Ryukino's soft comforting voice made Nunnali nod and relax a little. While pushing Nunnali's wheelchair to the dining hall, Xiao Ran also said softly behind her, "Don't worry, she's just a princess of the Britannia royal family. She doesn't have anything more than others. Besides, Euphemia is also a very kind person. She won't have any opinions or thoughts about you."
"I understand, Mr. Xiao Ran." Nunnali lowered her head and spoke softly, but she didn't know how to explain her identity to Xiao Ran. She was even more worried that her identity would be exposed.
Xiao Ran said very calmly, "You don't have to say anything if you don't want to. You're just an ordinary person here, and your identity is just my little sister. Nothing else is important. Since Lulu Xiu has already handed you over to me for treatment, how can he not tell me your true identity?"
"Don't worry, if you don't want your identity to be exposed, we won't either. We'll also stay here with you. Live like before and stay here peacefully. No matter what happens, we'll protect you. It won't be long before I can treat you. When that time comes, if you want to leave, I'll send you back to Lulu Xiu's side."
Nunnali couldn't see, but her ears were fine. When she heard Xiao Ran's words, a panicked expression appeared on her face, but soon an expectant expression appeared on her face. She pursed her lips and said with a smile, "I understand. Thank you, Mr. Xiao Ran."
"You're welcome." Xiao Ran smiled and reached out to stroke Nunnali's head. He said softly, "Just pretend that you've never had anything to do with the Britannia royal family. Your current identity is your true identity."
"Okay."
After pushing Nunnali's wheelchair and entering the dining hall with Ryukino, Xiao Ran saw Euphemia who was already dressed up and sitting at the dining table with her hands supporting her chin. At this moment, the table was already filled with sumptuous dishes, but after seeing Xiao Ran, she immediately stood up from the chair full of energy, causing the chair under her to make some ear-piercing sounds.
But soon, Euphemia saw Xiao Ran pushing the wheelchair and the girl in it. She also saw the two girls standing on the left and right sides of the wheelchair. After seeing the beautiful appearances of the three girls, including the girl in the wheelchair, her happy face suddenly froze and she tilted her head slightly.
Xiao Ran took the initiative to push the wheelchair over, but he stopped in place. After walking to about a meter away from Euphemia, Xiao Ran stopped and called out to Euphemia, "Your Highness."
Euphemia, who was looking at the three girls in a daze, recovered from Xiao Ran's call. She inexplicably felt that her mood seemed to have some strange changes. After seeing the girl in the wheelchair, Euphemia had a strange feeling in her heart. The strange feeling in her heart made Euphemia somewhat unsure whether this feeling appeared because of the girl in the wheelchair or because of other reasons.
Euphemia came back to her senses and said, "Oh, Mr. Knight, are these three ladies your family? Can you introduce them to me?"
"Yes." Xiao Ran nodded and began to introduce the three people he brought with him to Euphoria. "Nunnally Lampetou is my friend's younger sister. Due to some special reasons, I'm taking care of her for the time being. She's like a younger sister to me."
Lamperdi was the surname Luluxiu was using now. Naturally, Nunnally's surname was also changed because of this reason. This was also a disguise for her identity.
"Nunnally … Luluxiu …" Euphemia was in a daze again. She looked at Xiao Ran and then at Nunnally. One was called Luluxiu, and the other was called Nunnally. This made Euphemia feel very strange. She suddenly had a sense of déjà vu from the past, as if a boy and a girl, one big and one small, suddenly appeared in front of her.
"Your Highness?" Euphemia didn't know when she lowered her head again, but when she heard this voice, she raised her head again to look at Xiao Ran. However, the mask covered Xiao Ran's face, making Euphemia feel that it was an illusion. She shook her head abruptly and smiled at Xiao Ran apologetically, "I'm sorry, Mr. Knight, I was distracted. Hello, Nunnally. You can stay here with peace of mind. I'll have someone take good care of you when Mr. Knight is not here."
"Okay." Nunnally clasped her hands together and nervously clamped her body. She lowered her head and hummed softly like a kitten, "Okay. Thank … Thank … Your Highness."
"You're welcome." Euphemia smiled at Nunnally. She could already tell that the wheelchair-bound girl in front of her didn't only have trouble with her legs, but also seemed to have some problems with her eyes. However, Euphemia didn't show any disdain because of this. Instead, she was filled with an inexplicable sense of pity for Nunnally.
She waved her hand and introduced the two people to Euphemia, "This is Ryukino, the knight that I wanted to introduce to Your Highness. Although she's only a young woman, she's definitely qualified to be the strongest knight. Whether it's a knight or a steward, she's quite outstanding in terms of ability. If Your Highness doesn't object, she'll be Your Highness' steward and captain of the guards at the same time."
Xiao Ran had already told Ryukino about the steward and captain of the guards before returning to the Governor-General's Mansion. Naturally, the latter wouldn't have any objections to Xiao Ran's arrangement. After Xiao Ran introduced her to Euphemia, Ryukino also nodded gently at Euphemia and bowed slightly, "Your Highness."
"Of course, I have no objection to the person that Mr. Knight introduced to me." Euphemia quickly shook her head and reached out to help Ryukino up. She smiled at Ryukino and said, "Then, Miss Ryukino, my safety and affairs will be in your hands from now on."
"Yes." Ryukino looked gentle and warm. She smiled at Euphemia and nodded, "Your Highness can call me Steward from now on. Thank you for your trust, Your Highness. I will do my best to do my job well."
"This is my maid, Qian Qian. Although she's a maid, she basically doesn't know how to do anything. Her biggest role is to play with you."
Hearing Xiao Ran's introduction, the corner of her mouth couldn't help but twitch twice. She forced herself to maintain a smile and bowed to Euphemia. After that, she stood aside without saying a word.
For a person who was introduced as a maid, her attitude didn't become cold or disdainful. She said a few words and said that there would be other servants to do it. Although she was very unhappy, she still reluctantly accepted it in her heart. Anyway, she didn't have to do anything. Wasn't this just in line with her wishes?
Then, Xiao Ran, Steward, and Nunnally were left in the dining hall by Euphemia to have their first meal together. Xiao Ran, as her personal knight, as long as Euphemia didn't mind, he was naturally qualified to sit at the dining table. And Steward, because of the same reason, plus he was Xiao Ran's family member, naturally he could also stay. As for Nunnally, although she didn't have an identity, just the fact that she was Xiao Ran's sister was enough.
However, now that Xiao Ran had forcefully applied the name Sissy to her, she could only be brought to another place to enjoy her own breakfast because of her identity as a maid. Although she stayed, it wasn't appropriate for her to stay on such an occasion. There were some unwritten rules that should be followed.
By the time they finished their breakfast, half an hour had already passed. Compared to Xiao Ran and the others who had been eating leisurely for half an hour and being served by servants, the breakfast they had was merely the standard arrangement for servants. After a few minutes of eating, they were brought back to the dining hall. She then stared resentfully at Xiao Ran, who was eating leisurely from afar. She only felt that the heavens were unfair to let her meet one, no, two unreasonable bastards. Moreover, she actually had to stand aside and watch the two of them enjoy delicious food that was of a much higher grade than hers.
However, Ryukino didn't have the time to care about it. After eating, Ryukino was brought to change his clothes. Although this was the Governor's Mansion, it wasn't difficult to find a set of female military uniform for Steward. As long as the size was suitable, there wouldn't be a problem. Anyway, new custom-made clothes would probably be delivered to Steward by tonight.
Whenever it was convenient to eat something delicious, she would carefully and slowly put it into her handkerchief.
After changing into her clothes, Ryukino was dressed in a red skirt, black stockings, and a white half-waist jacket. Ryukino looked even taller and grander, giving Steward the feeling that she had started working.
When everything was ready, it was time to set off. The vehicles were already prepared outside the mansion. After watching Euphemia and Steward Zhao get into a special car, Xiao Ran turned to look at the new butler of the Governor's Mansion who came to see them off. He said lightly, "Those two girls are my family, so I don't want to see them suffer any grievances, not even a little bit. You should know what to do."
The butler's breath stopped for a moment, and her tall and plump body stiffened. She then nodded silently, "They will receive the best care in the Governor's Mansion."
Although Xiao Ran's warning was soft, the meaning behind it was the opposite. One must know that this housekeeper knew everything that happened last night. From the moment Xiao Ran appeared and beat up the officials, she was fully aware of everything that happened. She also knew that Xiao Ran wouldn't care about her identity as the housekeeper of the Governor's Mansion. If she really made Xiao Ran unhappy, then she would definitely suffer for the rest of her life.
Although Xiao Ran was Euphemia's personal knight, he didn't sit in the most luxurious car with her. With Steward Zhao protecting Euphemia, Xiao Ran believed that Steward Zhao would be able to solve any danger. He boarded the front passenger seat of the first car and waved his hand gently to let the motorcade set off for the TV station in the 11th district.
On the way to the TV station, Steward Zhao displayed his extraordinary ability to deal with things in front of Euphemia. Even though he didn't know the current situation in the 11th district, after knowing about Euphemia's schedule today, he quickly wrote a speech for her. As for whether someone else had already prepared a speech for Euphemia, Ryukino didn't have a copy, so he directly assumed that there was no preparation at all.
After working with Xiao Ran for so long, Ryukino had always been Xiao Ran's secretary, so it was easy for him to write a speech. After writing the speech, Ryukino began to explain to Euphemia the things that she had to pay attention to during her speech, from the tone of her speech to her expression to the pauses at certain points in the speech. As for how much Euphemia could remember, that was up to God.
At the end of the day, the real work was to let everyone in the 11th district know about Euphemia. From the speech at the TV station to the meeting at noon, and then to the garrison visit in the afternoon, they contacted people from all walks of life in order to confirm and announce Euphemia's unshakable position as the governor of the 11th district.
The reports submitted by various departments at the meeting were soon divided into two copies. One copy fell into the hands of Euphemia and was guarded by Ryukino. At the same time, Ryukino had to check and sort out all the documents, sort out the important things, and then give them to Euphemia to make the final decision.
The second copy fell into the hands of Xiao Ran. These reports and documents were what Xiao Ran needed most at the moment, and were also the best way for him to fully understand the 11th district. At the same time, Xiao Ran would approve and check all the reports according to his own ideas. When Euphemia was not capable enough, he could give the most direct instructions and arrangements to the departments in the 11th district.
It could be said that with Xiao Ran and Zhao by Euphoria's side, she could be a capricious local tyrant who didn't need to deal with government affairs at all in the 11th District and could still make the 11th District work around her ideas.
