The villain's way of taming the protagonist

"Well, thanks to Lord Hydera."

Sitana felt relieved, but felt very upset because of Marina's last words.

However, she quickly put on an appearance of "I'm so powerful", and recounted what happened in Saofeng Castle selectively and processed.

"Linna Linna, do you know what that bad guy in Hydera is doing?"

She pouted her nose and said proudly: "I know it! He can't hide it from me at all!"

This time, Marina frowned in embarrassment, and thoughtfully repeated a few key words that Sitana had said.

"Assassination, Viscount, Grand Duke of the Gray Tower... Merciful, death?"

Seeing her sister's tangled appearance, Xitana's expression became more and more proud.

Then, within a few minutes, she saw Marina's eyes suddenly brighten, and she blurted out: "The assassination at the banquet that day was ordered by His Excellency Hydera? And the Grand Duke of the Gray Tower wanted to help the two viscounts get away, so as to Will exposing His Excellency Hydera's layout make him lose the popular support in Chishuang?"

Sitana, thinking can't.

Her proud expression just froze on her face.

"No, this, you—" the girl jumped up in disbelief, "How did you guess this, it's impossible!"

"Your Excellency Hydera has a lot of information about Earl Chishuang and his henchmen, and I have read them all."

"So I know the relationship between those two viscounts and Earl Chishuang, and with Xier's description...it's not hard to guess."

——That’s the truth. Anser’s explanation to Sitana was actually a connection of all the existing facts.It's just that Xitana didn't believe that someone would ask someone to assassinate her, and Marina quickly thought of this crucial point.

Under Sitana's unbelievable eyes, Marina looked away a little embarrassedly: "It's not that I'm so smart...it's His Excellency Hydera. As I said, Xier, he can let us see a broader world." The world is just a simple paperwork, and he is willing to let me access so much information at will... He is the benefactor we must do our best to repay, Xier!"

"What are you talking about! 外#@集>

"

Your Excellency Hydera, Your Excellency Hydera, Your Excellency Hydera...

The admiration and longing in Marina's words and expressions, the strong and sincere emotion, made Sitana unable to restrain the mania in her heart.

"It's all like this, he has done such things to deceive us, why do you still admire him so much?!" Sitana looked at Marina in disbelief, "He is a liar! Using that method to cheat us Everyone's praise and loyalty to him, don't you think that guy is disgusting at all?"

"... Xier, you—"

Marina was stunned for a long time, and she realized that her sister's personality was like this, but she knew...if she couldn't accept this kind of thing, then it was impossible for Xitana to stay by Anser's side for a long time.

The cowardly elder sister summoned up her courage and said to Sitana very seriously, not with persuasion, but with a rebuttal or even critical attitude and way:

五@设计==设备+>烧{@八#~印>Spirit<instrument>% device-four=record*number{~yi&ling#five$=just~is|*nine|eight

小=说=群|1$*0=1<#[email protected][email protected]@９#4$9&8

Facing the unbelievably dull gaze in anger, Marina continued to grit her teeth while her heart was twitching nervously, and said firmly:

"You are already 16 years old, and you are no longer the little girl who was 12 years old. You should know that there is no right and wrong in everything in this world."

"Yes, His Excellency Hydera deceived us, but so what? He used this deception in exchange for our support, and then? Did he do anything to apologize for our support?"

"Did he oppress us without a bottom line like the Earl of Scarlet Frost? Did he collude with those despicable aristocratic bureaucrats? So far, what has he done, completely out of malice to hurt you, me, and ordinary people like us? matter?"

Marina, who was backed by facts, said with a more sonorous and forceful voice: "No, he didn't do anything, he could have done those dirty things under deception, but did he do it? Sitana, you know In the past two days, how many documents have been accumulated in his study waiting to be processed? Do you know who is maintaining the stability of Chishuang after the death of Earl Chishuang?"

"You don't know! You can only tolerate hypocrisy that you look down upon, and only Hydera, who is extremely evil under your paranoid thinking!"

"Go out and have a look, look at the gifts piled up in the yard, ask anyone on the road, ask them what they think of His Excellency Hydera, ask them if they are like you, Sitana!"

Marina and her sister looked at each other, breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a slow tone: "So, don't hate Lord Hydera so much anymore, he won't always pamper you like that, don't make mistakes again, Sitana .”

After this sentence was finished, Marina suddenly felt very uncomfortable.

The next moment, tears welled up in Sitana's eyes.

"roll!"

She snarled at Marina angrily: "Why don't you stand by me, you are my sister! Why do you speak for the guy I hate!"

"Sitana, you—"

"Marlena, you should have seen the expression you had on that guy in the study... and the look you had when he mentioned his name just now. Do you like him? Just imagine those women who are flirting with Hydera, do it His lover!"

"Sitana!"

The outrageous words made Marina furious. The girl who had never really scolded her sister raised her palm and slapped her on the cheek uncontrollably.

"Do you know what you're talking about! How can you do this!"

Even after she finished fanning, Marina regretted it, but she still said so sharply in anger and disappointment.

"..."

Sitana covered her cheek and said nothing.

And Marina read emotions she had never seen before from those cold dark red pupils.

hatred.

The tearful wolf cub turned his head and rushed out the door without hesitation, leaving Marina alone at a loss.

In fact, it was as if Sitana hadn't really understood Marina's good intentions.

Marina also didn't understand what happened to her absurd, arrogant, egoistic younger sister after she woke up from a coma today.

——Sitana, who asked why she was assassinated, heard with Anser, who never lied to her, that the assassination was arranged by him.

Who would have any tolerance for a person who wanted to kill himself?

And poor Xitana, even in order not to worry her sister who has a good life, deliberately concealed this matter.

What he got in return was such ruthless and indifferent criticism, and... a slap in the face.

ps:

The total number of words today is too much, it seems to be almost 7K, but I feel uncomfortable if I don’t write it completely (scratching my head)

Although this process...is a bit distorted (although I write it very well), readers may feel uncomfortable, but believe me, everyone has a bright future after the training is over, it must be!

Chapter 38 Sisters Third

When Anser finished processing almost half of the documents, there was a light knock on the door outside the study.

"Please come in."

Anser, who had already guessed who the opponent was, put down the quill.

"..." The delicate and haggard Marina opened the door slowly and carefully, she was slightly relieved when she saw that Anser was not at work, but she still whispered, "I'm sorry to disturb you, Hyde Pull Your Excellency."

"It's nothing, I just had to rest too."

Anser looked at the girl's complex expression, and asked softly, "Did something happen, Miss Marina?"

"...No, no, nothing, please don't take it to heart."

While regretting and puzzled in the room, Marina quickly thought about another matter.

——That is, Hitana didn't control her volume well, and their dispute should probably be heard by some maid again.

Therefore, Marina didn't even have much time to worry and be sad. She knew that she had to do something immediately to save herself... Maybe Anser didn't care, but she couldn't be foolish enough to think that she didn't need to do it.

For the current Marina, the only thing she can do is to try her best not to become a burden to Sitana, and try her best to show her value in front of Anser. She is almost the same as Sitana as long as she does If it is better, Sitana can be treated better by Anser.

Even if it can only add one point to the evaluation, in order to keep Sitana by Anser's side, even if she can only use her best efforts to get the smallest gains, Marina doesn't care.

Marina firmly believes that her sister will grow up one day, and before that day, it is her duty to protect her, educate her, and help her... everything is her responsibility.

So, the girl tried her best to hide her exhaustion and sadness, and smiled at Anser: "If you are free, can I ask you some questions."

"of course."

Anser, who had a panoramic view of Marina's expression, smiled like this: "In fact, I have already annotated all your previous documents, let's take a look first."

"……what?"

Marina stared at the document Anser handed over in a daze. The calmness she tried to pretend just now turned into bewilderment.

She looked at the clear and neat handwriting on the document, which was almost integrated with what she had written, the large number of comments without the slightest sense of confusion and complexity, and the final evaluation...Suddenly there was an almost uncontrollable sour feeling in her heart .

It's like Sitana, who has that kind of talent, puts her dignity almost above her life.Smart and strong, Marlena, who has to endure more difficult things than Sitana, how could she not yearn for such things, not yearn for respect from others?

I am obviously just a village girl from a remote village. Apart from her appearance, it is impossible to get into the eyes of a big man like Hydera, and she may not even be able to show her appearance.

But even so, he still respects himself, and doesn't regard himself as a vassal of that genius sister. So far, he hasn't made any frivolous actions or even words, let alone give himself a job in a coping manner.

Every meticulous and meticulous stroke on the document reflects the true respect that this young and tolerant big shot has for himself.

Xier... how could you be so disrespectful to Lord Hydera.

Thinking of how many times her sister had offended His Excellency Hydera countless times, yet she had received the other party's unconditional tolerance and tolerance countless times, Marina's heart throbbed uncontrollably.

【If, if the person with that kind of talent is me, then will Lord Hydera also—】

The dark cold light flashed in Marina's mind.

"Miss Marina?" Anser asked softly, "Is there something you don't understand?"

"...Huh? No, no! Your comment is very clear!"

Marina came back to her senses all of a sudden, while responding to Anser in such a panic, she felt ashamed of what she had just thought.

"To be precise, your comprehension and analysis skills are excellent, Miss Marina."

Anser looked at Marina with polite and gentle eyes, causing the latter to look away nervously and shyly: "I... I am not as powerful as you said, Your Excellency Hydera."

"Excessive self-effacing is not a good character, Miss Marina."

Anser smiled lightly, "Or are you doubting my vision?"

The girl hurriedly replied: "No! Me, how dare I!"

Doubting His Excellency Hydera's vision, doesn't it mean that he also misunderstood Sitana?

"Then you should talk to me with your chest up, Miss Marina."

The handsome young nobleman held his chin, he didn't deliberately show any "charming smile", he just said gently: "You have a talent that I recognize, you can be proud of it, there is no reason to shrink back, right? "

The girl who tied her long snow hair into a plain twist looked at the face that was so close but so far away, she felt her inner timidity being gently lifted, and the exhaustion and loneliness that she had never told anyone was being lifted up. The warm sun shines.

In the eyes of Your Excellency Hydera, she is not a girl with a pretty face, a village girl from a rough background, or a vassal of a genius sister.

But a man of worth, dignity, ability, and dignity.

"Yes."

Resisting the tears, Marina, who did not want to let her current self become unbearable, straightened her chest, looked up at Anser, and responded softly but firmly: "I will, I will definitely not disappoint your approval .”

"Pull up a chair and sit across from me."

Anser smiled: "You can ask me any questions, regardless of the size or simplicity of the questions."

Marina was no longer ecstatic or excited at this moment. She nodded obediently, sat opposite Anser, and asked Anser all the questions she didn't understand without hesitation or hiding.

Anser, on the other hand, carefully explained to Marina the various documents he had handled, including the government affairs on Chishuang's collar, as well as personal letters specially sent to him.

The girl was fascinated by what she heard, and only now did she realize that the tricks she used to fight the tax officials were no different from children's tricks.Marina was fascinated by His Excellency Hydera's relaxed and comfortable appearance walking between the two grand dukes.

If Sitana were here, she would only yell that the nobles are hypocritical bastards, but Marina is working hard to absorb the knowledge and knowledge that Anser brought her to survive and grow in this society. Skills, I deeply feel that I am shallow and insufficient.

"Your Excellency Hydera, regarding this application for the transfer of the Earl's private soldiers, why do you—"

"Goo~"

The girl's face was extremely red in an instant, she clutched her stomach, and let out a soft cat-like sound from her throat: "That, I, I..."

"Has it been three hours?" Anser said with emotion as if he hadn't heard the voice just now, "Even I forgot the time, Miss Marina, as a student, you are more mature than I expected Much better."

"It's time for me to eat too, Miss Marina, this is the end of today's class, how is it?"

Marina stood up holding the notebook Anser gave her, and bowed deeply to Anser: "I will definitely not disappoint your guidance, Your Excellency Hydera."

Anser smiled and waved his hands: "Don't put pressure on yourself, let's have a good meal first, Miss Marina."

The girl's ears were burning hot, and she lifted the hem of her skirt and gave Anser a lady's salute that was becoming more and more proficient, then covered her cheeks, and hurried away like a deer.

Anser watched Marina go away with a smile, and stretched comfortably.

"You don't have much time left, dear Sitana."

He lazily leaned back on the chair, and said to himself with fun and joy:
