At night, the moonlight outside the window is hazy and foggy.
Bai Zhe looked down at Barbara buried in his arms, stretched out his hand and gently stroked her back. It seemed that her mood had almost stabilized.
"Do you feel better? Why don't you sleep in my arms for a while."
Barbara nodded hesitantly without saying a word, hummed again and adjusted her posture, then reached out and held Bai Zhe's hand, so that she felt more at ease.
Barbara is undoubtedly fragile, weak, and lovable now.
In the dark night, Bai Zhe's black and red eyes revealed a hint of scarlet. He stretched out his free hand to gently lift Barbara's blond hair, held it in front of him and kissed her. Her hair was tinged with light daffodils. of fresh fragrance.
Barbara opened her originally closed blue eyes and took in Bai Zhe's face. Her breathing became a little heavier, and the hand she held became tighter. I want to let go even a little bit.
Suddenly, a sweet humming sound came from Barbara's mouth.
It was a simple yet emotional melody. This song was sung only for him, and now I only want to sing it for him.
I don't know when the singing ended. Barbara was lying in Bai Zhe's arms like a lazy cat. She felt satisfied just to spend time with him quietly.
But human beings are often full of emotions.
"Bai Zhe...didn't my family send someone out to look for me?"
Facing Barbara's question, Bai Zhe did not answer directly. Instead, he reached out and stroked her hair back and forth, then kissed Barbara on the forehead and asked calmly, "Are you homesick?"
As if she was worried that Bai Zhe would be angry, Barbara wanted to explain clearly, but her lips were blocked and she couldn't speak...
The kiss dissipated her inner uneasiness.
Barbara licked her lower lips and whispered with a remorseful tone: "I'm sorry..."
Bai Zhe stopped her slender waist and said, "Why do you have to apologize? Isn't it normal to miss home?"
Barbara shook her head as if denying something, then sat up straight, stretched out her hands to hold Bai Zhe's hand and placed it on her chest.
"You know what? I actually don't miss everyone in the Gunnhild family that much. What I miss is my sister...Qin."
"Sister, she is very good, very, very good. She is always the pride of adults, the object of admiration, and the existence recognized by everyone."
"I still remember the days when I was a child and lived with everyone. I was the only one who was clumsy and always failed in everything I did. Everyone always compared my sister with me..."
"At that time, I was always in a very low mood, but every time I cheered up quickly. I always thought, try again, try one more time, and I will succeed one time."
"Diligence can make up for failure, that's how I always comforted myself at that time... Haha, are you deceiving yourself?"...
"And Qin is the pride of the family. She is completely different from the clumsy me. People often say that we are not like sisters at all... They always compare my sister and me. Naturally, everyone will like Qin more every time we compare. , I became more and more unwilling. I don’t know when it started, but I had an idea in my heart: I want to win once, I want to beat her head-on."
"But contrary to expectations, whether it's swordsmanship or learning, I was born into the Gunhild family of knights. I have never been able to surpass her in learning anything..."
"I've obviously worked very hard...but I just haven't won once."
Barbara could no longer hold back her tears, and big tears fell on Bai Zhe's body. Barbara, who had confided in her heart, looked so fragile at this moment.
"At that time, I really, really wanted to be recognized by other people, but they always only had Qin in their eyes..."
With tearful words filled with sobs, Barbara who confided her heart undoubtedly opened the door to Bai Zhe's heart.
Barbara showed low self-esteem and helplessness, as if she was an unloved child, but her
There was a hint of expectation in his eyes, and the expectation he had for the person in front of him was that his words would definitely...
Just as Barbara expected, Bai Zhe stretched out his hands and took her into his arms again. He leaned into her ear and said, "It doesn't matter, they are not important. Just remember, I recognize you."
Barbara didn't speak, but nodded.
Bai Zhe held Barbara's face close and pressed her lips to comfort her, as if to tell her that I am by your side.
…
Bai Zhe, who sent Barbara back to the room, crossed his arms and looked at Rosalia in the dark with an indifferent expression.
Rosalia walked out with a smile and said: "I didn't expect that our Lord also has an interest in training. That is the idol of Mondstadt, Miss Barbara. Now she can't live without you. Alright."
There was a hint of chill in Bai Zhe's expressionless eyes. It was obviously not much different from his previous expression, but Rosalia felt an unprecedented sense of oppression! And you can feel the Honkai Energy in his body starting to stir, which is obviously a sign of being emotional!
"Barbara works hard, and I don't hate people who work hard."
Under the moonlight, those black and red eyes gradually turned scarlet. The oppressive feeling caused by Bai Zhe, who was emotionally driven by the collapse, made Rosalia feel a little uncomfortable.
"Really, but her identity is extraordinary after all, and you can't hide it for long. You probably won't break the agreement you made with me before."
Bai Zhe leaned against the wall with his arms folded, glanced at the scenery outside the window and said, "I have never broken my promise. I will not inject Honkai energy into other members of the Knights. This is a promise to you. . Of course, if you choose to betray me, that will be a different matter."
Rosalía looked at Bai Zhe with her gray eyes, and said slowly: "I will not betray you, rather I am curious about you. You are very good, and the current knights cannot ignore your existence. Knight Kaia is your best friend, you hold the Sidman family as a chess piece, and even the West Wind Church is already your puppet."
"Looking at it this way, you are indeed very dangerous, but that is only to the regime in Mondstadt. You have not changed anything for the ordinary people in Mondstadt City."
"It seems to me that you are extremely persistent in Mondstadt's regime. However, you have invested a large amount of Mora in Mondstadt's basic industry. This is obviously a business with very shallow returns and very slow returns. You Interfering with Mondstadt and helping Mondstadt... Such a contradictory thing, what are you pursuing?"
At this time, Bai Zhe showed a smile, that smile was so unrestrained and playful.
"What are you pursuing? No, I'm not pursuing anything. I only care about whether I have fun, that's all."
Rosalia didn't ask any further questions and returned to her room without saying a word.
The moment he disappeared from Bai Zhe's sight, his expression was immediately filled with indifference, and his sense of world-weariness was very obvious.
Even if Bai Zhe can cover up the appearance, he can't escape the loneliness and desolation in his heart...
