Leila! Leila! Don't go!

Bonnie kept shouting anxiously on the spot, but finally she made up her mind, rushed out the door, and came to Leila's side.

Leila smiled and lowered her eyes and asked, What's wrong?

Bonnie glared at her angrily, I'm just worried about your safety. If you're in danger

Seeing the girl's troubled look, Leila stopped teasing her and changed the subject, How's your review going? Our teacher said the exam will be more difficult this time.

Bonnie's attention was successfully diverted. She tilted her head and thought for a moment before saying, Except for Elvish and mathematics, which I haven't mastered yet, everything else is fine. I just hope I don't encounter that damn herb graphic analysis again. I'm sure that will be the biggest obstacle preventing me from passing.

Don't worry, Bonnie. I can help you in class tomorrow. I have enough experience in this area

The two chatted as they gradually left Dude Town. Leila had already inquired about the approximate location of the destination, and with Bonnie leading the way, she was not worried about getting lost.

Since there was no carriage to Bayek, they had to walk, which was a challenge for two fifteen or sixteen-year-old girls.

As the road became increasingly remote, the two also felt the atmosphere that was unique to the small town of Bayek - quiet, eerie

The two little girls also stopped laughing and talking on the road and became cautious.

Leila was somewhat relieved at this moment that Bonnie was with her, otherwise she wouldn't know if she dared to go on alone.

I think we should go back. It's really dangerous here Bonnie hugged Leila's arm tightly, lowered her head and looked around. She always felt that something in the surrounding woods was staring at them.

It's okay, Bonnie. We'll be there soon. I can already see the town. Leila was also a little uneasy, but she tried to remain calm, speaking in a low voice that only the two of them could hear.

In the shadows of the trees behind them, a single eye was staring at the two of them, with a hint of confusion in its expression.

How did the one person the master was talking about become two? Which one is the person the master was talking about?

Not only Bonnie felt like she was being watched, but Leila too. The moment she stepped into the town, this feeling became stronger and came from all directions.

The two carefully looked around the houses in the town. They were all very dilapidated and didn't look like anyone was living there. However, the sense of being watched from the windows of several of the houses was so strong.

Now Leila began to believe what Bonnie said, and she would not feel surprised if some strange monster appeared here.

Now that I'm here, I might as well go to that gentleman's house and take a look. I don't think he would lie to me Leila made the decision in her heart and her steps became more firm.

Glenn's home was on the outskirts of town, so the two didn't have to walk long.

However, before Leila and the others saw Glenn's house, they heard his voice.

A strange humming sound came from the front. Although the sound was very small, it was easy to hear in this quiet town.

It seems to be his voice. Leila said in surprise.

Are you talking about the gentleman who saved your mother? Bonnie asked.

Yes. Leila took her friend's hand, quickened her pace, and walked towards the direction where the sound came from.

At Glenn's home.

Glenn was very hungry after just coming back from the basement, so he quickly cooked.

He was quite confident in his cooking skills. Even with limited conditions, he could still make some good dishes. The taste was average, but it was much more delicious than what the lower-class people in this world ate.

While fiddling with the kitchen utensils, he unconsciously hummed a little tune and sang a few lines from time to time.

The sound came out of the window, and the old man next door heard it and muttered: This restless little devil is so annoying!

Then he turned to the puppy who was eating and said with a smile, Baby, stay away from that guy next time.

Just as we put all the hot dishes on the table and were about to start eating, there was a knock on the door.

Glenn frowned and walked to the door in confusion.

I gently opened the door a crack and looked out, and saw Leila and a strange girl outside the door.

When she saw Glenn's face, Leila was immediately overjoyed. She lifted her skirt and saluted, Dear sir! Greetings. I didn't formally introduce myself last time. My name is Leila, and this is Bonnie. We've met before.

I didn't expect you to really come. Please come in. Glenn was also a little surprised. He thought the other party didn't dare to come in and would probably be scared back if they went a little deeper. He let the beast go outside just in case. He never thought that the little girl was braver than he thought.

Leila was a little surprised by Glenn's behavior. It was the first time she encountered such a casual feeling.

Excuse me. The two girls passed by Glenn, and Glenn paid more attention to the timid companion who followed Leila.

He was actually willing to come here with his friend, it seemed like they had a very good relationship… Seeing everyone enter the house, he closed the door gently.

The living room was slightly shabby, with a slight musty smell but not strong. There was steaming hot food on the wooden table, and everything was in sight of the two girls.

gentlemen…Just call me Glenn.

Mr. Glenn, haven't you had lunch yet? I'm so sorry to disturb you. Leila expressed some apology to Glenn.

It's okay, I don't take it seriously, but since we're here, let's eat together and try my cooking. Glenn waved his hand as an invitation.

From the moment they met, the girl behaved very politely, as if she was afraid of upsetting Glenn. He was only slightly surprised by this and attributed it to the normal etiquette of the people here.

After hearing this, before Leila could say anything, Bonnie's eyes sparkled with stars.

She didn't notice, but Glenn noticed it keenly.

Hey, prepare to be impressed by my cooking skills! Feel the power of the foodie empire! Glenn was a little proud and straightened his back slightly.

How can this be? This is so rude! We Leila refused repeatedly but was interrupted by Glenn.

No, no, no! Little girl, there's nothing rude about it. I said yes, and it means yes. In my hometown, inviting guests to dinner is the most basic courtesy. If you don't accept it, I will be very disappointed.

Bonnie, who had just been a little depressed because of Leila's rejection, regained hope after hearing this.

Of course we won't let you down, we are willing to eat it. Leila looked a little embarrassed, and there was a flash of surprise in her eyes.

You know, for a civilian family like theirs, it is very difficult to ensure their own food and clothing, and inviting guests to dinner is naturally a taboo. At the same time, the guests will be conscious and not consume the host's food.

Leila couldn't imagine how simple and prosperous this gentleman's hometown must be to have such a custom.

But judging from the layout of his home, he doesn't seem very wealthy. It's even worse than his own. Why is he still willing to stick to this custom?

He is indeed a kind gentleman Leila's eyes showed more admiration.

Glenn arranged seats for the two of them and provided tableware, but the two girls looked confused when faced with the tableware Glenn provided.

Mr. Glenn, what is this Leila picked up two wooden chopsticks and said carefully.
