Chapter 298 Commitment

"Take care of Monica while I'm away..."

Only at this moment does this big man, who has always seemed very wise, show a hint of paternal helplessness.

He patted Chen Fan's shoulder gently, as if he was handing over the lovely daughter he had protected for so many years to another man.

This is like a inheritance and a trust.

Chen Fan, who originally had great confidence in Duke Ang, felt inexplicably uneasy in his heart.

He always felt that Duke Ang had a feeling of explaining the aftermath.

It's like realizing that his life is not long...

Chen Fan looked back uneasily, but only saw the figure of the other party leaving firmly.

The figure from behind seemed to be talking to Chen Fan.

He already knew how difficult the path he had chosen was, but he still chose to go on it.

Ugh……

Chen Fan shook his head but still didn't say anything.

He believed that Duke Ang could naturally think of things he could think of.

Since Duke Ang has chosen to go on, he will naturally have his own path.

When Chen Fan walked out of the study room, he felt the murderous intent of war coming from the air.

This world is finally going to be in chaos.

The more times like this, the more mice that hide in the darkness like to come out and run around.

Duke Ang is no longer in the royal capital in the future, and due to the unclear relationship between him and the king, the royal capital may be in turmoil.

Living in a police station, I am afraid that I will have to face more strange things from all over the place.

The entire royal capital was afraid of becoming muddy water at this time.

But Chen Fan's gaze was still the same as before.

His eyes were the same as that of the slave Chen Fan standing in the dark Colosseum.

The darkness around you cannot affect you!

Moreover, Chen Fan also heard it from Duke Ang's hint.

Duke Ang allowed himself to do it boldly and confidently. He should have helped him deal with some troubles from the top in secret.

As long as his achievements are great enough, his promotion is a sure thing.

It seems that this time when I return to the capital, it’s time to show off my talents!

He strode forward and soon saw Monica, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, at the end of the corner.

Monica, wearing a pale white dress, looked like an angel falling from the sky.

Monica's eyes were slightly red, as if she had just said goodbye to her father and mother, and it was a very uncomfortable time in her heart.

When she saw Chen Fan not far away, Monica couldn't hold back the pain in her heart anymore and trotted towards Chen Fan.

Monica fell into Chen Fan's arms for a long time, hugging him tightly with all her strength.

As if afraid, Chen Fan would also stay away from her.

Holding Monica in his arms and smelling her faint fragrance, Chen Fan only felt a softness in his heart.

The two of them didn't speak, they just hugged each other quietly for a long time.

……

After half an hour.

Chen Fan held Monica's hand and stood outside the gate of the Bellucci family castle, watching everyone leave.

All the servants and slaves came to the door to see off their master. Duke Ang returned to the front line again for the kingdom.

At the same time, many people also noticed the intimate behavior between Chen Fan and Monica.

This kind of hand-holding action is simply incredible in this era.

Especially it happens to a noble like Monica.

It's just that neither of them cares.

It wasn't until Duke Ang and the others left completely that Said emerged from nowhere.

Said looked at the hands of the two people with a dead smile, a cold look on his face.     “Haha, dear sister.”

"My father and mother have just left, and you are so anxious to hold hands with another man. Isn't it a bit unreasonable?"

Originally, the relationship between the two brothers and sister was still a good relationship on the surface.

But after Monica was kidnapped, their relationship became much more distant.

Chen Fan did not reveal his guess about that matter, but the smart Monica was not that kind of naive and silly lady.

Monica could feel it faintly.

Ever since Chen Fan was by his side, Said has been targeting him intentionally or unintentionally.

This also made their relationship worse and worse.

At this time, Monica said nothing when she heard Said's somewhat sarcastic words.

He just pursed his lips and raised the hands that held them tightly together.

This move has already given Said the answer.

Syd was just used to mocking, but he didn't expect Monica to be so direct.

He glanced at the two of them with squinted eyes, snorted in the end, and left without saying anything.

Judging from the resentful look in Said's eyes, he most likely blamed Chen Fan for this matter.

After all, if it weren't for this annoying slave, how could his always obedient sister become like this?

When Said left, Monica pulled Chen Fan and suddenly looked pitiful.

"Can I be with you... No, I mean, I can go into the capital to celebrate the New Year."

I almost said my sincere words about wanting to spend the New Year with Chen Fan.

There were two more peach blossoms on Monica's fair face.

Seeing this girl, Chen Fan couldn't help but chuckle.

"If you want to come to the Royal Capital, of course you can."

As soon as the Duke and Duchess of Ang left, the two brothers and sisters seemed to return to their original lives.

Do whatever you want.

Without Duke Ang, no big shot would come to disturb the Bellucci family castle.

Moreover, the war is expected to destabilize the kingdom for some time.

Speaking of this matter, Chen Fan thought of the winery.

"If the grain in the winery has not been used to make wine yet, let's keep it for now."

"I estimate that the kingdom will usher in a period of rising food prices."

"At this time, if you have a batch of food in your hands, you can get through this period safely."

"If you can still contact people outside, try to buy as much food as possible."

Monica nodded, knowing the urgency of this matter.

Once a war breaks out, food is definitely the thing that soars the fastest.

In particular, the Iron Gale Kingdom itself is not a major food-producing country, and a large part of its food needs to be imported from neighboring kingdoms.

Once the war started, food prices skyrocketed.

The living conditions of most people in the royal capital are that they can have wine one day and get drunk the next.

If you don’t have money, you’ll go work. If you have money, you’ll go buy alcohol. I don’t think I even have much food saved at home.

By that time, there will definitely be profiteers who will concentrate grain and raise prices uniformly.

Let everyone in the royal capital eat expensive food.

At this time, having food in hand is the real confidence.

Monica, who was originally thinking of coming to the royal capital with Chen Fan, suddenly found what she should do.

Before Chen Fan could say anything, she took the initiative to stay and at least try to find ways to get more food.
