Joanna was inexplicably flustered. She always felt like she had done something wrong and was caught. She didn't dare to look Lance in the eyes, and whispered, "Your Highness, you are back..."
Lance walked over slowly, with a gentle smile on his face as always, as if the coldness in his eyes just now was just an illusion, he gently stroked Joanna's soft blond hair: "Yes, I heard you It’s here, so I came back early on purpose today.”
Joanna smiled guiltyly: "Yes, I miss you a little bit, but you haven't come to me all this time... so I'm here."
Lance showed an apologetic expression, kissed the back of Joanna's hand, his golden eyes were deep, "It was my mistake, I must apologize to you, but I still don't want to come here again, you are honorable, if you are a lowly slave It’s not good to get hurt.”
Joanna's smile suddenly stiffened, isn't Xie He a great hero of the Federation? Just because he was caught, he became a lowly slave. Although... She has been living in such a world, and everyone around her is like this, but she still feels unaccustomed, and feels sad for Xie He in her heart, and Xie He has never hurt her at all. But she didn't dare to refute Lance's words, she forced a smile and said, "I'm fine."
"It's okay this time, but it doesn't mean it will be okay next time." Lance smiled and said to her, "Let's go, I'll take you back."
Joanna nodded, cold sweat on her tense palms.
Lance quickly sent Joanna away, not even keeping her for dinner.
If it was normal, Lance would probably be willing to spend a little time coaxing Joanna. After all, the support of the Duke of Gallagher is very important, which is why he chose this marriage in the first place, but today...he suddenly didn't feel this way, Just want to go back sooner.
Recalling the scene just now, Lance narrowed his eyes slightly with a dangerous look in them.
The handsome and steady man, the petite and lovely girl, the two of them stood so close, as if they were made in heaven. When he saw all this, the violent emotions in his heart began to rage again, and he almost failed to control his emotions.
His people... how can they touch others? And Joanna, who thought she was a sensible and silly girl, now seems a bit disturbing.
Xie He still stayed in the garden. The coldness in Lance's eyes just now made him a little worried. Although it was only a few days, he could still feel the true kindness, so he didn't want Joanna to be angered because of him . When he saw Lance came back, he quickly suppressed the worry in his eyes, but Lance still saw him.
Lance's eyes turned cold, what is Xie He worried about? Worried about hurting Joanna? Did he fall in love with that girl after only meeting him a few times
How can this be? He is his slave! It will always belong to him alone!
He can't covet others, let alone be coveted by others!
[Ding, target Lance favorability +5, current favorability 60]
Lance walked up to Xie He and looked at him with a sneer: "Is it a surprise that I found out?"
"I don't know what you are talking about." Xie He said lightly. The Empire may have kind girls like Joanna, but most of them are demons like Lance, and one exception doesn't change his opinion of the Empire.
Lance looked at the calm and indifferent expression on Xie He's face, and remembered the gentle eyes he showed to Joanna... He raised his hand and turned the ring on his hand.
The metal ring sent out an electric current again, and Xie He immediately fell to the ground and twitched, because his body was weaker than before, Xie He couldn't hold on soon, with a painful expression on his face.
Lance didn't use it for a long time this time. He didn't want to kill Xie He just like this. He wanted to see the day when he chose to surrender. Killing him would not cause him pain at all.
He hugged Xie He to the rockery where he stayed the most on weekdays, turned his head to let him look outside, and whispered in his ear: "Do you want to leave? The sky you expected... is Not that it seems within reach...”
"But it's a pity, it's just a look. In fact, you will never be able to leave." Lance entered Xie He directly from behind, with a faint smile, "Remember everything I brought you, This is what you have now, throw away those ridiculous dreams, because there is no way to achieve it...”
Xie He bit his lip, and almost burst out an embarrassing sound from his throat.
From the beginning to the end, he didn't make any sound, just looked into the distance, until finally passed out.
… … … … … … …
[444: The host is big, Lance hasn't left today!]
[Xie He: Thank you for reminding baby:)]
Xie He opened his eyes and found that he was still in Lance's arms. He was about to break free instinctively, but was held down by Lance.
Lance smiled slightly and said, "Go out with me today."
As he said, he directly gave the clothes to Xie He, as if he was not worried at all that Xie He would not agree. Leaving here is a temptation that Xie He cannot resist. slaves out.
Sure enough, Xie He didn't resist this time, but put on his clothes neatly, and then looked at him coldly.
Lance smiled. To a certain extent, he still admired Xie He. He had seen the cruelest and darkest things in the world, but he had never seen anyone who could still maintain his original intentions under such torture, like A toy that cannot be destroyed, it is hard to put it down.
"Come on." Lance stretched out his hand to Xie He, with a faint smile on his handsome face.
Xie He passed by directly, and hung Lance's hand in the air.
Lance doesn't mind either. He is used to Xie He's attitude. He doesn't care about this kind of innocuous resistance. He is like a tall lion who disdains ants' teeth and claws. He only finds it interesting. .
It has been almost a month since Lance came back, because he has been busy before, so he didn't have time to attend the welcome banquet held by the Emperor Star nobles until today.
Before going to the banquet, they first came to the mansion of the Duke of Gallagher. Lance smiled at Xie He, "Do you know where this is?"
Xie He looked at him expressionlessly.
Lance suddenly reached out and pulled him over, and put a chain through the metal ring around his neck and fastened it to the floor. The length of the chain made Xie He unable to straighten his waist, so he could only kneel on the ground. He touched Xie He's face , a cold light flashed in the golden eyes, but the laughter was as gentle as treating a lover, "A slave should behave like a slave."
As he spoke, he pressed the switch of the sliding door and walked down.
Joanna received a notice from Lance yesterday that she would come to pick her up for a banquet today. As Lance's fiancée, it was a matter of course, but the thought of meeting Lance Joanna felt a little apprehensive.
Lance is dressed in a white dress today, elegant and luxurious, against his black hair and golden eyes, he is so awe-inspiring that it is almost impossible to look directly at him. Joanna also dressed up, making her even sweeter and more lovely.
She looked at Lance timidly, and smiled: "Your Highness."
Lance was as gentle and gentle as ever. He bent down and took Joanna's arm and said, "My beautiful lady, I hope I didn't keep you waiting."
Joanna blushed, "No, no, I'm just right too."
Lance smiled slightly, and led Joanna to his suspension car, gently held her arm and helped her into the car, with a twitch of his lips, before he followed into the car.
As soon as Joanna came in, the expression on her face froze immediately. She froze for a while, then looked back at Lance in shock, "Your Highness, why..."
Lance said in a natural and relaxed tone, "He is a lowly slave, so naturally he can't look directly at you, but he hasn't learned the rules well enough, so he needs to use some coercive measures, you don't mind. Of course... If you think He offended you, please tell me and I will punish him."
Xie He gritted his teeth, from the moment he saw Joanna, he knew Lance's intention, he deliberately humiliated him in front of Joanna!
How could Joanna make Xie He kneel down on her, quickly staggered her body, and said to Lance: "No, no, he didn't offend me, Your Highness, please let him go back!" Just think of the once dazzling star of the Federation falling to this point , Joanna was very sad, she didn't want to see him suffer this kind of torture.
However, Lance, who always asks for Joanna, did not immediately agree this time, but said lightly: "Miss Joanna, don't forget your identity, sympathizing with a slave is not what a qualified imperial nobleman should do, especially—this Slaves are the enemies who kill soldiers of our empire."
Joanna turned pale.
Lance stared into her eyes, obviously smiling, but the chill in his eyes was chilling, "What do you think?"
Joanna had never seen such a terrifying expression on Lance's face before. She finally knew why she was afraid of Lance. At this moment, she suddenly realized that this was Lance's true face, hidden under his gentle gentleman's affectionate appearance His true colors - ruthless and cruel.
She had an inexplicable intuition that this was Lance's warning to her. Joanna quickly stammered and explained: "No, that's not what I meant..." She rolled her eyes and said with an idea: "I just think he's a bit of an eyesore, and he's not qualified to attend our banquet, that's why he's like that." Say… "
Lance looked at her fixedly, and after a while, he smiled softly: "That's good, if you really sympathize with a slave, such behavior will embarrass me." He gently brushed Joanna's hair away from her. Behind the ears, "As an imperial nobleman and my fiancée, you must always remember your identity and don't do inappropriate things, understand? My honorable lady."
Joanna's scalp was numb, "I, I understand."
Joanna sat down cautiously, not daring to refute Lance at all, nor did she dare to look at Xie He, for she was afraid that she would not be able to help but show an expression she shouldn't have. She understood that her previous behavior was indeed inappropriate... But why couldn't she control her heart
At this moment, His Highness Lance was sitting beside her, obviously still so gentle, but it made her feel cold and nervous.
Xie He turned his head, a look of humiliation appeared in his eyes, this devil!
Lance glanced at him, with a playful smile on his lips... Did he think he would let him go that easily? Do you think you can't see the tricks between him and Joanna? As his property, how could he hope for something he shouldn't have? Not only did he want Joanna to recognize his identity, but he also wanted Xie He to recognize his identity. It was impossible for the two of them!
The palace where the banquet was to be held was not too far from the residence of the Duke of Gallagher, and it didn't take long to arrive. Joanna had never felt that the time was so difficult, and she was sitting on pins and needles all the way, until she got off the car, she dared to pretend not to care and quickly glanced at Xie He.
Only then did Lance untie the chain on Xie He's neck, and said lightly: "Come with me."
Xie He turned his head away, avoided the touch of Lance's fingers, stood up from the ground, and went straight out. Lance looked at his straight back, a meaningful light flashed in his eyes, and he walked away after a while.
Lance and Joanna were the last to arrive. The banquet hall was bustling with imperial nobles at the moment. They all had their own children in their hearts. The emperor was old, the prince was powerful, and there was the support of the Duke of Gallagher. It was no surprise that they It is the future emperor and queen of the empire... Countless people surrounded them enthusiastically, almost overwhelmed by all kinds of exaggerated flattery.
Xie He was quickly squeezed away by the crowd. Many people had seen him in the palace hall before. As a captured federal slave, Xie He was nothing in the eyes of these imperial nobles.
Xie He saw that Lance didn't seem to care about him at all, and quietly walked out of the crowd.
[Xie He: Speaking of which, this kind of trick is really boring. The three of us can continue to repair the field together. I just want to let me go out to move freely, and I can't escape anyway. Smile JPG]
[444: Then... are you still running? _(:зゝ∠)_]
[Xie He: Of course I have to run, after all I am such a dedicated actor:)]
Xie He's appearance is known to everyone in the empire. With the metal ring around his neck, everyone knows that he is a captive of His Royal Highness, and it is impossible to walk out of here in a fair and honest manner. But this is not a prison after all, nor is Lance's palace, so it's not that difficult to find a loophole.
Along the way, I also met many imperial nobles. Although they looked at Xie He with contempt and looked at them with various malicious intentions, no one approached him. His Royal Highness Lance's property, even if it was just A slave is not something that others can touch casually.
Xie He walked to a remote corner, he observed for a long time, only the least guards here. After pondering for a moment, he walked over directly. The guard over there was ignoring Xie He, but when he saw that he was about to go outside, he finally stood up and stopped him, and said sharply, "Stop!"
"I'm sorry, I thought I could come here..." Xie He showed an apologetic expression. Halfway through the speech, a painful expression suddenly appeared on his face, and he fell to the ground.
The two guards didn't expect that Xie He would suddenly fall ill, and one of them quickly reached out to help, but just as soon as he reached out, Xie He snatched the gun in his hand! Xie He grabbed his arm and shot at another guard! And before he knew it, he punched him on the temple! The two guards were killed in the blink of an eye!
Xie He's eyes darkened slightly and his brows frowned. If it was before, there would be no need to play such tricks when dealing with such two guards.
But now is not the time to think about these things, he dragged the two guards to hide behind the bushes, then put his hands together, and turned over the fence! It's just that after only a few steps, I found a man leaning against the wall with his hands folded on his chest, looking at him with dark eyes.
The man has neat short black hair, a stern and resolute face, and a black military uniform, but the epaulets show his distinctive identity. Xie He recognized it at a glance, this is the Imperial Marshal Sawyer!
[Xie He: Baby, how much does this handsome guy like you?]
[444: 50... Hey, it's so high?]
[Xie He: I understand:)]
[444: What do you understand? ? ?]_(:зゝ∠)_
It sounds long, but it's actually just a moment! Xie He shot Sawyer without hesitation! Now that it has been discovered, there is only fighting!
But Sawyer is not comparable to those guards. His eyes are still and his figure is like a shadow. He easily avoided Xie He's attack and came to Xie He in the blink of an eye! Grab his throat and press him against the wall!
"You can't escape at all." Sawyer stared at Xie He's eyes, his voice was cold.
Xie He went to break his wrist with both hands, but he couldn't move it at all. He sneered: "How do you know if you don't try."
Sawyer reached out and pulled off Xie He's collar, revealing the mottled marks on his body, and said, "This is how Lance treats you."
The shameful side was scrutinized by other men, Xie He's eyes showed an angry look.
"Being tortured like this, why don't you give in?" Sawyer looked into Xie He's eyes, and said word by word: "Actually, sometimes, it's not so terrible to give up your dignity and choose to obey, because it won't be painful that way. There is such a Honorable master, wouldn't it be good to enjoy a life of rich clothes and fine food, and stay away from the flames of war?"
"Oh... If it's so good, why don't you choose a master for yourself?" Xie He sneered.
Sawyer laughed uncontrollably, staring at him with black eyes, "It's really stubborn."
"Why bother talking nonsense, aren't you going to send me back! Send me if you want!" Xie He glared at him.
Sawyer shook his head, approached suddenly, and whispered in Xie He's ear: "No, I just want to see if you are worth my rescue."
Xie He was taken aback.
The next moment I heard Sawyer say, "Don't forget how you got the footage of Lance."
Xie He looked at him in shock, "What did you say?!"
He has always known that there is a secret informant hidden deep in the high level of the empire, who constantly provides them with information about the empire, but no one knows who he is. This person is very cautious and has never shown up. His identity is unknown throughout the Federation It's a secret!
After Xie He came to Emperor Star, although he saw some imperial nobles, he never thought that Sawyer would be that person!
Sawyer was born in a rich family of the empire, and he has a large number of imperial troops under his command. He is one of the emperor's most trusted confidants! The power in the empire is second only to the prince Lance and the Duke of Gallagher and other big figures, and has long been on the top of the federation's assassination list... He stands at the top of the empire's power, why should he betray the empire
Xie He looked at him vigilantly, "I don't know what you're talking about." Maybe it's just another conspiracy, these insidious and cunning bastards in the empire really do everything they can to get information from him!
Sawyer smiled. He has been paying attention to Xie He, and he knew it from the moment he failed to be captured, but he didn't mean to rescue him at first... He didn't even think that Xie He could still live and Lance returned to Emperor Star. He thought that Lance would kill him directly after finishing him. People like Lance have always done things cleanly and mercilessly.
So when he heard that Lance not only kept him, but also took him to the banquet, Sawyer became more interested in him. He always admired this tenacious fighter, but he had no intention of getting to know him, but now he It made him curious.
So Sawyer followed all the way to see how Xie He planned calmly and rationally, and then knocked out the guards and tried to escape...
Sawyer stared at Xie He's bright and unyielding eyes, handsome face...and that unique temperament that made people want to indulge in involuntarily, and suddenly understood Lance's thoughts a little bit. It is not surprising that such a beautiful and powerful prey will arouse Lance's interest.
Sawyer believes he deserves his own help.
"Don't doubt, I don't need to lie to you at all." Sawyer whispered in Xie He's ear: "The attack on the Imperial transport team in the Laika galaxy three years ago, and the attack on the Empire Salmon by the Luo Hua Empire a year ago." The assassination of the general, and the batch of energy supplies that you successfully intercepted half a year ago are all information I provided."
Every time Sawyer uttered a word, the suspicion in Xie He's eyes faded away, leaving only disbelief in the end.
"Don't act strange when you go back. You can't escape like this. I will find another way to save you, understand." Sawyer said.
Xie He finally recovered from the shock and said, "I see... thank you."
"Don't thank me, we are on the same boat." Sawyer smiled slightly, his eyes suddenly changed, and he said to Xie He in a deep voice: "Resist me now!"
Xie He was stunned, not understanding why Sawyer did this suddenly, but the next moment he saw Sawyer put his hands on top of his head, lowered his head and kissed him! The other hand reached into his clothes, caressing him frivolously!
Uh... Xie He groaned, looked at him angrily, and instinctively raised his leg to kick him, but was suppressed mercilessly by Sawyer!
Sawyer teased Xie He roughly, kissed him until he was out of breath, then lifted his chin contemptuously, and sneered, "The taste of Federation Star is really good."
"You..." Xie He trembled angrily, and the emotions of shock, anger and confusion in his eyes were intertwined.
Sawyer ignored him, but turned his head and smiled: "Your Highness Lance, can you lend him to play for a while? Of course, I won't take advantage of you in vain. I can exchange a colonial planet. "
Lance walked over step by step, his golden eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of ice, and the corners of his lips twitched: "Really?"
