Chapter 95 Price 【Subscription】

The small bottle in the professor's hand.

Reflect Roger's face into a distorted appearance.

He looked at the clearing potion in front of him, and subconsciously reached out to catch it.

The finger holding the clearing potion retracted slightly, avoiding Roger's palm, the professor looked at the boy with a longing look in front of him, and said with a smile.

"If you want potions, you have to pay enough first."

Hearing the professor's reminder, Roger reacted as if he had just woken up from a dream.

He looked at the cleaning potion in the professor's hand, then turned his head to look at the professor's smiling face, swallowed a mouthful of saliva and asked tentatively, "So, it's still 1 dollar?"

"of course not."

Shaking his head to deny the last trace of fantasy in Roger's mind, the professor pinched the bottle containing the clearing potion with his fingers, and slowly revealed its price.

"The price for obtaining it is three years of your life in exchange."

"life!"

Hearing the price given by the professor, even though he was prepared in his heart, Roger was still shocked by the expensive price of the clearing potion.

"However, the price of the love potion is only $1."

Roger couldn't accept that the price of cheap love in the professor's mouth was so high.

"Love is indeed cheap, but..."

The eyes under the professor's glasses seemed to have some kind of insight into people's hearts. He stared at Roger's astonished appearance, and replied in a slow and seductive tone: "But it is also the most unbearable thing in this world. The price is not mandatory, it is a fact that you can also choose not to pay the price, and continue to return to reality to 'enjoy' the beauty of love."

The professor's words made Roger subconsciously recall Leila's appearance.

The face that was jealous and crazy because of excessive love seemed to be right in front of him, waving a sharp kitchen knife and rushing towards him.

"I'm willing to pay the price."

Frightened by the memory in his mind, Roger gritted his teeth and paid the price for clearing the potion.

"Now, it's yours."

Watching Roger sign his name on the contract, the professor immediately burst into a smile, put the clearing potion in his hand, and at the same time reminded: "Also, remember that after you go back, immediately Otherwise, you will never have another chance."

Holding the medicine the size of a thumb in his hand, Roger felt it was extremely heavy at the moment.

……

"You can do Roger, just like before."

That night, in front of Leila's house.

Roger took a deep breath, looked down at the red wine in his hand, and touched the clearing potion in his pocket, cheering silently in his heart.

If possible, he would rather never come here again for the rest of his life. This place that used to haunt him in his dreams has now become the most terrifying nightmare in Roger's memory.

It's just that, thinking of Leila's current crazy appearance, it was entirely caused by herself.

Roger convinced himself to turn a blind eye to all this, and he had to restore it all.

Thinking of this, Roger plucked up his courage and pressed the doorbell with a completely different attitude from before.

Ding-dong-

Click!

Outside the door, just the moment Roger pressed the doorbell and it rang.

The closed door opened from the inside, revealing Leila's thin face.

It was only one afternoon, and Leila's appearance seemed to have become a little more haggard. Looking at Roger who appeared at the door, Leila's originally crazy look suddenly burst into excitement.

Letting go of the sharp kitchen knife in his hand, it fell to the ground with a dull sound.

Leila stepped forward and hugged Roger tightly, bursting out huge strength from her slender arms, wishing to integrate his whole body into her body.

"Honey, where have you been, I thought you didn't want me..."

Feeling Layla's love like a spider's web, Roger's face showed an uncomfortable expression, but he still reluctantly replied: "I just went out for a while, you think too much."

After finally breaking free from Leila's embrace, Roger took a deep breath, then raised the red wine in his hand and shook it in front of her.

"Just right, I saw a nice bottle of red wine on the way back, and I plan to have a drink with you."

"As long as it's something you bring, dear, I like it no matter what it is."

Layla's love for Roger became distorted and crazy under the influence of the love potion.

She looked at the red wine in Roger's hand with a happy smile on her face.

……

In the kitchen, look at Leila, who is singing and dancing in the living room.

Roger repeated the trick and poured the clearing potion into one of the wine glasses in front of him.

Holding the wine glass, Roger came to the living room, and handed it to Leila pretending to be natural, while urging him.

"Cheers to our love."

Reaching out to take the wine glass from Roger, Layla looked at the sparkling red wine in the glass.

If there is no doubt about him, he drank the red wine in the glass.

Looking at Leila who drank the red wine, Roger heaved a sigh of relief.

"Honey, this glass of wine seems to have some taste."

After drinking the red wine, Leila looked at Roger in front of her strangely and was about to say something when suddenly the image in her eyes became blurred.

She shook her head, blinked her eyes hard, and the blurred vision in her eyes regained clarity.

Suddenly, Roger, who was full of charm in front of him, seemed to have become extremely ordinary again.

Why is he so obsessed with such an ordinary guy?
He's not even my type.

"Sorry, Roger, I don't know what's wrong with me these days, maybe we need to give each other some time to calm down."

Removing her hand on the back of Roger's hand, Layla moved her position a little farther away from Roger in front of her, and at the same time offered a tactful suggestion of separation.

"The clearing potion has worked!"

Hearing Layla's suggestion to separate, Roger looked at her restored face, not only did not feel lost in his heart, but he clenched his fists happily, trying to control his expression and not screaming.

"Wang Wang!"

However, just the next second when Roger suppressed his inner ecstasy.

From outside the door, the familiar dog barking made the expression on his face instantly freeze.

"Oops, I forgot about Kara!"

Looking down, she looked at the empty wine glass in Leila's hand.

Roger's heart was filled with annoyance.

He eliminated a love, but forgot that there is another 'love' waiting for him.

……

And at the same time that Roger was annoyed by his own carelessness.

On the other side, in the library, the professor lit the contract in his hand, showing a satisfied expression in the mist, and disappeared into the night with the entire library.
