The lone wolf of Freyrdrand

Practice before marriage

The maid brewed three cups of tea, came over and put them on the table: “Madam, master, Miss Fiona, today’s tea is dragon flower tea from the east, which is rather bitter. I put sugar cubes here.”

“Thank you.” Evelyn smiled at the maid, “You step back.”

After the maid closed the door, Rorschach picked up the teacup and looked at Fiona who was sitting opposite him.

Fiona was wearing a pure white lace dress.

Strapless, low-cut, the girl’s delicate swan neck, collarbone and a little cleavage are all exposed, and the waist is bound by the waist. Fiona’s waist is very thin, and the skirt extends down to just cover the knees. Her tight, long and straight legs were covered in white stockings, and a pair of beautiful silver-white shoes covered her feet.

Although Fiona was dressed up beautifully, it was difficult to associate her with this fluffy dress once she saw her heroic short hair.

Rorschach looked at Fiona’s unusual outfit, picked up the teacup and drank.

Luo Xia didn’t add sugar, he didn’t need to eat, and he didn’t have a sense of taste. He didn’t feel anything when he ate it. The bitter tea was nothing special to him. Drinking tea now is just acting.

Section 423

“Let’s drink tea.” Eve smiled lightly. Unlike Rorschach, she kept using small tweezers to put sugar cubes into the teacup until the tea was almost full.

Fiona picked up the teacup in silence, and after taking a sip, her face trembled.

“Do you want some sugar?” Evelyn asked.

“No need.” Fiona glanced at Rorschach and drank the contents of the cup. Although her face was still expressionless, it could be seen that she was trying her best to keep her eyebrows from trembling.

“Competitiveness…” Rorschach and Evelyn thought at the same time.

Demons are good at reading people’s hearts, and Fiona doesn’t have any capital, she sits here as if naked, and any emotions and thoughts of her are captured by the two demons.

Fiona is really a girl who wants to win in every way. Seeing that Rorschach doesn’t put sugar, she doesn’t want to lose to him, so she suppressed the bitterness and drank the tea.

Rorschach picked up the teapot and poured another cup for Fiona with a smile.

Fiona shrank her fingers,Although it was only a small movement, it was also seen by the two demons that she didn’t want to drink tea anymore.

Rorschach smiled and pushed the teacup in front of Fiona, and put a cube of sugar in it: “You have to try more flavors when drinking tea. If you don’t like sugar, it’s okay to put a cube.”

Fiona seemed to be slightly relieved, and her eyes on Rorschach softened a little.

Evelyn was full of smiles. The ability of demons to manipulate people’s hearts is innate. Rorschach’s just a few actions made Fiona’s attitude towards him better. Playing in the palm of your hand.

“I’m here for pre-marital practice.” Fiona took another sip of tea, and then explained her purpose of coming, “This is what the Laurent family asked of me.”

“Practice before marriage…” Of course Luo Xia knew what it meant.

Demacia is a fairly conservative country. Basically, an engagement between a man and a woman is equivalent to getting married. It is very difficult to cancel the marriage contract. Once it is canceled, it will be a shame to both families, let alone the nobles.

Because engagement is basically no different from marriage, many families of women will send their daughters directly to the man’s home before the official wedding, so as to get familiar with the man’s family and career, and prepare for becoming a good wife in the future [source; group]: 9? 8; 0; 2? . 0′. 5,,8″5.;6 Bei, this process is called pre-marital practice.

Fiona resisted the engagement so strongly before, but she came here honestly after losing the duel, and she is also a trustworthy person.

But it’s one thing to keep one’s word, but it’s another thing to admit defeat in one’s heart.

Rorschach could see how unwilling Fiona felt.

But this fell into Rorschach’s hands. The more unwilling Fiona was, the easier it would be for him to manipulate her.

Evelyn smiled and sat beside Fiona: “Since you are here to cultivate before marriage, you don’t have to be so restrained. We will be a family from now on, and you can treat this place as your own home.”

Fiona nodded lukewarmly, and drank tea sullenly.

Evelyn turned her beautiful eyes, and said, “I suddenly remembered that today I have to go to enjoy the flowers with some ladies, Robert, I will trouble you and Fiona to look after the house.”

“Okay, mother.” Rorschach knew that Evelyn wanted Fiona to be alone with her.

Fiona’s body trembled.

After Evelyn left, there were only two people left in the room.

Fiona didn’t want to look into Rorschach’s eyes. As a fiancée, if Rorschach did anything to her at this time, she would have nothing to do.

If the news spread that she beat up her fiancé, the Laurent family would really lose face.

But Rorschach didn’t plan to do anything to Fiona. Firstly, he had no interest in women. Secondly, he didn’t want Fiona to really fall in love with him like Lana did.

He needs to keep the relationship between the two at a delicate level, neither making Fiona fall in love with him nor let Fiona alienate him.

“Do you want to do something?” Rorschach asked, “Can you play chess?”

“No.” Fiona refused.

“Then do you want some snacks?”

“Not hungry.”

“Going to ride a horse?”

“No, the skirt I’m wearing.”

Luo Xia spread out his hands: “Did you come to my house to tell me a bunch of nos for your pre-marriage practice?”

Fiona was silent for a while: “How is your injury?”

Fiona was referring to the wound she stabbed on Rorschach’s shoulder during the duel.

Of course Rorschach was not injured. How could an ordinary weapon hurt the demon, but he still touched his shoulder: “Fortunately, the wound is not very deep. I was treated by the Radiance Envoy of the Temple of Light.”

“Hmm…” Fiona agreed and stopped talking.

Luo Xia said helplessly: “I know you are very reluctant to marry me, but do you plan to have a cold war with me for the rest of your life?”

“I can’t force myself to fall in love with you.”

“It’s because you couldn’t accept the result of that duel, right?”

Fiona’s gaze became sharp again: “I’m not someone who can’t afford to lose. Even though you won me in that way, it’s not a fight, but I have accepted my defeat.”

“Lie.” Luo Xia thought in his heart. Fiona was pretending to be free and easy, but she didn’t accept it at all.

But this is exactly what Luo Xia wanted, and it was not in vain for his design in the duel, which was to let Fiona be in the gap between unwillingness to lose herself and disagreement with the result of the duel at the same time, making her entangled and struggling , brooding.

This brooding is the seed that will destroy her in the future.

Luo Xia said: “Since you have accepted it, let’s get along well. Do you want to come and kiss?”

Fiona’s eyes were as cold as murder.

“Forget it, I always feel like you’re going to bite my tongue off.” Luo Xia said with a wry smile, “Then…do you want to go for a walk? Let’s go for a walk in Xiongdu together?”

Fiona sighed. She also knew that it was pointless to have a cold war with Rorschach. They were already a fiancée.

Fiona resigned to her fate and said, “Then let’s go together.”

“Is there any place you want to go?”

“It’s up to you…”

Luo Xia didn’t know where to go, so he just clapped his hands, called the maid who was guarding the door, and asked, “Do you know any interesting places in Xiongdu recently? Miss Fiona and I want to go shopping. ”

“A fun place?” The maid thought for a while. “I don’t know the fun place. I haven’t gone out to play recently… But I’ve heard one scary rumor.”

“A scary rumor?”

“Recently……the males…the males…” The maid swallowed, “There are serial killers. ”
