Chapter Thirty-Seven: Could That Demon Be You, Steward Jiang?

The prince frowned, his gaze very cold.

The rest of the vampire members were afraid to speak out.

The duchess on the side didn't know the intention of these two dishes for a while, and secretly looked at Jiang Linxian not far away, as if asking about his intentions.

Jiang Linxian secretly screamed at the moment.

Before, he wanted to give the medicine, so he thought of this method to break the head chef, but he didn't expect the prince to be so angry when the vegetarian dishes were served.

After thinking for a while, he bowed his head and replied, "Your Excellency, these dishes have already been prepared for you by Butler Nigud, and since I have been a butler, I have not dared to be careless about Your Majesty's preferences. ”

"When Steward Nicgood was still alive, he often told me about your great achievements, and I was filled with respect and admiration for you."

"The Duchess often speaks of your strength at dinner parties."

"Today, with devotion and apprehension, I see your true face, which makes me even more frightened, and my respect and worship for you are as vast as the rivers and seas."

"So I don't dare to take matters into my own hands and replace these dishes indiscriminately."

"Presumably, Butler Nigude prepared two plates of vegetarian dishes for you, and he should have some purpose to express his admiration and admiration for you."

"If you don't like it, I'll replace it for you."

As he spoke, he immediately prepared the two plates of vegetarian dishes to be taken away.

"Wait."

After listening to Jiang Linxian's pause, the prince's face improved a lot.

Although he didn't have the slightest affection for humans, the sycophants of the little bedbug in front of him made him listen very comfortably.

Jiang Linxian tried to restrain his arm from trembling and holding the plate, waiting for the prince's orders, and the nosebleed was about to flow out unconsciously.

"Put it down." The prince glanced at Jiang Linxian and stopped pursuing it.

The Duchess was relieved to see the change in the prince, and looked at Jiang Linxian's gaze, becoming softer and more affectionate.

Ji Ningxue stood in the last row, and couldn't help but sweat deeply for Jiang Linxian.

The prince is in a high position, and moodiness is a common thing.

Therefore, it is unknown what the prince does to Jiang Linxian.

After a few moments, she slowly retreated into the corner and slipped out.

Putting the two plates of dishes back on the table, Jiang Linxian retreated behind him and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

After all, tonight is a critical moment and there is no room for error.

The prince began to eat human food slowly.

The Duchess looked at the vampire nobles who had come to greet the prince, and said indifferently: "You all stand down, the prince needs a quiet environment for dinner." ”

"Tomorrow's birthday banquet, remember to prepare well."

The other vampire nobles bowed their heads and exited the banquet hall.

An hour later.

The Prince's meal is over.

He slowly got up and walked towards the fifth floor.

The Duchess and the others still followed.

"What about Andriy and Mary?"

The prince asked, "I haven't seen the children for a long time, and I miss them a little." ”

"I've already slept, I'll bring them to you tomorrow." The Duchess replied with a smile.

The prince nodded: "You guys have worked hard today. ”

He looked at Jiang Linxian, then at the Duchess, thoughtfully: "Madam, you don't have to send me upstairs, just let the housekeeper send me up." ”

The Duchess looked at Jiang Linxian and felt that something was wrong, and replied, "It's better to let me accompany you to the room." ”

The prince waved his hand and refused: "No need, you have a good rest tonight and prepare for tomorrow's birthday banquet." ”

"It's been hard work these days."

As he spoke, he looked at Jiang Linxian beside the Duchess and showed a smile: "You follow me upstairs and send me back to the room." ”

Even if Jiang Linxian was a hundred reluctant, he didn't dare to go against the prince's will, and immediately bowed his head and replied: "This is my honor." ”

The Duchess and the others stopped on the fourth floor, and Jiang Linxian accompanied the prince to the fifth floor.

When they came to the corridor on the fifth floor, the demon dog lying on the ground wagged its tail and crawled over.

The prince touched its head, got up and asked Jiang Linxian, "It seems that you have a good relationship with my wife." ”

"You should have been promoted to the position of housekeeper, right?"

Although Jiang Linxian didn't know why the prince asked like this, he could only find a way to answer: "It's all because of the Duchess's love for me, let me be the housekeeper." ”

"I remember it's the first time the Duchess has such a good impression of a human being." The prince laughed, and as he walked, he said, "Your charm is not small. ”

"It is an honour for me to share the Duchess's worries, and I dare not have any other thoughts." Jiang Linxian pinched his fingers hard to prevent the nosebleeds from coming out.

"That's right." The prince stopped, propped his hands on the black slender cane, and looked at the door of the room: "Was Butler Nikode killed last night?" ”

Hearing this, Jiang Linxian's back couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

How could the prince know that Steward Nicgood had been killed last night?

His mind was racing, and suddenly something terrible happened.

The Prince and Steward Nicgood are both fearful demons, so there must be some kind of connection between them.

When Steward Nigude attacked him last night, he may have informed the Prince.

In other words, the death of Nicholas Steward, the prince should have sensed it as soon as possible.

Then he should suspect that the person who killed Steward Nicgood was himself.

Thankfully, he shouldn't have known that it was the Duchess who actually killed Nicold's butler.

But this does not allow him to rule out suspicion of the Duchess, but he is currently the most suspicious.

"Yes." Jiang Linxian replied, and after thinking through these things, he continued: "When Steward Nigud was killed by a demon, the Duchess rushed to the scene as soon as possible and killed the demon. ”

"But by that time Steward Nicgood was dead."

"What about his corpse? Still not there? ”

"It's been disposed of, and after being killed by a demon, it comes with evil energy, so I don't dare to store the body for too long."

After listening to Jiang Linxian's words, the prince couldn't help but sigh.

He seemed to be slowly recalling the bits and pieces of himself and Steward Nicold.

"Steward Nicgood has served me for hundreds of years, but I didn't expect to die at the hands of the devil in the end, what a pity."

The prince nodded and looked at Jiang Linxian: "Actually, Steward Nigud also passed a message to me last night. ”

He glanced at Jiang Linxian and said seriously: "He said that he met a human and wanted to come to the fifth floor. ”

"And he stopped him."

"Then I lost contact with him."

The Prince's gaze was deep.

"Actually, I'm curious, who is that human?"

"Why did you come to the fifth floor?"

"Did he want to enter my room and plot something wrong?"

"Or rather, the demon who killed Steward Nicgood, could it be a human demon?"

He turned around suddenly, stared at Jiang Linxian in front of him, and asked solemnly, "Could that demon be you?" Steward Jiang? ”

A large amount of ghost energy in his body instantly emanated from the prince's body.

For a while, Jiang Linxian was about to lose his breath.

A powerful ghostly aura drowned it like icy water.

Jiang Linxian had already taken the blood-colored ghost stick in his hand, and quickly retreated to the staircase on the fifth floor, while shouting in a hoarse voice: "Ji Ningxue!" Don't hurry up yet! ”
