The female supporting role who passed through time was poisoned again

Chapter 256 Knot 12
"Senior, this is an apple I just bought from the market. It's very sweet. Do you want to eat it?"

Senior stood by the door, stunned for a second, and he stepped out of the way to let Zihua bring in the apple.

Senior has a single room specially for him here, which is very poorly furnished, with only a single bed, a small round table, and two stools.

Zihua put the basket of apples on the table, "Then I'll go first, goodbye!"

Senior didn't expect that he was about to leave as soon as he put down the basket. He stretched out his hand to block her way, "Miss Gina, I want to talk to you about something."

Zihua looked at him puzzled, and sat on the wooden bench under his signal.

Senior also did it, but he was sitting on a bed, so there was some distance between them.His hands were trembling slightly, and his eyes were looking at the ground, as if he was about to say something particularly grand.

Zihua's eyes flickered slightly, and he picked up the knife on the table and began to peel the apples.

After being silent for a while, Senior said, "I...Miss Gina, I like you, marry me!"

After he finished speaking, he stood up excitedly as if he had already completed some task, and looked at her with his big blue eyes for a moment, like a pirate waiting for a sentence, eager to know the result.

With a swipe of Zihua's hand holding the knife, the sharp edge of the knife easily cut a hole on her thumb, and blood came out from there.

Senior saw it, and hurried forward, "I'm sorry Miss Gina, I didn't mean to scare you, I... your hands are fine!"

He said and wanted to grab Zihua's hand, but Zihua stepped back and said, "It's okay, it just bled a little."

Senior saw her evasion, and the answer she was about to say froze in his heart, "That...Miss Gina, my marriage request..."

Zihua opened her mouth, but Senior stopped what she was about to say at this time, "No, you don't have to give me an answer so early, think about it tonight, and tell me tomorrow morning."

"Don't wait until tomorrow morning, Mr. Senior."

Although Senior's confidence was halved again after hearing this, there was still a little bit of hope in his heart until...

"I'm sorry, I have to reject your marriage request."

After Zihua finished saying this, she clutched her hands and left, leaving only Senior who was stunned in place.

The firelight in the corridor was a bit dim, Zihua let go of his thumb, and the wound that was still bleeding just now had healed, leaving only bloodstains of unknown meaning.

At this point, Zihua knew another secret about herself, that is, after she was injured in these worlds, the wounds would heal automatically.

Not only that, in the next few years, Isabelle has grown from a child to a slim girl. Maple's blond hair was originally shining brightly like the sun, with silver strands mixed in the middle. There were a few fine lines on the faces of Yavida and Phyllis, and Senior was no longer young, and had a faint tendency to enter middle age.

Only Zihua's appearance has not changed, it is still the same as when she was 23 years old. Senior's request for marriage has become less and less confident. In the past, he felt that he was still a good match for her.

But now, the two of them stand together like grown-up elders. Marrying a beautiful and young wife may be a very proud thing for others, but for him it really hurts his self-esteem, so Since Senior made a marriage request to Zihua a year ago, he hasn't mentioned it again.

It's not that I don't want to mention it, but that I don't have the courage to mention it again.

Seeing the two of them like this, Mapel became even more anxious. She thought Zihua didn't have feelings for her son temporarily, so she didn't accept his marriage proposal. But after so many years, her answer was always rejection. , and his son became gray-headed all his life because of her, how could she not feel distressed.

So after thinking about it, seeing that her son followed her with affectionate eyes, but could only get a back, she decided to let Zihua leave the orphanage, and she proposed it not long after her son left. After three months, Senior came to the orphanage again and told him that Zihua proposed to leave the orphanage by himself.

Zihua understands what she thinks, she doesn't blame her, after all, Senior is her son, and even if she can help her take care of those children, she is just an insignificant person after all, so Mapel asked her to leave the orphan When she entered the hospital, she nodded without objection.

Hearing the news that she was going to leave, Isabelle, who had turned 20, also proposed to leave the orphanage. Considering that she was quite old, Mapel agreed.

When Zihua got into the carriage and left the orphanage, Isabelle followed her and left.

The carriage was walking on the country road, and Zihua was lucky enough to be introduced by Mapel, and he could go to a noble family named Clefke to teach the children there how to draw, while Isabelle was Went as her assistant.

The carriage bumped and they walked for countless days and nights. After Isabelle vomited several times, they finally arrived at their destination.

It was a building made of marble, wide and tall, like a castle, with a water lake outside and a huge courtyard inside, full of various shrubs and plants. Trimmed into an ellipse, very regular.

The one who came out to receive them was a woman who seemed to be about the same age as Mapel, with an apron on her body and a rag in her hand.

When they introduced themselves in front of the door, there was the sound of children playing in the trees in the distance, and the clear and ear-piercing laughter resounded throughout the courtyard. This wild sound soon attracted a man with a feather duster in his hand. Middle-aged women.

"Robertson, come down quickly, if you fall later, don't cry... Come down quickly, I just made you a delicious honey cake, if you don't eat it, you will be eaten by Tovey. "

"Hmph, don't use desserts to coax me, I don't want to eat them, don't think I don't know, you made those honey cakes just for yourself, I don't want to become as fat as you."

……

There were constant quarrels in the distance, and it seemed that the boy on the tree would not come down for a while.

The servant Maritis led them into the house. The first thing they saw was Priestley, the owner of the house. Zihua and the others followed her to a place that looked like a study with their luggage in hand, leaving a message of "wait". After waiting, she left, apparently to find Priestley.

Zihua put down her luggage temporarily and took a brief tour of the study with Isabel. The two of them walked around the two sides of the room.
