Chapter 362: Devil’s Snare and Snow Dalle
Isabellas mansion.
Chen Rui was blocked at the door. Isabella did not want to see him.
In fact, the female guard who stopped Chen Rui was also a bit puzzled. This sir had always been a frequent visitor to the mansion and often lived in the mansion. His close relationship with madam was by no means comparable to ordinary people. She didnt know why he was listed as an unwelcome guest now.
In any case, the guards faithfully implemented the orders their owner instructed.
Chen Rui frowned. He told Obsidian that he would leave the capital and return to the human world today. He also declined invitations to banquets and dances. He must uncover Isabellas background. It would be a headache since she refused to meet now.
He was now playing Charles who had a deep love for her. Should I really break in?
Just as Chen Rui was thinking about the story, a familiar voice sounded from behind, Hey, Charles, why are you at the door?
Chen Rui looked back and realized that it was Krobelus. It seemed that Miss Emerald Dragon came to meet her best friend.
You came to find Yini? Why dont you go in? Krobelus was a little surprised.
Unless it was a day like giving out welfare and money, Ms. Emerald Dragon would never attend any boring meetings. She strolled around as a high rank consultant all day long to look for suitable targets for looting. As for the recent political affairs, it could be said that she had no idea about it and didnt bother to ask too.
Chen Rui smiled bitterly and tilted his head toward the female guard who stopped him, Yini refuses to see me. I dont know what I did wrong.
Is that so? Krobelus asked the guard curiously.
The bodyguard nodded and said, Ms. Krobelus, madam had instructed that she is not willing to meet Sir Charles at any time.
It turned out to be so. Ms. Emerald Dragon naturally stood firmly on the side of her good friend. She immediately stared at Chen Rui dissatisfiedly, It must be you who did something that disgusted her. Since she didnt want to see you, then you quickly.
With that posture, she looked like she was about to chase him away.
At this moment, Krobelus eyes flashed suddenly. Shee saw that Charles made a gesture to her with his palm. It was as if he was holding something. Ms. Emerald Dragons natural sensitive sense of smell immediately noticed that this was a huge gemstone. It was bigger than the one he gave her previously. She immediately changed her tone, Then I will lead you in to have a good talk with her.
Chen Rui breathed a sigh of relief. Sure enough, in the face of wealth, the dragons morality almost has no lower limit.
Seeing Krobelus leading Chen Rui in, the few guards were anxious. They stopped her hastily, Miss Krobelus! Please dont make it difficult for us, madam has instructed us
Isabella said that I can go in and out of this place as I wish. Its just that I bring a follower this time.
Well, Ill be a follower then. Chen Rui shook his head like he was enduring a humiliation to accomplish his task.
No, miss!
Ms.Emerald Dragons overbearing and suppressive eyes made the guards unable to move. She then swaggered into the mansion with her entourage.
Ms. Emerald Dragon still had professional ethics (More importantly, she had long term plans for big returns). After taking the gem, she led Chen Rui all the way to Isabellas study room.
Isabella leaned on the bench. She was wearing a set of very casual long skirts. Her full and mature temperament was undoubtedly revealed. One could even faintly glimpse those two seductive bulges on her chest under her bra. Seeing Krobelus rushing straight into the area with Chen Rui, Isabellas brow couldnt help frowning.
Yini, I caught this nasty guy who offended you. You can punish him as you wish! Ms. Emerald Dragon turned her image from a betrayer to a friend with a single sentence.
I have to say that the dragons are still quite wise. A more accurate adjective should be cunning.
Ms. Betty, let me talk with Yini alone to solve some minor misunderstandings?
Krobelus walked a few steps back and forth like she was thinking, but the hand behind her back stretched out a v-shaped gesture toward Chen Rui. Of course, she did not mean victory, but. 2 gems.
Sure enough, she took advantage of the difficult situation as expected.
Seeing the human nodded without thinking, Ms. Emerald Dragon was overjoyed. She found an excuse and strolled into the hall.
Isabella leaned sideways. She held her palm lightly on the other arm and changed to an elegant posture. She covered the bumps on her chest naturally. She smiled faintly, Are there any urgent matters for Sir Charles to be here today?
Although this smile was still beautiful as before, it was more of an official expression. It was completely different from the previous one, but she was also acting previously. Now it should just be a different script.
So, lets try this script.
Chen Rui smiled bitterly, Do I have to have an urgent matter to meet you? I have never had a place to live in the capital. This is considered my only home.
Isabella shook her head slightly, As everyone knows, Sir Charles is now the popular figure in front of the Regent. If you just request it, more than one major family will immediately give you mansions and beauties.
Chen Rui sighed, No matter how luxurious the house is, it cant compare to my own home. This is the only place where the Demon Realm gives me this feeling. Although it is only a little bit, it is precious enough.
Home, Isabella directly ignored the last sentence. There was a hint of sarcasm in her smile, Home is where the family is. Doesnt Sir Charles have your own home already?
I do have my own home. I now I just cant help myself or it should be called foolish. Chen Rui said sadly, Youre right. Home is where the family is. This place is just your home.
My home Isabella was a little lost, and then her expression recovered again, I feel a little tired talking to sir.
This was undoubtedly an order to evict guests, Chen Rui was silent for a while, Yini, Im here to say goodbye to you. Dont you want to say something?
Its Lady Isabella. Isabella corrected him, What do you want to hear from me? Some boring words? Or some kind of insincere apology?
Do you really hate me so much?
Isabella shook her head and said, Women are ever changing. Many things dont need a reason, plus some feelings are sudden.
Really? Chen Rui looked around and saw that there was no one. He lamented softly, Then before leaving, I, an ignorant nasty guy, would like to tell you one last thing, or should I say confess. My real name is Charles Roland, not Charles Kemplot. Roland is the surname of the Dragon Bright Empire royal family. Originally, I just wanted to use the identity of the heir of the Kemplot Family. I didnt expect that Nero saw through the royal familys Body of Light
Chen Rui told the secret of the illegitimate son of Emperor Roland and added the extra chapter of the grand master teacher. He came to the Demon Realm for help this time not only to resolve the crisis of the Kemplot Family, but also for a greater purpose. He wanted to use the power of the Fallen Angel Empire to use the black potion resources to gain the true approval of Emperor Roland in order to defeat the rest of the princes.
Chen Rui didnt know how much Isabella learned from Obsidian, so he told the whole story. The only real thing was Arthurs [Body of Light Blessing].
I also have the highest [Body of Light Blessing] in the royal family, but I was forbidden to learn light magic since childhood. I am also the royal familys direct line, but I can only be used and humiliated forever by those Royal Highness who are my actual brothers. I am not willing! When Chen Rui replayed the drama, he was already quite familiar with the storyline. His emotions and narration were in place.
So Isabella listened very seriously, but shook her head at the end, I should congratulate you for attaining your purpose now. I have lost value to you.
Chen Rui sneered in his heart. As though Charles has been using her. Although it is true, her methods are more vicious. If I hadnt prepared for a backup plan earlier, even if I didnt die during the ambush, I would die in the secret prison.
The drama still had to be continued, so his face showed a self-deprecating smile, Originally, it should be like this. At todays meeting, I I should accept Rommels favor who is acting on behalf of the elder family but I dont know why, I finally chose the should not decision.
Why?
There are too many should and should not in this world. I dont want to ask you why you did that. I only know that without Rommel now, you can do more things that you want to do Its just that, except for the regent, you are the only person who knows this. Please keep it secret for me.
Only the dead are the most credible secrets-keepers. Besides How do you know what I want to do? Isabella smiled charmingly, but her voice was cold, Perhaps it is to make some nasty guy disappear forever?
That is your freedom. Similarly, my choice is also my freedom. Chen Ruis resolute face showed a firm expression, As a man, I dont need to explain more, plus I wont regret it.
This man seems to be a bit foolish, but sometimes being foolish is wiser than being clever. Isabella gazed at him seriously, Your narration and expression are very convincing and contagious, but maybe because Im too sensitive, I always feel as if something has been overlooked. Perhaps things are not that simple? Please forgive me, this is just a womans intuition.
Chen Rui was secretly wary. This woman was in a sense more difficult to deal with than Obsidian. He didnt know exactly what she wanted, and he couldnt grasp the essentials. Yet, she was extraordinarily wise. These kind of words seemed true and false at the same time. It was hard for him to put his guard down.
Therefore, he immediately changed the subject, Actually, I also have an intuition that even if Rommels plan at the meeting today succeeds, Yini seems to have a way to get out. Maybe its a mans instinct.
Lady Isabella. Isabella did not explain. Instead, she deliberately emphasized the problem of his title.
No matter what happened in the past, it is over. I hope we can have a new start, can we? Miss Isabella? If you really feel that Im not qualified, then I will not trouble you. I will disappear before the eyes of the young lady.
The title Miss was exactly what Charles used when he saw Isabella for the first time in the Red Spirit. Isabellas eyes moved slightly. She asked without replying, Even if there are a lot of dangers and accidents?
Even so, yes But I hope to fulfill a promise before these dangers and accidents. Chen Rui looked into Isabellas eyes, Snow Dallet. In the near future, I will go to the Holy Light Mountain and personally pluck the Holy Flower to present it to you.
Isabellas pupils shrank suddenly. Her eyes were instantly filled with complex expressions. This was a request she made to Charles at the beginning. She didnt expect the other party to remember it all the time. Just before he was being taken away by General Doren, he still held her hand and said this.
I havent gone to Holy Light Mountain to personally pluck the Snow Dallet and give it to you yet! So, I will never leave like this!
Chen Rui was just looking for an excuse initially, but he unexpectedly discovered her abnormal mood swings. I remember that when I was holding Isabellas hand to confess before Doren came, she seemed a bit strange too. At that time, I thought it was because of the sudden incident and ignored it. Thinking of it now is this Snow Dallet really famous? Or is it an entry point?
Isabella returned normal in an instant. There was a strange brilliance in her smile, Then I look forward to this day, Sir Charles.
The title Sir had improved much more than the indifferent mister (actually both should be sir, but it doesnt make sense in this sentence). She did not make him disappear. At least it was a good beginning for the relationship between the 2 parties.
The promise was just to stabilize her. During the probing this time, he proactively informed Isabella of his secret by way of confession. Perhaps it was equivalent to telling the mysterious organization about the source of the black potion. The organization most probably would not mess with him again before trying to win this unique resource. This left him a valuable buffer time. As long as the Fallen Angel capital plan succeeded, the identity of Charles would be like Master Arthur who vanished into thin air completely. Even if the organization had various schemes, he was just an illusion.
After Chen Ruis purpose was achieved, he made a sensible gesture and left without bothering her.
Snow Dallet Isabellas palm which was holding her arm trembled a bit. Her nails were deeply pinched into her fair jade-like skin. She did not realize that blood had oozed out. There were a few traces of rare grief and pain in her trembling sound. She seemed to remember an unforgettable hatred.
It wasnt until Krobelus voice sounded that she gradually recovered normal.
Chen Rui didnt know Isabellas true emotions. The capitals strategy had come to an end. He had to go to see another beauty.
The charm of that beauty was even better than Isabella, but for him, the degree of danger was still 10 times more dangerous. (To be continued)
Was he going to the empress again?
