Chapter 310

Anton was extremely speechless to Sergey, seeing the other party's appearance, he was treating him as a novice who didn't understand anything. To be honest, this is a bit too much, no matter what, he and Li Xiao are in charge of this matter, bluntly speaking, without their previous jobs, neither Count Rostovtsev nor Sergey even have a chance to intervene. No.

But now, the other party thinks that he doesn't understand anything and that he is unreliable. Isn't this too underestimating?

Anton was rather reserved and self-restraining. Although he was a little upset, he didn't say anything strange. He only thought that Sergei was kind and afraid that he wouldn't understand the importance of it.

He responded lightly: "I know."

From Anton's point of view, this conversation is over, and then everyone will do their own work and just say goodbye. But I don’t know if Sergey misunderstood it or felt that Anton’s indifferent look seemed to not understand the importance of the matter. He took the trouble to emphasize it again:

"Remember, you must keep an eye on it, and you can't make any mistakes. You must not have any chances, this is very important!"

Anton was really speechless this time. He had done this kind of work of tracking and monitoring countless times. As for emphasizing it again and again! What's more, he was the one who had been monitoring Grand Duke Constantine and Shuvalov before, and he was the first to discover the problems of these two guys!

Anton suddenly replied with a little displeasure: "I know! I'm better at tracking and monitoring than you!"

Well, this sentence is a bad thing. Sergey feels that Anton's attitude is not correct. What does it mean to be more expert than him? So what if you're good at tracking and surveillance? Isn't this just a coolie with no technical content? What's wrong with you, a coolie, so proud!

I have to say that Sergey is indeed a little inexplicably proud of the aristocratic circle of St. Petersburg. He felt that he was from St. Petersburg and was the private secretary of Count Rostovtsev, so he was naturally more noble than a provincial like Anton.

An elite like him, who has seen the big world and experienced big scenes, should be regarded as a leader by the country bumpkins in the provinces. The bumpkins have to be cautious and respectful when talking to him, at least they can't be completely indifferent like Anton.

This damned sense of pride is the main reason why Sergey is unhappy with Anton, but not all, the second reason is Anton's previous credit.

Count Rostovtsev mentioned to Sergey that Anton had done a good job in dealing with Kiev's affairs on his own before, and asked Sergey to communicate with Anton and learn more.

At that time, although Sergey promised very well, he still felt a little disapproving and even a little bit like competing with Anton in his heart.

This mentality will naturally be suppressed in the presence of Count Rostovtsev,

But once Count Rostovtsev was not there, the devil in Sergey's heart emerged.

He couldn't help but want to overwhelm Anton and make him obey his command. It's best to teach Anton to be obedient, so that he can announce to the world: "See, I, Sergei, are better. The local leopards from other provinces are totally useless!"

Therefore, as long as Anton is a little bit "disrespectful", Sergey's sensitive nerves will be touched, and Anton's attitude just now seems to him to be very unreasonable, so he is highly dissatisfied and must be taught a lesson. Let's go to Anton.

"What's your attitude?" Sergey taught in a very strong tone: "Don't think that a little achievement before is nothing special, you can do all the cats and dogs well! The Earl praised you, it is hard for you Keep working hard, not let you be the capital to show off!"

Anton was fooled by the rumors, he was at a loss - he didn't know that Count Rostovtsev had praised him, and even if he had, he didn't think there was anything to show off, he didn't care about the count at all. A few words of praise, I feel that it is meaningless!

Let's put it this way, maybe Count Rostovtsev is a particularly important and crucial figure in Sergey's heart. But in Anton's heart, the earl's status is not as good as Li Xiao's or even Alexei's.

Naturally, Count Rostovtsev's praise meant nothing to him.

So Anton replied very calmly: "I don't understand what you mean by saying that? I don't think there is anything wrong with my attitude. By the way, I don't think there is anything to show off when you are praised casually. I'm not that superficial!"

After a short pause, he still asked calmly: "Now, Mr. Sergey, do you have any other questions? If not, then goodbye!"

Sergey was really pissed off right now. Anton's calmness seemed to him to be pretending to be aggressive or rebellious, or he didn't pay attention to him, a gentleman in St. Petersburg, at all. This made him unbearable at all, and immediately roared:

"Stop!"

It's just that after shouting to stop Anton, he himself was stunned, because he remembered that firstly, he was not Anton's superior, and Anton was not even Count Rostovtsev's. The second is what to do after calling the other party? Scold him?

Sergey felt that if he yelled at him, it would appear that he had no self-restraint and tolerance, and it would be too easy to attract the attention of outsiders. After all, he was the secretary of Count Rostovtsev, and if he was found to be in contact with Anton again, he might be afraid. Expose the relationship between Count Rostovtsev and Li Xiao.

Count Rostovtsev paid special attention to this relationship, and he repeatedly told him to keep it secret. If he was exposed because of a moment of anger, the count would never spare him.

What's more, judging from Anton's previous attitude, he didn't take him seriously at all. If he scolded the other party, he might scold him back. He really might not be able to take advantage.

After thinking about it, Sergey felt that he couldn't be so reckless. Even if he wanted to teach Anton a lesson, he had to make a decision before making a move.

So he wanted to stop, but just now he stopped Anton again. If he didn't show any sign now, wouldn't he be looked down upon by the other party? Maybe even laugh at him.

Sergey felt ashamed when he thought about it, he hesitated again, and said decisively after thinking for a while: "I will truthfully report your attitude to the count!"

Well, it’s actually more embarrassing for Sergey to say that. This is a typical case of finding the parents if you can't win, or suing if you can't win. This is something that only villains and children do, and it is ridiculous to Anton anyway.

If it wasn't for the consideration of the cooperative relationship between the two parties, Anton would definitely say something back, but in order to avoid intensifying the conflict, he just responded lightly: "As you wish!" Then he waved his hands and walked away...
