Chapter 35 Rias' Straight Ball
At this moment, the sun was setting, and the faint afterglow of the setting sun fell on Rias's body, dyeing her with a hazy color.
Lias looked out the window quietly, her pretty face that usually had a confident and calm look, but now she looked pitiful and helpless.
Usually, Rias feels like a highly educated aristocrat, every move has a kind of majesty and elegance that matches her appearance, and people can't find any faults.
The fact is indeed true, as the heir of the Gremory family and the future duchess, Rias has lived up to her identity at all.
Shrewd and capable, well-behaved, on the big stage.
On the devil's side, Rias' reputation is also very good. Many people who know her will say with emotion that she is worthy of being the next leader of the pure blood demon noble.
However, at this moment, Rias who appeared in front of Xia Yan was not the shrewd and capable heir to the Grand Duke, but an ordinary girl caught in a heavy heart.
"Senior Rias, so you are here."
Xia Yan strode over and greeted softly.
Although the sound is not heavy, it is enough to be heard in the quiet old school building.
But on June 13th, Lias didn't seem to notice Xia Yan's voice at all, and didn't even notice Xia Yan's approaching. She just looked out of the window and was in a daze, her pupils were a little slack. In a state of desperation.
Until Xia Yan came to Rias's side, she didn't recover from the absent-minded state.
"Senior Rias, what are you thinking, so engrossed."
Xia Yan poked Rias's shoulder lightly with her fingers, and said aloud.
"ah....."
Suddenly being woken up, he let out a cute exclamation that was a bit out of character.
Even his body was a little unsteady, he grabbed a few times in mid-air in a hurry, and was supported by Xia Yan before he stabilized his body and didn't fall off the window sill.
"It's you, Xia Yan."
Rias was still in shock, her chest heaved and she lost her breath, and then let go of Xia Yan's hand.
"It's all here, why don't you go to the activity room? Instead, stay here alone in a daze?"
Xia Yan asked with a smile.
"The environment in the activity room is too stuffy."
Rias pulled out a smile and explained: "So, I just want to breathe here."
"Didn't you decorate this yourself?"
Xia Yan complained.
"It's true to say so, but sometimes the event room is really dull.
Rias said helplessly.
That dark style is the devil's preference.
It's just that during this time, Rias felt that this style was too heavy, making it hard to breathe.
"Who are you now?"
Rias looked at Xia Yan and asked.
"I'm the only one in the activity room, and it's meaningless to stay here. I'm going home.
Xia Yan replied with a smile: "It's you, you look so preoccupied."
"I heard from Senior Sister Himejima that things didn't go well when I returned to the family in those two days?"
"That fellow Akeno..."
Rias nodded helplessly and said: "It's not a big deal, I can handle it myself.
"That's easy to say."
Xia Yan shrugged and said, "However, the look on your face doesn't tell me that."
"There is a proverb that is quite suitable to describe you now."
"what?"
Rias was curious.
"The dead duck has a hard mouth.
Xia Yan said unceremoniously.
Rias's face suddenly became funny, and finally she could only sigh and said: "I'm not a dead duck, but this is my own business. If it's not a last resort, I don't want to infect you with my troubles."
"Oh."
Xia Yan nodded, turned and left
"Hey, why don't you ask?"
Seeing Xia Yan's resolutely turned back, Rias was taken aback for a moment, then said quickly.
"What can I ask?"
Xia Yan asked back.
"Sure enough, what Zhu Nai said is right, you really don't understand style.
Rias showed a helpless smile.
"I don't like to dig deep into other people's personal problems."
Xia Yan shook her head, then leaned leisurely against the wall, looked at Rias, and said with a smile: "Of course, if you want to talk, I don't mind being a listener."
Rias fell silent, and the surrounding suddenly became quiet. Under Xia Yan's gaze, Rias asked slowly: "Xia Yan, do you think you were born in a noble family, okay?"
"Looking at your expression, my answer is definitely - being born in a noble family is not necessarily a good thing sometimes.
Xia Yan said so.
"What a perfunctory answer, I want to hear your real answer.
Rias showed a helpless smile of dissatisfaction.
"At least, for most people, if they can be reborn, they will definitely choose to be born in a noble family."
Xia Yan shrugged and replied.
"And you?"
Rias asked.
"Of course I do too."
Xia Yan smiled and said: "After all, if I could really choose, I would definitely choose a family that can live comfortably, and it will save me a lot of trouble in the future."
"However, being born into an aristocratic family, generally speaking, while enjoying rights, one must assume corresponding responsibilities.
"This kind of responsibility can sometimes be very heavy."
Regarding Xia Yan's words, Rias did not refute, nodded and said: "I don't think it is a bad thing to be born in the Gremory family.
"It's better to say that I am very grateful to fate for allowing me to appear in the Gremory family, allowing me to have a family that loves me and countless honors."
"Sounds like Rias."
Xia Yan said with a smile.
Rias gave Xia Yan a coquettish look, and said, "It's just that, sometimes, I also hope that while bearing the surname Gremory, others can remember that I am still Rias."
"Good ambition."
Xia Yan exclaimed: "However, if you want to achieve it, it seems that it is not easy."
While carrying Gremory on his back, it is also necessary for outsiders to remember such a person.
In fact, it is very simple to say...
As long as you surpass the ancestors of the Gremory family, lead the Gremory family to a new peak.
In this way, it is enough for outsiders to remember Rias as a person, not just the surname Gremory.
"Yes, I have been working hard for this goal."
Rias said with a wry smile: "But sometimes, I find that the responsibilities required to bear the surname Gremory are really too difficult for me to accept."
"So what worries you these days is Gremory's responsibility?"
Xia Yan asked back.
Rias nodded silently.
"Marriage contract?"
Xia Yan asked.
"Did Junai tell you?"
Rias asked in surprise.
She had never mentioned this matter in front of Xia Yan, the only possibility was that Akeno Himejima was not tight-lipped and spoke out.
"She didn't say so."
Xia Yan shook his head and said: "However, he often pushes me to attack you in front of me.
"Combined with some previous experience, I know that the things you worry about should be about the marriage contract.
"After all, isn't marriage what noble families like most?"
"And what do you think?"
Rias suddenly asked curiously.
Xia Yan: "...
We had a good chat, did you suddenly open up?
"Xia Yan, what do you think about Zhu Nai's proposal?"
Seeing Xia Yan's silence, Rias showed an interested gaze, and was even more curious about his answer.
"Is it mine?"
Xia Yan said duplicity: "If I can help you, it's my duty. It's just taking advantage of someone's danger to attack you in this way. It's not the kind of love I imagined."
Xia Yan is a guy who doesn't care about meat and vegetables.
How can there be such noble morals.
However, Xia Yan's mind naturally knew what to say at this time.
After all, these words are based on 0.1 of Rias's character.
"yes?"
Hearing Xia Yan's words, Rias's mood obviously improved a lot.
She has a pure and beautiful future for her future partner, and she doesn't want them to be combined because of pure interests.
"What if I say, I don't mind?"
Rias asked with a smile.
Xia Yan is speechless, is this after the expansion is completed, and then the expansion is not waited for to cool down?
"I won't back down."
Xia Yan said very simply.
Rias has said it so bluntly, if she beat around the bush again, it would seem a bit hypocritical.
Hearing this, Lias was still smiling, and the arc of her mouth couldn't sink no matter what, she said, "I will keep it in my heart."
"Thanks, I feel much better."
Rias got down from the window sill, stretched her waist, and showed her beautiful figure in front of Xia Yan's eyes without any scruples.
"Then I'll go back first."
Xia Yan waved her hand and left the old school building
"Perhaps Zhu Nai's suggestion is not bad."
Through the window, looking at Xia Yan's leaving back below, Lias raised the corners of her mouth and muttered to herself. .
