Rhode couldn't help but say the classic line as he looked at the girl wrapped in silk.
"Cry and scream! No one will save you even if you scream your lungs out!”
"…" Rhode didn't respond with timid sobs, but a long silence. The entire room was filled with an awkward atmosphere.
"Hah! Hah! "Ha…" Lenice suddenly burst into laughter and hit the ground with her head. The tense atmosphere just now had completely disappeared. "Hey, isn't your friend a little stupid? Didn't you try to persuade him?”
The golden-haired lady looked at the dumbfounded Liu Zhu and asked with a smile. Liu Zhu nodded as if she was serious.
"Yes, he's such a willful person, so it's hard for me too. Please cooperate with our work, Miss Lenice.”
"Oh? Your job? If you want to rob me, you can take everything here. I won't stop you.”Hearing this, Lenice chuckled. " If I can establish a relationship with the 'Clock Tower's rookie' Mr. Rhode just by relying on these trash, I reckon that the nobles of the Clock Tower will be envious of me, right?”
"Tsk, boring. And Liuzhu, can you not be so mean when you're doing serious business?”Rhode said in a defeated tone. Only at this moment could he tell that he was only a 15-year-old youth and not an old monster who had lived for countless years.
Perhaps it was because he had changed to a young body, but his cold heart was gradually recovering. The indifference in his personality was fading away, and his rotten heart wrote the chapter of a young man.
" I'm just stating the facts. You're stupid and arrogant, and you like to put on airs…"
Looking at the defeated look on Rhode's face, Liu Zhu's expression became even more joyful. "Really, it's really hard to be your puppet.”
"Tsk…Looks like I'm still too gentle with your 'care'.”
" I'm not sure," Rhode said softly, his voice filled with coldness. Liu Zhu's face turned pale as she recalled some unpleasant memories.
"Hey! Don't ignore me, you two!" Seeing that the situation was getting weirder and weirder, Lenice said anxiously. "Hurry up and let go of me! Didn't Mr. Rhode say that he wanted to talk about serious matters? Why did you put me like this!!!”
"You lack training, Miss Lenice.”Rhode laughed mockingly. "Do you want to be educated by me…I mean to temper your temperament. Yes, I guarantee that you won't be so impetuous again.”
"Only a ghost would accept it! Do you think I'm as stupid as you?!"
Then, like a wild cat whose tail had been stepped on, Lenice roared in a childish voice. "You must be planning to do something very overboard!”
"Hey…why do I feel like you're thinking about something weird?”
Rhode's expression was dull and he couldn't help but smile bitterly. "Tsk, so the education of the Azizorti family is so up-to-date? It was really the world's morals that were declining day by day, making one sigh with regret.”
"Don't blame the Akizorti family! Be careful that the ancestors will open the coffin and drag you in!”Seeing this, Lenice said unhappily. "This is just a personal hobby. Although I'm a noble, it's not like I can't accept advanced things like the Internet.”
" Pardon my ignorance…" Rhode smiled awkwardly, but his tone was playful."Let's end the conversation here. I think you're very unhappy, Miss Lenice Hermelo Azizorti.”
Rhode sat on the sofa while Liuzhu suddenly appeared beside him and served him a cup of fragrant black tea. He seemed to have transformed from a gentle and easy-going young man into a haggling merchant.
"Eh?" Looking at Rhode's sudden change in tone, the blonde missy, Lenice, was stunned.
"I need the support of 'Aqipolude'. As a price, I can help you cut through the thorns and eliminate all the people who are blocking your way to the throne of the family head.”
" Is that so…" Hearing the chilling words, Lenice snapped out of her daze. She looked at Rhode fearfully and calmly pondered about the chips she should throw on the gambling table.
However, this astute young lady didn't realize that she had instinctively believed Rhode after the fun. She didn't even consider whether she should reject him and started to think about how to complete this deal with him.
"Then, what do I have to pay?”Lenice said solemnly. " I don't believe that 'support' can be exchanged for your help. Tell me the real price.”
" What I need is very simple. First, you need to sign a 'self-enforcing testimony' with me. On the premise that we won't hurt each other, you will help me withstand the pressure from the upper echelons of the Clock Tower and protect my property appropriately. I will also give you sufficient compensation. Although Aqipolude isn't destitute, I don't mind adding icing on the cake.”
Rhode analyzed the pros and cons for Lenice with a solemn expression. Both of them ignored the fact that Lenice was still wrapped up like a Silkworm Baby.
" Secondly, I need Sir Ken's corpse and relics. The magic imprint is an exception, but the corpse has to be intact and the magic circuit cannot be damaged. I also need all of his research materials and magic materials worth about two billion pounds. I think this is not difficult for the Aqipolud family that has been passed down for nine generations.”
" It's a very generous offer. Although it sacrifices the family's interests, it guarantees that the family can advance further under my leadership..." the young miss said softly, her young face full of pride. "That's exactly what I want. Then sign a self-enforcement certificate.”
As she spoke, she wanted to shake hands with Rhode to show that they had a pleasant cooperation. However, she realized that she was still wrapped up in a silly Silkworm Baby's appearance and couldn't help but shout angrily.
"Let go of me first! You bastard!"
