Chapter 423
As for other questions?
He didn't dare to ask.
He had prepared a lot of questions about landmines this time, but when he actually stood in front of Orson, he didn't dare to ask any of those carefully prepared questions.
No one wants to be worried about by the student council president, especially when the student council president's energy is still infinite. If he annoys him, he may find an excuse to drop out of school tomorrow.
"Orson." At this moment, Li Te suddenly spoke.
"Lena has some competition invitations from some classmates this afternoon. Do you want to come and take a look?"
"I don't need to do this. If I go, it will make others feel that I am putting pressure on them. If they can't exert their full strength, they will bring trouble to Lena."
"Besides, I believe Lena can handle them easily."
"Hey, then I have to praise Brother Orson for your good taste!" Lena on the side also spoke up at this moment, with a hint of inexplicable pride.
"By the way, Li Te, you and Lena will be classmates from now on. Please take care of Lena more often."
"I know." Lite forced a smile and then nodded.
…
Afternoon, Arena.
Lena stood on the stage, looking at Lianka who was supporting her body with a sword in front of her, trying not to fall down, and showed an apologetic look.
"Yes... I'm sorry! Lianka, I just hit too hard..."
At this moment, Lianka was no longer as calm and elegant as usual, but instead looked extremely embarrassed.
horrible. This is what she said about Lena.
Behind her, the other classmates from the first year class who challenged Lena were already lying on the ground and wailing.
She had just received a punch from Lena, and her body was a little unable to bear it.
In Lianka's view, even if her sister Olivia, whose strength is now extremely close to the seventh level, comes to fight Lena, she will only lose.
Thinking this, she looked at Leeteuk who was standing in the audience but not on stage.
No wonder Leeteuk is reluctant to play. It seems that he knows that the gap between him and Lena cannot be bridged.
But why didn’t Leeteuk tell him in advance? Could it be that Leeteuk wanted to see himself make a fool of himself? !
"No...ahem, it's okay." Lianka said and coughed twice.
"I... I originally thought it would be fine to use 60% of the strength, but now it seems it is still too much..." Lena said with self-reproach.
After all, beating her classmates until they were covered in bruises was not her original intention.
And when Lianka heard what Lena said, her heart became even more unbalanced.
But should I say it or not, there were many people watching this competition.
The audience outside the field couldn't help but sigh a few times when they saw that the number of people on the stage was one-sided, but the battle situation was other-sided.
"Strong girl."
"Are all orcs that scary?"
"No wonder she is so arrogant that she is better than anyone else. I thought she was pretending, but I didn't expect that she is really powerful."
"I'm afraid even Orson can't beat her..."
After this battle, at least in the Imperial Academy, no one would question Lena's fate.
Chapter 46: Bitter wine enters throat
On the other side, Orson and Olivia were in the student union office.
The student union held its first regular meeting of the semester at noon, and then there was a small meeting between the three main student union leaders.
After the meeting, Orson stopped Manuel.
"Classmate Manuel, I'm sorry to trouble you about the previous matter."
Of course, what Orson was talking about was the incident where Manuel was asked to help Chelinina Chamber of Commerce bring down the unfair competition of Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce during the holidays.
"It's nothing." Manuel smiled rarely when he heard this.
"The contribution of the Lissen Chamber of Commerce to the Duchy of Aragon is indeed greater than that of the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce. We are also very happy to cooperate with better businessmen. Even if you don't write that letter to me, Orson-san, I will I will advise my father."
Indeed, between a chamber of commerce that only resells and transships, and a chamber of commerce that actually creates wealth and improves productivity for the duchy, the latter is definitely more conducive to the development of the duchy.
"Miss Chelinina is also among the best. Cooperating with her can only be good for us."
Manuel saw things thoroughly, and it was precisely because of this that he was able to become the executive director of the student union.
"Thank you for taking care of me." Orson said this and said a few more polite words to Manuel, and then Manuel left the office.
Orson and Olivia were the only ones left in the office.
Olivia had been listening to the conversation between Orson and Manuel just now. When she heard about Lissen Chamber of Commerce and Chelinina, she felt something was wrong in her heart.
"Oson, is Lissen Chamber of Commerce, or Chelinina, worthy of your help?" Olivia asked from the side.
"It's worth it." Orson didn't hesitate at all about this question.
"Chelinina has greatly contributed to the development of the Duchy of Antica. If it weren't for her help, the Duchy would have encountered financial problems."
"At the same time, the cooperation between us is not just superficial. She needs to use me to expand her chamber of commerce, and I also need to catch her and help me, or the Duchy of Antica, develop."
"..." Olivia was stunned for a moment when she heard this.
"So, between you and Chelinina, as expected..."
"...I'm sorry, but I might have a way to reject her, but I didn't do that." Orson said this, his tone full of apology.
"I'm sorry, Olivia. After you know this, whether you choose to break off the engagement with me or make my affairs public and ruin my reputation, I will not resist."
"What if I ask you to only like me forever and belong to me forever?"
"..." Orson was silent.
Olivia looked at Orson quietly, and then, as if she had made a huge decision in her heart, she reached out and gently held Orson's hand.
"You also know how I became your fiancée." Olivia said slowly.
"My means of getting to the top are not glorious. Maybe this is my retribution. You are so outstanding. I want to keep you by my side. It is really wishful thinking."
"But, Orson." Olivia said so, holding Orson's face.
"Please don't say that kind of words again in the future, okay?"
Her eyes were shining with tears.
"I didn't think highly of you, that's my fault, but if I break off the engagement with you like this, wouldn't that just help Chelinina?"
"At worst..." Chelinina took a deep breath, and then said: "At worst, I will allow you to have other women around you, but I must be the most important one, isn't that okay?"
"What can Chelinina give you? Money? I have that too, we will inherit the Dukedom of Prussia later, and I can even let you control the power of the Dukedom of Prussia. At least for now, the Dukedom of Prussia is still pretty good, right?"
"With the help of me and Lit, plus you are so outstanding, even if you want to ascend to the forbidden throne, it is not impossible, right?"
Hearing Olivia say this, Orson hurriedly stopped her.
She seemed to have lost her mind a little.
This incident was still a bit too shocking to her.
"Olivia, don't talk about that kind of thing, I didn't think about it that way."
"... Sorry." Olivia also realized at this moment that what she had just said was a bit outrageous, and she regained a bit of her sanity.
"Anyway, Orson, I won't lose. No matter what tricks Chelinina uses on you, I won't lose to her." She said this and kissed Orson on the cheek.
"I feel that I am not in a good state now. I need to be alone. Orson, I'm sorry..."
"It's okay." Orson shook his head.
Then, Olivia walked out of the office.
Both of them need some time to be quiet.
In the evening, Lit took Lena back to the dormitory. Along the way, Lit was still upset about Lena's reckless fight in the afternoon.
Lena was wronged by what she said, and her ears and tail drooped down.
Lit took Lena back to her dormitory first, and then she saw Orson drinking alone at the dining table.
"Orson, what are you doing..."
"Ah, Lit, Lena, you are back." Orson said this, without moving his eyes, and there was a hint of fatigue in his tone.
Seeing this scene, Lena quickly pulled Lit out.
Then, she stood on tiptoe and whispered in Lit's ear: "Brother Lit, why do I always feel that Brother Orson is not in a good condition?"
"It's true that he is a little bit not in a good condition. He seems to be in a low mood." Lit said this and nodded.
In such a long time with Orson, Lit had never seen Orson in this state.
Usually, even if Orson was tired, he would try to cheer up when he came back, and he never liked to drink in the dormitory.
And today, Orson exuded a decadent atmosphere for some reason, coupled with the bitter wine in his throat, it was like... he was heartbroken.
"Well... since the big brother is not in a good mood, I will go back to my dormitory first, brother Lit, you go back and comfort the big brother." Lena said this, fearing that her steps would disturb Orson, and walked back to her room carefully and tiptoeingly.
"Orson?" Lit walked to Orson and sat down.
Feeling the smell of alcohol on Orson, Lit frowned.
He seemed to have drunk quite a bit?
"What's wrong?"
But from Orson's tone, he didn't seem drunk.
"Are you... unhappy?"
"Yeah, a little bit." Orson nodded. "Sorry, Lit, you may have to eat dinner alone tonight. I'll go upstairs and rest later. I won't disturb you."
"Please help me clean up the table." After saying that, Orson went upstairs.
Lit looked at Orson's back and fell into silence.
Chapter 47: Promise Me
At night, Lit met Lianka in a cafe.
"What a coincidence, Lit, I just happened to have something to talk to you about." Lianka said as soon as she sat down.
"Well, how about you talk first?"
"Okay." Lianka nodded after hearing this, and then got straight to the point.
"Lite, didn't your brother Orson go too far? My sister locked herself in the room again after returning home today, so I had no food to eat when I returned to the dormitory."
"Huh?" Litt looked puzzled when she heard this, and then she retorted: "No... Orson was obviously very unhappy in the dormitory today, isn't it your sister Olivia's problem?"
"Ah?" Lianka was also stunned.
"Wait a minute, I think there may be a misunderstanding between us. Let's sort out what happened first." Litt said this, and told Lianka what he saw after he and Lena returned to the dormitory today.
"But what was the performance of the sister after she went back?" Lianka frowned after hearing Litt's story, and then told Litt about Olivia's suspicion that Orson had another woman.
When Litt heard the name of Cherylina, he knew that he had messed up.
Could it be that sister Cherylina really went A and was discovered by Olivia?
The two of them fell into a strange silence.
Originally, they thought that their family members were wronged and came with a little anger, but now it seems that both of them are victims.
The anger that wanted to vent could only shrink back.
"They didn't have any conflicts or quarrels, did they?" Litt asked in a low voice after a long time.
"I feel the same way." Lianka said solemnly. "After all, apart from emotional problems, I have never seen my sister so lost."
"What should I do?"
"You ask me, I don't know. I have never been in a relationship, how can I know how to deal with this situation."
