Chapter 6 There is no worst, only worse 1
"Do you know that someone just sent an email to my mailbox, suggesting that the main title of the school website this week should be changed to 'Fight for true love, Princess Red, I support you'?" Qiu Qianxun said with a focused expression, holding the phone.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, I had no choice but to ask him, "So the main title of the school website now is 'Fight for true love, Princess Red, I support you'?"
"Of course not!" Qiu Qianyuan grinned, looking very proud, "It's 'Streaking! Gao Gong Zhuque vowed to take back the Red Princess, but doesn't he have a girlfriend? A love triangle?' That's it!"
I don’t want to know who Takamiya Suzaku’s girlfriend is at all. What’s going on?
"Shibai, please stop making trouble, okay?" Suzaku's weak voice came from the other end of the room. His weakness was probably related to the karaoke he sang until about 2 a.m. last night.
Yes!
After saying the bold words "If we can't turn the situation around within a month, we will run naked", the first thing the three knights of the Red Knights branch did was not to lock themselves in a small room to think about plans, but to have a dinner together with their respective guards, and then sing karaoke, and have a very happy and lively day.
And they had a very reasonable excuse for going out, their excuse was... On the other side of the house, Osto looked completely hungover, slumped on the sofa like mud, hugging a pillow and sleeping with his drool dripping out.
This is no wonder, because the excuse for their dinner and singing last night was "Thank you, Osto, for forgiving Suzaku for his disfigurement", so Osto, one of the protagonists, drank a lot of wine alone last night, just like the drunk uncle on TV. Moreover, he is a super "microphone master", and after getting drunk, he "transforms" into a passionate beach youth, and a "hug demon" who hugs everyone he sees.
I really doubt it. He still has a wound on his face. He ate a lot of things that injured people can't eat, drank a lot of alcohol, and laughed too enthusiastically and happily for too long, which caused the wound to rupture. Will his wound really heal? Will there really be no scar there? He doesn't seem to care at all. Does he think he is so handsome that he needs a scar to add a sense of vicissitudes?
oops……
What the hell am I worrying about! The key point now is, after saying so many touching words, the three people in the Red Knight Branch, one was in a daze, one was playing with his iPhone 9, and one was sleeping. Have the three of them really thought seriously about how to save the Red Knight Branch?
Can the three of them really save the Red Knights branch? I thought about this question seriously, and couldn't help but look at Suzaku with a reproachful look and said, "Suzaku, you've already used one day out of the 30 days."
He looked at me and was about to say something, but Qiu Qianyuan next to him began to imitate the narration of a stage play: "She was originally the princess's confidant, but now she is beginning to worry about Suzaku. Why is that? Since when did she start to have that man in her heart? She has begun to think about him..."
"Shibai, that's enough!" Zhuque and I said to Qiu Qianyuan almost at the same time. He smiled and stepped aside. I rolled my eyes and looked at him, but my face couldn't help but blush. Just as he said, when start to worry about Zhuque?
"Hey! Tomorrow, I have something serious to tell you." Zhuque suddenly looked at me seriously, and I looked at him, thinking that he had already had an idea and just waited until now to say it.
"What?"
"Please call me Suzaku-sama! Or Master, or Reverend Suzaku-sama, or Prince Takamiya! Do you understand ?"
I'm worried about him. I must have buried my ancestors in the wrong place.
"Well, Master Gao Gong, shouldn't you do something serious?" I said in a bad mood, and a guy named Qiu Qianyuan beside me whispered in agreement: "Suzaku, you are so mean to her. You really don't know how to please a girl."
Qiu Shibai, you...
"I think he's already very good at pleasing girls!" A voice suddenly said. Before I could figure out who it was, the hair on my body stood up.
"Didn't I tell you that this girl has no need to stay in TK? She is no longer useful to the princess or to us. Don't you know how many people apply for TK's degree every year, Suzaku?"
That voice, to me, is authority, the power that controls my life.
I was fearless, but I had no resistance to that voice. I didn't dare to look back, and I only heard Qiu Qianyuan beside me shouting, "Morning, Dean."
"Good morning, great knight Qiu Qianyuan."
Listening to the voice of the person behind me, I felt a chill running down my spine. I am no longer useful, to the princess, to T K?
In front of this cold-blooded man, I felt angry, but also felt more helplessly how insignificant I was.
"Come here." Suddenly, Zhuque waved at me. I looked at him and walked towards him without even thinking.
Standing behind him, I lowered my head and took a look out of the corner of my eye. Takamiya Naoto was wearing a suit that he would wear on formal occasions. His silver hair matched the shiny leather shoes on his feet. He looked radiant and majestic.
He stared at Suzaku beside me, not like an uncle looking at his nephew, but like a majestic king looking at his disobedient subjects. Suzaku looked at him silently, his expression calm and numb, and for a moment, the rich expressions on his face seemed to rest.
"It seems that you are really protective of her, so can I understand that you will ignore my orders again and leave her in TK?" Takamiya Naoto said coldly, with a strange smile faintly visible on his face.
In the silence, I could feel two forces wrestling with each other. Am I not the most insignificant person in this academy? Am I not the one that no one cares about? Suddenly, the words my mother said to me on the phone came to my mind. I am insignificant to TK, but TK is everything to me.
So, when I saw Suzaku confronting Takamiya Hisato for me, suddenly I was a little moved, as if at this moment I had also become a princess, with knights fighting for me.
"Yes." After a long time, or maybe not long after, Suzaku finally said to Takamiya Naoto, "As the top knight of the Red Knights branch, if I can't even protect a little girl, I don't need to do this job."
"Do you know what your biggest problem is?" Takamiya Naoto sneered, raised his head, looked down at Suzaku, and said slowly.
"What is it?"
"You have misunderstood the definition of a great knight. Just like what Yaoyao asked you that day, what is the duty of a great knight?" Takamiya Naoto sneered and stared at Suzaku. The scene at the lake that day reappeared, and I remember Suzaku's answer was -
Protect the princess.
"It is to protect the princess!" The same answer came out of Takamiya Naoto's mouth. He stared at Suzaku with a cold and disdainful expression.
"This is TK, a TK that exists for the Queen's Game. Now is the time when the old Queen is about to step down and a new round of games is about to begin, but you have made a mistake in what you should do. 588 knights in the Red Knight House? Do any of them mean anything to you?"
Staring at Suzaku, Gao Gong Shang Ren said loudly: "No matter who leaves, there are hundreds of people waiting in line to fill in. They are insignificant, and the woman next to you is also insignificant."
That's not the case, that's not the case! I don't know what the correct answer is, but I instinctively feel that it's not right, Dean, this is not right.
However, I am not qualified to talk to him. I am so insignificant that I can only stand beside Suzaku, feeling his every breath and heartbeat, waiting for him to fight alone for all of us.
"Protecting the princess and making her the queen is the only thing a great knight should do! Protecting your knights, haha..." Takamiya Naoto laughed, his voice was so annoying, "This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. Suzaku, when did you become as stupid as that commoner Cisse?"
"Dean Gao Gong..." Qiu Qianyuan smiled and wanted to say something. Suddenly, Gao Gong Shangren glared at him fiercely and said, "Great Knight Qiu Qianyuan, if you want me to keep your condition a secret and maintain your status as a great knight, then step down."
"Dean, you..." A fierce expression appeared on Qiu Qianyuan's face for the first time, but he gritted his teeth and finally retreated.
"Qianyuan, your condition? What happened to you?" Suzaku immediately became worried, but Gao Gong Shangren interrupted him and said, "Suzaku, although you disappoint me terribly, I still have a way out for you. This time, you just need to do what I say. Yaoyao is destined to become the queen, and as her husband, you will be in charge of the entire TK and the Queen Company."
"I..." Zhuque suddenly turned around and asked coldly, "I'm really curious about what your plan is."
"My plan..." Takamiya Naoto laughed, and this time, his laugh was extremely proud.
