The boy sighed and raked his hair back.
“Call me whatever you want.”
“Alright then, rascal! Why is this land yours?”
Even after giving a warning, he expected her to choose between ‘you’ and ‘sir’. The boy chuckled at the sudden ‘rascal’.
“I originally used it as a secret base. I went far away for a while and when I returned, someone had intruded and built a shack. On my secret base?”
“The one who takes charge first is the rightful owner!”
At the mention of the secret base that the boy had been using first, she broke out in a cold sweat but couldn’t lose. It was her secret base she built!
“Is there any proof that you used it first?”
The boy asked with a serious voice that didn’t fit this childish conversation.
With his expression and tone, it seemed as if they were negotiating national territory.
“Look! I built a house and gathered so much food!”
See, unlike me, you have no house and food. Evelia, who found peace of mind through the existence of the house and food, puffed out her chest and responded.
“Follow me, land thief.”
The boy took out a shovel from behind a large tree near the shack and began to dig shallowly.
Evelia’s face froze at the unexpected digging.
“Are you going to bury me…?”
What would he bury, that chick. The boy smirked down.
“It’s a box where I keep my precious things. The only safe place for me is here. So, will you believe that I used it as a secret base before you?”
No matter how much she racked her little brain, she couldn’t think of an alternative.
“So, what should we do with the land thief? Should we kick your butt?”
Just 10 minutes ago, she had been loudly claiming that she would catch the thief and kick his butt. But now that she was the one about to get kicked, she was taken aback.
He’s definitely the thief… He ate all my cookies and juice… Why should I get kicked?
“Do you want more cookies…?”
I’ll have to try bribing him with cookies.
“You’re not trying to get away with stealing the land by giving cookies, are you, land thief?”
It doesn’t work. He’s a smart kid.
“Alright, I’ll agree! But in return, let me use the shack!”
“Hmm, it’s a bit short… Bring more cookies, juice, and bread in the future. Then I’ll let you use it.”
There’s never been such a brazen robber.
“Shoo.”
“Shoo?”
Evelia timidly resisted, but when the boy raised an eyebrow and retorted,
“Shoo… should we plant it?”
She immediately backed down.
I’m not scared of that guy! It’s an effort to protect my secret base!
The boy’s lips quivered a little, and soon a snickering sound came out.
Looking down at the ground and poking the earth with the tip of her shoe, Evelia looked up in surprise at the sound of laughter, but the boy’s expression was indifferent as if he had never smiled before. I must have heard wrong.
“One more thing.”
The boy added as he covered the box with dirt again.
“Really…!”
I’ll provide the shack, and fill it with cookies, bread, and juice, that’s enough, really it’s too much!! Huh?
“Really what?”
“Agreed!”
Evelia’s eyes stared blankly into space. I’ll get back at you for this humiliation! Definitely!
“The fact that you made a secret base on my land is a secret. You’ve never met me here. And you won’t in the future.”
As the boy brought his index finger to his lips and bent over to meet Evelia’s eyes,
The red eyes facing each other had an overpowering force that was strangely overwhelming.
Evelia pouted her lips and reluctantly nodded her head.
“You’re really small. I have to stoop a lot.”
The boy straightened his back and grumbled.
“But why is it a secret? Are you a criminal? A villain?”
Evelia questioned the boy as she examined him from top to bottom.
He looked wicked and was trying to steal my secret base, so he must be a villain.
It seemed like he was keeping it a secret because he was afraid of being caught by the knights. That was what Evelia thought.
“Yeah. I’m a criminal and a villain. So be careful.”
The boy responded casually as he went back to pick up the shovel behind the tree.
Evelia, who ended up sharing her secret base with the mysterious boy, pretended to kick him while his back was turned, exerting the last bit of her pride to pay back some of her humiliation of the day.
She picked up a fallen pine cone, closed one eye, aimed precisely at the boy’s head, and threw it with all her strength.
Whizz.
Thud!
Direct hit!
“Ah!”
The boy turned around to catch the brazen land thief, but…
“Someday, I’ll pay you back! Go away!!”
She had already run away after leaving a grand declaration of war, spinning her necklace into a bird and escaping.
When Evelia returned to her room, she sat down gloomily hugging a teddy bear.
Until Vivian told her that tonight’s dessert was fruit marshmallows, which she loved the most.
[Star Icon][Star Icon][Star Icon]After a grand declaration, he vanished cheekily.
At the ridiculousness of it all, Ludwig laughed hollowly and touched his mouth as his own smiling face seemed strange.
Male lead reborn without memories — but he still falls for her.
The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…
Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
