Ark girl won't like me

On the contrary, Maria was still a little happy.

Originally, she was worried about who to ask for advice, but now that Chen Yu came, her worries were instantly solved.

Not only that, but you can also help your sister.

It’s like killing two birds with one stone!

Following Maria to the place where she lived, after she opened the door, Chen Yu took Rosemary and the others and followed her in.

……

339 Brother-in-law~Brother-in-law~Brother-in-law~~

The place where Maria lives looks like a relatively classical Casimir building from the outside.

But unlike the appearance, upon entering the house, the luxurious hall, which should have been decorated with gorgeous decorations and beautiful salons, looked empty.

In the hall that should be filled with luxurious decorations, there is almost nothing except some salons that look like they have been used for a long time and hanging white gauze.

If nothing else, it should have been sold.

Looking at the empty lobby, Chen Yu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

The situation at Maria's family was even worse than he thought.

As a knight noble, not only did he have no money, but even the dignity regarded by the nobles seemed to have been lost.

But judging from the exchange just now.

Maria seemed to be on the verge of selling her bed and sleeping on the floor, so it wasn't surprising.

Noticing Chen Yu's surprised expression, Maria felt a little embarrassed.

"Hug, I'm sorry, brother-in-law. Due to financial difficulties, my house has almost sold out everything, so it seems a little empty. I hope you don't mind."

"No, it looks good."

After answering Maria with a smile, Chen Yu knocked her again angrily.

"Also, don't call me brother-in-law. As you said, Linguang and I are just colleagues. If your sister hears this, she will have to beat me to death with a war hammer."

"Hehe~"

Covering the place where Chen Yu had knocked her, Maria giggled.

"By the way, brother-in-law, please sit down for a while, and I'll get tea leaves to make tea for you!"

Seeing Maria running away in a hurry, Chen Yu felt a little dizzy.

He talked about his feelings for a long time, but this silly girl didn't listen at all?

Sighing, Chen Yu was not polite and directly invited Ni Yan and Rosemary to sit on the sofa in the hall.

……

"Well, I remember my uncle put the black tea here."

Maria, who rummaged through the drawer but never found her own black tea, shook her ears and felt a little puzzled.

I looked around again, but still couldn't find it.

Just when Maria was about to go downstairs dejectedly, she paused and suddenly remembered something.

If I remember correctly, Uncle Maena seemed to have sold the last black tea at home because of lack of money last time.

Although she was poor, people still came to her house occasionally, so she still had to have the necessary black tea.

but now…

Everything in her room was sold out except for the big, fluffy bed, and her uncle Maena was in a similar situation.

Even worse than her.

Except for a few treasured books, Maena's room only had a wooden bed.

Thinking of this, Maria scratched her head and her expression became depressed.

Because of frustration, the big golden tail and ears also twitched.

"Uuuu, there is no tea left, what should I do..."

With a sigh, Maria walked downstairs dejectedly.

She planned to talk to Chen Yu before going out to buy some new tea leaves.

As a noble, I didn't expect that my family didn't even have any black tea to entertain guests.

Wow, this is so embarrassing.

With her tail hanging weakly, Maria could only pray in her heart that Chen Yu wouldn't care about this.

"Maria, why are you so downcast? Are you falling out of love?"

When I got downstairs, I heard Chen Yu's concerned greetings.

Lost in love?

I'm not in love?

After looking at Maria who was stunned, Chen Yu immediately became energetic.

Hey, you’re not really right, are you?

Thinking of this, he quickly poured a cup of black tea and handed it to Maria, then pushed her to sit on a chair before she regained consciousness.

Eh?

Where did this black tea come from?

Looking at the steaming tea in her hand, Maria was a little confused.

At this time, Chen Yu had already sat back to his original position.

He was overjoyed when he saw Maria staring at the black tea in a daze.

Judging from the look on this silly girl, maybe she is really lovelorn.

"Come on, have some tea first."

"Oh…"

Resisting the urge to ask directly, he first asked the "stressed" Maria to take a sip of black tea, and then Chen Yu coughed dryly.

"Maria, can I ask you something?"

He said it casually, as if casually.

"Are you broken in love?"

"...Hot, hot, hot!"

Hearing this, Maria's movement to drink tea froze. The hot black tea flowed into her mouth, making her scream.

Looking at Maria who was burned like a puppy and stuck out her tongue, Mud Rock and Rosemary couldn't help but look sideways.

Steady!

Seeing Maria's reaction, Chen Yu felt happy.

He felt that Maria might really be lovelorn!

As Linguang's colleague and friend, of course he had to take good care of Maria's situation.

However, just when Chen Yu was about to find out who dumped Maria, or who Maria dumped, Maria spoke.

"Brother-in-law, I am not lovelorn!"

Maria's words made Chen Yu stunned and a little confused.

"Huh? Then why are you downcast?"

"It's because there is no more black tea at home."

Speaking of this, Maria's expression became dejected again.

The ears that were upright were also quietly pulled down.

She pouted: "A few days ago, Uncle Maena sold the last black tea leaves at home, so now there is no tea left at home."

"That's one of the best black teas in Casimir. It's very expensive. I originally wanted to ask my brother-in-law to try it, but now there's nothing left..."

"Just because of this?"

Looking at Maria who became even more frustrated as she spoke, Chen Yu couldn't laugh or cry.

"Maria, I am not a Casimir noble. I don't care about complicated etiquette. If you can, just give me a glass of boiled water."

"Plain water!? How can that be done!"

Like a cat whose tail was stepped on, Maria jumped up, excited.

"This is so rude!"

Letting guests drink boiled water is so unbecoming of the knight Casimir!

Although she is a poor noble, she would not do such a thing!

"You're making a fuss out of a molehill. I think plain water is fine."

Chen Yu silently knocked on the table and said helplessly.

"You probably don't know that boiled water is the most popular drink in the Yan Kingdom."

This is not a lie by Chen Yu.

It is different from places like Casimir where both the poor and the nobles like to drink black tea.

In the Yan Kingdom, tea tasting was mostly a leisurely activity reserved only for nobles.

Most ordinary people drink boiled water.

Even though times have progressed now, many people have started to learn the ways of the nobility when they have money, but most people from the Yan Kingdom still haven't gotten rid of this habit.

Besides, boiled water is actually not bad either.

If you have a fever, drink some hot water.
