Alice's father arrived, wearing a long black coat and accompanied by a bodyguard-like figure.
His dark eyes, like a deep abyss, swept over the group of people before him, only to disappear again after a few seconds.
It was incredibly fast; if Lin Xiao weren't an ordinary person, he might not have been able to see it.
He sneered. This old guy was really hard to deal with, but so what?
Jiu Mei brought over the coffee for the guests, and he respectfully offered a cup to Alice's father.
Please enjoy your meal.
Prince Adeline looked at this man and felt nothing but displeasure.
He felt that the man's profoundness didn't quite fit the atmosphere.
However, given that he was a pure-blooded prince, he couldn't be impolite for the sake of his daughter's happiness.
After all, Alice had told him before she left that she was determined to marry Shinno Tsuki, so he had no choice.
He pushed the gift he was holding onto the table and looked at Shinno Tsuki's father with a smile.
They were planning to arrange a marriage between the two of them, and if he agreed, Jinno Tsuki probably wouldn't disagree.
"Good brother, let's talk about the marriage of these two young men. Since my daughter likes your son so much, how about we play matchmaker?"
Before his father could speak, Shinno Tsuki interrupted him, speaking in a rather unfriendly tone to this man who had no sense of manners.
“Your Highness, I think you’ve made a mistake. We’re not young anymore, and we shouldn’t be doing things according to your ideas.”
"In other words, I am in charge of my own marriage, and I don't like what you're saying."
Shinno Tsuki's father was embarrassed and didn't know what to do, because he knew his son best.
He's strong-willed and likes to make his own decisions, but he's right, he doesn't actually like that guy's daughter that much.
Let him be.
He smiled gently, touched the time in his hand with an apologetic look, and said to Alice, whose face had turned pale.
"I'm so sorry, Miss Alice, it's probably because my son just returned from abroad."
"You haven't settled into your new roles yet, why don't you go back first, okay?"
Alice felt as if she had been humiliated, trampled underfoot by her beloved.
They even watched her misfortune with the others! Especially the man next to her, who added a comment!
Jiu Mei stood behind Shen Ye Yue, suppressing the urge to hide the young master.
Let him know what he just did—he actually smiled at that woman!
He wanted to punish him and make him realize his mistake!
A chilling aura emanated from his body, but Jiu Mei only took a few seconds to suppress it.
"Your Highness, please don't be angry. The young master didn't mean it that way. He's just not feeling well today..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the irritable prince.
He muttered impatiently, "Does a prince need a servant to educate him? Don't insult him!"
The prince pulled the pale-faced Miss Alice away, looking somewhat disheveled as he left.
Lin Xiao raised an eyebrow. When did this man become so knowledgeable about his thoughts? Did he even know what he was saying?
"May I have your name?"
Jiu Mei smiled and replied, "Young Master, my name is Jiu Mei, or you can call me Mei. I am the steward sent by your father to take care of you."
Lin Xiao interrupted Jiu Mei, already knowing what kind of person she was.
Such a person is as clean as a blank sheet of paper, only knowing how to obey the commands of the one who saved him.
He picked up something that looked like an agreement and tossed it to Jiu Mei, giving her a knowing look.
“Sign it. Come to school with me. You’re so young and you’re already talking about being my housekeeper. Father, you’re being so reckless.”
She glanced reproachfully at her father, who remained silent and mumbled something, as he didn't know what to say.
His obedient son is too independent and filial, so he has nothing to worry about and just lets him be.
But as a father, even if he can't control his son's marriage, he can still care about him, so he asked gently.
"Xiaoyue, should Dad send someone to take you to school? After all, our identities aren't exactly normal, I'm afraid..."
What was he afraid of? He was already used to being a vampire prince, so these things were insignificant to him. He had other things to do.
Lin Xiao personally took Jiu Mei to the school, a high school in S City called S High School, Class 1 of the first year.
Don't assume that Lin Xiao is very young and only went to class one; in fact, it's because the original owner's lover is here.
As the successor to the original owner, he naturally had to take over everything related to the original owner, including the people.
S High School has always been known for its academic excellence; students are either top students or people with special talents, although some people get in by paying money.
The principal was already waiting there. Lin Xiao's arrival was quite a show of sycophancy, and he couldn't believe that someone who acted like a principal would behave like that.
[The host's name is Chen Li, and he's the acting principal of this school. The previous principal has disappeared. Be careful.]
Lin Xiao was somewhat surprised by 009's prompt. This guy actually gave him a hint? Wasn't he the one who didn't care whether he lived or died before?
As if knowing his thoughts, the 009 system gave him another reminder.
[This is a higher-level dimension. If I don't help the host handle it, I'm afraid the host won't be able to manage it well.]
That was quite a grand response. He didn't care about the system's jokes. Even without the system, he would have continued doing it since he was here.
Lin Xiao coldly responded, taking it as an answer to the principal's words, without even giving him a second glance, and simply threw a sentence at him.
"Then I'll trouble Principal Chen to lead the way."
The cold tone made Chen Li feel awkward, but he could only force a smile, because that person had said that when Shinno Tsuki came.
It's essential to keep him in check; that way, their actions won't be discovered.
"Haha, of course. I usually make sure to take good care of the new students. Please come over here with me."
Lin Xiao raised his dark eyes and looked at the sky. A figure appeared in front of him.
Upstairs, his black hair, the same as his, and the sign on his wrist that read "Duty Officer" stood out conspicuously.
He turned his head and asked the principal who he was. The principal said that he was the class monitor of the class he was going to.
He has good grades and is handsome, but it's a bit of a pity that his lover seems to be a boy.
However, he didn't lack female admirers; on the contrary, they became even more obsessed with him.
