Chapter 45: Speculations
"trouble……"
Sitting upright in his seat, feeling the gazes coming from all around, as well as the faint hostility contained in them, Chen Heng could not help but frown.
Although he didn't know why, Orliman's actions did cause him considerable trouble.
The other party's previous actions not only did not give him any good impression, but also easily led to bad rumors, which would tarnish Chen Heng's reputation and cause him to suffer losses.
As for having wild thoughts and thinking that the other person likes him or something like that, Chen Heng would never think about such things and would actively avoid them.
Unlike what most people think, for Chen Heng, having a relationship with a princess is the biggest trouble.
In this world, everything has value. Whatever you want, you need to pay a price in exchange.
If Oliman had offered a fair price and asked Chen Heng to swear allegiance, Chen Heng would have considered it.
But if you get entangled with them or have some kind of relationship with them, it means you have passively entered the other party's camp.
No matter what happened in the end, by that time, there is no doubt that Orliman's enemies would subconsciously classify Chen Heng into Orliman's camp.
This is equivalent to a passive choice, and it is a free one.
Apart from some ambiguous stories with Princess Orliman, nothing else was gained.
Some people may be quite interested in this matter. After all, it is a rare experience to be able to have something happen with a princess and create some romantic stories.
But Chen Heng was not interested in this at all.
People are people.
In Chen Heng's opinion, apart from the many halos around her, the so-called Princess Kutu is just an ordinary woman, no different from a normal woman in some aspects.
Nothing unusual.
What's more, he may not be the only one.
The other party is so adept at this kind of tactics that he must have hooked up with many people before.
If the other party treats him like this now, will he not treat others like this in the future?
Looking at the passionate and extremely beautiful Oliman in the center of the banquet table in front of him, Chen Heng had a calm expression and shook his head secretly.
After taking a look, he turned his gaze away from Orliman and never looked at her again. He just looked to the side without looking away.
As time passed, the atmosphere of the banquet became increasingly lively.
A group of dancers performed beautifully to liven up the atmosphere.
These dancers were all very beautiful, with delicate features and tall figures. It was obvious at first glance that they were specially selected.
The dance skirts they wear are also very thin, and some private parts are faintly visible. As their dance moves continue to unfold, it gives people a very unique feeling.
Many people were staring at the dancers with their eyes wide open.
When the banquet was in full swing, the smell of alcohol filled the entire hall. Someone laughed softly, walked up to and casually hugged a dancer, holding her directly in his arms.
There were many people who did this, but Princess Orliman turned a blind eye to it. She even had a smile on her face and joined the feast in her long dress.
Due to her status, no one dared to treat her like a dancer, but there were many people who danced with her.
However, while relaxing, Oliman also shifted some of his attention and secretly watched Chen Heng.
I saw Chen Heng sitting alone in the corner, and he was still sitting there with his body straight.
At this moment, under the dual effects of wine and environment, most of the others were already in disarray, but he was still sitting upright, his whole body sitting there like a straight sword, appearing very eye-catching.
It is in stark contrast to the people around him.
Oliman couldn't help but be a little surprised. Just as she was about to step forward, she saw a small figure sneaking forward , walking towards Chen Heng.
This was a young girl, no more than fourteen or fifteen years old. She looked somewhat similar to Orliman, yet also very different.
Looking at the girl, Oliman was stunned, and then he couldn't help shaking his head secretly.
"Hello... Hello..."
Vinar lifted her skirt and walked in front of Chen Heng. Then she mustered up her courage, looked at Chen Heng and spoke.
"Do you remember me?"
She plucked up her courage and looked at Chen Heng seriously.
"It's you?"
Looking at Vinar in front of him, Chen Heng was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and smiled: "What are you doing here?"
"Is there an elder visiting here?"
He spoke softly, saying so.
Vinal was stunned, then nodded quickly.
Standing there, she looked at Chen Heng, not knowing what to say for a moment.
The scene was so awkward.
Chen Heng smiled and said, "Anyway, sit down first, or you will be too tired."
"If you don't mind, sit here."
He looked at Vinal with a very gentle expression, like a polite gentleman. His every move made people feel good about him.
Compared to Vinar, Chen Heng seems to be much more talkative.
In fact, he has always been like this , very good at talking and likes to communicate.
In just a short time, they started chatting and talking about their own stories, looking very happy.
"My hometown is in the south. Every autumn, it is full of purple flowers and a kind of wild fruit."
Chen Heng smiled and said, "How about I give you some next time if there's a chance?"
Vinal smiled and nodded.
"If you can, please give me your address."
Chen Heng's expression was as gentle as ever, and he said softly, "Next time, when my father's motorcade arrives, I will have someone send it to you."
Vinal's expression hesitated for a moment.
Oliman did not say anything, so that she could not reveal her identity.
However, those around her who knew her identity would change their attitude towards her. No matter who they were, they would become respectful and cautious, just like they did towards Orliman.
Subconsciously, she didn't want Chen Heng to become like that.
So in the end, she hesitated for a moment before she said to Chen Heng: "I usually live with Brother Kaili. If you want to find me, just send the things there."
"so……"
Chen Heng was stunned, then smiled again: "Okay."
Vinar didn't know that even though she thought she had concealed it well, in fact, by now, Chen Heng had guessed her identity almost exactly.
This is not something that is difficult to guess.
Although there are many nobles in Kutu City, there are actually not many top-level ones.
With Chen Heng's personality, he had already found out all the information about those people in Kutu City long time ago.
Among this group of people, there are not many who meet the requirements of Vinar at the moment, so it is very easy to guess, but there is too little information to confirm it immediately.
But now, after what happened today, through recent experiences, and some information that Vinar inadvertently revealed, Chen Heng has basically guessed her true identity.
Princess Orliman's sister, Vinar, now the third in line to the throne of Kutu.
