Have they been hypnotized by me?

"Okay, let's have dinner." While they were talking, Nan Zhukong had already prepared breakfast.

The breakfast placed on the table is as delicious, exquisite and full of life as ever, and the smell of happiness is refreshing.

Even after sleeping for 100 years, he can still accurately grasp the taste of ingredients...

So Echidna and Thor quickly took their seats, and of course...the other girls did the same.

Two witches, a dragon, a sword spirit, a puppet, and a demon god sit around a table...

Nan Zhukong quickly finished his share, then walked to Thor and asked her to help clean the tableware, and then walked out of the restaurant alone with a plate of breakfast.

When he came outside the house, he started "spread time travel" and immediately came to the person he wanted to go to.

In the quiet wilderness, a certain girl was squatting by the lake, looking at the river in front of her with a depressed mood...

"Alas...Mother..." The girl was worried about Echidna.

She had always hoped to get Echidna's true love, but... her goal didn't seem to be achieved smoothly.

Echidna actually didn't care about other things except Nan Zhukong, at least not that much.

It is understandable that Beatrice wants to be loved by her creator. Her motives are easy to understand. If Nan Zhukong were her, she would also have this obsession.

He expressed his powerlessness regarding the girl's wish. After all, love cannot be forced. It was impossible for him to order Echidna to love Beatrice like a mother. This was simply unrealistic.

However, Nan Zhukong could go and comfort the girl a little, which might make her mood better, Nan Zhukong thought so.

However, Beatrice resisted him.

"Don't get close to Betty...Betty hates you..." The petite girl curled up and turned her back to Nan Zhukong. She didn't like Nan Zhukong. She hated Nan Zhukong because Nan Zhukong took away her mother. , Nan Zhukong asked Echidna to pour all her feelings into him...

Well, these are actually not the most important...

The most important thing is that she originally thought that Echidna was in love with her...

But her attitude and gap in the relationship between Nan Zhukong and Beatrice made her realize the difference. That kind of feeling, that kind of fanaticism, that level of caring, she could understand the difference as big as heaven and earth after just one glance. ...

Beatrice could realize this huge difference every time she heard Echidna talk about Nan Zhukong, which made her... unbearable.

Although she vaguely understood in her heart that Echidona might not truly love her without Nan Zhukong, but...she couldn't accept this kind of thing, because if this was the case, it would be equivalent to admitting that she was not loved. Value, you can never wait for someone who loves you.

So, she doesn't like Nan Zhukong, she hates Nan Zhukong...

She didn't want to get close to Nan Zhukong... because he was annoying, but he also had a kind of... love in him, a love that she had never been exposed to before. This made her confused, and she didn't want to get close to him.

"Want to have breakfast? I made it. It's delicious." Although she was very resistant to Nan Zhukong, this was never a problem for Nan Zhukong.

It's easy to break through barriers and so on, isn't it?

Place the meal gently in front of the girl and let the aroma gently float into the girl's nostrils.

"I told you not to...but if you insist on doing this, it's not impossible...Betty can just eat a little..." Beatrice was a little embarrassed, because the people next to her were so ignorant, and she obviously didn't care. I said I hate him...

In order to let him know the taste, she just took a bite... Speaking of which, she rarely tasted food. Roswaal took her to eat at Mezas Mansion before, but the taste was just average.

The aroma seduced her, as did a certain throbbing in her heart...

So, the girl finally ate the forbidden fruit...

"It's so delicious..." Beatrice said. She had eaten something very delicious just now. She felt her heart beating. She felt an inexplicable feeling that made her feel warm. ..

"As long as it suits your taste." Nan Zhukong said, a smile appeared on his cheeks because of the girl's recognition.

"Betty just thinks the food is delicious...I'm not admitting you, the guy who stole my mother..." Beatrice said.

This time, there was a trace of hesitation in the words, and Beatrice could feel the warm and kind atmosphere on Nan Zhukong's body, as well as the inexplicable... love.

This made her confused and she didn't know what to say...

"They are just out of their minds because of the quarrel. They have no ill intentions towards you. Please don't take it to heart." Nan Zhukong explained what happened this morning.

However, Beatrice did not answer.

"After you finish eating, remember to send the plate back, then... I'll leave first." Nan Zhukong said, then touched the girl's head... and left here.

Beatrice stared at the plate in her hand and the breakfast in it, with mixed emotions, and then ate some more...

"I'm so reluctant...but, it's delicious..." she murmured to herself.

At this moment, someone hiding on the side, observing the two people deep in the grass and shrubs, sighed...

"As expected, the teacher's lover is very good at taking care of others...it's a skill that can't be learned."

--------

On the third day, Nan Zhukong woke up from bed. Today, Echidna and Thor did not go to him to make out, just because he said he wanted to stay alone for a while.

He really needs to be alone for a while... because being alone makes him feel more relaxed...

But it was easy. He only needed to enjoy it for one night.

After that, he still had to get along with the girls. He came to the kitchen again. He looked around and felt that someone was hiding here.

"Who is it?" Nan Zhukong asked as he found the right direction.

However, nothing happened.

So, Nan Zhukong pointed in that direction, gently pulled out Cong Yuwan from the void, and cut the "boundary".

The next moment, Beatrice fell out of the void...

"Wow!!" She was obviously shocked.

Then, she fell from the air and was caught by Nan Zhukong...

After a series of hectic conflicts, Nan Zhukong finally faced Beatrice.

"Why are you spying on me? I felt this kind of gaze last night." Nan Zhukong felt the girl's gaze before falling asleep last night.

"What Betty wants to do...don't worry about it..." Beatrice's cheeks were dotted with a lovely blush, she turned her head awkwardly, and her two index fingers restlessly tapped their respective fingertips...obviously He is doing something that makes people feel guilty.

"If you don't say anything, how about you come and learn cooking from me?" Nan Zhukong narrowed his eyes and planned to teach this guy how to cook. In any case, Nan Zhukong wanted to establish some trust relationship with Beatrice. She is This adorable girl makes me want to teach her lifelong skills...

"Wha...what?! Betty didn't want to learn cooking! No!" Beatrice was in panic just now, and now she seemed to have mistakenly told the truth because she missed Nan Zhukong's words. ——She wants to learn cooking.

"Ah... you really want to learn cooking, so why do you want to learn?" Nan Zhukong was curious about the girl's motives. In his opinion, the girl herself didn't need to eat, because she used the meal yesterday to learn how to cook. The chance of cooking should be very small.

"No... no... okay! I know... I just said it..." Beatrice didn't want to answer at first, but she regretted it after saying the words of rejection... So He told his reasons.

"Hmm..." Nan Zhukong started cooking while listening carefully to the girl's explanation of her reasons.

------

"Ah, that's it..." Nan Zhukong finally understood the whole story after listening.

Beatrice just wanted to get Echidna's attention and love, because Echidna devoted all her love to Nan Zhukong, so she thought that maybe she could just learn Nan Zhukong's cooking skills and use it to cook. It is compiled into a book. As long as this is the case... As long as this is the case, maybe Echidna can look at her one more time and pour her true love into her, instead of just the relationship between the creator and the creation as it is now. , she wants to be loved as a daughter...

Because besides Nan Zhukong, Echidna also likes knowledge...

Echidna built a library herself, and she was the temporary guardian of that library.

For this goal, she can do many things, including bowing to Nan Zhukong, the "father" she hates...

"So... will... teach Betty?" After telling the reason, Beatrice lowered her head and looked up at Nan Zhukong from time to time, timidly waiting for Nan Zhukong's answer.

She has said it all, there is no way out...

"Of course, if you want to learn, I will teach you." Nan Zhukong's answer made her breathe a sigh of relief, and she felt relaxed in her heart. At the same time...she laughed unconsciously.

"Oh, doesn't that smile look good? Little Beatrice, it's better to smile more, especially in front of me." Nan Zhukong's words reached her ears, and her smile froze instantly.

Wait... wait, why is she smiling?

No, she didn't laugh... She didn't laugh because of this guy... No, no...

"Of course, I will go to sleep again soon. No matter what, you must learn from me recently... After I fall asleep, I don't know when I can teach you." Nan Zhukong touched the girl's head.

"Ahem...Betty is a genius! You won't be able to learn, you guy, watch out for Betty!" Beatrice had just straightened her expression when Nan Zhukong's head-touching attack made her blush again, feeling in her heart With an emotion that she didn't recognize herself, she spoke eloquently to Nan Zhukong...

"Then, let me wait and see." Nan Zhukong raised his eyebrows and said.

He was looking forward to it, hoping that the girl could accomplish her goal. Even if she couldn't accomplish it, Nan Zhukong also hoped that she would gain something... That's it.

56. Meet you again in the world

After dinner a few days later, in the kitchen.

"Very good, you learn very quickly, let me demonstrate to you... It should be like this here, yes, like this..." Nan Zhukong taught Beatrice the secret of cooking by herself step by step.

The technique part was the longest and most boring. Nan Zhukong was afraid that Beatrice would yawn, but fortunately Beatrice was very enthusiastic about Nan Zhukong's teaching and she studied very seriously.

"Well, Betty knows..."

"Wait, please stop here, Betty needs to write it down..."

Beatrice was listening carefully and even taking notes carefully.

"..." Nan Zhukong looked at her with a smile, a feeling of relief welling up spontaneously.

Ah... My students are very serious, Arturia is the same, and so is Beatrice.

Thinking of this, Nan Zhukong suddenly thought of Artoria. What is she doing now?I haven't seen her since I came back...

On the third day, because I had just woken up, I didn’t think much about it, and I didn’t even take into account my first student...

Tsk... After sleeping for a long time, people become sleepy.

"By the way, where is the Avalon in my body?" When he thought of Artoria, Nan Zhukong thought of the Avalon in his body. He murmured to himself, checked it again, and found that it was missing. ..

"Nan Zhu... ah... uh... teacher, what should we do here?" Beatrice wanted to ask him a question, but she didn't know how to call him more appropriately. So I held it in for a long time before calling out a "teacher"...

"Heh... here should be... the ratio of the ingredients is... the selection of ingredients is..." Nan Zhukong answered all of Beatrice's questions with a smile.

"Teacher...thank you." Beatrice is essentially a good child. When she receives favors from others, even if she is not the one she likes, she will still politely say thank you.

"Oh... if you don't know what to call me, how about calling me brother? You look about the same size as Bai, and you look a lot like my sister in terms of body shape." Seeing the girl being so entangled over a title, Nan Zhukong couldn't help but think of Heizi. Come on, I don’t know how she is doing now...

More than 100 years have passed here, it should be fine over there...

"..." Beatrice didn't know how to answer.

"..." Beatrice felt very ashamed to call Brother Nan Zhukong...

"Brother...Brother..." In the end, she called Brother Nan Zhukong.

When Nan Zhukong heard this voice, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he smiled unconsciously.

"Scream a few more times! A few more shouts!" Nan Zhukong said excitedly. Hearing Beatrice call her brother in a slightly ashamed and repulsive voice gave him an unusual pleasure.

"Really! Betty is here to learn cooking!" Then she was taught a lesson by the angry girl.

Finally, late at night, Nan Zhukong ended his teaching to Beatrice.

Just now, he not only demonstrated it in person, but also taught her step by step, and finally helped her improve her notes.

Fortunately, Beatrice is a smart girl, so Nan Zhukong didn't worry too much.

After a period of teaching, this cute and arrogant and awkward girl finally became familiar with Nan Zhukong. Just now, when Nan Zhukong turned to leave, she even grabbed the corner of his clothes, turned away and said with a blush. "Thanks".

Hearing Beatrice's thanks, Nan Zhukong was also very happy.

So, he touched Beatrice's head as usual.

After Nan Zhukong left, Beatrice stood there blankly, touching her head with a complicated expression.

"What a strange feeling...that guy, really doesn't know that Betty hates him? He has said it so many times, but he still does...doesn't he care at all?" Beatrice had already said it... She didn't have the intention to have a good relationship with Nan Zhukong, but the relationship between Nan Zhukong and her got better and better... This, this was completely different from what she thought.

Not the same at all...

The girl's mind was still very accessible at the moment, so... it only took six days for that figure to be engraved into the girl's heart.

"Thank you..." she muttered to herself, as if she had stumbled a bit in her thank you just now, so she chose to contact her so that she could speak more smoothly in the future.

"Brother..." He was obviously just practicing thanking him, but for some reason he said this title.

----------

In the room at night, Nan Zhukong was talking to Echidna and Thor.

"Artoria, that guy disappeared 50 years ago..." Thor turned away and said with a guilty conscience.

Nan Zhukong just walked over to them and asked them about Avalon and Artoria, and they knew that the matter was exposed...

So, like a child who had made a mistake, he lowered his head and told what happened at that time.

Artoria absorbed Avalon in Nan Zhukong's body the night he fell into a deep sleep. Avalon was originally in Nan Zhukong's body, but after he fell asleep, Avalon ran directly to her.
