Susan crossed her legs and sat on the sofa, holding a glass of red wine. The light above her head shone on her face. Her fair skin was so shiny that it was impossible to tell her true age from her appearance.
This fox is really charming.
"Miss Yelena, if you are willing to stay, believe me, I will make you as charming as the Candle Knight, and I will make you good friends. No matter where you come from, or what you have done before, it doesn't matter. In this city , you are unique.”
Promises are very tempting. If Yelena feels that her will is not strong enough, she will definitely choose to stay and go to the other side of life.
But she can't.
She cannot abandon those who have come along the way, whether it is the Yeti Team or the Integration Movement.
"I reject."
When Yelena said these three words, she seemed to have put down something. She said seriously: "Director Susan, I worked in this mobile city for a few months before becoming a competitive knight. It is true that, as you said, there are many places here. They are all opportunities. As long as you can seize them, you can soar into the sky and become a great person. But what I see are not those glamorous and successful people, but thousands of ordinary people like me who work in obscurity."
“When I first arrived in this city, I liked to go for a walk by the river around the city at night, but I stopped going there later because I found that every night there were poor, bankrupt people drinking by the river and ending their lifeless lives. Salvage crews picked up the bodies the next day and disposed of them, and if the wilderness is full of dangers, then so is this city, which to me is no different from the wilderness.”
Even scarier.
Yelena added in her heart.
Maybe there was something wrong with her view, but that was what she thought. A few months would be enough for her to adapt to the new life, and she was not a little girl who had just come to the city from a wilderness settlement and could be frightened by a few words.
Susan didn't speak for a long time. She put the wine glass to her lips, took a sip and said calmly: "Miss Yelena, I have invested a lot in you. Don't be nervous. I don't want you to pay anything. There is no need. Your fame has already made me a lot of money, and I don’t want to do any more meaningless things. Now, can you please do one thing for me?”
Yelena looked serious. She had known for a long time that someone had invested in her. Especially the bow in her hand, which greatly increased her Origin Stone skills and reduced the consumption a lot. It was a very suitable weapon.
At this moment, Susan said it herself, which actually made her feel more at ease.
She asked: "At least let me know how to help you and what to do for you."
"It's very simple," Susan moved her hips and changed her posture, Feng Qingyun said calmly, "Tomorrow's round of competition, you should be able to enter the top sixteen. If you meet the Blood Knight, Candle Knight, Shining Knight or Flawless Knight, I hope you can abstain. The next battle is not yours. I can promise you that even if you stop at the top 16, I will issue you a knighthood. Then, you can choose to retire or continue to stay in this city. No one will stop you."
Yelena was surprised: "Is that just that?"
With her strength, it is very easy to be promoted from the wheel battle. She can continue to fight or give up and withdraw from the competition. In other words, after receiving Susan's promise, her journey in the knight competition has come to an end.
"By the way, remember to return that bow to me. I'm just lending it to you, don't take it away."
"I will."
Yelena responded.
It was just asking her to fight fake matches. She was already tired of this competition that was just like a show.
When she walked out of the restaurant, her shoulders were extremely relaxed, thinking that she would be able to go back soon. The snow monsters must miss her, right?
Yelena's footsteps suddenly stopped, and she saw a young couple on the roadside. The man gently pinched the girl's nose, and the latter raised her face, opened her arms and swayed, making a cute sound.
Miss Wolper hugged the man's waist and pressed her face against his chest.
"It would be nice if it could keep going like this."
"Are you drunk?"
The man put his hand on the girl's back and raised his head, just in time to see the white Carters looking at him.
hiss.
Such a coincidence?
Zhou Jinru's scalp felt numb.
He waved his hand: "Hello."
Angelina realized that there was someone else, and when she took a closer look, it turned out to be Yelena. Instead of letting go, she hugged her harder.
Yelena said calmly: "Do you need me to sign for you?"
She is an Ice Knight and is well-known in the Grand Knights. There is nothing wrong with signing autographs for fans.
As expected, this man is still the same. There are always women around him, whether they are children or older people, one after another.
"OK."
Zhou Jinru had no choice but to agree, he couldn't refuse.
Yelena snorted: "Sorry, I forgot to bring my pen, maybe next time."
"Then definitely next time!"
Carters did not respond, turned around and left. There was already a vehicle waiting on the roadside, so she got in the car and left.
Angelina whispered: "Doctor, have I ruined your good deeds?"
"I had no idea she was here, and didn't you see, she was not polite to me at all."
"Really? I obviously heard that you like white-haired Draco and white-haired Carters."
Zhou Jinru: "..."
The first half of the sentence was indeed said by him, but it was a joke, how could it be taken seriously? As for the second half, it was purely a rumor and had never been said.
Always in my heart.
As soon as Yelena left, Susan came out on the back and saw the two people at the door of the restaurant.
The little fox covered his lips in surprise: "Your Majesty, why are you here?"
As soon as Susan appeared, Angelina's alarm suddenly started ringing!
What’s with the pointed ears, long hair, big tail, more attractive figure, charming face, and the title of King?
Angelina felt that her position was being challenged, but she didn't expect that the real threat was not the four rumored girlfriends, but from the outside!
The doctor is messing around with women again!
Zhou Jinru said helplessly: "Do you believe me when I say this was an accident?"
"I believe it."
Susan glanced at Angelina and seemed to understand something. After blowing a kiss, she twisted her slender waist and walked away.
"Doctor, you're already gone, are you still watching?"
"I did not see."
Zhou Jinru withdrew his gaze.
In the direction Susan left just now, a powerful Source Stone skill seemed to erupt, and even the horizon was illuminated for a moment.
This Source Stone skill comes and goes quickly, making it difficult for ordinary people to sense it.
"Let's go back."
"Um."
There were quite a few surprises today. First, Titus was cheating on the match, then he accidentally saw Yelena and Susan having a secret meeting, and just now he discovered a very powerful Originium skill.
Zhou Jinru sighed. He just wanted to go back to sleep now.
