Chapter 5 Vomit——
"Master?" The servant outside the door had a trembling voice. He was obviously still immersed in the shock of the Hua family's downfall. At this moment, he only dared to urge cautiously.
Bruce seemed to wake up from a dream. He quickly adjusted his expression and regained his usual calmness and dignity. "Okay, got it." He responded softly, but in his heart he was secretly thinking about the next arrangements.
【Ahhh! I want to see it too! I want to see the heroine too! Wuuwuwu, Dad, take me with you too! Please! 】Joyce shouted anxiously in her heart. Her little face looked a little pale because of fatigue and hunger, but her eyes were shining with curiosity and desire for the unknown world.
Bruce originally planned to move to greet the guests, but after hearing Joyce's voice, he paused slightly and said loudly: "Bring the guests to the main hall, and meet here."
[Woo woo woo! Daddy, I love you! You really understand me!] Joyce was so moved that tears streamed down her cheeks. She felt that she was the happiest baby in the world.
Bruce took Joyce from the servant and felt warm in his heart. He thought proudly: My daughter said she loves him! This pure love made him more determined to protect this family.
Justin and Dylan had met Gloria last night , but at that time they didn't know what kind of changes this seemingly ordinary little girl would bring to their Joe family . At this moment, they stood aside, with a hint of curiosity and scrutiny in their eyes.
Soon, the Green family was welcomed in. Seeing the closed doors and windows, they couldn't help but feel a little confused. But when their eyes fell on the baby in Bruce's arms, all doubts disappeared. Mrs. Green was secretly envious. Everyone in the capital knew that Bruce doted on his wife and was in good health. You see, he was able to have another daughter in middle age, and he would hold her in his arms when meeting guests, which shows how important this daughter is in his heart. Look at her old man, who is obviously five years younger than Bruce , but he is already pregnant, his hair is getting thinner, and he has concubines one after another. Mrs. Green was so angry!
Mr. Green didn't have this kind of self-consciousness. He stuck out his belly and greeted her with a smile. " Bruce , last night something happened unexpectedly. I apologize for not hosting you well. My daughter is getting better this morning. I asked her to come and thank the second young master in person." As he spoke, he slightly turned sideways to reveal Gloria behind him . Bruce knew what his daughter was thinking, so he turned her face to the outside so that Gloria could see clearly. Joyce looked closely, but was a little disappointed. In the novel, Gloria was described as the most beautiful and talented woman in the capital. But the little girl in front of her, although she had curved eyebrows, a perky nose, and a small mouth, her face was a little pale, and it was obvious that she had not fully grown up. But her eyes were lively and smart, and she was looking around curiously at this moment. Oh , it seems that falling into the water last night was the opportunity for the heroine to travel through time. Now this body has been replaced by the soul of a modern adult, and the plot is finally here! 】Joyce muttered to herself, with excitement flashing in her eyes.
of the Joe family were shocked to the point of numbness upon hearing this. Traveling through time? Isn't this just reincarnation? They looked at each other in disbelief. Although he had a lot of thoughts in his mind, Bruce, who had been working in the officialdom for so many years , was still able to keep his face calm. He smiled slightly and said politely: " Mr. Green , why do you say that? It's normal for people to be busy yesterday. There's no need to go through so much trouble to come again."
Mr. Green is a smart man. He knows the status and influence of the Joe family in the court. Although Bruce is only a third-rank imperial censor, he dares to speak out in the court, and he dares to talk back to the sky, the earth, and the air. Who dares to provoke him easily? Moreover, he is a lone minister who never attends banquets among colleagues and keeps to himself. Mr. Green thought, if he can take this opportunity to build a good relationship with Bruce, wouldn't he have an extra guarantee in the court?
" Oh, Bruce , your life-saving grace is greater than heaven! Xiaoxue, come over and thank the second master!" Mr. Green urged Gloria .
Gloria walked out generously, her eyes bright and her voice crisp, "Thank you Dylan for saving my life, Xiaoxue has no way to repay you, and I will never forget it!" She looked at Dylan carefully and found that the timid and cowardly little girl who could only cry last night had disappeared. Instead, there was a girl with firm eyes and outstanding temperament. Gloria secretly marveled at the magical power of time travel.
Dylan also noticed the changes in Gloria . He looked at Gloria carefully and found that she was indeed a completely different person from last night. Gloria last night was confused and timid; but Gloria this morning seemed mature, steady and generous. Is it true, as my little sister said, that an adult woman from another world now lives in Gloria 's body? Thinking of this, Dylan's shoulders trembled, and the hairs all over his body stood up!
At the same time, Gloria was also looking at Dylan . Her eyes lit up slightly, and she couldn't even hide the surprise on her face. "Wow, so handsome!" She secretly admired in her heart, "Is this the level of being able to debut as the center?" Her eyes turned to Justin on the side, and she was instantly more amazed. "Oh my god, this one is more handsome! She should choose this big one!" Gloria secretly decided in her heart.
However, all of her thoughts were caught by Joyce . Joyce was furious when she saw Gloria 's eyes lingering on her eldest brother. "[Damn! The heroine is not allowed to covet my eldest brother! My eldest sister-in-law is the daughter of the Minister of Industry, she is a first-class good woman!" She shouted angrily in her heart.
Hearing this, Bruce and Justin were slightly stunned. Minister of Industry? Isn't that Mark, who is known as "harder than the stone in the pit" ? His daughter? Bruce thought to himself that if the Green family really intends to marry the Joe family , then they have to think about it carefully.
Sure enough, after a few pleasantries, Mr. Green revealed his intention to marry. But the person he had in mind was Dylan , after all, Dylan and Gloria were close in age, and he personally saved Gloria last night . However, Gloria was not satisfied with this arrangement. What she wanted was a bigger stage and a better partner! Then, she suddenly turned to Justin , showing what she thought was the sweetest smile, and said with a pure and happy face: " Justin , you are so handsome! Xueer really likes a big brother like you!"
Gloria thought, she is a time traveler, the most special woman in this world, no one can escape her aura of the protagonist! However, Justin already knew her true identity. He looked at her artificial expression and hypocritical smile, and couldn't help feeling sick. "[Ugh - doesn't she think she is the girl of destiny, so everyone has to fall under her charm?]" Justin secretly mocked in his heart.
