NOVEL WEB Chapter 278
Chapter 278: Don’t offend the smart and precocious little girl.
Leonard really regretted that he had to say something like that, which offended Gabri.
In his previous life, Leonard heard a saying that when traveling in the world, you should never offend three types of people: the elderly, children and women. Luckily for Gabrielle, she’s a little girl and she takes advantage of both at once.
This little girl looks innocent and cute, but in fact she has a lot of clever ideas. In order to retaliate against Leonard for saying”you should call her aunt”, she gave Fleur some ideas to torture herself.
Leonard, who had no choice but to be questioned by Fleur, looked at Rehearn, who was covering his face and snickering, trying to ask for help. However, the man didn’t even see him, and his neck was almost twisted out of the window.
Obviously this person can’t be counted on. If you want to pass this level, you still have to look at yourself. But where can he go to prepare a suitable gift for this temporary eldest niece?
Just when Leonard was distressed, Crodia stood up and hurried upstairs. After a while, under the gaze of everyone, she took down several books wrapped together.
Crotia handed the books to Leonard and looked like she was waiting for a compliment.
Leonard looked at the book in his hand and then remembered that it was the”textbook” he had bought in advance. A complete set of Gilderoy Lockhart’s books except the latest”Magical Me”.
As the author of the best-selling book and one of Britain’s most beloved wizards, Gilderoy Lockhart, there couldn’t be a more fitting gift.
”How did you remember this set of books?”
Leonard asked softly.
”If it was a book that Leonard liked, he would definitely read it as soon as he bought it, and he would never leave it aside without moving.”
Claudia said obediently
”I remember these books. I saw them when Midgard took me shopping. Many people bought them. They are most suitable as gifts.”
”Little Crodia is just smart.”
Leonard praised with a smile, and then placed the set of books in front of Fleur.
”Ah, I happen to have some good books here. My eldest niece can read them if she doesn’t mind.”
Leonard said old-fashionedly. Fleur looked at the book in front of her and wanted to find fault with it. However, as Flourish Blossom Bookstore sells books in sets that can be given as gifts, the packaging is not only strong, but also very beautiful, so there is no fault at all.
”Then thank you···Uncle Leonard.”
Fu Rong said through gritted teeth.
”cough···You’re welcome.”
Leonard didn’t dare to continue his oral pleasure. After all, it seemed that this old man Rehearn didn’t look majestic and couldn’t control his daughter, which made him unable to guarantee his oral pleasure.
However, Fleur was dealt with., Gabrielle next to her is still not calmed down.
It was this little guy who encouraged Fleur to ask for a gift just now. In terms of brains, Fleur seems to be inferior to her sister. At this time, Gabrielle’s expression was not good-looking, and she looked sinister. A doll in a horror story.
Seeing that Gabrielle seemed to have something to say, Leonard quickly pushed out Crodia and said
”Gabrielle, go play with your little sister. If you are interested, you can go to the farm and have a look.”
In order to prevent this person from making trouble again, Leonard took the initiative to ask for peace, and brought the”aunt” he just said to Gabri. After hearing this, Gabri’s face actually improved, and she took Crodia and ran away. go out
”It’s still a bit unsafe for two children to play outside, so I’ll go take a look.”
Mrs. Delacour looked worriedly at the two little girls holding hands and going out, and quickly stood up and
said
”Well, that’s right, there are not many people around here and it’s really not safe. Fleur, go take a look with your mother and keep an eye on your sister.”
Rehearn said.
Fleur stood up reluctantly and glared at Leonard before leaving.
Leonard smiled back. The cheap niece in front of her was too weak to fight. She was not as good as Gabriel., it was quite fun to tease. Fleur and Mrs. Delacour left. There was silence in the living room for a long time, and Leonard spoke.
”Tell me, brother, you must have something to say by sending them all away at this time, right?”
Leonard said as he leaned on the sofa. Leonard’s words of”old brother” made Ray Hearne’s expression subtle. He didn’t expect Leonard to enter the role so quickly.
But it didn’t matter, he was the one who brought it up anyway.
But Before Rehearn could speak, Leonard came over mysteriously and said
”But brother, please be patient, I’m not an adult yet, so don’t go too far with our topic.”
As he said this, he winked at Rehearn, with an expression like a wretched uncle discussing beautiful women.
Rehearn was stunned for two seconds, and then suddenly reacted and said in a dumbfounded voice.
”Do I deserve to have such a conversation with you, a minor? By the way, who did you learn your expression from? It’s too······Isn’t it unsightly?”
If they are normal brothers, they will only talk about women after leaving the woman. But Leonard is a minor, and he, Ray Hearn, can’t talk about women with Leonard no matter how careless he is, right?
”that’s not important.”
Leonard immediately put away his expression and said lazily.
”So what are you going to talk about?”
”It’s still about the raven.”
Rehearn suppressed his smile and said seriously.
Write it down to talk about business, and there shouldn’t be any playful smiles or anything like that.
”Raven? Didn’t we just talk about it?”
Leonard said
”That was about me and the raven, now it’s time to talk about you and the raven.” said Rehearne.
”You’ve probably never heard of Ravens before, so why are you suddenly obsessed with information about them?”
”I’m just curious. As a twelve-year-old kid, isn’t it normal for me to care about such a mysterious and handsome organization?”
Leonard spread his hands……
”I don’t think it’s like that, if you really just envy a teenager of a mysterious organization, your questions should revolve around its size, its strength, and the things it has done, rather than asking about what the Third Senate President said.”
Rehearn shook his head.
”I watched that person named Moen explode. I don’t believe that you who have done all kinds of things would care about an organization that has nothing to do with you. There must be something that forces you to pay attention to them, such as you or someone you know. their goals.”
Leonard smiled
”so?”
”So are you also a blood wizard? Otherwise, there is no way to explain how your magic level is able to control an adult wizard with the Imperius Curse, nor to explain what happened with that explosion.” said Rehearne.
”I think we should be allies on the same front”
”Well, so to speak.”
Leonard nodded.
”I did come to them because of the blood wizard thing. I met one first, killed him and then followed the clues to find you, but so what?”
”This means that our alliance is more reliable, after all, neither of us wants to be forced to join that Raven organization, right?”
Rehearn smiled and stretched out his hand.
”Let’s get to know each other again, as mother grasshoppers tied to the same rope”
”I don’t really like this metaphor.”
Leonard stretched out his hand helplessly
”But you are right, we did have such a relationship when facing the Raven.”
