[Devil Lover] Water Lotus

The London mansion of the reverse scroll family is more solemn and grand than the country house, perhaps because this is the main residence of the head Karl Heinz in the Victorian period, so everything looks grand and magnificent.

Shen Yuelan was not used to such a place. She looked at the room Reiji arranged for herself. Although he had tried his best to make this room feel as warm as when he was in a country house, the thick and gorgeous Persian carpet, and The expensive crystal chandelier on the ceiling and the thick curtains around the velvet bed made her feel a little uncomfortable.

The dinner was very sumptuous, but there were still exceptions. The mansion actually still belonged to Karl Heinz, so everyone had to abide by the etiquette rules set by him. When Shen Yuelan was reminded by the maid, she changed into a set of turquoise Wearing a dress with her hair braided into a bun, she came to the restaurant wearing high heels, only to find that everyone was also dressed in formal attire, sitting at the table with serious expressions.

"good evening."

Shen Yuelan broke the silence with a loud voice. When the young masters saw her, they couldn't help but feel a little relaxed—Karlheinz asked everyone to attend every dinner in formal attire, and a good dinner became the same as attending a parliament. They are not used to it.

In this case, Shen Yuelan, as the only woman, also has the effect of softening the atmosphere. In addition, she chose a light-colored skirt, which contrasted with the dark three-piece suit of the reverse scroll brothers.

"Good evening, Yue Lansang."

Reiji Tomaki pulled the chair away for her, and when Shen Yuelan heard him address her, the smile on the corners of her mouth widened unconsciously—when Reiji told her not to add honorifics to address him in the afternoon, she also reciprocated and hoped that he would address her by that. name.

Sure enough, his voice uttered those two words as pleasantly as reciting poetry.

"Hey, is the room satisfactory? Reiji is very nervous."

Nimaki Xiu asked suddenly, and Nimaki Reiji, who had just sat back to his original position, changed his face and tilted his head uncomfortably:

"As Yue Lansang's guest, of course I have to pay attention to her feelings."

"Huh? Is that so?"

The Reversing Ritual suddenly spoke, his emerald green eyes mischievously glanced at his second brother, and smirked:

"I don't know if you care about Yuelan sauce's spiritual feelings or physical feelings?"

After he finished speaking, he licked his lips angrily, and Reiji held his forehead with a headache:

"Courtesy man."

He was really helpless towards this younger brother who was emitting hormones all the time, and he secretly rejoiced that Shen Yuelan had long been used to the polite way of speaking, otherwise he didn't know how many misunderstandings would have been caused.

"Hey... when are you going to the circus?"

Even though he was wearing formal attire, he did not forget to hug the teddy bear and talked. He looked at the second brother expectantly, as if he could cry in seconds if he didn't give him an answer.

He really can do it.

And Reiji Tomaki knew this very clearly, and said calmly:

"You can go tomorrow, there just happens to be an afternoon session."

"Really? That's nice... Reiji, you're such a nice person."

The reverse scroll player sighed contentedly, and handed out a good person card to his brother by the way.

"Pfft-"

Shen Yuelan was amused, thought for a while, and joined the ranks of issuing good person cards:

"Reiji is really a good person, gentle and reliable."

"You are so generous."

Ni Juanxiu glanced at her lightly, with a meaningful smile on the corner of his mouth, and Shen Yuelan met his gaze calmly:

"It's better to be more reliable than you."

"...drink your bar."

Niimu Xiu suddenly wanted to take a bite of Shen Yuelan, but thinking that she was now labeled as Niimu Reiji, in order to prevent his possessive second brother from breaking out in the universe and letting go of all the troubles of ordinary things, he still didn't really Bite her, but use the wine she has on hand as a step.

Seeing this back and forth, Reiji Nimaki felt a little displeased. He sat in the main seat, raised the wine glass in his hand, and delivered a speech:

"To Karl Heinz."

"To Karl Heinz."

The Nijuan brothers picked up the wine in their hands and followed him, and Shen Yuelan also toasted kindly, and then the dinner officially began.

After dinner, Shen Yuelan went for a walk in the garden according to her own habits. She had just changed into a pair of flat shoes and was about to go out when she heard Reiji's voice from behind:

"Wait a minute, Yue Lansang."

Shen Yuelan turned around and said:

"Just call me Yuelan."

She was indeed not used to the honorifics Reiji Somaki added after her name.The second young master pushed his glasses, nodded, walked to her side, and asked casually:

"Going for a walk?"

"Well, yes."

"I'll accompany you."

Nimaki Reiji said almost subconsciously, Shen Yuelan glanced at him in surprise, relieved:

"Okay."

In fact, only Reiji Nimaki knew how anxiously he was waiting for Shen Yuelan's answer. He vaguely understood the meaning of his affection for Shen Yuelan, and on the other hand, he was troubled by Shen Yuelan's human identity .After all this, he decided to have a talk with her after opening the lecture.

So the gentleman stretched out his arm towards Shen Yuelan, and the girl was in a daze, as if recalling another scene that seemed to have happened before, she stretched out her hand and took Reiji's arm, and the two seemed like a perfect match To Biren.

Seeing this scene, the housekeeper of the mansion silently took it to heart, and planned to tell the Patriarch in the next routine report that the Second Young Master had a crush.

The garden of this mansion is a very typical English garden. The layout is divided into squares, opened in the middle, from outside to inside, from big to small, creating a labyrinth style. The arch at the entrance is wrapped with white roses. , as soon as you enter the garden, you will see red roses everywhere.

Shen Yuelan held Niimian Reiji's arm quietly and said nothing all the way, perhaps because both of them were thinking about their own concerns.

The garden under the moonlight is very beautiful, the flowers are only as high as the waist of the two, and walking slowly along the route of the maze has a special flavor.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Reiji Tomaki finally spoke:

"Are you satisfied with this mansion?"

He led Shen Yuelan to the middle of the garden, and saw the white bench. He guided Shen Yuelan to sit down, and then stood quietly waiting for her answer.

The girl thought for a while and replied:

"I still prefer Sussex."

It was the country house she was talking about.Reiji Tomaki had already expected this answer, he pondered for a while, and sat beside her after obtaining her consent:

"Our ancestors came from Romania and moved all the way to Germany."

He began to tell Shen Yuelan about the family history of the Nijuan family without haste:

"Since my grandfather's generation, our base has been in Munich, Germany. The surname Reverse Scroll was just a new one after my father moved to Japan. My father's full name is Karlheinz von Altenberg .”

After Reiji Tomaki finished speaking, he was surprised to hear Shen Yuelan pronounce the name in pure German:

"Karlheinz. von. Altenburg."

He turned to look at her unexpectedly, only to see Shen Yuelan raise a smile:

"Can you tell me your real name?"

Her black eyes looked at him seriously, so that Reiji Tomaki didn't dare to look at her for a moment.

After a long time, he said in a low voice:

"Friedrich."

"Friedrich... Friedrich... so nice."

Shen Yuelan repeated it several times, and then continued to ask with interest:

"And what about the original names of the other young masters? Can you tell me, Master Friedrich?"

Her bright eyes only had sincerity, and Reiji felt a sense of relaxation in his heart, so he also moved the conversation in a relaxed direction:

"Shu's name is Thomas, Aya's name is Jacob, Rei's name is Seifert, Zou's name is Rudolph, and Subaru's name is Ulrich."

After listening, Shen Yuelan commented one by one:

"Generally the eldest son would be named Thomas; the temperament of Master Lingren is very similar to Jacob, with a child-like nature; the image of Master Liren really fits Seifert's feelings; Master Zuoren does have a younger brother." The aura of a prince; and Master Subaru...is not suitable. Sure enough, the name of Master Reiji is the most suitable for my temperament, maybe this is the legendary person who lives up to his name?"

After Shen Yuelan finished speaking, she turned her head to seek Liansi's opinion, but the young man froze for a moment before nodding:

"Thank you for the compliment."

The brighter the moonlight, Shen Yuelan could see his reddish face.

As a result, the two were speechless again and fell into silence again, but it was not too embarrassing.

After a while, Reiji Somaki suddenly asked:

"Would you like to be Mistress of Sussex?"

"I?"

Shen Yuelan said in surprise, and seeing that Lian Si didn't seem to have finished laughing, she pondered for a while before answering:

"Perhaps willingly."

Such a life is indeed very satisfying, and her wish is nothing more than stability and happiness.

Reiji Torimaki got the answer he wanted, and when he was satisfied, he stood up and invited Shen Yuelan for a walk again.

When the two returned to the villa together, at the moment they entered the door, Reiji Somaki suddenly said to her:

"If it's convenient, please come to the lobby at nine o'clock tomorrow night."

Shen Yuelan looked at his serious face, and almost subconsciously nodded in agreement.

The corner of Reiji Torimaki's mouth suddenly raised a little inaudibly, and then he personally sent her back to the room.

When he turned from her room to the second floor, he saw Tijuanxiu who was leaning on the pillar. He stopped and asked:

"what's up?"

The two brothers stood facing each other, one in a casual posture and the other in an elegant posture. Ni Juanxiu stretched his waist and stood up straight, smiling meaningfully at him:

"Have you decided it's her?"

He didn't make it clear, but Reiji Tomaki understood what he was asking: For them who have a long life, choosing a partner is a very cautious thing. Of course, if you are a powerful vampire, of course you can choose more than one A partner, just like Karl Heinz, but for Reiji Tomaki, who has been taught strictly since he was a child to be somewhat human-like in spirit and certain values, his partner must be the only one.

Reiji Toimaki lowered his head slightly, and took his eyes down. The most attractive eyes among the six brothers were exposed to the air at this moment. Looking at those jewel-like eyes, Osamu Namaki couldn't help admiring:

"Actually, you are the descendant with the most perfect appearance in the Ortenberg family. Do you remember that your grandfather's eyes are also like this."

Osamu Namaki and Reiji Tomaki, or Thomas and Friedrich, because they are the eldest son and the second son, were very concerned by Karlheinz from the beginning of their birth, and of course, by their grandfather Lester Altenberg Therefore, these two brothers went to Munich the most times among the brothers, and among them, Leicester paid more attention to Federich whose temperament and behavior truly met all the requirements of the nobility.

So Karlheinz valued Reiji Tomaki, in addition to his ability and his appearance, partly because his father also valued him.

Although his father had long since resigned as the head of the family, his prestige still remained. Although Karlheinz had thought about letting the child of the woman he liked replace him, he was really capable if he couldn't stand Friedrich.

Over time, Karlheinz also felt that his second son was the most outstanding one.

Since the eldest son has no intention of being the head of the family, the younger son has no such intentions, and the triplet sons have always avoided this problem because of their mother, so he started planning for the second son to succeed the head of the family a few years ago .

And the only one who knew about this was Reverse Scroll Xiu who was told from the beginning.

"Friedrich."

Nimaki suddenly called out this name, Nimaki Reiji was stunned, and looked at him subconsciously, but saw Nimaki's rare and serious face:

"Friedrich Altenberg, have you really decided to choose Shen Yuelan as your partner?"

Time seemed to be stopped, and the purple-haired youth only felt that he was being squeezed mentally, so he had to close his eyes to calm down.

After a long time, when he opened his eyes again, Ni Juanxiu saw a pair of firm eyes. At the same time, he heard his brother's cold but alluring voice saying:

"I'm sure it's her."

So Reverse Scroll smiled:

"She's a good fit."

He returned to his usual idleness, and when he turned around, he waved to Reiji:

"You are a good match."

When his figure disappeared at the end of the corridor, Reiji Tomaki put on his glasses to cover those beautiful eyes.

The author has something to say: continue the Jane Austen style. .

Then, I started to take the Reiji line here. VV knows that many children can't let Hao go, so after finishing the Reiji line, if conditions permit, they will take the Hao line. . .

That's it. . .As for the others, VV didn't consider it.
