Chapter 835! Princess
Chapter 835! Princess
……
Although she was scolded, Valerie was not angry at all. She had just lost the drinking contest and now she took this opportunity to disgust Rita. It was okay to be scolded, and she herself knew that the company dogs... Oh no, it should be that the people in the company were indeed not good people.
But that was where it ended. Valerie then stood up and sat aside. Although her body did not show any resistance, her reason made her feel that it was a little too early to be so intimate.
Seeing Valerie leave Shen Ye, Rita did not sit over, as that would make her look petty. She just looked at Ciri who was sitting on the other side of Shen Ye and asked, "Hi, newcomer, what's your name?"
But Ciri didn't understand what she said at all and continued to drink in small sips.
"Look, Rita, the silicone prosthesis on your body scared her. This girl is a natural person and she definitely doesn't want to pay attention to you." Valerie mocked from the side, probably because she was drunk.
"The leather camouflage on my body is a bit inferior to silicone." Rita glanced at Valerie, then looked at Shen Ye: "What's wrong with her?"
"Her name is Xili, but she doesn't understand what you say." Shen Ye shrugged, "I plan to teach her tomorrow."
Ciri is very smart. As the daughter of time and space and possessing ancient blood, it should be easy for her to learn the language here, right?
If it doesn’t work, ask the system or those people later and try.
Although Shen Ye used the local language, she still recognized the pronunciation of her name, so she looked at Shen Ye in confusion: "Shen, are you calling me?"
"I'm introducing you to them." Shen Ye said, and then he pointed at Rita and Valerie: "This one is called Rita, and this one...her code name is V."
"Very happy to meet all of you."
Since it was an introduction, Ciri, who had received a formal court education, stood up. Unfortunately, she was wearing a military suit that was convenient for movement, not a gorgeous dress, so she did not lift her skirt, but she still knelt gracefully.
The two adult women were stunned by what they saw. They had only seen this kind of etiquette in movies and TV before. This was the first time they saw it in real life, and it was directed at them.
"Is this little girl a noble?" Temperament is something that needs to be cultivated. Valerie has been to Europe and met many important figures, many of whom have restored the traditional European aristocratic etiquette to show their noble status.
But no matter how she looked at it, she felt that the girl in front of her, who was wearing a rather cheap armored suit, had nothing to do with the nobility. However, her temperament was very natural, so, in fact, she did have some connection with the nobility.
"It was before." Shen Ye said directly. Ciri couldn't understand anyway.
Looking at Ciri who sat back down and continued to hold the sword, Valerie continued to ask: "Before? Her family fell into poverty?"
"I guess so!" Shen Ye thought about it and then nodded.
"Poor girl," Valerie said, but there was no sympathy in her tone.
The same goes for Rita standing next to her. To her, nobility is just a word that only exists in movies, and it makes her feel like a company dog.
The two adult women said so much, but Xili didn't understand a word, so she waited for Valerie to finish, tugged at Shen Ye's clothes, and asked: "What are they talking about?"
"They said you look like a princess." Shen Ye sent a message, "They complimented your temperament."
"Then they have good vision. I was indeed a princess before." Ciri raised her head proudly, then immediately lowered it. She thought of her destroyed country and her dead parents.
Seeing her expression, Shen Ye naturally guessed that she was thinking about the past, and asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"
“Nothing.” Ciri shook her head vigorously, and a smile appeared on the strong girl’s face: “Let’s continue drinking!”
……
Because of Ciri's appearance, Rita and Valerie ended the boring drinking contest and started drinking and chatting with Shen Ye. However, there was not much to talk about, so in the end, they were all discussing Ciri's life experience.
In fact, Rita originally had something to talk about. She really wanted to ask Shen Ye about his experience last night and whether he wanted to try it again tonight. After all, she had discussed a new way of playing with Evelyn in the afternoon and she was looking forward to it.
And Valerie... she got a call from her superior Jenkins as soon as she woke up in the morning. First, he asked about her progress, and second, he told her that the company's top management was very concerned about her action and asked her to do a good job. However, he never asked her what she needed, nor did he give her any funds for the activity, so she had to carry out the mission at her own expense.
As for Ciri...
The white-haired girl who had drunk a lot of wine was nodding continuously beside Shen Ye. She was already sleepy...mainly because she couldn't understand the conversation between Shen Ye, Rita and Valerie, otherwise she could have chatted with them for a few sentences.
Looking at the white-haired girl beside him whose consciousness was gradually blurring, Shen Ye took out his cell phone and took a look, then said to Rita and Valerie: "It's past one o'clock, Ciri is sleepy too, I have to take her to bed."
If it were in the real world, after Shen Ye said this, Rita and Valerie should have said that it was not appropriate for a little girl to go to your place to rest, and that she should go to my place... But this is Night City, and Rita and Valerie did not react at all.
It shouldn't be said that there was no reaction. For example, Rita looked at Ciri with a hint of hostility. The little girl was really pretty. She was a little worried about Shen Ye...
"That's it for today, that's all." Valerie was also a little tired. Ever since she started waiting for Shen Ye to come, she had been drinking with Rita. The proportion of her prosthetic implants was far lower than Rita's, and she couldn't take it anymore.
She stood up and walked out, but halfway through, she turned back and said to Shen Ye: "I drove here, do you want me to take you?"
"You can still drive after drinking so much?" Shen Ye frowned.
"Don't worry, I'm not drunk yet, and the police in Night City don't care about drunk driving. Besides, I'm a company dog..." Valerie joked with self-deprecation: "No one dares to care."
"Okay then." Shen Ye thought about it, but did not refuse. (Reminder: This is Night City, please do not drink and drive in real life)
Then he looked at Rita and asked, "What about you?"
"I still have to be on duty." Rita sighed, "Okay, no need to trouble Anna."
"Then let's go first."
Then, Shen Ye leaned over and pinched Xili's face, and said: "Xili, wake up, we should go back."
“Aren’t there any beds in the tavern here?” Ciri muttered without opening her eyes.
"Yes, but it's not for sleeping... Never mind, I'll carry you on my back."
As he spoke, Shen Ye pulled Xili up from the sofa in the booth, then carried her on his back and walked out of the bar.
