When a person deals with anything, there must be a sequence. If you can take care of one end, you will inevitably fail to take care of the other end.
Just like, if you want to put family interests first, you can't care too much about the personal relationships of your children. Although I understand this truth and have grown up well under this kind of education, I am not without gratitude in my heart.
It's just... once you get used to such a purposeful relationship and accept that you are just an inevitable extension of the family's survival, you can no longer find another way to get along closely with your family members.
She will hold herself to the standards of a qualified family member, and she has been able to naturally think about various issues from the perspective of family interests.
However, when the top priority in my mind became family, the identities at all levels subordinate to it seemed to be deconstructed.
The so-called father, mother, daughter... do not have any special meaning from this perspective, they are just positions.
No matter who stands in this position, he must make corresponding contributions to keep the entire family moving forward.
——Only responsibility, no warmth.
"When I was young, I used to hate my family." Songli said. Wayne held her with both hands, tucked the corner of the quilt behind her tighter, and listened quietly.
"At that time... the name 'Edgeworth' meant nothing to me except restraint." She smiled lightly when talking about the past.
o(m)
"Because I am an Edgeworth, I have to do what I must do and what I must not do... There are a lot of strange rules like this. They are like invisible walls that frame me. Just in a neat box.
"Everyone is always emphasizing in my ears, 'Don't let down the expectations of your family,' 'Don't let down the cultivation of your parents.' It's like all of this is just a transaction." The girl's whisper did not contain sadness or accusation. Emotions like that.
She just said the words that she had wanted to say for a long time, but no one could listen to her, in a casual tone as if she accidentally mentioned that the weather was great today.
“They put their investment on one end of the scale and then—
"Just looking forward to reaping corresponding or even excessive returns." The slightly thin blanket covering the two of them brought just the needed warmth on this summer night.
What lingers around her hand is the secret fragrance and tenderness that belongs only to her.
"And I... just with such expectations, I gradually became the person they wanted." There was both grievance and hesitation in the soft voice.
Wayne sighed silently, lowered his head and rubbed her neck. Geli had never told herself these thoughts before.
In the eyes of outsiders, she is always very proud of her family's reputation and puts family honor first in everything she does. If there is any behavior that violates this human code, after thinking about it, it is probably only... Ge Li in his arms moved slightly, put his legs on Wayne's waist, and sat up.
The long, silky hair was spread down, and a few strands rested on the side of Wayne's face, bringing a tickling touch.
"But because of you... this investment, which was supposed to yield immediate returns, completely failed." In the darkness, only her beautiful eyes shone like gems.
It does not contain any accusation. But in that scorching gaze that was about to melt him into the eyes, Wayne felt a little ashamed.
"I'm very sorry about this." He had to say,
"I will try to make amends."
"What can I do to compensate?" she asked.
"My personal money?" he asked tentatively. Song Li showed a disdainful expression: "Do you think that is a lot of money?" She seemed to have forgotten that she was also frightened by the huge amount.
It seems that during this period, Miss Kali, who has handled a lot of money, has developed an appetite. So Wayne had no choice but to close his eyes and tilt his head to the other side.
"Then use my people to pay off the debt. Please don't pity me!" Angered by his shameless shamelessness, Geli knocked him bitterly.
But, it doesn't hurt at all. Wayne grabbed her hand, pushed her back down, and kissed her again.
In the quiet night, only the night wind that blew from time to time occasionally rolled down a few leaves. ...In such a late night, not everyone has fallen into a wonderful dreamland.
At the same moment, the other corner of the royal city was brightly lit. This is a training ground belonging to the City Guard.
A city guard soldier on duty saw their highest officer, his eyes showed reverence, and he saluted loudly: "Lord Bulwer!" Bulwer noticed him and nodded to him.
Appearing in such a place at such a time is naturally not for the sake of romance. It was for a special operation arranged by him.
The purpose is to raise a special force under his command in the name of the commander-in-chief. Since taking office, although he has been the highest official in name, whenever he wants to do something, he still feels powerless.
This is all because his footing is not yet stable and he is still unable to compete with the aristocratic system that is rotten from its roots.
The City Guards, who seem to represent justice and are responsible for maintaining public security, are actually many people who have been recruited from various places.
As long as these guys don't cause trouble for themselves, it's simply impossible to expect them to obey their orders.
What's more, there are still people who are dissatisfied with their junior qualifications but coming from behind. But due to pressure from all aspects, even if there were constraints everywhere, I couldn't do anything to them.
Otherwise, they will immediately suffer fierce revenge from the forces behind them. One family may be able to resist, but what about ten families?
What about Baijia? It is the nature of those nobles to stick together. Once such a power struggle intensifies, even His Majesty the King will find it difficult to favor himself.
Bulwer knew very well that in the eyes of His Majesty the King, he was just a usable pawn. The meaning of existence is to fight for him, and it would not be a pity if it is damaged.
Therefore, he decided to start elsewhere to enhance his power. ——As the mysterious Miss Echos said,
"We must unite all forces that can be united." This special force, which is still in its infancy, is one of the important forces that can be used by ourselves in the future.
He gave this special force a codename: Red Rose Squad. It means that it is as beautiful as blood and has a fatal attraction.
The currently drafted list of participants is all carefully selected by me. What they have in common is that they come from humble backgrounds, are powerful and motivated.
Bulwer's eyes reflected the blazing light. He wants to use this team... to build his reputation in the capital, and even the entire kingdom.
