So I won't get involved unless necessary.

"I understand, Zanoba, your loyalty to the Kingdom of Shillong is impeccable."

I changed the topic and said: "But relatively speaking, if the day comes when we are desperate, I hope you can survive...even if it's for Benedict."

"...I know clearly."

Zanoba rarely said anything.

On the contrary, he looked a little solemn.

Hope he really understands what I mean.

……

After chatting for a while, I asked Zanoba about Julie’s current situation.

Although I have rarely interfered with Julie since she came to Shillong Kingdom, I believe that Zanoba should take good care of her.

"Julie..."

Zanoba was silent for a moment and said: "She seems to be working as a royal craftsman in the kingdom, specializing in meeting some of the needs of the royal family. The work should be going well."

"...Is that so?"

Although it may be my imagination.

But Zanoba's tone of voice seemed to be hesitant?

Could it be that he was hiding something?

Noticing my suspicious gaze, Zanoba sighed and said: "Okay, actually, there seems to be a little gap between Yu and Julie recently... I don't know exactly what happened. In short, Yu has a lot of feelings for Zhu Li. Li’s current situation is unclear.”

"... what happened?"

I was even more confused.

In my opinion, although Zanoba looks a bit rough, he is actually a thick and thin character.

It's that common contrast between being cute and carefree on the surface, but actually quite thoughtful.

To put it simply, it is emotional intelligence.

If he sensed any problems, Zanoba would immediately make up for it.

And like this, knowing there is a problem but taking no action...

It really doesn’t look like Zanoba’s style.

It would be better to ask a little bit here.

"Zanoba, if it's convenient... can you tell me what happened recently?"

"If it's to the master, there's nothing I can't say."

Zanoba considered his words, and it was obvious that he was very cautious.

Benedict bowed slightly, stood up and said, "It's almost time for Pacus to come back from school. I'm going to see him."

"Ah, okay..."

After Benedict leaves.

Zanoba just said:

"Actually...Julie seems to be deliberately avoiding Yu recently."

Chapter 15 Julie

"Julie... avoiding you?"

When I heard this sentence, I almost thought there was something wrong with my ears.

This is completely incomprehensible to me.

I remember Julie's feelings for Zanoba very clearly.

Although it is an absolutely unachievable love affair, it is understandable to choose to give up one day... But even so, it is unimaginable that Julie will alienate Zanoba, or even take the initiative to avoid it.

I still remember how close Julie was to Zanoba when they were at the academy.

Until Zanoba married Benedict, until the years before I left...

Julie's feelings for Zanoba should not have changed at all.

All she had ever wanted was to be by Zanoba's side.

Companionship is the longest confession.

That is what I thought.

So, I can't understand the current situation.

No.

If pressed, I can think of two possibilities.

First, Julie found a more suitable target.

It's not impossible.

It is not easy to endure a love affair that is absolutely impossible to achieve. Choosing to give up on a road where you know there is absolutely no end in sight cannot be regarded as giving up halfway.

It can only be said that it is safe to turn around.

To be honest, I think this is better for everyone.

Zanoba does not have to feel indebted to Julie, and Julie does not have to endure the pain of unrequited love.

Both sides can be liberated.

As for why it evolved into a situation where Julie was alienated from Zanoba...

I think it can be better explained by guilt.

Julie gave up her love affair with Zanoba because she was looking for a new love, so she felt guilty in front of Zanoba, so she did not dare to face Zanoba and chose to avoid him.

Ok.

The possibility is great.

As for the second possibility, it's even worse...

I turned to look at the back of Benedict who had just left.

The second possibility is that Benedict said something to Julie.

I don’t know exactly what was said, but if it had an impact on Julie’s attitude, I don’t think it was anything nice.

but……

I don't think Benedict is like that.

Benedict and Julie were both my students, and they even worked together to complete the doll for Pacus, and the age gap is not that big.

It can be said that the relationship between the two is like sisters.

Yes, they are sisters.

Benedict as the elder sister and Julie as the younger sister.

I can't imagine Benedict saying nasty things to Julie.

……

"it is good."

Zanoba suddenly spoke and stood up from the sofa.

"Huh? What's the matter?"

I am puzzled.

"Master finally came here, why not take this opportunity to go to Julie's place of work to see her."

"...Alright."

Naturally, I had no reason to refuse Zanoba's proposal.

Since I haven't seen Julie for a long time, I wanted to see her too.

"I wonder what Julie looks like now?"

Luo Qixi said thoughtfully.

She is also Julie's teacher. Both Benedict and Julie once learned knowledge from her.

Luo Qixi has always cared about her former students.

"Julie is a small human, so her appearance shouldn't change much."

"I'll see her soon."

I said this, leading Luo Qixi and Zanoba to the workshop.

Along the way, Zanoba told me about the recent situation.

"Julie started alienating Yu about a month ago. At first, Yu thought it was just because the workshop was too busy."

"But later when we met by chance on the road, Julie just said hello and left in a hurry. This made Yu feel something was wrong."

Zanoba said in a calm tone.

I asked, "Aren't you going to do something?"

"Julie knows how to measure herself."

Zanoba said: "It's normal for girls to have worries. After all, even though Julie is petite, she is actually not a child anymore."

"not to mention……"

"Julie is no longer Yu's slave. How could Yu force her to have no reservations anymore?"

Zanoba's tone was always calm.
