The cold-faced earl doesn't want to trigger the plot

So, to sum it up.It was precisely because both sides were inconsistent and misjudged each other that this beautiful misunderstanding appeared.

"Can I play a song?"

After figuring out the reason, he was thankful that he hadn't shown his timidity, otherwise he might be Riber who had to show off his talent now, and asked aloud.

But Siesta nodded and agreed.

Not long after, Siesta rested the violin on her shoulder.

In Riber's mansion, there are basically all kinds of musical instruments, but generally no one knows how to use them.Moreover, judging from the fact that Siesta was very satisfied with the timbre of the violin, and was even a little surprised.That violin that is about to dust in the warehouse may be very valuable.

Not long after, melodious violin music echoed in the hall on the second floor.

From Ribel's ears, Siesta's skills are still very good.At least, he couldn't imagine that Siesta was a violinist who had only transformed into a violinist in recent years after losing her beautiful voice.

But obviously, just this level does not make Riber feel amazing.

Or to put it another way, even if Riber felt amazed, it was because of the beauty of the Golden Diva.Whether she was playing the violin or something else, he didn't care.

So...even if he feels this way, in the eyes of critical audiences, he must be lacking more.

According to Riber's knowledge, the violin is one of the most mainstream musical instruments in Xinmei Kingdom.Moreover, this popularity has continued for nearly 300 years.

Then, using this kind of instrument that has been studied thoroughly, as long as the player takes it to the stage, he will be observed with a magnifying glass.He also has to compete on the same stage with the average heroine, the Silver Diva...

Ribel seemed to be able to hear despair and sadness from the sound of Siesta's piano.

It seemed that taking Nightingale Qin as her last hope was also Siesta's choice after she had no choice.

Because the skill of the violin cannot be achieved in a day or two.But the ensemble punch with the new, and already rumored, "legendary instrument" more than makes up for those flaws and blemishes.

When the performance was over, the people in the hall applauded politely.

Riber was also applauding, which meant that this "interview" was a success, and he agreed to Siesta's request.

...

Next, it was time to sign a contract with Siesta.

According to the contract, Siesta will be employed by the unnamed restaurant as a violin performer for three months.

During this period, the rich Earl will naturally not treat things like remuneration badly.And additions other than remuneration are the key to this contract.

Riber agreed to lend the nightingale piano at any time during the three-month period for Siesta's performance.Moreover, he also agreed to wait until the new batch of Nightingale pianos were completed, and give her one directly as a gift.

It was only when the contract was signed that Riber realized that as the reputation of the Nightingale Qin grew, it would become a priceless treasure.Especially when Jones, who is the only one who can make nightingale pianos, has signed an exclusive contract with the unnamed restaurant.

Of course, Riber is not thinking about making money.Instead, I feel that using this "monopoly" may further expand the influence of unknown restaurants.

After all, even the former singer of gold had to work as a worker in the restaurant in order to borrow the piano.

After signing the contract, Shesta, who had become a restaurant employee, discussed another matter with Riber.

It is hope, "borrow" Ewenna.

"This matter, as long as you can get her consent, I have no objection."

Riber said noncommittally, and then suddenly thought of a person,

"However, I think there is a performer who may be more suitable to play with you. Calculate the time, and he will come here later. So, if you don't mind, you can wait for a while."

Riber said, the figure of the very ordinary male protagonist appeared in his mind.

According to his speculation, the original plot of the diva line should be the connection between John and the silver diva through Siesta.For example, the perfect cooperation, let the silver diva get frustrated on stage or something.

Therefore, there is probably no need to worry about the degree to which John's talent matches Siesta's.

No matter how bad it is, there are still Lysa, Ewenna and him in the restaurant, these three performers.

Riber was not at all worried that he would be frustrated on stage.

Unless the Silver Diva's mouth can spit out visible sound waves or something, the nightingale piano that appeared in front of the public for the first time, Siesta's aura on the stage, and his carefully selected ensemble will definitely stand out. To a blast effect.

...

...

After receiving unexpected gains from the Golden Diva, Riber felt that the nameless restaurant should be getting better.

The curtain that had been hanging on the stage of the restaurant also had a reason to be drawn up.

And as if good things always happen together, when Riber returned to the room, another incident that had been stagnant for many days finally made progress.

That was when Riber held the dropper as usual and fed Claire.

Because apart from the freshness at the beginning, it is boring and repetitive work afterwards.Therefore, Riber fed a little carelessly this day.

And it just so happened that when Riber was most careless, the chick of the phoenix trembled and slowly opened its eyes.

In this way, the first sight of the chicks is dripping milk.

So, after a while, she let out a short cry.

...

"Uh...well, I'm sorry anyway..."

Not long after, Riber looked at the little yellow chicken on the table, rubbing its eyes with its wings, and apologized sincerely.

Claire grunted in response.Riber didn't hear clearly, but it probably said "don't mind".

It is somewhat difficult to distinguish and analyze Claire's words now.

Because, when she turned into a bird, her voice was mixed with the clear and clear bird's unique voice, and the unique baby's voice of children.Plus, Claire's way of deliberately suppressing her voice.After the combination, it becomes a non-stop purring situation.

And never thought that the first exchange after the reunion would be like this, Riber is also in a rather awkward state now.

After all, what was he going to talk to Claire about...

"Is your sister okay?" or something?

Well, anyway, drink a sip of tea first to calm down the shock.

While Riber was drinking tea, Claire finished rubbing her eyes, then bounced to the edge of the table, looking up at Riber.

Claire, chattering about something.

It seems to be some words of thanks, or it is the emotion of the rest of the life after the catastrophe, etc.

As for Riber, it can be seen that this...uh, this girl is really very happy.

In Riber's view, if he was hunted down by the organization first, then had to turn into a bird posture, and slept for many days for the rest of his life before finally waking up.

He must not be happy.

Or to put it another way, anyone's heart will be filled with negative emotions.

That's why Claire was so happy.Moreover, he also changed his usual reticent style, as if he wanted to confide all the words in his heart.

It was because Claire saw him.

To be more precise, it is the "Earl of Campret" who grew up with Claire.

And the name "Shawn" that Claire keeps calling out just represents the past and thoughts shared by Claire and "Count Campret", but has nothing to do with him.

"..."

Suddenly, Liber suddenly felt that Claire in front of him became illusory and distant.It seems to be close at hand, but no matter how you stretch your arms, you can't touch it.

And Riber also knew that this was just his illusion.

It's not so much that Claire is staying away, it's better to say that he is running away.

"Claire, I'm not the 'Shawn' you know."

When he came back to his senses, Riber had already said these words with a wry smile.

...

...

In Riber's room.

The air seemed to freeze suddenly, and the room was filled with silence.

It was Liber's sigh that broke the silence.

It wasn't until he said those words that Riber realized that he had indeed grown a lot after time travel.

When he just crossed over, if he said such words similar to "confession" half-intentionally based on the atmosphere, he would definitely be flustered and regretful.

But now, he can calmly analyze the gains and losses.

"Remember when I told you to clean up the chandelier in the room in the original mansion?"

Facing Riber's question, Claire, who seemed to be still in a state of astonishment, nodded stiffly,

"At that time, I couldn't remember anything. To put it simply, I lost all the memories of the past. As for the reason, it might be this..."

Riber removed the bandage on his neck, pointed to the strangle marks that would not heal no matter what method he used, and were still like ravines,

"So, you don't have to thank me and don't have to feel guilty about me. I didn't make the choice for anyone. Whether I betrayed the Church of Scourge or helped you, I did it for myself."

Riber thought for a while, then continued as if joking,

"I don't know if it's better to understand with your words. I don't yearn for light because I live in darkness for a long time. It's just that I was dragged into the darkness without authorization when I felt that I didn't know anything. It's inexplicable and disgusting. That's why there are those acts of resistance."

Finally, Riber added,

"Of course, I will still assist you and Melueita. The so-called, help people to the end. What's more, I am not ready to split with the family and the Church of Scourge. So, even if it is to not be labeled a traitor brand, I also need to ensure that you will no longer fall into the hands of the organization."

At this moment, Claire had completely quieted down.

Riber scratched his face, and knew that this was not something that Claire should have said when he just woke up.

But there is no way, the atmosphere is in place.

Moreover, the more these things are concealed, the harder it is to end.Especially the fact that Claire's feelings for him gradually accumulated and even deteriorated, and then it was revealed that he was actually a "fake".At that time, it might be difficult for them not to turn against each other.

So, let's make everything clear now.Even if Claire can't accept it, at least the current situation won't make their relationship worse.

If you think about it carefully, his words are still not clear enough.It might make Claire think "he just doesn't remember, he's still him" or something.

But this is also impossible.

There are some things that are really not clear and can't be said...

While Riber and Claire fell silent, Riber suddenly heard a slight "pop" sound in the room.

Following the sound, Riber realized that there was actually another listener in his room.

It was Huguang, slapping the inner wall of the Eudemons bottle vigorously.

This...

Forget it, no matter how much Huguang knows now, it is no different from before.

Rather, Hu Guang, who has always chosen to ignore him, suddenly made a move, is it considered progress?

While thinking, Claire's voice came again.

"I see..."

Her tone of voice was visibly lowered.

Riber looked at Claire's bird face, and couldn't tell for a moment whether she really accepted those words, or gave up the random acceptance under thinking.

But in short, Claire didn't make any noise, which somewhat relieved Riber.

"Since you are not Shane, let's introduce ourselves to each other again. My current name is Merian."

Claire raised her head again, her eyes were no longer bright but as calm as a lake.

And Riber heard Claire's inarticulate words, and replied very cooperatively,

"For me, I can just call Riber directly from now on. Please give me more advice from now on, 'Leilian'."

Riber said with a relieved smile.

...

Afterwards, when it was repeated for the ninth time, Riber finally heard clearly that the current name of the maid is Merian.

After solving the biggest misunderstanding, Riber found that the conversation with Claire, no, Merian, began to become more relaxed.
