Chapter 240: No matter how much money you have, you can only bow your head under the blade

"Eh, you say, is that really a princess?"

"Of course! Except for the princess, who else in the world can be so good-looking! ”

"Princess, I think it should indeed be a princess, the badge of the carriage outside, I don't think anyone should dare to use it, but, what I'm curious about is, another young lady, is she really our boss? How come I've never seen her before! ”

“....... At this time, no one should dare to come out and impersonate, right? ”

"I've heard the store manager say that she recently had a new boss, but I really don't know who it is, and now that she jumped out, it shouldn't be wrong, right?"

"Eh, you say, how old is our new boss, who can actually have a relationship with the princess, and can also invite her out to our little place......"

"Who knows?"

"Actually, it's very simple to want to know, go and send some water, and listen quietly."

"If you want to die, don't pull us!"

"But aren't you really curious?"

"What's the use of being curious, is this something we can be curious about?"

“.......”

Just as the clerks were talking eagerly in a small voice, the female store manager who entered the VIP room with the "boss" and the "princess" suddenly walked out.

"Come to the west, quick, go upstairs, bring the tea I put in the second layer of storage before, and then send it directly in."

"Huh?"

The female clerk who was called by the store manager was slightly stunned, and hurriedly left, looking at it, as if she hated herself for not being able to grow eight legs at the moment to make up for the time wasted by this stunned god.

went upstairs, easily found the tea that the store manager said, the store manager's people were no longer visible outside, and they didn't dare to delay more, so they hurriedly came to the VIP room and gently pressed the doorbell button on the side.

Three seconds later, the door opened.

"Two, two young ladies, this is ....... Tea. ”

"Put it here." Charlotte whispered, pointing to the table between them with a very simple appearance.

Laixi trembled and put down the tea box lightly according to the girl's instructions, and was about to turn around and leave, but the girl shouted out again at this moment to stop her.

"Please wait a minute." Charlotte pointed to an empty teapot next to her and said softly, "Can you help me fill it with water?" ”

She said very tactfully: "Although there is a drinking fountain in this room, it is ...... I don't know how to use it. ”

"Ah, yes, so good......."

How dare he refuse to come to the west, and the teapot came to the water dispenser in the VIP room.

"A princess is a princess, and you won't use anything as simple as ......."

While operating the water dispenser to dispense water, she muttered silently in her heart.

But her thoughts didn't last long, and were soon interrupted by the conversation between the two girls.

"Charlotte, don't you really want to?" Corina seemed to be a little anxious and said, "This is a real legendary gem, something that has been blessed by the goddess, and the church in the imperial capital has personally certified it, don't you really want it?!" ”

A legendary jewel? Or have you been blessed by the goddess? Even the Imperial Capital Cathedral has come out to certify?

Is this something I can listen to?!

Laixi's hand holding the teapot was trembling slightly, but her exuberant curiosity made her want to continue listening.

After silently saying "it was they who said it has nothing to do with me" countless times in her heart, she held her breath and pricked up her ears.

Compared to Corinna's urgent tone, Charlotte's voice was noticeably calmer.

"Although it is something that has been blessed by the goddess, I can't use this blessing for the time being." Charlotte chuckled and said, "As you said, it is one of the tokens of love when the 'Hero Sap and Valkyrie Stinavia' were combined, and the blessing given by the goddess to it in legend is also to wish the love of the two newlyweds to be pure and flawless, and I am still a long way from getting married." ”

"This blessing is given to me now, but it's a little too early."

"Sapu the Hero and the Valkyrie Stinavia" is one of the older legends in the Laiyin region.

According to legend, a long time ago, there was a fallen tyrant on the earth who caused a human disaster, and the goddess did not like this ruler, so she sent the Valkyrie Stinavia to eradicate this human scourge, but due to some accidents, the Valkyrie lost her memory and power when she came, and was then picked up by Sap, who was still a ruffian at the time.

As soon as two completely different people met, they knew that the other party must be incompatible with them, so they fought on the spot, and then because of some accidents, they had to continue to be entangled.

Subsequently, under the tyrant's covetousness for the Valkyrie's appearance, the two were forced to cooperate and embarked on the road of rebellion against the tyrant, and then the plot after that was probably how the hero grew into a hero, how the Valkyrie turned back into a Valkyrie, and how the two overthrew the tyrant and united with the blessing of the goddess.

Overall, it is a relatively ordinary legend, and compared to other legends, the advantage may be that the ending is relatively satisfying.

And the "token of love" that Charlotte refers to is the jewel in the crown of the defeated tyrant.

It was originally a symbol of depravity, but after the blessing of the goddess in legend, it became a symbol of purity and fulfillment.

'It seems like a good thing to get such a legendary item, but for a princess, it really doesn't seem to be needed? ’

Laixi looked at the teapot that was already full of water in his hand, and thought silently in his heart.

She took a deep breath to calm her mind, and was about to turn around when she heard the next series of conversations coming one after another.

"........," Corinna scratched her head, "Prepare for it first, and then talk about it later?" Anyway, I got it, and I said it was a gift for you, don't you want me to give it to someone else? ”

"It's not impossible." Charlotte smiled, "Didn't you hear that someone was going to get married on the way here just now?" Just give it to them. ”

"It's ....... You're really atmospheric. Corina said angrily, "Do you know how much I paid for it?" ”

"Don't forget it, and say that you give it directly to strangers, you are really ......."

"Don't be angry, don't be angry." Charlotte whispered soothingly, "I know you mean well, but what it represents is really a little far away from me, and besides, my marriage is ........ It shouldn't be worthy of it. ”

"........" Corina fell silent suddenly.

Charlotte seemed to be unaware of her change in mood, and continued: "So, this 'blessing of purity' should be possessed by someone who really deserves it, and if you insist on giving it to me, I will probably give it to a new couple after I go out." ”

"........" Corina tugged at her hair, looking very entangled.

After a while, she suddenly sighed, and then said as if she had given up on herself: "I don't care, anyway, the thing is for you, you can give it to whomever you want." ”

With that, she pushed the box towards Charlotte and left the VIP room as if she were running away.

"Click-"

Seeing the door being shut, Charlotte helplessly held her forehead.

"It's really ......." sighed slightly, she rubbed her eyebrows and slowly looked up.

At this time, she seemed to realize that the poor clerk, who was stiff because he had not received the next order, had stood with his back to her for a long time with a full water bottle and his back to her, and he did not dare to let out of the air.

Don't look at me, don't look at me, don't look at me!!

Laixi screamed wildly in her heart, but unfortunately, she didn't learn how to make herself transparent, and she couldn't successfully cast the spell just by chanting the spell.

"Come here."

Laixi felt bitter in his heart, turned around mechanically, carried the kettle, and reluctantly smiled.

I don't know if her brain suddenly twitched, but she actually spoke first.

"Do you want to burn it now?"

“........”

It's over, it's over, it's over!

What am I talking about, help!!

Laixi wished that there would be a crack in the ground at this time to bury himself, but it was really not good, and it was okay for the ceiling to fall down and stone himself to death now.

What did I eat to dare to say such offensive words at this time!!

What awaits you below?

Was it to be dismembered by five horses or to go to the gallows? Burning at the stake is very painful, it must not be this, okay? The most important thing is not to put yourself in a harsh prison full of men!!

The goddess is above, so she will definitely die!!

Perhaps it was the temporary hugging of the goddess's feet that worked, and the voice she heard was soft and surprising.

"No need." Charlotte shook her head and reached out to beckon her over, "Here you come." ”

Lysy trembled as she came to Charlotte's side, and heard her whisper, "Do you know where the people out there who ask for blessings are coming from?" ”

Laixi's first reaction was to say that she didn't know, but she was even more afraid that she would be hung up in the city after lying.

"I....... Know. ”

"Do you know the exact time and place when they got married?"

"I know ........ too"

"That's good." Charlotte pushed the box in front of Laixi, "Can you please give this gift to the couple when the time comes....... If they don't let you in, you'll say it's a wedding gift from Charlotte Ferdinand, and I'm sure they won't say no. ”

Laixi, who was blocked in the back road, laughed like crying: "I....... Be sure to complete the task. ”

"Thank you."

Charlotte thanked her and left the lounge before she came back to her senses.

........

When Laixi returned to the hall, the princess's carriage was long gone, and the mysterious boss was nowhere to be seen, only to look at her with curiosity at the same time.

"Eh, Laixi, are you taken a fancy to by His Highness? Otherwise, why did you go in for so long and come out after everyone left? ”

"No, it's not ......."

"How's it going, have you heard any secrets, tell us about it!"

"No, no ......."

Laixi responded perfunctorily to everyone.

She was just given the "heavy responsibility", her mind was still messy, and she hadn't been transferred back at all, how could she have time to take care of them.

It's just that she didn't find out that her ignorance caused some people's dissatisfaction.

In human society, the reason why women's jealousy is ranked above men's is not because they are really more likely to be jealous than men, but because most women can't have a better concentration, so that their jealousy flows out of a gap.

"Okay, don't tell us about a good thing, we still treat you as a sister!"

"Laixi, I really didn't expect you to be such a person. When you came, we saw that you were young and took care of you everywhere, but now you have a benefit, but you don't share it with us......."

"We're not trying to rob you of your things, what can you say?"

"Even if you're given a secret mission........ You yourself say, after so many days of getting along, will we be loose-mouthed people? ”

Laixi looked up in a daze, her thoughts were already a little hazy, and she was even more dizzy when she was hit by the words of her "colleagues".

She is not very old, this job is her first job, and she has not seen much about society, where can she withstand such a yin and yang weirdness.

"I don't have .......," she said, sobbing and sobbing, "I don't get any benefits, and I don't have any secrets......."

Colleagues did not feel pity for this, and continued to aggressively ask: "Since it's not a secret, then why don't you tell us!"

"Come on, you just don't trust us."

"Alas, come to the west, count me blind, alas."

“.......”

Facing so many disappointments mixed with mocking eyes, Laixi couldn't hold back.

She was just a little girl, how could she bear so many people dissecting her fragile heart with sharp words at the same time.

"I'll tell you, I'll tell you!!"

Disheartened, she began to tell.

.......

In the hidden corner, Corina clasped her hands and looked at the young man beside her with a mocking smile.

"Bully the little girl, this is one of your plans?"

Lynn innocently spread his hands: "This is really not arranged by me, I can only say that at the same time as the plan changes, the process has also changed." ”

Corina pouted, "I hope so....... Bullying the weak is really annoying. ”

"Then you can just fire them all, you're the boss anyway."

Lynn said casually, and then suddenly laughed: "Speaking of which, miss, you really surprised me. ”

"In such a short period of time, the program was improved beyond recognition to advance the program........ I need to give you a good compliment. ”

"Hey, who wants your compliment."

Corina held her head high, and the moment her hair fell just to hide the blush that flashed on her cheeks.

After a moment, she whispered, "Actually, it's unrecognizable, and it's not quite right. ”

"My improvement is still based on your theory."

"You said that we are targeting those businessmen who have a good face but are unlikely to gain fame, and the charity auction is aimed at those who have the money and want to gild the titles they have on their heads, and this gem in our hands is the prop that can 'gilt them'."

"Yes, but that's before." Lynn said.

"It's not much worse now." "It's just that now we've narrowed it down to one person, and the story of the gem has become a tailor-made product for him, and we can only border them." ”

After a pause, she sighed: "Compared with the previous plan, the margin for error in the plan I made is not smaller, after all, both the candidates and the time arrangement were relatively abundant before, but now it is so urgent.......

"Don't be presumptuous." Lynn laughs, "Sometimes, a flash of inspiration can bring more rewards. ”

"After all, the act of giving gems is almost the same as the princess herself showing her goodwill, and for a merchant who has nothing but money, it is the most honorable honor that cannot be exchanged for his life."

"In the face of power, no matter how much money you have, you can only bow your head under the blade of the guard."

"—no matter how expensive this head is."
