Chapter 26: Roy's Tangle

There was an undercurrent in the black eyes, "Mrs. Ruth, I advise you not to use your words to sow discord between me and him. You should think about how to face your Prime Minister when you go back."

She flicked the cigarette ashes with her slender fingertips, and Ruth sneered, "Your Highness Leng Ling, are you really unwilling to cooperate with me? After taking care of Karl, you Lanson can also escape from the war. Isn't this what you most expect?

Did you see it?"

"I have already said that I have no intention of participating in your political struggle. No matter what you say, I will not agree."

"Okay," Ruth's cheeks moved slightly, showing no displeasure at all. She took a few puffs, put out the cigarette butt, got up and walked out.

Parker, who was standing outside, immediately followed him. Lien wanted to follow, but was stopped by Leng Ling, "Come here."

Li En stared secretly, opened the door of the box and walked in.

Leng Ling looked out the window at the still black land with dull eyes, "How long will it take to reach the destination?"

"About ten hours," said Lean, looking at the cup of black tea that had already cooled down on the table, "the tea has gone cold."

He reached for the cup and said, "I'll pour you a hot cup."

Leng Ling reached out and pressed Li En's arm, "No need."

Li En held Leng Ling's cold hand and kneaded it gently, "What's wrong with you? Why are your hands so cold? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

"I'm fine," Leng Ling shook his head and wrinkled his beautiful eyebrows, "The smell of smoke is a bit unpleasant."

"Let me accompany you for a walk outside."

"Okay," Leng Ling nodded lightly, stood up and walked out, but his feet suddenly slipped and his body fell backwards.

"!"

Her slender body lay on the man's broad chest, and her waist was held tightly by big hands, so Leng Ling didn't fall down.

"Are you okay?"

"It's okay," Leng Ling rubbed his swollen forehead and leaned on his thick chest. However, when he saw the woman walking towards him, his body suddenly stiffened.

He broke away from the man's arms and subconsciously took a few steps forward to distance himself from the other man.

Ruth curled her lips, then walked over as if she hadn't seen him, pretending to be very concerned and asked, "Your Highness Leng Ling, what's wrong with you?"

"I accidentally slipped. I'll go out first."

Leng Ling adjusted her mood and passed by him without changing her expression.

Ruth shrugged, returned to the box, poured a glass of wine, and drank alone, very leisurely.

The carriage was very quiet, with only the dull metal sound of the wheels and rails colliding with each other. Thinking about her next plan, Ruth looked at the window that reflected her better appearance, with nostalgia in her eyes.

Russell, wait for me, I'll be back soon.

**********

As night falls, everything is quiet.

On the vast plain, a black train was traveling at high speed.

Roy and Ralph were sitting in the carriage, bored.

Roy looked at the dark scenery outside the car window, feeling uneasy.

Just yesterday, I received a call from Admiral Kaman, ordering him to find a way to steal the president's autograph letter and blame him on Ryan Hans.

Since the train incident ended, Roy's attitude towards Lean seems to have changed slightly. After all, the other person once saved his life, and he didn't take it to heart when he and Colonel Cather interrogated him overnight.

Roy felt vaguely guilty towards him.

So when he received this order, he felt a little reluctant, but no matter how reluctant he was, he had to complete the task.

The letter was in His Highness Leng Ling's box. He didn't know what to do to get it. What if he discovered it?

"Lieutenant Roy, what's wrong with you?"

Roy looked up and saw Ralph looking at him with concern, and quickly shook his head, "I'm fine."

Ralph smiled and said, "It's okay. If you have something on your mind, you can tell me. I don't know how to do anything else. It's okay to listen to others."

This Ralph should be about the same age as himself when he is young, but he lives so easily and freely, I really envy him.

If it weren't for the fact that his family and fiancée were in Kaman's hands, I would definitely be as carefree as him now.

Seeing Roy looking at him without expressing his opinion, Ralph felt a little embarrassed and quickly found a topic, "That Second Lieutenant Roy, are you from the military headquarters in Sarat?"

Roy nodded, "Yes."

"I heard from my father that the officers in the military department are all elites, much better than the local soldiers like us. Moreover, the weapons and equipment in the military department are also the most advanced in Lanson, isn't it?

?”

Roy was stunned for a moment and said nothing.

This young man, he doesn't know anything.

Ralph asked again, "Lieutenant Roy, am I telling the truth?"

Seeing the bright light in Ralph's eyes, Roy couldn't bear to destroy the beautiful world view established in this young man's heart, so he could only nod and said, "Yes, the soldiers of Lanson Military Department are brave and adept at fighting and are invincible. It is for us to learn from

example."

"As expected, Second Lieutenant Roy, if there is a chance, can you take me to visit the military headquarters in the future? I want to learn from them."

Roy said helplessly, "Of course, you just need to apply to His Highness Leng Ling to return to Sarat with him."

"Really? That's great," Ralph was extremely happy, like a child who got candy, smiling all over his face, "I'm going to ask His Highness now."

"Sergeant Ralph, His Highness should be resting soon at this time. It's better not to disturb him. I will mention this matter to him when I return to Kesel after finishing the work. I believe that Leng Ling

Your Highness will definitely agree."

"Then it's up to you, Second Lieutenant Roy. It's getting late. I'm going to bed first. You should go to bed quickly too."

"kindness."

Roy turned his head, his handsome face clouded.

Then he got up and walked out.

Walking in the swaying carriage, Roy came to Leng Ling's box with a cup of black tea.

Standing at the door of the box, Roy hesitated for a while whether to knock on the door or not. A black figure appeared behind him.

"what are you up to?"

Roy was startled and quickly turned around.

The tall black shadow blocked the light above his head, but he responded immediately, "I will bring tea to His Highness."

Seeing the teacup in Roy's hand, Lien frowned slightly, "I'm here, you can go back."

Roy looked at Lien motionless, standing there without leaving.

"Lieutenant Roy, didn't you hear what I said?"

Roy turned around and strode away.

Lean looked at the direction Roy left. After confirming that the other party had left, he looked at the steaming black tea, and his handsome face was filled with unspeakable complex emotions.
