Ivan didn't know when he came to their side.

His appearance made Ace's relaxed mood tense again, and the words he wanted to say to Sihuang were swallowed back in his throat.

Si Huang saw the subtle changes in her expression, stood still and did not speak, smiling and watching Ace deal with it by himself.

Since the little girl said that she would not be allowed to intervene in the subsequent affairs, it shows that she has her own plans and means of coping.

In fact, this is indeed the case. Ace can't be relaxed in the face of Ivan, but he is not timid. At this moment, he turned to face Ivan, and said with a neither humble nor overbearing attitude: "I was just asking if K was injured anywhere and if he needed to rest."

"Is it necessary then?" Ivan asked Sihuang.

Si Huang shook his head first, "There is no injury." Then he looked down at Ace and smiled lightly: "But I think it would be nice to have a quiet place where we can rest alone."

"Come with me," Ivan said.

He personally led the way, led Sihuang and Ace upstairs, and finally sat down in a quiet resting area in the right corner upstairs.

"Stanley, go greet the others." After sitting down, Ivan said to the middle-aged man behind him.

"Okay, my lord." Stanley left with his head down.

When he was about to go down the stairs, he couldn't help raising his eyes and glanced at the corner. What he looked at was not Ace but Sihuang. He unexpectedly met a pair of pure black eyes. The first impression was that he was not stained. The softness of the dust, and then the other party smiled in a friendly and polite manner. The elegant smile made Stanley stunned. When he came back to his senses, he didn't look at it again, but turned and went downstairs.

What an amazing oriental.

Stanley commented on Si Huang in his heart.

He recalled Si Huang's smile in his mind, and found that the more he wanted to know about this Asian youth, the more he looked at him, the more confused he became.

Chunche is just an appearance, in those clean eyes, he can't understand any emotions and thoughts of that Asian young man, which only shows that the other party is an unfathomable guy.

At this time, there is Ace who is as restless as Stanley.

It turned out that through a simple conversation with Ivan, she realized that Ivan was not interested in her. This did not make her feel disappointed, but she was relieved. That's why when Si Huang looked at her and asked her what she meant with her eyes, she silently expressed that she wanted to leave.

I am very glad that K can understand the look in his eyes, explaining that he wants to go to a quiet place to rest alone... However, Ace did not expect the earl to follow him, and for a moment he did not understand what Ivan meant.

Is this interesting to you? Still boring?

Ace looked at Ivan calmly, thinking about whether he should open his mouth to test, or continue to remain silent.

While she was thinking, Ivan had already asked, "What do you need to drink?"

He asked very naturally, and his words and deeds were full of gentlemanly demeanor.

Ace didn't want him to serve her, but it would be even more impolite for him to refuse, so she responded, "Blueberry juice, thank you."

Ivan nodded, smiled and motioned for the two to wait for a while, then turned and left.

As soon as he left, Ace's straight back relaxed, and his noble expression couldn't be maintained anymore. He frowned at Sihuang and complained in a low voice: "What do you mean by the count? Although I heard that he Very gentlemanly, but there are no other waiters here, there is no need for him to call everyone away, and then do it himself."

Si Huang looked at the little girl tangled up in a funny way, and shrugged helplessly. She thought it was probably because Ace was too tense when facing Ivan, so he didn't notice Ivan's secret little moves——Ivan He didn't ask her what she wanted to drink, but when she was leaving, he slightly bent over her and made an imperceptible familiar movement.

That kind of behavior and his smile both express a meaning: Please wait a moment, my eldest lady.

Ivan occasionally looked at her, full of respect, pampering and tenderness as always, as if he was a wayward master who was playing pranks and playing role-playing games.

This man is really very sick, and he is extremely sick sober.

"What do you want him to mean?" Sihuang asked Ace back.

Ace thought about it carefully, and then said clearly: "When I thought he was not interested in me, I was sure I was in a good mood. The current situation makes me very anxious. Okay! I think I'm not I don't want to be his princess, although it can bring great benefits to Mephiseld, but I'm not sure I can play a pure and innocent princess well!"

When he said the words "purity and innocence", Ace's expression crumpled like eating a fly.

"Hahaha." Si Huang laughed.

Ace belatedly realized that he had made an inelegant expression, and hurriedly restrained himself, the tips of his ears turned red again, and stared at Sihuang with vicious eyes, "You are very rude."

"Oh, I'm sorry, it's all because you're so cute." Si Huang said earnestly.

"Don't play tricks on me!"

Si Huang found that she seemed to be really angry, so she put her hand to her mouth like a zipper, and coaxed Ace, "I'm sorry, I didn't know you didn't like to be honest, if you don't like the adjective cute..." Noticing that Ace's expression became more vivid, and even his eyes shone like sapphires, Sihuang finally found the true restraint in his conscience, raised his hands, and seriously admitted his mistake, "It's my fault, I should train my resistance to cuteness more force."

It was the first time Ace lost his temper when he was angry, and when she reacted rationally, she found that she had done something she would never do before - kicked Sihuang.

This kick landed on Sihuang's calf, and it was not light.

"Ah." Si Huang whispered.

Ace looked over nervously, and looked at Si Huang's smiling eyes, and immediately knew that she had been tricked again. Her cheeks were pink, and she definitely didn't admit that she was shy, but angry! "K! I misjudged you! I knew that you men don't have a good thing!"

If it wasn't for the wrong place, and he didn't want to tease the little girl too much, Sihuang would laugh out loud again. She endured it, and felt that it would continue, fearing that she would not be able to bear it first, so she echoed Ace and said, "You're right."

Hearing this kind of coaxing tone, Ace was even more unhappy. Thinking that he was deceived by Sihuang before, he was really worried that he would not come up if he kicked in pain, and kicked him angrily again, accusing him with his eyes Sihuang: Let you pretend to be in pain! It really hurts you right now!

With this kick, Ace suddenly felt a chill all over, and a terrifying sense of crisis swept over her body, making her blushing face instantly turn pale.

Sihuang's smile also subsided slightly, and she raised her eyelids and cast a warning look at Ivan who was walking towards this side.

The dark waves in Ivan's eyes disappeared instantly, and returned to a gentle depth. He put the blueberry juice in the tray in front of Ace's table, and then handed the freshly brewed black tea to Sihuang.

Si Huang glanced at him, reached out to take it, without even saying thank you.

If it was normal Ace, she would definitely feel that something was wrong with this scene, but she didn't notice it when she was frightened just now. After her heart slowly returned to normal beating, she vigilantly observed the surrounding circle. Focusing on Ivan, I don't know if the hostility just now could even be called a murderous sense of crisis, who is targeting her?

Because of this little episode, Ace became even more insensitive to Ivan, and even a little resistant. He originally planned to chat with him, but now he knows that sitting together and not talking will make the atmosphere weird, so he doesn't intend to take the initiative Say something.

Although she didn't know who was targeting her just now, and she couldn't produce any evidence to prove that it was Ivan, subconsciously, she couldn't help but suspect Ivan.

Because of Ace's negative attitude, only Ivan and Sihuang were left to talk. In fact, it was mainly Ivan who asked and Sihuang answered.

"The queen likes your works very much. If the two develop in country Y, the queen will welcome them very much."

Ace expressed his thanks in a low mood, and Ivan looked at Sihuang, who raised his head and smiled and said, "There will be opportunities in the future."

Ivan asked gently again: "How long will K continue to work in Country Y this time?"

"I'll be back in two days." When Sihuang said this, his eyes were on Ivan's body, and he felt his body stiffen for a moment.

"Why don't you stay longer?" Ivan said, "There are many interesting places in country Y, you can look around."

This is the hospitable attitude that the host should have. Sihuang understands Ivan's real intentions in disguise. The patient can't stimulate the bottom line of his illness. Countless thoughts have turned in his mind. On the surface, he is as relaxed and warm as Ivan. "There are still many opportunities in the future, but if you miss the exam, it will be treated as zero. My goal is to be the first."

——My goal is to be number one. ——

——I am Jasper, the first place must be mine! ——

Ivan's expression paused, and the way he looked at Sihuang slowly changed.

Ace finally noticed something was wrong with this gaffe. She was startled at first, and then looked back and forth between the faces of Ivan and Sihuang.

Of course, Sihuang's expression was flawless, and Ivan came back to his senses quickly, but even if he restrained himself in time, Ace still became suspicious.

Of course she didn't think about the matter of the count's princess, but she just noticed that Ivan's attitude towards Sihuang was not right, as if she was more interested in Sihuang than in herself.

Ace couldn't help but think of a possibility. Could it be that the rumors outside are true, that Queen Elisa really took a fancy to K, and that's why the Earl noticed K? No! K will definitely not become the queen's male favourite, he came to accompany me, I said that he must not be in danger!

"Hmm." The sudden groan interrupted the conversation between Sihuang and Ivan, and also broke the delicate atmosphere.

"What's wrong?" Si Huang looked at Ace and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

Ace pretended to be very painful and patient, "My stomach hurts...I want to go back..."

"There is a room upstairs, let's go there and rest first, I'll get the doctor over." Ivan's warm and magnetic voice came.

Ace's expression froze. He was pretending to be ugly, but now he was really ugly.
