After hesitating for a while, Bucky spoke frankly, "Ruth asked me to come."
"Ruth?" Richard's eyes flashed, slightly confused. Listening to Bucky's name, Ruth is obviously a woman's name, but he hasn't provoked any women since he came to White Rock Tower Academy. If I really care, the one I have communicated with seems to be... the girl in the corridor...
However, it was more than ten days ago that I had contact with the other party. If the other party really retaliates against me as he said before, would it be too late now, right
As Richard was thinking about it, Bucky had already started telling him, "Ruth lives with you on the second floor of the dormitory building."
Well, the suspicion was confirmed. Richard thought to himself.
"I'm Ruth's fiancé. I live on the first floor." Bucky continued.
"Huh?" When Richard heard this, he looked directly at Bucky and his eyes flashed: "Since you are Ruth's fiancé and you still live on the first floor, do you need to wait until today to trouble me? In other words, You live on the first floor, why have I never seen you?" Based on Bucky's body shape, Richard believed that he would be able to easily identify him as soon as he appeared.
Bucky explained: "Well... I went home. I just returned to the academy yesterday, so we haven't met before, so naturally we won't cause trouble for you."
Richard's eyes flashed, and he understood a little, and said: "So, as soon as you came back, your fiancée, Ruth, came to you and asked you to think of a way to teach me a lesson?"
"Actually..." Bucky hesitated and said, "Actually, it's not a lesson. Ruth just asked me to show my strength to let you know how powerful I am, and just understand that she is not easy to mess with..."
"But you didn't complete the task." Richard said sharply.
Bucky's expression froze, his lips opened and closed, and he defended in a strong voice: "Although... I didn't complete the task, but... I tried my best. So... this is enough."
"Is this enough? Are you sure?" Richard couldn't help but be stunned.
"Okay. Okay, I've said everything I need to say. If nothing happens, I'll leave first." Bucky said, turned around and left without any hesitation.
Richard stared at Bucky's back and couldn't help but think: This fiancé seems to be a bit of a cheat. Wasn't it picked up on the roadside
Just as he was thinking this, Richard saw Bucky suddenly turning around and walking back, his eyes a little fiery.
Is this a discovery of conscience, and you feel that you must defend your dignity as your fiancé, and are you ready to take action with all your strength and teach yourself a lesson
As Richard was thinking about it, he saw Bucky turning around and walking back in front of him. He asked with a bit of mystery and seriousness: "By the way, does Ruth like you?"
"Huh?" Richard raised his eyebrows, looked at Bucky and couldn't help asking, "Do you think this is possible?"
"Yes!" Bucky nodded, extremely sure, and then began to analyze in a decent manner, "You don't know Ruth, but I know her very well. She has the kind of overbearing and spoiled princess temperament. From childhood to adulthood, everyone It's all following her. And you - since she wants me to show you my strength, you must have offended her. Maybe it was your special way of treating her that made her heart rippling, turning from disgust to like… "
As Richard listened to Bucky's words, something seemed more and more wrong. He looked directly at him and asked for confirmation, "You are his fiancé, right?"
"Yes." Bucky nodded, and then... continued his analysis, "I think she might really like you, but she didn't notice it herself, and you didn't notice it either. So, I think you two might as well find someone Let’s have a good chat and try to develop something. When the time comes…”
Richard asked again to confirm: "Are you really her fiancé?"
"Of course." Bucky said, "But don't mind my identity, just treat me as an insignificant person. After all, true love should ignore all obstacles, no matter how many fiancés Lucy has, We should move forward bravely.”
Richard: "..." Why do you think there is something in this
"Okay, okay, let me be honest with you." Bucky looked at Richard and confessed, "I am indeed Ruth's fiancé, but this really doesn't mean anything. For a fiancé like me, she has A full dozen—well, twelve, and that's not counting what she collected at school."
Richard looked at Bucky's strong body, and his eyes flashed. The scene of Ruth's body covered with big men flashed through his mind: Ruth looked frail. Could it be that her needs in some aspects were far beyond those of ordinary people? …
Bucky interrupted Richard's thinking and continued with a bit of sadness and anger: "Actually, he is her fiancé, but he is actually just her servant. Many people lent her too much money and could not pay it back, so I can only use my body as collateral.
As for me, it was even worse. When I was a child, my father, a pauper king, wanted to borrow money from Ruth's father, a rich king, and couldn't find a suitable collateral, so he mortgaged me on the spot. To this day There is no redemption.
So I and the rest of us became Ruth's nominal fiancé. The reason why this title was given was because Ruth's father, the rich king, felt that Ruth had been extremely unruly since she was a child and would be difficult to marry. If that happened, and Ruth wanted to marry, all of us would line up for her to choose—and whoever she picked would be the unlucky one. "
Richard: "..."
After a moment of silence, Richard let out a breath, looked at Bucky and asked, "What is her identity? Is she so rich?"
"Yes." Bucky nodded, "Yes, she is rich, her father is rich, her relatives are rich - her whole family is rich! The country she is in is a wizarding country on the east coast very close to the White Stone Tower. She may not be strong, but she has a deep foundation. According to rumors, the country she is in is the legacy of a powerful empire long ago.
Back then, the empire unified the entire east coast and plundered a lot of wealth, all of which was buried underground. Therefore, in the territory of his country, if you dig casually, you can dig out several boxes, and the boxes are full of treasures. As a result, her country lacks everything except money. "
Bucky sighed: "Anyway, Ruth is really rich. Even if she spends all her money, she can go home and dig a few boxes and she will be rich again. So, if you have the ability, let her really If you fall in love with you and treat you as your lover or fiancé, well, the real thing, then you’ll be in luck.”
"By the way, why don't you do it yourself?" Richard looked at Bucky, "You can also find ways to please her, right? If you make her like it, the debt can be written off, right?"
"Um, this... that..." Bucky suddenly faltered, his face reddened and a little shy, "This... there is a reason, although I know there are many benefits to letting Ruth like me. But the problem is that I don't like her. Ah, she is too unruly and arrogant. And... I already have someone I like, so I leave this matter to you."
Richard: "..." I couldn't help but wonder: Is this matter a bit too nonsensical
"Okay, I'll stop here. Ruth asked me to show you my strength. I've tried my best. The rest is none of my business. I'll leave first. As for you - come on!"
After saying that, Bucky waved his fist at Richard and walked away without looking back.
"Boom!"
The crisp copper bell rang at the end of get out of class at the right time.
