Chapter 584: A Mistake?
Chapter 584: A Mistake?
As soon as George throws the cup to the ground, the people outside would rush in and cut Lin Xiao up!
Sigh, dont blame me for being cruel, I have no choice, its your own fault for not being able to withstand temptation. If you had just refused me, then I would have spared your life.
Though no one would be able to refuse, even I probably wouldnt be able to hold back hahaha!
On this side, George had already sentenced Lin Xiao to death as he took a sip from the cup. Once Lin Xiao responded, he would throw the cup and send the signal to end this ridiculous test!
But Lin Xiaos response shocked him!
Sorry King George, although Im swayed, but I still cant agree.
Hmph, Claire do you see? This man cant withstand temptation, he puh! Cough, cough, wait! What did you just say?
George had thought that Lin Xiao would immediately nod and agree, but he actually refused him, so he choked on the water he was drinking!
Damn kid, say that again!?
I said, I cant agree to your request.
Why? As long as you agree, you can get territory and beautiful women, why wont you agree?
Well, dont worry, I just cant.
Dont think I dont know what youre planning! Even if you refuse me, you still have to get out of Gotham Kingdom and leave Claire! Hmph, dont try to use my daughter for her money, dont even think about it!
George pretended to get angry and slowly put his cup back and waited for an explanation from Lin Xiao.
There was no way anyone could refuse, but Lin Xiao did, why?
Could he have already seen through the test? Impossible!
Lin Xiao, you have to explain it to me!
Sigh do you really want to hear it?
Hurry up!
Sigh, okay then. King George, you dont have to act anymore, I know this is just a test.
A test? W-what test? What are you saying!?
Sigh, your acting isnt too bad, but the details were done poorly if Im right, those two women werent slaves, right?
Before George could respond, Lin Xiao pointed at the two behind him and exposed them.
According to what I know, slaves must wear metal collars, so a real slave would have a red mark on their necks, and their necks are completely white. The collars also sound too clear, because it isnt made with metal, but just a prop
Eh? Does wearing a collar leave a red mark?
Elena nervously extended her neck and tried looking at it, but she couldnt see her own neck.
Elena, please, your collar is custom made by Snow, it may look heavy, but it isnt heavy at all, so it wont leave a mark!
Hm really?
Of course! So King George, am I right?
Lin Xiao smiled and looked to George, George didnt say anything and silently looked at the two women. The two women understood and immediately took off their wigs and collars. After doing that, they bowed before leaving the room.
Youre right, they arent slaves, but my servants. I got them to dress like that temporarily.
It isnt just the maids, even this contract and map are fake, right? Its already strange that Heino Kingdom would promise me land and with prince Charless personality, theres no way he would give away territory for free. Also, theres something wrong with the brush you didnt give me any ink, what am I supposed to use to sign? My spit?
Uh I forgot the ink, that was indeed my mistake. Though it sounds like youre well acquainted with prince Charles?
Well, not well acquainted, but we did cross paths. Youre talking about the beautiful trap prince, the red-haired Scarlet fairy, that Charles Williams, right?
Thats right, him. I never expected that you were his friend, I underestimated you.
Of course George would never have thought that they werent actually friends, and the only reason Lin Xiao remembered Charles was because he was almost killed by ShenDai Ying.
So, you dont have to pretend anymore. You actually planned on killing me, right?
What do you mean?
This room is surrounded by your people lying in ambush, right? Let me count, 1, 2, 3 a total of 16, and theres one seventh-level warrior, you sure think highly of me.
I set an ambush? How did you know?
Hehe, I dont just know about the ambush, I also know what you planned you wanted to throw the cup as a signal to get them to come in and kill me, right?
What? Father, y-you!?
Claire immediately hopped up and pointed at her father in shock!
George was just as shocked as he stared at Lin Xiao. Who was he? How did he see through all his plans?
He wasnt just mature and experienced, he also had meticulous attention to detail.
He had thought that Lin Xiao would never pass his test, and now he didnt just pass, he even exposed his trap!
Everyone stop! Father! Explain! Is what Lin Xiao saying true? Did you really set an ambush and want to kill him?
This time, Claire exploded as she questioned her father. How could she calm down when her own father was trying to kill the one she liked?
No! C-calm down! How could I be trying to kill him?
Oh? So what he said was all wrong?
Of course! Its slander! How could I be trying to kill such an outstanding youngster?
Faced against his furious daughter, there was nothing he could do as he looked to Lin Xiao for help, but Lin Xiao just shrugged and watched.
Damn brat, bullying your father-in-law before youve even married in, are you tired of living?
Father, what did yo just say??
No, no! Listen to me its just a misunderstanding! A misunderstanding!
George was sweating and didnt know how to respond since everything Lin Xiao said was the truth but he didnt want to be hated by his daughter!
Claire, d-dont listen to him! What ambush, what cup do you think this is a story? Theres nothing of the sort!
George tried to deny it while purposely picking up the cup and taking a big drink out of it, trying to prove his innocence. But because he was too nervous, he drank too quickly and chocked and then started coughing. The coughing wasnt a big deal, but his hand ended up slipping and dropping the entire cup to the floor.
Damn!
George instantly froze and knew that the warriors heard the signal and would rush in.
As expected, 16 fully equipped warriors burst through the walls and rushed in with their weapons raised.
At this moment, George couldnt worry about anything else even if it was humiliating, he could only shout out with a hoarse voice.
Stop! It was a mistake! A mistake!
