"But don't worry, you weren't exposed, because he muttered about lace behind your back," the head maid said.

"..." Lorenwei rolled her eyes. The head maid had just lifted her skirt and naturally knew what style she was wearing. Therefore, the head maid was certain that the Second Prince was just being sarcastic and hadn't actually seen anything under his skirt.

"So, the Second Prince was just showing off," the female warrior said thoughtfully.

"Hmm? Showing off? It seems..." The female officer approached her, nodded in agreement, "That makes some sense."

"Hmph, this is an idea I just came up with. Weiwei just taught me, let me tell you..." The female warrior pulled the female affairs officer aside and began to whisper.

The female administrator couldn't suppress her surprise: "No way? The Second Prince actually has an inferiority complex? Ah, come to think of it, it's really possible. We tempted him so much back then, but he still chickened out. Maybe it really is..."

"What on earth are these young people doing?" The head maid rubbed her forehead, looking worried.

Lorenwei thought to herself: Sure enough, it's wishful thinking to expect a woman to keep a gossip secret.

"Why are you still eating?" the head maid scolded Lorenwei.

Then Lorenwei's explanation entered a new cycle.

"Ahem." At this moment, the Second Prince's voice suddenly came.

Lorenwei stood up.

Under the protection of several guards, the second prince strode in from outside. There were no bruises on his chin, indicating that the magical treatment had gone smoothly.

He seemed a little afraid that Lorenwei would kick him again, and stared at Lorenwei for a long time without saying a word.

"Aren't you going to apologize to the Second Prince?" The female warrior, who had a good impression of Lorenwei from the beginning, quickly reminded her.

Just as Lorenwei was about to step forward to speak, the Second Prince waved his hand, his gaze still fixed on Lorenwei, looking her up and down.

Lorenwei instinctively wanted to back away.

Although the other person's gaze wasn't the kind that wanted to lick you clean, it was sly as if they really could discover something.

"Weiwei?" The Second Prince narrowed his eyes.

His gaze lingered longest on Lorenwei's blue hair and fair hands.

"Your Highness, this subordinate requests that this maid be punished." The head maid stepped forward to plead.

“No, I want to punish her myself.” The Second Prince seemed to be thinking about something, then suddenly said, “Wait here for me for a while.”

He turned and left, returning to his tent.

"..." Everyone was puzzled.

Several guards followed the second prince back in a panic. They had already failed in their duty.

"You all go out and guard outside the main tent. Don't come in unless necessary." But the second prince quickly chased the guards out again.

"Have her change into the outfit I designed and come to my back tent," the Second Prince's voice came.

"That outfit?" The head maid was taken aback.

After hesitating for a moment, she rummaged through her luggage. She quickly pulled out a transparent and very interesting garment.

"I knew he was up to no good!" the female warrior gritted her teeth.

The female administrator was also quite annoyed: "We weren't even allowed to wear this dress!"

"..." Hey, aren't you two a little off?! Lorenwei really wanted to complain about whether there was something wrong with the young woman next to the Second Prince.

She had no idea that both of them had tried to give her away to the Second Prince for free but failed, and they had long harbored resentment.

"The Second Prince wants you to put this on." The head maid handed the clothes to Lorenwei, her tone leaving no room for argument.

This transparent garment is definitely made of sheer fabric...

“We made a promise that he can’t touch me,” Lorenwei said seriously.

“I didn’t touch you, I just told you to put it on.” The head maid found a loophole in the agreement.

“…” Lorenwei took it and put it on.

"Pfft—" The female warrior and the female administrator couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh.

Because Lorenwei wore it directly over her maid outfit, the sheer fabric became the outer lining of the garment, which surprisingly complemented the maid outfit perfectly.

"..." The head maid had no rebuttal. She had found a loophole in the agreement, and the other party was actually retaliating against her.

Lorenwei strode towards the back tent.

The rear tent, where the Second Prince lived, was filled with a faint scent of orchids. Sunlight streamed through the tent, but the magic crystal candles were still lit.

"You've arrived." The Second Prince actually sat upright in a chair, not waiting on the bed, and pointed to a chair with his neat clothes: "Sit down."

"..." Lorenwei felt a little strange and didn't dare to sit down.

For the first time in a long time, she felt that the situation was out of her control.

“Sit down. Is it that a maid wouldn’t dare sit before the Second Prince? But you’re not a maid, and your status is high enough to allow you to sit as equals to me,” the Second Prince chuckled. “After all, you are a descendant of heroes, aren’t you, Lorenwei…”

Chapter 197 The simplest way to prove Lorenve: I'll give you money, you show me...

The moment the name Lorenwei was uttered, the Second Prince Kendi paid close attention to Lorenwei's reaction.

Without flinching or panicking, the maid named Vivi acted as if she had been called by the wrong name or was being addressed by someone else, and even looked around in confusion.

"What are you looking at? I'm calling you." The Second Prince maintained his smile.

"???" Lorenwei stared at him without blinking, her eyes filled with confusion. "Second Prince, did I kick you so hard you went mad? Or have you been with too many women and called me by the wrong name?"

At this moment, Lorenwei wanted to say that he had played around with too many women, but it seemed that if she said that, she would be at a disadvantage for no reason, so she decided not to say it.

"Ahem, don't pretend, I see through your disguise." The Second Prince coughed lightly.

“If you want to find an excuse to kill me, you don’t have to give me a name. My family doesn’t have the power to take revenge on you. What hero’s descendant? It seems that even a merchant who sells magic potions can’t be considered a hero.” Lorenwei sat down in the chair on her own, sitting on equal footing with the Second Prince. “But you asked me to sit down. Regardless of whether the reason is valid or not, I am a person who listens to His Highness the Second Prince, so I sat down.”

“I even told you to come in wearing a sheer dress, oh... you did, fine, you're obedient.”

"What? Doesn't it look good?" Lorenwei gently stretched her arms, deliberately swaying the hem of her sheer dress. "Doesn't it look good?"

"...How could there be such a bold commoner as you?"

“There are plenty of daring people out there, but your men will stop them beforehand, so you won’t see them on a regular basis.”

"You're really good at talking back."

"Because I don't want to be talked back to."

"That sentence made me think of something inappropriate..." The Second Prince revealed a lewd smile.

Damn, I'm usually the one flirting with girls, but today I feel like I'm the one being flirted with. Lorenwei rolled her eyes: "...If you keep saying that, be careful those girls who are eavesdropping outside come in and beat you up."

A slight sound came from outside the tent's makeshift door, clearly startling the women who had been eavesdropping.

Hmph, with that kind of mentality, they dare to mess around in society? Lorenwei, who hadn't changed her expression even when her real name was called out, felt contempt for the Second Prince's trio.

"You actually understood?!" The Second Prince exclaimed in surprise. "The head maid wouldn't allow women into my private quarters. How could a young girl like you know so much? Could it be that you really..."

“I am not,” Lorenwei said calmly.

"Haha, I mean you've really read a lot of those little notebooks." The Second Prince winked at Lorenwei, "You know, the kind that circulate in the marketplace, the kind that makes you blush and your heart race..."

"You have quite a few of these good things?" Lorenwei pouted.

When I was in Zerou City, I saw people promoting it. I even considered buying a few to read, but at the time my style was more girlish, and I had nowhere to hide them at home.

Think about it, even the little bit of private money that the Great Sage hid could be found by his mother, Aisser, like a landmine. How could such a little notebook possibly have any place in the world? So from the very beginning, Lorenwei gave up on buying it.

"No, I only looked for half a day before it was found." The second prince looked aggrieved, almost on the verge of tears. "There are two tigresses in the house. They can't hide anything good. I don't know why women are so powerful. They can find anything they've hidden."

Lorenwei wholeheartedly agreed, nodding vigorously: "Exactly, exactly! Women's ability to search for and hide things is just too amazing; they've practically maxed out all their innate skill points."

Although the second prince didn't understand what skill points were, he knew that the other party agreed with his idea.

The two seemed to have a mutual respect for each other, both crossing their arms and nodding in agreement with resignation.

If there were any onlookers present, they would be surprised to find that the two nodded in perfect unison, almost as if they were doing it in sync.

Then, they both noticed that they had made the same movement in perfect unison.

"Huh? We're on the same wavelength?" the Second Prince tried to get closer to him.

"No, it's that our ways of thinking are very similar."

The second prince looked at Lorenwei and said, "Hey, have you ever thought that we are actually very much destined for each other?"

"No."

"Now you can think about it some more."

“It’s not that I haven’t thought about it, but that we simply don’t have the right connection,” Lorenwei said. “You are my employer, and you pay me one gold coin a day. That price doesn’t allow me to have any unrealistic expectations.”

"You just want a higher price? Or are you pursuing some ideal of climbing the social ladder?"

"Working is for making money. Don't talk to me about ideals. My ideal is not to work."

"That seems to make sense. So, if we're destined to meet, what price would you charge? Ten gold coins a day? One hundred gold coins?"

Lorenwei thought for a moment, unsure how to describe it, and casually said, "Take whatever you want from the Royal Treasury of the Fite Empire."

"...I want to too." The second prince looked miserable.

“Who wouldn’t want that? Hahaha,” Lorenwei said. “So let’s maintain our current employment relationship. I’ll take my gold coins, and you hire me to stay by your side, how about that?”

"But having a descendant of a hero by my side for only one gold coin a day seems like too good to be true."

"Still trying to get away with this?"

"Just admit it."

Why should we admit it?

The second prince grinned maliciously: "If you don't admit it, don't blame me for forcing you."

"What can you do to force me? Use force?"

The second prince's smile grew increasingly sinister. The enhanced light from the magic crystal lamp cast a long shadow of his strong male body inside the tent: "Then I'll have to use some tricks that Lorenwei can't accept!"

“…I never imagined the Second Prince would be this kind of person.” Lorenwei responded calmly.

"Hahaha! Admit it or not? If you don't, I'll really make my move!"

Lorenwei shrugged: "You make your move."
