Isabella's mansion.
Chen Rui was blocked at the door. Isabella didn't want to see him.
In fact, the female guard who stopped Chen Rui was also a little puzzled. This sir has always been a frequent visitor of the mansion, and he often lives in the mansion. His close relationship with madam is by no means comparable to ordinary people. She didn't know why he was listed as an unwelcome person now.
However, in any case, the guards faithfully carried out the orders given by the master.
Chen Rui frowned. He told Obsidian that he would leave the capital and return to the human world today, and he also declined invitations to banquets and dances. Isabella definitely had to find out, but it was a headache for her to refuse to see him now.
I am now playing the role of "Charles" who is deeply in love with her. Do I really have to break in?
Just as Chen Rui was thinking hard about the "plot", a familiar voice sounded from behind, "Hey, Charles, why are you at the door?"
Chen Rui looked back, and it turned out to be Krobelus. It seemed that Miss Emerald Long just happened to come to find her best friend.
"Are you here to look for Inni? Why don't you go in? "Krobelus was a little stunned.
Unless it was a day like the distribution of welfare money, Ms. Emerald Dragon never participated in any boring meetings. She wandered around with the title of a senior consultant all day long, looking for suitable targets to rob. As for the recent political events, it could be said that she knew nothing about them, and she was too lazy to ask.
Chen Rui smiled bitterly and tilted his head at the female guard who stopped him, "Inni refuses to see me, and I don't know what I did wrong."
"Is that so?" Krobelus asked the guard curiously.
The female guard nodded and said, "Miss Krobelus, madam has instructed that she doesn't want to see Sir Charles at any time."
"It turns out to be like this," Miss Emerald Long naturally stood on the side of her good friend. She immediately glared at Chen Rui with dissatisfaction, "You must have done something to make her hate you. Since she doesn't want to see you, then you should hurry up …"
He looked as if he was about to chase them away.
At this moment, Krobelus's eyes suddenly flashed. She saw "Charles'" palm make a gesture to her, as if he was holding something in the air. Miss Long was born with a keen sense of smell. She immediately noticed that it was a big gemstone, bigger than the ones she had given her before. Her tone immediately changed, "Then … I'll take you in and have a good talk with her."
Chen Rui breathed a sigh of relief. Sure enough, in the face of wealth, the Dragons' moral integrity was almost limitless.
Seeing Krobelus leading Chen Rui inside, several guards were anxious and quickly stopped them, "Ms. Krobelus! Please don't make things difficult for us. Madam has orders … "
"Isabella said that I can come and go as I please. This time, I'm just bringing a follower with me."
So be it. Chen Rui shook his head. He would just endure the humiliation for the greater good.
"No way, Miss!"
Miss Long's eyes narrowed, and her oppressive aura made the guards unable to move. Then, she swaggered into the mansion with her follower.
Miss Long was still quite professional (More importantly, she was putting out a long line to catch a big fish). After accepting the gemstone, she led Chen Rui all the way to Isabella's study.
Isabella leaned sideways on the bench, wearing a very casual long dress. Her mature temperament was undoubtedly revealed. One could even faintly see the two seductive bulges on her chest that filled up her underwear. Seeing Krobelus rushing straight into the door with Chen Rui, Isabella frowned.
"Inni, I caught this annoying guy who offended you. You can deal with him however you want!" Miss Long turned her image from negative to positive with a sentence.
Needless to say, Dragons were quite intelligent. A more accurate adjective should be cunning.
"Miss Betty, let me talk to Inni alone to solve some small misunderstandings, okay?"
Krobelus walked back and forth a few steps, looking thoughtful. Her hand behind her stretched out a "V" gesture toward Chen Rui. Of course, this was not the meaning of "victory", but … two gemstones.
Sure enough, she was taking advantage of the situation as expected.
Seeing the human nodding without thinking, Miss Long was overjoyed. She found an excuse and went to the hall.
Isabella turned sideways, gently held her palm on the other arm, and changed into an elegant posture. She covered the bulges on her chest calmly and smiled faintly, "Is there any urgent matter for Sir Charles to come today?"
Although this smile was still beautiful, it was more of a formulaic expression. It was completely different from the previous one, but it was also acting previously. Now … the script should just be different.
Then, let's try this script.
Chen Rui smiled bitterly, "Must there be an urgent matter for me to come to you? I have no place to live in the capital. This is my only home. "
Isabella shook her head lightly, "As we all know, Sir Charles is now a hot figure in front of the regent. As long as you say it, more than one big family will immediately send you mansions and beauties."
Chen Rui sighed, "No matter how luxurious the house is, it can't compare to my own home. This is the only place in the Demon Realm that gives me this feeling. Although it is only a little, it is precious enough. "
"Home?" Isabella directly ignored the last sentence, and her smile was a little more cynical, "A place with family is called home. Doesn't Sir Charles have his own home? "
"I do have my own home. I am now … just a kind of uncontrollable feeling from the heart … or I should call it stupidity." Chen Rui said sadly, "You are right. A place with family is home. This is just your home."
"My home …" Isabella was slightly absent-minded, then she returned to normal, "I'm really a little tired talking to sir."
This was undoubtedly an invitation to leave. Chen Rui was silent for a while, "Inni, I'm here to say goodbye to you. Don't you want to say something?"
"It's Mrs. Isabella." Isabella corrected, "What do you want to hear from me? Some boring words? Or some kind of insincere apology? "
"Do I really make you so annoying?"
Isabella shook her head and said, "Women are very fickle. Many things don't need a reason, and … some feelings are sudden."
"Really?" Chen Rui saw that no one was around, and he sighed softly, "Then before I leave, I, this untactful and annoying guy, will tell you one last thing, or it should be called confession. My real name is Charles Roland, not Charles. Roland is the surname of the royal family of the Long Huang Empire. Originally, I just wanted to use the identity of the heir of the Roland Family, but I didn't expect Nero to see through the royal family's [Body of Light Blessing] … "
Chen Rui told the "secret" of the illegitimate son of Emperor Roland the Great, and he also added the "foreign chapter" of the grand master teacher. This time, he came to the Demon Realm to seek help not only to resolve the crisis of the Roland Family, but also to use the power of the Fallen Angel Empire to use the resources of black potions to obtain the true recognition of Emperor Roland the Great and defeat the other princes.
Chen Rui didn't know how much Isabella learned from Obsidian, so he told the whole story. The only real thing was naturally "Arthur's [Body of Light Blessing].
"I also have the highest [Body of Light Blessing] of the royal family, but I have been prohibited from learning light magic since I was a child. I am also the direct descendant of the royal family, but I can only be stepped on by those 'Royal Highness' who are actually my brothers forever. I … am not reconciled!" When Chen Rui reenacted this drama, he was already quite skilled. His emotions and narration were in place.
"So …" Isabella listened very seriously, but in the end, she shook her head, "I should congratulate you. Your purpose has now been achieved. I have lost my value to you."
Chen Rui sneered in his heart. It seems that "Charles" has been using her. Although it is true, her means are more vicious. If I didn't prepare a backup move in advance, even if I didn't die in the ambush, I would have died in the secret prison.
The drama still had to continue. A self-deprecating smile appeared on his face, "Originally, it should be like this. Moreover, in today's court meeting, I … I should accept Rommel's goodwill on behalf of the elder families … But, I don't know why, I finally chose a decision of 'shouldn't'. "
"Why?"
"There are too many 'should's' in this world, and there are too many 'shouldn's'. I don't want to ask you why you did that. I only know that without Rommel now, you can do more things you want to do … It's just that you are the only person who knows about this matter besides the regent. Please keep it a secret for me."
"Only the dead are the most credible secret keepers. Besides … how do you know what I want to do?" Isabella smiled charmingly, but her voice was cold, "Maybe it is to make a nasty guy disappear forever?"
"That is your freedom. Similarly, my choice is also my freedom." Chen Rui's resolute face showed a firm expression, "As a man, I don't need to explain more, and I won't regret it."
"This man seems to be a bit stupid, but sometimes stupidity is wiser than cleverness." Isabella took a deep look at him, "Your narration and expression are very convincing and infectious, but maybe because I am too sensitive, I always feel that … there seems to be something that has been overlooked. Perhaps things are not so simple? Please forgive me, this is just a woman's intuition. "
Chen Rui was secretly vigilant. This woman is more difficult to deal with than Obsidian in a sense. I can't guess what she wants at all, and I can't grasp the gist of it. However, her wisdom is extraordinary. This kind of true-or-false words makes it difficult to rest assured.
Therefore, he immediately changed the topic, "Actually, I also have a hunch that even if Rommel's plan succeeds in today's court meeting, Inni seems to have a way to get out. This may be … a man's intuition."
"Madam Isabella." Isabella did not explain, but she deliberately emphasized the problem of his title.
"No matter what happened in the past, it is in the past. I hope … we can have a new start, okay? Miss Isabella? If you really think that I don't have this qualification, then I won't bother you anymore, and I will disappear in front of you. "
This "Miss" was exactly what "Charles" used when he first saw Isabella in the Red Spirit Estate. Isabella's eyes moved slightly, and she asked noncommittally, "Even if there will be a lot of dangers and … accidents?"
"'Even if' yes … but I hope to fulfill a promise before these dangers and accidents." Chen Rui looked into Isabella's eyes, "Snow Dallet, in the near future, I will go to the Holy Mountain of Light, personally pick a holy flower, and send it to you."
Isabella's pupils suddenly contracted, and her eyes were instantly filled with a complicated expression. This was a request she made to "Charles" at the beginning. Unexpectedly, he had always remembered it. Just before he was taken away by General Doren, he even held her hand and said.
"I haven't gone to the Holy Mountain of Light to pick that Snow Dallet and give it to you! So, I will never leave just like this! "
Chen Rui was originally just looking for an excuse, but he unexpectedly discovered her abnormal emotional fluctuations. He remembered that when he held Isabella's hand to "confess" before Doren arrived, it seemed to be a little strange. At that time, he thought that it was a sudden incident, so he ignored it. Now that I think about it … Could it be that this Snow Dallet really has a purpose? Or is it an entry point?
Isabella had returned to normal in an instant. There was a strange brilliance in her smile, "Then … I am looking forward to this day, Sir Charles."
The title of "sir" was much better than the indifferent "sir", and it did not make him "disappear". At least, it was a good beginning for the "relationship" between the two parties to break the ice.
However, the promise was just to stabilize her. In this test, he took the initiative to tell Isabella his "secret" in the form of a confession. Perhaps it was also equivalent to telling the mysterious organization, especially the "source" of the black potion. He believed that the force would not deal with him again before trying to fight for this unique resource. This gave him valuable buffer time. As long as the Fallen Angel Capital plan succeeded, the identity of "Charles" would completely "evaporate" like "Master Arthur". Even if the organization had various schemes, it was just a fleeting cloud.
After Chen Rui achieved his goal, he made a sensible gesture. He did not pester anymore and left.
"Snow Dallet …" Isabella's palm holding her arm trembled a little. Her nails deeply pinched into her white jade-like skin, and she didn't even realize that blood was oozing out. There were a few rare traces of grief and pain in her trembling voice. She seemed to remember something unforgettable.
It was not until Krobelus's voice came that she gradually returned to normal.
Chen Rui didn't know Isabella's true emotions. The capital's strategy had come to an end. He had to go to a place to see another beauty first.
The beauty's beauty was even better than Isabella, but for him personally, the danger was 10 times more.
