Chapter 25 Ruth's Provocation

Li En glanced sideways, and sure enough, Leng Ling walked over wearing a black military uniform.

The straight fabric outlines his slender legs, broad shoulders and narrow waist. Under the black big-brimmed hat, his dark eyes are astonishingly bright.

Looking at that person tenderly, a faint love appeared in Li En's eyes.

It is such a person that makes oneself fall in love like crazy.

Ralph ran over with excitement on his face, saluted Leng Ling at attention and said, "Your Highness! You are here! Everything has been prepared and we can set off immediately."

Ever since he knew that he could accompany Leng Ling to send Ruth back to China, he had been extremely excited, and now that he had Li En's entourage, he was even more delighted.

"Sergeant Ralph, thank you for your hard work."

Ralph was like a big boy. He touched his head and smiled shyly, "Your Highness, you are too polite. I will go to the car first."

"Go ahead."

Leng Ling walked up to a few people and said with a pleasant metallic voice, "Madam, please wait, we can set off."

Ruth raised her eyebrows slightly, turned and left.

Leng Ling's dark eyes scanned the surroundings, and Leng Ling frowned slightly, "Where's Roy?"

"have no idea."

"Let's get in the car first."

"yes."

Li En followed Leng Ling, and the two of them walked towards the car parked at the door.

"Your Highness, please wait."

Leng Ling's eyes were dim. He turned around and met those gray pupils.

"Sir, what else can I do?"

Sharda smiled and said, "Cosell, I will manage it well for you. I hope you can fully convey the president's wishes to Prime Minister Karl."

Leng Ling raised his chin, with unquestionable perseverance in his eyes, "This is my responsibility, and I will do my best."

"I wish you a safe journey and a safe return."

"nature."

Without hesitation, Leng Ling turned around, carrying the light fragrance of orchids in the wind.

A young figure rushed over, and Roy shouted, "Your Highness!"

Without stopping in his black high-top military boots, Leng Ling walked straight to the car, opened the door and got in.

Roy also got into the car, and the next moment, the car set off.

Watching the two cars leave, Sharda quickly returned to the office.

He picked up the phone and dialed a series of numbers. After the call rang several times, a gloomy baritone voice came through the receiver, "I'm Leng Xiao."

"President, it's me, they've already set off."

"Very good, Kessel will leave it to you."

"yes."

Sharda put down the phone and stared at the receiver that had a busy signal. A hint of coldness quietly slipped through her gray eyes.

The fun is about to begin.

Kossel Train Station

The car stopped in front of a train that was about to start, and a group of people got out of the car.

The officer in charge of welcoming them had already been on standby. When he saw Leng Ling and others appearing, he immediately stepped forward to greet them, "Your Highness, we are ready and can set off immediately."

Leng Ling nodded, stepped up the steps, and entered the carriage, followed by Ralph and Roy.

Parker stretched out his hand and said, "Madam, be careful of the steps."

Ruth glanced at Lean calmly, her brown phoenix eyes turning slightly, "I want Lieutenant Colonel Lean to help me."

An uninhibited sneer appeared at the corner of his heroic mouth. Lean stretched out his hand to hold Ruth's black velvet-gloved hand, and moved his lips slightly, "Madam, just tell me if you have anything to say."

"Take that letter."

"I see."

"Woo——"

Accompanied by white mist and the sound of the train's whistle, the train bound for Valencia finally started.

**********

On the swaying carriage, in the luxury box, Leng Ling and Ruth sat face to face. From the moment they set off until now, they had never spoken a word.

Ruth looked at the young man in front of her, her beautiful phoenix eyes flashing with an inexplicable light.

Leng Ling, on the other hand, avoided the other person's appraising gaze, looked out the car window, and pursed her thin lips.

"Your Highness, there is still a long way to go before the end. Do we two have to stay in a daze like this?"

Leng Ling withdrew his gaze, glanced at Ruth lightly, and opened his lips slightly, "Madam, I'm not forcing you to sit like this all the time, but for the sake of your safety, I suggest it's better this way."

"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness, but I feel very safe with you. Unless someone wants my life on the train, but you will not let such a thing happen. Because, if anything happens to me, I will be safe."

It has something to do with you."

"Indeed."

Ruth's extremely fine eyebrows were raised, "So, Dear Your Highness Leng Ling, can I go out and smoke a cigarette?"

"You can smoke it here."

"All right."

Ruth took out a slender lady's cigarette, lit it, and took a puff gracefully. Then she exhaled, and a light mist mixed with the smell of tobacco spread in the box, and the smell was choking.

Leng Ling never smoked, and even when he was with Li En, he tried his best to avoid him every time he smoked. Smelling this choking smell, his throat would inevitably feel dry.

But he only frowned slightly, and did not show any dissatisfaction even though he knew that the other party did this deliberately, but looked out the window again.

Before you knew it, the train had entered Arsinore.

At this time, it was close to noon, and the sun shone through the thick clouds onto the black land.

Looking at the devastated place, Leng Ling's handsome face gradually became filled with desolation.

"Your Highness Leng Ling, do you hate Valencians?"

Leng Ling's eyes were cold, "I hate anyone who invades my homeland."

The vermilion lips formed a strange smile, "Then, if I tell you that Lieutenant Colonel Lien's father also participated in the war of invasion of Lanson, will you still accept him?"

The deep black eyes suddenly shrank, and Leng Ling's hands on his legs clenched tightly.

"Your Highness, if the son of an invader becomes Lansen's royal knight, what will people from other countries think of this if word spreads about it? What will you Lansen people think of you?"

"He has proven his loyalty with his actions. Even if his father is an invader, it has nothing to do with him."

"I have also heard about Lieutenant Colonel Lien. He has defeated the Valencian army many times and made great military exploits. Having said that, who can guarantee that he has no purpose in approaching you? Your Highness Leng Ling

, what can he gain by becoming Lanson's knight and working for you? Have you ever thought about this question? "

Leng Ling turned his head and looked directly at Ruth, "He said he would always follow me and never betray me."

"Tsk," Ruth shook her head, showing regret in her eyes, "Loyalty without purpose is never trustworthy, especially for a man like him."
