Chapter 150: The King's Talk
"Shouldn't even Prince Xiu appear in front of the boss?"
After getting Lun's suggestion, Zhao Xin also thought about what was going on, and when he remembered the question that Chad asked him before leaving, Zhao Xin probably guessed some reasons, he could understand the second distrust of himself, but if he didn't trust Xiu like this, he felt a little incredible.
"As you can see, on an occasion like today, there is no reason why he, as the proud disciple of Reginald and the eldest son of his grandfather, should not appear, but...... It's better that he doesn't come. ”
Did even Shivana say that? When he heard such an answer, Zhao Xin really felt too strange, he walked quickly in front of Shivana, looked into her eyes and asked seriously, "What happened here during the time when Prince Xiu and I left?" ”
"Yike......! Can't you just be gentle? Startled by Zhao Xin's actions, Sivana subconsciously exclaimed, at this time it coincided with the end of a dance music, and the suspicious eyes immediately fell here from the surroundings, Sivana knew that it was a bit rude to do so, and immediately pulled Zhao Xin with a red face and left here quickly, the only thing that was a little different from imagination was that these two people were by no means ordinary teenagers and girls, they did not go to find a deserted alley, but went straight to the balcony and jumped on the roof.
Tonight's night sky is cloudless, a bright full moon hangs high above the sky, under the light of the bright moonlight, the war novel academy built entirely on magic is even more magnificent and beautiful, sitting on the roof, Sivana looked up at the white moon, for the sky dragon, the sun and the moonlight are the most intimate things in their family, after being intoxicated for a while, she suddenly heard something, and immediately turned her head to look at Zhao Xin, who was sitting beside her, and asked with concern: "Today's evening breeze is a little cold, haven't you caught a cold?" ”
Although it looks like a beautiful girl, Shivana is still the juvenile half-blood sky dragon, and this tender skin is just a disguise made of dragon scales, compared to her strong body, Zhao Xin, as a man, seems a little weak.
"I'm fine, hurry up and tell me what happened in Demaciali?"
Looking at Zhao Xin's attentive appearance, Shivana just smiled bitterly, obviously, this was not the conversation she wanted, but this man really didn't have any other thoughts in his heart, she could only sigh slowly, looked at Zhao Xin's eyes and said softly: "Mr. Chad didn't appear here this time, I believe you should have noticed this, right?" “
"I know, but Mr. Chad isn't a real general right now, and even if he didn't come here, there's nothing to doubt about it, right?"
"Maybe that's true, but for Reginald, would he think so?"
"This ...... I'm not sure. “
"Mr. Chad didn't come this time for any other reason, but his name was clearly written on the invitation to Demacia."
Sivana didn't talk to Zhao Xin anymore, she began to tell him little by little what she knew, including the clean-up operation in Demacia, and the conflict between Horrant II and Chad that night, and after hesitating for a while, Sivana told him something more important: after that night, Chad had not been in Demacia's palace for at least a week.
"That's about it, what are you going to do?"
After saying all this, Shivana breathed a long sigh of relief, she didn't want to tell Zhao Xin this, but she didn't want to deceive him, looking at Zhao Xin with an expressionless face, she asked softly with some worry.
"I see, do you know when this ball is going to be?"
"Hey......? It should be held until midnight, and even if the ball is over, League of Legends has other business to attend to, and I think my grandfather will be here for a few days......"
"Please do me a favor."
When he heard such an answer, Zhao Xin's eyes seemed to suddenly glow, he took Shivana's hand, and looked directly into her eyes with the exact same gaze just now, although it was completely no different from just now, but Shivana still screamed softly, blushing and slightly avoiding Zhao Xin's gaze: "What...... How can I help you? “
"The teleportation circle in the War College has always been usable, if we rush back to Demacia now, we should be able to come back by tomorrow morning, I must go to Mr. Chad and ask for clarification."
……
"Tonight's prom was a great one, wasn't it? It's an honor to dance with you, by the way, dear Lord Jiawen, I'm sorry I don't have any family members, but this girl is like a daughter to me, are you two happy to talk? “
At the end of the song, Burnham and Martina returned to the table where they had just stood, and as they were leaving, a maiden came to Gallvin II's side, she looked no more than sixteen years old, perhaps for the first time at this kind of ball, she was obviously a little jerky, and after a brief introduction to Gallvin II, the maiden tried to invite him to dance with her, but apparently, this invitation was rejected by II without hesitation, and the embarrassed maiden could only stand anxiously in place, waiting for Burnham's arrangement.
"Ah, we did have a very pleasant conversation, but I was even more surprised that you had even brought in someone from the Ortorre family, and it seems that you are well prepared, don't you?"
"Oh? Has she already told you? It seems that the two of them really had a pretty pleasant conversation. “
"Sorry you guessed wrong, her look says it all."
Although she was decisively rejected by the second, but the girl never left, her expression may look embarrassed, but in this embarrassment, there is an inexplicable tenacity, she endured the unbearable rejection, and still stubbornly stood in place and insisted on her task, plus it was the person invited by Burnham, no matter what, except for the Ortore family, who was called the "last noble" of Noxus, the second could not think of any other possibility.
"I see, but it seems that you don't like her...... Well, I'm sorry my dear Claire, you look tired, I'm sorry for giving you a bad memory here, rest early, good night, dear. “
The girl didn't speak, she just smiled a little embarrassedly, and turned around and left here randomly, seeing this, Martina immediately grabbed the second arm, and whispered while gently tugging at his cuffs: "She's such a lovely child, dear, you scared her a little, I'm sure she just wants to talk to you, not every girl can fall in love with every side of you like I do." “
Martina could see that the second was not in a good mood at this time, and perhaps it was more appropriate to use the gift of anger, this was the first ballroom party of the League of Legends after its formation, and she did not want the alliance to dissolve on the first day of its formation.
"Hmm...... Maybe so......" Looking at Martina's gentle and nervous gaze, the second could only smile perfunctorily, she understood his wife's concerns, but she would not understand what Burnham really meant by sending this little girl to herself, Noxus may indeed be in a mess now, but he can now be sure that the beneficiary of this chaos is Burnham himself.
"The relationship between the two is really good, which makes me, a person who has no wife and daughter, very envious" Looking at the appearance of the two of them grinding their ears and temples, Burnham didn't know if it was really like this or deliberately joking, just when the second looked at him with a slightly sharp gaze, Burnham suddenly changed his words, the second would never be mistaken, a sinister light flashed in his eyes, this insidious was fleeting, Burnham immediately returned to his state tonight, and said casually as if he had no intention of mentioning it: "But when it comes to this, I remember that His Excellency Reginald also invited a man to come, may I ask why His Excellency Chad is not here tonight, he should have been invited, didn't he? If I could shake the hand of this legendary general, it would be great! “
……!
When she heard this question, Martina immediately grabbed the second with a little disgrace, she knew what had happened between the second and Chad before, although she didn't know why Burnham suddenly brought up this question, but she brought it up in front of the second like this......
"You mean Mr. Chad? It's really unfortunate that the teacher is slightly ill, so I can't attend today's dance, and I thank you on behalf of the teacher for your concern. ”
Just when Martina was worried that the second could not suppress the anger in her heart, Gavin II showed a calm smile elegantly, when she saw such an expression, Burnham's expression couldn't help but be stunned, looking at the disappointment and incomprehension in his eyes, the second just smiled indifferently, and then took the initiative to ask Burnham: "Since you mentioned Chad, then I should also care about your people, right, I remember that the last time I accompanied you here was a man with a crow standing on his shoulder, didn't he come this time?" And your chief strategist, Kanin, I guess he should be here too, right? ”
"Cut...... This ......"
Looking at Burnham's slightly embarrassed expression, Gallvin II read a very interesting detail from it, Burnham didn't seem surprised when he mentioned the man with the crow on his shoulder who couldn't remember his name, but when he mentioned Kanin, Burnham's expression changed significantly, the only difference from what he imagined was that what appeared in Burnham's eyes was not an embarrassed look, but an inexplicable doubt, what happened? II was curious to know.
