"You really think I'm like Selena, the kind of person who can't resist handsome guys?"
"No, I'm just a little surprised that you would say such things. Have you been influenced by Selena?"
Yuan Hua shrugged.
"You can understand that."
Catherine nodded slightly, her smile not diminishing.
"Let's go, let's buy some more novels and comic books, then we can go home."
Catherine's eyes were filled with longing for the bookstore.
"You don't seem like the type to love reading at all. You're not some weirdo..."
Yuan Hua's expression gradually turned strange...
"A gentleman will not test a young girl's limits."
Catherine glanced at Yuan Hua briefly.
"Let me think, there seems to be a certain type of novel that's quite popular lately."
"If it's aimed at girls, then there's no need to say anything more."
Yuan Hua sighed helplessly.
"I don't like reading books about domineering CEOs or the like."
"Hmm... let me think about it."
Catherine walked to the bookstore and picked up a book at random.
"A powerful foreign prince infiltrated the duke's mansion as a servant, just to catch a glimpse of the young lady from afar. Through a series of coincidences, the foreign prince and the young lady fell in love. After overcoming numerous obstacles, the prince finally won the heart of his beloved..."
"What kind of weird writing style is this?"
Yuan Hua put down the bags he was carrying and picked up a book from the cabinet that was the same one Catherine was holding.
"If an author with this kind of writing style were in my hometown, they wouldn't even be able to get a hot toilet."
Why do outhouses need to be warm?
Catherine looked at Yuan Hua with a puzzled expression.
"It's nothing, just a slip of the tongue, you misheard me."
Yuan Hua shook his head, thankfully he stopped himself from talking.
"That's about enough, we should go home, it's getting dark."
Yuan Hua's mind is now completely focused on Lady Dolly. He also has to visit other noble ladies later. How should he start the conversation?
Madam, you wouldn't want your husband to know you attended the party, would you?
"Okay, okay, this is so annoying, like you're rushing to heaven. Boss, how much is this?"
……
"Ascension, have you finished organizing everything for me?"
"It's all sorted out. There's one person who lives nearby, and she's a widowed noblewoman."
"I understand attending parties like this, fine, she's the one. Send me her address."
Soon, Yuan Hua received the information transmitted from the Ascension side.
"Sister Shama, I might have to go out for a bit, so you don't need to prepare dinner for me."
"Are you sure? I prepared a very lavish meal!"
Seeing Yuan Hua hurriedly drop his schoolbag and run out, Shama poked her head out from the kitchen.
"..."
"This child..."
……
The aftermath of the sea voyage:
The first message she sent me was: I suddenly want to be in a relationship. After thinking it over, I think you care about me the most. Why don't we try being together?
Chapter 167 How to extract a confession?
"What a small courtyard! It doesn't look like a noble's courtyard at all."
Yuan Hua looked around.
The courtyard wasn't large, but it was filled with carefully tended flowers, showing that the homeowner had a great appreciation for the finer things in life.
"The owner of this house was Lady Domèma. Her husband died in battle, and she inherited his property. To prevent her wealth from being targeted by malicious individuals, Domèma sold her original mansion and moved to a more secluded part of the city."
“I can understand that.”
Yuan Hua nodded slightly.
Western culture is extremely aggressive, and it is very difficult for a woman, especially a widow, to gain a foothold in society. Many noble widows would donate their property to the church in order to seek protection.
It's already very rare for someone like Domari to survive independently.
"Oh, right, I'm telling you beforehand."
Ascension suddenly appeared.
"Although Mrs. Domary was a member of the farm tool party, she always maintained a pure and lovely image in the eyes of outsiders."
"Yeah, I know that."
Yuan Hua's lips slowly curled into a smile...
"We commonly call this type of person a 'contrast bitch'."
"Alright, put on your mask and straw hat, and go knock on the door."
Feisheng tossed the mask and bamboo hat to Yuan Hua.
……
Thump—thump—thump—thump—thump—
Yuan Hua gently tapped the door open, giving a "three long, two short" sound.
"Who?"
A gentle female voice came from inside the house. Soon, the door was opened, and a beautiful woman with charming features and luxurious clothes walked out of the house, her eyes meeting Yuan Hua's.
"Who...are you...?"
Seeing that Yuan Hua was completely covered up, Mrs. Domma immediately became nervous...
"You don't need to know that."
Yuan Hua slowly put on the gloves, and magic exploded, forcefully suppressing Lady Domma to the ground, forcing her to kneel...
"Be honest, I work for the royal palace."
As the oppressive aura dissipated, Lady Domma shakily raised her head, meeting Yuan Hua's murderous gaze...
"No...don't kill me...I'm just a poor widow...I haven't done anything wrong..."
Domma's voice was trembling with sobs; she looked terrified.
“If I hadn’t done anything wrong, I wouldn’t have come looking for me.”
Yuan Hua walked into the room, looked around, and saw that the furnishings were very neat and tidy...
"It's obvious that you're a very clean person."
Yuan Hua turned to look at Dom Mary behind him. Dom Mary had already stood up, trembling uncontrollably...
"Yes, it is……"
Doma swallowed hard...
"What are you afraid of?"
The magic surged once more, and Yuan Hua relentlessly pressured Doma, using his absolute power and the threat of death to constantly erode Lady Doma's psychological defenses.
Yuan Hua wouldn't be foolish enough to ask directly, to interrogate her as soon as she came in. She might not admit it, and even if she produced evidence, what she said might not be the truth.
When people are being interrogated and are unsure of what the other party is asking, they will instinctively recall the most serious thing they have ever done, and then dodge that matter to reveal some insignificant mistakes.
Because the people being interrogated are telling the truth, they speak much more naturally, unlike lies which are full of holes.
In this situation, the best approach is to remain silent, because silence is like a pair of large hands constantly kneading a sponge until it's completely drained...
"Tell me what stupid things you've done. Don't wait until I tell you, or the consequences will be unbearable for you."
Yuan Hua sat on the table and crossed his legs.
"I...I am...I admit it, I have a pedophilic tendency, I did use money to lure some innocent children, I am guilty..."
Domma clasped her hands together and knelt down...
"I shouldn't have seduced the children of other nobles, but... but all I wanted was someone who loved me..."
"hiss--"
Yuan Hua gasped...
Good heavens, that's an even bigger offense.
"Are you taking me for an idiot?"
Yuan Hua's tone became a bit somber; he wanted to see what other exciting things he could squeeze out of Mrs. Dom Mary.
Do you think the royal palace would bother with such trivial matters?
"Huh? Seducing the prince is a trivial matter?"
Mrs. Domma paused for a moment, then looked up at Yuan Hua…
"???"
An even more serious crime? This is a death sentence! Execute it immediately!
