The protagonist is always seen

Caesar's love for Ariel is very superficial, just like women's love for beautiful jewelry.

It may be a little more superficial than this, Caesar has always had an attitude of appreciating beautiful things from a distance, and he has discovered that most things in this world have a vain and gorgeous appearance.

Once you take a closer look, you will find that it is actually ugly under the gorgeous skin.

He has always been sensitive, not only in people's hearts.

He didn't think Ariel was an exception.

Normally, he would keep in mind the moment Ariel stared down his eyes. Perhaps when he was old, in a certain afternoon, he would pick up the paintbrush to reproduce the stunning beauty, and then tell those greedy The aristocrats, such a beauty grew up in the border town, and withered there, smiling at their regret.

He deluded himself to stay just to find a reason for himself to stay and miss this holiday with his family.

In this way, in Kerry's view, he missed the dinner with his family absurdly because he was blinded by beauty, instead of avoiding this time in embarrassment.

Kerry is the child of his father's knights and also Caesar's playmate. Caesar has no doubts about his loyalty in other respects, and is willing to discuss with him, but it is absolutely impossible for him to show his ridiculous weakness of heart.

It is already very pitiful to be abandoned, but he still vaguely longs for the love and affection of the person who abandoned him. This is just like a stupid dog. After being kicked by someone, he will hide in the corner despondently. As long as you wave your hand, Just like a dog wagging its tail happily.

In five years, he has grown from a child to now being able to marry a wife and have children. He is as tall as his father and brother in his impression, and five years is enough to erase their impression in his heart.

The only thing he clearly remembered was the image of his mother. She had tears in her eyes, but she pushed him into the carriage without hesitation. He stared at her for a long time, until the carriage was too far away to see the figure standing there.

He opened the window blankly and looked into the distance, not knowing whether he should hate or love.

At the beginning, the letters from home came once a month, then once every six months, until later, there were no more letters.

Caesar never replied to a single letter, but he kept every letter from home carefully and read it over and over again.

He was abandoned.

Sometimes he hates himself, and wants to take revenge regardless of his viciousness, but when he wakes up the next day, he smiles and kisses the hands of noble ladies, praising their beauty, in order to gain a little preference, so that he can make himself Being able to turn around among the ministers allowed the glory and glory of the Ou family to continue.

So that their family can live in Ailuo City safely.

Sometimes he would think of what the servants had said to him, they said, young master, madam favors you, Caesar had no doubts about this at that time, so even though he hadn???t received his father???s praise, he didn???t complain, he was very Know how to be satisfied, the perfection in this world is always rare.

But now he often wonders, has he really been loved by anyone?

Does she really love him the most?

He is no longer a child who is young and easy to deceive. He knows that when a person gives you honey, it may not be because he likes you, but it may also be because he hates you.

Obvious.

She was his only loving mother, but he was not her only child.

And a mother's love is limited, she first distributed them to her husband and the first few children, and finally it was his turn.

It's so unfair, he loved her the most at that time, he thought so, and he was relieved, and now he is the same, both of them are fair.

It is true that he will still be soft-hearted towards his family and will not draw his weapon against his family, but he has already learned to protect himself, he no longer gives his love casually, and puts up his spikes like a hedgehog.

When he was young, he was unsuspecting, like a soft little life without a clam shell, but he fell all over his body with bruises. Now he has learned to move forward with a hard shell on his back.

He weighs everyone's value, decides his attitude towards everyone, and is even more stingy when it comes to giving love.

Caesar must first feel the love of the other party before carefully delivering his own love.

How could such a man be absurdly tempted by a person's appearance?

Caesar is sure that if he falls in love with someone, it can only be that the other party loves him badly first.

He thought he had grown, but he was still too young to know that love was not something that could be measured.

Ariel was not very enthusiastic towards Caesar, and he was even a bit indifferent compared to Caesar's enthusiasm.

And Caesar is not in a hurry, or this is what he really wants, the more time it takes, the better, and he can go back to the capital directly.

Kerry was very anxious, and he tried to persuade Caesar to go back several times.

"Caesar???"

As soon as he opened his mouth, Caesar interrupted him.

Like every gentleman who sees the person he likes, he doesn't miss any opportunity to show off his feathers.

If you want to please a person, this is not the best policy, but what he wants is such an effect that can be seen at a glance.

"Ariel, do you know? The most beautiful flowers are not the roses in the vase by your side, nor the precious flowers in the garden of the king's capital. The most beautiful flowers grow in the abyss, on the soil that has been watered by blood for thousands of years, Suddenly, without warning, large areas of flowers will grow, and after a day and night of vigorous blooming, they will all disappear."

Sure enough, Ariel looked over, he was very interested.

Caesar continued on.

"They said it was because the master of the abyss passed by there. They all said that it was a flower of darkness, which was ominous, but if I had such a flower, I would give it to you."

Ariel just laughed, he was not as angry as Caesar thought, even though he had already thought about what to say next - because impurity will become pure in front of you, and even darkness will surrender under your feet.

Ariel plucked a rose from the vase on the table. It still had thorns and dewdrops on its petals. It was brought by a child who always came to the grandmother's house in the early morning.

Without saying anything, he handed it to Caesar.

Caesar was obviously a little startled.

He and Ariel looked at each other, covered his face, and then burst out laughing.

Then he took the rose and put it in his chest pocket, instead of continuing to pester Ariel as Kerry thought, he was quietly in his grandmother's house, Ariel sat opposite him , a fire was burning in the fireplace.

No one spoke, because no one wanted to break the comfort of the moment.

When Caesar was young, he was troubled by fulfilling his mother's request in order to get praise. When he grew up, he spent most of his time carefully balancing various relationships. He seldom had such a situation where he didn't think about anything and just sat in a warm room. it's time.

Caesar was very happy staying in Klossy's old grandmother's house, and even Kerry stopped muttering frequently. This upright knight was very sad in the king's capital. Such a simple little The town was just what he liked.

Vaum would take them to hunt, and Ariel was surprisingly good at riding, and he loved strong horses, so his qualities that did not match his appearance were very attractive.

Vaum, oh, Vaum, Caesar doesn???t like him very much, maybe it???s better to have something to do with Ariel and him, well, it???s a lot, Caesar wants to be friends with Ariel, and Vaum has been repelling Caesar from getting closer to Ariel.

How unfair, he was just a little bad-hearted at the beginning, and then his sincerity was guarded all together.

Caesar liked Ariel, maybe not so pure at first, but from the moment he handed out the rose, he wanted to be friends with him.

Caesar noticed that Ariel handed out the rose just because he wanted to hand it out, and the rose was by his side, how simple it was, but it was just for this moment that he fell in love with Ariel crazily.

He wasn't sure if it was love, but there was no doubt that he liked Ariel, he wanted to be close to Ariel, he wanted to be friends with Ariel.

He is willing to spend a lot of energy to maintain this relationship without asking for anything in return.

The shrewd Nishizawa wanted to do something at a loss for the first time, and was uneasy, fearing that the other party would reject his first goodwill.

He even couldn't help asking Ariel during afternoon tea one day.

"We are friends, Ariel."

Ariel didn't even raise his eyes, he was reading a picture book.

"Of course it is."

He added another sentence.

"The four of us are all friends."

Kerry smiled.

Waum, who was next to him, didn't say anything, just let out a cold snort, and tentatively agreed.

Caesar nestled in the chair with peace of mind, drinking hot cocoa.

Laughed while drinking.

He said.

"Hey, I have three friends, very, very good friends."

He has never had such a concept, even with Kerry, Kerry is his knight, he has always thought so, and Ariel brought him something completely different.

Caesar was very excited, like a bird crawling out of its nest and standing on a branch, facing such a vast and beautiful world.

When had he freed himself from those past events?

Oh, from the time he took that rose, he knew for the first time that someone handed out a rose just because he wanted to give you a rose, since then.

"Kerry, what are you mumbling about?"

Kerry drives the wagon with his whip under his feet.

"I just can't figure it out, why do you want to leave suddenly?"

"Because the letter you sent at the beginning has probably arrived, and the knights who don't leave the Ou family will come to arrest people."

Caesar looked at Kerry with a half-smile, and the knight blushed.

"You know, Madame told me to???"

"I know Kerry, in fact you are my knight, I have never said this before, but from today onwards, you have to remember that you only have a duty of loyalty to me, no matter who orders it except me You, even the master of the Ou family, you have the right to refuse, and you must refuse."

"Yes, sir."

Caesar stretched his waist, his eyes had a strange look.

he said softly.

"Don't worry, we can still go this way when we go back."
