Chapter 175: The So-Called Childhood Sweetheart (Please support me tomorrow!)
"Have you heard? The love words that Anthony said were so disgusting that his fiancée even vomited!"
"Uh, Anthony of Eli's family?"
"right!"
"His fiancée, I remember, is...that Sophie from Jacelyn's family, right? Isn't she now a diplomat in the parliament at that time? Did she really vomit?"
"Of course! Can this be false?"
"What are you talking about? Why do you hear it differently from me?"
"Huh? Isn't that right?"
"The version I heard was that the smell of the perfume on his body was so strong that everyone present vomited it out."
"This... I can only say that it is indeed him!"
"Hahahahaha, this Anthony can always do things like this, it's quite interesting."
"It's true, hahaha..."
…
…
The room was silent. Sophie, who was wearing glasses, read the report, put it aside expressionlessly, took a new one and continued reading.
One after another, she read very quickly without any change in her expression.
The room was filled with an oppressive atmosphere, making people dare not take a breath.
Finally, someone couldn't hold it in any longer.
"...Ahem, Sophie, are you angry?"
The blond Anthony was sitting on the sofa. He finally couldn't help but raised his hand, coughed lightly and asked:
"Did I cause you trouble?"
"If I hadn't embarrassed you then, you wouldn't have vomited it out in such pain."
"It's all my fault that you are now the laughing stock of everyone."
"You punish me! I will accept any punishment!"
His words were sincere, his voice was emotional, and his expression was completely sincere. Anthony blamed himself very much and begged Sophie for forgiveness.
There was no response, and Sophie continued to review quickly as if she hadn't heard anything.
It wasn't until she read a report again that she frowned and closed her eyes, as if she didn't want to see something dirty.
"well……"
Taking off her glasses and opening her eyes, Sophie looked at her fiancé, who was sitting on the sofa in front of her.
From the appearance, there is nothing picky about Anthony. Even Sophie, who is used to seeing handsome guys, can't find anything picky about his face.
As the eldest son of the direct line, Anthony has perfectly inherited the characteristics that the Eli family is proud of, and has extremely good looks.
The only regrettable thing is the disgusting affectation on his expression at this moment.
With moist eyes like a puppy and a delicate face, he exudes an aura that makes mature women involuntarily soften their hearts.
But it's a pity.
This doesn't work for Sophie who really knows his true face.
Not only does it not add points, it actually makes me feel a little queasy.
"It's okay, don't worry, this is not social rhetoric."
With a calm expression, Sophie took out a few pictures from the reports she had read and clicked:
"The nobles are indeed as idle as I thought. In such a short period of time, your gaffe has spread to all the families."
Blinking his eyes, the sad Anthony blinked in confusion, as if he heard something wrong just now.
Wait...my gaffe?
"Yeah, yes, yours."
Sophie used a quill to circle the report and mark the key points.
"Under my arrangement, among the dozen or so versions of rumors circulating now, 90% of the reasons for this incident are you."
“The remaining 10% are ‘I hate you so much that I want to vomit’, and ‘you reek of stench’, which are rumors that are not reliable at first sight.”
"Nine truths and one falsehood, I believe they will have their own ability to judge."
Smiling, Sophie shook her head gracefully:
"After all, I just despise you, I can't say I hate you."
Anthony: “…………”
"The situation is now under control. If you don't take the initiative to make trouble, this matter will be settled like this."
"Anyway, you have so many bad debts on your head, so this is not the least of them."
She bound these reports together and threw them directly in front of Anthony.
"Besides, don't act like this in front of me. Just be normal."
Don't do this.
"Those lonely and empty ladies are trying your best, but I'm sorry, I can be very popular."
Without mercy, the smile on Sophie's face disappeared, showing explicit resistance, looking at Anthony with disdain.
Don't let me go crazy here!
They can be considered childhood sweethearts. They have been engaged since childhood and have been dating for almost 30 years. They already know each other's character clearly.
Even though he seems sincere and innocent, his fiancé is really white and black.
"Geez, how can you miss your fiancé so much?"
Without picking up the report in front of him, Anthony looked away.
Anthony didn't care about Sophie's contempt, he still maintained his distressed look, and shook his head sadly:
"It's so sad."
As he said this, Anthony's expression gradually returned to normal, with an arrogant and playful look on his lips.
"Huh, but that's right. You don't have to be secretive here."
He put his arms on the back of the sofa and stretched his long legs. He lazily looked at the decoration in the room, and after a while he smacked his lips and said:
"Your family is as hypocritical as ever. Although you earn so much money, you always decorate your room so...simplely."
Although it is simple on the surface, those who are truly knowledgeable can see the various exquisite materials and combinations from the details.
However, this kind of detail that only a few people can see is called the secret.
In the eyes of most people, the Jia Silin family clearly controls the title of the richest among the nobility, but they always put on some hypocritical performances.
"It's just for people like your family who are as superficial as ever."
Sophie had no reaction to Anthony's words. Sophie responded lightly, glanced at his side face and said:
"I have something to say. What are you doing here this time?"
Anthony turned back and shrugged at his fiancée who was indifferent to him:
"I said, you are so unwilling to see me? We are still an unmarried couple after all, right?"
Sophie picked up a gold coin from the table, rubbed it on her fingertips, and said calmly:
"It's not that I don't want to see you. I just want to know why you came."
"I still remember that the last time we met, someone said goodbye and it was time to get married."
Speaking of this, Sophie showed a meaningful smile:
"What, have you finally made up your mind? Do you want to marry a 'free-spirited' woman like me?"
"Mr. Eli's prodigal son."
The atmosphere between the two changed, and offense and defense were exchanged at this moment.
The corner of his mouth twitched, and Anthony finally turned his head away.
Seeing his appearance, Sophie shook her head invisibly.
prodigal son?
Just a coward...
"It's time to get married."
Um?
"I will be ready when I come to see you."
Turning back, Anthony coughed slightly, and then said somewhat unaccustomedly:
"Although I say that, I still have relationships with a few people that have not been completely broken off, and I have to wait for a while..."
Sophie rolled her eyes. Facing such a fiancé, she didn't even bother to get angry.
Fine.
Can you expect any more promises from a slutty scumbag?
"Since we have to wait, why are you looking for me this time?"
Although she wanted to get up and kick this lazy bastard, Sophie's mood became relaxed at some point.
The tone of voice was less sinister and more rude.
Ahem.
After coughing lightly, Anthony quickly put away the embarrassment on his face, sat up straighter and said:
"My old man wants me to help you for a while...about "Star Chaser"."
"He means that since you have to participate according to the rules this time, it is only natural that I come to protect you."
The Jia Silin family will send members of their own family to participate in the "Star Chaser" competition every time.
This is a tradition and a rule.
Although many people do not understand why the bookmaker would do such a risky thing as taking the initiative to end the game, this rule has still been retained.
After a moment of silence, Sophie did not refuse or say that she did not need Anthony's help. It took a long time before she said:
"What about you? What do you think?"
Faced with such an adventure, what are your thoughts?
Anthony was stunned for a moment, then smiled:
"Of course..."
A faint wave of energy emitted from his body, and his eyes revealed the arrogance that had been suppressed before.
"It's so exciting."
Unlike Sophie, who has no power to restrain a chicken, the Eli family has the blood of legend, and the inheritance of legend has never ended.
And Anthony is the key cultivator of this generation.
Seeing the confidence and arrogance on Anthony's face, Sophie raised her eyebrows and nodded silently.
"Okay, I understand, don't be an eyesore to me."
Pulling out a piece of paper, Sophie wrote her signature, and then used the ring on her middle finger as a seal to seal it.
"With this piece of paper, you can move around freely in the Silver Council. Don't cause trouble for me...and don't hook up with my subordinates."
Shrugging, Anthony stood up, took the note, and walked out the door knowingly.
"Okay, okay, even if they come to me, I won't pay attention."
Click.
Seeing Anthony eager to leave, Sophie sighed after being silent.
The scumbag's promise sounds nice, but who knows how true it is?
"Miss Sophie."
The housekeeper who had appeared behind Cairns appeared silently in the corner of the room and saluted Sophie.
"Um."
Not surprised by the appearance of the middle-aged housekeeper, Sophie nodded and rubbed the gold coins in her hand.
"Why did you choose him?"
Raising her eyebrows, Sophie thought for a while and said:
"Because we know each other very well, we are childhood sweethearts after all."
Looking at the housekeeper's unchanging cold face, she laughed:
"I don't understand why you still choose him after knowing his true nature?"
"The relationship between childhood sweethearts is too familiar, so you can see the disgusting and rotten heart underneath the gorgeous appearance."
"As for why I chose him, it's just because he hasn't rotted so completely."
Moreover.
Sophie smiled, raised her arms as hard as she could, and stretched regardless of appearance.
"I'm not a good person either."
The Queen of the Sea and the Green Tea Han.
"Actually, the two of us match up quite well."
Don't dislike anyone.
After getting to know each other too well, you can still accept each other and just make do with it.
Isn't that what the so-called childhood sweetheart is?
…
…
Ning Feng looked at Jiang Wan who suddenly got out of bed and ran to lock the door after speaking, and silently thought about what would happen next...
"Don't be afraid, you will get used to it."
"After that, we still have many places to check in."
Leaning her back against the door, Jiang Wan showed an evil smile like a little devil.
