Chapter 83
Chapter 83
Since all the window glass in Zals' room was gone, and there was no privacy at all, Elvins borrowed Hannah's office and went inside with the pendant to continue trying to take out the soul.Munn helped him clean up the messy documents on the desktop, and then asked if he needed to prepare anything else. Elvins shook his head and said no, and politely invited him out.
Edwin said: "He didn't need any outside help. Repairing things was always his forte."
"You make it sound like he works in a furniture repair shop." Zars said helplessly.
Amused by him, Edwin explained: "Almost, Aiwen's ability is 'recovery', although it has no effect on living things, but he likes to make some small props, and this ability has helped a lot .”
As for whether the soul is a living body, he has the answer in his heart, but he intentionally misled Zars not to think about it, but led the topic to another direction: "Do you have time at night?"
"Huh?" Zars didn't know why, and subconsciously said, "Yes, what's the matter?"
"You are about to carry out the first task independently," Edwin was referring to the real culprit of the Xuesting Fen case that the Association pushed them to investigate. They had agreed to let Zals try it himself, and now Grant's business has come to an end, and it's time to get ready to start. "As the boss and... I should treat you to a delicious meal and encourage my right-hand man."
He didn't speak fast, and he paused deliberately in the middle, omitting a suspicious word. Although he didn't make a sound, his mouth was still there. Zals, who was standing opposite him, could recognize what he wanted to say, and his face immediately turned red. up.
"Okay, then... let's go then." Zars stammered.
Edwin raised the corners of his mouth and smiled, then turned and told Munn to help make a reservation.
Zals followed him, feeling a little hot, so he turned to look at the closed door of Hannah's office, thinking that he hadn't seen the owner of the room today, so he asked casually, "Where did Hannah go?"
Mu En was looking up the phone number of the restaurant on the Internet, and said without raising her head, "She went shopping and came back at night."
The word shopping sounds incompatible with Hannah, and Zals was taken aback, wondering, "Why did she suddenly want to go shopping?"
If Mun is still a puppet who is willing to communicate with the outside world, then Hannah is a complete squat at home. Zars has known her for so long, and only saw her go out once. The reason for that time seems to be... …
"Did she send a report to the association before?" Edwin said what he wanted to say first.
Mu En nodded: "It seems that I made friends there, so I made an appointment to go shopping today."
It's a little hard to imagine, but it's certainly a good thing.Zals and Edwin looked at each other and didn't say anything, but they both saw smiles in each other's eyes.
"The next time she wants to go shopping, give her more shopping funds." Edwin said, "Girls will probably want to buy something they like when they go out to play."
Maybe it's clothes, bags or delicious food, he doesn't know what Hannah likes, but it's okay to give money—if she needs it.
"Okay." Mu En didn't ask him why he suddenly became so humane. He tapped his phone a few times to confirm the information, and then said, "I've already booked a seat online, seven o'clock in the afternoon."
Edwin, who wanted to catch up on sleep, nodded and went back to his room. Before leaving, he said thank you.Mu En stood there in a daze for several seconds before recovering, hesitantly asked Zals who was still waiting for him: "...Did the boss just say thank you to me?"
Zales said otherwise, so he said: "This is the first time he said thank you to me."
Zars was also taken aback, not knowing what to say.
Edwin's recent changes are indeed great. For example, he just said that he would give Hannah a shopping fund, and he said thank you to Muen. He probably wouldn't do these things before, and Muun's reaction is the best proof.
Can he have the cheek to think it's because of him?
Seeing that he didn't answer, Mu En continued to be shocked, and began to attribute the reason to himself: "Who did he invite to dinner at night, is it so important?"
"..." Zales said, "It should be eaten with me."
Mun's shocked eyes shifted to him, Zars didn't explain anything, waved his hands and ran away.
He ran upstairs in three steps at a time, pushed open the half-hidden door at the end of the corridor, and entered Edwin's room.
The owner of the room took off his coat and leaned on the bed wearing only a shirt. When he saw him enter the door, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Don't knock on the door anymore?"
Zars was stunned for a moment, and said awkwardly, "I thought you left the door for me on purpose."
Edwin smiled, nodded and said, "It's indeed for you. It's very conscious, and it's a good thing."
When Zales walked to the bedside, he said again: "In the future, you don't need to knock when you come in, as long as it's only you."
Zars paused when he took off his coat, and looked down at him.
Edwin was only wearing the satin shirt under the coat just now, and leaned casually on the head of the bed, not at all worried that the shirt would be crumpled.Seeing Zars looking down at himself, he raised his arm to pull him over, his cool fingertips slipped from the soft sweater to Zars's warm palm, and then hooked his fingers.
"Give you the right to supervise me at any time," he whispered, "don't want it?"
Zals couldn't tell if he didn't want it, but felt that the words were too intimate, so he was silent for a moment, and held Edwin's hand instead.
"Supervise you for what?"
"Work, life, anything is fine," Edwin said intentionally, "as long as you don't ask me to get up at six in the morning."
Zals couldn't hold back and laughed.
He actually wanted to talk to the other party about other things, but Edwin took him away when he entered the door. Only then did he remember his original intention: "Muen was very touched just now, saying that this is the first time you said 'thank you' to him .”
Edwin raised his eyebrows: "Really?"
"He shouldn't remember wrongly, because it looks like he's about to cry." Zales said with a smile.
Mun won't remember this kind of thing wrongly, and it's not like Edwin really doesn't remember it. Now that he can feel the relaxed and happy mood of the other party, then maybe... his thoughts are true.
He said to Edwin, "Come and read what I'm thinking, and give me an answer."
Edwin didn't read it, but he already knew what he wanted to say, and nodded briskly.
Zals regards everyone at 179 Rock Hill Street as his family and companions. As his boyfriend, Edwin believes that his attitude should also change with him.
For him in the past, Munn and Hannah were just puppets driven by his orders, but these days, Edwin has also witnessed their emotional changes that are no different from living people, and they do not completely follow his orders. The behavioral trajectory of the thoughts running.In the past, he might think that the spell was wrong, but now, he is willing to try to get along with them normally.
After all, he will stay here for a long time, and Mun and Hannah will continue to accompany them as indispensable members of No. 179. Even if he doesn't have as much emotion as Zales, he wants to try to do so.
At [-]:[-] p.m., Zales parked his car in the restaurant's parking lot, and walked into the restaurant entrance with Edwin who got off the car first but didn't go in early.
The doorman nodded politely at them, and led them into the reserved room, and the waiter waiting in the room took off their coats and hung them up, and then handed them the menu.
The waiter took a few steps back to wait after delivering the menu, Edwin flipped through it, saw Zals frowning from the corner of his eye, couldn't help smiling, and shook the menu in his hand: "Shall I order? "
Zales immediately said with relief: "You come."
It’s not that he’s afraid to order because he thinks it’s too expensive. He really can’t read the text on the menu. He wonders if it’s French, but he can’t ask and there are no pictures to read. After reading a few pages, he feels that he might need to learn more. foreign language.He watched Edwin raise his hand to signal the waiter to come over, and then ordered in a foreign language he didn't understand, his eyes couldn't help wandering, and fell on Edwin's delicate tie clip.
Because it was a restaurant that required formal attire for dining, they all wore more formal clothes, especially Edwin, with a three-piece upper body, exquisite and elegant like an aristocrat who just got off a banquet.The tie clip was put on by him before he went out. It was made of platinum and looked a bit like the "death star". It was very delicate.But what impressed him even more than the tie clip itself was the kiss that Edwin gave him as he tied his tie after he put it on.
After finishing ordering in a few words, Edwin looked up at him: "What's wrong?"
The waiter had left with the menu tactfully, and there were only the two of them left. Zars was relieved from the atmosphere that he was the only one who couldn't understand the conversation, and explained a little awkwardly: "I can't read the menu."
Edwin nodded, and he didn't look too emotional: "I asked Muen to book the best restaurant in the city. I didn't expect them to be so good that they didn't even have bilingual menus."
Troubled Frenchie.
Zals didn't think about how Edwin could speak French or any other language, because in his opinion, it would be strange if the other party couldn't speak it.Worried that he was uncomfortable, Edwin was quietly reading his thoughts, caught him thinking about it, and shook his head and laughed.
"It's not an abnormal method, I have learned it before." He explained, "I traveled a few places at that time, and I can speak a few languages with a high coverage of human society, and I decided to stay here later."
Zales nodded, and said, "Actually, I haven't eaten much French food... Is this French food?"
"Yes."
"If I eat whatever I want, I won't embarrass you, right?"
Edwin couldn't help laughing.
"Even if you asked for a spoon to eat the whole thing, I don't think they would say anything rude."
Of course, he can't control what other people think behind their backs. As long as he has the basic etiquette of keeping his mouth shut and talking nonsense, he doesn't think Zals will care.
I have to educate Mun when I go back, and next time at least find a restaurant where Zals can eat with peace of mind.thought Edwin.
