Chapter 3
The two of them were in a mess.
"Columbia, do you hate Pucciniera?" Jingliu asked Columbia.
Jingliu looked at Columbia and seemed not to want to talk to Pucciniera. Jingliu felt that this "Mr. Mayor" was quite friendly. At least he thought so.
"I can't say I hate him. After all, we are colleagues. I just don't like the hypocrisy in him," Columbia replied.
"For some reason, I can see through a person's appearance and see his inner self directly. Those bright and beautiful appearances may hide a dark heart. This kind of people are the most abundant among the Fatui."
"Rooster" He did do a lot of practical things, but in my opinion, it was just a way to hide himself. ”
“Okay, it’s getting late. Let’s go to the next place.” Columbia looked up at the sky and then said to Jingliu.
…
“This is the North Country Bank, the economic center of the Winter Country. It was founded by the ninth seat of the Eleven Executive Officers of the Fatui, the “Rich Man” Pantalone,” Columbia explained.
Jingliu looked at the magnificent building in front of him, and his mouth twitched slightly. If you didn’t know, you would think this was the residence of the Ice Queen.
“Okay, let’s go in.”
The interior of the North Country Bank is more gorgeous than the outside.
“I’ve heard that the Queen brought someone from outside in person. Today, I see that it’s really as good as the reputation.”
As soon as I entered the door, I saw a man in gorgeous clothes looking at Jingliu. Columbia and I have obviously been waiting here for a long time.
"The ninth seat of the Eleventh Executive Officer of the Fatui, the "Rich Man" Pantalone, is a banker as you can see," Pantalone said with a smile.
"I just arrived at the Winter Solstice today."
The smile on Pantalone's face froze. He didn't expect Jingliu to not give him face at all.
Columbia was also laughing beside him.
"Haha, this lady is really interesting," Pantalone smiled awkwardly but politely, and then asked:
"I wonder what you are doing in my bank? ”
“Please apply for a Mora card for Jingliu,” Columbia replied.
“I see,” Pantalone heard, and asked his men to prepare the formalities immediately. Soon a brand new card appeared in Jingliu’s hand.
“Well, by the way, transfer some Mora from my account to Jingliu’s card.”
“Then I will also transfer some Mora to this lady as a gift,” Pantalone looked at Jingliu with a gentleman’s look.
Jingliu felt a chill.
“Well, it’s getting late, “Rich Man”, Jingliu and I will leave first.”
"Okay, if you have any financial difficulties, you can come to me," Pantalone said with a smile.
Pantalone smiled and watched Jingliu and Columbia leave, wondering what he was thinking...
After leaving the North Country Bank, Jingliu said to Columbia a little embarrassedly:
"Isn't this a bad idea? I've troubled you so much and I have to spend your money."
Jingliu was willing to spend the money of "rich people", but he was still a little embarrassed to spend Columbia's money.
"What's not good about it? Besides, I don't even know how much I have in Karimola, so don't worry too much. Just think of it as you helping me spend money." Before Jingliu could speak, Columbia took a step and left.
Seeing this, Jingliu ran over quickly. Looking at the completely dark sky, he asked Columbia:
"Are you going to find me a hotel now?"
Columbia stopped and thought for a while, then said to Jingliu: "You haven't registered your identity yet, so the hotel won't accept you. The Zhidong Kingdom is quite strict about these things."
"Ah? Then I won't have to sleep outdoors at night, will I?"
"Well~don't worry, just go to my house later," Columbia said calmly.
"Oh oh"
"Let's go eat first"
...
"Welcome to our store, Miss "Girl"" As soon as he entered the door, he saw the manager coming to greet him.
"Quick, go and prepare the best box for Miss "Girl""
Jingliu looked at the rich dishes in front of him and the flattering look of the manager, and couldn't help but understand the importance of status.
After a while, the dishes on the table were eaten by the two (although most of them were eaten by Jingliu).
"Let's go faster, my residence is not in Zhidong City" Columbia said to Jingliu.
"Hmm"
...
"Columbia, this is... your home?" Jingliu looked at the small
The wooden house asked?
"Hmm"
"I thought that with Columbia's status, even if she didn't live in a big palace, she would live in a big villa. I didn't expect..."
"Haha, compared to the luxurious life of indulging in power and money, I prefer to be an ordinary "person", living in an ordinary residence and leading an ordinary life" Columbia replied with a smile.
But I think Columbia, you can't be ordinary at all, Jingliu complained in his crazy heart. As an executive of the Fatui, Columbia is even in the top three among the executives. She plays a vital role in the entire Winter Kingdom. "People" like this can't be ordinary at all
"I know, so I just live what I think is an ordinary life while practicing the will of the Ice Queen" Columbia seemed to see through Jingliu's inner thoughts.
After speaking, Columbia opened the door and walked in, and Jingliu also walked in quickly.
Although the room is small, everything is arranged in an orderly manner and looks very spacious. It exudes a light fragrance, making people feel very comfortable.
"Well, it's not early now, Jingliu, do you want to take a shower first or go to bed directly?" Columbia asked Jingliu.
When he heard about taking a shower, Jingliu blushed and stammered: "I... I won't take a shower. I'm a little tired today. I'll go to bed directly. By the way, where do I sleep?"
"You can sleep on my bed. My bed is quite big. It's enough for two people. If you mind, I can also sleep on the sofa. Jingliu, you can sleep on the bed alone."
"No, no, let's sleep together." Jingliu waved his hands repeatedly after hearing what Columbia said.
"Then I'll take a shower first, you go to bed first, just leave some space for me." After saying that, Columbia walked towards the bathroom.
...
Listening to the sound of running water in the bathroom, thinking about sleeping in the same bed with a beautiful girl like Columbia, Jingliu tossed and turned in bed, giggling non-stop, unable to suppress his excitement.
"Hehe" Just as Jingliu was still giggling, he suddenly felt sleepy, and soon, Jingliu fell into a deep sleep...
...
After taking a bath, Columbia looked at Jingliu who was already asleep.
"It seems that I am really tired today"
After saying that, she slowly climbed onto the bed, covered herself with the quilt and fell asleep...
