Team villains except me

Chapter 457 Transparent Stone

"It's very rude to eavesdrop on other people's conversations... kid."

Valerie's face was tense. She gently closed the door and squatted down to look at Yalinxiu. She was not sure how much the little thing had heard, but as long as it was not heard by Musa, everything could be turned around.

"My name is Dunazhute Yalinxiu. I think you don't remember my name, so you will always call me 'little friend'."

Yalinxiu looked at Valerie calmly. It heard all the conversations and knew that Valerie was not emotionally stable yet. It deliberately let Valerie discover it.

"I heard your conversation with Loretta. Do you want me to keep it a secret?"

Yalinxiu took the initiative to propose a negotiation.

Valerie was a little tired of squatting, so she sat down on the ground and casually scratched her messy hair.

"I don't want to talk to you about this, Duana..."

"You can call me Yalinxiu."

"Okay, Yalinxiu, your parents are downstairs. You don't want me to tell them that you are a bad kid who eavesdrops on other people's conversations, right?"

"It's okay. It's okay even if I tell them. I kind of like being a bad kid right now. Valerie, you don't have anything to threaten me with, but I do."

Valerie looked at the child in front of her in surprise, and felt that foreign children nowadays were so mature that they frightened eagles. She waved her hand.

"Well, Yalinxiu, what is your request?"

"That depends on what you want me to do. Do you want me to keep it a secret?"

"Of course--"

"Who should I ask? My parents, or Teacher Musa?"

Valerie was silent.

The stars and the moon were snoring, the lights in the manor that were not turned off were flickering, and the silence was like disappointment in sleepiness. Valerie's emotions bumped into walls everywhere in the corridor, and she was bruised all over.

She wanted to lose control, too, like Loretta, and scream out all the thoughts that she had suppressed, but she was facing a child.

She couldn't do such a thing as venting her anger on her children.

"... Yalinxiu, you may not understand that this place is different from your country. I am not a bad person. I am not intentionally doing something wrong. I am not... I feel sorry for Loretta. I hope you can keep it a secret from your parents. This is Loretta's privacy. I don't want more people to know. It will do more harm than good to Loretta.

As for Musa, I haven't made up my mind yet. To be honest, I'm not sure what to do. If Loretta doesn't hate Musa, I hope Musa can know, but Loretta said she doesn't want Musa to know.

I understand it all, I understand everything, I understand Loretta's concerns, she is right, she is a smart child.

But Musa, how innocent she is, she didn't do anything wrong, you know, she has done a good job in that position, she has no ability to foresee the future. It's unfair to whip her with her past mistakes, she was betrayed by Lanier. "

Valerie pulled at her hair.

"Why do I have to make the choice... I don't want to hurt Loretta, and I don't want to lie to Musa. Loretta loves Musa, so why have I never noticed anything wrong with Loretta? I've always been with Loretta.

Oh my God! I have hurt Musa for so long, why did I become a part of hurting Musa? I also want to protect Musa, but protecting Musa is much more difficult than protecting Loretta. I really... Why can't I do anything well? I hurt Loretta, I let Musa down, I let the progress of the organization stagnate, I am a waste, I am sorry for Musa——"

"You haven't done anything wrong to Musa."

"You are a kid from a foreign country, you don't know anything..."

It wasn't Yalinxiu's voice.

Valerie paused, she raised her head, and hunched her shoulders, as if the sunlight would soon hurt her eyes.

Valerie saw Musa.

She was rescued by Musa when she was most desperate. She begged Musa to take her away from Lanier, but she found that even Musa herself could not completely escape from this sinful country.

Her family forced her to go back and get married, so she begged Musa to save her. She knelt in front of Musa, grabbed her skirt, and screamed at the top of her lungs.

"Okay. Can you help me take care of my daughter?"

Musa said calmly and lifted her up with one hand.

When she looked at Musa at that time, it was like seeing the sun that would never go out.

Musa already understood what had just happened. She looked at Valerie and Yalinxiu, whose hair was messy, and chose to ask Yalinxiu if she wanted to rest first.

"It's very late."

Musa's voice was a little ethereal.

Yalinxiu looked at her and Valerie and nodded.

It learned a lesson at school: when encountering problems, try to solve them by yourself first. When you can't solve them by yourself, you can seek help from your parents and teachers.

So when it sensed the presence of Teacher Musa, it deliberately made a noise.

The longer the misunderstanding lasts, the more painful it becomes. It has heard the story about Teacher Matija and her sister Natalie from Dooku. Love that is deliberately hidden will eventually become difficult to distinguish, and if there is no response, it will turn into resentment, and in the end both parties will be very painful.

Love alone is not enough. Love that is not expressed or felt will eventually become a transparent stone in your shoe, which you cannot find and will cause dull pain.

But wouldn't that be weird?

That's not fair to anyone.

Yalinxiu left on her own, leaving the space for Valerie and Teacher Musa.

……

"Musha, I..."

"Valerie, I never said thank you."

Valerie couldn't judge Musa's emotions from her expression, and she didn't know what Musa's words meant.

Her mind went back and forth between fear and hope, as if she were a lonely sailboat in a storm, able to stop every time she was about to capsize.

She wandered aimlessly and drowsily, waiting for Musa's verdict.

Musa also sat on the ground. She looked at Valerie and thought about the past with her.

Saving Valerie was a complete accident. Valerie cried so hard that she grabbed her skirt and refused to let go. She could tell at a glance that Valerie was different. Valerie had a strong vitality. She would not always be at the bottom of the valley. She would rush to the sky regardless of everything.

Musa didn't want to cause any trouble. At that time, she found a job in Abersgar, and the king was afraid that she would get out of control, so he imposed many restrictions on her.

Those restrictions included her daughter, Loretta.

She gave up her children for her freedom, but watching them being used as weapons against her still made her feel - angry. Discontent.

She knew she had no right to ask anything of her daughter, and she had consciously given up her role as a mother, but if possible, she felt her child should be like Valerie.

At that moment, she thought of a way to rescue Valerie. She used some of her freedom to make Valerie Loretta's guardian.

Valerie did a good job. She could feel that Valerie cared about Loretta and would rather break the law to let Loretta do what she liked.

Valerie cared about her, too.

There were many secret codes between her and Valerie that only the two of them knew. When she was not able to take care of herself, it was Valerie who took care of her. Valerie did a lot for her, and without Valerie, her current situation would be worse.
