Chapter 193: As for now, Eula, I haven't had my fill yet

And Ye Ruo's birthday soon arrived.

This led to him receiving many gifts from everyone in the Knights of Favonius, and a large-scale birthday party was held in the Knights' headquarters.

After all, he was a Favonius Knight.

Even if he would frequently slip away and run off everywhere,

leaving all the work for Jean to handle,

he remained a knight in the Order, standing shoulder-to-shoulder with the Acting Grand Master, Jean.

Not to mention, the changes he had triggered during this period were far too astonishing.

Whether it was the novels, the yaks, the beast cavalry squad, the Whopperflowers, the planting of such a massive tree, or the heavyweight confrontation with the Stormterror.

This was, after all, a companion of the Anemo Archon.

And a frenzied one at that.

Yet Ye Ruo was still able to intercept it.

He even worked with the Anemo Archon to save the Dragon of the East.

This feat alone was enough to send his prestige soaring wildly.

A powerhouse is always highly valued within the Knights.

So, during the party, the gazes of those young female knights were incredibly fiery.

They looked as if they wanted to pounce on him and devour him whole.

Many knights were also frantically offering toasts; it was extremely lively.

After it had continued for a long time, everyone finally went home.

After all, they had to go to work the next day.

And just as Ye Ruo intended to head back, Jean suddenly called out to him.

"Senior, this is a birthday gift for you."

"Please, you must accept it."

At this moment, Jean looked very serious and heroic.

This made Ye Ruo smile; he accepted the gift and then waved goodbye.

After all, Eula had said she wanted to celebrate with him privately this time.

She had even asked him for the house keys and had gone back early.

It seemed this tsundere girl, Eula, intended to give him a big surprise.

And after Ye Ruo left, only Jean remained, silently watching his departing figure until her good friend Lisa quietly appeared and nudged her with her arm.

Only then did Jean snap out of it.

Seeing this scene, Lisa chuckled to herself.

"Stop looking, Ye Ruo is already gone."

"Who would have thought that Grand Master Jean, who is usually so strict with her work, would have such a side to her—like a young girl in love who can't bring herself to say it."

"If the rest of the Knights knew about this, I'm afraid many hearts would be shattered."

These words made a faint blush appear on Jean's face, and she hurriedly denied it.

"That's not it, Lisa. Don't talk nonsense."

Lisa laughed with a dark, mischievous glint in her eyes, her laughter bright and vibrant.

"Alright, alright, I won't talk nonsense then."

Lisa had, of course, noticed her friend's feelings.

But she also knew.

Because of her noble upbringing, Jean could only bury her thoughts deep in her heart when facing Ye Ruo, who already had a partner.

After all, there was herself first, and Eula later.

Jean was not the type of person to rashly disturb their happiness.

So Jean could only be like this; she would never speak of these things.

Even if Lisa wanted to bring it up, it would only make her so shy and frustrated that she would shut herself away.

There was no helping it.

Jean was just such a green, inexperienced girl.

Very mature at work.

But when it came to love, she was a complete novice.

And in Lisa's eyes, Ye Ruo—who seemed serious on the surface but was actually someone who craved the company of beautiful girls—couldn't possibly have failed to notice this.

But his cunning point appeared here.

Clearly, he wanted to "consume" himself and Eula first.

To do the ideological work for the two of them.

I'm afraid that once it reached that stage, Jean wouldn't be able to escape his grasp either.

To put it bluntly.

This bad guy had chosen to advance steadily, not wanting to flip the boat by being too impatient.

So Lisa could only roll her eyes.

Poor Jean, completely kept in the dark.

Because Ye Ruo had indeed succeeded; in any case, she, Lisa, had been hooked. That guy seemed to possess some kind of magic; his attraction to her was terrifyingly strong.

She had truly fallen completely.

Even Lisa herself was puzzled: could it be that Ye Ruo had some kind of constitution that attracted witches?
