MTL - The Heroine Forced Me To Fall In Love with Money-Chapter 91
Ria didn't know how long she waited in the bathroom.
The whole body...is a dead silence.
Leia closed her eyes, put her hands on her chest, held her breath gently, and waited intently for the marshal to call her name.
One second passed, two seconds passed, one minute, two minutes…
The speed of time seems to be gradually slowing down at this moment.
Just when Laiya was about to lose it, Jiang Zhinan's voice finally sounded outside the door.
She said, "Leia, come out, it's all right."
Lia's eyes suddenly turned red, and her two legs that were still shaking suddenly gained strength. She pushed open the door and walked quickly to the bedside, looking at her worriedly. Jiang Zhinan's direction.
She saw that the marshal was still sitting on the bed in the same posture as before, his body was very straight, and his expression was the same as before.
But her breathing was more rapid than before, and her face was a touch of crimson.
There is even a subtle floral fragrance around.
"Marshal!" Leia climbed on tiptoe and knelt beside the bed with her two legs supported, her little head gently pressed against Jiang Zhinan's forehead, her voice was very low He asked her gently, "Are you alright?"
The little girl was obviously frightened, her big eyes were full of tears, her body was shaking slightly, and her two little hands felt cold.
The floral fragrance comes from the marshal.
The moment she got into Jiang Zhinan's arms, Laiya suddenly realized this matter, and a question suddenly appeared in her heart.
But she didn't say anything, didn't ask anything, just stayed in Jiang Zhinan's arms so quietly, until Jiang Zhinan's breathing gradually calmed down, until the coldness on her body slowly faded away , the heartbeat returned to normal.
"Does the Marshal want to wash his feet?" She raised her head, blinked her big eyes lightly, and looked at Jiang Zhinan's face with anticipation, "Laiya wants to wash the feet of the Marshal."
Jiang Zhinan was stunned for a moment when she saw it, and then reflexively touched her head, and said in a hoarse voice, "Wash."
"Okay." Leia nodded, jumped out of her arms very obediently, and took the underground water basin to change the water again.
Immediately afterward, he supported Jiang Zhinan's feet with his two small hands, and slowly put it into the water basin like he was holding some sacred object.
A little itchy.
Jiang Zhinan was itching, but she was embarrassed to stop attacking the child's self-confidence, so she could only close her eyes and grit her teeth.
"Marshal?" Laiya noticed her strangeness, raised her head and asked a little disappointed, "Is it uncomfortable for Laiya to wash?"
"No." Jiang Zhinan shook his head and forced a smile to comfort her, "It's quite comfortable."
"That's good!" Leia laughed, and lowered her head to wash with more effort.
Jiang Zhinan: “…”
The feet became more itchy, Jiang Zhinan couldn't help but want to laugh, so he called the system in his heart, asking her to put some small stories for herself to distract her attention.
"Please leave a message if you have anything." The system seems to be absent at the moment, and a mechanical voice came from there, asking her to leave a message after the beep.
This is the first time Jiang Zhinan encountered such a function, and he didn't know how to use it, so he could only try to ask: "Can you tell me a short story?"
"Okay." The mechanical voice responded, "Received the request, now start playing the stories of the hosts randomly."
The host's story sounded very novel. Jiang Zhinan politely thanked it and sat up straight to listen.
A voice sounded in her mind, and began to tell her vividly: "It was a dark and windy night for a month, and the young employee of **** company died suddenly."
A Horror Story?
Jiang Zhinan swallowed.
"The little employee worked hard and never complained during her lifetime. She worked overtime almost every day until late at night, working hard to earn money to support her family." The voice continued to chant, "However, God's will is tricky, no matter how hard she tries, she is still not violent. Rich, always at the bottom of the society, suffered hardships and hardships…”
The more she said it, the more wrong it became. Jiang Zhinan listened to it for a long time, and suddenly realized that the voice was actually telling her story.
Loneliness, loneliness, poverty, how miserable it is.
Jiang Zhinan didn't want to laugh anymore, wanted to cry after listening to it for a long time.
The voice ignored her and continued to speak until the moment she died, the system finally came back.
"I'm so miserable." Jiang Zhinan cried and chirped with the system in his mind, and couldn't be sad, "I just realized that I was so pitiful before."
"Don't cry, don't cry!" The system comforted her and quickly turned off the function, "It won't be miserable when you go back."
"Really?" Jiang Zhinan asked pitifully.
"Really!" The system nodded, "I promise you."
"That's good." Jiang Zhinan replied, feeling much more at ease and didn't want to cry anymore.
She had never seen the marshal show this expression before, and the whole person stopped immediately, the water basin in her hand was not grasped, and it thudded to the ground.
There was also a lot of splashes on my body, and my pants were wet.
"Are you alright?!" Jiang Zhinan was startled, and hurriedly leaned over to wipe her, and then arranged for Laiya to wash in her bathroom.
"Okay." Leia blushed, nodded and went into the bathroom apologetically.
After a while, there was the sound of water running inside.
Jiang Zhinan had lost a lot of physical strength due to the combined heat, and now he heard a particularly hypnotic sound of water, and soon became sleepy, before Laiya came out, he fell asleep on the bed past.
The shower also took a quick shower, and in the end it was just a rough wipe and then came out quickly.
Fortunately, the marshal just fell asleep.
Leia gently dimmed the light, and slowly came to the bed on tiptoe to observe Jiang Zhinan's sleeping face with the starlight outside the window.
No matter how many times I watch it, she still looks so good, the whole person seems to be glowing, and nothing can cover her light.
Beauty is like a work of art, even a slight touch is a sin.
But... so what?
Laiya stood beside the bed and blinked, finally holding her breath and gently climbed onto the bed, came to Jiang Zhinan and lay down, her face very close to her.
Two small hands grabbed forward unconsciously, moving gently, carefully touching Jiang Zhinan's fingertips, and then holding them tightly.
"Marshal." She said softly, her eyes shining brightly under the starlight, "It's good to have you, Leia likes you."
"More than the kind of love that likes Dailin, likes the children in school, likes birds and rabbits."
"Hmm..." Jiang Zhinan murmured in the dream, leaning forward slightly, the hair on his temples fell down on the tip of his nose.
Leia stretched out a small hand to gently tidy up those hair strands, and after a while, leaned over and kissed Jiang Zhinan's forehead lightly.
"Good night Marshal." She said, smiling very happily.
…
The next day was still a working day, and Leia and Delin had to go to school.
However, Jiang Zhinan didn't have the energy to follow. Although she had taken the medicine, the tiredness on her body still did not dissipate. Today, she just wanted to stay in bed.
Leiya brought a bowl of porridge to her bedside before leaving, and asked her to drink it softly.
"Okay." Jiang Zhinan responded, raised his hand and touched her hair.
Dai Lin, who was beside her, saw it, and came over to help Jiang Zhinan tuck the quilt, and exchanged a touch like Laiya.
The two children were content and went to school happily.
Jiang Zhinan sat up and finished the bowl of porridge, then lay back again and chatted with the system in his mind.
After chatting for a while, the terminal placed by the pillow suddenly rang.
Jiang Zhinan picked it up and looked at it, and saw a message above reminding her that something had happened over there, and she would go back to the barracks in a few days.
Although Jiang Zhinan came here mainly to complete the task, the safety of the empire is also very important. As long as she stays in this body for a day, she will still stand up for anything the empire needs.
So Jiang Zhinan returned to a "good" past.
I started thinking about what to say to my kids.
In the past, when the original owner was still there, he often did not go home again and again, and stayed in the military camp every day for several months at a time.
However, the relationship between the original owner and the children was not that good, so it didn't matter.
But it's different now, these two children are so dependent on her now, if she suddenly leaves, what will happen.
Especially Lai Ya, after so many years of low self-esteem, she finally became stronger and more confident. Jiang Zhinan was afraid that she would return to the starting point after she left.
He was a little confused, Jiang Zhinan hesitated for a day, and finally decided to try her first.
Maybe it is a very proud thing to wash the family's feet. After dinner, Laiya quickly finished her homework, and then went to make hot water and brought a basin to wash Jiang Zhinan.
Jiang Zhinan happened to have something to ask, so he didn't refuse, and still stuck out his feet and put them in the water basin.
Leia lowered her head and lifted the water with her small hands, with a very obvious smile on her face.
Jiang Zhinan stared at her for a while, then suddenly called out her name.
She said, "Leia, may I ask you something?"
"Okay!" Leia responded, obediently raising her head to look at her.
"If, I mean if." Jiang Zhinan said, "If one day I have to leave because of something, it may take a long time to come back, what will Laiya do?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Leia was stunned.
Jiang Zhinan looked at her little head and felt a little nervous.
But what she said was like water that was poured out, and it was unrealistic to take it back. Jiang Zhinan simply said nothing and waited silently for her answer.
Time passed down, and after an unknown amount of time, Leia finally opened her mouth again.
"Leia doesn't know." She said, her voice trembling slightly, "Leia never thought about this before, and didn't have any real feelings about the Marshal's departure. ."
"And now I don't dare to think about it, I don't dare to think about what I will do after the marshal leaves." She shook her head, and the movements of her hands slowed down a lot, "But since the marshal asked ,That…"
"Then I can only tell the marshal that I will wait for your return at home." She said, raising her head again, her big eyes full of determination, "Like when I was there last night Wait for the marshal in the bathroom, wait quietly and honestly, wait for the marshal to come back, and wait for you to call my name."
"Leia is no longer the Leia it used to be, and I won't cause you any trouble."
