Tohsaka Rin opened his eyes drowsily.
"Well, this is it?"
After realizing that this was an unfamiliar environment, she immediately looked at the unfamiliar environment around her with vigilance.
"Did you sleep well, Rin?"
The man sitting next to her held a book in his hand and was flipping through it. After noticing her, he said hello casually.
And her sister, like a cub, put her head on the man's leg, with a happy face.
"cherry?"
Tohsaka Rin gradually recalled everything. After reuniting with his sister, the two people of the same age group immediately chatted together. Although most of the time it was a special lecture about how great Roland was, but in between Under Kiri Sakura's intoxicated narration, Tohsaka Rin also changed his view on Roland.
Powerful, mysterious, unassuming, gentle but always maintaining an appropriate sense of distance, perhaps Sakura's sincere narration does have some effect.
Although her father is still the most perfect person in her heart, as an admiring adult, people like Roland will inevitably make her heart flutter sometimes.
After getting tired of chatting, the two sisters didn't care about the environment because they were with their sister. They took a nap on the sofa for a while. Unexpectedly, when they woke up, they found that Roland seemed to have been back for a while.
"What's wrong?"
Looking at Tohsaka Rin who was looking at him blankly, Roland asked doubtfully.
"Nothing at all!"
Tosaka Rin blinked her big eyes and lowered her head subconsciously to cover up the blush caused by her previous reverie. She immediately jumped off the sofa, and her black and thick twin ponytails swayed with her movements.
"what time is it now?"
"Don't worry, I'll take you back."
"Never."
Although she has a very deep impression of Roland, Tohsaka Rin is not ready to accept the kindness offered by the guy who was her enemy that morning so quickly. Even if she reaches a deal with him, she still has dignity!
"Are you sure? School is over now."
Roland didn't care, he just touched Sakura's head with an expression of watching a good show.
"Ugh——!"
Tohsaka Rin felt like she was struck by lightning. The note she left to her mother only contained the matter of leaving early. Maybe she could get over it, but if it was too late to get home, it would be completely unclear.
Although Tokiomi Tokiomi is the backbone of the Tosaka family, in daily interactions, he is only responsible for matters such as magic teaching. Aoi usually leads Tosaka Rin, and even though Tosaka Rin comes from the bottom of his heart I think my mother is very gentle, but I am also afraid of seeing her angry face.
If you rely on the opponent's power of walking through the shadows, it's still too late to save this point.
But Roland seemed not to see the confusion on Tohsaka Rin's face at this moment, showing an innocent smile and not mentioning sending her home.
Rin Tosaka, who was less than ten years old, had a deep understanding of the filth and helplessness of the adult world. She ran to Roland, pulled Roland's hand under Sakura Matou's suddenly sharp eyes, and held her hand. The dignity he had just picked up was thrown aside.
"Please help me, Lord Roland!"
Although the second half of the sentence seemed to be said through gritted teeth, Roland naturally did not care about this. The deep darkness swarmed up and enveloped the two figures.
At the door of Chancheng's house, Roland saw Tohsaka Aoi again. She was still as dignified and beautiful as ever, with the elegance inherited from the Tosaka family.
"I'm really sorry. This kid always does things based on intuition without considering reality and causes you trouble."
Holding Tohsaka Rin's hand, Tohsaka Aoi calmly bowed deeply towards Roland, who claimed to be a kind-hearted person passing by and took the initiative to give Tosaka Rin a ride, showing off her plump figure.
"It's just a little effort," Roland said with a bright smile. He always had a quiet and arrogant temperament about him, so taking the initiative to show this kind of smile always made people feel very friendly.
After chatting casually for a while, Tohsaka Aoi was even more surprised to find that although she looked very young, Roland was able to do everything at her fingertips, whether it was housework, cooking skills, or various daily trivial matters. With the same temperament as Yamato Nadeshiko, and the status of Mrs. Tosaka, Tosaka Aoi, who did not have many friends, had a rare sincere smile on her lips.
Although being so compatible with a young man who is much younger than herself makes Tosaka Aoi feel a little bit subtle, but with her who spends most of her time maintaining social status in a prestigious family or studying magic, her daily interactions are not cold, but Compared to Tosaka Tokiomi, who was never enthusiastic, this state indeed made Tohsaka Aoi more relaxed.
"It's almost dinner time. Is there anything else, Mr. Luo Lan? If it's convenient, can you please come to my house and try my handicrafts?"
"Although I really want to say that being respectful is worse than obeying orders, it's a pity," Roland said with a troubled expression. "Seeing such an excellent wife like Miss Kui, I have to go home quickly and see my wife."
"Is Mr. Luo Lan getting married at such a young age?" Tohsaka Aoi was a little surprised and said with a smile while covering her mouth. "No wonder, compared to women like me, the young ladies at home are more attractive."
"You are joking. Frankly speaking, this is an arranged marriage in the woman's family, and I am the passive one." Roland pretended to sigh, "But even so, as a father, I cannot leave my daughter alone. , if I really have to choose a marriage partner, a good wife and mother like Miss Kui will be more attractive to me."
Before she had time to react to the fact that Roland had a child, Tohsaka Aoi's beautiful face was filled with a peach-like blush.
"... Mr. Roland is joking again."
"After all, it's just some presumptuous words, please don't take it to heart," Roland said steadily to Tosaka Aoi, and quickly left before the other party became wary. "Then I'll take my leave now."
But just as he turned around and took a few steps, Roland turned back, winked at Tohsaka Aoi, and showed a sly smile.
"However, the comments I just made came from my heart."
After saying that, he ignored the reactions of the two people behind him and left directly.
Tohsaka Aoi, who was stunned in place, didn't come back to her senses until her clothes were pulled by Rin next to her.
As a descendant of the Zenjo family who was once a magic family, Tohsaka Aoi has no magic circuit, but her bloodline is still very good and she is a precious mother. Therefore, from the beginning, she was booked by the Matou family. After Ye voluntarily gave up, Tosaka Tokiomi quickly chose to take over. Therefore, Tohsaka Aoi actually did not have the freedom to choose marriage.
But she had no dissatisfaction due to her upbringing. After all, Tosaka Tokiomi was an excellent husband and had always been very kind to her. Therefore, Tosaka Aoi has always blindly reciprocated her love, even if her daughter had to be given away. Go, even if Rin and Sakura may have hatred and fight as competitors in the future.
She is strong and will not show her emotions to these things, but obeys obediently. Matou Sakura's usual behavior comes from her personal example.
This was the first time for Tohsaka Aoi to receive such direct praise from Roland.
"Is he also a person who can't choose marriage? Like me..." Thinking of Roland's previous words, Tohsaka Aoi, who had a strange misunderstanding, had subconsciously regarded the other party's situation as being consistent with her own, and then because of the undue things in her mind The thought came up and he quickly shook his head.
She is the wife of Tokiomi Tosaka, and as long as she still has this status, she must maintain this kind of foolish loyalty like a minister to the master.
But if you just meet a new friend, is it still allowed?
"Mother?"
Tohsaka Rin held her mother's hand vigilantly. She had never seen her mother show such a soft gaze, with longing and a little shyness.
"It's nothing, Rin, let's go home." Hearing her daughter's call, Tohsaka Aoi smiled brightly and walked towards the Zencheng house.
And Tohsaka Rin, who wanted to remind his mother Roland's true identity, couldn't find a suitable reason for the secret of being subdued because he was also possessed by Ishtar and destroyed Matou without authorization.
In the end, the mother and daughter, who had their own concerns, finally arrived at the door of Chancheng's house.
Tohsaka Aoi bent down slightly and stared at her daughter's face with a serious expression.
"Rin, you can't tell dad what happened today."
"In exchange, mom won't tell dad that you didn't come home in time from school and wandered around Fuyuki City where you couldn't stay longer."
"Well……"
Tohsaka Rin looked at his mother's expression and finally nodded helplessly.
