Langdon was taken aback by Lilica's attitude.
There is no need for Lilica to lie, could it be that he really misremembered?But it's impossible, he remembers it clearly...
When this happened for the first time, because Lilica showed no guilt, Langdon was willing to believe that Lilica had just forgotten, so he forgave Lilica.
But the second time, the third time, the fourth time... This kind of thing is happening repeatedly.
Every time, Langdon felt that Lilica would definitely give the answer he wanted this time, but every time, Lilica let him down and let Langdon fall from heaven to hell.
Finally, Langdon couldn't bear to ask Lilica if it was intentional.
Lilica said very calmly: "I know you're there...I also know you didn't do those things...but I don't want to say it, can't I?"
Langdon couldn't believe it: "Why? Have I offended you?"
"... Well, you didn't offend me... and there is no reason... I want to do it, so I do it."
Lilyka had no expression on her face, her dark eyes didn't dodge, she stared straight at him.
Even if there is hatred or disgust in it, it can be considered a reason.
But the problem is that Lilyka's eyes are calm, and there is nothing inside, as if she really did it out of her mood.
Yes, Lilica never took the initiative to do anything bad to Langdon.
She simply watched Langdon fall into the well, and would throw a stone in, but she would never find a way to help him out.
She couldn't even give a plausible reason.
There was no reason for this, but there was indeed malice against Langdon that Langdon could not understand.
Discovering this fact was a huge blow to Langdon.
Being stabbed in the back by someone he had always trusted hurt him more than Helena's suspicion of him.
The most powerful thing about Lilica is that no matter how much she has done to Langdon, her attitude has never changed, and she has no regrets.
Just like now, Lilyka sank into the sofa as if nothing had happened, as if she had never stabbed Langdon in the back, and she replied like a lie without changing her face.
"...Of course, I will be grateful."
20. If you don't go, then I will go
Lilica's nonsense, whatever you say, I will treat it as if it has nothing to do with me, which makes Langdon very depressed.
Helena's jade-like fingers tapped lightly on the armrest.
"What does this have to do with Lilica? Don't change the subject, we're discussing about Kane—in any case, he's been your servant for ten years, and you're going to fire him because of a divination that hasn't been seen yet. Isn't that a little too much? Have you thought about what's going to happen to him?"
Langdon asked back, "What can happen to him?"
Helena sighed: "You probably don't understand, a servant like him who swore to be loyal to a certain family since he was a child, is expelled at this age, and it is almost impossible to find another family, and some people even maliciously speculate that he is He was expelled for a more serious reason, but the master didn't want to expose it..."
Of course Langdon understood!
if not?Kane backstabbed him so many times, did he just fire him?
Don't be kidding, he is not the Holy Father!
Thinking so in his heart, Langdon couldn't admit it: "Flora's divination was said in front of so many people, and they all know why he was fired. No one will misunderstand."
——Although the first reaction after learning about the content of the divination was to fire Kane, it is very telling. It proves that Kane is not trusted by the master, otherwise he would not be so straightforward.
Helena shook her head: "Langdon, that divination, Her Majesty is probably just teasing you... You won't forget what you did to Her Majesty before, right? She is so angry that she wants to draw a line with you. .”
Langdon slowly made a question mark: "What did I do to her?"
Helena said as a matter of course: "You pestered her with the excuse of giving gifts, and you kept her from stepping down in front of other people, didn't you?"
"I……"
Langdon wanted to explain almost subconsciously, but suddenly found himself falling into the vicious circle of trying to persuade Helena.
In fact, there is absolutely no need for this now, this habit really needs to be changed.
If he didn't want to ignore Helena, causing the atmosphere in the house to be weird, even leading the servants to be cautious, and even affecting the atmosphere of the whole family, he didn't even plan to deal with Helena.
After he figured it out, Langdon relaxed his mind and directly skipped Helena's questioning: "I'm too lazy to explain to you, Kane is my servant, I can change it if I want, you can have opinions, but you can only It's an opinion."
Helena's complexion suddenly darkened: "Langdon, don't be too willful. You used to be willful and your scope of influence was limited. Now you are self-willed and affect the entire family!"
Langdon took a deep breath and suggested, "Since you value your family so much, why don't you go back to the Duchy of Stuart."
Originally, Stuart's house in the imperial capital was only built by the Stuart family for the convenience of the descendants with magical literacy to go to school.
Since the establishment of the Imperial School of Magic, the emperor has worked hard to promote a royal decree.
The temples all over the empire will conduct talent tests for children for free. Anyone with magical talent must report it, and depending on the situation, they will be sent to the Imperial School of Magic for study when they reach the age.
Not to mention that, the emperor even went a step further, announcing that those who did not have the certification of the Imperial School of Magic could not claim to be magicians, and it was forbidden to use magic without authorization.
Naturally, the civilians have no opinion. Anyway, based on their knowledge, they can't learn much if they don't go to school, let alone use magic.
But this royal decree caused an uproar among the nobles.
Because it is obvious that this is restricting the power of the nobles, and even forcing them to send their gifted offspring to the imperial capital, which is equivalent to protons-with the background of the nobles, they can learn magic normally without going to school!
I don't know what kind of game the two sides have gone through. Although it was delayed for a while, this royal decree was really implemented.
Maybe it has something to do with the fact that the emperor himself was the most powerful magician in the world, and because the life span of the elves is longer than that of ordinary people, and the extra magic books that belonged to the royal family had more than a few noble families...
In short, Helena didn't go to the Imperial School of Magic, but she didn't stay in the duke's duchy. Instead, she ran to the imperial capital. The reason she used at the beginning was to take care of Langdon.
Langdon never felt that he needed this kind of care.
"Anyway, I don't need you here anymore. It's just convenient for you to try those cases when you go back to the Principality."
"impossible!"
Helena flatly refused: "You are still too young, without me by my side, I don't trust you to handle those government affairs."
Langdon remained expressionless.
He was always apprehensive.
For example, no matter what, Helena is also his foster sister, and she was kind to him when she was a child. For example, she is one of the heroines of the game. If she offends too much, she might kill herself. On the surface, it is better to maintain harmony...
But Helena's stubbornness really took away all his patience.
What happened to the heroine of the game?
Take a closer look, the present Helena, apart from her face, is there anything like the heroine he once had a crush on when he was playing games?
With such a big change, the hero of the game may not necessarily like Shanghai Lianna, so why should he be restrained?
Would it be better to be pissed off than to be killed by the hero of the game?
"You're not leaving, are you?"
Langdon stood up and nodded politely: "Then I'll go."
Helena looked at Langdon in astonishment, and stood up subconsciously: "Where are you going?"
"It has nothing to do with you. In the worst case, I will live in the school. You can continue to live here--Housekeeper, pack up today's documents, and I will send someone to pick them up later."
Anyway, the school has let him in and out. Helena's wish to lock him in the school is doomed to fail. He met Roland before going home today, and now he just wants to read the documents when he comes back, but the documents can be moved freely. It's not fixed in the Duke's mansion.
Finding out that Langdon was serious, Helena seemed to realize that Langdon never had to live in the Duke's Mansion.
In fact, he could never set foot in this house again.
And she couldn't enter the school at will, so she could only wait for Langdon here, and it was very likely that she might not see Langdon once a month.
Helena was a little panicked, and reached out to pull Langdon: "Wait...wait a minute! You don't even want to leave your home because you want to fire Kane?"
How could it be... She thought so much about Langdon's reaction, but she was never mentally prepared for Langdon to move out!
Langdon raised his arms, avoiding Helena's hand, and said seriously: "It's not because I want to fire Kane, it's because of you—your existence prevents me from treating this place as my home."
Helena's icy face instantly turned pale, and even her originally rosy lips lost their color.
Her pair of beautiful eyes were wide open, as if there were tears flashing, but when she looked carefully, it seemed that she was just staring at Langdon too intently, resulting in nervous paranoia.
"I, I'm just for your own good..."
"What I hate most is hearing you say that." Langdon took the coat from the maid and said indifferently and politely, "I wish you and Lilica a pleasant dinner."
"You, are you leaving now? Are you going back to school? Your school dormitory is not suitable for storing important documents... Lilyka! Lilyka, what do you think?"
Helena still refused to give up, and even rushed to the doctor in a panic.
Lilyka, who obviously has been leaning on the sofa all the time, but has a very low sense of presence, as long as she doesn't take the initiative to talk to her, seems to be wandering, blinks slowly, as if thinking about the purpose of Helena calling her suddenly.
A second later, Lilyka nodded.
"Well, indeed... Then Langdon, do you want to come and live with me?"
21. As you wish
Langdon looked at Lilica incomprehensibly.
He couldn't understand exactly what kind of mood Lilica was using to say these words. Could it be that he thought he was a goldfish and forgot what she had done to him?
Doing something like that to him means hating him, right?
He is very tired of Helena now, so he plans to move out directly. This is the real attitude towards people who hate him... How could someone take the initiative to live with someone he hates?Not a new backstab trick, is it?
Considering that Lilica knew it well, Langdon didn't even bother to hide his dislike for Lilica, and opened his mouth to be sarcastic.
"I don't think we're familiar enough for that."
"Eh?"
Lilica's doll-like delicate face tilted expressionlessly, her night-like eyes stared at Langdon, and said in a soft voice.
"Haven't we known each other for more than ten years?"
Helena's originally stable posture became visibly anxious: "No, Lilica, I'm not asking you to provide a better place to live, I'm asking you to persuade him not to be so capricious..."
At this time, the maid had already put on Langdon's coat and handed him the cane.
Langdon, who didn't intend to listen to Helena's nonsense anymore, walked towards the door without hesitation.
"Landon!"
Helena subconsciously called out to him.
Although Langdon's attitude had become a lot colder before, he also persuaded her to focus on other things, to have more fun and so on.
She was annoyed at first, but then she felt that in another way, despite Langdon's insistence, he still cared about her.
But today is different.
Looking at Langdon's tall and straight back, Helena felt a strong sense of foreboding.
This bad premonition filled Helena's heart with resistance, and if she thought about it in that direction, she would feel a piercing pain.
That firm step, as if he really would never look back at her again.
But Langdon has only her family, this is Langdon's home... No, no... Langdon is the Duke, and the place where he lives is the Duke's Mansion.
On the contrary, what is it for her to stay alone in this "home"?
Is this still "home"?
She couldn't let Langdon go.
If Langdon did go, she would, she would...
Helena clasped her hands in front of her unconsciously, her fingers clenched tightly, and her pale lips habitually spat out threatening words.
"If you leave now, don't come back later..."
She thought she would be as confident and confident as before, and Langdon chose to compromise.
But in fact, as soon as the words came out, even Helena herself realized that her tone was so weak that it was almost inaudible.
Even before she finished speaking, she already felt a strong sense of regret, feeling that she should not have said it.
No, no...!If he were to say this now, Langdon would—
