole said bitterly: "You must not talk about this! After going home, I will punish you... punish you... what to punish you, I haven't thought about it yet!"
Roddy curled his lips: "Just fine, it's not that I didn't get fined anyway!"
Nicole glared at Roddy.
Roddy sighed and muttered to himself in a low voice: "A good girl, with a gentle appearance in front of people, why do you make yourself so fierce in private..."
"What are you talking about!" Nicole's ears pointed, and he heard it immediately.
Roddy hurriedly shut up, not daring to say anything, slandering all the way.
The two stopped talking all the way, and returned home in silence.
After getting off the carriage, Nicole didn't say anything, and walked inside. Roddy couldn't get her instructions, so he could only follow behind in a muffled voice. Unconsciously, he followed Nicole to the front of the quiet building.
This is the restricted area of ​​the family, no servants are coming. Nicole didn't speak yet, but walked in first. Roddy hesitated for a moment and followed behind.
I thought that after entering the door, Nicole would explode in anger. Who would have thought that after entering the door, Nicole simply found a chair and sat down.
"Sit down, too." Nicole's voice was very soft and seemed to be depressed.
"You must think I'm fierce to you, right?" Nicole finally spoke when he saw Roddy sitting down.
"Isn't it?" Roddy said coldly: "Since I came here, I have been at your mercy! You made me a ridiculous ear! You lied to me for a serious illness! You made me pretend to be yours Brother! I will do what you ask me to do!"
"But I also gave you a chance. Didn't you think about it? As long as you complete this task of mine, I will arrange a good way out for you in the future. Your strength is already good, and I can arrange for you in the future. Enter the army. You know, with our family's power, you will develop well after entering the army... This is better than being a civilian warrior and staying in the imperial capital to do nothing, right? Your strength though Not bad, but there are many people who are better than you in the imperial capital. Most of them are not the same every day? Fortunately, enter the army and become a small officer or become a guard at a noble house. Unfortunately, you are a thug ...Do you know?" Nicole frowned.
"But I don't like this now!" Roddy simply said: "I know who I am. I am a civilian. But I am a person, not a tool! I like being myself! I like being Roddy, not Your brother! I don't like being a noble! I hate nobles!"
Roddy didn't notice. When he said the words "I hate nobles", Nicole's body was shocked.
Roddy continued: "When I was in the academy, everyone around me respected me. They were not a nobleman and neither were I, but they respected me because I was better than them, my swordsmanship was better than them, and my studies were better than them. Strong, although I look ugly, I don’t feel inferior! But now here, I feel uncomfortable."
Unexpectedly, Nicole didn't get angry, just lowered her head and thought for a moment, then sighed quietly. Her brows wrinkled slightly, and the expression on her face was not as angry as usual, but...weak.
"I'm a girl..." Nicole said softly, "I'm only two years older than you. I'm less than two years older than you. Generally, in a family like ours, girls of my age are all carefree. Life. Every day I chat with a few good friends, read books, learn some music, flowers, or other things. The days should be full of happiness. In fact, a few years ago, when I was a little younger, my days Very happy indeed..."
"But my father died later. And I was born in this family, the imperial'tulip family'... I can't help it. The glory of the family cannot be destroyed, but my brother... He just couldn't understand this. Forced to put down my book, I like the piano. I can no longer chat leisurely with my friends. I force myself to bear the things I don’t like... I have become the manager of the family. Annoying things...the father’s subordinates, they are all looking at me, I know, they are all looking at the tulip flag, the prestige of the family can’t collapse! I don’t like this either, like you, I like to be Miss Nicole, don’t like to be Nicole’s butler, Nicole’s parent!"
While talking, Nicole's eyes were red, and there was an uncomfortable expression on her face.
Roddy seemed to be grabbed by the invisible big hand in his heart, and immediately remembered the scene he saw in the stable that night. The Nicole in front of me has removed her usual mask. The girl in front of me is a weak, helpless girl, just like the girl who held her father’s horse in the stable that night and cried. You will cry, you will be sad, you will feel uncomfortable, you will also need help and support... and even love.
Nicole sighed, slowly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said faintly: "Sometimes, I even thought of marrying myself out. Maybe I can find a powerful family and marry me out. Through this This is a political marriage, and find a powerful foreign aid to help continue to support the family. But..."
The tears that had just been wiped came out again, and Nicole's voice sounded extremely weak: "But I really can't do it...I..."
Roddy sighed, stood up slowly, and walked over. He stood beside Nicole and said softly: "These are not what you should be responsible for, your brother!"
"He... I really hate him a lot of times. He can't understand the burden of the family. But I promised my father that I must not let the tulip banner fall... But... But I am a girl after all... …"
Nicole finally couldn't help crying. Seeing the girl sobbing, Roddy felt an indescribable tenderness. He slowly stretched out his hand and gently stroked mo Nicole’s hair, hoping to Ease the sadness in the girl's heart.
Nicole softened and leaned his head lightly on Roddy's chest, but she cried harder.
In this secluded environment, the girl seemed to finally find a way to rely on, and all the grievances that had been buried in her body and mind for a long time broke out...
Roddy Wenxiang Nephrite was in his arms, and a strange feeling rose in his heart. The hand that had been gently stroking Nicole's hair couldn't help but slipped slowly on her back.
He knelt down gently, and slowly supported Nicole's shoulders with his hands. I only felt that the start was smooth and soft, but I remembered that Nicole was still wearing the strapless dress at night.
Under the mood swings at this time, Nicole didn't care what was wrong with Roddy's movements, only felt that the person in front of him felt endlessly safe and reliable.
Looking at the pretty face in front of him, there are still some tears on his face, like pear blossoms with rain, especially delicate and moving. Looking at the soft lips that were only close at hand, Roddy could no longer control the beautiful thoughts in his heart, and couldn't help but leaned forward...
