Chapter 165 Confession

Seeing that she had no intention of leaving, Zhou Mingyi calmed down and said to her, "That's it for today. I will find a way to solve this trouble later."

He glanced at Zana: "Zana, you go back first. I'll take Renee home to prevent her from being found by those people again on the road."

"Yeah, okay." Zana nodded.

This time Irenia did not refuse his request, put on a helmet and got on Zhou Mingyi's little e-mule.

They headed towards the outskirts of Sand.

The cool wind blew across her face, and Irenia sat in the back seat without saying a word. It wasn't until there were almost no passersby around that she spoke:

"Put me down in front."

Zhou Mingyi listened to her, stopped the car when he got there, and let her down.

Irenia hesitated for a moment, then said: "Store manager, um, do you want to sit at my house? Please do me this favor and at least let me entertain you."

"Oh?" Zhou Mingyi was a little surprised that the other party's trust in him had increased so much. He looked up at the sky and agreed without much thought.

He parked the car and followed Irenia towards her home.

She led the way without saying a word. Zhou Mingyi watched the surroundings gradually become deserted, and they walked one after another in the dim alley with only a few lights.

Irenia took him into the basement of a factory.

"Do you live here?" Zhou Mingyi said looking at the surrounding environment.

"Well, because here, the rent is very cheap." Irenia said.

"You can actually move here. I told you we would provide accommodation. This place is so far away from the college and the environment is not good." Zhou Mingyi said while looking at a few mice running past the corner.

"It's very inconvenient for you to stay here as a girl."

"Is that okay? Thank you, store manager." Irenia's tone was very calm.

"Well, we can take care of you when you move here to prevent those people from coming to you again. If you want to move here, choose a date and I will help you."

Zhou Mingyi looked at Irenia in front of him, always feeling that her alertness disappeared a lot.

Irenia took him to a room on the edge of the second floor of the basement. When she opened the door, it was so dark that nothing could be seen clearly.

"Come in, manager, the room is a little messy, I'll look for a light."

Zhou Mingyi walked in and subconsciously turned on the control in the dark environment, but soon discovered something was wrong.

This is not her home at all. It is a completely enclosed and empty secret room with nothing in it.

"you"

Zhou Mingyi seemed to realize something. The next moment, Irenia closed the door behind him. The demon's hunting instinct was activated, and he rushed towards Zhou Mingyi in front of him. He raised his leg and kicked his lower body, and two thin arms exploded. With great force, he grabbed his hands and pushed him to the ground.

The soft body pressed against his body, and a cold blade pressed against his neck.

The girl's breath was so close that Zhou Mingyi could feel the temperature on her cheek.

"Tell me, what's your purpose in getting close to me?" Irenia asked sharply, but her voice inevitably trembled with nervousness.

"I knew it." Zhou Mingyi thought helplessly. The little princess would definitely not lose her guard against him so easily. Not only did she not lose her guard, she seemed to think that he was a bad person.

"Miss Renee, have you misunderstood something?" Zhou Mingyi's hands were restrained. Although he was not unable to resist due to his strength, he still planned to do nothing for the time being to avoid making the other party more excited.

"Do you think I'm stupid?" Irenia said almost through clenched teeth, "Give me a job, be so tolerant of me, and want to help me solve troubles that have nothing to do with you. With such an obvious intention to get closer, you really think I can see Not coming out?"

"What do you see? With a beautiful girl like you, it's not impossible for people to want to help you, right?" Zhou Mingyi said.

"Do you think I will believe it?"

Zhou Mingyi saw the pair of eyes shining in front of him, shining fiercely in the darkness.

After all, Irenia was also a royal princess in the past. She had already seen many people with scheming intentions at a young age. She had discovered Zhou Mingyi's obvious purpose of approaching her early on.

But she didn't think that the other party's purpose in approaching her was the same as Jialis's. Coupled with the identity of the other party's imprinter, she was almost certain that he must know her true identity.

"Stop playing tricks on me and tell me your purpose! Or, who sent you here!" Irenia said sternly, and the blade in her hand became a little heavier.

Zhou Mingyi sighed helplessly. He originally planned to slowly develop trust with her.

"Okay, I confess, I approached you on purpose, Her Royal Highness Princess Salerno Idel William Irenia."

Seeing that the other party had already said her name, Irenia was not more surprised, but the fierce light in her eyes became stronger.

"Who are you anyway?" she asked.

"The manager of Mingtang's Sander office, Zhou Mingyi." Zhou Mingyi replied.

"Mingtang?" Irenia seemed to have heard of this name, and soon she remembered that this was one of the organizations in the world that had the sovereign divine handle engraved by her teacher in the past.

Irenia has some understanding of his purpose. The other party is probably for the royal artifact she carries: [Crimson Eye].

"Are you here for the Crimson Eye?" Irenia asked.

"No, you should know that that thing is of little use now, but I don't have the bloodline of the Royal Court of Salerno, so I can't use it." Zhou Mingyi said.

That holy object is the same as the seal transmitted by blood. It requires blood as the basis to use it, otherwise it cannot even be touched.

"Then what are you doing for?" Irenia asked.

"For you." Zhou Mingyi said seriously.

Irenia lowered her eyes gloomily.

"Hey, don't worry, I do it for you, to be precise, for your royal bloodline." Zhou Mingyi quickly added.

"My royal blood?"

"Yes, I need it because I'm going to start a war and your blood is my excuse."

Zhou Mingyi said with a smile, facing the girl who was close at hand.

"War? You?" Irenia didn't know what he was talking about. "Yes, I need a war, a war that can unify Mortan, so that our Life Hall can grow again."

The only way for Meitang to rise quickly in a short period of time is to gain huge resources and prestige by winning wars, and the best place in the world today where he can trigger wars is: Mortan.

A war, a war to unify Mortan, was the fastest way for him to gain fame.

This is also the reason why he wants to contact Irenia. She has royal blood, and she is an excuse that allows him to start a war.

This is Zhou Mingyi's purpose to calm down the chaotic situation in Mortan in the name of the last princess of the Salerno court.

Irenia looked at the man in front of her uncertainly.

"You want to use my name to unify Mortan? Do you know what the situation is there now?"

"I grew up there in the past, so of course I know the situation there, Princess." Zhou Mingyi said calmly.

"Then do you think those warlords are so easy to deal with? Do you think this is a child's game?" Irenia said in a stern voice.

"So now I need to raise funds and win over the organization. If nothing goes wrong, I can launch a crusade against the warlords in Mortan in two years." Zhou Mingyi said in a calm tone.

"But I still need your excuse to make my war actions logical." He added.

"How naive." Irenia snorted, "Do you think the current situation in Mortan can be solved with guns and cannons? Once you get stuck in, it's not that easy to figure it out!"

"Of course I know it, but I have to do it. I have to make a bet this time. Moreover," Zhou Mingyi changed his tone: "I believe that princess, you also want to take back the country that should belong to you, right? Instead of shrinking down. This kind of place.”

Irenia's face changed slightly, she pursed her lips and lowered her eyes.

As the last royal family, her parents have described to her more than once the glory of Salerno, but now those are already a fantasy to her.

But it is impossible to say that she has never thought about returning to the glory of the past. The royal blood in her bones makes her long to sit on the throne again, especially during these years of wandering outside, she has been in the world more than ever. Reminisce about the glory of the past.

But that was just a fantasy after all. The heavy pressure of reality made her see the reality clearly. She was just a little girl now. She had lost all her support and background. It was impossible for her to move the building of reality.

But now, the man in front of her told her that he would take her to regain her former glory.

Irenia didn't know what expression to show, of course she longed for it, but if she wanted to give herself to this man.

When she was in a daze, Zhou Mingyi spoke: "Well, how about we all get up first and change to a normal posture?"

Only then did Irenia come to her senses and realized that she was now completely pressed against Zhou Mingyi's body, and they were lying on the ground in a very strange posture.

She hesitated for a moment, then slowly stood up, holding the dagger warily and staring at Zhou Mingyi closely.

Zhou Mingyi stood up and patted the dust off his body.

"Do you really want to start a war against those warlords?" Irenia looked at him and asked.

"Even if I don't take action, other countries will eventually find ways to deal with the problem of Mortan. It is impossible to let those dangerous elements continue to develop like this." Zhou Mingyi said, "But if they take action, then you will never It will be impossible to regain the throne, and Mortan will be divided up by other countries, and you know what this means."

"Anyway, I have told you my current purpose and all my thoughts. If you are not willing, I can't force you to join us. I will find other ways, such as finding a certain king of Mortan. .”

He bypassed the wary Irenia, opened the door and walked out, then turned to look at her again.

"If you are willing, you can continue to come to the cafe tomorrow. Otherwise, we will part ways from now on, and I will not bother you again."

He took out a ring, the one Alyssa found for him that could hide spiritual power, and showed it to Irenia.

"This ring is called Karan's Commandment. It can hide the aura on your body and replace the evil magic you are using. If you are willing to join, I will give it to you."

"Think about it yourself."

Zhou Mingyi left.

Irenia looked at his back without stopping him, and stood alone in the dark little room for a long time.

"Are you just leaving like that? Aren't you afraid that she will run away?" On the way out of the basement, Xiya appeared beside him.

"Just run away. Anyway, I have a plan." Zhou Mingyi curled his lips and said, "I can't hang myself on her alone. I have to keep a backup plan."

"But after all, Irenia is still the best solution, right? And she also has the Crimson Eye, a sacred object. It will be very troublesome if she falls into the hands of others." Xiya sighed.

"It's a pity that you still have some conscience and didn't directly forcibly imprison her or use other methods to control her."

"Do I look like that kind of person?" Zhou Mingyi glared at her, "This is a long-term cooperation. What is needed is the trust of both parties. I need to ensure that there will be no unstable factors, and"

He changed the subject.

"I am confident enough to guarantee that she will agree. After all, I wrote her character."

"It's so awesome, then I will ask Xiao Jixiang not to restore your energy tonight." Xiya said to him with a smile.

"."

The next day, Sea Breeze Salt Cafe.

The cafe was closed for the day today in order to repair the glass wall that was damaged by the gang yesterday.

Zhou Mingyi originally thought that after yesterday's incident, the cafe's business would be affected to some extent, but when he arrived there in the morning, he found that it was already crowded with people.

And they were all directed at him.

It took a lot of effort for him to squeeze in and close the door, blocking all those people out.

"What happened? What happened to these people?" He asked Chris in surprise.

"You, didn't you read the college forum?" Chris ran over with her phone and showed it to him.

"Someone uploaded a video of you, the store manager, fighting off seven gangsters with your bare hands yesterday to the forum. Our cafe was still a bit popular, but now it's even bigger! The number of views has exceeded one million so far!"

Zhou Mingyi took it and looked at the comments under the video. They were: "He is like a fierce warrior." "In three minutes, I want all the information about this man." "This last figure from behind will kill me!" "This Isn’t he the owner of the cafe that the saint went to? I told you that cafe must not be simple!”

"What the hell is this?" Zhou Mingyi's head was about to explode. He planned to keep a low profile for the time being. This time, he was given direct 360-degree exposure without blind spots.

"Damn it, I knew I should have taken care of those guests last night, why did I forget this?"
