A sword

Chapter 106 Sad Departure

As the top venue in the empire, all its facilities are high-end and gorgeous, exquisite and tasteful. The long banquet table runs through the north and south of the small hall, and is full of exquisite food and high-quality wine.

I don't know when several people in musicians' costumes have come to the stage of the venue and play beautiful music with big violins. The whole venue presents a happy scene...

......

......

Lance was surrounded by a crowd, and overwhelmed topics came one after another, which made him a little tired to deal with... In fact, he hated this superficial socializing from the bottom of his heart, but he couldn't stay out of it. In his busy schedule, he did not forget the person in his heart. When he looked back, he saw the back of Ai Jialin getting up and leaving, and couldn't help but be stunned.

He frowned with a little anxiety in his eyes, but he politely apologized to the people around him. Use the excuse of going to the bathroom to get out, and then quietly disappeared into the banquet...

......

......

The moon is frosty white, the night is as cool as water, and there are only sporadic lights on the streets and alleys, yellow and turbid... Ai Jialin walks alone in it, and her back looks a little lonely and bleak...

All the way, his body trembled a little, and his heart was full of legends. The events that happened all night were like drama, suddenly... The hazy good impression of Lance just now was disillusioned, leaving only sadness and confusion.' You are actually the third young master of the great magician Quinn Rosier. Why are you like this... Why did you deceive me...'

"What are you thinking about?" A gentle male voice sounded behind him, just like the rainy night a few weeks ago, as gentle as ever. Ai Jialin listened to the familiar voice behind her and couldn't help but have a pause.

She turned around, stared at her beautiful eyes, and looked fiercely at the people behind her.

Lance's figure was pulled long under the starlight. He slowly walked to the girl and said nothing more, but looked at her gently.

Such familiar but warm eyes finally made the girl unbearable, and tears rolled in her eyes...

"Why didn't you tell me why you cheated me? I was afraid of you and regretted blaming myself, but I didn't expect that all this was just my own affection!" The girl's voice trembled and roared at Lance.

"It's not what you think, Ai Garlin." Seeing that Lance was a little inexplicably distressed, he took two steps forward and wanted to hold her hand as if he were at a banquet.

"Don't come over..." Ai Jialin bit her lips and stepped back a few steps and shook her head and said, "You must feel ridiculous in your heart. I'm just a stupid girl who is very easy to deceive. I thought you were different from their self-righteous and arrogant noble children, but I didn't expect you to hide deeper than them, more than him. We have to be more hypocritical. Neither Zhanli nor Ludi have fought with you today. You must be very happy. Agaline said to herself, retreating to prevent Lance from approaching her, but the tears in her eyes fell down uncanevously.

"No, Ai Jialin... Don't do this..." Lance explained, but he didn't know where everything started. His face was full of sincere concern, and there was heartfelt love and pity. He dared not close the distance with the girl, which made the other party more excited, but he had to be anxious as if he was hot. Ants on the pot.

"Lance, don't look at me with such an expression, do you know it will only make me more uncomfortable? I can't see you clearly, so please don't hurt me anymore..." He shook his head and shook off the picture of Lance smiling gently at himself. Ai Jialin spoke slowly but firmly, and her eyes looked directly at Lance, with a solemn look on her pretty face with tears.

Obviously, she felt that Lance, who hid his identity, was with herself just for fun. The previous simple and innocent appearance would only double Ai Jialin's disgust now. Everything is an illusion. Seeing Lance stunned, Ai Jialin bit her lower lip, turned around, drew a gorgeous arc at the hem of her skirt, and left...

Lance never thought that things would become like this. Ai Jialin's words made him be stunned on the spot. After thinking about it, he couldn't help laughing bitterly... Lance has not taken his identity seriously since he was a child, which was caused by the family environment. This third young master is really incompetent. However, after this incident, Lance's concept has not changed, but everyone's concept of him has changed. Ai Jialin thought he deceived herself. Although Lance thought it was ridiculous, it was actually reasonable. I have to say that this is a difficult misunderstanding to explain clearly...

Now Ai Jialin is on the top of her anger. Anyway, it is useless and may be counterproductive. Lance sighed and thought: Why don't you wait for her to figure it out, and then go back to the college to make it clear...

Lance couldn't help sighing that the good things were long, but he was close to the shadow of the street corner, secretly followed Ai Jialin, and escorted her all the way back to her home...

When Ai Jialin heard that Lance did not chase her, her heart was even more sore. Her nose was sore and she could no longer control it. She cried bitterly. Large tears slipped from her beautiful eyes and fell to the ground... But she always clenched her teeth and refused to make a sound. Such silent tears were the most hurtful. The girl's love is beginning to open, and she is looking forward to the taste of love. But I didn't expect that this scene had just started, but it shattered a seven-orifice exquisite heart and turned it into sad tears in my eyes...

......

......

Looking at the girl crying silently, Lance felt that his heart was also very painful. This feeling was unprecedented in his previous life. In the past, he only knew how to kill the enemy bravely. How could he understand the love of these children? At this time, the whole heart is tied to the beauty in front of her, but she doesn't know what to do. If you are a nobleman who takes pleasure in mixing in the pollen pile at this moment, you will naturally be free to capture the current situation. Unfortunately, Lance didn't know that he should rush forward to hold the beauty in his arms to comfort her, so he could only worry about her. As the saying goes, there is a specialty in the art industry, that's all...

Walking through the street corner of the imperial capital, he finally 'accompanied' Ai Jialin back to the Wojind Chamber of Commerce... Because of the large banquet, most of the nobles in the imperial capital went to the royal banquet hall. At this time, the door of the Wojind Chamber of Commerce was slightly deserted. Obviously, the Chamber of Commerce did not hold any auctions today. There are no special activities. The girl slowly walked to the side door of the Chamber of Commerce, which was even more deserted. She stood alone at the side door, but didn't want to knock on the door, but she didn't know what she was thinking.

The teenager came out of the shadow and looked at the people in front of him worriedly. He was a little overwhelmed. I don't know if I should go forward...

At this time, the sound of the carriage came from the end of the street. Lance looked back and found that it was the carriage of the Wojind Chamber of Commerce. It was the one he took with Garlin before that thought that the lady had been informed by the staff of the banquet hall had left, so the carriage hurried to the Chamber of Commerce. Looking at the familiar carriage, I imagined that the two were still laughing and going to the banquet in the car in the afternoon. At this moment, it became this scene, and suddenly there was an indescribable feeling in my heart.

"Ah, Lance, you..." The sound of the street carriage obviously also shocked the girl standing at the door thinking silently. She looked back, but first saw the teenager standing in the night and couldn't help exclaiming.

Because of thinking about things, the ability to react naturally decreases. When the girl found that Lance would not flash into the darkness again, he looked up at the haggard beauty, felt pain in his heart, and slowly said, "Ai Jialin..." but found that his voice was also a little hoarse.

"Have you... been following me?" Ai Jialin squeezed her lips and asked.

"Well, yes, it's behind you all the way." Lance nodded.

"What are you doing with me..." The girl lowered her head and asked softly.

"I want to protect your safety. How dare I leave without ensuring that you get home safely?" Lance looked at her and said slowly.

"Protect me..." The girl raised her head, her eyes brightened in an instant, and then dimmed again. She shook her head and said, "Lance, I don't want you to protect me... You've been lying to me..."

"No, no, no, Garlene..." Lance quickly shook his head and wanted to explain.

"The carriage is back. Do you want to take you home?" Ai Jialin stared into Lance's eyes and suddenly said.

"Uh...I..." Looking at the girl's eyes and listening to her familiar words, Lance naturally knew that the other party was not really asking if he needed a carriage to be sent home, but reminding himself of one thing.

Looking at the way he lowered her head and couldn't explain, Ai Jialin also slowly lowered her head and stopped looking at him. He said to himself, "No wonder I don't have to see you off every time. It's really close to Bloom Street, but I never thought that you lived in the Great Magician's Mansion on Bloom Street."

"Okay, Lance, you go quickly..." Ai Jialin suddenly said.

Listening to the approaching carriage, Lance sighed, "Well, then you can be quiet. When I get back to the college, I... I'll make it clear to you."

Hearing what the other party said, Ai Jialin suddenly raised her eyes and groaned coldly at him, "I don't want you to come---ah?"

Lance is a person who pays attention to promises and agreements. After making promises and agreements, he has decided to wait for a period of time to go to Ai Jialin to explain the matter, but the girl suddenly opened her mouth and saw that it must be a refusal without surprise. It was not easy to summon up the courage to show his mentality to the other party. If she was It's hard to come up with any more words to bother Lance. He was in a hurry and thought of something else. At this time, it finally reflects the consciousness and operation of his temple knight...

After he finished speaking, he saw Ai Jialin's mouth shape and immediately retreated and disappeared into the darkness, which caused Ai Jialin to have just opened her mouth but could no longer find the person to speak to.

"Oh...is there any mistake... Do you think it's okay if you don't listen to my words?" The originally heartbroken girl was made a little laugh and cry by the stupid method that Lance came up with.

Shaking her head and shaking off many thoughts in her mind, Ai Jialin whispered, "Damn guy, I hate people cheating on me the most... I won't see you again..." After that, she turned around and pushed the door into the Woking Chamber of Commerce...

......

......

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night. Not just for Agaline and Lance. There are also the father and son of Zhanli, who were directly removed from the title because they offend the big man; General Ludi, who smashed everything on the desk in the general's mansion; and many noble children who drank until dawn with extraordinary interest; of course, there are also lonely young women and so-and-and-so men who fell in love at first sight at the banquet, unfolding in ** Their sleepless night...

After Lance returned to the mansion, his father had not returned. But he knew that his father would definitely find him tonight, so he didn't rest at all, just practiced cross-legged in the courtyard.

But I had no choice but to find that I was not in a state at all tonight, which was more impetuous than the night before I visited the West Lake with Ai Jialin and the night before the banquet together. His mind is full of girls, lingering, making his training impossible to continue at all.

Since he couldn't train with peace of mind, Lance simply stood up and ended tonight's practice. He looked up at the sky and looked at the starlight shining in the sky. He was slightly distracted and didn't know what he was thinking.

He used to be the best genius in the temple. He practiced hard, carried out tasks and improved his strength. In fact, there was no trouble. But the only unpleasant thing to say is the relationship with his father. As a sacred knight, each of them is a filial son, but he can't get along well with his father... After rebirth, with the experience of his previous life, he practiced and everything went smoothly, even with his father Quinn Rosier. The relationship has been slowly improved by him and become better. He thought he would have no more troubles, but he didn't expect that he was so annoyed that he had a headache now and didn't know what to do next. After all, neither the powerful martial arts experience in his previous life nor the holy inheritance in the college library have told him how to get along with girls. Thinking of Ai Jialin's sad tears, he even had an impulse to ask him for experience when he came back. However, this stupid idea was quickly rejected by himself. If he raised such a question in front of the great magician, he would have been repaired quite miserable by his furious father...

......

......

"Dong!" ..."Bong!" ..."Bong!" ... A uniform and powerful knock on the door of the courtyard interrupted Lance's thinking.

He took a few deep breaths and calmed down his thoughts. Lance stepped forward steadily and gently opened the door of the courtyard.

Huh? It's you..." Lance was shocked. It was not the imaginary old housekeeper who gently knocked on the door in front of his residence, but the samurai leader in his father's inner courtyard, the mysterious warrior who had been wearing black clothes. Father rarely sends him directly to send a message to himself, and if he comes, he naturally has something important to say to himself. Thinking about the scene above the banquet, Lance felt something in his heart. Presumably the next thing to be greeted was his father's stormy scolding...

"Cough! Young master, it's me." The warrior in black said faintly, bowed slightly to Lance, and then said, "My lord has come back. I order you to meet him in the inner courtyard."

"Well, okay, I know. Then let's go." Lance nodded. He did not train martial arts today, nor did he temper his fighting spirit all over his body, so he didn't sweat, so naturally he didn't have to change his clothes or something.

......

If Lance was ordered to talk in his father's inner courtyard in the past, he would be uneasy. However, after his rebirth, he could face it calmly and deal with it freely, not to mention that his father is not as cold war with himself to the end as in his previous life. Although going today is bound to be a crime, with the previous dinner and friendly conversation, Lance firmly believes that today's father will not be too indifferent to himself.

It is also because of this that he is in the mood to look at the warrior leading the way. In his previous life, this person has always been a very mysterious existence. He trained the elite warrior guards of the family for his father Quinn in the inner courtyard, but he has never really taken action, which makes people feel unfathomable. In his previous life, after Lance reached the peak of the swordsman, the warrior did not appear in front of him again. Every time he returned home, he had a short meeting, and basically broke up with his father, so he never saw this person again, but now he is interested.

"Uh, Uncle Zero." Lance suddenly said. This martial artist is said to be a strong man who followed his father in his early years and has no name, so his father gave him the single word 'zero' as his name, which is also a code name. Generally Lance calls him that.

"Ha ha, young master, what can I do for you?" Zero, the warrior in black, slowed down and walked in the same row with Lance.

"Actually, I've always wanted to ask you a question. I don't know if you can tell me." Lance looked at him and said curiously.

"Oh?" I was interested to see the young master's appearance, because in the past, as long as he heard the master's message to see him, he always looked sad. There was no such light wind and clouds now. The young master can ask whatever he wants to ask, and he knows everything.

"Okay." Lance nodded and said, "I have also seen many strong people in the college. Their martial arts cultivation matches their own breath, and the more powerful people are, the stronger the pressure they carry. I know that your strength is absolutely not weak, and it makes me feel that you are more powerful than our high-level martial arts tutor, but I don't know how your cultivation is?

"What you want to ask is this question..." Ling said slowly, then shook his head and sighed, "I'm very sorry, young master. I'm afraid I can't answer this question, because the master has a strict order, so I naturally dare not disobey it."

"Oh? So that's it." Lance nodded, but didn't expect that he was just curious and asked casually. What he asked was the question of his father's ban. It seems that the strength of this warrior is really unfathomable, and it is really the deep trust of Quinn Rosier, otherwise he would never have made such a request...
