Chen Ze sighed with melancholy. Then he rubbed Buttface's head. This little guy was looking at him foolishly.
"It seems that you can only stay here for the time being before the Lavra arrives." Chen Ze took out a bowl of dog food that he had specially made for Buttface.
Chen Ze used to have a dog. It was a Golden Retriever. It was very docile, but a little greedy. After more than ten years of raising it, it died of old age.
After that, Chen Ze never raised a dog again. He didn't expect to pick up a dog for free.
There was nothing too particular about dogs. Basically, they were fed what humans ate. However, there were some things that couldn't be eaten that couldn't be fed.
This time, Chen Ze had prepared a very ordinary meal for Buttface. He had added some stir-fried Bill Beef and some vegetables.
"Stay here obediently, okay?" Chen Ze rubbed Buttface's head. Buttface was eating happily. He just wagged his tail as a response to Chen Ze.
Chen Ze didn't care. If Buttface really understood and answered, then Chen Ze would have to consider whether there was a problem with the restoration.
After all, Nina was still in bed and hadn't woken up. This made Chen Ze a little worried.
Originally, Chen Ze planned to walk the dog. However, he thought that if a guest came in after he went out, wouldn't that be the end of him?
Therefore, Chen Ze stayed in the kitchen for more than half an hour.
"I'd better walk the dog." Chen Ze shook his head and was ready to go up to the second floor.
However, just as Chen Ze stepped on the stairs, he heard the wind chime before he went up.
"Welcome to the Dream Restaurant, dear guest … Eh?" Betty frowned and looked at the guest in front of her. She felt that the guest was very familiar, but she couldn't remember who it was.
"Betty, don't tell me you don't remember me?" It was a very old voice. Chen Ze couldn't help but walk to the dining room to take a look. Then, he saw a woman sitting on a chair with a smile.
At a glance, Chen Ze was sure that he had never entertained such a guest before. Because of the other party's age, Chen Ze had no impression of this woman who looked to be in her fifties.
But for some reason, when he looked at the other party's face, he felt a sense of deja vu.
"I'm sorry, sir. Who are you?" Betty asked hesitantly.
"I'm Christine," Christine looked at Betty seriously. Seeing that she was confused, she repeated herself.
"I'm Christine Renna." Betty frowned. She felt like she remembered this name, but she couldn't remember it.
Chen Ze looked at the other party's golden eyes and instantly recalled the Assassin who had almost given Betty a Kidney Shot back in the restaurant.
The guest who had only come once and never came again.
"Betty, this is Christine, the Assassin who tried to stab you in the kidney last time," Chen Ze walked out and explained. It seemed that Betty's memory was similar to a fish's.
"Eh? I remember now! It's you. How did you become like this? " Betty looked at the woman in front of her in surprise. She remembered that Christine was a cute little girl who didn't show any mercy.
But what about this woman now? She was an ordinary woman with freckles on her face and looked very old.
Although her hair was still black, a lot of white hair could be seen.
"Something happened. Can I trouble you to get me something to eat, Manager?" Christine turned her head and looked at Chen Ze. The aura of old age on her body became stronger.
"Okay." Chen Ze nodded. He had just cooked a pot of congee with pork and century egg, so he could just take it out.
However, when he thought of Christine, Chen Ze decided to make an extra Buffy. After all, Christine seemed to like Buffy very much.
"Betty, come in and serve the dishes." Chen Ze called Betty in.
"Manager …" Betty looked very disappointed.
"What's wrong?" Chen Ze frowned and looked at Betty. This didn't seem like Betty. Could it be that something had happened to Christine?
"Sigh, you'll know when you go out." Betty walked out with the dishes, and Chen Ze followed behind.
Then, Chen Ze was a little confused. In just a short while, Christine's hair had all turned white, and the wrinkles on her face had increased.
"This is?" Chen Ze was a little confused. She looked like an old granny in her sixties.
"Buffy, ah. I really miss this thing." Kisten didn't answer. Instead, he took the Buffy and slowly ate it in small bites.
"This is the price, the price for my normal life." Christine slowly ate the Buffy.
Chen Ze and Betty listened quietly from the side. The matter was actually very simple, but it wasn't complicated either.
In order to live a normal life, Christine spent all her wealth to get treatment and remove the aftereffects of the Shadow Alliance.
"At that time, the priest told me that I had too many hidden injuries. If the curse was removed, I might not live for more than a year." Christine slowly took a sip of the congee. It tasted very good.
"I think it's very good. I just want to live a complete life." Christine looked at the age spots on her hand. She had fulfilled her wish.
However, the price was that she lost her appearance and accelerated her aging. Christine could feel that she didn't have much time left. Death was getting closer and closer.
Kistrin could even see the Grim Reaper standing outside the door, quietly watching him as he slowly approached.
"I'm actually quite happy. Although I only have two months to live from sixteen to fifty, there used to be a man who liked me. I married him, but unfortunately, I didn't have time to have children." Looking at Christine's aging appearance, Chen Ze sighed.
Eternal youth was something that many women dreamed of, but for Christine, it had become a curse.
Was it worth it? Chen Ze didn't know. Perhaps for Christine, it was worth it and she was very happy. She was living the life of her dreams.
"This is my meal." Christine put a small box on the table with difficulty, then stood up shakily.
Christine was getting older and older. Time had left its traces on her body.
"Christine, what are you going to do next?" Betty asked, biting her lower lip.
"I plan to … go back to the orphanage where I grew up and enjoy the scenery there." Christine turned around and smiled, then pushed the door open and went out.
"This may be the last time we see Christine." Chen Ze picked up the small box. He didn't care what was inside.
This was the evidence of Christine Renna's existence in the world. It was also the last thing she had. Chen Ze planned to keep it.
