It can be considered as a reward...
Back to the topic, Lu Mian originally thought that there was no one else in the dark and quiet living room.
This thought remained with him until he was completely separated from the hustle and bustle left by the commercial street.
After returning to normal silence, he moved his ears slightly and heard some very subtle breathing sounds?
Following the sound, I looked carefully for a while before I saw a petite girl with white hair huddled on a sofa under the moonlight.
Because of its size and the advantage of being blocked by the terrain, it is really hard to find it unless you look carefully.
If someone is careless enough, it is possible that they will just sleep on the sofa all night.
Lu Mian shrugged helplessly, took two steps forward, stretched out his hand and gently shook the petite girl's shoulders in an attempt to wake her up.
At the same time, the other party's identity was also revealed:
"Hello, Theresa, Theresa? Theresa, wake up, I'm Shafrin."
That’s right, the person sleeping soundly on the sofa at this moment was Theresa.
Although it is unclear why she did not sleep in her office or bedroom but instead curled up on this small sofa.
But when I thought it was her, everything made sense.
Reasonable, very reasonable.
Finally, after being awakened by Lu Mian's gentle and continuous teasing, Theresa slowly opened her eyes.
The girl's face was tearful, tinged with the laziness brought by the night.
She must have been a little sleepy. She was stunned for a while before she raised her hand to rub her sleepy eyes and said incoherently:
"Well - Lu Mian, you are finally back."
"Is there something important that you want to inform me about? Why don't you tell me on the phone first?" Lu Mian grinned, but finally couldn't help asking the question he wanted to ask.
Theresa, however, was extremely considerate and waved her hand nonchalantly, "Although it is important, it is not something urgent. There is no need to disturb you and Kiana.
"And I'm not that sleepy actually. I'm just a little bored waiting alone..."
Lu Mian didn't believe a word of this. He just responded and turned the topic back to business:
"Theresa, you are really considerate, but let's talk about business first. After that, you can rest, right?"
"Well, it's nothing, actually. I saw that Kiana has made great progress, so I prepared some gifts for her as a reward.
"I think given the relationship between you and Kiana, these gifts should be given by you."
As she said this, Theresa picked up the two gift boxes that had been placed on the other side of the sofa and placed them side by side between the two of them.
There was clearly no ribbon wrapped around the gift box, which directly indicated that the person handing it over could first take a look at what was inside.
Seeing this, Lu Mian, who had already guessed something in his heart, silently reached out and opened the two gift boxes.
As expected, there are two things in it:
A princess dress and a pair of guns.
Chapter 31: Look at the Duck Legs (Five in One)
At Theresa's signal, Lu Mian, who had already vaguely guessed something in his heart, reached out and opened the two gift boxes in front of him that had no ribbons wrapped around them.
The gift inside was exactly what he expected:
A princess dress and a pair of guns.
The princess dress is mainly blue and white. The stitching, wiring and workmanship are extremely sophisticated. It is like a dreamlike work of art, highlighting the delicate emotions hidden in the hand-knitting.
It is so extraordinarily beautiful that it has an even more beautiful name - Winter Princess.
Look at the other pair of guns, orange and white, with words like "May the moonlight protect you, Kiana - Siegfried, Cecilia and Theresa who love you" engraved on the guns.
Its name: Guardian of the Moon Goddess.
If the name of the Winter Princess simply comes from the holly color which is the main tone of the princess dress.
Then naming the dual guns "Guardian of the Moon Goddess" has a certain degree of profound meaning.
Because the name "Kiana" can be directly understood as the goddess of moonlight.
It sounds like a special gift.
And this is exactly the case. These two gifts were prepared by Cecilia in this world for her biological daughter "Kiana", also known as Yulandel.
It's other people's children's stuff.
Lu Mian could actually understand Theresa's decision to send out the Princess of Winter and the Guardian of the Moon Goddess.
After all, it is assumed that Cecilia in this world and the real Kiana have no chance of winning the resurrection match.
Siegfried, the only direct relative, adopted a daughter who looked exactly like the real Kiana and even had the same name.
Who else could she be if not Kiana?
If they had never met, Theresa might still have some hesitation about Kiana, and would not have given away the last thing left by Cecilia so easily.
But the thing is that they have been together as family for quite some time now.
As their affection for each other skyrocketed, they had almost become real family.
In this case, giving away two items would only add to the sadness, so it wouldn't be a big problem.
The reason why Lu Mian thought this matter was unreasonable was that he had a prophetic perspective and knew that the real Kiana, also known as Yulande, still survived after being hit on the head by an aircraft and falling freely from a height of several thousand meters onto the snow-capped mountains.
Super silly goose man, isn’t it amazing?
Knowing that the real Kiana was still alive, he gave away Kiana's name and even the gifts left for her by her biological mother to others.
That's a big problem.
Apart from that, there is no need to blame Siegfried and Theresa, two elders who have lost most of their hope.
But then again, since Lu Mian knew everything, he would have to adopt another behavior.
Another more reasonable way to behave.
"Theresa, I won't hide anything from you. I can tell you clearly that I know the origin and meaning of this Winter Princess and this pair of Moon Goddess Guardian Spears.
"Are you really going to give them to Kiana in our school?" Lu Mian stared at the items in the gift box for a long time and suddenly spoke.
Hearing this, Theresa, who had already made some psychological preparations, still trembled violently.
A long time, a long time.
She spoke softly in a weak tone that was difficult to understand:
"Lu Mian, perhaps you have a natural foresight and can use it to figure out everything - I often feel this way.
"I don't know how you got this information that ordinary people can't grasp, and I don't want to delve into it because I believe in you, and this will probably not change now or in the future.
"But as you can see, I only have this one 'Kiana' now, and if possible, I want to give her all my best."
It can be seen that she is actually quite conflicted about this matter.
Otherwise, you can just give the gift directly without having to ask someone to pass on the gift.
Such an operation may be done not only because of trust in the middleman, but also because of the desire to avoid the fact of delivering the item personally.
Lu Mian naturally understood this, but he didn't care or bother about it at all.
There was even a vague urge to praise it by saying “this is a good idea”.
That's indeed the case, isn't it?
Under the night and moonlight, the man listened silently to the girl's statements and whispers in front of him, without responding for a long while.
Suddenly, the corners of his lips curled up and he smiled.
It was not the gentle smile she often showed in the past, but a confident and sunny smile that made anyone who saw it feel at ease and want to rely on her.
"Theresa, I appreciate your kindness on behalf of our Kiana.
“But since she has already taken her sister’s name, she can’t take away the gift her mother left for her sister. Otherwise, I don’t think she will be able to face her sister again in the future.
"I have already prepared other rewards and corresponding gifts for her in advance."
It was with such a smile that he said this.
Hearing the sound, Theresa, who was still a little unresponsive, was stunned for a moment and narrowed her eyes slightly.
Then, his narrowed eyes suddenly widened, and his relaxed body suddenly straightened up, "You mean!?"
In an instant, she gradually understood something and seemed to be enveloped by an indescribable sense of great surprise and happiness.
The whole person was wrapped in a warm feeling and couldn't extricate himself.
What follows is an urgent sense of anticipation and the fear and caution of not being able to achieve the desired result.
Lu Mian, who was quietly watching Theresa perform Sichuan Opera face-changing, chuckled and shook his head.
"Let's just assume that I really have the gift of foresight and can use it to figure out everything.
“Although the time is not yet ripe, I can assure you that you will meet the real Kiana in the future—even though she no longer uses this name.
"As for the current situation, don't worry. I will take care of everything and everything will be fine."
After saying this, he put away the Winter Princess and the pair of guns named Guardian of the Moon Goddess, preparing to return them to their original owners in the future.
At the same time, the action also indicated the end of this conversation.
All the complicated and noisy emotions in Theresa's heart, whose guess was confirmed, turned into surprise.
In addition to being surprised, she curled her lips and said:
"Really? How can you say half the words like that? Isn't this obviously a deliberate attempt to keep me in suspense? Do you still want me to get a good night's sleep for the next while?
"I now seriously suspect that you have secretly learned some social skills from my grandfather. Your substance is no longer pure. Come here quickly and accept my 'investigation'!"
What if I tell you now that the strongest Valkyrie of destiny, Yulandel, who once gave a sharp review of you and St. Freya Academy and whom you have been scolding until now, is the real Kiana.
What kind of expression will you show?
This bad but actually quite fun thought only stayed in Lu Mian's mind for a moment.
In the end, he just chuckled and didn't say anything.
Naturally, nothing was said.
The two of them just lay together on the small sofa, laughing and playing for a while.
Although everyone tried to lower their voices so as not to disturb the person who was resting, it was still very lively.
This kind of liveliness is not bad.
Ten minutes later.
After having a lot of fun and feeling a little tired, Lu Mian and Theresa slowly separated.
During this time, Lu Mian, who had just passively endured (enjoyed) and rarely fought back, did not breathe a single breath and his expression remained unchanged.
He just sat upright on the sofa, calmly adjusting his messy collar.
On the other hand, Theresa, who never stopped moving, looked quite miserable.
Not only was his face flushed and his breathing disordered, but he was also extremely tired.
Although she is indeed a real "granddaughter", she is made to look like a real granddaughter after a while.
Even suddenly looked a lot younger.
After taking a long time to calm down, Theresa calmed her breathing and opened her mouth to say something.
But suddenly, I was overwhelmed by a sudden drowsiness and yawned involuntarily.
Thinking about it, no matter what it is, someone will take care of it, and she doesn't need to worry about anything. She was defeated by sleepiness and stood up and said dazedly:
"Since you are so organized, just go for it. If you want to be the principal, just tell me and I will arrange it for you.
"This place is too far from my bedroom. I'll borrow your bedroom for now."
Having said this, he walked straight towards the only bedroom among the four bedrooms that she remembered.
In response to this, Lu Mian, who had been deprived of the right to use the bedroom by "unspoken rules" while chatting and laughing, slowly tilted his head and asked a question mark.
