Chapter 116: A Wonderful Misunderstanding
"What is this?"
Lady Erica asked curiously as she took the silver card Ian had handed her. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ info, the most handsome student in his class, actually reversed his shy performance in the past today, and took the initiative to find himself for the first time and asked to talk to him alone. This couldn't help but surprise her.
"It's identification in Uptown. Ian explained with a smile.
"Uptown's identification?" Erica raised an eyebrow, the touch of the card making her feel like it wasn't fake, "When did you kid steal this thing." β
"It's not stealing, it's my identification. β
"Yours?" Lady Erica looked at the smiling teenager in front of her with a suspicious look, and when she felt that the other person didn't seem to be lying, she couldn't help but look down at the card in her hand.
"You're a guard at the Grand Duke's Mansion?" After reading the text on the card, Erica couldn't help but exhale, causing Ian to quickly put his index finger to his lips.
Lady Erica, who received the signal, covered her mouth at once and nodded her head in understanding.
"Not only that, but I'm Miss Fair's personal bodyguard. A smile tugged at Ian's lips. He has decided not to deliberately suppress his strength, and intends to persuade Fei'er to let her take him with him outside the circle. Therefore, before that, it is necessary to "hand" the task assigned by Phil to others, "Lady Erica, there is one thing that we need your help with. β
"What...... What?"
"Lady Erica, I guess you've heard the news that Miss Phil is going to live in the school. Ian made his eyes as serious as possible, whether he could get away with it or not, this is the key.
"That's true. Lady Erica nodded cautiously, and then asked curiously, "But the girl who didn't see anyone today didn't come to school." β
"Because it's just a faΓ§ade. Ignoring Lady Erica's nickname for Phile, Ian began to tell nonsense: "Recently, the Grand Duke noticed that there were people in the upper city who wanted to disadvantage Miss Phil, so he deliberately made this arrangement and asked me to place her in a safer and more private place. β
"Is that so?" said Lady Erica, in dismay.
"Yes. Ian nodded: "Recently, I will also ask for leave from the academy, and the time will be about a month." β
"That'...... What do you need me to do?" After a moment of silence, Lady Erica's eyes suddenly glowed with a strange light, and Ian was suddenly startled, and had a bad premonition, and almost forgot to answer her question.
"We need you to hide the fact that we are not at the academy from the people of Upper City. β
"But it's going to be a hassle, they can ask the students too. β
"I will ask Miss Phil to call her illness to the outside world, and arrange for someone to dress up as Phil and stay in Phil's room. At that time, you need to go to Fei'er's room every day and sit down, and then tell the public that she is indeed in school. β
"Is that what everyone says when they come to ask?" Lady Erica raised an eyebrow and asked meaningfully, "Even if someone from the Grand Duke comes to ask?"
"Same!" Ian nodded cautiously. He knew that this question was the key to gaining faith with Ms. Erica. He has already listed many explanations for the various questions that may be encountered after giving this answer, and he has tried to survive this hurdle.
However, things turned out to be unexpected, and Lady Erica readily agreed. She patted Ian on the shoulder fiercely, with stars in her eyes, and assured in an inexplicable tone: "No problem, just leave it to me!"
Ian froze in place. He felt like he had gathered all his strength and punched as if it had hit a ball of cotton.
"Why did you believe me so easily?" he asked unconsciously. Looking at Ms. Erica's sparkling eyes, a bad heart popped up, and I felt that the other party seemed to have misunderstood something?
"Boy, do you think I don't know what your relationship with that girl is?" Lady Erica snickered and hinted, "That girl's identity is indeed a little special, and I can understand the occasional extraordinary means." β
"For the sake of you being my 'matchmaker' with Kelly, I have to help you with this favor, teacher. β
"Please wait a minute!" Hearing this, Ian felt a cold sweat break out on his head, and he finally knew what the lady in front of him who was engaged to Kelly's mentor in the knight department was thinking......
He couldn't believe why the other party would associate this with that aspect. But just as he was about to clarify the damn state of affairs, it was clear that Lady Erica had already decided on the "truth" of the matter, and could no longer listen to half an explanation, and began to ask questions vigorously.
"Now, where are you already at?"
Ian shouted in his heart: Not a single step!
"Elopement is nothing, as long as you control the time!"
Ian shook his head desperately: it wasn't elopement at all!
"Don't be so shy, little boy, it's nothing. The Grand Duke of Lanceveen is known for his mercy, and I don't think the Grand Duke will continue to oppose it as long as it is an established fact. After all, that girl is a sinner, and there are not many people in the empire who will really like sinners. Maybe the Grand Duke will be happy to see it. β
The corners of Ian's eyes twitched: this version spreads, and I will definitely be wanted by him all over the city!
"Leave it to me with confidence, I will definitely help you delay time as much as possible!"
Ian felt that he was numb: the purpose was achieved, but the process was not right......
......
β...... Ian, what's wrong with you?"
Looking at Ian, who had returned to the classroom as if he was sleepwalking, Alvin, who had never seen his best friend like this, couldn't help but ask with concern.
"No, nothing. Ian sat back in his chair and leaned one hand on the table, covering his forehead. After a long time, he came back to his senses, and seemed to finally get rid of the embarrassment of Shicai and remembered what was going on.
"Alvin, I'm going to take a leave of absence for the next month, and I need your help with something. β
"Huh?" Smelling a strange aura, Alvin asked curiously, "After His Royal Highness Fei'er was absent from school, you actually have to ask for leave?"
"Tell me, what do you need me to do for you?"
"Fei'er is going to live in the academy, I need you to help me find someone, pretend to be her, and move into her dormitory for a month starting tomorrow night. Ian explained in a low voice, "During this time, Phil and I need to leave for a trip outside the circle. β
"Oh?" Alvin raised his eyebrows, and after pretending to think for a while, he showed an ambiguous smile: "You guys, finally planning to elope?"
