It turns out that this is the case, my mother's charm is so great, I sighed secretly, so what if my mother can come back, she is already too old, and she is not as good as the duchess. Will the Duke still like her?
It's hard to say. Besides, mom can't come and destroy other people's families.
Thinking of this, I said: "Your Majesty, this past incident of yours really moved me, but the past has passed. Cherish the life in front of you."
The Duke nodded silently and said: "Thank you for giving me this bell. I will give you a chance to explain what happened to you and Zixue."
I blushed and changed the story of the day.
After hearing this, the Duke said in confusion: "So that's it, you won't lie to me, will you?"
I straightened my face and said: "I swear on the honor of a warrior, if I make false promises..."
The Duke waved his hand to stop me from continuing. He said: "Okay, okay, I can tell what kind of person you are at a glance. Okay, since it is a misunderstanding, you can go to Zixue and explain it clearly. This girl
, she just likes to get into trouble, and sometimes she has a very stubborn temper, so you need to coax her more. This semester is already on vacation, what are your plans?"
I nodded and said: "I want to find a secluded place to practice for a while. Since the battle with Riva, I found that my strength is still far behind, and I must improve to gain a firm foothold here.
."
The Duke had woken up from the sadness just now. Hearing what I said, he showed an expression of approval and said: "You are right to think so. You are just like me back then, very motivated. Moreover, I heard that you
You also have a crazy physique, which is great. However, there is one thing I want to ask you, do you have any goals?"
I was stunned, what is my goal? Yes, what is my goal?
The Duke said: "Everyone must have an ambitious goal of their own. This is the motivation for you to move forward. Do you understand? Just like me at the beginning, my goal was to gain incomparable power, no matter what method I used.
, I got it now. What about you? What is your goal."
My brain is at a loss. Have I ever had a goal? When I was a child, my goal was to become a peerless strong man. But now, do I still just think like this? No, this alone is not enough.
The Duke said: "My child, it is not easy to set a goal. I hope you can think about it carefully during this holiday. If you need a quiet place to practice, I can provide it to you."]
I shook my head and said: "No, thank you. I have decided to leave now. You are very right. I am very confused about my future now and I really need to think about it. If I were here with you, I would not be able to concentrate."
Yes, because I will always be thinking about Zixue, and I may not be able to control myself and go find her."
The Duke said in surprise: "Don't you explain it to Zixue?"
I said, "No, please tell her for me. I'm afraid I won't be able to leave her after seeing her. If our love lasts for a long time, how can we stay together day and night?"
The Duke smiled and said: "You are a teachable boy. Okay, you can go. I hope you will improve when you come back. I look forward to seeing you next time."
I took off the necklace my mother gave me from my neck, handed it to the Duke, and said, "You should recognize this."
The Duke's hands were trembling. He took the necklace and looked at it carefully, and said excitedly: "Of course I know it. This is the betrothal gift I gave to Lingling. How come it is in your hands?"
I sighed and said, "The woman gave it to me as a reward for delivering the message." At this point, my mother's heart-piercing voice seemed to ring in my ears again.
The Duke murmured: "She actually gave this to you. Why is that? It doesn't make sense." Of course he doesn't know that I am actually Lingling's only son.
I said: "Give this to Zixue. Even if I give her a token of love, I will definitely come to marry her when I become successful. I will not come back during the holidays. I want to find someone."
You are right to practice hard in a place where there are no people around, I should set a goal for myself."
The Duke said: "I want to go to the palace to see His Majesty. If His Majesty knows the news about Lingling, he will be very happy." I was shocked. I won't start another war between humans and monsters because of this. Forget it.
This is no longer within my control, what I have to do now is to improve myself as soon as possible.
After bidding farewell to the Duke, I left the study and ran into Zi Yan. She looked at me with hostility and said, "Is dad going to let you go just like that?"
I shrugged helplessly and said, "Then what do you want to do? Kill me or beat me up."
Zi Yan said angrily: "According to my wishes, I will kill you. Hum."
My face darkened and I said, "With your temper, if you don't change it, I'm afraid no one will dare to want you in the future." After that, I turned around and walked outside.
Zi Yan said behind me: "You don't have to worry about whether you marry or not. Are you just going to leave like this? Miss Zixue?"
I stopped and said: "I have explained everything clearly to the Duke, just ask him. Tell Zixue for me that my feelings for her will never change."
After leaving the Duke's Mansion, I felt much relieved. After all, I had completed the task assigned by my mother. What should I do now? Let's go back to the academy. Didn't Teacher Zhuang ask me to find her? When I see her, I will do my own thing.
’s spiritual journey.
The college no longer had the hustle and bustle of the past, and the campus was quiet. I walked to Teacher Zhuang's office and knocked gently on the door. Teacher Zhuang's voice came from inside: "Who is it? Come in."
I opened the door and walked into Teacher Zhuang's office. She seemed to be reading a book and seemed quite relaxed.
"It's you, Lei Xiang, come on, has your body recovered?"
I nodded and said, "Everything has recovered."
Teacher Zhuang smiled and said, "That's good. You performed extremely well in the challenge against Riva this time."
I smiled bitterly and said: "What's so great about it? You still lose, and you don't have the ability to fight back at all."
Teacher Zhuang said: "How could it be? Although you were at a disadvantage at first, but later when you became crazy, you caused a lot of trouble for Riva, shutting up all the guys who were making irresponsible remarks in the grade competition.
He stopped talking and defended the teacher."
Teacher Zhuang stood up, walked aside, and poured me a glass of water.
