I am just an ordinary person! Why do you like me?

When Zhou Yurou saw Miss Bai Jiegeng, who looked quite similar to Shi Chenchen, she didn't think too much about it.

After all, Chenchen said that she didn’t have time to watch a movie on Saturday.

And if you look closely, this person is actually a little different from Chenchen.

Chenchen usually seems reluctant to show up, and she seems not used to appearing in front of so many people.

So no matter what he does, he likes to act together with her, Ou Muchin and Chu Lan.

But the Miss Bai Jiejing in front of him had gentle eyes and a pale face, and looked like she would faint at any moment, but...

She always gave her a very contradictory feeling.

That feeling... is like the big boss behind the whole movie, who is usually low-key but seems to have every situation under control.

Even though the two look 70% similar, the person in front of me should not be Chenchen.

...

Seeing Wen Zhi's reaction, Shi Chenchen was a little confused for a moment.

She could see through Ou Muchin's 'actor' disguise at a glance yesterday, and she could also tell at a glance that the man in the flower garden was Gu Wang.

But now she couldn't see clearly the man in front of her...

Is he Wen Zhi in the real world?

His face looked exactly the same as in real life, but now his whole person gave her a different feeling.

It was as if he was the native of this world.

Not at all like an 'actor' from another world.

His every move was elegant and noble.

When he was polishing the sword just now, Shi Chenchen observed that when he slowly polished the tip of the sword, he would pause for a short while, stroking it carefully.

His eyes were lowered, as if... he wanted to wipe the blood off them.

After wiping the sword, he turned it neatly and inserted it into the sword case beside his waist tightly. The movement was very quick and smooth.

All these small details are very consistent with his current identity as a knight.

He stood up, now wearing a black riding suit, standing tall in the room.

It seemed as if he had just come back from outside this morning, still with a bit of dampness and coldness from the morning dew outside.

He smiled and looked at Shi Chenchen in front of him, his eyes still indifferent and calm, with the corners of his lips raised, he looked down upon the so-called 'sister' in front of him.

Then he looked at his father, smiled and nodded, "Okay, Dad."

"I will—"

"I will protect my 'sister'."

...

Shi Chenchen followed the maids to the cloakroom.

On the way, she said nothing and walked forward with her eyes lowered.

The head maid beside him looked at the pale-faced Miss Bai Kikyo with worry in her eyes and asked:

"Miss Bai Kikyo, are you feeling unwell? If you are, please let us know and I will ask the Earl for you."

Maybe, I don’t have to participate in today’s hunting competition.

Today's hunting competition is a competition organized by the royal family every spring.

In this competition, everyone will use bows and arrows to hunt wild beasts.

This is not just about friendly exchanges between nobles in the main city and the border towns.

He also wanted to use this method to announce to the common people that the empire is powerful.

Looking at the head maid who was looking at him worriedly, Shi Chenchen smiled reluctantly and said softly, "I'll be fine... When the time comes, I'll just sit in the hunting ground and watch, and I won't go out."

"Besides, I'll still have my brother by then."

Upon hearing this, the head maid nodded with relief. Yes, there is also the young master of the Earl's Mansion, Miss Bai Kikyo's brother.

When the time comes, he will definitely protect Miss Bai Kikyo.

The head maid also breathed a sigh of relief, came to the corner, smiled and pointed the way: "Miss, here."

Shi Chenchen said nothing, but it wasn't because he was feeling unwell.

In fact, she was asking the system in her mind.

"System, do you know...what's going on with Wen Zhi?"

[Detected that the host is asking a question, searching for the answer...]

[—— Found the answer. Wen Zhi is the brother of Miss White Kikyo. There is nothing wrong with his appearance. Like many of the indigenous people in this world, he is also a plot character.]

Shi Chenchen was following the footsteps of the head maid in front of him, frowned, and then asked in his mind:

"But...why does Wen Zhi look exactly like he does in real life?"

[Host, this question is not in my question bank. If you have more questions, you can directly ask the main screenwriter of this movie - Yi Xingchen]

Shi Chenchen raised her eyebrows inexplicably, and she remained silent.

The system is clearly the protagonist of this world, but it sometimes 'understands' and sometimes 'doesn't understand'.

Now the problem is thrown directly onto Yi Xingchen, and it can hide behind it.

But Shi Chenchen didn't think too much about it.

—Because, now it was on her mind.

...

Came to the hunting ground with Wen Zhi.

Located in the Avondale Mountains, it has beautiful natural scenery, a very good ecological environment, and maintains a very original natural landscape.

Just now, I looked down from my private car and saw that there are many freshwater lakes and mountains and forests everywhere.

The area is very vast, and the royal hunting ground here is located on a plain in this mountain range, with a lot of forest resources nearby.

Of course, there are also many wild animals, such as hares, red deer, etc.

Even more dangerous are wild boars, tigers, and brown bears, which are all extremely ferocious and powerful animals.

The hunting ground is very large, covering an area of ​​almost three million square meters.

Shi Chenchen came to the hunting ground, where many large tents had been built.

As far as Shi Chenchen could see, there were already thousands of people.

Most of them were servants following the nobles, but there were probably only a hundred or so people who actually participated in the hunting competition.

Shi Chenchen looked at Wen Zhi who was standing beside him. Just now in the private car, there was no word exchanged between the two of them.

He didn't seem to be happy or angry about her appearance.

He always had a faint smile on his face, but the depth of that smile was not visible in his eyes.

When you suddenly look into his eyes, you can't help but shudder.

Shi Chenchen unconsciously looked away, and a feeling of discomfort surged in his heart.

She subconsciously paused for a step, wanting to keep some distance from Wen Zhi who was standing beside her.

Wen Zhi inconspicuously saw the girl who had just walked side by side with him, now following behind him.

He smiled without comment, seemingly not caring about this little detail.

However, his pace still slowed down unconsciously.

The two of them came to the center of the hunting ground, which was an open-air venue. The nobles on the ground were divided into two rows on the left and right, and the position in the middle was reserved for the royal children.

For example, His Highness the Son of God yesterday was one of them.

At this time, there were already quite a few noble ministers sitting on the field.

And not far away, there was a group of noble ladies greeting each other.

Shi Chenchen noticed that the nobles from the main city were all sitting in the front row, and each of them was dressed very exquisitely and elegantly.

Although they did not show how many jewels were on their clothes, one could feel their low-key luxury from the workmanship details and material fabrics of the clothes.

The nobles from the border town sat in the back two rows.

There was not much communication between the two sides. Even though neither group said anything, Shi Chenchen could feel that the people in the main city had a subtle sense of sarcasm towards the nobles in the border city.

It seemed that they felt that these nobles from the border towns were not worthy of appearing with them in this hunting competition.

The gentry and nobles in the border town were extremely fawning on their faces and would flatter the nobles sitting in the front row from time to time.

From time to time, she would bring her daughter to meet these nobles, or rather, to meet their sons.

After all, if their daughter could marry into the main urban area, even if their family could not enter the main urban area now, with such a son-in-law, their status in the border town would be greatly improved.

It seems that this hunting competition did not achieve the goals that the royal family wanted to achieve.

Everyone has formed their own self-consistent chain of contempt.

There are class differences between the nobles in the main city, and there are also differences between the nobles in the main city and the gentry in the border cities.

From this, we can also infer that there must be a huge gap between the gentry in the border town and the local civilians.

This world is a monarchy society with strict class divisions.

All power points to the support of the royal family who are in a high position of power.

It is now the transition period between spring and summer. Tender leaves have just grown on the grass, and the whole lawn is full of vitality.

It looks completely different from the world full of cold machines in the main city.

It seems like this place has not been developed much by humans.

However, this may also be to prevent the civilians in the border town from being exposed to the world in the main urban area, so that they can remain content with being ordinary and stay in the relatively backward border town.

The purpose of this hunting competition is to allow civilians to feel the power of the empire.

Perhaps, this is not a shot in the arm for civilians, but... a deterrent procedure.

Shi Chenchen looked at the king sitting in the center.

The king of the empire is nearly fifty years old. His face looks very kind, and one can vaguely see how handsome and dashing he was in his youth.

His smiling face showed that he was completely devoted to the people, but his eyes were heavy and sharp.

It is an aura that comes with the royal family, which is majestic and ambitious without any anger.

Shi Chenchen only took a glance and did not pay any further attention. After all, staring at His Majesty the King all the time was not in line with the rules and was not in line with his character.

Moreover, it will attract the attention of others.

Yi Xingchen, the Son of God, sat in a seat on the lower side.

He was dressed in riding clothes and looked as if he would go hunting with us soon.

Shi Chenchen thought that as His Royal Highness the Son of God, he should be gentle and kind, and would not be involved in such murderous matters.

The orange-gold sunlight from the side poured down on him, outlining the profile of the man in the main seat in extremely three-dimensional detail.

He slowly picked up the exquisite cup beside him and drank leisurely.

Although his long black hair was tied back at the back of his head, there were still a few strands of hair floating in front of him. The slightly fluttering curves were like feathers, tickling the hearts of the noble ladies present.

Shi Chenchen looked around and saw that all the noble ladies present, whether from the main city or the border town, were secretly glancing at His Royal Highness the Son of God, who was most likely to become the next king.

Who doesn’t know the deeds of His Majesty the Son of God?

Therefore, many noble ladies were looking shyly at His Highness the Son of God on the stage.

Shi Chenchen followed Wen Zhi in front, and they both arrived at their positions together.

She saw Ou Muchin not far away. She had a cold expression and seemed not to like this kind of occasion, but she couldn't resist the noble ladies around her who kept following her.

Everyone knows that as long as the hidden engagement between Ou Muchin and Lord Son of God exists, there will always be many people around her.

So, Shi Chenchen lowered his eyes and said to Wen Zhi in front of him: "Brother, I saw Miss Qin who danced with me at the birthday party last night. Can I go find her?"

Upon hearing this, Wen Zhi looked over to a place not far away where Ou Muchin, dressed in a red riding suit, was talking with his friends.

He looked at Shi Chenchen, who seemed afraid to look at him, for a few seconds, and smiled meaningfully. He nodded and instructed:

"Okay, stay safe."

Shi Chenchen turned and walked towards Ou Muchin who was not far away.

...

On the other side, Ou Muchin was being annoyed. She had a cold look on her face, and seemed to show surprise.

She had already thought of using the excuse of going to the toilet to get rid of these noble ladies.

There were some young ladies around Ou Muchin who were very observant and saw that Miss Qin was looking unhappy.

They saw Miss White Kikyo approaching them not far away.

They understood what she meant immediately and thought that Miss Qin was in a bad mood today because she saw Miss Bai Jiegeng.

One of them was the Viscountess from yesterday. Miss Felloni looked at Shi Chenchen not far away and said in a slightly louder voice that both of them could hear:

"This Miss Bai Kikyo is really out of line. She knew that His Royal Highness Shen Zi was Miss Qin's fiancé, but she still invited His Royal Highness Shen Zi to the first dance yesterday."

You know, at a dance, the first male partner usually invited is either a close relative, or...

It is the person you like, or you can say your fiancé.

Yesterday, Miss Bai Kikyo actually invited His Royal Highness the Son of God so openly, which was simply a huge rubbish on Miss Qin's face.

It was equivalent to declaring that she formally issued a "challenge" invitation to Miss Qin.

There were some young ladies from the border town around. After hearing what Felloni said, they immediately looked at Miss Bai Kikyo who was not far away with hostility.

They were not eligible to attend Miss White Angelica's birthday party yesterday, so they didn't know about this matter.

Although, they were secretly jealous that Miss Qin could marry into the royal family.

But they also did not allow Miss White Kikyo, who suddenly became the Earl's adopted daughter,

Coveting the noble Son of God.
