As soon as the system finished speaking, Jiang Guo saw Royce.

He is tall, riding a horse and hiding in the dark of the woods, with more than a dozen auras behind him.

Those movements just now should be made by him.

He wanted to take advantage of the chaos and go into the city to find her, but he didn't expect that she had already brought Charlie out.

Royce didn't recognize Jiang Guolai, but he recognized Thea and Charlie.

Then he saw the man in the uniform of the rebels kicking the city guard. He guessed that it might be Cindy.

The rebels have already released more than a dozen people. They held a celebration banquet in the city tonight, and there are not many soldiers guarding the city.

"Those who defend the city will retreat directly after the caravan leaves."

The people behind him rushed out of the woods and moved towards the guards who had just left the city.

Without hesitation, he rode straight in the direction of Jiang Guo.

The people in the caravan were terrified, and the carriages ran around, but they all rushed towards the direction of the road.

It was the same with Thea's carriage.

Royce quickly followed and called Jiang Guo's name outside the carriage.

"Cindy, is that you?"

"uncle!"

Jiang Guo directly opened the window of the carriage, and saw Royce on horseback through the moonlight.

The situation in the carriage is clearly visible.

Thea was driving, and the only man...was Charlie.

Cindy actually likes Charlie? !

Royce stared at Charlie with dark eyes. At this critical moment, Charlie was already sensitive, and Royce's gaze made his back shiver.

"Your Excellency... Long time no see."

He really didn't dare to make friends with Royce. He could see how much Royce loved Cindy.

Now that Royce found out that Cindy risked his life twice to save him, he must have wanted to kill him.

With the help of Royce, their carriage finally left the sphere of influence of the rebels and returned to Carlos City.

Jiang Guo originally wanted to take Charlie and Charlie to the pub, but Royce insisted on taking her home.

What Royce thought was also reasonable.

The world is in chaos now, and the rebels have already occupied the city next door. It is impossible not to have undercover agents in Carlos City.

Once the news got out, it was not safe for them to stay outside.

Jiang Guo took Charlie and Thea back home.

When Mrs. Denise and Mr. Ganelis saw her return safely, their hearts finally fell to the ground.

As for Charlie, they were a little surprised.

Charlie's name, they had heard it too.

The most beloved youngest son of the Worowitz family, but he doesn't do his job, likes fooling around, and has caused a lot of debts to him, so he is really not a good match.

Although marrying him would indeed bring many benefits to the family, Mrs. Denise hoped that her daughter would be happy forever after suffering so much.

Charlie was shot in the arm in the carriage, and Jiang Guo called him a doctor when he got home.

The doctor was trying his best to save him, and Jiang Guo had to act in front of Royce, so he deliberately stayed by the side with worry.

It was getting late, and after Jiang Guo persuaded the Ganelis couple to go back to rest, she also planned to go back to rest after Charlie finished bandaging.

But Royce sat beside him motionless, with a cold expression on his face, and he didn't say a word, and he couldn't tell what mood he was in.

Charlie is delicate and frail, the bullets have been pulled out, and he cried and howled for nearly two hours.

"Sir, please don't move around. Your gauze has been stained red with blood and needs to be re-bandaged. If you keep doing this, you may lose too much blood."

The doctor was very helpless and had to come over with the medicine box to help him bandage again.

Charlie's eyes were red, and there were faint tears in his eyes, which he gritted his teeth to hold back.

Although he really wanted to show some dignity, the pain in his arm really made him unbearable.

The moment the doctor touched the wound, he couldn't hold back and moved his hand directly.

The poor doctor was hit by him, and his face turned blue.

Jiang Guo couldn't stand it anymore, so she hurried over to apologize, and took the gauze from the doctor's hand.

"I'm really sorry, old man, go back and rest, and leave the dressing to me."

She's getting old, it's pitiful that she tosses around for hours in the middle of the night and gets beaten up just to earn some money.

Jiang Guo secretly decided in his heart that he must count two extra consultation fees for him.

"Charlie, don't move around, or the wound won't close, and you will die if you lose too much blood."

"...Sorry, I...I will try my best."

Seeing that Jiang Guo's hand was about to touch Charlie's arm, Royce next to him couldn't sit still.

He stood up neatly and directly took the gauze from Jiang Guo's hand.

"I come."

Jiang Guo was still in a daze, so she subconsciously stood aside.

There is a feeling of... "the overbearing commander ordered me"...

She thought about the wonderful scene, and quickly came back to her senses.

He was afraid that Royce would not be able to do it alone, and he was also afraid that Charlie, a dog boy, would hit Royce in the face.

Royce's face is a work of art, if Charlie really punched him green, Jiang Guo might go crazy.

"Then I'll hold his arm for you."

Speaking of which, Jiang Guo was going to touch Charlie's arm, but Royce directly refused.

"Need not!"

His tone was very serious, and he looked at Charlie with extremely deep eyes, as if looking at a soldier who had made a mistake.

Charlie's face turned pale with fright from Royce's cold eyes.

Royce used to be a general, and Charlie had heard of many of his military exploits, all of which were heroic, yet terrifying.

His cold voice hit his head and face, scaring Charlie too much to move.

"I believe Charlie, a 20-year-old man must be able to hold back this pain, right?"

"..."

Only then did Charlie find out what the problem was, and he quickly retracted his arm. The fear in his heart took over, and he seemed to feel that his arm didn't hurt much.

"That's right... Your Excellency the Duke is right, Miss Cindy doesn't care about me, it's already so late, you should go back and rest."

Jiang Guo almost laughed at Charlie's reaction.

But she held back and stood by as Royce bandaged him.

Compared with doctors, Royce's bandages are simple and rough, which has nothing to do with tenderness at all.

Charlie didn't dare to scream at all, he bit his lip abruptly until the skin was broken, and finally with a pale face, he thanked Royce stiffly for bandaging him.

Royce looked at Jiang Guo and Thea who were still standing beside him, pursed his lips, and finally said nothing.

"It's getting late, you all go back and rest."

Jiang Guo was too sleepy at first and planned to go back.

Thea was silent for a moment, looked at Charlie who was pale in the chair, and spoke.

"My lord, you and Miss Cindy can go back to rest. I'm here to look after Marquis Charlie. I'll ask a doctor to help if something happens. Don't worry."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Cindy, come with me."

Royce didn't pause this time, just answered the words, turned around and left.

Jiang Guo was very sleepy, so she quickly followed her out.

After leaving the room, Royce called Jiang Guo to stop.

"Cindy, is Charlie the one you like?"

Jiang Guo didn't expect him to ask so bluntly, it didn't fit his uncle's character.

She didn't think about how to answer for a while, and suddenly heard thunder outside the castle.

A series of rumbling thunders was really scary, followed by pouring rain.

Jiang Guo froze for a moment, and immediately looked at Royce's legs.

She remembered that it started to drizzle this evening, and Royce didn't know how long he had been riding outside the city...

Regardless of the question Royce just asked, Jiang Guo walked up to him and wanted to help him.

"Uncle, how is your leg? Does it hurt?"

"..."
