CHAPTER 449: CHAPTER 449 YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT

Xia Huangyu looked at the silver metal ring on Lin Fu’s neck, his eyes showing sympathy, "You’ve finally woken up."

Lin Fu glanced sideways at the person who was guarding her and said indifferently, "I’m already wearing a suppression ring. What else are you worried about?"

Everyone was slightly embarrassed.

Xia Huangyu quickly said, "Don’t worry, leave her to me, I’ll take her to her room."

"Yes!"

After the others had left, Xia Huangyu attentively helped Lin Fu to sit down in the small garden, busied himself with pouring tea for her, and even directed the housekeeper robot to prepare some snacks.

Lin Fu didn’t speak, just watched him coldly.

"Don’t look at me like that," Xia Huangyu said, feeling embarrassed as he touched his nose. He was not familiar with Lin Fu before, but their shared experiences on Helheim Star and being saved by Horace, who kept insisting on protecting Lin Fu, had made him feel very familiar with her.

"You don’t seem at all like a prisoner! That silver-haired one doesn’t hesitate at all to kill people, yet he values you highly."

"Pfft..."

While drinking tea, Xia Huangyu sprayed out the tea he had just sipped at her blunt words, staring at her with his beautiful phoenix eyes, he pointed at Lin Fu, "You... you..."

"What’s wrong? Isn’t it silver hair?"

"Oh! I’m becoming more and more impressed by you," he said. The skill in giving nicknames was truly unique; probably no one else in the entire Galaxy Empire dared to do that.

"He is Prince Clive, a member of the Mecklenburg Royal Family, Joseph V’s very uncle," Xia Huangyu instinctively lowered his voice. "You might not have heard of him, but he’s very powerful, like Duke Fuxing before he disappeared."

Lin Fu nodded thoughtfully, now she understood.

"So, it was he and Joseph V who collaborated?"

"Yes, you could say that, but I think he tricked Joseph V," Xia Huangyu explained. Having been captured by Prince Clive while conscious and after fleeing with them for half a year, his cooperative attitude allowed him to find out a lot.

"Joseph’s target was all of us students born from noble families, to control and negotiate with our families. But Prince Clive did not obediently listen; he went on a killing spree, and surely this will be blamed on the Mecklenburg Royal Family."

Lin Fu snorted coldly, "After all, it’s just mutual use, mutual calculation, such an outcome is not surprising at all."

"You’re right."

"The relationship between this uncle and nephew isn’t great. The Mecklenburg Royal Family is really rotten to the core; the family members are killing each other, and the common people are the ones who suffer the most." A flicker of annoyance crossed Lin Fu’s forehead as she thought of the additional memories that flooded her mind ever since she regained consciousness, making her look even more troubled.

Xia Huangyu had been observing her expressions and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"

"I’m not okay at all."

"Er... Just stay strong, what has happened has happened, as unfortunate as it is, we can’t be defeated by it, nor can we dwell on the past."

Lin Fu looked at him in surprise, "Yes! You’re absolutely right."

Now she was beginning to understand the mindset of people in the interstellar era, even though their lifespans were longer than those in the Ancient Earth Era, they viewed life and death with much greater detachment.

"How were you captured?"

Talking about this, Xia Huangyu’s face clouded over, "It was all Horace’s fault. I was really ruined by him. He cried out to save you, but with his inadequate equipment, he couldn’t participate in the fight between you and Prince Clive. He had to save people while keeping watch, and because he was too close, Prince Clive noticed me when he captured you..."
