Chapter 241 The Responsibilities of Men and Gentlemen
Chapter 241 The responsibilities of men and gentlemen
Initially, Gray Lint was still guessing whether Ursula came to him because he wanted to talk to him about his other plan because of his status as the "Lord of Order"... But he denied it after a second thought.
This guess, because there is no need to hide it from Carol.
Full of doubts, he took advantage of the darkness, half a step behind Carol, grabbed an invisible hand with his right hand, and pulled out a copper ring.
…
Carrying Gray Lint, Carol passed through the room where she rested and discussed matters with outsiders, passed through the room where she read and dealt with matters, and then came to the innermost book storage area, and finally turned around and left consciously.
Here - based on her understanding of her mother's extraordinary abilities, although she was curious, she did not attempt to eavesdrop on their chat.
Ursula looked at her daughter's back, looked at the closed door, smiled apologetically at Gray Linte and said:
"Sorry to disturb your rest so late."
"It's okay, Auntie, you must have something important to tell me, right?"
Gray Linte's guard was slightly lowered, and he asked directly without saying much to her.
This just happened to suit Ursula's wish. Some things should be said clearly and decisively, and ambiguity was the most taboo. She nodded, stared intently into Gray Linte's eyes, and spoke as plainly as possible.
said:
"I love my baby very much, but I also know that the more this happens, the less I should interfere with her pursuit of her own happiness."
"——But I have to make sure that it is indeed 'real happiness' for her."
After saying this, she paused for a moment and continued with a questioning tone:
"How long do you plan to stay with her like this?"
Here we are, finally asking about this matter! Glerint originally thought that she would be in contact with him for at least a day or two before talking about this matter... He felt nervous, not understanding what Ursula actually was.
Do you support or oppose it? I had to bite the bullet and ask:
"Auntie, what do you mean?"
Ursula was still staring at him:
"I want to confirm your attitude and give you some suggestions, or to be more serious, call it a reminder. A warning is not impossible."
My attitude... If I can determine my own thoughts, then things will be simple - make a decision, then just work hard in the direction of the goal. Why are there so many troubles?
Gray Linte sighed secretly, not knowing what kind of response he should make.
He tentatively said:
"I would like to hear your experience first, aunt?"
Ursula frowned slightly, feeling really annoyed. She didn't expect that even if she pressed her to this point, Gray Lint would still be prevaricating and refusing to respond directly.
She pondered for a moment and said in a more serious tone:
"I don't know, and I don't want to know what kind of concerns you have. That's not something I need to consider... I only know that no matter what, you should show your responsibility as a man and give your baby a clear answer.
Explain - this is exactly the purpose of me looking for you today."
In Gray Lint's silence, she further added:
"No matter how great the difficulty is, it can only be overcome by people."
"If you are willing, I believe that the baby will be willing to work with you to overcome the difficulties you are worried about, and as long as she is willing, I will certainly help.
But if you don’t have this idea, then it’s best to tell her clearly as soon as possible, or consciously stay away from her – this is what you, as a man and a gentleman, should do!”
After another pause, she already had a stern expression:
"I will never sit back and watch her sink deeper and deeper, while you can be so calm as if nothing is wrong."
…
Gray Linte never expected that the gentle and dignified Ursula could have such a cold and intimidating attitude.
"Perhaps this is 'being a mother means being strong'!"
He thought in his mind and had to admit that what she said was right, and he should indeed take responsibility.
No matter whether Carol's fate has been interfered with by Monroe, no matter whether her thoughts have been tampered with... she has a high-level soul and source of quality as a guarantee, and her memory and emotions will definitely be fine - no matter how much
Hesitation means indecision rather than careful thinking.
Maybe there is also a personality from my "past life" that makes me afraid to face this relationship head-on?
While thinking, he gradually clarified his thoughts, then sat upright, faced Ursula's gaze, and responded calmly:
"That's really my problem."
"But please rest assured, Auntie, I have no intention of playing with Carol's feelings, and I will definitely make my attitude clear to her as soon as possible."
What he said was so sincere that Ursula finally withdrew her oppressive gaze and did not press him further to express his position. Instead, she answered politely but without emotion:
"Okay, I believe you."
As far as she was concerned, whatever attitude Gray Lint gave would be fine.
If he is sincere and affectionate, then of course everyone will be happy. Even if he is reluctant to let go, it is his own business and has nothing to do with the two of them; if he does not have that intention, or has not given up his concerns, and chooses to express his refusal and decisively distance himself from Ka.
Luo'er, although that daughter will inevitably be sad and miserable for a while, it's better than sinking deeper and deeper into a situation where she can't extricate herself in the end!
After saying that, she nodded, looked at the door in the direction where Carol left, and made arrangements for herself:
"The relationship between Bernadette and I is not just friendship, but she owed me a favor... So although you have some disagreements with her, there is no need to worry about going to sea on the Cattleya ship. I will help you arrange it.
Okay, just go to the port of Gallia and take a boat in two days, and she will send someone to pick you up."
"Say goodbye to the baby for me and tell her not to miss me too much. I will stay in Trier in the near future and wait for news from you."
Grayling nodded, his lips moved, and he didn't say anything to persuade him - he is the owner of this castle, and he is the guest! It would be too presumptuous and embarrassing for a guest to ask to persuade his host to stay.
…………
After watching Ursula disappear strangely in some unknown way, Graylingt relied on his soul as the "Master of Order" to vaguely realize that there was something about "space" and something about "space" here.
The natural rules of "location" seem to be a little abnormal.
However, limited by the sequence level and the strength of the spirit body, he could not understand it more clearly, so he had to shake his head and not delve deeper.
After passing through the two doors, he arrived at the outermost floor of the entire study, which was the room where the owner of the castle discussed matters with his guests. There was a coffee table in the middle and sofas on the left and right. The structure was basically the same as that of the reception room.
Here, Carol is leaning on the sofa, supporting her head with one hand, her eyelids closed, maybe asleep.
While thinking about his promise to Ursula, Gray Lint approached him and planned to take her back to the room... What he didn't expect was that even though Carol was at her own home, she was very relaxed and already very familiar with him.
, and she didn’t have any bad intentions... Under so many influences, after he got close to a certain distance, she still touched her inspiration.
The girl suddenly opened her eyes and saw his face close at hand, so she suddenly woke up, no longer feeling sleepy, her delicate little face turned red, and she muttered:
"You, what are you doing?"
Gray Linte did not feel guilty, but he still looked away unreasonably and without confidence, trying his best to pretend as if nothing had happened:
"It's nothing, I want to take you back to your room to sleep."
"By the way, Auntie has left here."
"Yeah?"
Carol nodded, not surprised. Ever since she could remember, her mother was not at home most of the time. However, she would contact her mother through prayer rituals early on, and her mother often sent various avatars back.
It didn't make her feel lonely either.
"Did she ask you to bring me anything?"
Yes, the topic was changed successfully!
Gray Linte nodded and replied:
"She told you not to worry too much. She also said that she would stay in Trier in the near future and wait for news about us."
Staying in Trier? That would be no problem... For Amon's enemies, Amon's "everywhere" is an extremely strong fear, but for Carol, her mother can always
In response to her prayers, the Worm of Time would often be sent to look after her house, which turned out to be the best companionship.
The shame dissipated, the girl covered her mouth and yawned, and asked without paying much attention:
"By the way, what does she want from you? She actually went out of her way to hide it from me."
This...how should I say this?
Encourage me to confess my love to you as soon as possible? Or force me to cut off the ambiguous relationship with you directly?
Gray Linte scratched his head and chose to joke:
"It's nothing. She knows that my mother is from Intis and feels very close to her, so she asked me if I have a fiancée or lover and wants to introduce one to me!"
Hearing this, Carol of course gave him a blank look.
She has never heard of her mother taking the initiative to care about other people's family affairs, let alone being keen on matchmaking... It must be that she and Gray Lint have reached some tacit understanding, and they both don't want to tell her certain things...
...Maybe it has something to do with high sequence!
But now that Gray Linte started talking nonsense, she answered casually:
"Then what? What do you say?"
The two of them chatted and walked back to the living room.
"I told her that I had a girlfriend, and then she was very sorry and said things like, 'Then my baby is really unlucky that I didn't get to know you earlier'..."
"Stop, stop, stop, stop!"
Hearing him talk more and more outrageously, Carol's previously suppressed shame returned to her cheeks. She stopped drinking in a panic. She looked at both sides and saw that the servants were doing their own things and did not hear Grayling.
The special Hu Kan felt a little at ease now, and he said coquettishly and shyly:
"I've never seen anyone as shameless as you!"
"You are still a noble of Loen, don't you care about your etiquette and cultivation at all?"
Gray Lint had already made up his mind, and he also understood the girl's thoughts, so he had a lot less scruples in his actions and words. It doesn't matter if he is a rogue, or if he is free and uninhibited... He curled his lips, and naturally
said:
"Politeness is reserved for outsiders."
Outsider...so I am not an outsider!
Self-strengthening is the most deadly. Carol blinked her eyes, her heart seemed to be filled with something sweeter than honey, and it would overflow and completely occupy her reason.
