Chapter 276 Talking to a Fool
Jiang Xi pretended that the three uninvited guests at the table did not exist.
But then she discovered something else.
"Where are Nafiel, Nakan, Duans, Muling, and Yiyuexi?"
There were only Lu Liufeng and Huo Lun at the table.
On the contrary, the number of ex-husbands was greater.
Hollen: "They went to the dueling arena."
The Giantwood Forest also has a custom of dueling, but because the female beastmen live a prosperous life, they have gradually become less enthusiastic about violent duels.
The dueling arena gradually transformed into a form of entertainment for the masses.
Similar to the underground fighting arena in the Holy City, there are fighting matches every day for everyone to watch and bet on.
But the arena still welcomes orcs to come up and duel.
After all, professional duels and real duels are only as interesting if the real one is real.
Jiang Xi was stunned for a moment.
"The dueling arena? What are they going to the dueling arena for?"
Lu Liufeng glanced at Camus, Hecia, and Alvino, then lowered his voice.
"In the morning, Duans discovered Nafel..."
He didn't finish speaking because Jiang Xi understood instantly.
She quickly raised her hand to cover his mouth, then glanced awkwardly at the trio of ex-husbands.
Fortunately, although the three of them looked puzzled, they probably didn't know what had happened.
A suspicious blush rose on Jiang Xi's snow-white face.
This is really bad.
Camus has been sitting here all morning.
Lu Liufeng and Huo Lun stopped him from entering the house, so he could only sit there and wait.
He had been getting impatient, but when he saw the female protagonist emerge with messy hair and a dazed expression, his mood inexplicably calmed down.
Seeing Lu Liufeng help her wash her face and comb her hair, she felt even more itchy to do the same.
Yesterday, Yang told him everything, including many things about the Holy City.
However, he felt that many of these were just his own one-sided guesses, not the hidden truth.
He didn't believe he would dissolve his marriage with her.
Unless it's due to some emergency, such as when his father died and he had to return to succeed the Giant Wood King, etc...
Camus raised his hand and gestured forward.
Orc servants filed in, carrying all sorts of exquisite food, and placed it on the long table.
In no time, the table was filled with food.
Hollen was coming out of the kitchen with food, but there was nowhere to put it.
Jiang Xi looked at the large meat dishes on the table, including beef and mutton, and was already starting to feel tired of them.
She reached out to take the soy milk from Hollen's hand, and couldn't help but look at the Giant Wood King.
"I'll go there this afternoon; I need to treat Haisia this morning."
Camille lazily rested his chin on his hand, looking over with his emerald green eyes.
"I know."
Jiang Xi then pointed to the table full of food.
"In addition, we will cook our own food; the royal court will not cook for us."
Lu Liufeng moved a corner of the table closer to the female master so that Huo Lun could put breakfast on the table.
Camus glanced at it, his brow furrowing slightly.
"Is this all they feed you every day?"
The disdain in her tone was unmistakable.
Jiang Xi: "..."
Corn tortillas, soy milk, mashed carrots and potatoes, boiled beef, and boiled mutton with dipping sauce.
How wonderful!
She rolled her eyes at Camus.
"Lu Liufeng's cooking is much tastier than yours!"
Camus was taken aback when she rolled her eyes at him, then burst out laughing.
"Okay, whatever you like."
His voice carried a hint of doting affection, as if he were speaking to a willful little mistress.
Jiang Xi felt like she had punched cotton and then been licked.
She gave her a disgusting look.
Camus didn't receive the message. He tapped his wine glass, and the orc waiting behind him quickly stepped forward and poured the clear wine into the glass.
Jiang Xi: "Can you come back to your place to eat?"
Camus: "If you don't like it, I'll have them take it down."
As he spoke, he raised his hand, and the orc removed all the dishes from the table.
Alvino was casually slicing and eating the roasted meat when he suddenly found himself without a place to cut, so he turned his gaze to the few plates of food in the corner in front of Jiang Xi.
Haisia suddenly spoke up at this moment.
"I heard you wanted to eat fish and shrimp the other day?"
"I had some brought over."
As soon as he finished speaking, the sea creatures came out carrying several large jars filled with fish and shrimp. The fish and shrimp were jumping and splashing around in the jars, making water fly everywhere.
Jiang Xi found the scene utterly ridiculous.
She raised her hand to cover her face.
Lu Liufeng: "Please eat, Mistress. Ignore them."
Hollen also picked up a tortilla and started eating.
"Mistress, let's eat."
Jiang Xi grunted in response. She couldn't be chased away, and her words were incomprehensible to her, so she could only eat.
After we finish eating, we still need to go to the dueling arena to find Duans and Nafiel.
Hopefully, this won't escalate too much.
Then, Camus's voice rang out again.
"Bring it here so I can try it."
The orc behind him walked over and took a portion of the breakfast in front of Jiang Xi.
Jiang Xi quickly raised her hand to protect herself and looked at Camus.
"There's no breakfast for you! Breakfast in our family is served in fixed quantities per person."
It's not that she's stingy, it's that she doesn't want to give it to him.
This person is like someone who can't understand human speech.
Camus rested his chin on his hand, nodded, and recalled the orcs without persisting.
But then he looked at Lu Liufeng, his voice high and mighty.
"Lu Liufeng, right? From now on, I will come to eat with the female master every day, so please cook for me more often."
Jiang Xi was instantly displeased upon hearing his tone.
Before Lu Liufeng could speak, she coldly ordered him to leave.
You are not welcome here!
"Lu Liufeng has no obligation to cook for you!"
"Also, Yang should have made it very clear to you that apart from our marriage contract, we have no relationship whatsoever. We are just two complete strangers. This is just a temporary transaction of getting money for medical treatment. After the treatment is over, we will leave. So please stop doing these useless things. It will only cause us trouble."
Camus rested his chin on his hand, his blue eyes thoughtful.
"What have I done to you that makes you hate me so much, and even want to break off our engagement?"
"If I have done anything wrong, I will make it up to you in the days to come."
Jiang Xi's dark eyes widened.
She really felt like she was going to vomit blood.
"Can't you understand human language?!"
"There was no love between us, the marriage contract was just a mistake! Now that the mistake has been corrected, you're happy, and I'm happy too. Let's not dwell on the past anymore!"
Camus: "But you're not happy. You're angry, upset. Is it because of something that happened between us?"
Jiang Xi: "..."
She was truly at her wit's end.
Lu Liufeng tugged at her.
“Mistress, there’s no need to say so much to him. We’ll leave once he’s healed.”
Jiang Xi sat down and nodded firmly.
She needs to speed up the healing process for the Giant Tree King!
Hysia was also a little confused by Camus and couldn't help but speak to him.
“Camille, you really didn’t like it before…”
Before he could finish speaking, Camus interrupted him.
"Is it any of your business to interfere in my affairs with the female master?"
He chuckled softly, his emerald green eyes filled with indifference.
"You are the prince of the sea tribe, right? The Giant Tree Forest is not suitable for the sea tribe to live in. After you are healed, you should leave as soon as possible."
