"Leet, I'm going back to the room first. You should also go to bed early and don't tire yourself out."

"Yeah." Li Te nodded.

……

The next afternoon, Orson convened a cadre meeting in the student union office.

Previously, the meeting was delayed because the cadres’ schedules did not match, but today we finally found an opportunity to gather everyone together for a meeting.

"Good afternoon, everyone." Orson, who was sitting at the top, said this, looking at the cadres below the stage.

In addition to the president, vice president and executive director elected on the first day, the three also nominated six cadres to form a nine-member student union leadership group.

The Discipline Department and Life Department are led by the Executive Director, the Liaison Department and Publicity Department are led by the Vice President, and the Office and Coordination Department are led by the Vice President.

Long leadership.

"Ahem, first of all, this should be our first general meeting of the Student Union. It's a new semester and a new Student Union. We..."

At the meeting, Orson assigned the responsibilities of each department, as well as the subsequent recruitment matters.

After that, there were only three people left in the student union.

Orson, Elsa and Olivia.

"Student Elsa, as the office director from now on, this place will be left to you to take charge of."

"Yeah." Elsa nodded.

The office is considered to be a relatively important department in the Student Union. It is responsible for communicating and coordinating departments within the Student Union, as well as formulating plans for internal activities of the Student Union.

Executive Director Manuel is now preparing for the tasks of the Discipline Department.

The Discipline Department, as a subordinate of the Executive Director, is also one of the most important departments within the Student Union. It needs to be established as soon as possible so that it can play its due role and also add something to his resume as an Executive Director. Therefore, he went out to recruit people today in the heavy rain.

"Come to think of it, Director Manuel is really hardworking," Orson said with emotion.

"Of course." Olivia smiled. "After all, his discipline department is the most famous. If he doesn't do a good job this term, he will be blamed."

"But it is true that the school's discipline needs to be improved." Elsa nodded in agreement.

"You know, they are all sons of the Duke, but why are some so outstanding while others are like bugs hiding in the corner, liking to plot against others?" Olivia said this, as if hinting at something.

"Then I don't know." Orson also understood the meaning of Olivia's words.

Everyone knows that Tyrell's family is from the Duchy of Naples. It is impossible to say that this matter has nothing to do with the Duchy of Naples.

"Come to think of it." Elsa said at this time: "Yesterday, I heard that Mr. Donny invited Mr. Leete to dinner."

"Ah?" Orson was surprised when he heard that. "But Lit didn't tell me."

"It would be abnormal if I had to report to you, Orson, even before going out for dinner with someone," said Olivia.

"But, Donny is from Florence's family..." Orson said this and then stood up.

"Student Elsa, thank you for telling me this news." Having said this, he immediately left the Student Union office and rushed towards the dormitory.

What a joke, Downey is my main target of prevention. Tyrell was most likely instructed by him to harass Leet. How could he be allowed to have any connection with Leet?

Plus, he just argued with Downey last night, so the relationship between the two can't be said to be incompatible, but it can only be said to be irreconcilable.

……

After Orson left, Elsa and Olivia looked at each other.

"Since you knew it first, why did you let me tell Orson?"

"Of course it's because I don't want Orson to know that I'm paying close attention to Litt." Olivia smiled.

"I really don't understand." Elsa shook her head and stood up. "Regarding recruiting, I'll recruit again in a week, shouldn't that be a problem?"

One week is the most suitable time calculated by Afulo.

"It's okay." Olivia nodded. "Please give me more advice in the future, Your Highness."

"Yeah." Elsa heard this and walked out of the office without saying anything else.

Chapter 64: You are hiding something from me

After Orson returned to the dormitory, Litt had just returned from the library. When he saw Orson in a hurry, he asked with some confusion:

"Um... Orson, what's wrong? I remember you seemed to be in a meeting..."

"Well, the meeting is over." Orson said this and sat on the sofa in the living room.

"Leet, come and sit down. Let's have a good chat today."

"Oh, okay..." Although he didn't know why Orson said that, Litt still did as he was told and sat obediently on the sofa on the other side.

"Lite, are you hiding something from me?" Orson said this, staring at Litt without saying a word.

Li Te was shocked when he heard this.

Oh no, could it be that Orson found out that I’m a girl?

Thinking of this, Li Te couldn't help but feel his heart beating faster.

Oh no, if Orson knew that I lied to him, he would be angry...

By then, would he abandon me, or would he teach me a lesson...

No, what if Orson is cheating me? I must not confess!

Thinking of this, Lit shook his head.

"No, why would I hide something from you, Orson?"

"Really?" Orson continued to stare at Litt, and then sighed.

"Well, then just treat it as true."

"Huh?" Litt was stunned when he heard that. He didn't expect Orson to believe his words so easily.

"I just didn't expect it." Orson said this with a sad look on his face. "My son, Leeteuk, has grown up to the point where he can lie to his brother without feeling any guilt."

"Alas..." As he said this, he sighed deliberately again.

Litt was anxious.

She didn't expect Orson to be so hurt by this lie, and then she quickly said, "Orson, I, I, I, I, I'll tell you everything, please don't be unhappy, okay..."

"No thanks." Orson waved his hand. "Leet, why do you think I asked you? Of course it's because I know everything."

"Huh!?" Now it was Leeteuk's turn to be dumbfounded.

Knowing everything? Did Orson already know that he was a girl?

Then he still kept me by his side, did it mean that he was waiting for me to confess, and then...

Thinking of this, Lit's face became more and more rosy.

While Litt was still fantasizing, Orson continued:

"You went out to eat with Donnie yesterday at noon, right?"

"what?"

There are twists and turns.

"Orson, you're talking about this..." Litt was relieved to hear that this was the matter.

"Well, what else do you think it is?" Orson said, narrowing his eyes. "Is there something else you are hiding from me, Lit?"

"Ah, no, no, no." Litt shook her head quickly, and then she told him everything that Tony said after they met yesterday.

"So, Donnie came to me to talk about this?"

"Yeah." Li Te nodded.

After hearing this, Orson understood what Tony was thinking.

He wanted to sow discord between Orson and Litt by taking advantage of the darkest jealousy in people's hearts and making Litt feel that Orson owed him something in the previous eighteen years, thus making Litt hate Orson.

But, in the final analysis, what he said was a mixture of truth and falsehood, and he included a lot of lies.

The most powerful way to expose lies is the truth.

Orson thought so, looked at Lit, and said seriously: "Lit, do you want to hear the true story about me?"

"A true story?" Li Te asked in confusion, "Could it be possible that there are fake ones?"

"Of course there are fake ones." Orson nodded. "For example, what father publicized to the public, that's fake."

"Although I don't know much about what happened back then, I can tell you my identity."

"Ok?"

"I am indeed not my father's biological son, nor am I adopted as my father has publicized."

As Orson said this, a bolt of thunder struck Litt's heart.

"Orson, what do you mean..."

"Well, what Donnie said might be true. I was indeed picked up by the Duke and was mistaken for an orphan like his child."

"If I hadn't been here, Father would have expanded the search area and might have found you, Leeteuk, directly."

"So, for these eighteen years, it was you, Lit, who suffered in the countryside on my behalf." Orson said this, placing his hand on the back of Lit's hand.

"But, I, Orsen, am not the kind of person who is greedy and does not know how to repay kindness."

"When I attended the banquet yesterday, I saw the infighting within the Bonaventura family. They are obviously blood relatives, but each of them is more sinister than the enemy. I don't want the two of us to end up like this."

"Father raised me and gave me the best education. Now, you are my father's own flesh and blood. I will never harm you."

"On the contrary, I will assist you with all my strength until the day you can ascend to the position of Duke."

Orson said this, looking at Lit with seriousness in his eyes.

"This is not only a way to repay my father, but also my way of making up for your guilt, Li Te... because I should have been the one who suffered."

"If you still don't want to believe it, I'm willing to swear an oath."

"No need." Lit shook his head. "I believe in you, Orson."

As she said this, she smiled.

"If you really wanted to harm me, Orson, you would have had many opportunities, whether in the forest or at other times. It would have been easy for you to get rid of me, but you didn't do it."

"It was me who was suspicious of you, Orson. I didn't tell Orson about the Donnie incident. I was too petty."

As the two men each took a step back, the originally tense atmosphere between the "brothers" was suddenly eased.

If Donny saw this scene, he would definitely be so angry that he would curse Lit for being incompetent.

But Vanlitt was a little ambitious and would not be willing to grow up under Orson's protection.

Seeing that the misunderstanding was resolved, Orson felt relieved, and then he suddenly remembered something.

"So, Li Te, you really haven't hidden anything else from me except this matter about Donnie, right?"

"Yeah, of course." Lit lowered his head and replied in a low voice.

At least for now, Orson must not be allowed to find out that he is a girl.

"Okay." Seeing Litt like this, Orson didn't ask any further questions.

Maybe Leeteuk really hid something, but even the closest couples would keep some things from each other.

As long as it's not a big deal, it's fine.

Thinking of this, Orson started talking about other topics.

"By the way, Li Te, you should have attended Mr. Hecate's class recently, right? How was it?"

"Uh..." Li Te touched his head with a complicated expression.

"That class, how should I put it... Although the course is called 'Basic Alchemy', Teacher Hecatia just gave me an alchemy manual and asked me to study the contents by myself and ask her for help when I encounter something I don't understand."
