Chapter 1039: Princess, Maid, and Spy

"Miss Bu Lang, I don't think there's any need for you to say her name."

Xia De stopped her:

"It was that time she went to Regent Park to participate in activities. I know you turned around, wanting to deliberately avoid possible sight, but she recognized you just from your back, so I came."

From this, it can be seen how much psychological shadow that matter eight years ago left on the Princess with pale golden long hair.

The panic and despair on Miss Bu Lang's face did not diminish. She pursed her lips:

"She still remembers me?"

Xia De nodded slightly, his eyes scanning this narrow kitchen. His kitchen in Room 1 on the second floor alone was at least three times the size of here:

"Yes, she feels sorry for what happened back then. After you 'burned to death' in your apartment in Wei Lun Dai Er City, she was even more heartbroken. I think if she hadn't been thinking of you all along, she wouldn't have discovered you just from a back view."

Xia De told the truth:

"Miss Bu Lang, I'm just someone sent by that lady to investigate you. But in fact, I haven't told her yet that you are a person from the Military Intelligence Agency. She still thinks you are just an ordinary maid."

Xia De supported one hand on the table, his standing posture very relaxed:

"The only person who knows your secret is me."

Saying this, he looked at the gun patted on the table again:

"And what that Princess will know depends entirely on what I say."

"What do you want to get from me? Gold pounds? Secrets of the Military Intelligence Agency? Or my body?"

Miss Bu Lang asked while biting her lip, but didn't expect Xia De to shake his head:

"I don't want to threaten you with 'Miss Bu Lang, you wouldn't want your image in the Princess's heart to be destroyed.' What I want is for that Princess to be able to accept all this with the best mood, rather than knowing that the maid she has felt guilty about for eight years turned out to be a big liar."

His purpose was not to earn the reward of any party, so naturally, exposing the other party was not his main purpose.

Miss Bu Lang looked at him deeply:

"Sir, what is your relationship with the Princess?"

Xia De naturally wouldn't answer:

"I won't arrange for you to meet her. However, you have to write a letter. I won't interfere with the content of the letter. I will bring your letter to the Princess. After this, whether you will leave immediately, or wait for the Princess to decide whether to see you, this is all your own business."

He took out paper and pen from his pocket:

"Write now."

Then he took the purple cabbage:

"I'll help you cook, don't let your uncle suspect."

Seeing Xia De pick up the kitchen knife, Miss Bu Lang looked at the revolver that was left on the table without moving, and finally didn't take the risk.

She hesitated, and reminded him embarrassedly:

"Before cutting vegetables, it's best to wash the vegetables first... otherwise it will make people sick."

Xia De hoped that this noon, Mr. Bu Lang could accept the "unique" taste of scrambled eggs with purple cabbage.

When Miss Bu Lang wrote that letter, she hesitated for a long time, and wrote while crying on Xia De's notebook. From this point of view, the decision of the Military Intelligence Agency to let her retire immediately after that mission was correct. A qualified undercover agent shouldn't have feelings for the mission target, but clearly, this lady who pursued knowledge and art was a bit too emotional.

After Xia De finished cooking the scrambled eggs with purple cabbage that looked at least decent, Miss Bu Lang's letter was only two-thirds written.

Xia De waited for a long time before getting the folded paper. He looked at it in front of Miss Bu Lang, and then raised his eyebrows:

"I expected that you wouldn't hide too much, but I didn't expect you to say everything."

She directly revealed all the things, including that she was an undercover agent of the Military Intelligence Agency, and that she had obtained freedom by faking her death again.

"Hiding those things is meaningless, Sir. Since you can investigate my affairs, others can too."

Miss Bu Lang stood by the table with the steaming food and said:

"I won't run away. My family, my fiancé, and my studies are all here. If the Princess wants to see me, I can go see her at any time."

Xia De shook his head, not knowing what to say about this. In his view, if he hadn't known everything in advance, this might have been another tragedy where no one would be happy. And the most tragic point was that Xia De couldn't even think that anyone in this matter did anything wrong.

"You'd better be careful yourself. Since the Princess can discover you, maybe others will discover you too. I really can't understand why you returned to To Bei Si Ke."

He took the letter and prepared to leave.

"People always have some pursuits. My pursuit is knowledge and art."

Miss Bu Lang said softly, and watched Xia De take back the revolver:

"Please wish the Princess... peace in everything."

She didn't even eat lunch. Xia De took a carriage from Nuo Er Street directly to Canary Manor and met Princess Ma Ge Li Te who had just finished her morning schedule.

Because this wasn't Xia De's first visit to Canary Manor, the servants weren't surprised that Xia De came in a hurry. He waited in the study for a while before seeing Princess Ma Ge Li Te, who looked a bit tired, walk in:

"She is indeed still alive."

Xia De stood up and handed the letter to the Princess. The latter subconsciously took the letter before asking hesitantly:

"What is still alive?"

"That maid you asked me to find."

Xia De pointed to the letter:

"I have already found her, this is the letter she wrote to you. If after reading the letter, you still want to see her, I can take you directly to her."

The Princess with pale golden long hair reacted, her hand holding the letter subconsciously exerting force, and she looked at Xia De with slightly widened eyes:

"She... is still alive? But how is this possible? The fire back then... what happened here."

Although she entrusted Xia De to investigate, she didn't expect to get such a shocking answer, and Xia De's investigation speed was really too fast.

"The letter has the answer you want. Perhaps... the origin of the matter is a bit different from what you thought, but at least, according to the part of the truth I got from her mouth, you didn't make any irreparable mistakes back then."

He sat back on the short sofa, watching Princess Ma Ge Li Te take the letter and sit on the long sofa beside him, and then unfold the letter paper.

How rich can a person's expression be? This was something Xia De had never explored. But at least this time, he did see the rich expressions of this girl who had seen all kinds of things on Princess Ma Ge Li Te's face.

Clearly it was only three pages of content, but she spent a full twenty minutes reading it. In Xia De's view, Ma Ge Li Te An Ru had always been a girl with a strong character and extreme self-confidence, but this time he saw the hesitation, hesitation, anger, relief, and then an extremely complex expression on the Princess's face.

The letter paper was wrinkled at this time, and the Princess's beautiful eyes looked at Xia De:

"You also read that letter?"

"Yes, I had to make sure she wasn't lying."

The Princess pursed her lips:

"So, I was deceived for eight years?"

"But at least you don't have to miss those purple cabbages anymore."

Xia De said, looking at her. He knew that Princess Highness needed some psychological counseling at this time:

"At least one thing that has troubled you for a long time is gone."

"But I was deceived for eight years."

She repeated it again, staring at the letter in her hand.

"Ma Ge Li Te An Ru."

Xia De called the Princess's name. When the other party looked up at him, he stared firmly into the Princess's eyes:

"Then tell me, tell the truth. When you confirmed that Miss Be La Bu Lang was still alive, and living very well, were you very relieved in your heart?"

She wanted to dodge Xia De's eyes, but the moment she met Xia De's eyes, her gaze was firmly attracted by some power. Xia De hadn't learned any "charm" in any sense, but the eyes were the windows of the soul. The power derived from a powerful soul spontaneously attracted Princess Ma Ge Li Te's gaze.

She bit her lip:

"Yes, to be honest, I was indeed relieved."

"Because no one lost their life because of your picky eating and willfulness."

Hearing Xia De say "picky eating," the Princess blushed. She thought it was the maid who told Xia De about that matter:

"Yes, no one lost their life because of my willfulness. I was indeed very happy... oh, but I was indeed deceived by a liar for eight years. She turned out to be Military..."

"I won't defend Miss Bu Lang. She was unfaithful as your maid, this is something that has already happened, and you have the right to deal with her."

Xia De said, just wanting to ask how to deal with Miss Bu Lang next, but the Princess asked him again:

"This matter involved the Military Intelligence Agency, Xia De, don't you feel surprised? Although Ring Warlocks have seen more strange things, that is the Military Intelligence Agency after all."

"But Miss Bu Lang has already retired, she is no longer an agent."

Xia De said very seriously:

"Moreover, I promised you, so I will definitely do it. The Military Intelligence Agency is not an obstacle for me to complete the commission you gave me. Look, although I haven't found the female warlock you mentioned, at least the maid, I found her."

Ma Ge Li Te An Ru, for a moment, didn't dare to look at Xia De's smiling face:

"I know you want to comfort me, so I don't have to be angry because of this. Oh, Knight, I am the Second Princess of Ka Sen Li Ke, I am stronger than you think... You are right, it's good that she didn't die. Although I was deceived, at least I didn't do anything wrong."

"You stood on the moral high ground. In this matter, you are the complete victim. You can despise anyone in this matter and use your own actions to punish her."

Xia De said, and the Princess finally showed a smile. The corners of her mouth lifted slightly, and the contrast between the red lips and the fine white fluff at the corners of her mouth was exceptionally clear:

"Xia De, no need to persuade me anymore, I have adjusted my mood."

She looked at the letter on the side of her hand:

"Regardless, the matter eight years ago can be considered to have come to an end."

"Life always has many stories. Looking at it from a good side, at least the ending of this story is not a bad ending, isn't it?"

Xia De made the final summary. ===== CHAPTER 1040 =====
