"Oh oh oh..."

The system's vitality was very tenacious, and it was glad that it had only burrowed into the quilt. Then it slowly crawled out.

But my head still hurts...

The system flew to Sheen, folded its arms and muttered:

"I'm not kidding, host. You really are... you're just weird, okay?"

"You are very good at dressing up, and you are also very proficient in women's cosmetics and jewelry. Even the style of the earrings and the texture of the clothes are very beautiful, and you can also hand-weave lace by yourself - what else can you be if not the one who is on the receiving end?"

“It’s just a matter of personal preference.”

Sheen rolled up his sleeves and tried his best to resist the urge to punch the system again.

"I've been a straight man for so many years in real life, how could I like a man? I advise you not to make such a joke, okay?"

The system murmured quietly, expressing that it felt very aggrieved:

"Uh...but the host's behavior is really like that of a boy in love."

"But I will never like men anyway!" Sheen was still angry about the system's offensive joke.

"Ugh..."

The system slapped its head that was hit and hurt, and muttered to itself, "If Scott and Stella are the same person, everything makes sense..."

...

Sheen looked stunned.

But it is impossible for him to adopt a pair of brothers and sisters at the same time!

Calm down you beast!

"Hmm...!"

Sheen forced himself to calm down.

"The system is right. My previous behavior was too intimate. No wonder Scott occasionally complained that I was a 'crazy man with a strong desire for control'...

I should distance myself from Scott to a certain extent.

I traveled through the book to complete my mission and return to reality, not to stay in this world to fall in love. "

Thinking of this, Sheen turned his attention to Ivan's body again: The most important thing now is to complete the contract with the original Ivan.

I brought Scott here purely to get Ivan's special weapon. I had no other intentions.

His left fingers continued to tap the armrest:

I swear, after I help Impes with the battlefield affairs, I will have nothing to do with him!

real...

The box containing the contact stone on the coffee table lit up, and judging by the color of the light, it was Eve's contact stone.

Xien picked up the contact stone and complained while looking at it: "Who would contact me at this time? I will deal with him tomorrow morning...

"what?"

The system is no longer functioning after Sheen's magical expression change in a second. What's going on?

It flew above the communication stone screen and saw the following line of words.

"Scott: Do you have plans for tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock? I need your help with something."

Sheen was stunned for a moment.

Their working days are different from others. They only work four days a week, with Friday, Saturday and Sunday off. So Friday is Eve's extra day off (Scott also has a day off), she stays at home and doesn't see anyone on that day.

(In fact, it is to temporarily disconnect from the clone and let yourself rest)

But Scott proposed a private meeting...

He picked up the pen and wrote on the touch screen.

Eve: Tomorrow? I’m free. If it’s not something to do in the tower, we’ll have to find another meeting place.

Xien didn't know why he just said that he was free. Maybe he couldn't resist his curiosity?

Scott: Of course it's not in the magic tower. We can get there by teleporting.

Then, Stella used the contact stone to send out a magic location.

Snow Mountain Dim Sum House? This is a holy place for dating or confidential conversations - what is this guy doing?

Sheen thought about it and decided that since the clone was very powerful, if anyone was really plotting against him, the worst that could happen was that Scott would also be beaten into a first-degree disability.

Eve: Okay, see you there.

-

The next day.

The Snow Mountain Dessert House, located at an altitude of 3,000 meters in the mountains separating the north and south, is a dessert business owned by the Impes family. The predecessor of this dessert house was a jujube honey production factory a few years ago, mainly targeting the southern market.

Since Sheen launched beet sugar, Snow Mountain Dessert House has transformed its business into export-oriented, and now focuses on desserts and tourism. It is now a famous check-in destination.

Because of its remote location, it is also used for business talks or secret transactions. However, everyone has a limit. They don't want to ruin the reputation of this rare safe haven because of their own selfish desires.

It has three floors in total. The first floor is the dating and reception area, the second floor is the sightseeing area, and the third floor is the secret negotiation area.

Today's meeting was of course held in the confidential area on the third floor. As early as yesterday, Scott had booked a box, and even Impress's bodyguards checked it in advance. Today's staff all signed confidentiality agreements to ensure that the content of this meeting would not be known to anyone.

At ten o'clock, Eve, wearing an ivory windbreaker and with her long silver hair done up to look neat, sat opposite Scott. She was really on time.

Scott, who was sitting in the host seat, was wearing a casual white and gray men's windbreaker. Although he had no decorations on his body, as he sat there, his noble temperament was revealed from the inside out.

Scott was not wearing anything on his hands today. It was hard for Eve not to notice that Scott's long, bony hands were covered with gray-black scars.

No wonder he had been wearing gloves for several years. Eve thought,

He probably took off his gloves after confirming that he was at the highest level of the knights and didn't need to pay attention to the ridicule of others.

(In fact, the system just fixed the bug of blood magic)

Scott was stunned when he saw Eve was also wearing a white trench coat. Come on, this really feels like a date.

But it’s important to get down to business. Scott looked up at the taskbar, then smiled and handed Eve the menu:

"Miss Eve, would you like something to drink? It's my treat today."

Eve glared at Scott. She couldn't tell what the man opposite her was thinking from his handsome face that was always smiling.

But she knew that Scott's invitation to her was not as simple as a few words. When she was still Sheen, she knew that Scott didn't like to waste his or other people's time - if it could be solved with just a few words, the contact stone would have done it!

"You're welcome then." Eve smiled.

The beautiful hands took the menu, and while looking at it, the ruby-like eyes secretly looked at the guy sitting opposite.

Whether he deliberately slowed down the process or not, Scott's face did not show any anxiety. He just sat quietly and kept smiling.

But for some reason, this smile seemed wrong to Eve.

How should I put it? Those emerald green eyes are very much like the eyes of a stone gambler, who wants to see the priceless gems from the red ore that has not yet been cut.

(With a strong flashlight, it's perfect)

Eve appeared calm on the surface, but was actually speechless:

"It would be nice if Stella was sitting opposite me. If she invited me, she would be very enthusiastic in recommending the best food here instead of just observing me!"

They have the same father, so why does Scott seem so unapproachable?

He is truly worthy of being called "Black Impess", his green eyes are full of vigilance and suspicion.

After complaining about Scott in her heart, Eve thought of Stella again:

She remembered that the Duke of Impes had made Stella's identity public a few years ago, but he had never announced Stella's position in Impes.

That is why ah?

Stella is such a beautiful and innocent girl who can inspire people's desire to protect her. She is a white Impess...so why does she need to practice swordsmanship?

Eve actually wanted to ask the person in front of her, but when she raised her head and looked into the emerald green eyes, she had the urge to hate Scott.

But... Scott and Stella's eyes seem to be very clear...
