Pericles' words were also merciless. After Hilde listened. She didn't continue talking. He just shook his head, looking helpless. Pericles had made it very clear that whether the prophecy was true or he had done something wrong before, and whether the expulsion of Hilde really led to the expulsion of Athena, these were not important now, because things had developed to this point and there was no regret medicine to take. Therefore, all Pericles could do was the current situation. The two ended the topic. Soon they walked into the mansion. Hilde was familiar with Pericles' house. Even after two years, the house had not changed at all. In the past, Aspasia would clean up the house every once in a while to make it more beautiful and comfortable. But now that Aspasia had left, Pericles lived here alone and would not clean up these things. Hilde could see that the flowers and vines that Aspasia had planted were now completely dead. It was obvious that they were the result of lack of care. The garden was in a state of desolation, a far cry from the thriving business of the past. Seeing this, Hilde couldn't help but think that Pericles could also buy a gardening slave to take care of these things, but he didn't do so, perhaps because these things easily touched Pericles' sore spot. But think about it.
Actually compared to Hilde. I'm afraid that what Pericles cared about more was Aspasia. "Ah, the house is still the same, with all those flowers and plants, what a pity." Hilde said this deliberately to provoke Pericles, "Why don't you ask someone to come and clean it up? I heard that you still live with Rhodes. How can a little girl like Rhodes tolerate a sour and smelly old man like you?" "..." Pericles simply ignored Hilde. "Oh, I really feel sorry for Rhodes." "Don't worry about Rhodes's affairs." "I'm not worried, but you have to consider Rhode's feelings. Although she is the daughter of a poor family, she is still a girl. I heard that Rhode is only sixteen years old. My God, a sixteen-year-old girl living in a lifeless mansion, looking at an old man like you who is like a stone in the mud pit every day, such a life is really too hard." Hilde deliberately walked in front of Pericles, then turned around and said with a smile, "A girl like Rhode would definitely not dare to say it to her face, but she probably missed the countryside with lush grass and singing birds in her heart. This place, to put it bluntly, is a prison." "Have you said enough?" "Do you want me to shut up?" "Of course not, but we are almost there." "I know. I've lived here for fifteen years. How could I not know whether it's here or not?" "but you……" Pericles was about to say something. But in the blink of an eye, Hilde disappeared. Pericles looked around, and he even suspected that his eyes were blurry, so this happened. However, if he looked carefully, it seemed that it was indeed his illusion. Hilde was indeed gone, and she disappeared directly in front of him. Pericles suddenly felt that something was not right, so he ignored everything else and walked directly to where Rhodes was. When Pericles rushed into the hall angrily. But I found that Hilde had already arrived here. "I didn't expect Miss Rhodes to be so cute."
"...Xi, Sister Hilde, you are more beautiful." After Pericles arrived. I found Hilde sitting next to Rhode, leaning sideways, talking to him with a smile. Rhode was now completely frozen, sitting there at a loss, like a scared little rabbit. At this time, Hilde continued, "I originally thought that Rhode, the oracle who saved Athens, should be a very rough image, but the moment I saw you, I was really surprised. You are so beautiful. Lord Poseidon's taste is really amazing." "Thank you, thank you for the compliment." Rhodes was also very embarrassed. Although she was under the influence of Pericles, she was somewhat afraid of Hilde. But in fact, Rhodes also admired Hilde. From what others said, especially the servants working in Pericles' mansion, Hilde was as beautiful as a goddess and treated slaves very well. She did not like Pericles, but she was very kind to everyone except Pericles. Therefore, in Rhode's mind, Hilde was split into two states. One state was the evil Hilde in Pericles' words, and the other was the goddess in other people's minds, the gentle Hilde. Therefore. When Hilde suddenly appeared in front of Rod. Rhodes was startled at first. Then, I was immersed in Hilde's beauty. She was not afraid of Hilde's silver hair and crimson eyes, but was deeply fascinated by them. In her opinion, such colors were truly rare and beautiful in the world. The 9th tune, the first section, the very failed father The silver hair, with a faint glow, was like a swordfish leaping in the sea, with the scales shining on its body, and the soft and delicate face made it easy for people to relax their vigilance. In addition, after Hilde appeared, she treated Rhode very gently, and cared about Rhode's thoughts in both words and actions. Therefore, Rhode, who could sense this, suddenly felt as if he had fallen, and his heart was very warm. At this time, Hilde continued: "I really regret not coming to see you the first time." "Me, me too!" Rhodes was also somewhat infected. She couldn't help but reach out and hold Hilde's hand. "Can I call you sister?" "Of course, Rod...sister." Now, a drop of cold sweat appeared on Pericles' face. My previous instructions. I'm afraid it's all over. "Cough cough." Pericles couldn't help it, so he coughed twice, interrupting the orange atmosphere. At this time, Sophia raised her head, looked at Pericles, smiled and said, "You are so slow." "You just walked in without saying a word."
"That's because I can't bear the excitement of meeting Rod." Hilde didn't care about Pericles's thoughts at all. Now, Rhodes has let down all his guard. When Hilde showed up, Rhode was indeed startled, and he was hostile to her. This hostility was normal, but Hilde didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Instead, she sat down, greeted Rhode very gently, and introduced herself. After her attitude became very gentle, Rhode's attitude towards her also eased up at once. After a few simple words, the relationship between the two people quickly became closer. Rhode is indeed a very simple girl. It was so simple that Hilde didn't need to put in much effort. That would make Rhodes fall in love with him. Hilde still has her own way of thinking. Her beauty is different from other coquettish and slutty girls. Although women may feel repulsive to beautiful women, they will be very envious and admire those who are beautiful to a certain level, and their attitude will immediately change 360 degrees. This is even more true for a girl like Rhode. She was a poor family struggling to survive and starve. Even if she has transformed into the glorious appearance she is now, she will still keep the same ideas as before. A person can't even have enough food to eat. Where do those messy ideas come from? So, after meeting Hilde, who was rumored to be very kind to the poor and slaves. Rhodes naturally has a natural liking for Hilde. "Lord Pericles." At this time, Rhode remembered what Pericles had told him just now. He had forgotten about it and didn't expect that he would fall so soon. So, Rhode quickly sat aside, and then coughed twice to cover up his panic and embarrassment, and said to Hilde: "Sister Hilde, I'm sorry, I'm not used to being too close to strangers." "Is it you who is not used to it, or is it Pericles who is not used to it?" "No, no..." Seeing Rhode's flustered look, Hilde said: "Don't worry, Pericles must be afraid that I would kidnap you. But you are the oracle of Poseidon, how could I kidnap you? If you want to run away, you have to run away willingly." Hilde said here, turned her head and glanced at Pericles, and said helplessly, "It's a pity that Pericles is a bachelor and really doesn't know how to take care of a little girl. You have worked so hard, sister." "Sister Hilde, I am doing well, and Lord Pericles is also very good to me." "That's because you've suffered so much that your life now seems so sweet." Hilde was teasing Pericles for not understanding women's hearts. Living a very rough life. After hearing all this, Pericles' face was covered with black lines. He had been silent just now, but now, he couldn't help it. So, Pericles took two steps forward and came to Hilde and said, "Your Majesty, I hope you can not say such words in front of Rhode that will cause misunderstanding. Rhode is still a child and lacks correct judgment in many things. Besides, I think the life I have given Rhode is already a very rich life." "That's the funniest joke I've heard in Athens." Hilde seemed to be mocking. He looked at Pericles coldly. "Also, now is the time for girls to chat with each other, can you please leave now?" "No, I'm Rhodes's guardian, and I have the right to stay here."
"Oh, really?" Hilde smiled faintly, then turned around and asked, "Rod, I'm curious. You are also an ordinary girl living here. If you have any physical problems, how would you deal with it?" "what?" Rhodes was stunned for a moment. "what's the situation?" "That's it..." Hilde leaned close to Rhode's ear and finished speaking in a low voice. After hearing what Rhode said, he lowered his head in embarrassment and said timidly, "I, I know... I just used the method my mother taught me." "Oh……" Hilde turned around and looked at Pericles. "Have you never cared about this?" "Why should I care?" Pericles replied, frowning. "Aren't you Rhode's guardian? That means you are his father. Isn't it normal for a father to care about his daughter's health?" Hilde said provocatively. But as soon as she finished speaking, Hilde seemed to suddenly remember something and said with a smile, "That's right. Anyway, you have never cared about my health in the more than ten years I have been here. Fortunately, I have a gentle mother... Oh, it's so uncomfortable." "..." Hearing this, Rhodes couldn't help but glance at Pericles. He seemed a little desperate. In fact, the most desperate person was Hilde at that time. As a male office worker who has lived for more than 20 years, Hilde has grown up step by step since she was a baby, so she doesn’t have that much psychological pressure. However, when she got her first period, Hilde almost went crazy. She experienced abdominal pain for the first time, and when she woke up, she found her clothes were all red. Although Hilde knew what that was, she still screamed directly, completely losing her usual calm demeanor. So, Hilde is quite experienced. The 9th tune, the 2nd section, the very contented girl "Rod, you don't know. Don't talk about this... When I was growing up, Pericles never cared about my situation. When I was sick and dying, Pericles didn't come to see me." Hilde said this. Pericles was also stunned. Hilde was known for his strong body. He had never been sick since he was a child, so how could he be dying? So Pericles couldn't help but say, "You were never sick when you were a child." "Look, Rod, he doesn't even remember that I was ever sick." Oops. Only then did Pericles realize it. This is a trap that Hilde dug.
Just waiting for Pericles to jump in. Pericles covered his face helplessly and then sighed. Rhode also agreed with this. She looked at Pericles with a hint of resentment and blame, as if to say, you are going too far. Pericles knew that Rhode still believed Hilde's lies, so, knowing that he was powerless, Pericles turned around and left. Pericles felt that he could not control what would happen next. Anyway, looking at the current situation, whether he was there or not, the result should be the same. It would be better to find a place where you can quiet your ears. After Pericles turned and left.
