Chapter 37
"You've had enough of that."
"Reverend…Miss?"
"Mr. Lidao has been to many places and knows a lot of etiquette. He kissed my hand because I was very interested in him. This was my request. He didn't say it was because he cared about me. Is this explanation enough?"
Barbara glanced at him coldly and sped up her movements, as if she wanted to finish the work as soon as possible.
"Pastor, are you familiar with him? He is not a good person. I can feel that he……"
"Sir! I don't want to comment on your ideas, but please don't impose your ideas on me. You've been to Liyue, so you should understand the meaning of judging others by your own standards."
Barbara's tone was completely unfriendly, and she didn't even pretend to be polite.
"But there is a saying in Liyue called"Appearance is determined by the heart", isn't it?"
Layel did not stop and continued to ask
"Is that so? Then why do you, who look kind, treat a person who shows kindness with malice? And Mr. Lidao, who looks fierce, has helped me many times very gently?"The originally kind and lovely idol pastor looked at him coldly at this moment, and then looked at Lidao softly:
"Mr. Lidao once told me that not everyone can be your friend. I didn’t understand it at the time, but I understand it now."
"But you don't know him! He is knowledgeable, kind-hearted, and even helps you. It could be a fake, right?!"
Layer seemed to not understand the atmosphere, and seemed to really think that the island was evil and wanted to pull Barbara out of the sea of suffering. His brows were knitted and he kept refuting
"Then you might be faking it, right?"
"I……"Layer's face froze.
"Then no one can be trusted."
Barbara said, secretly glancing at Lidao, and then continued to apply medicine and bandage to Rayer. She seemed to be talking to Rayer, but in fact she was talking to Lidao:
"I……"
"I actually admire Mr. Lidao."
"Mr. Lidao is very talented and considerate. Although he can be tough and messy sometimes, he is a very gentle and kind person."
"He tries very hard to change the impact of his appearance, by being funny, serious, or annoying, etc. Even though he knows that no one can satisfy everyone, and even more people will not accept him, he will still show his kindness first.……"
"He didn't complain about his fate, nor did he reject others. He just strode forward positively and sunny, constantly helping others and also helping me. I think there will always be someone who responds to his kindness and there will always be someone who needs him... just like me!"
"So, I want to be someone like Mr. Lidao!"
"……"
Layer was stunned.
As far as he knew, Lidao had only been in Mond for about a month, and he had been in the store most of the time! I haven't heard of any contact between him and Barbara? And why haven't I seen the advantages you mentioned?
Lidao's eyes were gentle:"You will do it, Miss Barbara, come and show off to me when the time comes?"
"Yeah!"
Barbara nodded vigorously after hearing Lidao's words, then turned to look at Lidao and scratched her cheek awkwardly:
"Sorry, I said a lot of weird things to you, ha, ha……"
"No, I'm honored."
"So this is ah……"Rayer suddenly seemed to be relieved,"Everyone has someone they admire, just like a brother or a teacher."
From an outsider's point of view, the performance of this uncle named Rayer from beginning to end was completely consistent with his character, Barbara's secret admirer.
The more goodwill Barbara showed to Lidao, the more excited he became, and he even made sarcastic remarks and slandered her in his words.
But when Barbara said that it was an admiration and said that she wanted to be a person like Lidao in the future, he smiled again.
Like a teacher or like a brother, it means that he is not someone you like.
Lidao nodded secretly. The other party's performance was perfect, without any flaws.
"No, more like a senior... I'm sorry, Mr. Rayer, I was rude just now. If possible, I still hope that you can be friends. Mr. Lidao is really a good person."
Barbara calmed down after speaking her mind, mainly because Rayer stopped finding faults, and the treatment and bandaging were completed.
"Of course!" Layer said loudly,"After all, he is the man that the pastor lady admires, so he must be very powerful!"
"Hello, my name is Rayer, I come from Fontaine, I am a lone adventurer, I am sorry for being so hostile to you just now, I misunderstood you."
Rayer took the initiative to extend his hand, and even enthusiastically took the hand of Lidao and waved
"It doesn't matter, misunderstandings are meant to be resolved, right?"
Li Dao was more direct, hugging Rayer with a bear hug.
His enthusiasm was totally different from the gentleman he had just been.
"Hahahaha, that's right."
Layer narrowed his eyes slightly, and Lidao pressed his wound, of course not the one that had just been bandaged, but other wounds on his body. He felt a little refreshed.
"Miss Reverend? Is he always this enthusiastic?"
"This is Mr. Lidao's way of dealing with things." Barbara just smiled and shook her head.
Seeing that Barbara was still accustomed to Lidao's transformation, Layer had a hint of fear in his eyes. He hid it very well, and even Barbara, who was looking at him, did not notice it.
""Haha, my friend, you have a great body."
Lidao patted Rayer's sturdy shoulders.
From the outside, he was a very handsome and muscular middle-aged man, with well-developed muscles but not ugly.
"Really? It’s because I’ve been adventuring everywhere. I can’t do this without the Eye of God and a strong body."
That being said, Rayel always felt that the"figure" the other party mentioned was meaningful. Looking at this man, he felt a chill.
After finishing her work, Barbara took the two of them around, and even activated a certain device, and came to a remote hut with nothing to chat.
According to her, this was her accidental discovery. When Lidao occasionally came to the church, she would come to this hut when she wanted to talk to Lidao about something.
I don't know what it is used for, but the sound insulation is very good, and you won't be discovered no matter how much you cry.
Rayel looked strange when he heard this.
As for Jizi, she was still on standby in the church, and she was about to fall asleep.
When the three of them came out of the hut again, Lidao and Rayel were already arm in arm, calling each other brothers.
Lidao even took out the wine, and the two sat on the ground and drank a lot.
Barbara naturally tried to stop it, but there was no way, she couldn't stop Lidao's mess.
Smoking is not allowed in the church. Look at Rosalia smoking outside the door. Doesn't Barbara look like she wants to control it but is helpless?
Although the bad nun opposite also looks helpless
"Jizi? Where is my little collection?"
When Lidao came to Jizi, she was already asleep.
And the Heart of God that he did not take away after he left was not next to Jizi.
"Ah, Captain? You finally came out... Don't worry, I've taken good care of everything!"
Ji Zi patted her chest, winked at Helidao, and assured him.
"Well... I hope you don't feel uncomfortable." Lidao shook his head with a smile.
"Rest assured"
"Next, I'm going to have a drink with my new friend, and I'm also going to help him with the mailing problem. Are you going to go back first? Or stay and accompany Miss Barbara?"
Lidao Rongguang, with a strong smell of alcohol, put his hand on Layer's shoulder, patted him, and gestured.
"I... I'd better go back first."
Ji Zi looked at the status of the island, and then looked at Barbara:
"Barbara has her own things to do, right?"
"I, um, sorry, that's true."
Although Barbara didn't have anything else to do next, caring about other people's feelings is also a step in learning.
"Then I'll leave first. Captain, you have to go home early tonight."
"You too, don't worry!"
