Be a matchmaker in an otome game

Chapter 30 Pursuit

It was just a morning like any other. After Safi got up and finished cleaning up, she heard the maid come to report: "Miss, the Crown Prince is here."

Safi frowned slightly: "Why did Your Highness come so early?" If there is no urgent matter, it would be rude to come to visit so early, because the host must not have even had breakfast. If you want to talk about things first, you will delay the host's breakfast time.

, if the host is asked to eat first, the host will also feel offended.

"Did His Highness say whether he had breakfast?"

"No."

There should be something important to discuss with her father, so Safi ordered: "Go and prepare a breakfast for His Highness."

The maid bowed and said, "Madam has already given the order."

Safi nodded, stood up and opened her arms to let the maid help her change clothes. Seeing that the maid had a little excitement on her face and was still hesitant to speak, she asked: "Is there anything else?"

The maid seemed to be waiting for Safi to ask this question. When she asked, she said as if taking credit: "Your Highness is also holding a large armful of lilies. He said that he just picked them from the palace garden this morning.

With dew.”

Safi laughed: "What's wrong with bringing flowers? His Highness always brought some gifts every time he visited before." The two families had an engagement, so Fred giving things was a sign of closeness. This was normal.

"But," the maid quickly added, "His Highness emphasized that the flowers were for the eldest lady."

Safi still didn't think it was anything, so she smiled and didn't answer any more. She asked the maid to comb her long silver hair, then got up and walked to the reception room.

She originally expected to see her parents and His Highness present at the same time. In that case, she would not be rude even if she did not speak, she would just sit quietly aside.

But Fred was the only one sitting on the sofa in the reception room, and the prime minister and his wife were nowhere to be seen. This made Safi instantly nervous. She stood at the door of the reception room, her hand holding the doorknob slowly tightened,

He forced a smile and asked: "Why is Your Highness here alone? Where are my father and mother?"

Fred stood up holding the bouquet and said with a smile: "They left beforehand." Then he walked forward and handed the bouquet over.

Safi had no choice but to take it and pass it to the maid.

Safi didn't even glance at the bouquet during this process, as if this was just a necessary process and she didn't care at all.

But there are also "understanding" maids. The maid who received the bouquet made a surprised voice: "Miss, there are a total of thirteen pink lilies."

Understanding some basic flower language is also a compulsory course for nobles to avoid making jokes due to flower selection in interpersonal communication, and thirteen pink lilies are the foundation of the foundation.

The meaning of thirteen pink lilies is: You are the person I have a crush on.

Such naked and straightforward affection was displayed so unabashedly in front of Safi, which caught her off guard.

Safi's mouth was filled with bitterness. How could she be worthy of such deep friendship?

In the end, Safi could only say with difficulty: "Your Highness, thank you for your trouble." Such an indifferent attitude was even too much for her. Why should a good person like His Highness bear her sarcastic words?

It's just that Fred didn't take it seriously. Felicia reminded him yesterday about this situation, asking him to have some patience and not to act too hastily.

"Let's go have breakfast, and then I'll take you to school." Fred changed the subject with a smile. His gentlemanly demeanor allowed him to see that Safi was in a difficult situation, so he chose to give in.

Sure enough, Safi breathed a sigh of relief and nodded. She only wanted to walk to the dining room, because her parents should be having breakfast at the moment, so she didn't have to spend time with Fred, but she didn't pay attention to Fred's words.

The prime minister and his wife were indeed in the restaurant. They seemed to have reached an agreement with Fred. After seeing Fred and Safi appear, they all speeded up their eating. Before Safi's soup was served, they

He left on the grounds that he had eaten well.

Safi watched helplessly as her parents left. Her pride prevented her from asking her parents to stay. She could only sit on pins and needles, eating her breakfast without knowing what to eat.

"Safie," Fred called out in a funny voice, and reminded her softly when Safie looked over in confusion, "you've finished eating."

"No..." Safi was about to retort, but when she saw that her bowl was indeed empty, she realized that what Fred said was true. It was just that she was so high up in the sky just now that she didn't even know what to eat.

But she was really embarrassed, and she was so rude in front of Fred. Safi was instantly ashamed.

"Sorry, Your Highness..."

"Okay," Fred interrupted her with a smile, "it's not a big deal, don't take it to heart."

This is the tenderness of His Highness. Safi found herself in a different situation. She could not be so calm and tolerant of other people's mistakes.

"Thank you, Your Highness." She thanked her in a low voice, secretly warning herself not to make the same mistake again.

Fred looked at her dinner plate, which was already empty, and stood up: "After you finish eating, let's go to school. I remember you have two classes this morning."

Safi nodded, then remembered what Fred said before, that he actually wanted to send her to school in person.

Safi was so shocked that she almost turned pale in shock to have to sit opposite Fred in a closed, small space.

"Your Highness, there is no need to give it away," she said, looking at Fred with pleading eyes, "I can go alone."

Under Safi's rare look of weakness, Fred almost wanted to nod in agreement. At that moment, it even crossed his mind that as long as Safi was willing to look at him like this from now on, he would give her his life.

But he was still rational and shook his head: "I also have something to talk to the principal of the college. Isn't Safi willing to give me a ride?"

This is how his father taught him how to get along with the prime minister. The original words are as follows: "Although the prime minister seems rigid and does not know how to adapt, he is the most reasonable, so you should not have a head-on conflict with him, but be reasonable.

.”

He thought that Safi was the daughter of the prime minister and should have similar temperament to the prime minister, so when he gave such a high-sounding reason as "going to find the principal", Safi was speechless and could only nodded and allowed him to talk to him.

Peers.

The moment Safi turned around, Fred curled his lips secretly, secretly happy that he could be alone with Safi again.

Safi ordered the housekeeper to prepare the carriage, and emphasized: "Prepare a more spacious one. Don't neglect His Highness."

The housekeeper glanced at Fred, saw that he nodded to him, and then retreated as ordered.

Safi didn't notice the quarrel between the housekeeper and Fred. She was lowering her head and not meeting Fred's eyes, as if she could pretend that Fred didn't exist.
