Chapter 162: Chapter 162: Blood Clan Princess VS The Newly Embraced Human Girl (Part 17)
“You’re really confused!” Mr. Brodt paced around the study twice.
“According to you, if Lance’s teacher can overpower Hart with a single sword strike, it wouldn’t be strange for her to notice you,” Mr. Brodt said with some melancholy, “Such a strong person would invariably be proud and aloof. What if she gets angry and leaves? What would we do about Lance then?”
Madam Laine was also somewhat anxious, “I only intended to test the waters with her at the time. How could I have known Hart would speak so bluntly?”
Suddenly, Mr. Brodt asked, “Is that mysterious powerhouse really as formidable as you say?”
Speaking of that, Madam Laine’s eyes lit up, “My God, I have never seen such elegant swordsmanship. I watched her just gesture lightly with the sword and a burst of light appeared from it, and then the sword was at Hart’s throat.”
After pondering for a moment, Mr. Brodt finally made a decision, “In that case, you will take an apology gift and go to apologize in person later.”
Such a strong person was worth humbling oneself to make acquaintance with.
After all, Madam Laine was not foolish. After pondering briefly, she understood her husband’s intention and nodded, “Alright, I’ll get ready.”
The arrival of Madam Laine was within Gu Shengyin’s expectations.
“Your Grace, I offended you today, I am in the wrong. Please forgive me,” Madam Laine sincerely apologized.
Gu Shengyin hadn’t planned to make a big deal of it, after all, this was her lover’s mother in this life. She nodded and accepted the gift from Madam Laine.
Lancelot showed up at the small courtyard arranged for Gu Shengyin by the Laine Family in the evening, “I’m sorry.”
Gu Shengyin didn’t say anything.
Lancelot was not foolish.
The other party had made it clear enough—being the Blood Clan Princess, she concealed her tracks to come to the human world for his sake, accompanying him during sword practice, and taking care of his well-being.
What did he do to deserve such heartfelt treatment from her?
Yet, she had been wronged in his presence.
Suddenly, he saw Gu Shengyin move, then she disappeared from the room.
Lancelot was taken aback. Was she angry and had left?
He couldn’t help but raise his voice and call out, “Yekaterina, are you there?”
However, no one answered him.
Lancelot sat down somewhat dejectedly. She must be angry and doesn’t want to see him.
In reality, Gu Shengyin had not thought things through that much. Her sudden disappearance was because she had sensed Olinwen’s presence.
“You’re indeed here.” Olinwen’s voice revealed no emotion.
Seeing Gu Shengyin’s puzzled gaze, Olinwen’s bellyful of anger suddenly had no outlet.
Tell her that he realized she hadn’t stayed in Nightingale Castle for a long time, and upon investigating, he found she had been staying at a human man’s house?
Confess that he was jealous, so he sought her out recklessly?
What right did he have to say such words?
Ultimately, he could only force out, “I heard that you’ve taken a liking to a human recently, so I specifically came to see for myself.”
Gu Shengyin wasn’t in a good mood at this moment, and she responded icily, “I remember that this place isn’t under the jurisdiction of the Malkawi Family. Olinwen, you’re overstepping your bounds, aren’t you?”
Olinwen was about to reply when his figure suddenly froze.
He distinctly heard the word “Yekaterina” carried over by the wind.
“You actually allow him to call you by your name?” Olinwen felt his anger flaring inch by inch.
“Olinwen, I, Yekaterina, have no obligation to report my actions to anyone. I have things to do, I’m leaving now,” said Gu Shengyin as she turned around to leave.
A hand reached out, blocking her path.
