Team villains except me

Chapter 203 Extra Story: Sophie and Laila and Jojo

Sophie Jeremy is the noble lady of Beverly Country.

The Jeremy family made their fortunes from glazed products. They were ennobled because of business, and they have been ridiculed by the old-fashioned nobles of Beverly.

The Jeremy family wanted to get rid of the "vulgar" label, and the method they chose was to intermarry with an "elegant" family.

Sophie Jeremy's mother is Lila Russell, the lady of an old aristocratic family with a history of hundreds of years.

Lila Russell is a lady brought up by strict rules, and her every move has the charm of historical precipitation.

But Sophie didn't think so.

She felt that her mother was like a carved doll, even her smile had a fixed angle.

The mother seemed to be living according to some formula.

All situations have corresponding measures, and the corresponding measures are the same standard.

For example, if it's a friend's funeral, you can only sob softly, even if the relationship is close, you can't cry loudly.

But if it is a relative who dies, you must cry loudly to show your intimacy.Even if they are not so familiar, there are often even enemies.

Sophie asked why.

The mother only replied that this is the etiquette of the nobles.

Sophie didn't like it.

She didn't like that her younger brother could gallop the horse, but she had to practice walking gracefully at home with books on her back.

She didn't like that her brother could go out without anything on, while she always had to wear a big-brimmed hat with a veil.

She doesn't like that only her younger brother can play in the glass-making workshop, but she can only watch from afar and cannot go in.

It's not that she doesn't like her brother, it's that she doesn't like these unreasonable rules.

"Why doesn't it make sense? Sophie, only an elegant noble lady can achieve true happiness, just like me marrying your father."

Mother said so.

Sophie was happy that her mother felt that she had achieved real happiness, but she didn't think it had anything to do with the rules.

It's just that the father just happens to be a nice guy.

"But I'm not happy now! Mom, hug me!"

Sophie is a rebellious child.

She will always say "no" to things she hates.

So facing her mother's gentle embrace, Sophie protested.

She had seen how those parents held their babies.

Very hard, face to face, arms tightly wrapped around their child's small body.

Sticky intimacy.

Sophie wants too.

But the mother's hug always has a gap that can pass through the wind, and she can't feel her mother's body temperature.

Sophie had many fights with her mother about it.

It's not a quarrel, it's just her unilateral cold war against her mother.

But never get angry with her.

This frustrates Sophie.

Her resistance has always been successful, she can ride a horse, wear shorts and suspenders that her mother has never worn in her life, and go out without a hat if she doesn't want to.

Only a strong hug and going to Liuli Workshop are two things that my mother has always refused to agree to.

Sophie is just a child.

She couldn't resist the adults who were already very capable, so she could only get the cold embrace and touch those frozen glazed products.

But she was, by and large, a happy child.

Life was carefree, and Laila gradually gave up on making her a standard lady.

-

Lyra looked at her with some vague concern.

"Sophie, girls should be like Liuli, beautiful, elegant, and fragile."

"Mother, then don't treat me like a girl."

Saying so, Sophie let go of the dragonfly she caught.

-

A sudden plague raged in Beverly Country.

Sophie's brother died from the plague.

The entire Jeremy family has been hit hard, and her father has also come to the end of his life in this economic depression and the continuous death of his family.

Leila Russell held it all together.

With hands that haven't done any work.

Leila works many jobs at once.

She taught aristocratic etiquette courses, provided language and action guidance for the theater, and even served as the personal maid of royal princesses in other countries.

Sophie looked at her busy mother, wondering why she worked so hard.

It doesn't matter if she becomes an ordinary person, it doesn't matter if she is not an aristocrat.

It doesn't matter if you don't want the colored glaze industry of the Jeremy family.

It's not like she's the only one named Jeremy.

She told her mother about this idea, but saw her mother become serious.

"Sophie, this is left by your father. Do you want to let your father's hard work go to waste like this?"

That wasn't his father's effort, it was just a means for the Jeremy family to become aristocratic.

Sophie didn't say the words, she just resisted silent.

Lyra also knew she was being too serious.

She stroked Sophie's smooth hair and softened her tone.

"When your father saw me for the first time, he gave me a glazed butterfly..."

"I can give it to you too."

Laila refuses.

"Girls can't do this. Sophie, I don't want you to get hurt."

This seemed to be the end of the matter, but Sophie was not an obedient child.

She slipped into the colored glaze workshop and watched those people firing colored glaze products of various shapes.

She wanted to burn a glazed dragonfly and give it as a present on her mother's birthday.

She wants to prove to her mother that girls can do this too.

She has studied for a long time.

Secretly, bit by bit.

She was inevitably injured, but fortunately, her mother was so busy every day that she didn't notice her wounds at all.

When her glazed dragonfly was half made, her mother fell ill.

Sophie thought it was just exhaustion, or a fever from a cold—

After all, it should be cured.

but not.

Can't be cured.

The mother lying on the bed is still elegant in her gestures, but she is too thin, as if there is only a thin layer.

Sophie cries every day.

She can no longer lose her mother.

She has no other relatives.

She is willing to be the lady her mother asks for, as long as her mother is well.

If Mother was ever well enough, she would never ride again, never laugh again, never take off her heavy sombrero.

But my mother didn't ask her anything at this time.

Mother is very quiet every day, not talking, just staring blankly at the flowers outside the window.

One day, my mother suddenly spoke.

"Sophie, bring me the glazed butterfly in the jewelry box."

Sophie hurried to look for the glazed butterfly, but she ran too fast, and the glazed butterfly was broken in front of her mother.

Sophie knelt down to pick up the remains of the glazed butterfly, but she couldn't put it together.

She wept and begged for her mother's forgiveness.

Lyra just looked at her, still calm.

"Sophie, did you see? Glass is fragile. People are like this. Mom won't be with you for a long time, so take care of yourself, don't run so fast, don't get broken."

Sophie cried and nodded, unable to say anything to keep her mother.

Life and death are not something a mother can decide.

She could only—only show her mother that she was reliable while she was still around.

Although she didn't know if her mother was sad.

Mother never shed tears in front of her.She couldn't figure out how much she occupied in her mother's heart.

Perhaps mother wanted to accompany father early on.It's just that I still have to take care of her, so I persist until now.

Sophie thought wildly, and then quietly went to the glazed workshop to make a glazed butterfly for her mother.

However, Liuli Workshop has been closed because there is not enough funds to maintain its operation.

Sophie had no choice but to give up. She went to the mall to look for glazed products produced by Jeremy's family, but after searching, she found that Jeremy's family did not sell glazed butterflies.

—that was what the father himself did.

Only that one.

Sophie also received a message from the doctor at this time.

My mother's condition deteriorated and she was almost unable to hold on.

Sophie couldn't understand why fate was doing this to her.

She is not very greedy.

She...she just wants to give her mother, a glazed butterfly.

No matter who it is, please come and help her.

Who will save her.

-

No one showed up, but a fire burned in her palm.

Sophie knew what it meant.

She awakened fire magic.

Precious, dangerous, passionate, fire magic.

Mother won't like it.

But mother will definitely like the glazed butterfly.

She made half of the glazed butterfly, which was stitched together with the half of the glazed dragonfly she had made before.

Holding the clear glass products, she ran back to her mother's room in the rain.

Laila woke up, her hair was combed neatly, and there was not a single wrinkle in the hem of her clothes.

She is watching the rain.

She was so weak, but she sat so upright.

"Mom, I'm back."

Sophie walked towards her mother step by step.She took off the steamy coat, squatted down and leaned against her mother weakly.

She put the spliced ​​glazed butterfly and dragonfly on her mother's lap.

"Mom, I'm sorry I broke the gift that Dad gave you. I made you a new one."

With trembling hands, Lyra picked up the childish craft.

She leaned down and gave Sophie an inseparable, overly intimate, ill-formed hug in her life.

Cheek to cheek, hard enough to feel a loving hug.

"Sophie, you are the most important gift I got."

-

The sound of rain gradually picked up.

The glass butterfly and dragonfly fell to the ground along the silky dress, and was shattered again.

Sophie has lost the last of her family.

-

Sophie gradually became the "first lady of the Jeremy family" in the following days.

Until she was admitted to the Absig Fire Magic Court.

She took all her luggage and left Beverly Country.

There are too many dense memories there, she wants to escape.

She is no longer the fire magician of Jeremy's family who has attracted much attention, she has become an ordinary student of Absig.

No one knew that she could make glazed products, no one knew about her miserable family, no one knew about the raging fire under her ladylike image.

The quiet days continued until the team assignment at the beginning of the second grade.

Her teammates seem like good guys, especially her captain, Joann Calholm.

The priest's son of Fabidus seems to have no temper, and he is gentle and makes people want to get close.

Joan is an overly nice person, he loves peace, does not conflict with others, and is very kind.He even gave their team names like "Doves of Peace."

Sophie thought he was more or less pretending, like her ladylike image.

It turned out not to be.

When her team was at a loss for the task of "making a mascot" during the camp, Sophie had no choice but to suggest that she could make colored glaze.

"Sophie, I will protect our mascot and never let it break. I promise."

While other teammates were amazed that Sophie could make Liuli, Joan Calholm made a serious promise.

Sophie was annoyed at what Joann had said.

Who can protect Liuli from being broken!

She didn't do it herself.

But Joan really did it.

Whether it's the glass mascot made for her, or her.

She fell ill during the sleepover, and it was Joan who took care of her.

Always.

Even after the sleepover was over, Joan was still taking care of her.

Joan is such a person.

Sophie huddled under the warm quilt. Looking at Joan's busy figure, she asked him involuntarily.

"Can I call you Jojo?"

She had accumulated the courage for a long time before she dared to ask Joan, and she felt that Joan would definitely refuse.

But Joan nodded and made a "shh" gesture.

"Yes. But can you call me Joan when there are many people? Jojo sounds a bit shy."

Sophie let out a muffled "hmm", and the temperature on her face rose again.

-

Sophie thought that Joan was a nice old man with a bad temper.

But she didn't expect that such Joan would be angry.

"Hello, can I meet you for a cup of coffee at the cafe after school?"

When Sophie passed by Joan's class, she heard Joan asking a girl out.

Sophie felt as if she had downed a whole glass of ponzu vinegar.

But she really has no position to accuse Joan.

It's just that she couldn't hold back.

After dressing up in disguise, she followed Joan and the girl into the cafe.

Joan asked the girl what kind of cake and drink she wanted in a gentlemanly manner.

After Joann paid and came back, he made his request directly.

"I hope you will stop smearing my teammate Sophie Jeremy. She is not what you say, and please stop making disrespectful remarks about Sophie, your boyfriend."

Sophie blushed for a moment.

She, she didn't expect that Joan was, it was for her——

However, the girl on the opposite side retorted in a very bad tone.

"So what? I know girls like Jeremy best. So what do I say? So what does my boyfriend say?"

"From now on, if you or your boyfriend say another bad word about Sophie, I will sue you and your boyfriend. You are my classmate I have been with for more than a year, and you know I am not lying."

"You...you are sick! Bad luck! Who, who wants to say Jeremy!"

The girl got up and left in a panic.

Sophie sipped her coffee with red ears.

She began to believe what Joan said during the sleepover.

-

An obnoxious instructor signs them up for an "Island Scavengers" contest.

Sophie doesn't like islands.

Fire magicians don't like the seaside.

Obviously Qiao An is also a fire magician, but his mood has always been stable.

Even though their team had no chance of winning the game, Joan participated in the game without arrogance.

He also explained the misunderstanding with the "Send You Home Team".

After the game, they also played a water fight together.

Sophie felt that the bottom of the sea was deep and looked scary, but Joan held her hand and never let go until the end of the game.

All the sea water that hit her was blocked by Joan.

Sophie felt that she liked Joan very much.

her jojo.

As the referee, the vice-captain of the "Send You Home Team" saw this scene and made fun of them.

Joan smiled helplessly, but didn't let go of his hand.

-

Sophie still panics when she thinks about the finals of the island scavengers.

The appearance of the evil god made her breathless, Joan frowned and asked the entire "Peace Dove" to take out their artifacts to protect the contestants scattered on the island.

Sophie didn't want to go.

She was too afraid that Joan would die too.

But she couldn't convince herself to stay with Joan selfishly.

If all members of the "Peace Dove" take out their artifacts at the correct locations, they will be able to protect the entire Feixa Island.

She couldn't stop saving those classmates just because she was worried about Qiao An.

She can't.

She was cruel, hugged Joan, and kissed his cheek on tiptoe.

"Jojo, you can't die."

Joan was startled, he smiled slightly, hugged her, and kissed her eyes lightly.

"No. Sophie, the glass won't break."

-

Sophie ran back to Joan's position immediately after the evil god disappeared.

She saw Joan from a distance.

Pale, but safe.

Joan also saw her, and he opened his arms to her.

Sophie fell into the arms of her JoJo crying.

Joan held her tightly.

In the sound of the waves of the sea, Sophie heard Joan's almost choked up voice.

"Sophie, as long as you're okay... as long as you're okay. I love you. Sophie, I love you."

Sophie didn't have time to wipe away the tears.

She kissed Joan's lips.

"I love you too. My Jojo."

-

Glass butterflies and glass dragonflies are spliced ​​together.

Behold, colored glaze will not break.
