Chapter 113 Christmas Chapter 2
Chapter 113 Christmas Chapter 2
Carlyle Keith, when people in the local area mention him, the first thing that comes to mind is that he is an arms tycoon. He inherited the family business and brought the Keith family to a peak. After marrying the eldest daughter of the Leslie family, the family's status was further improved.
He and Ofitina were seniors and juniors in the same school. When he had just entered high school, he heard about the legendary senior who was one year older than him. Later, at a family banquet, the two met formally for the first time. Carlisle, who was still a young boy at the time, fell in love with her at first sight. The young boy's young love gradually sprouted, and he began a two-year pursuit. After successfully entering the same university, the two began dating.
In the second year after graduating from college, Carlisle inherited the family and held a wedding. People in the industry were surprised. How could the kid from the Keith family actually win over the proud daughter of the Leslie family?
Only those who are familiar with her know that Ofitina is only cold on the surface, but is actually very gentle at heart. This makes Carlisle very grateful because it can help him screen out many rivals.
The outside world, who had always thought that the two would not last long, secretly speculated how long it would take for them to divorce. However, the birth of Eleanor slapped them in the face. The eldest brothers of the two families were so happy that they raided several homes of the rival families as a gift to their little granddaughter.
When Ophitina accepted a second apprentice from Vongola, the two families became even more arrogant. Until now, other local forces dared not provoke them.
Not to mention the foundation of the two families themselves, the powerful combination of Ofitina, the weapon master, and Carlisle, the weapons tycoon, directly monopolized most of the local weapons resources. If they still want to survive in the local area, they can only cooperate with them or form an alliance. In addition, their family's protective nature means that even if the hostile families are unhappy, they can only keep it in the dark and dare not show it on the surface.
Miyin didn't have much contact with Carlisle. After all, the other party's heart and eyes were full of his wife and daughter. To put it bluntly, he was just in love. But he did take good care of him and Ulysses. If they were in trouble, he would definitely come to help them at the first time.
╮(╯▽╰)╭As Ofitina’s apprentices, they and their fellow apprentices had often been in trouble with some families when they were young. Although in the end these families were either ransacked or had their property confiscated, Carlisle played a big role in this.
Back to the present.
After obtaining consent, Yayin took a few photos in the manor and sent them to Tsunayoshi. One of them was a picture of their family of three in the rose garden. The combination of handsome men, beautiful women and cute girls was very pleasing to the eyes. With the photographer's skills, it could be used as a wallpaper in minutes.
The roses in this garden are taken care of by a dedicated person every day. Although it is a waste of resources to let a group of combatants be gardeners, it is a lucrative job. You can get the same salary but do different jobs. You can use Qingyan to make the roses bloom or go out to do missions where your life or death is uncertain. Any worker would know which one to choose.
By the way, these roses are special species that Carlisle asked someone to research. After all, he is a love-brained man, and his research is just to make his wife's favorite roses bloom all year round.
Later, Carlisle asked for this family photo, printed it out, enlarged it, and hung it up at the entrance of the rose garden as a poster.
Gojo Satoru, who had also received the photo, immediately made a long-distance call. The moment the call was connected, he cried out in pain, "You went abroad to play without me!"
"I came to see the master and spend Christmas with them. Why did I bring you here?" Miyin replied, with a smile unconsciously rising at the corner of her mouth.
"..." Gojo Satoru on the opposite side seemed stunned for a moment, and his tone dropped. "When will you be back?"
"The flight is tomorrow afternoon." Thinking back to the plane ticket she saw yesterday, Miyin gave a time, "Maybe it will land at ten o'clock."
"I'll pick you up!" Gojo Satoru's tone suddenly became much higher, and at the same time, Geto Suguru's angry shouts and the sounds of fighting came from behind him.
"Satoru! Stop slacking off! Come help!"
"That's it for now, see you tomorrow!" He said and hung up without waiting for a reply.
Looking at the chat interface with her brother still on the phone screen, Miyin laughed. For a moment, she was a little unsure of the other party's attitude, but it didn't hurt after all.
Ulysses, who was about to approach the corner, saw this scene and stopped unconsciously. He felt a little lost in his heart. He stood there for a while, slapped his face, smiled again and walked over.
"Will, Eleanor asked me to ask if you would like to help decorate the Christmas tree."
"Okay, I'll be right there." After replying, Miyin put away her phone. When she looked up, she found that the other party was in a bad mood. "Yuli, what's wrong with you?"
Ulysses was stunned for a moment after being discovered, then he immediately shook his head and smiled at him: "Nothing, let's go quickly, Master and the others are still waiting."
Seeing that the other party was unwilling to say more, Miyin stopped asking and gently pushed his back: "Let's go."
Arriving at the hall, Ofitina and Eleanor were putting small ornaments on the Christmas tree. Carlisle was standing on a ladder wrapping ribbons around the tree. When he noticed the two approaching, he greeted them.
"Will, can you help me put the star at the highest point?"
"Okay." Compared to Ulysses, who was still a seventh-year student at Hogwarts, Miyin was much freer. Moreover, he directly blocked the detection of the Ministry of Magic, so he could use magic however he wanted.
He took out his wand, waved it lightly, and whispered a spell to disguise it: "Wingardium Leviosa (Levitation Spell)."
A huge golden star slowly rose up, and gradually floated to the top of the tree in the direction pointed by the magic wand, then slowly fell down and was successfully placed there.
Eleanor cheered and said she wanted to learn this. Ofitina told her that she had to wait until she was eleven years old. If an owl delivered a message, she could go to a special school to learn it. The little girl hugged Miyin and tried to act coquettishly to get the other party to give her special lessons. Then she was grabbed by Carlisle who climbed down the ladder and lifted up. This scene made everyone laugh out loud.
At dinner, the chefs enthusiastically used all their life's knowledge to cover the entire long table with a special Christmas dinner. Eleanor looked at the dessert tower that was taller than her in distress, and turned to ask her father if most of the dishes could be given to the servants, as the five of them alone could not eat so much. Carlisle smiled and agreed to the suggestion.
In the evening, Ofitina and Carlisle took a walk in the garden, enjoying a rare moment of time alone together. The boys, pulled by the little girl, accompanied her to play board games in each other's exclusive game room. As apprentices, they took on the responsibility of taking care of the children very skillfully.
The next afternoon, the day after Christmas, under the reluctant gaze of Eleanor and Ulysses, Miyin entered the boarding gate and sent a message to her brother far away that she was about to return.
Ofitina watched her eldest disciple staring at the other's disappearing back for a long time without coming back to his senses, and sighed silently. Carlisle gently put his arm around her shoulders, and the two looked at each other in silence. The look of everything being said without words made Eleanor very confused.
╭(╯^╰)╮Humph, the adults are hiding a secret from her again.
