Otome's Law of Ascension

Chapter 15 15. Afternoon Tea

Princess Tata was touched by Licia's tearful expression. She has a red nose and flushed cheeks because of shame, and every part of her makes people feel pity.

The princess felt that the girl in front of her was indeed extremely sad.

"Miss Yin, what's the matter with you?" Troy came to look for the princess, but unexpectedly saw the scene of the beauty crying at the door.

Inspired his good qualities of pity and pity. "Is there anything I can do to help?"

Lycia lowered her head, showing her smooth neck, and asked Tata to wipe away her tears.

"Thank you, I don't need it for now." Licia said with a sob.

Anyway, she is already very embarrassing now, and she doesn't mind selling her badly.

"How about this, Your Royal Highness, I will wait for you in the tea room with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. You and Miss Yin can come together after tidying up." Troy's favorability bar is also rising, which makes Licia feel that her crying just now is more and more like is a show.

This performance that gained favorability also filled her with a weird sense of accomplishment.

After Licia washed her face, she wore an apricot-colored Empire-style long dress with a string of pearls hanging from the lantern sleeves on her forearms, and an off-white silk scarf tied around her neck, the end of which was tucked in neatly. into the neckline.

This filled her with a pure and gentle feeling.

When Licia came to the academy from home, she asked the maid to tie her hair up. Now she removed the somewhat cumbersome and exaggerated jewel hair accessories, and tied a bow on the hair bag with the hairband that Princess Tata just sent.

The bowknot adds a girly feeling to Licia's.

Tata took her hand and talked intimately.

They walked across the lawn, passed the fountain pool, and came to the glass garden tea room.

"Hello, Miss Lycia." Dimitri, who was in a daze, stood up, and Troy went to invite Viscount Fudomi, so he could only open the chair for the two noble ladies.

"Good afternoon, Your Highness the Crown Prince." Licia kept her eyes downcast after she sat down, looking sideways at Dimitri's right hand on the coffee table.

Tata took Lycia's hand. "The queen mother was also locked up a few days ago. I hope she can escape like your brother."

The crown prince next to him patted the table lightly. "Tata, pay attention to your wording. Even if you want to comfort Miss Licia, you must not use such irresponsible words. Mother made a mistake, and she is only temporarily punished."

Tata didn't dare to speak anymore, and didn't try to refute her brother.

After refilling two cups of tea, Viscount Fudomi and Duke Troy arrived late.

"Sorry, I'm a little late."

Viscount Fudomi took off his cloak, and a blood-red gemstone was tied around his neck with a metal chain, which happened to land on her fair chest.

"Miss Licia, hello, I'm Fudomi, do you remember me?" Although Fudomi was named a Viscount, his status is not high in the noble circle, and their family does not have a duke title for her to inherit .

"Of course, hello." Licia smiled slightly. This Viscount Fudomi is an interesting person. For the Viscount.

Linxi used to complain to her all the time, how could there be a young girl who would hang around a mother-level person all day long.

But Licia now understands that people like Viscount Fudomi, hanging around with little girls like them all day, is a waste of her social skills.

"Oh, by the way, a meeting gift for you, and an exclusive perfume for our little princess." She first handed the perfume to the princess, then took Licia's hand, and tied the blue ribbon The box was placed in Licia's hand. "Miss Licia, some tacky things, I hope you don't dislike them."

Viscount Fudomi had a gypsy look, with slightly high cheekbones and wide, upturned lips.

"Thank you." Licia smiled slightly.

"By the way, I have something to ask about inviting Miss Licia over." After Troy finished speaking, he glanced at Dimitri, who was only drinking tea, as if he hadn't heard that he planned to start talking about something serious.

"Yeah." Licia nodded.

"Uh." Troy glanced at the crown prince again. "Where were you yesterday?"

Licia froze for a moment. "Shang Lan Street."

After she finished her answer, Dimitri's dislike bar changed to a good opinion bar.

"What did you do in the lower district in the past, is it related to the former heir of the He family?" Dimitri put down his teacup and asked the question that Troy couldn't say.

Licia felt a little annoyed, she was also a nobleman, but she asked aggressively about this kind of thing. When he met her in the corridor just now, Viscount Troy seemed to ask her to attend the tea party to relieve her worries.

Now, he is being interrogated like a prisoner.

"Yes." She replied very simply, the other party had already determined that she was for this purpose, and it was useless for her to argue.

"What's the matter?" Dimitri's eyes fixed on Licia, and for some reason, his thoughts suddenly turned to the idea that she was so beautiful, and he even regretted why he was asking such stupid questions.

"I know that my brother sometimes goes to Lan Lan Street. I just want to go and see if he is there, but he is not." Licia said half-truth, and this reason is very reasonable, very reasonable.

Troy coughed twice. "Dimitri, don't ask." He couldn't stand it anymore.

Tata hastily moved the chair closer to Lycia. "Ayin, don't be angry, he has no malicious intentions."

Dimitri unconsciously picked up the teapot and filled Licia with water. "Sorry, what is your duty, you must ask clearly, otherwise you will be sent to the church for interrogation."

"So, does the Church have any clues now? About my brother." Licia's voice raised a lot.

"Do you wish to have it, or not?" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince handed the teapot to Troy, signaling him to pour tea for the other two ladies.

Without hesitation, Licia simply raised her head and looked directly at Dimitri on the opposite side. "Of course there is no hope. I hope the church will never find my brother!" She pushed the table and stood up after finishing speaking.

"It's getting late. It's time for me to pack up and go to the cafeteria to eat." Licia didn't even greet Tata, picked up the gift from Doomi and put it on the table, and strode away from the glass tea room.

Troy sighed and shook his head. "I've already said, don't ask questions so quickly, and cut to the topic slowly. It was originally to comfort the beautiful lady. As a result, Miss Licia thought she was specially called for interrogation."

Dimitri also felt a little regretful, he was only fit to be a monarch, and he hadn't learned how to get along with ladies.

*

The more Licia thought about it, the angrier she became, thinking that later she started to worry about her brother Case. There were too many things that happened in the past two days, and there was too much to do, so she put her brother's affairs aside for the time being.

But now at school, she began to get scared when people repeatedly mentioned things she didn't want to think about.

The church will definitely send people to track down my brother, and the royal family and other nobles will also try to find him.

If he was caught escaping, the consequences would definitely not be as simple as being exiled for a few years.

Because after Keith escaped, he was counted as having severed ties with the He family, and he was no longer considered a nobleman.

Then it is not a nobleman who has committed such a great crime, and the punishment that awaits him does not know what it will be.

"Miss Yin, I see you again." Posetti ran over from a long distance, and only found that the girl he admired had no smile on her face, and her eyes were bright red.

"What's wrong with you." He felt at a loss. He didn't know what happened, and he had no way to comfort him. He could only cautiously stretch out his hand and lightly touched Licia's shoulder.

Afraid that his behavior would be reckless, he quickly sank down.

The next moment, something completely unexpected happened to him. The lovely and poor Licia leaned against his chest, grabbed his front, and sobbed softly.
