Chapter 581
Ariel raised her legs and stepped on the bench, bumped her elbows on her knees, held a toothpick she didn't know where she got in her mouth, put on a very handsome (thought she thought) gesture, and said:
"The important thing is...intuition. My intuition is always very accurate. Miss Mousse, although I don't know what you want to do, I don't think you are a bad person. I...believe you!"
"..."
Looking at Ariel who looked like a promiscuous lover, Mu En fell into silence again.
how to say?
This guy is worthy of being the protagonist of the harem in the original book. This kind of sincerity towards the girl is indeed dazzling to a certain extent, so dazzling that I can't help but feel moved to tears.
However, should I say that her intuition was accurate...or not?
"You...will you really always believe me?" Mu En suddenly asked.
"certainly!"
Ariel stretched out her hand, like a hero about to save the girl from suffering, and said:
"Miss Mousse, there is no need to be shy or afraid. I will trust you unconditionally! I promise!"
"That……"
Mu En smiled shyly:
"Can you turn your head? I have a surprise for you."
"surprise?"
Ariel was stunned, and intense joy suddenly burst out in her heart.
Could it be that……
Because of her desperate actions, will Miss Mu Si finally let go of her shyness and guardedness?
Did your first step finally succeed?
Without any hesitation, Ariel turned her head, and even took the initiative to close her eyes without Mu En mentioning it.
"How long do you have to wait...I can't wait any longer." Ariel was eager to give it a try.
"Okay, you can turn back."
"Great, I..."
Ariel looked back with excitement, but what she saw was not the "surprise" of the beautiful girl, but...
Fallen metal ornaments.
Boom.
Accompanied by a familiar muffled sound, Ariel rolled her eyes and slowly fell to the ground, with the expectant expression still on her face.
"call……"
Looking at Ariel who fainted, Mu En put down the metal ornament that had made outstanding achievements and ended the fate of the protagonist and the eldest prince at the same time, and wiped the non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes.
"How should I put it? No matter what, I'm really happy that you have this trust."
After all, I might not be able to beat this guy head-on.
Fortunately, I was not a beautiful girl who would be moved by unconditional trust, and I had no real intention to assassinate the eldest prince.
Ariel's handsomeness is used in the wrong place.
"Let's find a place to throw you away first."
Confirming that the eldest prince and his maid would not wake up in a short time, Mu En dragged Ariel's feet and walked outside with Ariel, who was facing the ground but not feeling much friction.
"Seriously, it's great that your guy's head doesn't have the same structure as a steel plate."
Mu En was extremely happy again.
125. Formal communication
Royal Gardens, somewhere.
When the silent footsteps left, Ariel suddenly opened her eyes.
The weather was fine, with few clouds, and the stars were shining brightly, which was reflected in her eyes, which were clear and bright, without the turbidity and confusion of a person who has fainted.
"well……"
She touched the big bag on her forehead and stood up, and sighed softly:
"I didn't expect that the beauty doesn't want me to deal with those things with her. Doesn't she still trust me? What a pity."
She didn't feel that sneak attack on a prince was a big deal. Anyway, it wasn't the first time she had done it. She was very skilled and confident that she wouldn't leave any traces.
"But... speaking of it, the tone in which she said those words before always feels familiar to me. I seem to have heard it somewhere... Where?"
After thinking about it, I couldn't find the answer.
People's thinking is always like this. They seem familiar with something, but they can't find the reason.
Or maybe some logical reasoning ran into some unexpected dead end at the very beginning.
"never mind."
Ariel smiled freely, throwing away those doubts, and then suddenly held her cheek again, murmuring to herself with a joyful expression:
"Ah, I would rather use this method than involve me. Miss Mousse, do you really have me in your heart?"
"Next time we meet, I must completely get involved with you. After all, I still have your...who!"
Ariel's nymphomaniac expression suddenly faded, and she looked at the shadow not far away with cold eyes.
The rare flowers swayed, and among the rustling branches and leaves, a short figure gradually appeared.
"Brother...eldest brother?"
The figure appeared, but he was not short. It was just because the man was sitting in a wheelchair that he looked only half a person tall.
The familiar face that emerged from the shadows was Ariel's half-brother, Orlando.
"Why are you here? Aren't you not going to the dance?"
Ariel narrowed her eyes, exuding a chill unceremoniously.
"No, no, no... Ariel, you misunderstood, I was not following you."
Orlando, who was sitting in a wheelchair, also looked a little surprised. It seemed that he did not expect to see his sister here, but he quickly put aside his surprise and said with a smile:
"I came to the palace because I have other things to do. Now that I'm done with that, I just came to the garden to relax."
"Only you?"
"Ariel, your words are a bit hurtful."
Orlando patted his knees and said with a wry smile:
"Although I am only disabled now, I still have the basic ability to take care of myself, but Ariel..."
Orlando looked around and said doubtfully:
"Why are you here? The dance is not held here anymore."
"Just like you, relax."
Ariel deadpanned.
"That……"
Orlando tried:
"Let's go for a walk together?"
"No, the dance isn't over yet."
Ariel turned around and left without looking back. She didn't have the slightest thought of being close to her brother: "If I, the heir of the Bugard family, can't stay at the ball until the end, my eldest brother will also be distressed."
"you……"
Orlando chuckled: "I never said that."
"I'm leaving."
"Oh well."
Orlando looked at his sister's back, his deep eyes flashing with light, but he still nodded his head in a gentle tone and said goodbye:
"Go slowly, see you later."
"..."
…
…
"Hiss...it hurts."
Albert opened his eyes and saw the familiar ceiling of his room.
But he didn't feel at all relieved. After being confused for a moment, he thought of something and immediately stood up and looked around cautiously.
The maid lay beside him obediently, breathing evenly, and seemed to be fine.
Albert breathed a sigh of relief, continued to look up...and then froze.
The expected murderer did not appear, or rather, it seemed that he did not appear.
However, in the little light coming in from the window, in the swaying of the gauze, in front of the familiar antique mahogany table in the room, a beautiful blond girl held her chin and looked demurely at the Royal Garden not far away. .
The starlight reflected her face, no flaws could be seen, it was so beautiful.
If it were normal times, after waking up and seeing such a beautiful girl sitting next to him, it would definitely feel like a beautiful dream, but Albert still couldn't help but think of the sudden black shadow before.
"Who are you……"
"You're awake."
Albert asked subconsciously, disturbing the sculpture-like beautiful girl. She turned her head, outlined the corners of her mouth, and smiled slightly:
"Good evening, Your Highness Albert."
"Good evening...good evening."
Unable to figure out the other party's approach, Albert had no choice but to continue to be conciliatory for the time being:
"I am..."
"Ah... Well, actually, Your Highness Albert, you were attacked by a thief who didn't know where he came from. Fortunately, I happened to pass by at the time, so I saved you."
The beautiful girl said seriously:
"It's really dangerous. I didn't expect that you, a majestic prince, don't even have a guard by your side. Even if this is a palace, it is still very dangerous. Fortunately, I was passing by this time, otherwise I don't know what would happen. , so Your Highness must be careful in the future. Boys can easily encounter danger when they go out. At least you should bring more guards..."
"..."
Albert stared at Mu En, who was talking eloquently without even turning his eyes, and the corners of his eyes began to beat uncontrollably.
It's true. If I had seen your face the moment before I fainted, I would never forget it, otherwise I would have believed it.
hiss……
Thinking of the attack just now, Albert felt a throbbing pain in his head again, and subconsciously touched his head that was covered with bandages.
"Ah, by the way, when I was checking your injuries just now, I found that you seemed to have old injuries on your head."
Mu En pointed to his head:
"That's... okay."
"..."
Albert's body stiffened slightly, but he quickly returned to his natural state.
"I'm fine..."
He took a deep breath, and in an instant, he turned into the gentle and elegant prince again, smiling peacefully at Mu En:
"Compared to those insignificant things, what I want to know more is...who are you and what do you want to do?"
"Don't worry, don't be nervous. This is the palace. I don't dare to do anything excessive." Mu En quickly explained: "I just want to chat with Prince Albert."
"..."
