If you dare to get close to him, you're dead meat!
"Knight?"
Qiao Qiao thought that she had transmigrated to Europe in the Middle Ages.
There should be no such thing as a knight system now, right?
Or was this Adam actually a teenager who had read too many novels?
Qiao Qiao's imagination ran wild.
"There's a photo in the lining of my coat. You'll understand once you see it," Adam said.
"Photo?"
Qiao Qiao was puzzled.
Adam said, "But my hands are tied now, so I can't take it out. I'll have to trouble you to take it out yourself."
Qiao Qiao's eyes immediately became alert.
Seeing her alert eyes, Adam couldn't help but smile and said, "My hands are tied now, so I can't hurt you at all, right?"
That was true.
Qiao Qiao walked forward and fumbled around in Adam's arms. She found a squarish thing. Surprisingly, there really was a photo inside. Then, she heard Adam say, "How about I take it out for a look?"
Qiao Qiao took out the photo and flipped it over.
There was a young couple in the photo, and a little boy who looked seven or eight years old. He had short blond hair, dark red eyes, and a nervous look. In his arms, there was a baby, who was sleeping soundly.
"This is …"
Qiao Qiao's eyes suddenly widened.
Qiao Qiao recognized the young couple. The woman was her mother, Freya, and the man was her father, Luo Vino. From the characteristics of the blond boy, she could infer that this person was Adam. Then, the baby in his arms, wasn't it her?
"Are you surprised?"
Adam asked.
Qiao Qiao pinched the photo, whose corners had turned dark yellow, and looked at him suspiciously. She said, "You're related to my parents? Are you my brother? "
"No."
Adam shook his head and said truthfully, "You're the first child of Luo Vino, and the only heir. I'm just an orphan who was abandoned as a monster. It was Luo Vino and Freya who adopted me and gave me a new life. The meaning of my existence is to protect them and their child, which is you, Lilith."
"So, this is the reason why you helped me ascend to the throne?"
Qiao Qiao looked at the family photo and asked.
"Because it should belong to you. I just want to help you take back what belongs to you."
"Then, why aren't you with Freya?" Adam didn't exist for such a long time after she met Freya. It was too difficult for her to believe him with just a picture.
After all, she was no longer that fool who trusted Adam completely.
At the mention of this, Adam's expression darkened.
After a while, he slowly said, "Because, after Luo Vino passed away, I left."
"Why?"
This time, Adam was silent for a long time.
Just when Qiao Qiao's patience was about to run out, he said seriously, "Lilith, the situation in J Country is definitely not as simple as you think. The Elders' Council, the Isabelle family, and even Ravel are not your true enemies. Those people are hidden even deeper. Their influence has seeped into the entire J Country. Before you have absolute power, I won't tell you anything about them. For your safety, please don't make today's topic public. "
— —
"Are you done with your questioning?"
When Qiao Qiao returned to her palace, she saw He Shaochen sitting on her office chair.
That arrogant and insufferably arrogant look made her want to slap him.
However, now wasn't the time to do that.
Qiao Qiao took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down. Then, she said to He Shaochen, "Shaochen, I've decided to let Adam out."
"You're not allowed to."
It was a straightforward rejection.
"Adam isn't our enemy."
He Shaochen didn't think much of it. With an 'I knew you would say that' expression, he said, "That man's ability to mess with people's hearts is very strong. He can fool you with just a few words. You're pure, so it's easy to fool you. However, I'm not a fool."
"You're the pure one!"
Qiao Qiao walked over and handed a photo to He Shaochen, saying, "Take a look at this. Adam is related to my parents. He said that he's a knight protecting me. I don't think he's lying."
He Shaochen only glanced at the photo indifferently before looking away, "It's fake."
"Fake?" Qiao Qiao stared at the photo and said in surprise, "How can it be fake? This is obviously real! "
"It's a computer-generated photo. It can only fool an inexperienced little girl like you." He Shaochen said casually.
"This photo looks very old. How can it be computer-generated?"
"There's a lot of advanced technology now. You don't know how to do it, but that doesn't mean that others don't know." He Shaochen said more and more casually.
Qiao Qiao suddenly thought of something. She raised her head and frowned at him. She said unhappily, "He Shaochen, you're clearly dissatisfied with Adam. That's why you said that. This photo is real, right?"
"Tsk."
This girl was quite sharp.
He Shaochen's gaze clearly shifted.
Qiao Qiao was even more certain. She angrily said, "I'm talking to you about serious matters! Can you let go of your personal grudges? "
He Shaochen raised his brows. He reached out his hand and hooked it around Qiao Qiao's neck. He pulled her in front of him and said through gritted teeth, "This young master just doesn't like that man. He dared to touch my woman. I'm already being benevolent by not throwing him into the sea to feed the sharks!"
Qiao Qiao muttered in a small voice.
"He Shaochen, you're really childish."
"Qiao Qiao, say that again!"
"Childish brat, I'm too lazy to talk to you. In any case, I'm going to let Adam out."
"You dare!"
"I dare!"
Even if she wanted to argue with He Shaochen, Qiao Qiao had the right to do so. Because she wasn't afraid of him at all!
"Have you fallen in love with him?" He Shaochen tried to act tough.
It was unknown when there was a faint smell of jealousy in the air.
"No."
"Then why do you care so much about that guy? You're actually arguing with me? "
"Because I feel that Adam has a lot of secrets. It's too wasteful to lock him up in prison like this." Qiao Qiao shrugged.
"What?"
"Adam said that my true enemy isn't the Elder Hall or Ravel. There are other forces in the dark. However, when I asked him what force it is, he didn't tell me. He said that it's not time yet."
"You believe this kind of nonsense?"
"Why not?" Qiao Qiao raised her brows, "Moreover, I have a feeling that Adam has a close relationship with that dark force. It's very likely that he's a core member."
He Shaochen sneered, "Then why did he say that he's your knight?"
"Maybe he purposely snuck in as a spy?" Qiao Qiao's imagination ran wild.
He Shaochen's face darkened. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Qiao Qiao, I'm warning you."
"What?"
"If you dare to get together with Adam, I'll definitely throw that man into the sea to feed the sharks."
"What are you thinking?" Qiao Qiao angrily put her hands on her waist. She said unhappily, "I've always treated him like an older brother!"
"Really?"
"Will I get candy if I lie to you?"
"Why don't I believe you? You and Adam go in and out every day. You're so close. It's very suspicious. "He Shaochen teased. A cunning light flashed in his dark eyes.
"Tsk, then how do you want me to prove it?"
Why was it so troublesome to be a person?
He Shaochen smiled, "Unless you get the marriage certificate with me."
Only by declaring his ownership would he be at ease.
So you're waiting for me here? Qiao Qiao raised her brows.
"Impossible."
She bluntly refused.
"What did you say?"
The temperature in the room instantly dropped.
Qiao Qiao shivered and curled her lips, saying, "Because I'm Lilith Lampedusa Charlie now. If I marry you, it's equivalent to giving up the throne."
He Shaochen was a noble of A Country. If the two of them got together, the issue of the heir would be very troublesome.
"You're abandoning me for the throne?" He Shaochen's face instantly darkened.
Qiao Qiao blinked. "I didn't say that I'm abandoning you."
"Then you won't marry me!"
"Not getting married doesn't mean that we can't be together." Qiao Qiao patted He Shaochen's shoulder and said with a smile, "You can still be my lover."
He Shaochen's face turned even darker.
"You want me to be your lover? Qiao Qiao, do you want to die? "
Seeing that He Shaochen seemed to be really angry, Qiao Qiao hurriedly tried to calm him down. She smiled and said, "Sorry, I'm just kidding. Don't be angry. But now is not the right time to get married. Our identities are too sensitive. If we get married, we will definitely become the focus of the two countries and cause a lot of trouble. Besides, I haven't forgiven you yet."
"What do I need you to forgive me for?"
Seeing that He Shaochen seemed to have forgotten, Qiao Qiao gritted her teeth. She grabbed He Shaochen's hand and was a little angry. "Bastard, I haven't settled the score with you for leaving me without saying goodbye. Are you still pretending to have amnesia?"
He Shaochen obviously remembered what had happened before. He looked away. "How long has it been? Why are you still remembering it?"
"It happened on December 22nd. It's been less than three months now. Don't tell me that you've forgotten it! You bastard, you actually planned to leave me from the beginning. Have you ever thought about my feelings?! "
When she thought of He Shaochen leaving without saying goodbye, Qiao Qiao felt her liver begin to hurt again.
That was the darkest time of her life.
Bad news came one after another.
Her husband went missing, her mother passed away, and she was kidnapped by the Elders to be brainwashed.
Thinking about it, Adam's appearance at that time was really her salvation. If she hadn't been brainwashed and hypnotized, she wouldn't have been able to survive and would definitely have broken down.
After that, it was Adam who stayed by her side and helped her through the darkest period of her life, becoming the pillar of support in her heart.
At this moment, He Shaochen suddenly hugged Qiao Qiao and pressed his face against her chest.
"Bastard, what are you doing?"
"Just let me hug you like this." He Shaochen didn't let go of Qiao Qiao. He whispered, "I'm sorry to have left you such terrible memories."
"Hmph, do you think an apology can make up for everything?"
"Then I'll repay you with my body."
"Be my lover?" Qiao Qiao deliberately provoked him.
He Shaochen didn't say anything this time. After a long time, He Shaochen said lightly, "I can be your lover. I don't care what others think."
Qiao Qiao quickly pushed He Shaochen away and touched his forehead.
Strange, he didn't have a fever.
He Shaochen helplessly pulled her hand away and said helplessly, "I just don't want to see you in a difficult position. You're right. With our current status, getting married is too ostentatious. Many people will attack you with this as an excuse."
"You really think so?"
Qiao Qiao was touched.
He Shaochen pursed his lips and said with a smile, "However, your lover can only be me. If I see you with other men, you're dead."
The atmosphere immediately eased.
Qiao Qiao also laughed. She was like a proud little peacock as she raised her head and said, "Then you have to please me well. Otherwise, I'll have to pamper other people. I'm quite popular in J Country. Every day, I receive many invitations from aristocrats and business tycoons …"
He Shaochen raised his eyebrows. He suddenly grabbed Qiao Qiao's wrist and pulled her into his embrace. He smiled wickedly and said, "Don't worry, I'll please you well, Your Highness."
