The Seventh Base

Chapter 698: Chapter 87 Mixed Doubles_2

“Bang, bang, bang…” Zero furiously slashed at Xu Mo as he clutched his head and shouted angrily, “Elizabeth, come here and explain yourself.”

Elizabeth did come over, but she came over wielding a sword.

She charged forward and joined Zero in slashing down.

The two fought together in a flurry!

Ize and Carter hid in the corner watching; they exchanged glances, too scared to speak.

Women are too scary.

After a long fight, the two seemed tired and looked at Xu Mo squatting on the ground with his head in his hands while Zero and Elizabeth were both panting.

That felt good.

“Shall we continue?” Elizabeth asked; she felt she and Zero were now on the same side, thinking that scumbags deserved to be slashed.

Zero looked up at Elizabeth when he heard her, thinking something wasn’t right.

“Who told you to hit him?” Zero asked Elizabeth.

“……” Elizabeth looked at Zero, wondering why she couldn’t hit him.

“Only I can.” Zero raised his sword and slashed directly at Elizabeth.

Elizabeth, stunned, watched Zero’s sword coming at her and quickly raised her sword to block.

“Bang…” Elizabeth’s body was sent flying, and she staggered several steps back before stabilizing, angrily looking up at Zero.

Jerks, both of them are jerks!

“You two, come here,” Elizabeth turned her head and shouted at Ize and Carter.

“Uh…” Ize and Carter meekly walked forward, then watched as Zero approached the three of them with his sword.

This!!!

Was Zero going to hit Elizabeth too?

This is too…

“Ahhh!!” Elizabeth roared inwardly, so frustrated that her chest heaved and her hands shook uncontrollably.

“Zero, Princess Elizabeth indeed did not know before; she found out only today,” Carter quickly spoke to defuse the tense situation.

“Hmm?” Zero looked towards Ize, who nodded, “Indeed, during the last assassination incident, someone informed Elizabeth, and she learned the truth only today.”

“Shut up,” Elizabeth commanded angrily; the two men immediately clamped their mouths shut.

Zero’s eyes wandered, examining the angry Elizabeth and then looking at Xu Mo.

Had he made a mistake?

Xu Mo looked at Zero, his eyes filled with grievance.

“Why would she say that?” Zero questioned Xu Mo, pointing his sword at him.

“Revenge,” Xu Mo replied weakly.

“It’s still because you provoked her,” Zero said.

“Yeah, you’re right,” Xu Mo could only agree.

What a mess.

“Let’s go back,” Zero finally spoke, and Xu Mo nodded; the two of them left together.

“I won’t hit you randomly anymore,” Zero said.

“How many times have you said that?” Xu Mo challenged.

“I don’t remember,” Zero replied.

“Then, will you compensate me?” Xu Mo asked.

“How shall I compensate you?” Zero looked at him.

“People in love are supposed to sleep hugging each other,” Xu Mo declared.

“Mother was right after all,” Zero said.

“What did your mother say?” Xu Mo asked.

“Mother said you would definitely try to trick me into doing this.”

Xu Mo: “……”

Elizabeth watched their figures disappear into the distance, still furious. Even though she had beaten Xu Mo, Zero… how dare she attack her, outrageous!

“They really have a good relationship,” Carter said.

“It’s really good; they made up so quickly after fighting,” Ize nodded in agreement.

But this reassured them.

Elizabeth was safe.

“You can leave now,” Elizabeth said.

Carter: “……”

Ize: “……”

Elizabeth turned and walked toward the castle while the two men exchanged glances, realizing Elizabeth still needed time to cool off.

But thankfully, it seemed like they had managed to get past this hurdle; perhaps this matter was hopefully behind them now?

The two men weren’t aware that their nerve-wracking days had only just begun!

…

A few days later, life seemed to return to normal.

The library was quiet; Xu Mo sat there quietly reading a book while Zero went to class.

Nan Xiangyi was there today too, sitting at another spot.

Then, a figure approached, drawing several people’s eyes.

Elizabeth walked straight up to Xu Mo, placed a book on the desk, then sat down.

Xu Mo looked up at Elizabeth, who was now reading with her head down.

“Ah…” Xu Mo could only pretend to read his book.

The atmosphere was slightly eerie.

Nan Xiangyi noticed Elizabeth and Xu Mo and seemed to understand something.

Could it be that Elizabeth had truly fallen for Xu Mo?

Now, Nan Xiangyi was almost certain of his guess; Xu Mo was the Guardian Knight.

Everyone in the library had noticed the Princess sitting across from Xu Mo?

This worthless man!

Moments later.

Xu Mo looked up at the quiet Elizabeth, pushed his book forward, leaned in, and whispered, “About the previous incident, I was wrong, Elizabeth…”

“How many shares do you own?” Elizabeth interrupted him, asking quietly.

“Twenty-six percent,” Xu Mo responded.

“…” Elizabeth looked up at him, “So, Ross is your Puppet?”

“No, Ross is my good ‘brother’; intelligent Tard people know how to manage a company well,” Xu Mo said.

“You’re not Anos’s servant?” Elizabeth continued, recalling her past sympathy for Xu Mo—diligent, talented, yet of low status.

Now…

Ize and Carter told her that Xu Mo was a member of the Royal Family who had escaped a tragedy and had been displaced, seeking revenge.
