Chen Rui bid farewell to Obsidian, followed Isabella to the carriage, and came to the residence of the capital's famous flower.
Compared with the estrangement last time, Isabella seemed to be a lot more enthusiastic. She took his arm and walked all the way in. It was the same kind of public intimacy. Now, there was no blind guy like Lordan who dared to harass them. All the major families in the capital, including the elder families, had included "Charles" in the list of people that must not be provoked.
"You haven't had lunch yet, right?" Isabella took his arm and sat down, "I have asked the maid to prepare your favorite purple wine and small ribs. Take a break first and eat something later."
"Ms. Isabella," Chen Rui looked flattered, "I … I'm not dreaming right? You didn't want to see me last time …"
"You also said last time that we have to start over …" Isabella added. She suddenly let go of her arm and glanced at him bitterly, "Will Sir Charles give me this opportunity?"
Chen Rui looked at Isabella's thin face, and he imagined the scene of facing Jía last time in his mind. He sighed softly, "You have lost weight."
This sentence contained a touch of affection and pity. The corner of Isabella's eyes trembled, and she lowered her gaze to hide it. She touched her face and said, "Is it ugly?"
"That word has never been suitable for you. Although I can't deny that I still have my wife in my heart, you are always the most beautiful and delicate flower in any case. Am I a very fickle man?"
"You are a liar." Isabella bit her lip and said, "You obviously have a wife, but you still deceive other women's hearts outside. But you are also a fool. You still mention other women in front of a woman who wants to court you. Don't you know that women will be jealous? "
Jealousy … Which master of the Devil Realm is this allusion? Fang Xuanling. Lucifer? Chen Rui's mind wandered off, but he had a helpless smile on his face.
"However, there are such stupid women. They clearly know that this man has other women. They clearly know that they belong to two different worlds, but they just can't control themselves." Isabella's eyes suddenly turned red. She clenched her skirt tightly and her body trembled slightly, as if she was trying her best to suppress her emotions.
If the Demon Realm's Little Golden Man Award was to be judged, this woman was definitely a favorite to win. This kind of acting could almost be mistaken as real. Chen Rui secretly praised. He cooperated and held her hand "emotionally", "Miss Isabella …"
"Don't move." Isabella said and let go of his hand, but she gently leaned her forehead on his shoulder and closed her eyes. Drops of tears fell on the sofa and fell on Chen Rui's arm.
After a long while, his slightly red and swollen eyes slowly opened.
"Charles, I'm very tired."
"I'm a strong woman."
"But, you're just a woman after all."
There were only three sentences intermittently. It seemed to be without a beginning and an end.
Chen Rui had a strange feeling in his heart. He could hardly tell whether this woman was really emotional or acting.
Perhaps a good actor needs to be truly devoted when acting. In any case, acting is acting. It can't be done seriously.
"Miss Isabella …"
"Call me Inni …" Isabella raised her head gently. She seemed to have made up her mind. She raised her face gently and slowly moved closer to him. Her reddish blue eyes were a little hazy.
If it was Athena, Kia or Jía, Chen Rui would not hesitate to take the initiative to kiss them, but this was Isabella … The faint floral fragrance in his nose was getting closer and closer. Chen Rui's mind couldn't help but ripple a little. The lavender lips had already touched his mouth.
Forget it, I'll just do it to the end if I want to act.
Anyway, there are still three days, and it's not the first kiss anyway. Anyway, there's no loss …
At the moment when the lips touched, Isabella, who took the initiative, seemed to tremble a little. Then, she pressed her lips heavily on his.
From a light kiss to a passionate kiss of lips and tongues, Chen Rui was a little surprised to find that Isabella's kissing skills were much more rusty than he imagined. It seemed that she had little experience. That's not right. Isn't she a famous social butterfly?
The breathing of the two people who were hugging gradually became heavy. Chen Rui felt that a certain part of the two plump balls that were squeezed on his chest gradually couldn't be suppressed. It shamefully produced a kind of normal man's reaction. This is not good. I'm acting a normal script, not an X-rated one …
Do you really not want to? Isabella's beauty was comparable to Jía's. Especially her unique mature and seductive style, it was particularly moving. Now, she came to my door …
Although Chen Rui despised his hypocrisy and hypocrisy, he still decided to interrupt this passionate scene. It was undeniable that men tended to think with their lower body most of the time, but not all the time or all men.
At that moment, the Super System suddenly sent a message that poison was found. It made Chen Rui's mind wake up suddenly, and his thoughts suddenly disappeared.
Poison?
In terms of the amount and duration of the aura transformation, this poison is quite fierce!
It turns out that her purpose is …
She actually used this method to poison me?
What a Devil's Snare Flower! Sure enough, I'm unknowingly eroded by the poison while I'm obsessed with it.
Chen Rui moved his mind and temporarily stopped the transformation of the poison. His whole body suddenly felt a strong weakness accompanied by waves of numbness. He couldn't gather his strength, and he actually couldn't move.
Isabella slowly loosened her hands that were "affectionately" around his neck. Chen Rui's body suddenly lost its support, and he fell uncontrollably on the sofa. After Isabella entered the hall with Chen Rui, all the maids retreated. There was no one nearby.
When Chen Rui fell, he had quickly turned on the function of automatically absorbing poisonous substances. The feeling of weakness quickly disappeared, but he still pretended to be poisoned on the surface, hoping to launch the most fatal blow at the right time.
"Why did you do this?" Chen Rui's body was "unable to move", but he could still speak. His expression was naturally incredulous.
Isabella didn't have the complacency of succeeding. Her blue eyes showed a faint indifference, "Because I want your life."
"Why?" Chen Rui really couldn't understand her motive to kill him at this time. Even the force behind her should try to win over "Charles" instead of killing him.
Isabella gave him a deep look, "Because you are a liar."
Chen Rui's heart was shocked. This is not a joking or flirting tone. Could it be that she really saw through some flaws? No way, even Obsidian didn't notice it. Besides, there were no twists and turns in the palace previously. I have gotten the huge sum of money very smoothly.
Isabella shook her head again and sighed, "It would be good if you are just a simple liar. Unfortunately, you are not just a liar. Unfortunately …"
A liar, but also not a liar? Chen Rui was at a loss, so he had to ask, "I don't understand what you are talking about. If you really want me to die, it is a luxury to die in the hands of the woman I like. It's just that can you let me die knowing? "
"Your acting skills are quite brilliant. Even if I know that you are acting, I still follow you step by step into the role. I was even almost moved by you. It's a pity that I've already been tricked once many years ago. One can't always fall in the same place, right? "Isabella smiled faintly. Her smile was as cool as water, and there seemed to be a hint of coldness in her indifference.
"This is the fourth time I want to kill you. The first 3 times, I failed." Isabella was quite confident in the toxin, so she admitted some of the previous things without hesitation.
"The first time was in Trevante. I wanted you to die in the hands of the evil eye, but unfortunately, you are lucky. Not only you didn't die, but you also rescued my rogue nephew. Anyway, I was the capital's envoy at the time. As long as I said a word, I can make you, a human spy, deserve to die. Besides … you also killed the coachman, Jardel. I can implicate my sworn enemy, Rommel, in this matter. "
Chen Rui was slightly surprised, "We … met for the first time at that time."
You have this kind of killing intent when you meet for the first time?
Isabella said indifferently, "Because you are a human man, and because I am not a good character, but a poisonous flower. Do I need a more reasonable reason?"
Chen Rui secretly sneered. She is indeed a vicious woman. Even when facing the powerless "Chen Rui" in the Dark Moon, she also used a killer like "evil voodoo". "Don't try to delay time to dissolve the poison.
I secretly made this poison at a great cost. The more you resist, the more violent it will be, and you can't get rid of it. Just like the Devil's Snare flower, gradually, you will lose all your power, and your soul will be annihilated … "Isabella seemed to see through his" intention "and continued," The second time was to ambush you with Lordan's hand. Initially, you rescued my nephew, so I didn't want to kill you again, but you wanted to court death yourself. You wanted to use approaching me to achieve a certain purpose. I can only say that you deserve it. But what surprised me was that your strength clearly did not reach the Demon Overlord, but you killed all 4 of them. By the way, Lordan should want to say something, but the secret potion combined with evil voodoo triggered a implied self-explosion. "
Chen Rui had a sudden realization in his heart. No wonder Lordan was full of confidence at that time and pointed out that his strength had not reached the Demon Emperor. It turned out that Isabella "inadvertently" revealed it. Lordan's death was also Isabella's means.
"The third time was when you were taken away by Doren. Because at that time, I had already determined that you were a liar, a real liar! " Isabella sighed, "Your money-making game is simply unheard of, especially when the place of operation is in the unfamiliar human world. Although my intuition tells me that there may be a problem, I can't find any loopholes."
Chen Rui finally showed a surprised look. His plan was based on an ancient deception on the earth called "Ponzi scheme". Even in contemporary times, many illegal MLM groups used this principle to amass money. It was invented by an Italian-American, Charles. Ponzi, which was why he named himself "Charles".
In short, Ponzi scheme was to use the money of new investors to pay interest and short-term returns to old investors to create the illusion of making money and then defraud more investments. If it was just to make money, he could slowly use the Ponzi scheme to defraud wealth step by step, but his ultimate goal was political, so he added the black potion as a variable.
Chen Rui could be sure that it was the first time that the Demon Realm had such a huge scam. Because it was the first time, even the cunning Obsidian and Josh were fooled. Unexpectedly, this woman, Isabella, noticed the clue!
"Your courage is outstanding. The whole plan is ingenious and thorough, and the high profits are even more tempting. Especially in the early stage, Josh and his son also successfully got a large rebate, which is convincing. However, there is one thing that you may have overlooked, or perhaps I, a paranoid woman, used a trick to discover the flaw. "
Isabella stood up and took a few steps, "You should know that my position is the financial assistant. In fact, as rumored, I have actual control over the empire's finances. The 1 billion black crystal coins that the regent gave you were all taken out of the treasury through my hands. You may not have thought that I would spend a lot of manpower to make a unique mark on each black crystal coin. When you came to the capital again, you brought back 1.2 billion with interest. I also monitored the money carefully. Although the money has been processed by a method similar to light magic, the mark still exists. Then, the 1.2 billion that you gave is simply the original 1 billion capital plus the additional 200 million. At this point, I don't think I need to explain more right … This is actually the stupidest method, but it has exposed your smartest scheme. "
Chen Rui didn't expect to be seen through like this. He sighed secretly. This is not a standalone game. Except for me, the "protagonist", the others are just NPCs who provide dialogue. I am not the only smart person in this world, and there are more than 1 smarter person than me.
He did not make a meaningless defense and asked, "So, why didn't you report to Prince Obsidian? To expose me as a liar? "
"You are going to die anyway, so I will tell you the truth. I am not from the Fallen Angel Empire. The so-called regent's confidant is just a pawn placed by a force called 'Bloodfall' beside Obsidian." Isabella showed a faint sneer, "Whether it is the survival or crisis of the Fallen Angel Empire, what does it have to do with me?"
Bloodfall? It was the first time for Chen Rui to hear the name of this force. It was also the biggest potential enemy of the Demon Realm. The Battle of Crystal Valley had undoubtedly dealt a heavy blow to this force. The layout of the "Bloodfall" was quite huge. The Shadow Empire and the Fallen Angel Empire both had hidden forces. Their ambition could be imagined. I don't know if the Bloody Empire has such an arrangement. If not, does it mean that the Bloodfall is the work of the strongest emperor of the Bloody Empire? In the "peaceful era" where war can't be launched temporarily, they rely on this method to slowly erode the opponent, and finally launch an attack to defeat the 2 empires and unify the Demon Realm?
Or is it a secret alliance of the fallen royal families such as Beelzebub and Leviathan who want to make a comeback and overthrow the 3 empires in one fell swoop?
In any case, judging from the ambition of the "Bloodfall", there will definitely be a time to "cross paths" with this mysterious force again in the future, but not now.
