Outside them were the people sent by the ten elders to monitor them, and Sai Lan who barged in. There was no sense of security in that seemingly closed door.

Someone from outside could break in and see them at any time.

If the other party is Count Reims, he should immediately push her away, then scold her and ask what she is doing, and ask someone to push her out.

Qiao Nian's lone wolf-like eyes saw his slightly pursed thin lips, with a faint arc that seemed to be a smile but not a smile, adding a bit of mysterious charm. A few strands of light brown hair slipped from the edge of the mask and rested casually on his broad forehead.

If it weren't for that damn silver mask, she seemed to see the expression on his face that was not afraid of death, that damn sense of relaxation.

"Maybe... your boyfriend doesn't trust you."

Qiao Nian felt a wave of anger rushing into her head, almost destroying her proud reason. She wanted to immediately remove the mask that was blinding her eyes and see if the face hidden behind the mask was what she imagined.

She suppressed her anger and lowered her voice: "I told him that I will ensure my own safety. Why is he worried?"

The man who was always being pulled by her tie and leaning forward raised the corners of his lips and answered innocently: "How do I know what your boyfriend is thinking."

"..."

Qiao Nian felt upset as her temples bulged, and she unconsciously tightened her hand on his tie.

The Count of Lance was pulled down a few inches by her.

The breathing of the two gradually became clearer, and the fire in each other's eyes could be seen when their eyes met.

He slowly raised his hand, as if he wanted to touch Qiao Nian's face, but stopped when he was about to touch it and lowered it again.

"You have dark circles under your eyes."

"?"

Qiao Nian saw his hand raised and lowered, and then heard that he cared about her. She raised the corners of her lips in a sneer, let go of her hand, and rarely cursed.

"none of your business!"

Earl of Lance was not angry at all. He followed and paused: "You need to go back and have a good rest."

Qiao Nian sat down on the sofa. When she heard this, she put her chin on her hand, tilted her head and looked at him, and said deliberately: "You don't wonder where I come from, and you don't ask who is behind me. You just let me get close to you. Not angry yet? Isn’t it a bit strange?”

"This is my territory." Earl of Lance bent down and poured her a cup of tea, placed it in front of her, and said angrily: "My cup is clean."

Qiao Nian couldn't help but clicked her tongue irritably again, her heart was agitated by him, but the person who was trying to catch her insisted on pretending to be stupid with her but refused to pretend to be stupid to the end.

She leaned back on the sofa, picked up the tea cup with her left hand and turned it around without drinking. She lowered her eyes and didn't know what she was thinking, and suddenly stopped talking.

Even though it was dangerous outside, you could still hear the noise of the assistant and Sai Lan arguing.

Count Reims did not interrupt the quiet atmosphere in the room at this time.

He was looking at the woman sitting on the couch.

Qiao Nian waited a few seconds before saying, "After today, I won't have the chance to see you again for a long time, and I won't be able to protect your safety."

"I have people protecting me, I don't need you to protect me." Count Rambo answered the question.

Qiao Nian held her head and looked at him, her dark eyes reflecting his face: "You don't need my protection, you still don't need me. The mysterious Earl of Lance~"

The man who had always pretended to be very good picked up the apple on the table, hesitated for a second, and said hastily: "I'll peel some fruit for you." (End of Chapter)
