Collapse Iron: After watching the simulation, they all turned to the dark side.

"You've had a tough time too, haven't you? You haven't told anyone about what's been going on, have you? Only children share their sad stories with everyone."

[Li Sushang: Without realizing it, have I become the adult they talk about?]

[Gui Naifen: It's okay, Changchang. You can tell me if anything's bothering you.]

[Fireworks: Fun fact, *Cephalotaxus fortunei* is a short-lived species.]

[Mirror Flow: The theory of trench lifespan is still chasing me.]

Upon hearing this, Kerudela seemed to be slightly taken aback, then smiled wryly and said...

Do you think I have someone to confide in?

"No, and it's unlikely in the future either. You have too many thoughts on your mind; it's hard for you to trust anyone."

"Is that so? You're absolutely right." Kerudela smiled, seemingly agreeing with Lu Qing's statement.

[Fireworks: Lu Qing: You really are all you think about, aren't you?]

"I'm leaving now, I haven't watered the flowers at home yet." Lu Qing said, getting up to say goodbye as it was getting late.

“My master, take care.” Krystalla raised her glassy eyes and stood up.

"Wait, teacher, would you like to take a pastry home? You've worked hard teaching today."

Lu Qing felt like she had forgotten something very important, or perhaps it wasn't so important if she couldn't remember it at all.

The starry night, the moonlight like a ribbon.

Krydella glanced at the pocket watch in her palm.

Are you angry because of what happened during the day? Or have you simply forgotten?

Krydella stared blankly at the empty door and wide-open window she had left behind.

That's it for now, go to bed first.

What a despicable subject! How dare he disregard the promise he made to the princess.

Insubordination is an unforgivable crime.

Kerudela wrapped herself tightly in her blanket, feeling a little like secretly shedding tears.

Will I be able to successfully ascend to the throne?

Thus said Krishna.

[Fireworks: Krydella: My life has been like walking on thin ice. Will I ever reach the other side?]

[March 7th: @Fireworks, stop using overused jokes!]

Chapter 92 Top-Grade Rice Spirit Root

"Auntie, buy five yuan's worth of meat, I'll feed the turtle."

"Lord Lu Qing, please spare my family!" The white-haired old woman in front of me cried, tears streaming down her face.

This has nothing to do with Lu Qing, it's all that Haji-ni-Lu Qing's fault, that damned cleaner, don't you even pay for your groceries?

And I have to take the blame? I deserve to be possessed by you.

However, Lu Qing didn't care. Since it wasn't his money, he casually took out a handful of silver coins from his pocket and placed them on the white-haired old woman's stall.

"I may have been a bad person in the past, but now I want to be a good person."

The silver-haired old woman seemed quite happy, and Lu Qing also received a piece of pork tenderloin.

The cleaner that Lu Qing threw into the water to feed the fish seemed to have no status or money, and his family lived in the suburbs.

Why is it so far?

Well, a house acquired through possession is better than nothing, right?

Cooking, watering, and feeding the "turtle" in an orderly manner—of course, the turtle is yourself—a money-saving tip every day.

The main reason is that I'm terrified of being poor.

[Ruan Mei: @Heita, look what you've done! My Qing has turned into this.]

[Black Tower: Don't talk nonsense, Ruan Mei. Paying back debts is a matter of course.]

[Haiserin: What do you mean "your family"? It's clearly my family's! Why are you trying to seduce my husband?]

[Black Tower: What do you mean by "your husband"? He's clearly my private property.]

[Haiseyin: These two young girls from Chu are really hard to judge.]

[Fireworks: Fast forward to the point where lies don't hurt, but the truth is the sharpest knife.]

After dinner, you prepare to go to bed.

"You, being a germaphobe, bought new sheets and duvet covers."

"Close your eyes and listen to the sound of the evening breeze."

You have fallen asleep.

"The next morning."

"You're awake. Are you planning to go to work?"

You suddenly remembered your promise from yesterday.

"Oh no, I forgot to climb through her window tonight."

"Oh no, I've stood you up again."

In this regard, you choose:

"A. Apologize to Crydella and beg for her forgiveness."

"B. As long as you shut her up, she won't be able to say anything critical of you."

"C. Buy some small gifts; girls like sparkly things."

"D. If we disregard the facts when using PUA techniques, isn't that perfectly acceptable?"

Lu Qing carefully analyzed these options.

The first thing is to apologize.

An apology is impossible. I will never apologize in this lifetime. Even if I, Lu Qing, split my forces into five groups to strike the Black Tide, I will never apologize.

[Fireworks: Joke Explanation: It's impossible to work, I'll never work in my life.]

[Seele: I'll get a tattoo of Zhou's name, and I swear I'll never be a wage earner again.]

[Bronya: What have you learned since Bellberg connected to the internet?]

Then there's option B, which has the highest level of enjoyment.

Well, it's hard to say.

If you dare to do that, when Krydela ascends the throne, the first thing she'll do is cut herself into mincemeat.

Just pass on it.

[Hanabi: Why don't you think about it again? You need to cultivate a relationship from a young age.]

[Crydella: I'm an adult, I just look younger.]

[Fireworks: Reminder: Everyone in the live stream is an adult, even babies.]

[Star: Shen He's kindness is never enough!]

[Robin: If you come through three winters, I'll be dressed in pure white.]

[Fireworks: Look at you, singing again.]

Regarding option C, is it something sparkly?

It's tentative. As for this PUA technique, Lu Qing is still very interested.

Lu Qing searched through Haji's house for a while and found some shiny seashells.

After a slight hesitation, Lu Qing tore off a thread and strung it into a necklace.

Try sending her a small gift first; if that doesn't work, then use some intense psychological manipulation on her.

"You entered the palace using facial recognition."

"Smooth sailing as always."

"Kainese seems to completely trust you and hasn't noticed your traitorous nature at all."

"Unfortunately, she only makes empty promises and doesn't give you anything substantial."

"Lu Qing, what are you holding in your hand?" Katniss asked with a smile.

"Your Excellency, I have heard that indulging in frivolous pursuits is the best way to destroy a person's will, so I intend to give it a try."

"Not bad, not bad, keep it up." Katniss felt more and more that it was a mistake not to entrust the black-clad boy in front of her with important responsibilities sooner.

With him around, there's no need to worry about turning the princess into a complete puppet.

So she hummed softly.

[March 7th: Even I feel like humming along.]

[Fireworks: The whimsical literature of the ditch is still chasing me.]

Beneath the brightly lit crystal pendant.

Krystal, expressionless, fiddled with the fruit on her plate using her fork.

"Teacher, I waited for you for so long last night." Her tone was ambiguous.

"Is that so? My home is too far away, so I thought about it and decided not to come."

Lu Qingcai then realized he had forgotten about this; this short, blue-haired guy could detect lies.

Why are they so hard to fool?

"I'm sorry, I forgot."

"If the teacher doesn't want to come, they don't have to. It's no big deal. If I'm being petty, then it's my fault."

"Stop for now."

"Oh, all I did was say a few extra words, and the teacher got upset. I should have just kept quiet and not made the teacher unhappy."

Lu Qing simply extended his finger and lightly flicked her forehead, and Kerudela stopped her nagging, wincing and clutching her forehead in pain.

"Really, I didn't realize that... Krydella."

Lu Qing never imagined that this monarch would have such a manipulative side.

People who don't know the situation would really feel sorry for her.

However, Lu Qing, who already knew Keldera's true nature, said it was difficult to comment.

But in the end, he had indeed broken his promise, so he took out the white seashell necklace.

"gave it to you."

"How did this come about?"

"Picked it up on the road."

They're too hard to fool.

Lu Qing had no choice but to tell the truth.

"I strung them together myself using leftover scraps from home."

"It's not bad, I'll accept it. This is the first time someone has given me a gift."

Those crystal-clear pupils turned into crescent shapes, like a lazy cat stretching its slender waist.

To be honest, Lu Qing sometimes couldn't tell whether Keludela was acting or showing her true feelings.

"nice! You love it."

"I didn't lie."

"I know, I just enjoy seeing your helpless expression; it's a punishment for breaking your promise."
