Her Highness's best friend? The noble man quickly looked at the person next to Eleanor. Seeing the androgynous handsome appearance, he couldn't tell whether it was a man or a woman. However, seeing the beautiful light golden hair draped over her shoulders, it must be a girl. She was just dressed in a more handsome style.
"What a coincidence, Your Highness, you..." The noble man just opened his mouth when he was interrupted by Eleanor.
"Nolund, are you playing your boring tricks of hunting for beauties again?"
"Hunting for beauty?" Sidlifa blinked her eyes, revealing an expression of interest and curiosity.
"I'm not hunting for beauty." The noble man gave a perfect bitter smile, as if to say "You misunderstood me again."
Although the young generation of nobles in Mingxing City were basically familiar with each other, and Eleanor knew his temperament very well, he still didn't want to give the impression of a playboy in front of the strange girl next to him, so he defended himself by saying:
"I just invited them to take commercial photos, but I didn't expect them to be so wary that no one agreed."
As if sharing a joke, the noble man pointed at the girls who were still chattering and strolling around, and said to Eleanor with a smile:
"Look, five beautiful girls, followed by an ordinary man carrying a bag. One said she was his wife, one said she was his girlfriend, and one said she was his personal maid... What's even more ridiculous is that the two little girls actually said she was a maid apprentice?"
The so-called maid apprentice means an apprentice maid. For example, a noble has his eyes on the beautiful daughter of a subject, but she is too young to make a move, so he brings her to the castle to be trained first, and then becomes a personal bed-warming maid when she grows up.
However, this situation is rare nowadays. After all, it is cheaper to hire an adult girl from outside, but it is a bit of a loss to raise a little girl for several years without her working and to provide her with food and clothing.
The noble man was just making fun of it, not noticing Sidlifa's strange expression. He continued, "In my opinion, that man is just their bodyguard, but he is used as a shield by the young lady. How pitiful. When the matter gets to the ears of the head of the family, it will ruin his reputation. Maybe the bodyguard will be fired. The young ladies are ignorant and are ruining the future of their subordinates. Tsk tsk."
He shook his head and sighed, only to see Sidlifa suddenly "realize" and said angrily:
"I understand. Okay! How dare these little bitches snatch the leader from me?!"
"Captain?" The noble man was stunned.
"No, boyfriend!" Sidlifa stamped her feet angrily, "How dare you steal my boyfriend! I'll tear them apart alive one by one!"
She rushed over there aggressively, and the noble man stared at her back in amazement, his mouth half open, an expression on his face that showed he could no longer understand this world.
"She... Eleanor! They..." He was so stunned that he could hardly speak.
"It's okay, she's just joking." Eleanor said, holding her forehead.
"Are you kidding?" The noble man didn't understand at all.
"She probably thought the people across from her were playing some couple game," Eleanor explained.
