Chapter 288
Otherwise: There will be no such opportunity in the future!
"Ha...haha-Sylphy, you are too annoyed by Alicia and the others, right? You are talking nonsense-"
While trying to cover it up with "joking", he used his eyes to quietly hint Sylphy not to be impulsive!
However, when Jupiter looked over, he found that Sylphy did not act as hysterical as the character of Feizhu in the original game, crying, making a fuss, and hanging herself, and continued to make a fuss!
This is also as it should be! How could his villain lady now be the willful and capricious Feizhu! ?
But he never thought that Sylphy's "calmness" would make him so at a loss one day!
Sylphy seemed to realize that she had said the wrong thing, and took a few steps back in panic!
Then... turned around and ran out of the Duke's study!
Only Jupiter and the Duke and Duchess were left staring at each other!
If he chased after her immediately, of course he could stop Sylphy! But...Jupiter would definitely not do that.
The Duke and Duchess had not yet recovered from the shock brought by Sylphy's "self-explosion" just now!
"I... I'll go see what Sylphy is doing! Lest she do anything impulsive!"
The next moment, realizing that this was also a rare opportunity to get away, he quickly threw down a lame cover-up.
He also turned around and left the study in two steps.
Only the Duke and Duchess of Blacks were left in the quiet study again, not saying a word to each other, as if they had already known what the other was thinking.
"Alas..."
After a long time, the Duke of Blacks let out a long sigh.
And the Duchess smiled bitterly.
It seemed that for the two of them, Sylphy's actions just now... were not unexpected.
Tonight, Jupiter didn't dare to go to Sylphy to add fuel to the fire.
But: this also made him miss the only opportunity to immediately understand Sylphy's thoughts.
Because, the next day: When Jupiter, who had been tossing and turning all night and couldn't sleep all night due to various accidents that happened that night, fell asleep in the early morning, when he woke up near noon...
he found that Sylphy had disappeared!
And she didn't hide from him and the Duke and Duchess and went back to the summer palace first.
Instead, she took a few servants and ran to a town outside the Imperial City that belonged to the territory of the Blacks family.
Rounding it off, it means "returning home."
The original words of the head maid were: "Miss Sylphy will go to the countryside for a few days. Because she wants to be quiet, Jupiter, don't go to find the eldest lady."
After saying that, she looked at him with a strange look.
"Jupiter, you..."
Looked like he wanted to say something but stopped.
But Jupiter, who was immediately stunned, didn't have the heart to accompany the head maid to be a riddler! ?
He immediately ran away and ran to find the Duke and Duchess!
The Duke and Duchess obviously knew about it - otherwise how could Sylphy achieve this in such a short time alone! ?
Even if the maids in the Duke's Mansion obeyed Sylphy's orders, they would never let Sylphy take them around! ?
However: Today, the Duke and Duchess' attitudes were the same!
The Duke said: Sylphy should reflect on herself! As the only daughter of the Blacks family, how could she slander the little princess of the eldest prince's faction and the daughter of the diplomat of the elves with prejudice at such a critical time! ?
Only the Duchess's attitude was slightly more tactful, thinking: Sylphy should also use this opportunity to calm down and just "relax"-
The two... did not ask Jupiter about who the "fiancé" who did not get an answer last night chose.
They did not even mention the words that Sylphy "exploded" and shouted last night... What exactly did it mean?
Was it a joke or serious?
How many sincere words would be subconsciously spoken when they were so excited?
Jupiter didn't have the heart to ask, so he could only pack up silently. Then he returned to the summer palace in the palace area alone in the evening.
He couldn't really ignore Sylphy's mood
and chase after her like a silly straight man, right? Even he felt that Sylphy's recent tangled mind might really be suitable for her to calm down alone.
After all: it was a blessing in disguise - the Duke and Duchess did not ask any more questions about who he would choose as his fiancée, and most likely it would be left unresolved.
Finally it was delayed.
But it was only a temporary respite.
And... it was exchanged for Sylphy's temporary escape from him. It was really not worth it to him - he would rather choose one without any choice...
Then he rested his head on Sylphy's thighs, smelled the fragrance of Sylphy's body, and spent a sleepless night.
Instead of... now.
"Lord Jupiter, Lord Jupiter?"
"!"
The next moment, a familiar voice woke him up from his wild thoughts! Jupiter realized that when his mind was full of the worry of "Sylphy avoiding him", he had actually returned to the Summer Palace in a daze.
He washed his body casually, but still couldn't get rid of the distracting thoughts in his mind.
It was already night, and he was sitting stupidly at the desk in his bedroom, daydreaming!
The one who called him back to his senses was Liz, who had officially become a maid in the manor where he and the other three women lived. She was the real heroine in the storyline of the eldest princess in the original game.
I saw: Liz in front of him was carefully observing his every move!
It seemed that she came to ask him if he wanted to have a simple midnight snack - he had been a little dazed all day and naturally hadn't eaten a single grain all day, so it was inevitable that his stomach would protest at this time!
Jupiter, who had come to his senses, responded immediately.
"Ah! It's Liz... Sorry, I was thinking about something else just now."
Jupiter didn't want to show too much distress in his heart.
However, he left with Sylphy, but came back alone - even a fool could see that something serious had gone wrong on the day he and Sylphy returned to the Duke of Blacks's mansion.
Liz immediately asked tentatively: "Is it... Miss Sylphy not coming back?"
However, Liz seemed to care more about his reaction than his concern.
"Did something unpleasant happen between you and Miss Sylphy?"
If it was just a quarrel with Sylphy, that would be fine! Sylphy is not the kind of girl who "ran back to her parents' home casually", right! ?
He wanted to hide it, but...
He was already dizzy because of his worries.
So, he glanced at the real princess in front of him.
He sighed and smiled bitterly.
"Anyway, can you see what's left in the kitchen and make me some midnight snacks?"
It was also to let him sort out his thoughts.
If you keep some things secret, maybe finding someone to talk to can make him feel a little relieved at the moment.
——
The picture of Sylphy's pillow has been updated-
Although it's just a preview, those who understand will understand, so spend money! I hope I can take it home.
211. When there is work, the secretary does it, when there is nothing, the secretary Gan! (5000 words)
It was said that Lizhe could find some snacks left over from dinner and fill his stomach as a midnight snack, but Lizhe probably still started the stove in a hurry, baked him some fragrant and soft croissants, and prepared some easy-to-digest cream soup.
The power of the fire magic stone was turned to the maximum for Lizhe, and it was buzzing in the kitchen!
Then she carefully carried the plate to his bedroom, temporarily used the desk as a dining table, prepared the tablecloth, and tied an apron for him.
Finally, she stood aside obediently, watching Jupiter wolf down the food without saying a word - he had been thinking about Sylphy hiding from him for an entire afternoon, and when he came to his senses, Jupiter's stomach had already protested loudly!
Moreover, he thought: Although it was a bit impolite, Lizhe, the real princess in the princess line, really did not work in vain as a maid!
Her cooking skills are so good! Damn, what kind of delicious food did that fake Anjie enjoy before! ?
As if she had noticed his "surprise", Liz, who had just stood aside and looked at him carefully with a tentative look. It was as if she had found an opportunity to talk to him!
Moreover, she did not hesitate for a moment.
She immediately asked: "Lord Jupiter, is it... still to your taste? I have just become your maid for a short time, and I don't know your preferences..."
Jupiter thought: What do you mean by my maid! ? Miss Liz, you have become the maid of this manor! Don't talk as if you have become my personal maid!
However: Jupiter is too lazy to be fussy about such details.
Swallowing a mouthful of bread covered with thick soup, tasting the mellow and sweet taste, which is not inferior to the bread made by the maids in the Duke's mansion.
Nodding, she said, "Perfect."
The bread was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, and it was soft and delicious, which clearly proved that it was not the first time for Liz to use the oven and the fire magic stone, but she had already mastered it.
The cream of mushroom soup was also thick but not thick, sweet and not greasy. It seemed that Liz was also very skilled in the use of the spoon.
To be honest, it was much better than his own cooking skills.
After receiving the praise, Liz's eyes were immediately filled with excitement.
Don't talk while eating, don't talk while eating, a real princess would not understand this?
So she didn't bother him anymore, but just stood beside him in a straight posture, listening to the gentle chewing and swallowing sounds he made in the room.
The food that filled her stomach, the sweets that warmed her stomach, and a beautiful maid who seemed to "understand him" but remained silent, Jupiter felt that his mind had finally calmed down and was somewhat charged.
The idea of wanting to "confide" to Liz just now also gradually emerged.
After all: Others might think that telling the maid about their troubles is because the gossip among the maids in the manor is not spreading fast enough?
But he who knows Liz's true identity doesn't have to worry about this - how could the princess be someone who talks nonsense?
Moreover, in the original game's eldest princess story line, the male protagonist who normally entered Liz's route - the royal knight Friede also had a similar experience of "complaining to Liz".
Coincidentally, the content of Freed's worries is also related to the "engagement" - of course the majestic knight will not worry about whether there are flowers around him, Freed just feels that those who want to kick down the threshold of the manor where he lives Girls in the capital are a bit scary when they get angry.
Jupiter doesn't have such beautiful worries.
But, I thought: Anyway, Fred has already gotten into the dog-licking route, so it’s not too much for him to borrow the part of "Fred complaining to Lize" in the original plot, right?
Not for anything else, just to have a good relationship with this real eldest princess.
By the way: He really wanted to find an unrelated person who could keep the secret and vent his tangled emotions at the moment.
So, as if she felt his thoughts, Lize took away the plate and washed it after he finished eating...
Obviously after washing the dishes, she no longer had any duties as a maid, and naturally she no longer had to accompany him, but Lise still returned to his room as if she had "a clear understanding" and stood respectfully in front of him...
Jupiter, who was more or less prepared in his mind, whispered with distress.
"Sylphy got into trouble over my engagement, and now she's gone to the Blacks family's rural territory."
Having said this, Jupiter raised his head and looked at the real princess in front of him.
"As for my engagement... I have postponed it with the Duke for now. But this is just a temporary solution, not the root cause, and now Sylphy is also avoiding me..."
There was no heroic behavior like "Dora Rize, think of a solution quickly", and Jupiter didn't expect Rize to take out any magic weapon from her pocket.
He just felt that if it was the eldest princess who stayed away from the incident, she could at least... listen to his complaints, right?
This is indeed how it developed.
When she looked again, Lize had narrowed her eyes slightly, thinking deeply.
Their eyes met and they took a step forward.
He asked cautiously, but with some kind of curiosity.
