Chapter 176 Blood Queen 7
Chapter 176 Blood Queen 7
Sheng Rao had never seen such a person before, he was so frighteningly honest.
Sheng Rao didn't take it, Irene's hand still held the sparkling gem, and the two were in a stalemate.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
Erin looked at the door warily, quickly rewrapped the gem and put it away, then quietly approached behind the door, put her ear against the door, and listened carefully to the movement outside the door.
It's no wonder that Irene is so wary, because she doesn't have any relatives here, and her husband is an orphan, so no one comes to her house at all.
Seeing that no one opened the door, the person outside the door knocked again.
Erin looked outside through the crack in the door this time.
She saw a group of people wearing armor. There were quite a few of them, probably around ten.
The armored leader outside the door continued to knock on the door, and then asked: "Hello, we are here to see Miss Serafina. Is she here?"
When Irene heard this, she turned to look at Sheng Rao.
"Sela, your knights are here!"
Erin said in surprise.
Sheng Rao nodded and motioned for Irene to open the door.
The movement at the door woke Mia, who walked out of the room.
"Is sister leaving?"
Mia hugged Sheng Rao's leg very reluctantly.
Erin opened the door.
In order to avoid revealing her secret, Sheng Rao bent down and picked up Mia, and then greeted her.
"You are finally here. You have worked hard all the way. Let's rest for a while. We will set off later."
Sheng Rao said while winking with the mercenaries.
The mercenaries had received the request from the client before they came, so they immediately understood what Sheng Rao meant. They did not talk nonsense, but just nodded in response.
Erin's house was too small, and a dozen mercenaries could not squeeze into this small house.
So only Xavier, the captain, entered the house, while the others sat outside to rest.
Sheng Rao sat on a chair holding Mia, and Xavier also sat on a chair nearby.
The chair was a little short, and Xavier, who was tall, looked a little funny sitting there.
Sheng Rao looked at Xavier. This man looked young but tall. Sheng Rao estimated that he must be two meters tall.
Although he is wearing specific armor, it is not difficult to see that his muscles are strong.
The man's hair is black, but his eyes are as deep blue as the sea. The bottomless eyes seem to suck people in.
This man's appearance was indeed very ordinary, a very typical Western man's face, but Sheng Rao felt that there was always an inexplicable sense of dissonance.
"Tongzi, check to see if there is anything wrong with this man."
Sheng Rao couldn't tell it himself, so he called for a system check.
When System 413 saw that it was alive again, it was very active and the detection was completed within a short time.
"Boss, nothing unusual has been detected. His identity and background are normal."
Hearing what the system said, Sheng Rao no longer doubted anything.
At this time, Erin was busy cooking in the kitchen.
Sheng Rao was originally going to help, but Irene pushed him out of the kitchen. She said that she didn't need Sheng Rao's help.
After a while, the smell of meat came from the kitchen. This was the beef Shengrao had just bought.
Although there is a lot of pork in this era, because pork tastes bad and has a smell, most people still choose to buy beef. However, beef is not cheap. Ordinary people can only afford beef once a month.
Mia's stomach was already growling at this time.
"smell good!"
Mia sniffed her nose and sniffed vigorously in the direction of the kitchen.
Then she got off Sheng Rao's body.
Children can't resist the temptation to eat, so Mia ran into the kitchen.
At this time, there were only two people left in the room, Sheng Rao and Xavier.
Xavier stood up and made a knight's salute to Sheng Rao.
"Hello, Miss Serafina, thank you for hiring us. In the next month, our Silver Moon Mercenary Group will do our best to protect your safety."
Seeing that there was no one else around, Xavier spoke.
Xavier saw that Sheng Rao was wearing ordinary clothes, but her behavior and posture were extremely elegant and noble. He knew that the woman in front of him was not an ordinary person.
Sheng Rao looked up at Xavier: "Thank you for coming on time. The people in this family are very kind. I hope not to scare them. If you don't have an explanation, you don't need to speak."
Sheng Rao made his request.
Xavier bowed respectfully to Sheng Rao: "Of course, you are the client, and we listen to you in everything."
Sheng Rao nodded with satisfaction, then threw a bag of coins to Xavier.
"This is your reward."
Xavier opened the bag and saw that it was a bag of gold coins, but his expression did not change. He naturally put the money bag away and thanked Sheng Rao.
At this time, Eileen came out from the kitchen carrying cooked beef.
Xavier stood behind Sheng Rao naturally, as if he were a true knight of Sheng Rao.
Erin didn't notice anything unusual, and she distributed the beef soup to everyone.
The meal was finished quickly.
Sheng Rao didn't eat much. After all, her body didn't need to eat human food. Although eating too much wouldn't do any harm to her, it didn't taste like food. She didn't want to eat too much. many.
Xavier didn't eat too much. He went out after eating. He was always a little depressed standing in a small room because of his tall height.
Mia was very satisfied with this meal. She touched her round belly and rested comfortably on the chair.
Sheng Rao couldn't help but laugh, and Mia was immediately fascinated by her beautiful smile.
"Sister, you look so pretty when you smile. I wish you could stay here with me all the time."
Mia's eyes suddenly turned red as she spoke, and then she cried loudly.
A child's face is like the sky in June, it changes at any time.
Mia was very reluctant to let go of Sheng Rao. She knew that she could not keep Sheng Rao. Maddie was gone, and now even Sheng Rao had to leave. She felt very sad.
Sheng Rao walked over, touched Mia's head, and comforted her: "Don't be sad, Mia, we will meet again soon."
Mia raised her head and couldn't believe what Sheng Rao said.
"really?"
She knew that Sheng Rao was not from here, so if she said they could meet again, it was very likely not true. Although she didn't believe it, she couldn't help but ask Sheng Rao, still holding on to a glimmer of hope in her heart.
"Of course it's true. Sister will never lie to you. Sister will come back with gifts when the time comes. Mia is so cute, and sister can't bear to leave you, so sister will come back to see you."
Sheng Rao comforted Mia patiently.
Only then did Mia stop crying and hook up with Sheng Rao.
