After all, she appeared next to Elizabeth in a flash.

"Where do we start? There are too many books here."

"Let the librarian here help you find it. He knows where every book is placed."

Joanna said.

"Otherwise, it's daytime now, and the administrator is probably taking a break. Let's look for it ourselves." Elizabeth hesitated for a moment, and then said.

Joanna curled her lips and said disdainfully: "The servants are just for bossing around. Are you stupid because of reading? You are the princess, Elizabeth! Wait here, I will call him."

Just then, footsteps came from the stairs.

A slender figure walked down from the second floor, and then a polite voice sounded——

"Your Highness, are you looking for a book? What type of romance novel do you want to read?"

An extremely familiar voice reached my ears.

Elizabeth stiffened, and then a look of surprise appeared on her beautiful face: "It's you!"

Even if she could forget her identity as a princess, she would never forget the voice that narrated "Romeo and Juliet".

Elizabeth looked suddenly, and sure enough, a handsome and handsome face came into view.

Even Joanna was surprised to see Fang Qingyan here.

The last time she came to pick up the books, she just waited outside the door and ordered her servants to come in... So he was the new administrator that Bard's old butler mentioned before?

Fang Qingyan had an infectious smile on his face, looked at Elizabeth calmly, and said politely: "Long time no see, Your Highness, you are as beautiful as ever."

While speaking, he had already used his mental power to scan Elizabeth's body.

Sure enough, she had the key with her. It was a very ordinary, rusty bronze key. It was ugly. It is impossible for any noble lady to use it as an ornament, but Elizabeth used it as a necklace, wore it on her slender and white neck like a gooseneck, and kept it close to her.

This shows that she is a very emotional person.

Fang Qingyan's eyes flashed slightly, but his smile remained the same.

I was actually making some calculations in my mind.

Now that Elizabeth is very close to him, he can snatch the key away at any time, or use the super power of "mind control" to make her hand over the key like a puppet.

But Fang Qingyan didn't plan to do that, because Elizabeth was Carstein's daughter.

"Why are you here?"

Elizabeth's face was filled with unprecedented happiness, and she quickly walked to Fang Qingyan and asked.

Fang Qingyan repeated what he had said to Old Butler Bard before.

"Ah? Has that old man passed away?"

Elizabeth's eyes showed a hint of sadness. The last time she saw Carstein, she felt that the old earl was in very bad health, and she didn't expect that he had really passed away.

Fang Qingyan blinked, what kind of grandpa? That's your dad...his biological dad!

However, he did not intend to talk too much about Carstein. The past was in the past, the dead were gone, and the living were stronger.

"Ahem, your highness the princess must be looking for a book, right?"

Fang Qingyan said, reaching for the wooden ladder for climbing the bookshelf, and asked with a smile, "What book do you want to read?"

"I want to read a book that touches people's hearts just like Romeo and Juliet!"

Elizabeth's eyes glowed with dazzling light, and she couldn't help but clenched her pink fists, "Is there any in the library?"

Romeo and Juliet…

Fang Qingyan paused, gently put down the wooden ladder, and returned it to its original position.

Then he shook his head: "Then I really don't have one here!"

Elizabeth's little face suddenly became stunned, and her excitement was swept away.

Joanna next to her snorted proudly. She said yes or no, but if you still don’t believe it, you have to come here in person. Are you giving up now?

Suddenly, Elizabeth remembered something, became energetic again, and raised her head.

Her aqua blue eyes looked at Fang Qingyan expectantly: "You don't have one here, then... do you have one?"

She put all her hopes on Fang Qingyan.

Just because you can’t find a good book doesn’t mean you can’t hear a good story!

Facing her beautiful and nervous gaze, Fang Qingyan showed an infectious smile: "Yes!"

"Really?"

Elizabeth was so excited that she wanted to jump three meters high and rushed to Fang Qingyan, "You didn't lie to me?"

"It's true." Fang Qingyan nodded firmly and asked her, "Princess, do you want to hear it?"

"think!"

Elizabeth nodded without hesitation.

Even the maid Joanna showed expectant eyes.

However, Fang Qingyan shook his head: "I can tell you a story, but I have two small requirements."

How dare a little servant make demands of Her Royal Highness?

If it were anyone else, I'm afraid he would have ordered someone to drag Fang Qingyan out to feed the dogs.

But Elizabeth did not hesitate at all. She nodded repeatedly like a chicken pecking at rice: "Of course, I haven't paid you back the dance I owed you last time. Just tell me what you want. A wonderful story is priceless." Yes, you can give me whatever you want in return."

Fang Qingyan turned to look at Joanna beside him and said with a smile: "The first condition is that the story can only be told to one person."

Elizabeth was stunned.

Immediately, she turned back sharply and abandoned Joanna ruthlessly: "Ahem, then... just go out and wait."

Joanna's eyes widened and she looked frustrated. She wanted to hear it too.

But there was a difference between master and servant, so she had no choice but to give way to Elizabeth.

Joanna still had to keep the princess safe, so she didn't go far and stood by the door.

"Speak quickly, tell me quickly, what's the second condition!"

Elizabeth asked excitedly.

Fang Qingyan squinted his eyes and slowly moved his gaze down from her face, stopping on her sizable chest.

"The second condition is that I want you, Your Highness Princess..."

Elizabeth was so frightened that she hugged herself, shrank back, and shook her head like a rattle: "This... this won't work."

"Ahem, I haven't finished speaking yet, don't be nervous."

Fang Qingyan knew there was a misunderstanding, so he could only blurt out: "I want something from you to commemorate the encounter with Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

call--

Elizabeth breathed a sigh of relief.

If you just want something personal, that's not a problem.

She nodded and looked at Fang Qingyan with clear eyes: "What do you want?"

"Hmm~ Let me think about it...what do you want..."

Fang Qingyan rubbed his chin with his slender fingers, pretending to think, and looked Elizabeth up and down, then smiled and said, "The necklace on Her Majesty's neck is very beautiful. I want this. If you are willing to take it off and give it to me, I will give it to you. Tell ten stories, I guarantee you will like each one!”

Although with some coaxing elements.

But it's actually a fair deal.

By obtaining the key in this way, Fang Qingyan was worthy of his own conscience and worthy of the old Count Carstein.

Chapter 42

"You want my necklace?"

Elizabeth was stunned for a moment, then frowned, shook her head and said, "This...this won't work either. This necklace is the only relic left by my mother to me. It's not beautiful either. If you don't believe me, I'll show it to you."

She gently took off the lock on the necklace with her bare hands, took it out, and showed it to Fang Qingyan.

This bronze key is indeed too ordinary. If used as a decoration, it would look ugly. Even if it is thrown on the ground, no one will bend down to pick it up.

"It's not beautiful..." Elizabeth hesitated and hesitated, "Moreover, it is not just a relic of my mother to me, there is also a very important reason..."

Her little hands held the key tightly, as if it were more valuable than life.

More than just a relic from my mother?

Is there a more important meaning?

Her words aroused Fang Qingyan's strong curiosity, and he asked: "What is the reason? Is it convenient for Your Highness to tell me?"

reason……

Elizabeth seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly, her pretty face turned red, so red that she was about to smoke!

She quickly shook her head, hurriedly avoiding Fang Qingyan's aggressive gaze, and stammered: "This...can't say, it is...my secret."

It seemed like this question made her extremely shy!

This made Fang Qingyan burning with the desire to reveal the secret. He narrowed his narrow eyes, took a step forward, and said in a seductive voice: "Your Highness, let's do this... I don't want your key anymore. As long as you tell me the secret, I will How about I tell you a story?"

His voice sounded like the devil's temptation, ringing near her tiny, crystal clear ears.

Fang Qingyan was determined to figure out, what was more important to Elizabeth than a fascinating love story?

Gudong~

Elizabeth's throat rolled hard, and a tangled and hesitant look appeared on her delicate and beautiful face, but in the end she shook her head and said shyly: "This secret really can't be told... I'm embarrassed to say it, but you will definitely You're laughing at me...I won't tell you!"

Deceive failed!

Fang Qingyan narrowed his eyes slightly. If you don't tell me, can't I know? I want to know!

"Your Highness the Princess."

He suddenly spoke.

Elizabeth subconsciously looked up at him, and immediately met a pair of eyes that were deeper than the abyss, glowing with a faint purple light... Fang Qingyan's eyes were beautiful, but they were like bottomless black holes, seeming to swallow up everything in Elizabeth... …Including the soul.

Elizabeth's beautiful eyes became blank.

And Fang Qingyan has entered her inner world...the deepest part!

Sixteen years ago.

When Elizabeth was four years old, her mother Camilla fell into depression because she missed Count Carstein, and finally walked into the scorching sun and disappeared into ashes.

At that time, Elizabeth was just a little girl who didn't understand anything.

She doesn't understand why her mother is sad? Why despair? Why commit suicide?

"Father, why doesn't mom want me anymore?"

She asked Marquis Morpheus this question for the first time, but her father did not answer her. He remained silent and looked terrible.

Elizabeth was unwilling to get the answer and asked every day, every month, and every year...

She wanted to know why her mother didn't want her anymore?

Until one day two years later.

When Elizabeth asked her father this question again, Marquis Morpheus finally answered her.

Marquis Morpheus's answer was only four words - because of love.
