The Seventh Base

Chapter 686: Chapter 81 Zero, do you believe in the feelings between us?_2

“He didn’t come.” Princess Elizabeth said softly, hoping that since no one knew the gentleman’s identity, it wouldn’t cause him any trouble.

She wondered if the gentleman would blame her when he found out about this.

Being mistaken for the gentleman, Princess Elizabeth surprisingly didn’t feel disgusted.

“On such an important day, your boyfriend didn’t show up?” King Richard said, “Are you keeping secrets from daddy?”

“Dad, it’s not that fast,” Princess Elizabeth spoke.

“Alright, when you two are ready, let me meet him. I’m curious to see what kind of outstanding young man could make Elizabeth turn down so many excellent suitors,” King Richard said with a smile.

On Lucas Star, thinking was quite progressive. Even for royal children, there was no issue with free love, of course, as long as the other party didn’t negatively impact the Royal Family’s image.

King Richard had also paid attention to yesterday’s events, a genius student from Lucas University, capable of sweeping through the Temple Knights and protecting Elizabeth. Although his real identity was unknown, even if he came from common birth, being in Lucas University with such talent wouldn’t affect the Royal Family’s image.

Love is not marriage.

When it comes to marriage discussions in the future, it will be taken more seriously. At that time, birth might be considered.

Ever since Princess Elizabeth stepped out, Nanming Huowu had been watching her – her noble and elegant demeanor, her effortless grace, her exquisitely beautiful face, her supreme lineage. Elizabeth was born to be the apex unreachable by all.

For a woman like Princess Elizabeth, what sort of man would her lover be?

A guardian knight?

In this, there seemed to be yet another story.

Envy brews for the love between a princess and a prince, but the romance between a princess and a knight is equally charming.

Elizabeth neither admitted nor denied, but in the eyes of the public, her silence was taken as acquiescence.

Ize and Carter, who were always following, exchanged glances after hearing the words of King Richard and Elizabeth, their hearts bleeding.

Elizabeth had tacitly agreed…

Xu Mo, that scoundrel!!!

They wanted to slash him with their swords.

Although they knew Elizabeth was bluffing, after all, how could she be in love with Xu Mo without even knowing his true identity? She could only use Xu Mo as a shield.

But why couldn’t the shield be one of them?

Ize and Carter would have been more than willing to be that shield.

Elizabeth’s lack of denial meant she had a favorable impression of the ‘gentleman’ in her heart.

The scoundrel, he dared to make a move on Elizabeth!

Clearly, Xu Mo had gone too far!

Now, how would this end?

Soon everyone on Lucas Star would know, it would spread throughout the Lucas Star Capital, and Lucas University was probably already buzzing with the news.

And now that the Royal Family and many nobles knew, this…

Should they just let Xu Mo simply disappear, never to see Elizabeth again? Pretend he never existed?

Ye Qingdie was also stunned, she had been keeping an eye on Xu Mo and naturally knew about yesterday’s events.

Princess Elizabeth claimed she was in love, and with a guardian knight?

Of course, she knew who the guardian knight was.

Ye Qingdie suddenly showed a smile, but it was a smile that held a certain intriguing depth.

She knew that someone was about to get a beating again.

Now, the whole Lucas Star knew, and it was time to see how that guy would deal with it.

King Richard had wanted to give his daughter, Elizabeth, a grand adult ceremony, and it seemed he truly managed to. Although the reason it became so grand was due to Elizabeth herself, the ceremony had a bigger impact than he had imagined.

Now, the entire Capital of Lucas Star was calling out to find Princess Elizabeth’s boyfriend!

…

Lucas University, Library.

Xu Mo, engrossed in his book, sneezed and muttered in annoyance, who’s thinking of me now?

He glanced around; instead of reading, many in the library were watching the live broadcast on their Communicators. Xu Mo cursed silently, they weren’t focusing on their studies.

However, he also knew that today was Elizabeth’s adult ceremony, an event with such influence was good news for Blue Star Energy Technology Group.

“Shit…”

“Ahhh!”

“Damn thief, stealing my goddess.”

The Library suddenly exploded into noisy uproar.

“???” Xu Mo looked around at the crowd, none of whom were reading anymore.

This made Xu Mo reveal a strange expression. Had something big happened?

“What’s going on?” someone asked.

“Princess Elizabeth made an official announcement.” Someone lifted their head, feeling despondent, the Princess was in love.

“Official announcement?” A girl asked: “In love? With whom?”

All put down their books and started discussing.

Princess Elizabeth was in love?

Xu Mo revealed a hint of surprise; she had secretly fallen in love. However, he had no business meddling in Elizabeth’s romantic affairs.

Ize and Carter must be heartbroken.

Obviously, Xu Mo knew the lover wouldn’t be either of them.

Xu Mo looked at Zero, and Zero looked back at him, exchanging glances.

“Female devil, you can rest assured now,” Xu Mo muttered. Now that Elizabeth was in love, Zero wouldn’t need to be on guard against him, right?

Zero felt something was off. How did she suddenly fall in love?

Xu Mo picked up the cup of water from the table and took a sip.

“They didn’t say who it is, only that she is in love. But aside from the guard who is constantly by Princess Elizabeth’s side, who else could it be?”

“No wonder that guard doesn’t dare show his face. It turns out he secretly won over Princess Elizabeth—shameless to the extreme.”

“Right, although he is the hero of Lucas University, I still want to duel with him.”

“Pfft…”

Xu Mo, who was drinking water, spurted it out. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and sprayed it to the side, nearly missing Zero’s face.

Zero’s eyes were wide open, looking at Xu Mo.

Xu Mo was also looking at her.

They gazed at each other, seemingly ‘tender and affectionate,’ in unusual silence.

“Nonsense.” Xu Mo stood up and scolded, immediately drawing the attention and gaze of everyone in the library, which quieted down.

Why was he so excited?

Did he still have thoughts about Princess Elizabeth despite having Zero?

That’s way too scummy!

Zero also looked up at Xu Mo with a strange expression.

Xu Mo felt a chilly sensation all over his body and turned to the person who had just spoken, asking, “What did the Princess say?”

“That barbarian Nilo came to the birthday banquet with his people and publicly proposed to the Royal Family. The Princess rejected him, saying she already had a lover,” the person replied. “Xu Mo, why are you so agitated?”

“I’m excited for my brother. You guys should stop spreading rumors,” Xu Mo said. “Princess Elizabeth must be in love with my brother Ize or Carter.”

“If Ize or Carter had won the Princess’s heart, it would have been known long before today’s official announcement,” the person said with disdain. “Besides, the Princess referred to the guards as ‘sir’ during an interview, calling him the proud son of Lucas University, the Princess’s Guardian Knight, guiding her in her cultivation, spending days and nights together—it’s a classic case of love brewing over time. Besides him, who else could it be? Moreover, when someone just now asked if her lover was the Guardian Knight, the Princess didn’t deny it. She tacitly agreed.”

“Spreading rumors carries criminal liability!” Xu Mo cried out in anguish, his tone less forceful now, as he sank back into his seat. He saw that Zero was still quietly looking at him, which made Xu Mo internally wail.

Elizabeth, I have no grudge against you, why must you do this to me!!

And those gossiping students.

God TM spending days and nights together and love brewing over time!

“There must be some mistake,” Xu Mo told Zero weakly.

Zero picked up the Communicator, searching for the live broadcast, with many media present at the banquet scene—the comments were exploding.

Zero watched for a moment and then looked at Xu Mo, who was shivering.

Zero pushed the Communicator towards Xu Mo, who ‘gathered his courage’ to take a look. Headlines from major news outlets were already out.

Breaking news, Princess Elizabeth officially announces her love affair, the romantic story of the Princess and her Guardian Knight!!

At her twentieth birthday ceremony, Princess Elizabeth reveals her secret love affair.

Who exactly is Princess Elizabeth’s Guardian Knight, and how did he win the beauty’s heart?

The headlines were particularly eye-catching.

Xu Mo pushed the Communicator back toward Zero, seeing that her eyes were unblinkingly fixed on him.

“Zero, do you believe in our feelings for each other?” Xu Mo said weakly.

“Please take a leave,” Zero said.

Xu Mo: “……”
