Fel doesn't lie to you

Chapter 9 The Price of Beauty

"Don't mention it, Jennifer, the candidate for His Royal Highness Prince Alsace's Imperial Guard has been selected a long time ago, and I failed before I passed."

The noble young man named Xiao En seemed very polite. When Li Ke passed by him to pick up the tools there, he gave way to Li Ke, which was completely different from the other nobles Li Ke saw.

Of course, this may also be the reason for him to maintain his demeanor in front of Jennifer.

After all, if he had been polite, he wouldn't have barged in on horseback.

Picking up the hammer and nails on one side, as well as the wooden planks that had been prepared earlier, Li Ke walked to the broken fence that he saw at first sight when he came, and after a little observation of the fences in other places, he began to repair it. stand up.

As for what Jennifer was talking about with that man named Sean, it had nothing to do with him.

The style of the fence is quite simple, and the request made by Jennifer is not very difficult for Li Ke, and the wood prepared on one side is also the same size as the wood used for these fences, which is very convenient.

So he started working very quickly, and the jingling sound was obviously a bit noisy, which made that Xiao En look at Li Ke with some dissatisfaction.

But seeing Li Ke's unfamiliar face, he just frowned, didn't say anything, but looked at Jennifer.

"By the way, Jennifer, our family is going to hold a banquet these two days. Are you interested in attending? If so, I'd be happy to have you as my dance partner."

There is no doubt that there is enthusiasm on his face, but Jennifer is a little hesitant.

"Sean, isn't that your engagement party? Is it inappropriate for me to go?"

She politely declined.

"Who cares about that woman, Jennifer, I prefer someone who understands me and I understand to be my dance partner."

There was a look of disdain on Sean's face, as if he didn't care about the noble girl who would become his fiancée.

"Sorry, Sean, you know, I'm just a merchant's daughter, and I'm not suitable for such a banquet."

Jennifer shook her head. Although her father is a good friend of the lord, he is actually just a subordinate. If there is an official position, it is not impossible for her to go.

But on such an occasion, it's not suitable for someone like her to appear.

And she doesn't want to get in trouble.

"You're different, Jennifer."

Sean was a little anxious and wanted to grab Jennifer's shoulders, but Jennifer just took a slight step back and avoided Sean.

"Sorry, I'm just like everyone else, Sean."

Jennifer shook her head, she didn't see any love in Sean's eyes, only a kind of possession.

Sean's eyes were no different from those of those young drinkers.

Sean still wanted to say something, but at this moment, a stern voice suddenly sounded.

"Sean!"

The voice was a little angry, and Sean's body froze, and he had to turn his head to look in the direction of the voice.

It was a muscular middle-aged man with flowing red hair.

Also his father.

"Forget what I told you?! Don't disturb the townspeople! Look at the stupid things you do!"

This robust middle-aged man was wearing armor. He rode over on a black horse with a disappointed expression in his eyes.

Xiao En looked at his father with a dissatisfied expression on his face. He muttered something that no one heard, then he held his horse in dissatisfaction and walked out of the vegetable garden.

And the old man didn't say a word the whole time, he just stared at Sean and Jennifer beside him.

It wasn't until his son left the vegetable garden that he untied a bag from his waist and threw it in front of Jennifer.

"Ask your craftsmen to make this fence stronger for me! It's better to be the kind that can kill people!"

There was a crisp sound from the bag, and Jennifer sighed and bent down in front of her lord, showing off her curves.

"Yes, my lord."

The lord stared at Jennifer, and left with a cold snort after she picked up the bag of money.

Li Ke, who was watching the whole process, didn't feel much. The girl in front of him was in trouble, but his trouble was bigger, and he had no interest in such things.

To say why...

He has nothing to do with the girl, and he doesn't have the strength and qualifications to control her.

He wasn't in that mood either.

He pity the girl, who pity him?
However, Jennifer had no intention of leaving, but walked to Li Ke's side with the bag of money.

"Are you curious?"

Li Ke didn't lift his head.

"not at all."

"Then you won't stay here for long, will you?"

"I don't know, it depends on whether I get a job."

"Then you must not stay here for too long, because I have stayed with you for too long."

"........."

Li Ke had nothing to say. He had experienced this feeling before and knew that Jennifer was telling the truth.

This was pretty much the situation of the stranger in this medieval age.Living under the fence of others, being squeezed out by others, not one of our own.

It's easy to kill a person.

But he still didn't stop his work, but continued to repair the fence.

"Since you won't stay here for long, then I'll say it. The lord's son wants me to be his lover, because many people have repeated that the woman he is going to marry is a promiscuous person, and everyone is pity He. But I will not pity him, because the people who spread these words are his followers."

Jennifer spoke suddenly, and it seemed that she had held back for a long time.

"And I've been there before. That girl is a very pure and beautiful person. Sean will definitely like her very much, so Sean just wants me to pity him."

"He wanted me to pity him, and then let me sleep with him... The worst thing is, I don't even know if our lord has similar thoughts about me."

She sneered.

"So look what my beauty has done for me."

Li Ke just listened quietly, but the movements of his hands did not slow down, and continued to repair his own fence.

However, at this moment, a figure appeared in front of the fence that had been knocked open, and there was a horse behind him.

"That's right, Miss, your beauty can only bring you disaster, and there are still many troubles, so I can only please you, or your beauty will disappear."

The man covered his face, and Jennifer subconsciously stood up, grabbed Li Ke's arm, and wanted to pull Li Ke back into the back kitchen.

But, it's too late.

It seemed that because Li Ke was also here, the man did not draw out the sword on his body, but opened a bottle, and poured it over before Jennifer could react.

Jennifer couldn't dodge in time, and the liquid splashed on her pretty face.

"what!!"

She let out a heart-piercing scream, and lost her previous grace and calmness.

And her beauty also disappeared.
