Chapter 718: Chapter 503, The Last Day of Parliant (Seeking recomndations, subscriptions…)_1
In the afternoon, Rebecca returned in a horse carriage.
The two of them t at the staircase.
It was clear that Rebecca was not in the best of spirits.
Seeing Fang Hao, she said, “Co to my room, I have sothing to tell you.”
“Oh, okay!”
Fang Hao nodded his head, following Rebecca into her room.
Upon entering the room,
The servants prepared fruit tea and pastries for them.
Once everything was ready, they promptly left the room, even considerately shutting the door behind them.
Fang Hao took his seat at the table without reservation, pulling Rebecca into his arms.
The soft touch enveloped his thigh.
Rebecca did not resist, rely sat there and placed a pastry from the table into her mouth.
“What happened with the fire, people still ntioned it today.” Rebecca wrapped one arm around Fang Hao’s shoulder.
“Do you rember Li Rong?”
Rebecca frowned in recollection, “The transmigrator who tried to seduce you at Olivia’s banquet?”
?
Fang Hao was at a loss for words, hearing the tone in Rebecca’s voice, it was like a jealous wife.
“What seduction, we just discussed a potential collaboration to explore the underground palace.”
“Humph! I saw clearly from the second floor that day, when she ca to find you, she purposely pulled her collar lower. Don’t tell you didn’t notice.”
“Er, I really didn’t, all the affluent won at the banquet had low necklines, it was all white as far as I could see, how would I notice how low hers was.”
“You….” Rebecca, irritated, pinched his waist.
Fang Hao didn’t really mind, especially since she didn’t pinch hard.
He tightened his hold on the woman in his arms, smiling and said “Jealous? Nothing’s going on between us, don’t overthink it.”
Rebecca glared at Fang Hao, “Who’s jealous, I was just advising you to be mindful. There are already plenty of people around you.”
In this era, it was an unspoken rule that the powerful have more resources.
Which of those noble lords didn’t have countless won revolving around them?
And sotis, this was even used as a boast to discuss during idle chats.
Similarly, as long as a woman had status, she could also keep a group of handso younger n.
Rebecca furrowed her brows, feeling that her words and actions today were a little out of character.
Although she did not mind being intimate with Fang Hao, she definitely wouldn’t be jealous. Why would she care whether other won were trying to seduce Fang Hao?
After all, she quite liked won too.
After so thought, she felt it might be because their relationship was getting closer and by na, they were already husband and wife.
If he was flirting around in public, it would seem like he didn’t see her as worth considering.
Having figured this out, she no longer felt like pursuing this topic.
The topic shifted to today’s council eting.
“Tavek asked to notify you, the people from the church, they’ve noticed the appearance of the undead to the north of Pruell City.”
“Hmm? What did he say?” Fang Hao beca serious.
In fact, it was hard to hide the presence of the undead.
But the news reaching Silver Wing City still surprised him.
“Tavek said the church privately approached him, asking about the undead activity to the north, and plan to establish a temple in Pruell City after winter.” Rebecca said softly.
“The church doesn’t know that’s my city right?”
“They don’t. If the church had evidence linking you to the undead with their domineering attitude, they would probably have started arresting people by now.” Rebecca replied.
Er, …
In fact, soone in the church already knew.
The transmigrator, Maozi, was aware of his connection with the undead.
But such a thing was hard to use as evidence.
“That’s good, we’ll consider establishing the temple in Pruell City after winter.” After so thought, Fang Hao said.
Whether the temple could be established was still a difficult question to answer.
Since the other party hasn’t made a move, there’s no need for him to be overly suspicious yet.
Rebecca nodded, then continued, “Groot insinuated sothing to today when he ca over. Looking at his self-confident attitude, I worry he has gathered so evidence about Lyss City. He said that if I reconsider, I should go to his residence.”
Upon hearing Groot’s na, Fang Hao felt a deep loathing.
He really was ubiquitous.
“This lecherous old man is really persistent.”
Fang Hao gripped Rebecca’s soft hand, and continued, “Today, Rolana passed along a ssage. She found a total of 14 people planted around you, they…”
“So many?” Rebecca was startled, abruptly interrupting Fang Hao’s words.
She knew there must be so people planted around her.
But she hadn’t expected there to be so many.
Fang Hao nodded and continued, “Rolana has already captured most of them. Now there are only 5 left who can’t be located, they have likely already reached Silver Wing City.”
Next, Fang Hao inford Rebecca of the nas and positions of those five people.
Having heard the full information, Rebecca’s expression turned even more grim.
The identities of these five people were all very important, naturally, they were also people she used to trust.
But now they had all betrayed her.
“So, what should we do?” Rebecca was sowhat flustered again.
While these people remained in Lyss City, she had ways to deal with them.
But once they reached Silver Wing City, she didn’t really have any good solutions.
“It’s fine, I already have a preliminary idea in my mind, just need to refine it. All you need to do is attend the council etings as usual for the next several days.” Fang Hao reassured her in a soothing tone.
Considering that the council eting was about to start, the ti left for them to prepare was also not much.
