The next day, Wayne met Prince Richard at the Lily Club.

He has always been busy with work. In addition to receiving additional individual lessons, he often needs to attend various events on behalf of the royal family.

Therefore, this friend does not always have the opportunity to live a leisurely life like others.

By the way, the academy's rule of "no going out during classes" does not apply to Prince Richard.

As a crown prince, as long as you use the excuse that you have other important matters, you can leave almost anytime you want.

Special treatment like this accumulates over time and becomes an enviable privilege.

"Richard, Tasia has joined Chris and I's group for this extracurricular investigation." He seemed to mention the topic casually.

Richard, who was sitting next to him, looked stunned and silently took a sip of coffee.

"Yeah."

He whispered, "That's fine too."

I couldn't hear any emotional fluctuations.

"Even if Richard is here, can't he stop others from ostracizing her?" Wayne asked.

He also thought that even out of his integrity and sympathy, Richard would try to provide some help to Tasia.

But, I've never heard him talk about it.

Richard showed a troubled expression.

"I asked her before if she wanted to join my group."

The spoon stirring the coffee in Wayne's hand stopped.

"Well, what then?"

"Then, she rejected her." Richard sighed. "As a result, the news spread, and the situation she faced seemed to be even worse."

"..."

Is that so?

Wayne didn't know what to say.

"Richard, you should be somewhat self-aware of your popularity among girls."

Although it sounds very enviable, when I think about the unbeautiful consequences, I don't think it's that good.

Hearing his judgment, Richard smiled bitterly and said: "I would rather exchange everyone else's welcome for the person I like to like me."

--hiss.

Wayne felt goosebumps all over his body.

It's not a good time to stay here for a long time, let's finish the business quickly.

"Actually, Chrissy and I have an idea that might be able to alleviate Tasia's current situation."

Wayne put down the coffee cup, looked at Richard, and said seriously: "But I need your help in this matter."

Prince Richard has the highest priority in the academy, and his support is crucial.

"What is it?"

Seeing his expression so formal, Richard also became serious.

"Change Tasia to our class, and the [group] led by Chris will accept Tasia."

With a group of loyal little sisters, Chris is enough to make her own voice heard.

Although they may face some noble ladies who hate Tasia, this pressure is nothing to the Winche family.

On the other hand.

Precisely because Chrissy's image has always been that of "doing whatever she wants" and doing things based on her preferences, she is able to make others accept her unconventional behavior very well.

This is undoubtedly an advantage that those aristocratic ladies who follow the rules do not have.

Richard was silent.

After a while, he spoke again.

"There... there is an obstacle that cannot be solved yet." He said with some difficulty.

——Richard clearly understood that it was His Majesty’s arrangement that he and Tasia were in the same class.

My father is looking forward to selecting a qualified future queen in the academy.

Not a princess from another country, nor a big noble in the country.

She is a commoner girl with extremely high magical talents and a close relationship with the church.

If Wayne and Chris could reverse this fact, he didn't think it was possible no matter how hard he thought about it.

After hearing this, Wayne looked around covertly and found no one paying attention to the conversation between him and Richard.

He no longer tried to be pretentious, but said bluntly: "I know that His Majesty the King has the intention."

Richard looked surprised, as if he didn't expect that even he knew the inside story.

"But Richard is reluctant, isn't he?" Wayne asked softly.

If he wasn't sure that he could facilitate this matter, he wouldn't have rashly proposed it.

Richard smiled sadly.

"Yes, I don't want to."

"——Then resist."

Wayne's face was expressionless and he said it in a matter-of-fact tone.

…

Academy President's Office.

This place is the highest point in Qingxi Academy.

Even the scenery in the elementary school and elementary school can be seen.

In this gorgeous and huge campus, many youth stories happen every minute and every second.

In this way, he watched the glorious years of others day after day, feeling that he was growing older year after year in the youth of others.

"It's really enviable." A faint sigh sounded in the office.

"Young people are full of energy."

Dong dong dong——

There was a knock on the closed door suddenly.

Without waiting for a reply, a mature woman in her thirties walked in wearing very formal professional work clothes and high heels.

The slender heels stepped on the flat ground, and the sound was brisk and powerful.

...just like the person this assistant is.

The chairman's chair was still facing the floor-to-ceiling windows, and he didn't look back.

"Beatrice, you should learn to knock on the door." The man said slowly.

"Oh, I'm sorry. But I think... Mr. Chairman can't be doing anything serious anyway. This offense should be tolerated, right?" the assistant lady said slightly playfully.

Hey, please apologize to me who works hard!

My heart is full of flaws, and I won’t be happy if I don’t complain about it.

However--

Before I had time to get angry, I felt that being angry was too tiring.

As a result, he returned to his usual lifeless demeanor.

He turned the seat back and stared at his assistant Beatrice who looked like a mature woman with a pair of dead fish eyes.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Beatrice didn't care, but told him his intention.

"His Royal Highness Prince Richard and Mr. Wayne are already waiting outside and want to meet you."

The chairman suddenly said in shock: "Wait a minute, didn't I say that anyone who wants to meet with me must make an appointment one day in advance?"

In the past, he had successfully avoided countless troubles in this way.

"Yes, you said that."

Beatrice said with a slight regret: "But - the other party is His Royal Highness Richard, how can I bear to refuse?"

Even though he is in his thirties, he can still pretend to be cute like a little girl so naturally. In a sense, it is indeed an amazing ability.

"well."

The chairman sighed and covered his forehead.

——A woman’s position is indeed unreliable.

"Bring them in." He said solemnly.
