What surprised her was that the girl who had been full of resistance just now did not resist her actions at all. Instead, she turned her head away shyly and let Maria knead and caress her palm.
"Little Motou, your face is blushing~"
Nian didn't seem to have the aura of an elder at all. He just looked at Xi with a teasing look, and his laughter was free and unrestrained.
When Xi heard the whisper, he didn't say anything. He just lowered his head and remained silent for a while. Then he took a few steps forward decisively, took out the ink stick from his arms and stuffed it into the other party's seasoning.
During the process, her face was puffed up and her watery eyes were filled with grievance and shyness.
"Woo..."
"Hey, hey, no, I still want to eat!"
When Nian saw this scene, he immediately protested with righteous words.
But unfortunately, the wronged Xi didn't want to listen to Nian's words at all. She just squatted on the ground with her hands on her knees, looking pitiful.
Nian looked at the condiment he had just taken a bite of with regret, put it aside helplessly, and then looked at Maria.
"Xi, my sister."
She gave a brief introduction.
"Hmm..." Maria hesitated for a few seconds, nodded, then walked in front of the girl and gently spread out her hands.
"Maria."
She bent down and spoke softly to the girl, her gray eyes gazing at her silently.
"……I know."
Xi still maintained her usual arrogant attitude. After muttering a few words, she did not resist and gently placed her hand on Maria's palm, and was then pulled up by her.
And Nian, who was standing by, was marveling at the sight.
You know, Xi is the youngest among the twelve siblings in the Sui family, and everyone dotes on her.
Even when the eldest brother wanted to get Xi up to do some boxing and exercise, Xi just gave him a drawn dummy.
But even so, the eldest brother didn't say anything. He just had no choice but to take Xi to train even though he knew the painting was fake, hoping that Xi could be influenced.
Although due to various reasons, the eldest brother accidentally punched the painting to pieces, which made Xi mistakenly believe that the eldest brother would also punch him to pieces and made him even more afraid to go out.
But from their various actions, we can also see that other people in the family dote on Xi.
This also contributed to Xi's awkward temper to some extent.
But what she didn't expect was that Xi would be so obedient in front of Maria...
The last person who could make her so obedient was Sister Shu...
It seems that there may be one more person in this world who can cure Xi.
Chapter 93: The Value of Terra Succubus
The appearance of the fugitive Princess Xi was just a simple episode, and it was over after a few jokes.
Soon, several people sat together again and started eating hot pot.
Of course, although we said we were eating hot pot, in reality, only Xingxiong and Nian were on the spicy side. Maria and Xi were not very good at spicy food, so they ate lighter food.
But unfortunately, in the dictionary of the year, hot pot seems to have only one taste.
To the extent that, the two of them had to prepare a special bowl to hold clean water to filter out the spiciness.
It’s just that this way of eating seems extremely awkward under Nian’s gaze.
Eat if you can, and sit at the same table with your kids if you can’t!
Oh...you are already sitting at the same table with Xi?
That's fine.
After eating and drinking for a few more rounds, Nian looked at Maria again.
"So... let's continue with the previous topic, Ms. Maria. What kind of weapon do you want to forge?"
"Is it a weapon that truly suits me, or is it just a temporary weapon?"
After confirming that Xi and Maria did have some kind of relationship that she completely didn't understand, she also started to care about the person who forged weapons for Maria.
At least, in Nian's eyes, this woman named Maria was half a member of the Nian family.
If there is anything good for our own people, they will definitely give it up.
But... when it comes to forging weapons, it's hard to say what kind of weapons they are forging.
But then again, although Xi is the youngest in the Sui family, unexpectedly, she was the first one to be found.
I don’t know what other people will think when they know about this.
"If possible, I hope to have one that I can use for a long time..."
After hearing Nian's question, Maria just lowered her head a few times and made her own judgment.
What she needed was a real weapon, not some temporary hindrance.
After all, Maria wanted weapons to prepare for future battles with some giant beasts, not to deal with ordinary people who she could blow up with her bare hands.
When fighting against behemoths, the requirements for weapons are obviously more than one level higher.
Moreover, the intensity of the battle is by no means comparable to fighting with humans.
If she just made some random weapons for the sake of speed... then it would actually be no different from her fighting with her bare hands.
Totally unnecessary.
So, after Nian asked the question, she quickly made her own decision.
If you want to do it, be well equipped!
After hearing Maria's answer, Nian also raised his eyebrows.
"If you want to forge a weapon that suits you, it will take a long time~"
It can be seen that Maria's physical fitness is far beyond that of ordinary people.
Even from the simple collaboration with Reunion before, she could sense that Maria's seemingly slender body contained a strength that was no less than hers.
You know, as a part of the year, the power you possess is far beyond what ordinary people can compare to!
But even so, when facing Maria, I still felt a little uncertain.
She wasn't sure if she could win against Maria.
And wanting to forge weapons for such a person...even for her, it was a bit stressful.
"It's okay, I don't lack that time."
Maria continued to speak, her words were quite relaxed.
Nian, who was standing by, stared at Maria for a few seconds and then suddenly laughed.
"Very confident, Miss Maria?"
"Ok?"
"It's okay... just leave it to me for the weapon forging!" Nian boldly patted his not-so-full chest and said confidently, "I promise to make you the most suitable weapon!"
"Excuse me, Miss Nian."
Maria nodded and expressed her gratitude.
Of course, Maria had no idea whether Nian took Nian's thanks to heart.
She could only see Nian nodding in agreement and then starting a drinking contest with Xingxiong beside him.
If it were in the past, Maria might have also gotten involved.
But now...
In silence, Maria turned her head and looked at Xi who had been staring at her since before.
After seeing Maria's gaze shifted to her, the gentle girl turned her head away, not wanting to meet Maria's gaze.
"What's wrong?"
The feeling that Xi brings to Maria is also very unique.
Different from Texas's expression which was so subtle that it was a little strange, Xi almost had the expression "I knew you before" written on his face.
But like Texas, she was hesitant and unwilling to speak about many things in the past.
The difference is that Texas didn't have the chance to speak, and Xi obviously didn't want to speak.
Maria couldn't think of any solution to this problem.
After all, I don’t really know the other person at this stage.
After taking a sip of the stimulating drink, she hesitated and asked.
"Can you tell me about the past?"
Maria's voice was very soft, and her cold words were close to Xi's ear. The slightly cool air stimulated Xi's whole body to shiver.
She glared at Maria fiercely, but still refused to say anything. She just held the cup with both hands, turned her head and curled her lips to express her resistance.
Just like a child.
Maria was silent for a while, then shook her head helplessly.
"You know me from the past, right?"
"..."
"But I don't actually remember you."
"...It's nothing. You've always been like this anyway."
Hearing Maria's words, Xi pursed his lips again for a moment, and glanced at Maria with his lowered eyes, revealing a strong sense of complaint.
"You always walk with them and never look back at me...it's always been like this."
"..."
After hearing Xi's words, Maria hesitated for a moment.
She felt that Xi in front of her might have misunderstood her words.
But before Maria could explain, Xi had already stood up.
"Eh? What's wrong?"
Nian, who was standing by, also felt that Xi's behavior was a little strange.
But Xi just spoke coldly.
"gone back."
"You're going back now? Don't you want to chat more? I was just about to tell you that I used firecrackers on you before..."
Before Nian could finish his words, the shy Xi had already grabbed a strange creature and squeezed Nian's face.
"Don't say it!"
Xi fought back vigorously.
Nian, who was standing aside, easily threw Ah Yao aside, watched him roll pitifully on the spot, and looked around with a confused look on his face.
Who am I? Where am I?
After seeing Xi, it also flapped its legs and ran towards the other party.
"If you don't want to say it, then don't say it. Why are you angry~"
Nian still looked indifferent, with a smiling face as if he didn't hear Xi's words at all.
And Xi was too lazy to argue with her.
After a moment of silence, he turned and walked towards the mirror.
But before leaving, she hesitated.
"Is there anything else you want to say?"
Maria was considerate enough to notice her hesitation and gently asked her question.
