"Princess, are you okay?"
Leo took the teacup from her hand with concern, then picked up the handkerchief and wanted to help her wipe her hands, but she dodged him.
“It’s okay.” Shen Zhiyi waved his hand, “The tea is too hot.”
She lowered her eyelashes, her voice a little unsteady, "You go back first, I'll go to the auction."
Leo's chest heaved, his eyes sparkling with joy, and he immediately stood up, "Okay!"
"When the time comes, I'll come and pick up the princess!"
He turned and walked out of the hall.
After closing the door, I vaguely heard some strange noises coming from inside.
It sounded like Shen Zhiyi’s crying.
He frowned and was stunned for a moment, then shook his head.
Did you hear it wrong?
How could a princess cry?
Leo thought of the auction two days later, and his face became happy again. He gripped the hilt of his sword tightly and strode away.
…
Two days later, the Ice Crystal City Auction.
Samuel and Leo walked behind Shen Zhiyi, one on the left and one on the right.
Leo glanced Samuel up and down and said sarcastically, "This is a priceless auction, what are you doing here?"
"Do you have money?"
The Snake Clan controls the mineral veins and is one of the richest clans in the empire.
But Samus had been expelled long ago.
How dare a penniless man follow the princess to the auction?
Didn't he think he was embarrassed enough?
Samus' eyes flashed with coldness, but he curled his lips and said, "The princess needs me, so of course I have to follow her every step of the way."
"Unlike you, who is persistent and annoying."
Leo: ...
He gripped the hilt of his sword, lowered his voice, and said angrily, "You speak as if the princess has touched you."
"Did she kiss you?"
"Have I established a real relationship with you?"
He looked at Samus's gradually darkening face and laughed out loud, "That's it, and you still dare to say that the princess needs you."
If there are two dark clouds over their heads.
Leo is now cloudy to overcast and then to sunny.
As for Samus, dark clouds were hanging over his head, and lightning and thunder were flashing.
He stared at the back of Shen Zhiyi’s head and couldn’t help thinking.
yes.
Why didn't she kiss him?
He didn't dare expect her to relieve his desire.
Because when he faced her, those unfamiliar flames were too intense and terrifying, and he couldn't even face them... He could only suppress them tightly.
But why, not even a kiss...
Samus concealed the darkness in his eyes and slowly tightened the big hand hanging by his side.
They took their seats at the auction.
Shen Zhiyi turned her head, met Samuel’s sad gaze, and raised her eyebrows.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Samuel said in a sullen tone and turned his head away.
Shen Zhiyi's eyebrows moved slightly, and just as he was about to say something, the sound of the auction starting came from the stage.
The first item to be auctioned was the Ice Feather Arrow that she had been longing for.
She glanced at Samus.
Snakes have excellent eyesight and concentration.
Especially for a black snake like him who is good at hiding his breath, the most suitable weapon is probably the bow and arrow.
Ice Feather Arrows are not easily detected by the enemy.
The attack power will increase as the ability improves, with no upper limit.
She wanted to take a picture of the Ice Feather Arrow and give it to him as a gift.
This way, he should be happier?
Shen Zhiyi withdrew his thoughts and looked at the stage intently.
Samus lowered his eyelashes.
It was as if I saw my own snake tail, curled up in the darkness and no one cared about it.
Small, dark...
Vilga sensed his low mood, shook the space, and brought darkness with him.
He paused time and space.
In the darkness where only Samuel could see and hear, he asked him, "My Lord, are you worried about the auction?"
“Don’t feel inferior!”
"The Snake Clan's mineral veins depend on your bloodline for survival!"
"As long as you awaken the ancient bloodline, you can open the most ancient inheritance, where the wealth is inexhaustible."
"When the time comes, the mineral vein will be wherever you are."
"The wealth I'm guarding for you may not be as valuable as a mineral vein, but it's more than enough to buy out the entire auction."
"Do you want it?" He bowed and said, "I can get it for you."
Samuel shook his head.
He was just a lowly snake husband. If he took out so many crystal coins at this time, it would definitely arouse suspicion.
