Lei Ye ignored Sylvia's somewhat ugly face and continued: "Proud people have self-knowledge, but arrogant people have empty eyes. ”

He stared into Sylvia's eyes and asked, "Do you think I'm like His Majesty Ferdinand?"

This question is actually very easy to answer, Lei Ye always thinks that he is a little person, and a little person must have the consciousness of a little person, and he will never arrogantly think that he is invincible in the world.

However, this is not the case with Ferdinand, who was given titles such as great and wise not long after he was born, and has lived in flattery and deception since he was a child, and it is difficult not to be arrogant.

Sylvia smiled wryly: "I'll try to change his mind as much as I can, and before that......"

Renard added: "We were allies until then. ”

The word "ally" used by Lei Ye, rather than a monarch or something else, had clearly put himself in the same position as the king, and he considered himself qualified to do so.

Is this arrogance? Of course not! Because he already has a strategic weapon!

Sylvia felt the change in him, a little confused, and equally a little lost.

At this moment, the door of the small living room was suddenly opened, and Seniore recklessly broke in, he noticed the three of them, and walked over directly: "Your Highness Silvia, it turns out that you are here, I thought something had happened to you." ”

He looked at Renard as he spoke, as if to say, "This man is not a good thing, you need to stay away from him."

Sylvia frowned slightly, Senior's actions disgusted her.

But she can't say anything to blame, after all, the other party's current identity is her personal bodyguard.

Senior, however, had no consciousness of being a guest at all, and sat beside Sylvia in a bit of a noisy manner, and said to Heidi: "Miss Heidi, there were too many people just now, and I didn't have time to greet you, how are you doing?"

Heidi looked at him indifferently, not bothering to bother at all.

However, Seniore chattered, "It's a pity, if it wasn't for that incident at the beginning, I should be sitting next to you now." ”

Renard didn't know where the other party's self-confidence came from, but he didn't bother, and watched the clown's performance coldly.

Seniore deliberately leaned closer to Sylvia's side, and said with a smile: "We failed to unite, it should be a great loss for you, I am now the quasi-fiancé of His Royal Highness Sylvia, the king ......"

Before he could continue, Lei Ye interrupted indifferently: "Your Excellency Lei Dawang, please help me throw this guy into the dung pit." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Ray Dawang appeared next to Seniors like a ghost, and he was still holding a wine glass in his left hand, and the water in the wine glass did not move at all, indicating that he did not come here with great speed.

Ray Dawang bowed slightly and said, "I'll be happy to help." ”

As he spoke, he placed his right hand lightly on Senior, and before he could resist, the two of them disappeared into the room.

Sylvia stared at this scene in shock, and did not speak for a long time.

Renard extinguished the cigarette, leaned back on the couch, and asked Sylvia, "Tell me, what's going on?"

Sylvia recovered from her shock, and then said with some bitterness: "Naturally, it's because of His Excellency Quentin Cronin. ”

She took a sip of tea, and then told the story, which began with the Honeysuckle Chamber of Commerce mastering the economic lifeline of the Arthurian Kingdom.

The Cronin family is somewhat similar to the Moore family, all of them are business families, but the slight difference is that the Cronin family has always helped the Hope family to manage the economic industry.

That is to say, they have absolute authority in the business world of Arthur's kingdom, and as a direct consequence, the Cronin family has taken advantage of this convenience to reach into all corners of the kingdom.

Originally, this was nothing, after all, His Majesty the King held the military and political power, and no matter how rich you were, you couldn't make any waves.

However, after the outbreak of the Demonic Calamity, this situation changed completely.

The Cronin family used their money and power to accumulate a large amount of military supplies, and almost monopolized the trade of weapons and equipment and food in the Kingdom of Arthur.

If Ferdinand wants to resist the scourge, he has to bow to the Cronin family.

If the other party was just an ordinary businessman, the king could have killed the other party directly, but it was a pity that the head of the Cronin family was an epic warrior who was not easy to provoke.

In the face of such a strong man, even if you send tens of thousands of troops to encircle and suppress it, it is useless, and people can hide behind the scenes and kill you.

Moreover, the demon army is overwhelming, and there are not many people to deal with the Cronin family.

Sylvia shrugged helplessly: "For the sake of the future of the Hope family, there is nothing that cannot be sacrificed, including myself." ”

This feeling of sacrificing for the family really makes Lei Ye's head big, are the people in this world so selfless?

Renard was a little confused: "Isn't Senior's illegitimate son of Quentin Cronin, why can he marry the Hope family on behalf of the Cronin family?"

Sylvia sighed: "Marquis Quentin's original wife died half a year ago, Senior's mother took the throne, and now he is the rightful son of Marquis Quentin, otherwise what qualifications are there to enter the Sky Knights." ”

Renard suddenly realized, and at the same time was a little glad that he also had epic warriors under his hands, and they were stronger and more terrifying.

Sylvia suddenly remembered something and asked, "That was the ...... just now?"

Renard just wanted to casually say 'my future father-in-law' to anger the other party, but suddenly noticed Heidi beside him, so he hurriedly changed his words: "Mr. Ray Dawang, the commander of the firearms army led by Earl Meredith, and is also Heidi's bodyguard. ”

Bodyguard Sylvia looked at Heidi with surprise in her eyes.

As a princess of the kingdom, she is not qualified to let an epic powerhouse be a bodyguard, what virtue does this countess have to win the favor of the other party?

Heidi took a sip of her tea and said nothing.

Renard has a headache now, and it seems that he has provoked enough rights and wrongs, so do you still have to wade into this troubled water?

Dare to rob a woman with Lei Ye, why are you impatient?

Renard first looked at Heidi before asking, "Are the Cronin family arrogant now?"

Sylvia opened her mouth, not knowing how to answer, and after a while, she gently spat out three words: "It's okay." ”

Lei Ye glared at Sylvia while Heidi was drinking tea, as if to say: Why didn't you tell me earlier.

What he didn't know, however, was that Heidi's gaze was always on the two of them, and their every move was in full view.

Heidi's eyes flashed cold, and she felt that she had to find an opportunity to cheer up her wife in the future, otherwise she didn't know how many women the other party would provoke to go home.

Of course, I still have to save face for my husband now, and this account will be written down for the time being.

Little did Renard know that he had just walked on the death line.
