Chapter 1 There are no good people in this world 2
Dinner time is always the hardest. As the Red Princess's personal knight, I am the only outsider allowed to have dinner with the Miyagi family, but this is really not an honor.
In the restaurant that was as big as a small conference room, I sat next to Yaoyao and ate the food on the plate quietly. Yaoyao's appetite was not very good today, which was no wonder. Anyone who had only vegetable salad for dinner for ten consecutive years would not have a good appetite. As the princess of the Red Knight branch, keeping in shape was a compulsory course for Yaoyao, so her dinner today was still vegetable salad - a vegetable salad that even I lost my appetite after seeing it.
While Madam Gongcheng was not paying attention, I secretly put a piece of ham from my plate on Yaoyao's plate, but she immediately returned the ham to me. I looked at her in surprise and saw that she smiled at me with a bad look on her face.
Suddenly, I felt extremely heartbroken, and I finally understood - the reason why she had a poor appetite today must not be the vegetable salad.
Yaoyao's father died in a plane accident when she was ten years old. Also killed in the accident was Takamiya Rinto, the father of Takamiya Suzaku and Takamiya Yunque. Since then, the business of the Takamiya and Gongcheng families has basically been managed by one person, and that person is - "What's wrong? Yaoyao, don't you have a good appetite today?" A dignified middle-aged man asked.
He was wearing a dark blue casual suit made of hand-cut flannel. His hair was completely gray and combed back. His face was almost wrinkle-free, making it difficult to tell his actual age.
He is Takamiya Naoto, who is already 60 years old this year. He is used to bringing Hibari and Suzaku to have dinner with us every weekend. Mrs. Miyagi, Yaoyao, and me, sometimes even the seriously ill grandmother Miyagi would attend, but he never brought his wife, the current queen!
"No." Yaoyao shook her head, but Takamiya Naoto didn't take his eyes off her. Inexplicably, I don't like Takamiya Naoto. He is the Queen's husband, the CEO of the Queen Company, and the honorary dean of TK Academy. I should respect and love him, but perhaps because I sensed Yaoyao's resistance to him, I also disliked him very much.
"Yaoyao, don't you like dinner?" He smiled slightly, and seemed quite satisfied after seeing Yaoyao's painful smile. He nodded and said, "Yaoyao, don't be sad about what happened today. Yun Que will return to the family. He has no ability to leave the family."
"Uncle, I'm not sad for Yun Que, I just..." To hide the pain in her heart, Yao Yao forced a smile and said, "I just caught a cold."
"Don't worry about Skylark, dear." He smiled again, and his pale blue eyes looked at me inadvertently, which made my body temperature drop a few degrees. He was so scary!
"He thinks he can do something? In fact, he can do nothing. A Royal Knight with a negative score cannot exercise any power of a Royal Knight. If the Grand Knights who support the Royal Knights are also Knights with negative scores, the result will be even more difficult to predict..."
Snapped!
Suddenly, Yaoyao put down the knife and fork in her hand.
"Yaoyao, are you full?" Gao Gong Shang Ren suddenly asked loudly at this time. Yaoyao took my hand and stood up with me to salute him: "I am very satisfied."
"Then don't leave yet." Takamiya Naoto smiled, put down the knife and fork in his hand, and said, "I notified Yunque and told him to come here for dinner today no matter what."
"Skylark..." Yaoyao called out Skylark's name with a little surprise. All the muscles in my body tightened instantly, and I felt the huge pressure coming from the direction of Gao Gong Shang Ren.
"Skylark will come back." Takamiya Shangren smiled, stood up, and waved to the servant to open the door of the restaurant. Then, in a series of door opening sounds, the door of the restaurant was opened, and the door of the corridor was also opened... One door after another was opened, and the corridor leading from the restaurant to the outside was wide and magnificent.
Like a strange movie scene, a black dot appeared at the end of the corridor at the right time. I stared at the black dot and suddenly remembered a lot of past events.
In my memory, Yaoyao was always surrounded by servants, teachers and many people who called her "Princess" and took care of her, but there were only two people who called her Yaoyao, cried with her, laughed with her, and caught fireflies with her in the woods in the summer: one was me, and the other was Gao Gong Yunlark.
To Yaoyao, Skylark is special, there is no doubt about that.
A black dot appeared at the end of the corridor—Skylark had indeed appeared.
