In the cafeteria at noon, many eyes secretly looked in one direction. Whispering voices came from all directions, and they were talking quietly.

"Is that him? The guy who wants to duel with Marquis Jeno, I heard it's because of Princess Alexia."

"It's a love triangle that's fun to watch. I don't know whether to call him blindly arrogant or confident in his own strength."

"I heard he's Claire's younger brother, so he shouldn't be too weak, right?"

"No wonder, it's not like a family doesn't enter a house. I'm ashamed of myself for my courage in one round."

"Haha, he just entered school. Maybe no one in his hometown can defeat him, but the royal capital is not a poor and remote place. Even Claire took two years to complete that feat."

"Lord Rhodes will definitely win!"

This is the cry of a nymphomaniac. As soon as he finished speaking, many noble ladies greeted him.

Rhodes himself did not expect that in less than a day, he would have a fan base.

The consensus of most people at the scene was that it was impossible for Rhodes to win, but at least the defeat would not be too ugly, after all, there was Claire there.

"Do you really have no other requests?" Alexia looked at Rhodes and couldn't help but ask again, as if she couldn't get rid of the guilt in her heart without helping Rhodes.

"I mean, princess, is it necessary to be so active?"

Rhodes raised his head and said, "I can get everything I want. What I can't get, you can't even help me get it."

Alexia showed her disbelief, and when she saw that Rhodes was slightly impatient, she had no choice but to give up and secretly wrote down the affection.

As time passed by, Alexia looked at Rhodes intently, with a trace of confusion in her eyes.

Alexia had seen too many people whose faces were flushed and who couldn't even lift their heads when asked by her.

It would be such an exciting scene to have dinner with Princess Alexia, but she met the indifferent Rhodes. Alexia doubted her charm in front of him more than once.

Alexia held her pretty face with one hand, focused her crimson eyes on Rhodes, and said suddenly.

"Are you interested in being my boyfriend?"

"Um?"

The maid had just put all the dishes on the table, and when Rhodes was about to start, she heard Alexia's shocking words, and suddenly paused with the chopsticks in her hand, with an expression like "You're kidding me."

Seeing that Rhodes finally stopped keeping his calm expression, Alexia felt extremely happy!

She opened her mouth to explain why she said that.

"Of course it's not true, it's just a pretense! I just thought of a very good idea. Of course, if you really have any intention, I will reluctantly consider it."

The arrogant princess emphasized again, as if she was still worried about Rhodes' attitude of treating her as a transparent person, and then she said with a smile that looked like a despicable person no matter what.

"Whether you win or lose, it will be very beneficial to you. You must also know that Marquis Geno and I are in a political marriage. If during this period, I take the initiative to accept your confession, it will be equivalent to the marriage between Geno and me. Among the marquises, I chose to accept you in advance. The outcome of the duel becomes irrelevant."

"Wait a minute, why am I confessing to you?" Rhode interrupted Alexia.

"What are you talking about."

Alexia said in an innocent tone: "How can there be any reason for a princess to take the initiative to confess to others? Just listen to me first."

"If things go well, think about it, you lose, but the person you are engaged to is still unswervingly choosing the loser. There is no doubt that it is an unacceptable blow to a man, especially among the upper-class nobles. , no matter where you are, you will be ridiculed and lose face."

"Indeed." Rhodes suddenly realized and gave a thumbs up.

"There is nothing to say if we win, but it seems unlikely at the moment and we ignore it."

"Being favored by Alexia essentially proves that you are better than Marquis Jeno. No matter how you look at it, you will be the biggest winner in this duel."

The corners of Alexia's mouth curved. She didn't even expect that she could come up with such a wonderful idea. Not only did she disgust Marquis Geno, whom she had always hated, but her father would also probably cancel the engagement by then!

After all, no one wants their daughter to marry someone with bad habits.

To be honest, even Rhodes had to admire Alexia's imagination.

"Then the matter is settled."

"I reject."

Rhodes turned his thumbs down without hesitation.

To be honest, Rhodes did not deny Alexia's idea, but her assumptions were all based on the premise that "Rhodes will definitely lose."

Will Rhodes lose? It's obviously impossible.

Then if you win, everything will be fine.

"Why? It's obviously a very good idea."

Alexia thought of something and sighed helplessly.

"I know, it's really embarrassing for you to confess to me. Everyone has their own dignity. Forget it, after all, it happened because of me. The effect of my confession to you is the same. It's better to say it's more perfect. I won't do it next time. "

Alexia stood up and pushed the chair away, which was particularly jarring in the quiet cafeteria.

Rhodes thought of something and his expression changed drastically: "Wait..."

As soon as the first word came out of her mouth, Alexia looked shy and stretched out her hand to Rhodes.

In front of everyone, Alexia said in a normal and calm voice, but could not hide her trembling voice.

"I like you, classmate Rhodes, can you date me?"
