Lolo was naturally upset that the long-awaited duel was stood up. She felt that the ultimate move that she had painstakingly prepared for a month had been wasted. However, she did not see that fellow for the entire day, and she could not help but worry for him, especially when she asked Gage to go to the bakery at noon, but there was no sign of Rob.
Therefore, the girl became a little distracted for the next two battles. After experiencing her first consecutive defeat in days, she was not in the mood to look at the scoreboard after the assessment ended. She said goodbye to Jenny and hurried to the bakery.
Lolo was worried that she would not see that familiar face when she opened the door, or that she would see him suddenly fall into a pool of blood like the last time in the hotel, but that fellow just sat on the sofa and drank black tea leisurely.
"Hey, are you done?" Rob put down his teacup. "Just in time. I baked a new batch of cake. Do you want to try it?"
He said as he stood up from the sofa and walked in the direction of the kitchen.
In the end, Lolo did not say anything and gave him a knee attack that she had not seen in a long time.
A certain someone, who had suddenly suffered a serious injury, spat out the mouthful of tea he hadn't swallowed in time. He clutched his stomach with one hand and supported himself with the other as he sucked in large mouthfuls of cold air. "Hiss … You're taking revenge for a personal grudge. Didn't I just beat you once yesterday? Didn't I return the favor today?" Luo Bu sucked in a breath of cold air in pain.
"What do you mean return the favor? You were obviously afraid that you would lose to me, so you slyly slipped away." Lolo grabbed his collar and said unhappily, "And you made me worry for you. You lost two battles in a row in the afternoon. At least one of them … No, both of them could have been won."
The future Supreme Magister Your Honor smiled bitterly. "Mental strength is also part of the battle …" Halfway through his sentence, he saw the girl raise her fist and changed his words decisively. "I'm sorry, I distracted you. But I'm actually quite happy to know that you care about me so much."
"You … What nonsense are you talking about? I'm just a little worried because you're too weak." Lolo blushed and raised her fist that she had just put down. She looked fierce as if she was going to kill someone. However, the more she tried to explain, the more guilty she seemed, so she had to change the topic in a panic.
"Where did you go today? Why weren't you at school or in the store this morning? Could it be that the grandma next door asked you to take care of her granddaughter? Humph, it seems that her granddaughter is very pretty."
Rob smiled and said gently, "I really didn't mean to stand you up this morning. I had to leave because I had to deal with something. I didn't intend to hide it from you, but before that, let's go eat the cake, okay? If you bake it any more, it will be burnt. "
Lolo was a typical person who could be persuaded by reason but not cowed by force. Although she hated Roland to the core, she could not resist his gentle attitude at all. She sat on the sofa in a daze.
When she came back to her senses, Rob had already cut the cake and served it. He even used a fork to pick up a piece and put it in front of her mouth.
The girl shrank back warily. "What are you doing?"
"Freshly baked cake tastes the best," the future Supreme Magister Your Honor said calmly.
"That's not what I'm asking," Luoluo went crazy and snatched the fork from Roland's hand. "I can eat it myself. I can eat it. From now on, don't touch it."
"Oh, then what do you want to drink?" Rob's service was very attentive.
"Ahhhhh, I'm not here to have a candlelight dinner with you." Lolo could not stand the wave of attacks from Roland. She tossed the fork away and grabbed the plate of cake. She stuffed the entire cake into her mouth and said in a muffled voice, "Quick, quick … Now show me … Sang Wu's … love affair."
She did this on purpose to destroy the ambiguous atmosphere. Gorging was the natural enemy of romance. However, the price she had to pay was that her mouth was stuffed with cake. She looked like a squirrel with puffed cheeks. It was a different kind of cuteness.
Rob was not in a hurry. He first poured a cup of black tea for the girl, then said leisurely, "Is it delicious?"
Lolo wanted to firm her conviction and stop this guy from messing around. However, when she thought of how he had personally baked the cake for her and perhaps prepared it for a long time, she ended up wasting God's gift without thinking. She felt a little sorry for his gentleness. Lolo could not help but feel apologetic. She could not bring herself to say the words that were already at the tip of her tongue. She took the black tea and hesitated for a moment before nodding.
In the end, someone's next sentence startled her.
"If you like it, there's more in the oven … Ha, I'm just joking. But I'm afraid we'll have to leave this place for a while. It won't be easy for you to eat the cake I bake." The youth reached out and caressed the girl's head. "Are you ready?"
"Huh?" Luo Luo raised her head.
Rob's tone was as calm as ever. "There was a small accident. I originally planned to stay with you in Siamus for at least two years, but I didn't expect those guys to come a little faster than I expected." There was one more sentence that the future Supreme Magus Your Honor did not say, which meant that the other party really valued Lolo. It seemed that the S-rank incident that Morteris mentioned was not a lie.
The girl was stunned. "Is it the Pantheon? Did they discover me?"
"It's not the Pantheon, but it's close. It's the Ferdinand Family." Rob did not hide it. He caught the fake Bowers in the morning and interrogated him in the Otherworld in the afternoon. The future Supreme Magus Your Honor did not hold back this time and even used some taboo methods. As a result, he gathered a lot of information in just an hour. This guy admitted that he was a member of the Ferdinand Family, and from his mouth, the future Supreme Magus Your Honor also obtained a piece of bad news. Although the Ferdinand Family's fleet was still trapped in the Ruby Islands, Mograine, one of the parties involved in this marriage, had already sneaked into Gudilesi City a month ago.
The fake Bowers was the first batch of people from the Ferdinand Family to enter the university town, half a month earlier than Mograine. However, he did not see the latter in Gudilesi because only Mograine could contact them, while they could not. It was no wonder that this guy was ordered to verify Lolo's identity as much as possible without alarming her.
Rob felt a little regretful. If he could find Mograine, the future Supreme Magus Your Honor would not mind taking this opportunity to get rid of him. Whether it was that guy's original intention or the Pantheon was playing tricks behind the scenes, in short, Rob did not have a good impression of a guy who dared to steal his wife.
However, the other party was obviously very vigilant. Although he abandoned his fleet and came to Gudilesi alone, he had been very careful to hide his whereabouts after discovering D 'Addario's hostility towards him. Even his subordinates did not know where he was.
