The enchanting duke's only wife

Chapter 40
Although he was still well-dressed, Ye Jue, who was familiar with his picky habits, could tell at a glance that there were many wrinkles in Xu Nuo's clothes, obviously they had been worn for a long time and hadn't been changed.His complexion was almost not much better than his own after the serious illness, his eyes were deeply blue, and his expression was deeply worried and... panicked.

panic?

It is almost impossible for this word to appear in today's promises.He is no longer the humble illegitimate child who met Ye Jue back then when he was in a difficult situation.Now that he has rightfully inherited the duke title, no one dares to look down on him.

But why...how can I make this man who is almost omnipotent...show such an expression?Seeing Ye Jue's sluggish, even unresponsive application, Xu Nuo strode forward, hugged Ye Jue and left.

Naturally, the media cannot let go of such good gossip.

"Excuse me, who is this gentleman? What is his relationship with Ms. Ye!" A reporter from a certain newspaper rushed forward bravely.

Xu Nuo paused for a moment, turned around and made the reporter shut up with just one look.His eyes were piercingly cold and cruel.Different from Su Nuan's iceberg back then, Xu Nuo's monstrous appearance has a more terrifying aura cultivated from years of wandering among the dark nobles.What a duke should have, momentum.

The original noise at the entrance of the hospital immediately quieted down again.Xi Zimo immediately directed the bodyguards on the side to protect the passage, and he followed Ye Jue's promise and got into the car that took them to the hospital.

Among the stunned reporters, after seeing the license plate of the car that Xu promised to take, he asked suddenly: "Black license plate, is that man from the embassy?"

"Hey...do you remember who said something before that man appeared?"

"It seems to be English... DUTCH? DUKE?"

"You mean... DUKE!" Someone finally remembered and exclaimed, "I remember! He just visited City B yesterday, the Duke from England!"

In a word, the eyes of these reporters who have only been doing local news in Mengcheng were blinded, and they didn't know what to do.

They seem to have offended someone with a lot of background.And Ye Jue, who got into the car, didn't speak from the beginning to the end.Xu Nuo held her hand and never let it go, and even got into the car and hugged her stubbornly.Although his expression didn't seem to change, Ye Jue, who was leaning against his heart, heard his heart beating fast.

She was suddenly scared, the promise of this moment.Because although she could feel Xu Nuo's kindness to her, even though he had confessed himself, Ye Jue's vague inferiority complex was still at work.She knew she wasn't good enough for him.Therefore, she dared not give her heart over again.

Only to escape by silence.

Sitting in the front row, Xi Zimo naturally saw the weird interaction between the two, and wanted to say a word or two to adjust the awkward atmosphere, but Xu Nuo stopped him with a look.

"Stay here honestly, and your account will be settled in a while!"

Xi Zimo quickly read the message, and could only look back out of the window with a sad face, praying that he would not be punished too badly...

I still remember the time when I was ordered to protect Ye Jue but lost him. I was sent to the barracks to "train" for three months!And it was the "reduction of sentence" that Ye Jue got because he was safe and sound.This time, Ye Jue got rid of such a big thing... I don't know if I will be lingering...

The car drove steadily all the way into the British Consulate in Mengcheng. When Ye Jue got out of the car, he saw this British-style building abruptly located in Mengcheng. Walked over to salute him and called him Lord Duke, then realized that this is the territory of the British.

How strange, it is clearly in China, but the land in the consulate belongs to the United Kingdom.

So even if her name was wrong when she came in, the British visa she had was actually valid.

"Excuse me." Xu Nuo nodded slightly to express his acceptance and took the note to Ye Jue's hand and walked into the house prepared for him by the ambassador.

In the consulate, there will always be a small detached villa prepared to receive visits from nobles.The duke who promised to be a high-ranking duke would naturally live here without exception.

He helped Ye Jue sit down on the sofa, got up and told the deacon to make tea and prepare some food, then asked Xi Zimo to hand over all Ye Jue's medical records to him, and then walked to Ye Jue with a thin blanket in his arms. she puts on.

Even though it was midsummer, Ye Jue became weak due to a serious illness, and felt cold all over in the air-conditioned room.Xu Nuo soon noticed.

Subconsciously touched the blanket on his body, Ye Jue and Xu Nuo just kept silent and didn't speak.

She didn't know what to say.

Even... She knew he was looking at her.

After a long while, he finally opened his mouth with a sigh of promise.However, what Ye Jue said was not his pure English that Ye Jue was familiar with, but... standard excessive Chinese: "What do you want me to do with you?"

Originally, it was a kind of helpless speech, but because of his correct pronunciation, Ye Jue couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Xu Nuo was stretching out his arms to hug her, but he didn't expect Ye Jue to laugh suddenly, so he put down his hands angrily, and looked at her suspiciously.

When Ye Jue looked up, he saw the evildoer he was familiar with looking at him with innocent and pitiful eyes. He suddenly stopped laughing, but the corners of his mouth curled up uncontrollably: "When did you learn Chinese?"

"Hmm... after I met you? But I just started speaking recently, and it's difficult to speak Chinese." No matter how standard Xu Nuo's pronunciation was, the words he said were still a bit weird, which made Ye Jue grin even more cheerfully.

"Haha... NOIR, you idiot!" She said with a smile, "Who can learn a language like a newscaster!"

"What is a news broadcast? You say I'm stupid!" Xu Nuo pretended to be angry and hugged Ye Jue, "Who asked me to tutor you when you were in school, huh?"
