"I knew it would be like this. You young people always feel that they are omnipotent, but in fact they still don't understand the true meaning of life."
"Do you mean life is not an adventure, but survival, this sentence?" Xiao Chen asked.
"you know?"
"Tahiya and I said your motto. But, in many cases, the adventure is just to survive."
"Okay. I know I can't convince you, but" Vincent lowered his head here, as if he was thinking about something. Then he looked up again and said, "There is one thing that I didn't talk about originally. Not sure if this is a scam. But now, I have to talk to you. "
"Do you know that night when you and Tahiya left, were you seen?"
"We were the last to leave that day, but we were in a hurry, and it was not ruled out that guests who walked slowly saw us."
"It doesn't matter who you see it. But with the disappearance of Tassia, there have been some unpleasant rumors in the Magic Society. Do you know?" Vincent said
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Of course you don't know. Shouldn't someone like you who is not familiar with the circle get the news at the latest?" Vincent sighed. "I have heard at least four or five different versions."
"What rumors?"
"It's nothing more than a matter of men and women. After all, she went out with you so late. It's not a noble girl's thing to say." Vincent's expression was not good-looking, and he obviously didn't want to say much.
"But Bellia was there that day." Xiao Chen glanced at Bellia, only to find that she was a little absent-minded.
"How do you think the facts are important? The rumored people will only tell two stories, what they want to tell and what others want to hear." Vincent sneered. "What's more, what is she present as a guard Strangely, do you think that the nobles are going alone? "
Xiao Chen said: "Of course I am willing to clarify this matter, but there is a word in our hometown that the more cats, the darker. After all, I don't have any evidence."
Vincent waved his hands, stared at Xiao Chen for a while, and said, "I don't need you to clarify the facts, that's useless. I just need to provide you with an irrefutable identity, and all the problems will be solved naturally. "
Xiao Chen looked at each other's eyes and had an ominous hunch in his heart.
"Fiance." Vincent said one by one, "I want to declare that you are the fiance that she secretly had an engagement with before. In this way, both the reputation of Tassia and the honor of Alonso's family are guaranteed."
"This is ridiculous."
"She wants you to restore her reputation at least because you only have the soul."
Xiao Chen stood up and said sincerely: "Tahya has me remembering all my help. But this matter can be solved by other methods. If clarification does not work once, we can say twice, three times, we can even please Those heavyweights came out to prove it. "
"Young man, listen to me first. This is something that is only good for you." Vincent waved him to sit down. "I will give you all the treatment, resources, and magic that Tahiya's fiance should have. Guidance, various opportunities to recognize powerful mages, and the protection and support of the Alonso family. And you only need to play the role of a man who has lost his fiancee. The support you provide will last as long as you play this role. Year. If you are really going to take this role forever, the Alonso family will recognize you as a member of ours. "
Seeing Xiao Chen talking again, Vincent said again: "If you are worried that Tahiya has no body. I will leave Bellia. Let her take on the role of a wife."
Xiao Chen was taken aback by the proposal. He immediately sternly refused: "This is impossible. I disagree. I believe neither Tassia nor Bellia will agree."

"On the contrary, why did Tahiya disagree? It ’s no big deal between nobles. Bellia is the daughter of the groom, and our family discovered her talent for grudge, and gave her the opportunity to grow, So everything she owns is originally family, and the meaning of her existence is Tahiya. Before that, she even considered self-discipline to enter your world and then accompany Tahiya. But Tahiya refused. Just right Tarsia is good, she can do anything. "Vincent glanced at Belia sideways.
"Yes. Your Excellency Xiao Chen, I can do whatever I want for the sake of Miss." Belia came over and knelt in front of three people on one knee.
However, Xiao Chen didn't see a certain degree of determination from her blue eyes, only saw hesitation and panic.
"Mr. Alonso. I still refuse." Xiao Chen's voice was cold, and he was really angry. In Vincent's eyes, the strength of Belia, a civilian, was only a tool. Switching between a sword and a pillow can even be abandoned without hesitation when necessary. Although the strength of this ancient family may be very strong, the high-ranking warriors are ultimately a minority. This kind of careless attitude comes more from the nobility's disdain for civilians. Xiao Chen believes that if Bellia is the daughter of a broken noble, she will never be treated like this.
"Do you know what it means to reject the Alonso family?" Vincent's voice also became tough.
Xiao Chen was about to fight back, but was stopped by a look in Luo Ling.
"Mr. Alonso, let me remind you a little bit. Today we are here to solve the problem rather than cause conflicts. If your trouble is only the reputation of Miss Tassia. Why is it so troublesome? As long as you cooperate a little, I can solve it. "Luo Ling said indifferently.
After Vincent left, Xiao Chen appeared in front of Taxia again.
Taxia's behavior is very strange today. When he saw him, he turned away and hung his head down.
Xiao Chen said: "Tahya, your father just talked to me."
"Uh." She responded softly.
"I want to know who the idea of the so-called fiancee is."
"Ah? Naturally my father."
"Then what do you think?"
"I didn't say anything. I don't know." Her voice grew softer.
"What did Bellia have to do with you?"
"Beliya? Are you saying that she wanted to commit suicide? I refused firmly." Taxia said, "I also quarreled with my father."
"There is something else, I mean let her replace you."
"What do you mean? I don't understand."
Xiao Chen was relieved, at least there was a lot less embarrassment: "Sorry, your father's proposal was rejected by me very firmly."
"Oh." Tahya didn't respond much, and she looked at the ground. "This, it's not strange at all."
"I'm sorry. You have a good rest." Xiao Chen felt very embarrassed, and disappeared from her face after speaking.
"Alas," Tahiya stared at the distant sea.
