"Jiang Zhixian, please pay attention to the occasion!" Shen Qiao didn't understand, but she had an intuition that this bitch didn't have anything nice to say.
Uncle Jiang wanted to tease him a few more words, but a signal suddenly appeared on the virtual screen in front of him.
The other party took the initiative to reveal his identity and claimed that he was Qin Chengxu, the eldest prince of the empire.
Jiang Zhixian frowned, put his legs down from the armrest, and looked serious.
"Qin Chengxu?"
"Do I need to call him Earl of Leicester?" Shen quietly frowned, feeling that the turn of events was a bit unexpected.
At this time, if Lester is refused to come forward, the other party may attack them in the name of rescuing the earl. By then the good guy will become him, and Jiang Zhixian will become the kidnapper.
But if Lester were to come forward in person, Shen Qingqing would be a little worried. After all, Lester could easily be deceived at a glance.
As for Qin Chengxu, he didn't have many dealings with her. The other party probably didn't have a deep impression of her, but it was impossible to say he didn't know her at all.
After all, before Shen Sheng died, she was a popular contestant among the princesses.
"Go and call him over." Jiang Zhixian wiped his face, which was probably the same thing that Shen Qingqi was worried about.
Qin Chengxu first sent interstellar pirates, intending to rob Leicester of all the weapons with nothing. Unexpectedly, Jiang Zhixian boarded the starship from the desert star and brought five warships behind him, disrupting the situation. Qin Chengxu’s plan.
Now, Qin Chengxu actually came forward in person, and he probably didn't have good intentions.
After a while, Lester changed his clothes again, walked to the command room with a tired face, and moved next to Jiang Zhixian sadly.
"You're looking for me?"
"The eldest prince of the empire, your new client wants to talk to you." Jiang Zhixian crossed his arms and sneered.
Lester's eyes lit up instantly, as if he saw the savior, and shouted: "He must be here to save me!"
Good guy, he is indeed a fool who was betrayed and helped count the money.
Jiang Zhixian was even more desperate.
Fortunately, the old butler next to him was not stupid, and quickly asked Lester to whisper, finally getting the earl to calm down.
He swallowed his saliva and cautiously approached Jiang Zhixian, "Were those robbers just now really done by Qin Chengxu?"
"How about you go back and ask your cousin?" Jiang Zhixian continued to laugh.
Lester looked embarrassed, feeling his ridicule and contempt, and his eyes were almost red with anger.
"I just wanted to make money from him, but he actually wanted my life!"
"Okay, okay. Anyway, he wants to be a good person now. Just pretend to be more like him for a while." Jiang Zhixian said, stood up and gave up his position to Lester.
Lester sat on it without any confidence, adjusted his breathing several times, and then answered the other party's communication request.
"We meet again, Earl of Leicester." Qin Chengxu's bust appeared on the virtual screen, smiling very "kindly".
Lester responded to him with the same courtesy.
"Yes, His Highness the First Prince."
"It seems that you have a little trouble." Qin Chengxu's fox tail wagged.
Lester looked calm on the surface, but his legs were actually starting to shake.
"Yes, I met a group of interstellar pirates."
"It doesn't matter. My starship has plenty of gunfire and has just been loaded. Count Leicester, I am happy to help my friend."
"That's really troublesome for you, His Royal Highness."
"No trouble."
The two sides reached a friendly meeting and showed formal smiles to each other.
Soon, three main artillery shells were fired continuously from the direction of Qin Chengxu, completely destroying the severely damaged Cyclops battleship with a crushing force.
Such a straightforward action was like destroying evidence, leaving no room for error.
Lester witnessed the whole process and was so shocked that he could not speak. If those robbers were really Qin Chengxu's people, didn't he just kill one of his own people?
What a cruel man.
After the enemy warship was destroyed, Qin Chengxu's expression became even more "hypocritical".
He sailed his battleship near Leicester and looked worried.
"Earl Leicester, your starship seems to be seriously damaged. It is too dangerous. As a friend, I must be responsible for your safety. I have sent someone to pick you up. I hope we can have lunch together in the evening."
At this time, Lester's face turned completely pale.
He covered his face with his hands, faced Jiang Zhixian, and mouthed: "I don't want to go."
Jiang Zhixian also replied, "No, you want to."
Lester looked desperate. He huddled in his chair and made a final struggle. "No, Your Highness, let's go to the agreed place to meet."
"But Earl Leicester, aren't the arms I want on your starship? As the partner you are about to sign, you can rest assured that I will send people to safely escort the goods to the B-66 star. Don't you trust me?"
me?"
With this hat on, Lester has to agree even if he doesn't agree.
This is the eldest prince of the empire, the partner he personally promised. When he thinks of the current situation, Lester wants to slap himself. He must be out of his mind to do business with such a dangerous person.
"Promise him." Jiang Zhixian saw the excitement and didn't mind the matter, and muttered something in Lester's mind with his mental power.
Lester trembled and nodded sadly, "Then thank you, Your Highness, the First Prince."
After the communication was hung up, Lester was completely depressed.
He sat in his chair and was about to cry, "Why did you just tell me that he was a bad person?"
If he didn't know anything, he would be so scared.
"Don't worry, I won't let you die." Jiang Zhixian was rarely kind and comforted: "I will pretend to be your subordinate in a while and go to Qin Chengxu's starship with you. As long as I am here, no one can kill you!
"
With Jiang Zhixian's assurance, Lester's expression softened a bit, "Are you serious?"
"When have I ever lied to anyone?"
Jiang Zhixian spoke so shamelessly that Shen Qiao rolled her eyes in her heart.
Lester, who was comforted, sniffed and muttered, "Okay then."
"What about me?" Shen quietly interjected.
Jiang Zhixian glanced at her in surprise, probably not expecting that Shen Qingqiu didn't just sit back and watch.
"Have Qin Chengxu seen you?" Jiang Zhixian asked.
Shen nodded quietly. "I've met a few times, but I'm not familiar with him."
"Then you will enter the stage as Lester's female companion." Jiang Zhixian touched his chin, his eyes a little deep.
The combination of a young lady who has lost power and a count from the Imolo clan seems to be a good match.
Shen quietly looked at Lester and frowned in disgust, but said nothing.
"Can."
Lester, on the other hand, gave Shen Qingqi a very frightened look.
"Can I say no?"
"???" Shen Qingqing, who was rejected, widened her eyes, as if she didn't expect that this silly Baitian would dare to dislike herself.
Jiang Zhixian smiled happily, looking like he was watching a good show.
"Why?"
"I still like my cousin-in-law very much..." Lester lowered his head shyly. "I can't betray my feelings for her."
