As George and his party moved forward, the oncoming scent was no longer just the fragrance of flowers, plants and trees, but gradually mixed with swamp and bloody mud. The surrounding forest with giant trees began to become jagged, and everywhere There were traces of being ravaged by swords, axes, arrows, and offensive magic.
After all, we are approaching the outpost of the tug-of-war between the two countries, the enclave of Fortress Juárez.
"Ah Sneeze! Damn it, why hasn't spring come yet!"
The cold wind in early spring is still biting, and humid places like swamps intensify the power of the cold wind. Even with the protection of the phoenix's mutated bloodline, George was still unavoidable. He was shivering by the cold wind that shuttled through the forest. After an "uncontrollable" sneeze, two transparent "drawings" followed the force of gravity, and he couldn't help but sneeze. It hung from George's nostrils to his lips.
This is not possible!
You can't ruin your image as a tall and mighty leader!
Sensing the "drawing" under his nose, George quickly wiped his face as quickly as possible, and used the high-temperature fire element in his palm to instantly evaporate the two transparent "drawings".
"Honey, put on the scarf quickly, the mucus is coming out of your nose! Really, you are such a big man, why can't you take care of yourself like a child?"
George's little moves may be hidden from others, but they can't be hidden from the person beside her. Lova rolled her eyes at him gently, and like taking care of the young Apollo, she put her arms around George's shoulders and protected him. I put on the scarf I knitted by myself, and finally gave my husband a warm smile.
Ben was still complaining about George that spring came too late. The moment he looked at his wife's smile, George suddenly stopped complaining about the belated spring.
Because spring is always by his side.
It's a pity that the suppressed laughter one after another interrupted the warm atmosphere.
"Damn it, you guys, stop holding it in, just laugh if you want! Anyway, I have a wife to care for, so you bunch of thousand-year-old singles, just think you are barking!"
As a result of his wife's meticulous care, George's nose was filled with snot. In addition to the residual warmth of being cared for by his lover, there was also a sense of shame that gradually appeared on his face. After noticing that the vampire men around him had suppressed smiles on their faces but did not dare to laugh out loud, , George’s old face became even redder!
Finally, George, who was a little angry, simply issued the pardon order in a mocking tone, which made the vampires who couldn't hold it back laugh one after another. For a while, the originally too deserted team was rarely filled with joy. breath.
Affected by this relaxed atmosphere, George's cold face that had been stern for a long time became much softer, and looking at the way her lover's eyebrows finally relaxed, the corners of Lova's mouth couldn't help but raise slightly.
It has been a month since he left Red Pine City. During this time, George has always had a gloomy face. Even when discussing business with representatives of chambers of commerce in other cities, he failed to put on his usual professional smile.
Luo Wa didn't say anything, but she was very worried in her heart.
George didn't tell what exactly happened in Red Pine City, and Lova didn't ask, but that didn't mean she couldn't guess the truth. Although he was in the alchemy potion business, his husband suddenly purchased a large amount of trophies of varying quality from his grandfather without any warning. He even refused his grandfather's offer of discounts.
George is Lova's husband, and Lova knows George's character very well. He doesn't like extravagance, let alone dedicating everything to the elves. This is the impression George left on Lova in the past.
After returning from the Kaos Empire, George seemed to start to "care about" every expenditure he took out of his pocket, and during his time as a businessman, this character became "intensified."
But this time, George spent an unprecedented amount of money to acquire a pair of tattered trophies. If George hadn't wanted to pay extra money to gain a relationship with his grandfather, then George was most likely paying this large amount of money to get rid of the threat of his grandfather!
Never underestimate women's intuition and insight. Many times, their guesses are even more accurate than the vampire's telepathic talent!
"Dear Mrs. Lova, don't worry, everything will be fine!"
Without any warning, George, who was still smiling bitterly, suddenly said this to Lova. Subconsciously, Lova raised her head and met George's gaze. The man in front of her, in the depths of his deep eyes, hid unbreakable sadness, and used poor acting skills to try to cover up the tenderness of this sadness.
Lova read George's eyes. They were her husband. When she realized that she might have guessed the truth, she had not yet recovered from her frustration, but she still cheered up and covered herself with that... A coat called security.
Lova originally thought that the person who needed to be taken care of was George, but she didn't expect that the person who was being taken care of silently was herself!
Unknowingly, a line of tears overflowed from her eyes, crossed Lova's beautiful face, and fell between George's fingers.
"Little fool, what's wrong? Be good, stop crying! We're about to go to Juarez. I'll accompany you there to buy some delicious food and fun!"
"Wow! George, you big bad guy, I won't live with you anymore!"
"Ah? What did I do wrong again? Miss Hilna, what do you think I did wrong?"
"Hmm, I think it's your fault, George! What should I do? I want to cry now!"
"Miss, my eldest! Don't make trouble, I beg you!"
…
Wiping away the tears on his wife's face, George's eyes were full of doting. However, in exchange for this doting, his wife burst into tears!
This time, George was even more confused, and the vampires who were responsible for eating melons on the side were blushing again!
Today's George is still a poor man who can't read women's hearts!
