If it is impossible, the newspaper office will be closed for a period of time, safety first.

As for what Roland thought when he read the letter that made him feel a little bit more, and whether he would also think that he was delusional, Langdon didn't intend to think about it anymore. Anyway, he should remind him, he is Roland's friend, and Not his father.

Because the time was just right, Langdon stayed with Shalltear for dinner.

Of course, the chef cooks according to Langdon's favorite taste, so Shalltear knew that Flora had "developed" many dishes at a glance.

But it was really delicious, Xia Tiya couldn't help but think, this way of increasing favorability and presence is really great, but it's a pity that she couldn't learn it.

What she can do is to work more, or develop a few sources of income, and give Langdon a share. When Langdon checks the financial statements at the end of the year, he can think about her more.

Alas, among the few people who like Langdon, she is the most difficult one.

I won't mention Flora, Langdon's life is already full of traces of her, and Princess Bellatrix is ​​also very dominant, at least not as full of burdens as hers——

Having said that, Princess Bellatrix has now returned to live in the palace, so she shouldn't be sneaking into Langdon's room in the middle of the night like in the Principality or on the road, right?

He was very concerned, but he was too embarrassed to ask, let alone to say that he would sleep in the Duke's mansion to investigate the enemy's situation tonight. After dinner, Shalltear could only leave worriedly.

And Bellatrix, whom she was thinking about, also visited Langdon's study room again after skipping the ticket all night.

"I heard that you went to look for Brother Four today?"

Langdon was waiting for someone while reading a book. He suddenly realized that Bellatrix had arrived when he heard this sentence. He subconsciously turned his head and looked. Her long blond hair and skirt were entangled with the evening wind, and her pure and beautiful face was shrouded in a hazy light by the moonlight. At first glance, she was very artistic, and any random part was a game cg.

But Langdon's reaction was: "Come in quickly, forget about the principality, I don't want any strange rumors to spread here."

Bellatrix had long been accustomed to Langdon's blunt words, she jumped off the window sill kindly, and even drew the curtains behind her back.

"You haven't answered me yet, why are you looking for Brother Four?"

"Can't you just want to run a horse?"

Bellatrix looked suspicious: "You? You ran so far to race horses on purpose?"

She almost said it was impossible, you are not this kind of person, you must have some other purpose.

According to Bellatrix's conjecture, Langdon may have been a little disturbed by the recent news of the royal family, and she kept telling him what her royal brother was doing...Maybe Langdon wanted to see the situation for himself .

But why is it Brother Four... She hates Brother Four the most!

It's better that Langdon is not really optimistic about her fourth brother, otherwise she will really be angry.

Langdon didn't intend to hide it, and he didn't hide his conversation with the fourth prince. As long as Bellatris had the leisure to inquire, she would definitely be able to find out.

So he modified it a little, and replied: "I'm a little worried about you, so I went to ask what's going on."

I'm really worried, I'm worried that something big will happen if Le Ziren is unhappy...

Bellatrix, who had no confidence in this aspect and was full of dark thoughts, was stunned for a moment.

"Huh? Worried about me?"

...Really, didn't Langdon always hate her?

20. The secret I want to tell you (3k)

Bellatrix was shaken for a moment, but after all, she still had a good idea in her heart, and she quickly realized that Langdon was worried about her causing trouble! ! !

It was too realistic. It took less than a second to think clearly before and after, but the gap was so big that even Bellatris felt a little angry.

But Bellatrix wasn't angry because of her self-indulgence. Her anger was directed at Langdon.

Gentle, caring, and saintly Langdon.

But alone he was so ruthless to her.

Even if he knew that it was all due to his own actions, but——obviously Flora and Helena were not much better!

Langdon forgave Flora, and he was more tolerant of Helena who hadn't done anything to make amends. Shalltear, who had cheated him, was not punished from the beginning to the end.

It was just her, and it always felt unfair that Langdon continued to treat him with such a cold and distant attitude.

Bellatrix didn't think about what others paid and what she did herself. She had been in a bad mood recently, and now she was directly dissatisfied with the differential treatment in a very self-centered manner.

Bellatrix couldn't help but said in a strange way: "Are you still worried about me? What are you worried about?"

Langdon also knew that he couldn't hide it from Bellatrix. After all, both of them knew the plastic relationship between them well. His statement was just a little more euphemistic, so that it would not sound so harsh.

But Bellatrix's reaction still surprised Langdon.

…Strange, he thought that Bellatrix would smile and say something sarcastic as before, but she didn’t really care…Why did she seem to care this time? !

Is it acting?Looking for a change?

Or was it because of her mother's serious illness that Bellatris didn't have much fun and became sensitive and irritable?

Langdon couldn't figure it out.

He could only sigh, and replied, "Princess, it would be strange if I still remain unmoved after seeing you like yesterday."

Bellatrix knew that this was a speech technique, but the cleverness of the speech technique was that even if she knew the truth, it sounded more comfortable.

The thorns on her body were slowly retracted, but she still put on a displeased expression, wanting to listen to Langdon's softening.

It's a pity that Langdon would only change the subject: "Okay, do you want to hear the story?"

Bellatrix: "...Do you only know how to tell stories? Since you have asked about it out of 'worries', I am right in front of you, why don't you say something else?"

Langdon had a look on his face that you are really difficult to deal with: "Didn't you still act like you refused to say anything yesterday?"

"I changed my mind."

Bellatrix sat on Langdon's desk, her lace skirt fluttered, her slender legs overlapped under the skirt, her feet in high heels and a small section of her fair calf slipped from the skirt. Leaning out, Langdon could see the gold chain around her slender ankle without looking down.

Her white jade-like arms can be seen in the hollows of the lace sleeves, with the back of her hands supporting her chin and her elbows resting on her thighs. Her upper body is leaning forward, and through the same hollow lace design on her chest, she can be vaguely seen The gully in the chest.

Bellatrix looked down at Langdon who was sitting on the chair, the tail of her blond hair fell in curls following the movement of her tilting her head, brushing his hand on the armrest of the chair, causing a burst of numbness.

Feeling very itchy, Langdon took his hand back calmly, endured it, and then raised his hand to pull down the hem of the skirt that was close at hand, covering her legs: "It's almost cooling down, how about Aren't you cold in this skirt?"

So many cutouts!It's leaking just by looking at it! ! !

Bellatrix: "...everyone wears it like this."

Although the August Empire had a queen who was very capable of fighting, so the atmosphere is relatively open. Pants are not the privilege of men, and women can also wear them, but there are relatively few nobles who do this. After all, there are too few tricks that can be played with trousers. I like all kinds of comparisons, but the visual effect of the skirt is better...

And the point is this! ?What's wrong with this man! ?

"I feel sorry for you." Langdon said, frowning.

"……Oh."

Bellatrix felt awkward for some reason, quietly put her legs down under the skirt, and changed to sitting upright on the table, and opened the fan with the hand that was supporting her face, covering her face .

She wore it like this for a day today, and everyone she met in the palace, including her father and mother who was seriously ill, would only praise her for being beautiful when they saw her dress.

Her mother still kept the key words in three sentences: "It's so beautiful, you should dress up like this, so that you are more like an elf..."

Their seemingly concerned words were only on the surface. No one, no one cared whether she was comfortable or not, whether she was cold or not.

Instead, it was Langdon.

Bellatrix knew very well that he didn't even care about her so much because he had a good relationship with her, but he was just a good person. Even if he hated her a little, it didn't affect his essence, which was full of kindness that was incompatible with this world.

She finally understood why she wanted to find a place to be quiet yesterday, and her subconscious reaction was to come here.

...How sad that the only person in this world who really cared about her was Langdon, and what she enjoyed was Langdon's treatment of most people.

Many times, Bellatrix would have a strange destructive desire to Langdon, wanting to make Langdon hate the world like herself, so that no one could get his tender treatment.

But on very rare occasions, such as now, Bellatrix would feel that she was inexplicably weak again, even if she only enjoyed the care that Langdon didn't realize, she hoped that Langdon would continue to do so.

This contradictory mentality made Bellatrix's already depressed mood even more uncomfortable.

She was silent for a while, then suddenly spoke.

"...my mother may be dying."

Langdon: "...I see."

too direct!Really too direct!There's no need to tell me this!

Bellatrix ignored Langdon's awkward reaction and continued, "I thought I'd be happy, but it doesn't feel like that's the case."

"..."

Langdon couldn't even be a fan this time - it was too difficult!

It's fine if you hate your father, but why do you even hate your mother!You also hate the world!There is nothing you like in this world, are you still alive for fun? !

Ah, but to put it this way...

When Bellatrix was so familiar with Helena's condition before, he was a little strange, and didn't understand where this pampered princess knew a mental patient.

Now it seems that the emperor seems to be normal, so there should be something wrong with Bellatris's mother?

Sure enough, Bellatrix said with a blank expression: "Mom doesn't love me at all, she loves the 'princess of ancestral bloodline'."

This time Langdon has something to say: "But you are the princess who returns to the blood of your ancestors. Don't separate yourself from what you own so clearly. There is no need to distinguish things like love so clearly."

Bellatris sneered: "Really? But my elven magic talent was only awakened when I was 13 years old. Before, they all thought that I was only a return to my ancestors."

This can be regarded as a royal secret, and there is no news from the outside world. Hearing the news suddenly, Langdon was stunned.

"At that time, my mother was very disappointed, but my father was even more disappointed. He was so happy for nothing. He even wished that I hadn't been born. Now who is showing me as if he has always loved me? I look like Is that nice to coax?"

Langdon didn't try to speak now. He found that Bellatrix was completely immersed in her own thoughts. What she might need was a place to vent her emotions. As long as someone was listening across from her, there was no need to express anything. remarks.

Listening to Bellatrix revealing her hateful and tyrannical side without any concealment, and babbling about her past, not caring that it was full of experiences that damaged her noble princess image, Langdon I couldn't help but get a little distracted.

Now he not only thought of Bellatrix's familiarity with mental patients, but also remembered that when Bellatrix was at the inn at the beginning, she didn't change her expression when she ate such unpalatable barbecue meat, and said that she had eaten it before. Leftovers—although he quickly covered it up with a joke.

At that time, he really thought it was a joke. After all, who would have thought that the emperor's favorite elf princess had such an unbearable past?

Langdon could understand Bellatrix's filial and anti-social remarks now.

This person has never felt any kindness from birth to the formation of the Three Views, and even her mother can't count on it.

It would be better to say that after spending so long with the mentally ill, Bellatris did not turn into Helena, and was able to suppress those negative emotions and choose the right person to vent her anger. She is already a very rational and helpful person.

Everyone is a blank slate when they are born, and they need to experience being treated tenderly before they can learn how to treat others tenderly.

And Bellatris lacked too much in this aspect, all she received was negative emotions, no wonder she was so aggressive.

I don't know how long it took, Bellatrix, who finally finished speaking the resentment accumulated for more than ten years, finally came back to her senses and realized what she just said.

She stiffened, staring down at Langdon's armrest, wondering if she should look up to see Langdon's reaction.

...Although Langdon has always had a bad impression of her, at least she still looks very glamorous on the surface, as if she is a serious princess, but her personality is not good.

But now, she couldn't even hold on to this seemingly glamorous surface, and her rotten and dirty interior was completely exposed in front of Langdon.

How long had Langdon not spoken?

What did he think after hearing those?What would he think of her?

Bellatrix didn't even realize that she had thought about killing Langdon several times in her heart, but now she was worried about what Langdon thought of her.

After a long time, Langdon said slowly, "Are these the secrets you said you wanted to tell me at your birthday party?"

"……Um."

Langdon asked calmly.

"Then now, do you still want to kill me?"

[ps: There is something wrong with the three-dimensional, the update is late... I will add an update at night, and I still owe two updates~]

21. Good night, princess (3k)

"... Generally speaking, shouldn't you comfort me at this time?"

This man... What the hell is going on with this man!

Do you really not know the atmosphere at all? !

Bellatrix held the fan so hard that her knuckles turned blue, and she restrained her urge to roar.

Even if she didn't want to be sympathized with, let alone the emotion of "pity" in Langdon's eyes when he looked at her——
