Chapter 329 - Hated By the Princess
Chapter 329 Hated By the Princess
No one had thought that Xiao Bing would be the one to stand up to stop Princess Nami. After all, Xiao Bing had fought with Nakamura. If Nakamura had not died, Xiao Bing would probably have died. He had no reason to put in a good word for Nakamura. On the other hand, he won the final victory and Princess Nami was about to become his master. As a result, it was obviously unwise to offend Princess Nami, before he even started working for her.
Besides, Princess Nami was such a distinguished person. Although her order sounded cruel, it was reasonable. It was because Nakamura did not behave decently in front of Princess Nami. Even if in modern times, with the decline of the royal family, in the view of the people, the royal family was still high above them. Their actual power may be a lot less, but their majesty was still inviolable. Such a despicable and evil person had tried to insult the royal princess. It was reasonable for him to be severely punished.
So when Xiao Bing stood out to block these warriors, everyone was surprised, and Princess Nami became angrier.
Princess Nami did not expect Xiao Bing to stand up to add to the chaos. For a moment, she could not help being furious. Was this Aoki Ichiro deliberately humiliating her?
The general manager saw that Princess Nami was about to erupt, and hurried forward and said loudly, “All of you retreat first.”
The warriors who surrounded Xiao Bing, retreated one by one, and kept a safe distance. However, they did not leave instantly and they all looked at Princess Nami. Although the general manager had the authority in the Princess House, the true master in the Princess House was still Princess Nami.
The general manager smiled secretly and bitterly in his heart. “Aoki Ichiro, Aoki Ichiro, you really do not know how petulant Princess Nami is! It made her feel embarrassed to be stopped in front of so many people. If she was really angry, even I could not save you. Why are young people so impulsive nowadays, and do not know how to be more cunning.”
The general manager gave Xiao Bing a look, then cleared his throat and spoke respectfully to Princess Nami, “My Royal Highness, it is such a great day today. We have selected two outstanding warriors, which should be worth celebrating. It is not so good to have bloodshed, not to mention that Nakamura has died. Even if he was tortured, he would not feel it. And whether what he said before he died, is true or not, is still unknown, maybe they are just words spoken in anger. My Royal Highness is so generous. Maybe we can repay it with kindness. We can give him an honorable burial, which will let the people see how magnanimous the heart of the Princess is. What do you think of this?”
Princess Nami had been put in a slightly awkward situation. Her real intention was to accept Xiao Bing, and then go back to the house and teach him a good lesson as well. But if she really made people fight with Xiao Bing here, she would have lost “face” totally. If the warrior who had just been appointed, had conflicts with her, this would make the other high-ranking people laugh at her.
Although Princess Nami had been spoiled since her childhood and was arrogant, she was still smart. When it came to the issue of dignity, she was usually more concerned about it. Thinking that many high-ranking people were watching here, if the incident should escalate into something really big, she would be the one feeling ashamed. Princess Nami had to swallow this first. She glared at Xiao Bing, and then said unwillingly, “Then I will give General Manager Takahashi face. Well, give this person an honorable burial. Ichiro Aoki, from now on, you and Fukuda Ogawa are my personal warriors.”
Xiao Bing bowed to Nami and said with a smile, “My Royal Highness is generous and open-minded. I admire this. From now on, I, Aoki Ichiro will follow my Royal Highness to keep you safe. And I will continuously learn about the good qualities of your humility, courtesy, and self-satisfaction.”
Princess Nami hated him so much for saying these words. Aki Ichiro, he dared to tease Princess Nami. Xiao Bing’s words were all exaggerated, but even Princess Nami felt guilty when she heard it. She had wanted to cut Nakamura’s body into pieces earlier. Now Xiao Bing said that she was treating him with kindness. Wasn’t he teasing her?
Many people secretly felt surprised at Xiao Bing’s bravery. He had offended Princess Nami so much. Could he still be Princess Nami’s warrior?
Xiao Bing did not care too much about it. It was as if he did not know that he had offended the princess. The general manager had also never come across a man like Xiao Bing. If someone else wanted to go to work, they would find a way to please the boss. This Xiao Bing offended the boss and made her furious with him. Well, there would be a lot of wonderful things to watch later, but he still had to persuade the princess, in private. After all, Xiao Bing’s strength was indeed good, which was at the master level. No matter where he went, it was reasonable for him to be treated preferentially. Looking at the entire princess house, few people could fight with Xiao Bing. If Princess Nami wanted to take revenge and drive Xiao Bing away, it would not be worth it at all.
Now there were many people in the field, who were thinking about Xiao Bing. They hoped that Xiao Bing would not go to the Princess House, and then they could get closer to him. These people would be courteous to the wise and scholarly, and they would offer him a higher salary.
The general manager began to perform his duties. Standing on the stage, he said eloquently, “Today, I am very grateful to everyone for coming and witnessing Mr. Aoki Ichiro and Mr. Fukuda Ogawa’s entry to our princess house. Both of them have great talents. Although they are warriors, our Princess House will definitely give them the best treatment. As for the rest of the contestants, the top five players who have not been selected, will all be rewarded with 3 million yuan. Thank you for your participation.”
The three million he said was not Cathay Currency. If it was converted into Cathay Currency, it would be about 300,000 yuan.
The general manager continued, “As for Mr. Aoki Ichiro and Mr. Fukuda Ogawa, starting from today, they will first sign a one-year contract with a monthly salary of 8 million yuan. In addition, the Princess House will be providing the accommodation. The Princess Royal Highness’s safety will be entrusted to both of you.”
Eight million yuan was equivalent to 500,000 Cathay Currency, which was a lot for the ordinary people. But for the two masters of Transforming Strength, it was actually not much, but still so many people broke their heads in the attempt to enter the princess house. On the one hand, they wanted to rely on the power of the Princess House. Even if they left the Princess House later, it would be a stepping stone for them in society. On the other hand, they wanted to work there, because of the fame of the first beauty. It was normal for men to love to work for beauties.
Fukuda Ogawa immediately said, “General Manager Takahashi, Princess Nami, rest assured, I Fukuda Ogawa will definitely protect the safety of the Royal Highness Princess, and ensure that no one will hurt the Royal Highness. I will die for the Royal Highness.”
Xiao Bing said boringly, “Me too.”
Xiao Bing looked languid, but Fukuda Ogawa was quite excited. He seemed really proud to be able to enter the Princess House, or maybe feel proud to be able to do things around the first beauty.
Xiao Bing seemed nonchalant at first, but suddenly he thought of something again. He looked at the general manager and asked, “General Manager, are you going to give me a gold medal which is the same as Futian’s?”
General Manager Takahashi laughed, “Of course.”
Having said that, he took a gold medal from his arms and handed it to Xiao Bing cautiously, “This gold medal must be kept in good condition, as it represents your identity as a person in the Princess House, and allows you to enter and leave the Princess House freely. If picked up by a random person, it would cause great problems. ”
Xiao Bing said, “I will keep it safe.”
Looking at Xiao Bing’s solemn appearance, the general manager was relieved, and Princess Nami felt a little better. At least, although he seemed to be a wretch, at least he was considered very important to the Princess House.
Xiao Bing looked at the gold medal in his hand, and hesitantly asked, “In case one day I am no longer in the Princess House, will it be worth more than 10 million yuan if I sell this gold medal?”
10 million yuan was equivalent to more than 1 million Cathay Currency.
Everyone felt disbelief.
Princess Nami suddenly stood up and could not stay on anymore. She was angry beyond belief. Damn Ichiro Aoki, just wait!
The general manager smiled bitterly, “Mr. Aoki Ichiro, this gold medal is not a gift for you. It is only temporarily for your use. If one day you really don’t plan to stay in the princess house, you must return it to our princess house. ”
“Oh, stingy.”
Princess Nami’s pace accelerated a little.
The general manager hurriedly said, “My Royal Highness, wait a minute. After signing the contract, let them accompany you back.”
“No need.” Princess Nami was exasperated, “You can arrange the rest, and let them come to me tomorrow.”
The General Manager smiled bitterly, and it seemed that his Royal Highness was really angry. He did not dare to say anything, so he said, “I see, my Royal Highness.”
The audience’s eyes followed the first beauty as she walked away, and they felt as if their souls had also flown away. After a while, they came back to life. Since the ending had been made known and the princess had also left, there was no need to stay any more. They did not forget the main purpose in coming here, and they hurried to find the competitors they liked, to try and draw them in. Although they could not attract Xiao Bing, there were still some people who had not reached the end, but were very strong. Those people were also worth attracting. This was why they had been watching the competition for the past days.
They began to disperse. Xiao Bing touched his nose and asked, “General Manager, why is this princess so stingy? Does she get angry just by hearing a few words?”
Mr. Takahashi smiled bitterly, “Maybe… it may be because of Mr. Aoki’s personality, but our princess’s temper is really not very good. After all, she entered the royal family at a later stage. Though she is not a royal bloodline, she is favored by others… no one could ever refuse her anything since childhood, even the elders of the Royal Presbyterian regiment, her Grandpa, have no way to refuse her, and I hope that both of you can take better care of her in the future… ”
Fukuda Ogawa hurriedly said, “It doesn’t matter. No matter what the princess does, it should be all right.”
Xiao Bing said nothing at all.
It seemed that the general manager Takahashi was talking to both of them. But in fact, he was speaking specifically to Xiao Bing. Looking at Xiao Bing’s careless look, he also had no choice, but to smile and continued with his arrangements.
