C540 Critical Moment
This was not hatred, nor was there any enemy. Qin Feng felt that these people were very pitiful because they were all going to be buried with the same person.
At this moment, at Stoke's house, Su Lingxue was sitting at the dining table with a reluctant expression on her face.
Opposite her sat a fat youth. He was dressed in gold, and his appearance was extremely dazzling.
It was a unique honor. He was the son of the Duchy's Military Secretary, Bill.
His status was very important in the public domain, even Stoke had to stand respectfully to the side in front of him.
He had no status even if he was in his own home in time. This was the advantage of being a powerful person.
"Princess Snow, you are truly beautiful. I said, do you want to consider it? As long as you are willing to marry me, with my father's support, you will definitely be able to successfully ascend to the throne. At that time, no one in the Duchy will dare to resist the marriage between our two families."
Fatty was drinking the Red Wine, but his vulgar aura made it hard to tell what kind of elegance he had.
It was like a pig's head was resting on a table. The only special thing about it was its identity.
Stoke had just warned her not to offend Bill because his father was really powerful in the government.
If they had his support, they might really be able to get an assistant when they ascended the throne. However, if they didn't get his support, they couldn't be easily provoked. Otherwise, things would become even more troublesome.
"Big brother Jack, I don't want to think about marriage too early. If possible, I would rather stay single for the rest of my life than get married. Don't you think that's right?"
Su Lingxue smiled stiffly. She had no interest in talking to him.
Until now, she had not touched the steak in front of her. She had no appetite at all when she saw Bill's pig-headed face.
Qin Feng went out for a whole day. There was no point in talking about what he was going out for. Sister Meiyun was still waiting for him outside.
Su Lingxue would only be able to completely relax if he returned. Otherwise, she would have the feeling that the entire world was filled with malice.
Heh heh, Xue'er, don't worry. If you marry me, I can guarantee that I won't take any trouble from you and treat you well for the rest of my life. I'm very sincere about that.
Fatty rubbed his chin as his eyes lit up. That kind of light was something that all men understood.
His words, with their many hints and threats, meant that you had no choice but to do so.
Even though it sounded very arrogant, it was the truth. Military Secretary's nobility mainly consisted of military strength.
Like a marshal, his father controlled the entire fleet, which was enough to threaten the throne.
Of course, it was impossible for the king to not have any backup. If he were to reign for one day, his own throne would naturally not be threatened.
But now that he had decided to pass his position to Su Lingxue, Military Secretary had already decided. Even if he didn't want to usurp power, he would definitely take this opportunity to strengthen his own power.
Su Lingxue didn't know how to respond. She was already disgusted, so she could only lower her head and drink the wine without saying a word.
Bill smiled faintly and walked over with a bottle of wine. Su Lingxue raised her head and was shocked. She instinctively grabbed the chair, looking very nervous.
"Xue'er, I really like you. Can you give me a chance to prove myself?"
Bill held the glass of wine and walked over to feed Su Lingxue. He had used it before, and Su Lingxue could see that he had licked the glass.
Thinking of this, she almost vomited. She turned her head away, her expression extremely ugly.
However, in Bill's eyes, this scene seemed to make him feel shy.
"Stoke, you go out. I want to be alone with Princess Snow for a while. I won't call you, you're not allowed to come in, or else I will bear the consequences!"
Bill's words made Stoke feel troubled. He had promised Su Lingxue that he wouldn't let her be alone with strangers.
If he went out now, even if nothing happened, Qin Feng would still blame him when he came back.
The key point was that Bill was a very natural person. In order to reach his goal, he would do anything. If it wasn't for his identity, he would be nothing more than a scum.
If he left now, he really wouldn't be able to relax.
"What, are you disobeying my orders?"
Seeing Stoke not move for a long time, Bill's expression turned ugly as he berated him coldly.
"Master Jack, I …"
Stoke had no reason to. However, he didn't want to go out either, so he was left speechless for a moment.
"Scram!"
Suddenly, Bill screamed at the top of his lungs.
Stoke was still standing at the same place without moving. Seeing that Bill was about to throw a tantrum, the two guards had already walked over.
At this time, Stoke's wife trotted over, bowed to Bill first, then ran to Stoke and pulled him out.
"Stoke, are you going to rebel? You even resisted the orders of Lord Bill. Lord Bill wants to discuss private matters with the princess. Is that something a small company leader like you can listen to?"
Stoke's wife grabbed Stoke, she didn't want to offend Military Secretary because of this matter.
Bill was very vengeful. Although he wouldn't touch Stoke, it was hard to say if he wouldn't touch her family.
Thinking of this, she began to feel uneasy. It was not for them to interfere in the matters between important officials and princesses.
Stoke was forcefully dragged out of the door by his wife. Ye Meiyun happened to turn around and see this scene, so she walked over with a frown.
"Stoke, why did you come out? Where's Xue'er?"
As she said this, Ye Meiyun was about to push open the door and enter when she realized that it was locked from the inside.
Suddenly, her expression turned cold as she questioned Stoke in a cold voice.
"Don't ask, why are you in such a hurry? With Lord Jack here, Princess Snow is very safe. If you're afraid, why are you still staying in our house?"
Stoke's wife stared at Ye Meiyun impatiently and snorted coldly.
Especially the last sentence, which carried a trace of contempt and contempt.
"Crane, don't be rude..."
When Stoke heard this, his expression became serious and he hurriedly reprimanded.
Unexpectedly, his wife didn't care at all and pretended as if she hadn't heard him.
"Miss Meiyun, don't mind her. She's the only one. She's rude and has no self-restraint. Please don't lower yourself to her level."
Stoke explained, but Ye Meiyun waved her hand and interrupted his apology.
"I don't want to know your wife's personality. I just want to know what you promised Qin Feng when he left home. Now Xue'er is with a stranger. Do you feel safe?"
Ye Meiyun looked anxious as she looked at the door. The aura of a strong woman had returned to her body.
At the same time, Stoke felt a bit of pressure as sweat dripped from his forehead.0
"Um, Miss Meiyun, don't worry. Master Jack will know what to do. He will not harm himself, and he will not bring danger to Princess Snow. I can guarantee that!"
In order to reassure Ye Meiyun, Stoke patted his chest and promised her.
