Silver Blade and Rose

Zales called Lilian.

It was rare for him to call Lilian because of a reason that would make her angry. When he dialed, he was a little guilty, and he even said hello in a low voice.

"What's the matter baby?" Lilian asked suspiciously in the noisy environment, "I'm shopping outside, do I want to bring you something?"

Zars said quickly: "No, no, I have something to discuss with you."

With Bill not around, the pressure he had to face was much less. Lilian had always treated him as a baby, and almost never got angry with him, so Zals hesitated and said everything he wanted to say.

Including but not limited to "I have someone I like, and I want to try to date him", "I said I would be the first to tell you, so I made this call" and "Who is he? You have also met , is my boss, Mr. Edwin Owen", several "hes" who progressed step by step almost overheard Lilian.It was probably because the previous content was a bit too shocking, but at the end Edwin's name came out of his mouth, and Lilian was strangely relieved.

"...Why are you sighing?"

Obviously, he came to confess on his own initiative, but Zars was taken aback by her instead.

"No," Lily said, soothing her chest, "After hearing several bad news in a row, this last one seems to suddenly become good news."

Zales: "..."

Sometimes Lilian's brain circuits are so strange that he doesn't know how to react to her words.

Facts have proved that all the calmness was an illusion. After recovering, Lilian began to ask questions like a cannonball: "Although that Mr. Owen is as handsome as a movie star, are you serious? It's not a truth or dare punishment?"

"It's serious, I didn't play games, I called you after discussing with him." Zars answered all her questions in one breath, his mouth was quick to answer, but his heart was pounding.

He has always been a good baby since he was a child. It seems that he encountered something unacceptable to Lilian for the first time, and he felt a sense of inexplicable novelty, but this emotion only lasted for half a second, and disappeared immediately after Lilian said the next sentence .

"What to do, I always feel that you are joking, and I think that Mr. Owen is really interested in you-did you read the contract you signed last time carefully? We didn't read it carefully at the time, and we found out later that the original contract There are also a lot of hidden terms that are beneficial to you..."

"What terms?" Zars was stunned for a moment.

Lilian was also very surprised: "You really don't know? We thought we wrote this because we discussed it and coaxed us to agree."

She roughly talked about it, almost all of them were employee benefits and other terms, and the remuneration of this job in the future will suddenly be higher than before.The more Zals listened, the more puzzled he became. He didn't understand why Edwin secretly added benefits to the contract without telling him. He obviously didn't need these, and he didn't ask Edwin, but the other party did it and never followed up with it. He mentioned it.

Of course, Edwin is not short of money. The Exorcist Association has a special fund allocated to No. 179 every month, and every difficult case he solves is rewarded handsomely. Every piece of clothing that is simple but not simple is actually All expensive.Even Lilian had gossiped with him in private, saying that the coat Edwin wore the last time he went to his house was the same style worn by an actor she liked, but he looked better than the actor.

Zals thought so deeply. In fact, since he met Edwin, he never seemed to think that other people were handsome.

Lilian's phone call to come out was suddenly turned into a large question-and-answer meeting. She had a hundred unreasonable questions to ask Zals, but unfortunately Zals didn't think about it himself, so he promised her to go home another day and then slowly Talk, and then hung up the phone full of doubts.

He wanted to ask Edwin what was going on, but after thinking about it, they were just ordinary partners at that time. Why did Edwin do this, he suddenly didn't dare to ask.

It's for his own good. It's fine now. If he rejects Edwin and enjoys this gift that can be called a gift, he will definitely feel uneasy.Thinking about it this way, Edwin was ready to speak without telling him the reason in advance.

Since the other party doesn't want to put pressure on him, then he can pretend not to know for the time being.

Although he had the guts to call Lilian, but thinking that Bill would know about it immediately, Zars still chose to turn off the phone in embarrassment.He went back to the house with his mobile phone and took a look upstairs first. Seeing that the door of Edwin's room was closed, he must have gone back, so he felt relieved and went upstairs like a thief, wanting to take a look. How's the situation over there at Elvins.

He sneaked back to his room, only to find that Edwin was sitting on the only chair in the room, and Elvins, who had been assigned the task of guarding the door, had disappeared.

"Are you back?" Edwin sat on the chair and looked back at him, "Didn't you take the opportunity to sue me by calling your parents?"

He had long hands and long legs, folded his hands on his lap, stretched his legs and sat on the old wooden chair, obviously the environment was not very good, but he could still look elegant.

"...No, what do you think?"

Zals touched his nose, feeling a little guilty.

Although Edwin had promised him that he would not read minds casually, Zals was so easy to understand that everything in his mind was written on his face right now.He wanted to laugh but held back the smile, and asked with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Really, then what did you say to your mother?"

He talked on the phone for nearly 10 minutes, and he couldn't be discussing what to have for lunch today.

"It's really nothing," Zals said deliberately, not wanting him to know that he had heard about the contract from Lilian, "It's just that I haven't contacted her for a long time, so I just give her a call."

"Oh—" Edwin echoed, thinking he was kind of cute, but debunked the lame lie anyway, "Isn't it that we're dating? Then I might be a little lost."

Zars stared at him for two seconds, as if recognizing the certainty in his words, and asked suspiciously after a moment, "Did you just read minds?"

"No," said Edwin, "I promise."

"Then how do you..."

"Because you put all your thoughts on your face."

Edwin finally couldn't help laughing.

He has been smiling a lot recently, and his smiles have become less rare. However, Zals is still a little blindsided. Can be dazzled, how to go further?

He thought of things that were not suitable for thinking during the day, and his face began to burn uncontrollably. To be on the safe side, he took half a step back unobtrusively, lest his abnormality be noticed by the sharp-eyed Edwin.

But he retreated a bit too late for this half step, and before he had time to escape from the scene of the crime, he was already caught by the detective who was good at finding clues.Edwin quickly grabbed his wrist and pulled him back before he could run away.

This time he really read his mind, and Zars was so shy because he read it all clearly.

"First love, huh?" He was so strong that he couldn't refuse to pull Zars to sit on him, and asked with a smile.

Zals didn't hear what he was asking at all, and was frantically trying to get up from his lap, but Edwin didn't want him to escape, he couldn't break free at all, and finally had to find a less awkward position , with one hand propped on the back of the chair, the body half-hanging and leaning against the other side.

"Get me up," he urged in a half-embarrassed, half-embarrassed low voice, "I'm heavy and might crush you."

He had all the muscles he should have, and of course it wasn't a weight that could be easily carried, but Edwin was not an ordinary person, so this weight was nothing to him.

So he just raised his head slightly, blew on Zals' earlobe, which was already red and hot, and said in a low voice: "It's okay, just press it as you like."

With a pun, Zars' face turned even redder.
