The night was dark, but Li Jia's room was still lit.
Li Jia's eyes widened, but his gaze drifted out of the sky, his hands stiff in the air, shaking slightly. The whole person is like a piece of rotten wood about to be blown down by the wind. Standing alone in the wasteland.
Holding a wine glass, Xiao Chen looked at his expression indifferently. He laughed inwardly in his heart, but he said sincerely, "Ah, I don't know how the Earl had such a strange idea. Perhaps this is what the feudal parents did. But I did n’t promise him. "
Li Jia froze for a while before rubbing his face with his hands and mutteringly said, "No strange, no strange, no wonder, no wonder."
"Hey, are you okay?" Xiao Chen asked, looking at Li Jia's movement like a puppet.
"I'm fine. I just said something to me before recalling him. I now want to understand something. Ha ha, I didn't expect to end up and travel to a different world. I am still looked down upon."
"Don't move, you can't look down, you guys, can you be confident." Xiao Chen couldn't look down on Li Jia's bitter gourd. "In the past life, you are also a graduate student of a famous university. Don't make this pitiful look, will you? "
"You don't understand! In the past, everyone thought I was just a timid and useless nerd. In addition to good grades, what else can I do, those girls are too lazy to take care of me!" Recovered from his appearance and said angrily.
"You can prove to them that you are not, I know that you are sometimes clever and can get things done. The last time you did business with the guys in Floro town, you didn't make a lot of effort. Again, here You ’re still the only one in the school who has a beauty in a different world!
Xiao Chen comforted.
"That was just a coincidence. Celinda himself said that she approached me at the beginning just to spy on intelligence."
"But you took her down. The typical sugar-coated food was eaten and the shells were sent away."
"What's the use!" Li Jia's voice grew louder. "I want to marry her, but her father looks down on me!"
He grabbed the wine glass in Xiao Chen's hand, and suddenly poured the remaining wine into his mouth. The sweet fruit wine choked into his throat, making him cough uncontrollably.
"Cough cough." Li Jia coughed for a while before slowing down. He lifted his face flushed with anger and shouted, "I was thinking, why I was half a month earlier than you, the old guy never got along I talk about practical things. Why is his attitude towards me always so lukewarm. It turns out he just thinks I ca n’t! This old fox is too treacherous! "
"It's just a different position to look at the problem. You don't need to say that to him. How can he be your prospective father-in-law?" Xiao Chen said.
"He despised my strength. He felt that you were much stronger than me. So he wanted to marry you. These shameless nobles only knew the benefits in front of them. I clearly awakened the power of magic, and I am not strong enough now. Isn't it going to work in the future? He even abandoned me like this! "Li Jia roared a few times, and began to gasp because of emotion.
He walked back and forth angrily in the house a few times, several times trying to smash the glass in his hand to the ground, but finally put the glass heavily on the table.
"Smash it, smash it, you'll have to buy a new one if you smash it. Whatever we say is a small profit." Xiao Chen smiled lightly.
"Why aren't you in a hurry? There's still a joke in your mind." Li Jia said angrily.
"I was thinking that you were mad at Earl, or drunk because of drinking a little wine, would it be cheaper for me. How to say Celinda are all beautiful women with exotic flavors, and I don't lose with me, I have What's so anxious? "Xiao Chen took a sip of leisurely and asked rhetorically.
"You guys! You still say that!"
"Okay, do you still want to hear what happened later?"
"Don't talk nonsense! Tell me, what did you say in the end?"
"Before telling you, let me ask you a question first." Xiao Chen asked himself in a straight seat, "If the Earl insists on his opinion, he will not let Celinda marry you. The school needs the Earl's support very much. , So I do n’t want to make the relationship rigid for you, what would you do? "
"Me, me" Li Jia was splashed with cold water and calmed down. "I can't afford to hide. Since you all have trouble with me, I will take Celinda!"
"Where are you going? Are you sure she will go with you? Are you sure you can feed her? Are you sure you can escape to a new place and start living?"

"There is no way to be a man."
"Also, what about the school? If the earl broke with us, and then he wanted to return to his land, even to wage war?"
"This" Li Jia wanted to say a few cruel words at first, but when he seriously passed through the current situation several times in his mind, his expression began to become lonely. He held his face in his hands and sat down slowly, "I don't know."
"If the Earl, the school, everyone said that as long as I married Celinda, these things would not happen, would you really jump out and object?"
Li Jia refused to speak slowly, but slowly lowered his head, "I really don't know."
Xiao Chen looked at him for a long time, and when he saw that he didn't speak, he said abruptly: "Counsel! Where did the previous temper go?"
Li Jia looked up at Xiao Chen and said: "You have said that the school needs his support. I, I can't force you to do anything bad. What if it affects the survival of everyone?"
"The reason is terrible. It seems that the Earl lobbied me." Xiao Chen shook his head. "If you want to fight hard, don't be afraid of pressure. Fear of a wolf and a tiger, what can you do? If you don't have the determination, I How to help you?"
Li Jia was a little surprised, he wiped his face hard with his hands, and looked up: "You are right. I was confused."
Xiao Chen continued: "I rejected the count at the time, and I told him clearly, 'If any of us would marry Celinda, that person would only be Li Jia. If Li Jia married Celinda, it was not Because we treat them as a bargaining chip for marriage, but because they are in love. 'Of course, the count laughed at my innocence, but I have tried my best to convince the count that you are a qualified person to marry her.
"I, alas, I may be really useless. But, but you are very good." Li Jia whispered.
Xiao Chen stood up and patted Li Jia on the shoulder, saying: "In the face of huge benefits. Marriage of this kind of thing is ultimately unreliable. What we have to do now is just stabilize the count, so that we have enough time to settle down, If a marriage that you had longed for would make him trust us more, it would be a double-done thing. It ’s just that this marriage may not be a good thing, maybe it will give you a huge test. I ’m a little worried now. In the face of tremendous pressure, will you regret this choice?
"Enormous pressure?"
"The society we grow in is completely different from here. Our ideas and ideas are incompatible with the people here. If we survive, we must be challengers of order, and all the beneficiaries of the old order will be our enemies. Unless we are willing to give up the ideas we cherish, and feel at ease to make a screw of a feudal society, to honour the high-ranking and whip the low-ranking. "Xiao Chen slowly said, revealing a sense of historical weight," I know that some of us can do this and are not ashamed of it at all. But I ca n’t do it, Principal Guo ca n’t do it, and Luo Ling ca n’t do it. What about you?
"I, I will not be a feudal lord, but will liberate them like you did. I don't like those nobles who completely ignore civilians. I have been here and treated this kindly. Residents, but sometimes they are too scared of me. "Li Jia replied.
Xiao Chen immediately asked: "Did you not find out? You have been here for more than half a month, and you can already get used to facing the civilians who bow and kneel to you. Not to mention you will grow into a powerful magician, beyond others. Status and strength will keep you standing high. I do n’t say you can imagine, standing in a high position, and not looking down at people, how difficult is that. Are you really so confident? "
Li Jia was shocked, and the cold sweat behind him had shed. He knew that he was not a firm-willed person, and the feeling of being a man was so wonderful. These days, everyone's respect for him has already made him used to this feeling. ‘Power is more attractive than beauty and spirits’, and what the Earl said one day sounded in his head.
"Not to mention that by then, you are a member of the feudal lord ’s family. If Celinda wanted you to look like a lord at that time, take care of those untouchables?’, What would you do? "
"Me" Li Jia couldn't help but hesitate.
"I don't want you to be transformed and degraded in the end because of her relationship, and become a nasty ghost above."
"I, I will try to change her, how to say, we all represent something more advanced. I don't know what you think of Celinda. But I can feel that she is a kind person in her heart." Li Jia said solemnly.
"But if we finally break with the count inevitably, this kind of pressure from both sides is what you have to bear. This is not just a splint, maybe a real life-and-death decision. Do you want to understand?"
Li Jia went silent, Xiao Chen was not anxious, but slowly waited for him to understand that from Xiao Chen's heart, he was contradictory, he never felt that Celinda was a good match, but Li Jia was against her But his mind is as clear as the torch in the night
"I can't guarantee anything. I just know that if I don't fight for it now, I will regret it for a lifetime. Even if I will fall into someone I despise, I can't let me give up this." Li Jia raised his head and said.
Xiao Chen looked at Li Jia for a long time and did not know what was in his heart. After a long time, he said: "I understand that, since this is the case, we will find a way to get you enough power as soon as possible."
Xiao Chen got up and opened his duffel bag, and took out a heavy book from inside.
