When Luo Ran said these words, everyone was shocked and lost their lines.
Luo Ran, the famous perfect secretary of the empire, is capable, smart, rational, and even sensible as if he has no feelings. Everything is only in the interest of Lucas, and no one can imagine his temptation.
Luo Ran's character is naturally gentle, but it is so gentle and alienating, even cold.
Now he actually said... like Lucas
"No, it's impossible!" Lilia looked at the man with clear facial features in front of her, and felt that her worldview was shattered.
"I really like him." Loran paused and said solemnly, "I have to say it now, I hope Your Highness will be considerate."
Lilia: "..."
Lucas: "… "
Zhou Mingkai tried his best to hold back his laughter.
Zhou Mingkai, who is galloping in the love scene, can see at a glance what Luo Ran is doing without touching a leaf in the thousands of flowers.
Lucas turned his head suspiciously to look at Zhou Mingkai, who was shrunken and trembling.
At this moment, Zhou Mingkai suddenly felt blessed.
For the happiness of the rest of his brother's life! For the marshal and his wife to live a good life with their grandson! For the expectations of millions of people in the empire! For the excellent next generation of the Empire!
With the entrustment of thousands of people—
"Oh, my God." Zhou Mingkai squeezed out a few tears, clenched his fist and beat his chest, "What a beautiful love! What a distressing secret love! Secretary Luo has worked hard...!"
Lucas didn't know what he was thinking at the moment, turned around and left with a blank face.
He was still that fierce general with strong bones, and he was unmoved by his emotions.
However, when he stepped over the steps of the balcony, he suddenly stepped on the air, and the whole person staggered and almost fell.
Zhou Mingkai: "..."
Zhou Mingkai looked up at the moon and pretended not to see it.
Lucas snorted coldly, stretched out his foot with a terrifying expression and stepped on the stairs, and then strode away.
Zhou Mingkai immediately followed.
The two people on the balcony obviously didn't notice the movement here, Lilia was looking at Luo Ran with disbelief.
"You, you... Believe it or not, I'll tell everyone!"
"If your Highness wants to say it, just say it, I can't help it." Luo Ran lowered her eyes with a pitiful look.
To be honest, Luo Ran dared to say that, and naturally she was not afraid of the princess shaking her arms out.
Originally, the princess acted arrogantly and willfully, and her image of being brainless was deeply ingrained, and her words did not have much credibility.
Even if it is true, those who believe are also cp fans, and those who don't believe it will think that this is the output of cp, and everyone should be happy.
"Then...then you like the general, I don't mind! Anyway, he doesn't like you anyway, I can snatch you over!"
Luo Ran: "..."
Luo Ran was once again curious about how the Luo Bing royal family raised the princess, and it was quite normal for the other princes in charge of Luo Bing.
But Luo Ran has a second hand.
"His Royal Highness, do you really want to rob the admiral?" Luo Ran raised an eyebrow.
"what… ?"
Lilia stared, "You, aren't you a crush? Are you and the admiral... together?"
Luo Ran didn't speak, didn't deny or nod, but Lilia felt that such an attitude was the default.
Isn't it...
"Wuuuu you shameless!!"
Lilia ran away crying.
What did she use to steal someone from Lucas...! That was the general who made her country a vassal!
Looking at the back of Lilia leaving in anger, Luo Ran breathed a sigh of relief.
The princess should no longer want anyone from the empire.
After solving the trouble, Luo Ran returned to the banquet hall again. After searching everywhere, Lucas couldn't be found. Just as he was about to ask someone, he came across the protagonist and birthday star of this banquet, the first prince Zhou Mingyu.
"What a coincidence." Zhou Mingyu said with a smile: "Did Secretary Luo encounter any difficulties?"
"Your Highness." Luo Ran bowed respectfully, and then asked, "Does Your Highness know where the Admiral is?"
Zhou Mingyu paused and said, "Sorry, I didn't see him."
"Okay..." Luo Ran thought, did she go upstairs with Zhou Mingkai to drink and shoot in the small private room
Then Zhou Mingyu joked: "There are so many Yingying and Yanyan here. Secretary Luo may be more comfortable if he doesn't follow him."
Luo Ran just smiled.
"Since we met, Secretary Luo wants to dance with me?" Zhou Mingyu pointed to the dance floor.
Luo Ran remembered that Zhou Mingyu had invited him to be a dance partner before, but now that he was invited again, Luo Ran was also a little surprised.
This Highness does not lack dance partners, so why do you want to invite him
"It's a bit embarrassing to say." Zhou Mingyu shook his head and said jokingly: "Maybe it's because I'm still single at this age, so the family always tries their best to get me in contact with the excellent Omega and Beta, and at this kind of banquet , it has become a fragrant piece of meat, surrounded by wolves."
Lorraine understood.
Zhou Mingyu is the eldest prince and the person most likely to inherit the throne. It is a supreme honor to be a princess for him now, and a queen in the future.
I think that many people must be desperately rushing to be Zhou Mingyu as a dance partner.
Zhou Mingyu also confirmed Luo Ran's conjecture, but said helplessly: "That's why I invited Secretary Luo to be my dance partner. You are the general's secretary, and the rest of you don't dare to say anything. It's a pity... You refused mercilessly, I Quite sad."
"I'm sorry..." Luo Ran smiled, "I didn't know... Your Highness is in such trouble."
"I know now." Zhou Mingyu stretched out his hand to Luo Ran, bowed slightly, and said politely, "This handsome gentleman, can I invite you to dance with me?"
Luo Ran smiled and put her hand up.
When Zhou Mingyu said this, he couldn't refuse. After all, Lucas didn't need his help now, so he went to the dance floor with Zhou Mingyu.
Soft lighting and soft music.
"Secretary Luo dances very well." Zhou Mingyu lightly hugged Luo Ran's waist and smiled: "It's a pity that I don't show much."
Luo Ran lowered her eyes and said, "Excessive reputation."
"Sometimes I can't help but envy the admiral. With a secretary like you, I don't know how much work has eased, and my daily life will be very happy."
Luo Ran said: "His Royal Highness's secretary is a professional secretary who graduated from the Royal Academy, and he must be much better than me."
"How could that be?" Zhou Mingyu smiled and shook his head. "Back then, Shuangye and you lost to you in the competition for the position of general secretary. Even now, she admires you, and she will tell me about it from time to time."
Luo Ran was stunned.
"That year..." Luo Ran confirmed, "When was General Lucas recruiting a secretary?"
"Yeah...?" Zhou Mingyu was a little surprised when he saw that Luo Ran didn't know, "You didn't know that Shuangye was competing with you back then? Not only Shuangye, but several ordinary civilians from the royal family."
Luo Ran was silent for a moment, then brought the topic to the past with a smile, "I forgot what happened so many years ago."
Luo Ran has some doubts in her heart.
At that time, he was directly pulled to the final selection during the first-tier audition, and therefore seldom contacted other applicants.
Since there are several from the Royal Academy, why is he in the end...
Zhou Mingyu's next words also planned Luo Ran's thoughts.
"But Shuangye will resign in a few days."
"What's wrong?"
"She's getting married and plans to focus on the family. So... I want to ask you for help again." Zhou Mingyu sighed and said, "The new secretary is not skilled in many things. For the sake of the smooth operation of the empire, you can come here. teach him?"
"It doesn't take much of your time."
Luo Ran said neither humble nor arrogant: "I try my best, but the military and trade here are busy."
At the banquet, the gongs and chips alternated, and the two chatted while dancing.
…
Upstairs, private room.
"He actually dared to lie to me!" Lucas patted the table and said, "Luo Ran is quite courageous, huh, for many years? So this has lied to me for several years!"
"… "
Zhou Mingkai shook his hand, and the dart deviates from the bullseye hanging on the wall.
Zhou Mingkai was stunned and said: "What the admiral cares about is... Did he lie to you?"
Zhou Mingkai sat on the table and opened a bottle of wine with his legs crossed.
Lucas paced back and forth in place with his hands behind his back.
Zhou Mingkai thought to himself, if other people said they liked Lucas in the past, Lucas' reaction would be disgust, anger and boredom. A noble Omega gave Lucas a rose to confess at the banquet, but Lucas turned out to be disgusted, angry and bored. Si sneered and asked the guard to kick the person out, and the real person threw the rose out of the hotel door together with the rose.
As a result, now... I never thought that Lucas, who was emotionally involved, would be confused here
Zhou Mingkai didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
moment.
Lucas stopped and said, "It's actually quite reasonable."
"what… ?"
Lucas said: "After all, he has been by my side for so many years, getting along day and night, isn't it reasonable to like him?"
Lucas took it for granted, and his tone revealed satisfaction.
"After all, there is no better Alpha than me."
"The other Alphas and Omegas are jagged junk, and none of them look good."
"It's really hard to stay by my side and stay calm."
Zhou Mingkai: "..."
Lucas frowned and said, "Then how can I refuse him? What if he gets angry and strikes."
Zhou Mingkai: "Why refuse??"
Lucas: "My dignified admiral will talk about love, mistakes, I only fight wars."
Zhou Mingkai: "..."
At this moment, Zhou Mingkai once again blessed his heart, carrying the hope of the entire empire, he beat his heart again and said, "Secretary Luo has not let you notice anything for so many years, and secondly, it has not affected your work. Isn't it good to continue like this?"
Zhou Mingkai said frantically: "The secretary is too pitiful! Don't refuse others. Secretary Luo is so arrogant and cold. You will hurt him if you say so rashly."
Hiss, trouble.
Lucas scratched the back of his head, thinking that his no-place charm was too troublesome.
His goofy secretary was in trouble too.
Just as he was about to say something, someone knocked on the door.
He is Zhou Mingkai's good brother, a slaughtering boy who dyed his hair fiery red.
"Brother Kai!" As soon as the boy saw Zhou Mingkai, he said, "Your sister-in-law..."
Then the young man saw Lucas, who had always been overpowering behind Zhou Mingkai, shrank a little, and swallowed the words abruptly.
"What?" Zhou Mingkai frowned.
"Just, Secretary Luo just danced with the eldest prince."
"Ah?" Although Zhou Mingkai was a little surprised, he immediately frowned and said, "Is this worth running up and saying?"
"No, no, after Secretary Luo danced with the eldest prince, he received Xie Ancheng's stubborn invitation. He agreed and is now dancing with him! Brother, didn't you let me watch Xie Ancheng's stubbornness!"
Lucas said with a gloomy expression: "Who is Xie Ancheng?"
"Damn it." Zhou Mingkai's face also became worse, "Xie Ancheng is the only son of Duke Xie. Relying on the fact that his family is a hereditary hero, he buys good-looking Betas and Omegas everywhere. My competitors are here!"
Lucas's expression darkened.
Zhou Mingkai continued: "But I'm just making friends, you love me. That's different. The image he created to the outside world is to be upright and sunny, and then he drugged people behind the scenes when others weren't paying attention, and played yin! If you have the ability, you can suppress all these bad things. If he didn't dare to attack my own sister before, I still don't know!"
Lucas didn't speak, and strode out of the private room downstairs.
…
Luo Ran is dancing with Xie Ancheng on the dance floor. Xie Ancheng has gentle facial features and smiles: "It's rare that Secretary Luo is willing to play here today."
Xie Ancheng was about to say something, but only felt his legs soften, and he was almost breathless under the pressure of the sudden pheromone.
Xie Ancheng was surprised.
He is an Alpha with good mental strength, how can he be so crushed that he can't move...
"Admiral...?" Luo Ran looked behind Xie Ancheng in surprise.
Lucas grabbed Luo Ran's wrist directly, pulled the person behind him rudely, and dragged him out of the banquet hall.
Xie Ancheng looked pale as Luo Ran was pulled away.
It was Lucas...
"Admiral..." Luo Ran was dragged onto the aircraft and looked at Lucas who was suddenly angry in front of him with some doubts.
"Is it fun?" Lucas said coldly, "It's the eldest prince and the son of that duke, very fun?"
"..." Luo Ran looked at Lucas blankly.
"What about you!"
Luo Ran felt that Lucas was like a lion screaming when his territory was invaded at the moment, so he explained helplessly: "The first prince invited me to dance, and I couldn't refuse. And the first prince and the second prince have been trying their best to win you over, I am tonight. It is rare to have danced with him. I am worried that some people will make unnecessary guesses, thinking that you will only accept Xie Ancheng's invitation if you have a decision. As we all know, Xie Ancheng's family are all the henchmen and supporters of the second prince."
Lucas sneered, "Secretary Luo is quite thoughtful."
Luo Ran was about to say something, but the next moment, her whole body suddenly softened and she fell uncontrollably.
Lucas caught it subconsciously, and Luo Ran crashed into Lucas's arms like this, making him dizzy.
Lucas' first reaction was, "Fuck, is this little bastard planning to seduce?" !
Then I remembered Zhou Mingkai's description of Xie Ancheng's actions - secretly drugging.
…
Lucas' eyes dimmed.
Xie Ancheng he... don't die, right
