Chapter 90: Troubled Woman (Part 1)
Women, they are synonymous with trouble! Barrett's father would talk like this every time after drinking.
The man who pretended to be somber would sit in the courtyard, holding a wine glass in one hand, and stroking the old dog lying at his feet with the other, watching the sun gradually disappear from the mountains, and his tone was full of disdain and resentment. , and, nostalgia...
For Barrett, he doesn't really agree with this sentence in his heart, but he doesn't disagree, because sometimes a woman does mean trouble, for example, now.
The woman in front of her, who looked like a queen bee in both her dress and her temperament, was raising her head and strode towards him with a proud smile. Wherever the adventurers passed, like sea water split by a reef, they automatically dispersed to both sides.
The 'Queen Bee' wears a dark black leather armor embroidered with bright gold patterns on the upper body, and the same style of tight breeches on the lower body. Her slender thighs are full and elastic. With a finely decorated rapier and a dagger, the whole person is full of danger and temptation.
Barrett found that all the adventurers in the hall, including the guards, had excited faces about to see a good show, looking at him like a bear in a circus who was about to perform a fire ring. generally. Warren, the captain of the 'Burning Apple', had a smirk and wretchedness mixed with excitement on his face, while the loner Lann had an expression of 'seeking more happiness'.
Damn that **** rosacea, Barrett thought gloomily, otherwise I would have gone up to the second floor silently.
By the way, what is the name of this woman? God, hurry, think about it! Barrett was racking his brains.
Hannah, yes, Hannah! No, that's her old name, you idiot! What is her name now? Oh shit, there's no time, she's coming over, maybe I should get out of here and come back another day, that's a good idea! What a good idea, if you run away at this time, you will become the laughing stock of adventurers in the entire Galano region!
Your nickname will be changed from 'The Feeder' to 'The Guy Who Was Scared by Women', 'Barrett Without Eggs', and thinking about it, is the nickname 'Feeder' simply too good to be praised?
Various thoughts were racing through Barrett's mind.
The woman walked enchantingly in front of her, raised her head and looked up at Barrett. Although the woman was looking up and Barrett was looking down, it felt as if he, a strong man, was kneeling under the woman's skirt and kissing the toe of her shoe.
This arrogant woman just kept staring at him with such a smile on her face, without saying a word.
There must be someone who speaks first, and that person is undoubtedly me, Barrett thought gloomily. She wanted to press me with her momentum. She used to be like this, always liked to be on it, as if she was the rider, the one who paid, and I was the 'cute' who satisfies the customers' desires...
But I have no choice. I can't keep staring in such a silent way. She may not care, but I can't. I'm sure that if you wait a little longer, the guys around watching the show will be booing, and the booing is definitely not directed at this woman, Barrett pouted inwardly.
At such times, those hypocritical guys would disguise themselves as polite gentlemen and criticize him. Barrett could even think of what they would say, they would accuse him of being indifferent and silent, for leaving such a beautiful "lady" there, for losing all manners and demeanor, he was simply a man shame in.
Yes, they do, Barrett is all too familiar. Because if he were in the spectator's seat, he would do the same.
In fact, Barrett has done this many times before. The one time he was most impressed was a young pregnant woman crying while holding on to an equally young adventurer. And Barrett didn't know anything about the situation at the time, but that didn't stop him from shaking his head and saying some irresponsible nonsense, lamenting that the current adventurers are really inferior to each other, and they don't even have the most basic bottom line and morality. People's stomachs are getting bigger and they don't want to be responsible.
Oh, what a complete scumbag! He said this to an adventurer he didn't know next to him.
No, I have to do something, "Hey, Hannah, long time no see." Barrett had a stiff smile on his face.
"It's been a long time indeed." Hannah sighed resentfully, and lightly stroked Barrett's chest with her palm, "I didn't expect you to remember my old name, it's really touching, it's true that I used to love you so much. You." She changed from a queen to an infatuated girl with vivid eyes. This woman has thousands of faces, and you can't tell which one is the real her.
In love with me? No, you just love gold coins, "Hehehehehe." Barrett really didn't know what to say.
"Barrett, my little bee, your embarrassed look is really cute." Hannah chuckled, her palms changing from stroking to slapping.
This woman turned from a girl to a queen again, "I want to ask you a question, my little bee, at the gate of Galano city a few months ago, why didn't you turn around when I called you? Instead, it was faster. left?"
"I..." Barrett wanted to find an excuse.
"Don't tell me you didn't hear it, it's impossible. When you went to the 'The Naked Lambs' to linger with me, you repeated Warren's love words to Julie next door, word for word. Warren and we were separated by a corridor and two walls, and the sound was not much louder than the sound of a mosquito flapping its wings, but you could hear it clearly."
Damn, what did this woman say all this for? Barritt couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed when he saw that Warren, the captain of the Burning Apple, turned a little dark. He was going to Naked Lambs with Warren at the time, and Warren paid for his share, which was a bit out of place.
After that, Barrett had heard Warren say that Julie seemed to be a lot colder to him, and when asked why, it was Hannah who told Julie that Warren had said the same love words to her, and put those love words to her. Retelling to Julie...
Warren said he never said that to a woman other than Julie, and doesn't know why Hannah would know. The man's words and expressions at the time were full of doubts, but Barrett did not choose to tell the confused person the answer.
It originally thought that this embarrassing thing would never appear again like those adventurers who disappeared in the foggy forest, but the woman in front of her actually said it in a big way. No doubt it made Barrett a little embarrassed.
This woman, Barrett doesn't know what to say about her. If it wasn't for her unscrupulous character that annoyed the guests who patronized her, maybe there would have been no follow-up murders and escapes.
Not everyone has a good temper like me, Barrett praised himself in his heart.
By the way, and Warren, I do owe him an apology. Barrett made an apologetic expression to the dark-faced Warren~lightnovelpub.net~ and lip-mouthed him to invite him for a drink later.
And Warren, the captain of 'Burning Apple', also mouthed to Barrett and said that drinking is fine, but he wants to drink the best golden wine on Qingting Island, and he has to bring the whole team with him.
Damn, it's going to cost money again, and it's all to blame for that guy blocking the way. Barrett's anger revived at the rosacea again.
"Why don't you talk?" Hannah raised her eyebrows. "Are you afraid of me? Or, are you worried that the little girl with red hair around you knows our relationship?" She walked around Barrett lightly. After a circle, "Speaking of which, where's your little girl? Why didn't you see her following you?"
She left, disappeared, disappeared, because she is not my chick, because I can't give her what she wants.
"Hannah, long time no see, let's find a quiet place to catch up, don't disturb other people to find the mission." Barrett held Hannah's hand, and in the boos of everyone, he led the latter towards the fast speed. Run upstairs.
Hannah let out a pleasant laugh behind Barrett, but she didn't resist, but Shi Shiran followed him upstairs.
The tasks in the third-floor lobby of the Adventurer's Guild are no different. When the task bar in the first-floor lobby is full of tasks, other tasks will be pinned to the second floor and postponed accordingly. Therefore, there are usually the most people in the hall on the first floor of the guild, and it is enough to describe it as 'a sea of people' at any time; while the hall on the second floor is second, as for the adventurers on the third floor, in most cases there are very few.
Women are really troublesome, even harder to deal with than going to the most dangerous monster in the foggy forest, Barret thought helplessly in his heart. Maybe only the 'queen' can deal with the 'queen', and I'm just an ordinary worker bee.
