Skretil's Ignorance Walker

"I'm so glad you're okay!"

As soon as the other party saw Antrela and the others, he walked over quickly and enthusiastically, then hugged Antrela.

"When we heard that Xidao City had been breached and you were missing, we were so worried! Fortunately, you are all safe and sound."

"Yeah, me too. After I lost contact with you guys, I didn't know what to do..."

The two of them hugged each other and spoke to each other with tears in their eyes. They were so excited that they almost forgot the people around them.

Renee walked up to her and gently pulled her skirt, and said in a baby voice:

"Mother, there are us too! We are all fine!"

After hearing Renee's voice, the other party finally let go of Antrela, then squatted down and touched Renee's head.

"Well, I know you'll be fine, baby. You must have suffered a lot during this period. Let your dad take you out to have some fun when the time comes."

"Great!"

Renee seemed very happy at this time. After dancing for a while, she snuggled into the other's arms, like a baby bird returning to the nest where she was born.

While she was happy, she looked at the other people around Antrela. Except for Bella, her eyes were fixed on Lu Ren.

"Um……?"

As if she had some doubts, she stood up, walked to Lu Ren, looked at her carefully, but her eyes were full of suspicion.

"You are……"

“Lu Ren, you are…Lina?”

Lu Ren was also a little confused at this time. When she saw the other person's appearance, she thought it was Marlene at first, but from the fact that Leni called her mother just now, it seemed that it should be Lina.

However, the other person's appearance seemed somewhat different from the Lina in Lu Ren's memory. Her delicate face lacked the innocence and vigor of a girl, and had more of the dignity and stability of a mature woman.

Compared to the girl in his memory, she looked more like a young woman, which made Lu Ren a little unsure.

"Hey, it's really you. When did you grow a pair of cat ears on your head?"

After that, the other party curiously touched the cat's eye on Lu Ren's head, which made Lu Ren sure that she should be Lina. Although her temperament and appearance have changed a little, her essence has not changed. She is still the same Lina, but after some things and the precipitation of time, she has become more like a lady. Although she is originally a lady, Lu Ren is still used to her who is more like an ordinary girl.

"Don't touch me, or I'll pull it off..."

Lu Ren gently slapped Lina's hand away and made a look of disgust, but Lina no longer argued with her like before.

"Really? Sorry, you look the same as before, so I'm a little unsure."

Lina apologized to Lu Ren with a smile. Her behavior seemed to tell Lu Ren that she was a dignified young lady, which made Lu Ren very uncomfortable.

"It was Master Lu Ren who saved us on the road!"

Seeing her mother, Renee became more talkative. She stood next to Lina and spoke loudly, which attracted Lina's attention.

"Really? Tell me what dangers you encountered on the road?"

Lina spoke gently to Leni, and the little girl began to vividly describe everything they encountered on the road. After listening, Lina thanked Lu Ren again.

"Thanks to you, otherwise Antrela and the others might not be able to come back. On behalf of Lord Wildi, I would like to express my highest gratitude to you."

After saying that, Lina bowed to Lu Ren, but this made Lu Ren very uncomfortable, so she quickly waved her hands to indicate that it was all a trivial matter.

"Master Wildi and Sister Marlene are in the study now. You can go over and meet them first."

After standing here for so long, Lina finally asked Antrela and the others to go and reunite with Wildi and the others first, while she held Lu Renna's hand.

"As for you, are you interested in having some afternoon tea with me?"

Lina smiled kindly, and Lu Ren looked at the backs of Antrela and the others, thinking that it was a family reunion and there seemed no need for him to join in the fun, so he agreed to Lina's request.

Then Lina took Lu Ren and Winnie to the balcony on the first floor, where tables, chairs and a table full of exquisite snacks had already been prepared. After Lu Ren and Lina sat down, a maid immediately came forward to make tea for them.

"This is black tea from Godol. I wonder if it suits your taste. Or do you prefer milk tea?"

Lina picked up the teacup, took a sip and said to Lu Ren. Her every move showed the elegance and nobility of an aristocrat, but this made Lu Ren feel a little uncomfortable and disgusted.

"I still like you better before than now."

Facing her former friend, Lu Ren said frankly that she didn't know if this would offend Lina now, so after she finished speaking, she drank the tea in front of her and started to eat the snacks on the table.

"Yeah……"

After hearing Lu Ren's words, Lina fell into a brief silence. She looked at Lu Ren, and her eyes seemed to reveal some emotion.

"People always change."

"Is this so..."

Hearing Lina say this, Lu Ren's heart couldn't help but become a little gloomy. She was still very much looking forward to meeting Lina again, but now she had a feeling of reuniting with Brother Xun and Runtu, although in terms of social status, Lu Ren herself was Runtu.

At this time, Lu Ren didn't want to stay here any longer. Since Lina and the others were fine, he had nothing to worry about. So Lu Ren decided to leave after he had eaten and drunk enough.

But Lina suddenly spoke again:

"Actually, I'm a little tired too, but we just met again, I can't just give you a cold shoulder right away, can I?"

After saying that, Lina leaned back in her chair and stretched lazily. Seeing this, Lu Ren felt that the familiar Lina seemed to have returned again.

"Seeing that you are all right, I feel relieved."

"Of course. Don't you think about who we are? It's not that easy to die."

Seeing Lina put one hand on the table to support her head after eating a cookie, Lu Ren also became interested.

"I haven't seen you for a few years. You've become a mother."

Hearing Lu Ren's words, Lina laughed a few times unhappily, then looked at Lu Ren's cute and beautiful little face.

"It's been six years. Normally, it should be like this. But why did you come back alone? I thought you would bring back a dozen or twenty people from the Iris Kingdom and the Rat Kingdom."

Lina's words almost made Lu Ren spit out the snack that had just entered his mouth. She quickly picked up the tea that the maid next to her had brewed for her and drank it all again.

"You make it sound like I'm the kind of person whose mind is filled with nothing but bitterness."

Although he said this, Lu Ren lost his confidence when he thought of Fafuwei and her group who were still on the road.

"Really? Did you really come back alone? I remember you brought a dog girl with you when you left? Didn't she die on the way? Or did you play with her and abandon her?"
