Hearing Adam's words, Lin Ruo didn't deny it. She just manually added some tea for herself, took a sip and said, "You probably didn't come to see me today just to say happy birthday to me."
Although it was Adam who made the first call, Lin Ruo decisively chose to pass the blame at this moment.
"Even if I have nothing else to do, I will still come to say happy birthday to you. This is what I should do." Adam's expression did not change, and he still said with that smile that seemed gentle and kind but was actually emotionless.
What should be done... Lin Ruo tightened her grip on the cup. He raised his eyes to look at Adam. He paused when he saw those golden eyes that seemed to never change, and suddenly felt a little irritated.
He said: "If it is such an emotionless blessing, I would rather not have it."
Lin Ruo's tone could not be said to be good, it could even be called aggressive. This was a completely different attitude from the exchange between him and Medici just now. The former was just a joke, while the latter had the smell of real fire.
Medici next to him paused when he heard this. He seemed to glance at Adam, but didn't seem to.
"If you need it, I can show the emotion you want." Adam didn't look angry at all, but his words in a sense added fuel to the fire.
At least that's the case for Lin Ruo.
Even at this moment, Lin Ruo couldn't control his anger.
But in the end, he took a deep breath and restrained himself from looking at Medici. He also restrained some words that he couldn't say and shouldn't say at this time. He just mocked angrily: "Don't say it if you can't speak."
Open your mouth and no one will treat you as a mute."
"I just feel a little angry, and it will feel better if you vent it out." Adam said calmly, still looking calm.
This attitude again!
It looked like it was white again... Lin Ruo's hand holding the cup tightened again. He suddenly wanted to laugh, so he really laughed.
"I can understand that you are loving me the way He loves me?"
"Adam!"
He spat out the name Adam forcefully, with a bit of ridicule and a hint that both he and Adam knew.
As for whether this would be discovered by Medici next to him... Thinking of what Medici had always thought was that Adam wanted the Lord to resurrect him, and thinking of the sentence "This is a necessary sacrifice", Lin Ruo suddenly felt indifferent.
Already.
It's best not to discover it, but to discover it...
That’s fine!
Since some facts exist, they cannot be avoided in the first place.
"I'm just doing what He wants me to do, and that's always been the case." Adam replied calmly, looking at Lin Ruo, looking into her obsidian eyes.
"Always."
Being looked at by him like this, Lin Ruo suddenly felt a great sense of ridicule, and he couldn't help but said: "Including that matter?"
Adam seemed to be stunned for a moment. It was hard to tell what he was thinking in that half-second.
After being stunned for a moment, which made people wonder if it was an illusion, Adam glanced at Medici, and then his eyes fell on Lin Ruo.
He said: "This is a necessary sacrifice."
His tone was calm, as if nothing could shake Him.
Medici paused for a moment, then raised the corners of his mouth with a slightly mocking smile.
"Next time I will stew you and say this to you again."
"If necessary, of course I can be the one to be sacrificed." Adam said without paying attention to Medici's ridicule.
Lin Ruo suddenly felt a little unmotivated.
Without warning, Lin Ruo snatched the wine bottle from Medici's hand, took a sip, threw it back before the latter spoke, wiped his mouth, and said:
"I've calmed down, let's change the topic."
Medici raised his eyebrows, looked at the wine in his hand and then at Lin Ruo, who looked as usual after taking a sip of the wine. His face was not red and he was out of breath. He didn't say anything and continued to drink the rest of the wine.
"As for Amon, you don't need to worry about it for the time being. He has been imprisoned by you in the Land Abandoned by God, and he can't come out yet." Adam said naturally, but before the people in the room could relax, he added:
"But it seems that He is about to open the seal you set recently, and he may come out in a few months. So after you finish what you want to do in Backlund, it's best to take your students and leave here."
"I understand, thank you." Lin Ruo frowned. Although Adam said he shouldn't have to worry about being blocked by Amon for the time being, it was obvious that his good days were only a few months away. He still had to run away.
Run away.
But... "Amon was sealed by me in the Land Abandoned by the Gods. When did it happen?" Lin Ruo asked, actually having some guesses in her heart.
"After Amon almost destroyed the Abraham family, you were probably really angry that time. After severely injuring him, you sealed him in the land abandoned by God." Adam replied without any intention of hiding anything.
"It was also after this that your already shaky state deteriorated further."
"Tsk, naughty kid." Lin Ruo curled his lips, not surprised. He just looked at Adam and asked: "The deal between you and I was also reached during that time?"
Although he didn't know the specific situation, Lin Ruo was sure that there was definitely some kind of deal between him and Adam.
I just don’t know what the specific content of this transaction is.
"Yes." Adam nodded without denying.
"What is the content of the transaction?" Seeing that Adam was so talkative, Lin Ruo immediately asked more aggressively.
"I can't say." Adam shook his head. He looked at Lin Ruo and said in a gentle and emotionless tone, "This is not something you should know now."
"Okay." Lin Ruo didn't know what to say. Of course he knew that this might be another rule set by himself.
Lin Ruo just suddenly thought of something and asked: "Then you can always tell me whether that quill pen is a characteristic of mine?"
"No." Adam did not hide this matter. "That quill was formed at the end of the Third Age. It was the only sealed artifact formed by the writer's characteristics when he fell. It was always in your hand."
"That characteristic of yours was given directly to me."
Ah this!
Lin Ruo blinked and glanced at Adam with a subtle expression, "So you've always been one plus one before?"
Adam was noncommittal.
Lin Ruo weighed the tea cup. He actually wanted to ask something else, but felt it was unnecessary. In the end, he just took a sip of tea, put the tea cup down, stood up, and glanced at the clock on the wall.
"It's getting late, do you have anything else to do?"
"Maybe you don't mind if I spend your birthday with you?" Adam still had a gentle and kind smile.
"Tsk, whatever you want!" Lin Ruo stood up, picked up Medici's collar and pulled him up, saying, "Come with me to buy groceries."
Then he looked at Klein, who had been as quiet as a chicken, and said, "You go too."
"Oh, okay." Klein nodded quickly.
"Let's go!" Lin Ruo said expressionlessly.
He couldn't stay in this miserable place for a second.
