Chi Sui had a rare good night's sleep.
When I woke up, it was already noon the next day.
Ole went to the Chinese restaurant early and brought back lunch, which was heating up in the pot.
The witch was sitting beside Chi Sui's bed, spraying perfume.
Seeing Chi Sui wake up, the witch looked into her eyes and said, "Lady Baroness, even practicing magic requires rest."
Chi Sui was stunned, lowered his eyes, and nodded randomly.
The witch continued to nag: "You don't have to push yourself so hard."
"Making money while practicing magic is a burden on your body."
Chi Sui raised his eyes and said lazily, "There are always villains who want to harm me."
"Learning to use the power of light is a guarantee for my safety."
The witch raised an eyebrow, glanced out the window, and suddenly said, "The Demon King asked me to bring you a message."
Facing Chi Sui's dark brown eyes, the witch chuckled softly, "You may seem useless to outsiders, but at least you have freedom."
Chi Sui knew very well what Long Xi meant by asking the witch to take her. She was thrown into this place because she did not have the power of light. But if the people in the palace knew that she possessed the power of light, then she would probably have to return to the palace and serve the king.
Chi Sui nodded: "I know. I know my limits."
The witch raised her eyebrows and gave Chi Sui ten bottles of potion, saying that they were potions to enhance physical fitness. She asked Chi Sui to drink a bottle when he was overtired to prevent himself from falling ill again.
So, after taking three silver coins from Chi Sui, Ole sent the witch away.
Chi Sui lowered his eyes and curled his lips.
……………………
Cassio Palace.
Ruan Ruan was wearing a holy lace dress and sitting in the garden drinking afternoon tea.
Next to her stood a round-faced maid.
The maid bowed respectfully: "Saint, the Knight Commander wishes to see you."
Ruan Ruan frowned subconsciously. The Knight Commander was Fu Mingcheng.
He was very good at using fire magic and had just contracted a dragon some time ago, so he was in high spirits.
But inexplicably, Ruan Ruan didn't want to see him.
Fu Mingcheng was the son of luck in the previous world, but when he came to this world, his luck value was only 86.
It's higher than the Great Magician's, but...
"Ruan Ruan!"
Fu Mingcheng was wearing silver armor and walked towards Ruan Ruan with a smile.
Ruan Ruan put away the impatience in her eyes, turned around gently and smiled at Fu Mingcheng.
"Mingcheng, why are you here?"
Fu Mingcheng walked to Ruan Ruan in three steps, with his hands behind his back: "Guess what I brought you?"
Ruan Ruan's eyes were filled with anticipation: "What is it? Tell me, Mingcheng!"
Fu Mingcheng couldn't stand Ruan Ruan's coquettishness at all, and immediately put his hands behind his back in front of Ruan Ruan: "Look."
Ruan Ruan looked down and found a sea-blue forehead ornament in the exquisite wooden box.
very beautiful.
But Ruan Ruan couldn't get excited.
"Wow! Mingcheng is so beautiful!"
She took the box with a smile and held it in her hand, but she never touched the ornaments inside.
Fu Mingcheng scratched the back of his head and reached out to hug Ruan Ruan. He didn't notice the hint of impatience in Ruan Ruan's eyes and forced Ruan Ruan into his arms.
"Ruan Ruan... let's get married."
Ruan Ruan rested her forehead on Fu Mingcheng's shoulder. Where he couldn't see, Ruan Ruan said expressionlessly, "But, Brother Mingcheng, I can't do this."
Fu Mingcheng was stunned. He lifted Ruan Ruan's head and saw that her eyes were slightly red and she looked guilty.
Unconsciously, Fu Mingcheng's heart softened: "Ruan Ruan, can you tell me why?"
Ruan Ruan's eyes were red, and her face was moved: "Sister Chi...she was very good to me before...she loved you so much, but because of me..."
"Mingcheng, I can't let go of Sister Chi... I want her sincere blessing... That way, I can be free from all worries..."
Ruan Ruan spoke, tears streaming down her face.
Fu Mingcheng was getting annoyed with Chi Sui for no reason. He held Ruan Ruan's face and said, "Ruan Ruan! Don't care about what she thinks! She is just a vicious woman. She is not worth your care!"
Ruan Ruan shook her head, tears streaming down her face. "No, Brother Mingcheng, my thoughts and feelings will not change on this point! Brother Mingcheng, if you really love me, please respect my thoughts, okay?"
Fu Mingcheng sighed and gently stroked the corners of Ruan Ruan's eyes. He nodded and gave a soothing smile: "Ruan Ruan, don't cry. I will listen to you."
A smile appeared on Ruan Ruan's lips. She stood on tiptoe and kissed the corner of Fu Mingcheng's mouth.
In the distance, the great magician lowered his eyes, no longer looking at the two people kissing, hid the box in his hand into his sleeve, turned around and walked out.
At this moment, the system's voice sounded: "The Great Magician Dennis appears within the attack range, host, please pay attention."
Ruan Ruan's eyes quickly swept over and saw a corner of the white robe. A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she subconsciously pushed Fu Mingcheng away.
Fu Mingcheng was pushed away and looked at Ruan Ruan in surprise: "Ruan Ruan? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Ruan Ruan wiped the corner of her lips with the back of her hand and gave Fu Mingcheng a stiff smile: "Brother Mingcheng, I suddenly remembered that it's time for my class."
"It's not good to be late."
A hint of disappointment flashed across Fu Mingcheng's eyes, but he knew that Ruan Ruan had been working very hard as a saint during this period, so he said nothing. He just took out an exquisite purse and handed it to Ruan Ruan: "This is my salary this month. I've kept some for daily expenses, and the rest is for you."
"If you come across anything you like, just go ahead and buy it."
Ruan Ruan nodded, put away her purse, smiled at Fu Mingcheng, lifted her skirt and ran to the church.
Fu Mingcheng kept watching Ruan Ruan's departing figure until he could no longer see her. Then he revealed a lost expression: "Ruan Ruan has been so busy lately..."
Inside the church, the great magician Dennis was reading the Bible.
His voice was so soft that the waiter couldn't hear which part he was reading.
As soon as Ruan Ruan walked into the church, Dennis stopped chanting.
Ruan Ruan slowly walked to Dennis and smiled innocently: "Teacher, what are we going to learn today?"
Dennis subconsciously avoided Ruan Ruan's hand that was reaching out to take the Bible. He paused for a moment and looked up again, with no emotion in his eyes.
Looking at Dennis's clear blue eyes, Ruan Ruan's heart tightened.
He saw it.
He realized that she had lied.
"teacher……"
"Saint."
Dennis interrupted Ruan Ruan, closed the Bible, and handed it to her: "Let's start today's study."
For the entire afternoon, Dennis's attitude towards Ruan Ruan seemed no different from usual.
But Ruan Ruan noticed that Dennis was deliberately avoiding her.
Bang
"Teacher, I messed up again. Let's do it again."
In the moonlit church, Ruan Ruan's forehead was wet with sweat and her arms were shaking.
Dennis didn't ask her what happened or why she wasn't feeling up, as he usually did.
He didn't ask anything, he just taught over and over again patiently.
