What does it mean?
The man was stunned for a long time, and Winnie stared at each other for a long time. Even Winnie felt a little embarrassed, and he suddenly burst into laughter.
"Hahaha... What kind of spy? Miss, you misunderstood me a lot."
The blood-red hatred that Winnie carried was so intense that even the sparks disappeared from her heart at these words.
She has always had childishness and a sense of justice deep in her soul since she was a child. The best place to show her prominence is to change the ugliness in front of her, punish the evil and promote the good. Although the effect is only half achieved, she does not care about her reputation.
This time she clearly saw the mysterious handover of tokens and the faintly looming World Tree pattern on her sleeves, and was finally able to make a strong mark on her "road to justice"...
But this man? Winnie blushed even more and grabbed the man's collar, "I've seen Kassel's school badge, and I've also heard about what you were doing behind the scenes... Do you dare to repeat what you did just now? In front of me!"
I, Winifred, am the host of this banquet. You can’t do anything here!
Or have some idea of our family!
The man chuckled, his blue eyes narrowed slightly, and Winnie's heart beat loudly. This man was like a fox, exuding filthy odor, not a good thing!
The man stretched out his hands, but there was nothing. Seeing that the girl was about to explode again, he had no choice but to touch all the pockets on his body, and finally found a small emblem.
"I am indeed related to Kassel, but it is limited to my father's generation. My father has recently been involved in a secret mission and cannot contact the outside world, so he secretly entrusted someone to work in a place where Kassel is least likely to be involved. Wherever you look, be gentle with me for a brief moment."
Winnie took a closer look at the emblem. It didn't look like the World Tree, but more like a metal souvenir sold in a street toy store.
"This is my birthday gift. It's been many years late. I haven't seen my father for a long time." The man shook his head gently with a gentle and regretful expression.
Although Winnie still looked suspicious, she slowly let go of the man. Well, it was confirmed that there was no weapon or hostility.
Then, in front of the man, she had messy curly hair on her head and her clothes were wrinkled and covered with dust and leaves, but she made a standard salute extremely elegantly, "I'm sorry, sir, but you are still very suspicious. My recklessness bothers you." It’s your turn, I’m sorry.”
The man also got up and smiled happily, "Call me Victor, Miss, you are really unapologetic."
Winnie glanced at him and stretched out her hand. Victor didn't understand what she meant and tilted his head to look at her.
"To express my apology, I will escort you back to the court." Winnie found that this man... Victor, was much taller than her. She raised her head inexplicably unhappy and looked straight at his... nostrils.
"Miss, you really hold a grudge." Victor shook his head helplessly, but still obediently put his hand into the girl's petite palm.
In the lively banquet hall, at a certain moment, all the guests fell silent in agreement. Some boldly stared at the people who had just entered, while others pretended not to notice and concentrated on keeping quiet.
Winifred, the host of the party, came in disheveled, leading a strange man who looked very docile.
Victor simply had no shame in looking at himself directly. He covered his face in despair, forgetting for a moment that Winnie was a girl who had not yet left the court, and also some of the deeply hurtful rumors and glances.
But the girl leading him didn't seem to notice. She held her head high and the brilliance in her eyes was even brighter than the crystal chandelier in the banquet hall.
Victor was silent.
A girl, because of some rumors about Cassel—perhaps prejudice, after all, not all mixed-race families support Cassel—ran alone to expose him, an adult who was reckless, yet very cute. Very courageous.
He was almost exposed just now...
After the banquet, Victor stood up to leave, but was blocked by another oncoming host.
The black-haired girl had a skilled business smile on her face, "Mr. Victor Vivare, I have long been famous. I am Lois Auguste."
Victor bowed and said, "Hello." Then when he stood up, he turned his eyes and saw Winnie behind Qin Luo, looking at him curiously with her round eyes open.
"Winnie, this is Mr. Vivare, a well-known professor inside and outside the academic world." Qin Luo took a step away from Winnie, as if he didn't know what happened between them...
"First meeting." Two voices sounded together. Victor met Winnie's straightforward gaze, and his own face could not help but heat up.
Hmm... It's a bit like a little secret. Looking at the 19-year-old girl, he felt a vitality from the bottom of his heart, which was very pleasant.
Although as a researcher outside Kassel, it’s okay to make friends occasionally, right?
Victor's research mission is to study and dig out the secrets of the Vanzo family.
Now, he often interacts with Winnie because of Qin Luo's extreme methods.
The head of the August family was obviously very kind, and he had no interest in Cassel's research project, so there was no suspicion... The young Victor was still simple-minded and didn't think much about it.
After Winnie got acquainted with him, the two unexpectedly got along very well. The 21-year-old Victor was gentle and considerate, and he could clearly see Winnie's beautiful appearance.
But sometimes he couldn't help but say, "Silly girl, if you don't care about your reputation, your image will be polarized. No wonder no man dares to approach you. Look at Lizzie, she can even receive love letters."
Winnie just put her hands on her hips and said, "What does this mean? Anyone who dares to marry me in the future will definitely love me very much!"
Seeing her like this, Victor couldn't help but raise his lips, and then said with a mysterious face, "That's right, at worst, I'll marry you."
Time seemed to move a little slower, and the handsome blond professor also understood what he was doing. He just felt that he should be more straightforward and proactive, but he couldn't control his blush. He insisted on keeping his eyes fixed on Winnie.
The girl lowered her head in a rare move. After a long time, Victor was patient enough, and Winnie said softly and softly, "Then when I grow up, uncle, let's fall in love... It's agreed."
Victor was stunned for a moment, then suddenly took a step forward, stood in front of Winnie, bent his knees to look at her level, finally saw the shy appearance of the hedgehog girl, and laughed stupidly.
"Don't worry, there will always be someone in this world who likes you as weird as I do."
"And I'm only two years older than you. Why am I the uncle..."
"Because you are handsome... No, you look very old!"
…
Three years later, Elizabeth faced a very miserable day in her life. Her sister, who had been with her for 15 years, actually got married and was taken away by a man who looked like a peacock.
Her mouth was pressed firmly by Qin Luo, and she finally suppressed her crying.
Victor recognized his own thoughts. He did not have as noble a consciousness as his father. He just envied the ordinary life more.
He chose to leave Kassel and give up the task of researching "Vandro". He chose Winifred, a member of Vandro, who had almost become the subject of his research.
It wasn't until Winnie became pregnant at the age of 25 that he was forced to know the secret of the Vandro family.
"The limit of blood?" Having been exposed to a lot of dragon knowledge, he looked at his wife who was getting thinner and thinner, as if she had been thrown into the abyss, and a bad assumption surged in his chest.
There is a chance that the mother's body will be consumed by high-level mixed-bloods... He has studied the upper three families in Japan and knows that in history, there have been many vicious children. Due to the unstable bloodline, their parents have suffered a lot, and some have even been torn apart. Born from the mother's body.
Fortunately, Wendy was born safely. Although Winnie was weak, she was very happy.
"She is withering visibly to the naked eye..." Elizabeth came to visit, worried.
Victor was silent, he was uneasy.
The luckier you are, the more you care about the price of this luck.
After all, Winnie is not like Elizabeth. Like some mixed-races, she has no voice.
For example, a hybrid without a spirit of speech may be a time bomb in itself, and the opposite result of mediocrity may be extremely dangerous.
Then don’t let anything happen to your beloved wife...
Qin Luo also came here. Winnie seemed to have a lot to say to her alone, so Victor took Wendy and stayed outside.
Until the owner of the house suddenly opened the door with a "bang" and pulled Victor in, facing Winnie who was pale and lifeless.
"Why……"
These three words echoed in the young father's mind for decades.
——
There was a reason why Winnie called Qin Luo in.
Because when she was pregnant with Wendy, she found that she had become a "medium".
It's not that Wendy's bloodline is unstable. With Vanzhuo's miraculous genes that haven't changed for thousands of years, the Vanzhuo family is extremely stable unless their own bloodline mutates or becomes ordinary.
"Medium" refers to the medium of the world. She had many dreams one after another, some of which were not like dreams at all, but like illusions, appearing domineeringly before her eyes.
In the black and white vision, there appeared the flames under the reservoir, the ice-covered continent, and the endless night.
She thought about the history of dragons she had come into contact with, and had an intuition and understanding in her heart, but she could not describe it completely and accurately.
The information she was forced to accept about the future forced her to consume her own life and reminded her of the prophet Isaiah in the Bible, who was eventually picked up by God's chariot of fire.
Is God reclaiming her?
She was almost out of strength. She tried her best to describe what she saw to the dragon she knew, Qin Luo.
Finally, looking at the dragon clan that had protected her since childhood, she felt warm in her heart, and thanked Qin Luo for pushing Victor to her side. Although he came to this world in a hurry, at least it was wonderful.
She was unable to resist the sudden resistance in her life.
See you again on the branches of the world tree... my love...
