Chapter 45 I'll Walk With You
"Yes."

Ghana, who was waiting not far away, immediately took action. As the most capable assistant by his master's side, his execution ability was naturally quite strong.

Soon, a visiting card was delivered to the reception room of the First Legion base. Only three minutes had passed since Phil raised his questions.

Phil: "..."

A faint silver light flashed behind the boy, his wings retracted, and he landed slowly, but he held Jiang Nuo's hand tightly and did not let go. He smiled and said, "Why don't you come with me to the reception room to talk, Mr. Phil, so that we don't just sit here and let others watch the show for nothing?"

As he spoke, Theo glanced in a certain direction, where Brian and Euan were standing.

"Humph."

Phil snorted irritably and said, "Those two are just looking for trouble."

……

Not far away, Brian and Euan stood still, but neither of them showed any intention of going over.

"Aren't we going to do anything about it?" Yu'an asked.

Their secret collective mission here was actually to keep an eye on that little female. Now that someone wants to take her away, according to the orders given by the temple master, they should stop them.

"Manage? How can we manage? Don't you even know who he is? Theo Castile, one of the best among the ninth-tier royal beasts. Even the Palace Master suffered a great loss at his hands. Not to mention Phil is there too. The Palace Master's order was based on the return of his clone. When he was at his peak, we could lend him a hand. But now, neither of us can fight him."

Brian stretched and turned to leave, saying, "I think you're captivated by that little female and don't want her to leave, right? If you want to take care of it, go ahead and do it yourself. I'll cheer you on."

"..."

Look, is this human language?
Yu An stood there speechless for a moment.

……

On the way to the meeting room.

Jiang Nuo felt the atmosphere was incredibly awkward.

One was holding her, and the other was holding her hand.

Passing crowds were all staring at him; the rate of people turning their heads to look at him had reached 1000%.

But the two males beside her acted as if nothing was wrong, completely unconcerned about what others thought. She was sandwiched between them, like a bewildered little white rabbit.

"Phil, why don't you put me down?" the girl asked tentatively. "I can walk by myself."

Although it was just an unintentional remark, Phil's heart began to tip, because Xiao Nuo only told him to put her down, but didn't tell Theo to let go of her hand. It seemed that he was still inferior to Theo.

But thinking about this, Phil couldn't help but feel annoyed. How could he even be so competitive about this?
When did he become so childish?

“Xiao Nuo, I carried you out, so of course I have to carry you back.” Phil’s words were unclear, whether he was replying to the girl or speaking to the male next to him.

……

Inside the reception room.

Tea had already been prepared. Jiang Nuo sat between the two of them. Although the air was quiet, she felt as if there was a hint of tension in the air.

"Master, this is a visiting card."

Secretary Garner placed the invitation, which had been prepared beforehand, on the table. The young man gently pushed it towards Phil, saying, "Does this count as greeting Mr. Phil?"

Phil picked up the visiting card and tossed it aside without even looking at it: "You're really sincere." It was clearly sarcastic.

The boy didn't mind Phil's attitude at all. Instead, he picked up the teacup, felt the water temperature, and then brought it to the girl's lips: "Nuonuo, it's not hot anymore."

"..."

The male on the other side was immediately enraged. As expected of a pampered and refined person from the virtual star country, he was even better at seducing females than the people in his legion.

"Mmm, it's delicious." Jiang Nuo took a small sip and smiled in approval.

"Xiao Nuo, this is some tea I just had prepared. If you like it, I'll give you some more to take with you," Phil couldn't help but say from the side.

Before Jiang Nuo could answer, the young man chuckled and mercilessly exposed her: "The tea that Mr. Phil prepared should be the famous Starlight Dew. Its taste is indeed top-notch. In the trading area of ​​my virtual star kingdom, this is the best-selling tea. Whenever Mr. Phil comes to buy it again, I can give you a 9% discount."

"..."

Upon hearing this, not only Phil, but even his secretary Garner standing behind him couldn't help but laugh.

The virtual star kingdom permeates the entire interstellar entertainment and lifestyle sector, and controls the largest trading market. What can't it have?
But this scene is just so funny.

"You—" Phil, whose plan had been foiled, glared with his fierce eyes, the fire in them burning the boy to ashes, the kind of fire he simply couldn't stand.

"Uh." Jiang Nuo sensed something was wrong and quickly put her arms around one of them, saying softly, "It's all good, it's all very good. Phil, the tea you prepared is delicious. Theo, Phil is just expressing his feelings, we can accept it."

But when Phil heard the word "we," he clenched his fists tightly. He felt ruthlessly excluded from this trio.

“Nuonuo is right, then we’ll accept it.”

The boy's voice softened, and then he said to Phil, "Alright, let's get back to the main topic. General Phil, according to federal law, the legion base does have the right to temporarily house rescued females before they return to their original families. However, Nuonuo's situation is a bit special. She has no family. Under these circumstances, as the father of the child in her womb, I have the right to take her away. This regulation is correct, isn't it?"

The boy's voice was clear and bright, but it sounded so harsh to Phil. He was planning to send Xiao Nuo away, but deep down he was very unwilling.

Especially since the other party brazenly invoked federal regulations, wasn't it just to show that taking Xiao Nuo away from here was perfectly legitimate?

"I'm sorry, I'm worried."

Upon hearing this, the boy's brows furrowed instantly, and even Jiang Nuo looked at Phil with a puzzled expression.

Didn't we agree on this beforehand?
“Phil, you before—” But just as the girl was about to speak, she saw the man’s eyes filled with grievance and reluctance, like a pitiful big cat, which made Jiang Nuo swallow the words that were on the tip of her tongue.

What are you worried about?

Hearing the boy's question, Phil replied, "There are many things I'm worried about. For example, in an incident like this one, will Xiao Nuo be taken away from under your nose again? Or, Xiao Nuo is pregnant now, and her bloodline is that of the Castile family. Everyone knows your relationship with your family. Can you guarantee that your family won't have designs on the child?"

Upon hearing this, Theo's expression instantly turned serious, and his tone became cold: "This is between Nuonuo and me, it has nothing to do with you."

He will definitely protect Nuonuo and the child, but he doesn't need other males to interfere.

"Hmph, I don't believe you."

"Then what do you want?!"

Sitting in the middle, Jiang Nuo listened to the back-and-forth exchanges between the two sides and felt extremely helpless.

Phil suddenly stood up, took the girl's hand from the other side, and said solemnly, "Since I promised to send Xiao Nuo away, I will not go back on my word. But to ensure Xiao Nuo's safety, I will go with you."
