"That, that, Alyssa, I..." Su Cheng raised his head and said to Alyssa who was standing in front of him.
However, before Su Cheng finished speaking, Alyssa interrupted:
"Su Cheng, lower your head."
"Ah...yes..."
Su Cheng's head that had just been raised lowered again.
"I'm very disappointed, Su Cheng."
As soon as Alyssa finished speaking, Su Cheng's body couldn't help but tremble twice.
"When I just heard you praise me for having many shining points, I was obviously very happy and moved." Alyssa said with a cold face, folded her hands across her chest, and said to Su Cheng, "I was thinking just now, why not
I just forgive you. Although you were discussing my appearance just now, it is not something that cannot be forgiven."
"But as soon as I had the idea of ​​forgiving you, you immediately took back my feelings."
"Well...how to say...I'm sorry..." Su Cheng said as he buried his head lower, "But, I just said that your shining points are very charming. This sentence
I said it from the bottom of my heart..."
"So what? It's not as charming as my face anyway."
After saying that, Alyssa, who was holding her arms across her chest, hugged her arms tighter.
"Well……"
Su Cheng buried his head lower.
Looking at Su Cheng, who had his head lowered, like a child who had done something wrong, the stern expression on Alyssa's face could not help but soften a bit.
Then a naughty smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
In fact, Alyssa was not very angry from beginning to end.
Although Su Cheng and the middle-aged man had been discussing her face just now, to Alyssa, it was not a big deal. She only needed to hit them a few times and teach them a lesson.
Not only was Alyssa not very angry, but after recalling Su Cheng's compliments to her just now and his own words about how he liked her, she felt a little happy for some reason.
Now seeing Su Cheng burying his head low and looking sincerely repentant, Alyssa thought to herself:
Forget it, he seems to have realized his mistake, so forgive him. The time at the year-end dinner is precious, so don’t waste it on these places.
Alyssa had made up her mind and was about to say, "Forget it, I forgive you. If you don't do this next time, just raise your head."
"Oh, Alyssa, isn't it normal for men to discuss the appearance of the women around them? So don't blame this little brother too harshly."
A very inappropriate middle-aged male voice came over.
As soon as the middle-aged male voice finished speaking, Alyssa turned with a dark face and turned towards a certain middle-aged man who had been standing aside just now, watching her scolding Su Cheng with interest.
"I almost forgot about your existence... I was only focused on teaching Su Cheng, and I forgot about you..." Alyssa said to the middle-aged man with a dark face, "Long time no see, Mr. Albert
, you are still as lustful as before, so fond of peeking and discussing women, why are you leading Su Cheng astray when you are just there discussing women?"
"What do you mean, I'm a bad guy?" The middle-aged man suddenly showed an innocent expression, "This little brother suddenly came over to discuss it with me, okay?"
"Oh? Did you come together to discuss it yourself?"
Alyssa half-closed her eyes and turned her attention to Su Cheng again.
"Su Cheng, I see that you always look serious. Are you the same kind of person as Mr. Albert..."
Alyssa took two steps back as she spoke.
Seeing Alyssa take two steps back, Su Cheng immediately became anxious.
The reason why Su Cheng has always hidden his lustful nature is that he is afraid that the women with whom he has a very good relationship will dislike him after knowing that he is a lustful person.
So after seeing that he seemed to be rejected by Alyssa, Su Cheng began to rack his brains and began to think of countermeasures.
However, halfway through thinking, Su Cheng's expression suddenly froze, then he raised his head and said to Alyssa:
"Alyssa, what did you call this gentleman just now?"
"...You don't even know who this person is, and you are still chatting with him so enthusiastically..."
Alyssa sighed helplessly, then showed a weird smile and said:
"What a coincidence. Just when the two of us thought about looking for him, he appeared in front of us."
"Su Cheng, the person you have been chatting with just now is Albert Evans, the leader of the Rachel Knights."
"Hello~~ little brother." Albert waved to Su Cheng and showed a flirtatious smile, "It's funny. We don't know each other, but we can still chat for so long.
We were chatting so enthusiastically. But it’s not too late to introduce myself, so let me formally introduce myself now. I am the leader of the Knights of Rachel, the highest person in charge of the southern defense line of the empire, and the Knight of the Four Royal Guards, Albert Evans.”
"Are you... Albert Evans, the leader of the Knights of Rachel?"
Su Cheng looked in disbelief at the middle-aged man who was standing next to him and had just been discussing pretty girls with him in full swing.
"Su Cheng." Alyssa said with a helpless smile, "I have told you that Mr. Albert is a very individual person, so I want you to be mentally prepared before getting to know him."
"Mr. Albert is famous for being lecherous and frivolous. He is lecherous and frivolous to the point where the empire conceals his character in order to maintain the image of the knights. Therefore, the people of the empire only know Albert
He is very wise and good at fighting, but I don’t know that he is lustful and frivolous.”
"So lustful and frivolous that the empire had to help him hide it in order to maintain the image of the knight... How lustful and frivolous this is..." Su Cheng complained silently.
At this time, Alyssa said to Su Cheng:
"Su Cheng, don't be stunned. Please introduce yourself to Mr. Albert. You probably haven't introduced yourself to Mr. Albert, right?"
Alyssa's words awakened Su Cheng, who quickly said to Mr. Albert:
"I'm sorry that I didn't introduce myself to you until now! I am Su Cheng, Knight of Two Oaks."
"Su Cheng..." Albert muttered Su Cheng's name a few times, "I always feel that this name is a bit familiar..."
After Albert muttered Su Cheng's name several times, he showed an expression of sudden realization.
"Aha! I remembered it! You are Su Cheng who commanded the rescue battle of the Lund Kingdom not long ago, won a brilliant victory, and captured Allen Jones, right?"
"Well, yes, that's me."
"Ah, I heard your name when I was lying on the hospital bed a few days ago. Well! Not bad! I really hope that we in Britannia can produce a few more powerful new stars like you.
"
As Albert spoke, he laughed and patted Su Cheng on the shoulder.
"Come on! Su Cheng! Alyssa, you too! With your talents, it might only be a matter of time before you become the leader of the Knights! So you all should work on it! The future of the empire depends entirely on you.
These are the young people!"
"Yes! I will continue to work hard!" Su Cheng responded loudly to Albert.
At the same time, after listening to Albert's encouragement, Su Cheng couldn't help but feel a little warm in his heart, and his affection for Albert increased a lot.
Su Cheng thought to himself:
Although Mr. Albert is a bit weird and irregular, he surprisingly seems to be a very caring person for his younger generation and is easy to get along with...
Just when Su Cheng was sighing in his mind that Albert was a pretty good person, Alyssa frowned and said to Albert in a caring tone:
"Mr. Albert, are you feeling well?"
Alyssa's words awakened Su Cheng.
Su Cheng also quickly cast a look full of concern at Albert.
Albert had been lying in bed for nearly half a year due to the recurrence of an old injury. He was finally able to move freely a few days ago.
It was precisely because Albert had been lying in bed for half a year that Su Cheng was unable to recognize Albert. It was not until the last night of this year that Su Cheng finally recognized Albert.
"Hahahaha! Don't worry!"
As Albert spoke, he moved his arms to show that his body was strong.
"My health is very good! At most, it's just because I've been lying in bed for too long and my physical strength has declined a bit."
"Don't worry, I won't die like this yet. I won't die so easily until I help the empire completely eliminate the Luolin Empire and see more cute girls!"
When Su Cheng and Alyssa heard Albert talk about "helping the empire to completely eliminate the Luo Lin Empire," a hint of reverence flashed in their eyes.
But after hearing Albert's words "see more cute girls" immediately after, a lot of black lines appeared on his face.
I feel... I should be able to become very good friends with Albert... After all, we both seem to have the same hobbies...
Albert opened his mouth and was about to say something else
"Albert! You guy, you are hiding here! I have been looking for you for a long time!"
An old male voice that was very familiar to Su Cheng suddenly came over.
Su Cheng, Alyssa, and Albert all followed the voice and turned their attention.
The owner of this old male voice was none other than Jacob.
Jacob was walking towards where Su Cheng, Alyssa and Albert were with a smile on his face.
"Eh? Mr. Cheng, Miss Alyssa, why are you two with Albert?"
"Ah, Mr. Jacob, this is... it's a long story..." Su Cheng smiled bitterly, and then briefly described the encounter that he and Alyssa had just met with Albert.
Of course, Su Cheng would not be so stupid as to reveal that he and Albert discussed girls together. Su Cheng only briefly talked about how he and Alyssa met Albert.
After listening to Su Cheng's story, Jacob chuckled and said:
"Mr. Cheng, you and Albert have gotten to know each other. This is a good thing. Mr. Cheng, you should know some of the prominent figures in the empire."
"Hey, Jacob." Albert suddenly said at this moment, "Why do you, old guy, want to see me all of a sudden? Isn't it because the 'Knights' Reception' is about to start?"
Albert and Jacob seemed to know each other very well. They talked very casually. Not only did they not use any respect, they also always used some very rude words.
"Haha, you are really right." Jacob smiled, "The knight's cocktail party is about to begin. Are you ready to be drunk by me like last year?"
"Huh! I'm ready to take away last year's humiliation!" Albert said, looking directly at Jacob with eyes filled with strong fighting spirit.
"Oh, come on then, Albert." Jacob also looked directly at Albert with eyes full of fighting spirit.
At this moment, Jacob suddenly seemed to remember something, his eyes suddenly lit up, and then he turned his head and said to Su Cheng aside:
"By the way, Mr. Cheng, are you interested in attending the knight's cocktail party?"
"Knight...reception...what is that?"
Before Jacob could answer Su Cheng's question, Alyssa, who was standing next to Su Cheng, answered first:
"That's a really bad thing."
After saying that, Alyssa's expression changed.
Chapter completed!
