Originally, Jiang Qi didn’t want to behave so gaffe in front of Leana, but the lethality of this cup of coffee was too strong, and the slightly hot temperature just made the bitterness infinitely amplified, so that he had the illusion that he was drinking a high concentration of huanglian juice.

“Poof… You, are you okay, Mr. Jiang Qi…”

Although he was trying to hide it, looking at Jiang Qi’s somewhat funny appearance at the moment, he couldn’t help but let out a slight laugh, but then quickly handed Jiang Qi a few tissues.

Taking the tissue handed by the other party, looking at Leana’s smile at the moment, Jiang Qi’s heart did not seem to be so angry, at least Leanna had begun to try to accept herself, and was not as repulsive as at the beginning.

This breakfast lasted for a long time, not that the two of them had eaten for a long time, but as if they had finally opened the chatterbox, Leanna put down the Valkyrie shelf and turned to say something extremely daily and trivial.

But since she was willing to take the initiative to share this with Jiang Qi, he was also willing to listen to her there.

So it wasn’t until near noon that the two of them finished their rather hearty breakfast and returned in the direction of the London branch, or to someone he really didn’t want to see.

Even if he understood that it was difficult for Otto to have any threat to his current self, as long as he thought of the face under that funny mask, he felt a faint discomfort, but after all, he was still Leana’s direct boss, and he was only a newcomer, so naturally it was difficult to say something.

To his surprise, after listening to Leanna’s report on contact with Joyce and others, instead of being angry because the two of them were too close to each other, Otto asked them in an extremely ambiguous tone, as if he was concerned about an old friend who had not met for a long time.

“Although your proposal is indeed quite generous, I think that my vacation should be considered the limit here, after all, Valkyries always have all kinds of tasks, which can be regarded as an obligation.”

Leanna shook her head slightly, it was considered that she declined the other party’s request, with her status as an S-class Valkyrie, even if it was an order, she should not waste too much time on things that had nothing to do with dealing with Honkai.

“Well, after all, this is just my personal thought, and you shouldn’t be embarrassed by this, Leana.”

Otto nodded, recognized Leanna’s statement, and whispered a few words in her ear, and Leanna also walked straight out of the house after saluting, leaving Jiang Qi alone in the room to talk to Otto.

“What about you, Mr. Jiang Qi, it sounds like you approve of the young man named Joyce very much, and you must be interested in spending more time with him. Adult beauty is also a virtue, and for me, it is nothing more than a piece of paper. ”

With the help of the mask, Jiang Qi couldn’t see Otto’s expression at the moment, if he hadn’t dealt with Otto before, he might really have been deceived by his disguised kindness.

“I don’t care, after all, I have only met them for the first time, not to the extent you said, but compared to the Mandate of Heaven, there may be many things called ‘human nature’, not a pure machine.”

Jiang Qi said coldly to Otto, because he knew that compared to Joyce, this was just a demon who was playing with others.

“Please don’t put on that expression, my friend, you will soon understand that the law of this world itself is that the strong skillfully manipulate the weak to make them willingly give everything, and it is this model that builds the skeleton of modern civilization, and individuals can never compete with the times, even the lawyers.”

Otto let out a slight sneer, as if in a pitying tone, and said softly to Jiang Qi in front of him.

“I know you, Bishop Otto, you will always just lie, you have lied to me, and now you are doing the same to Leana, using grandiose rhetoric to cover up your own self-interest, isn’t that what you are doing?”

This contemptuous and almost dismissive tone undoubtedly completely angered Jiang Qi, and his attitude towards Cecilia before that was probably the same, he couldn’t understand how this person in front of him became so cold-blooded and ruthless.

“Leana… In your eyes, she may be a delicate flower in bloom, leading people to become their heroes and bringing them the existence of hope. It’s just that what you see is only one side of her, and behind the flowers, you have never been able to see through, such as rust buried deep in the dirt. ”

Instead of being annoyed, Otto looked up in the direction of Leana’s departure, and his words seemed to be mixed with some hint, suggesting that he was not just what he seemed, but also had unknown secrets.

“She is different from people like you, she will never take the initiative to hurt others, and she will remember every comrade who was born and died with her and remember them in her heart.” She’s someone to trust, and you’re not. ”

Recalling the experience with Leana along the way, although he had not known about Leana’s life before that, Jiang Qi was willing to believe that everything she revealed was her true thoughts in her heart and the real her.
