As a hero

"Yuan Ge, this is the key to my laboratory. Inside there is a cabinet for manuscripts, where all my life-long learning is stored! You can go and see for yourself. If you don't understand anything, just ask me."

Grom handed over a bunch of keys.

Yuan Ge was quite surprised, he looked up at Grom.

Grom put away his wretched and ugly expression, and there was a bit of kindness and appreciation in his face: "The dean is my mentor, and you are recommended by the dean. I will definitely not treat you badly. I have seen The three kinds of potions you refined, your talents are amazing, even if I am now, I may not be able to make such good potions - you have to work hard, don't waste your talent."

This--

What are you doing?

Can you just be a bad guy in peace and don't show me favors all of a sudden!

"...Thank you professor, I will work hard."

"Work hard! The knowledge of potions is very profound, and it can be studied for a lifetime."

"Yes. Professor, I'll go back first, goodbye."

"Ah, bye."

Walking out of Grom's office, Yuan Ge looked at the key in his hand and threw it in the flower bed.

I don't care if Grom is a character?

Anyway, I disdain it.

……

……

In the evening, Yuan Ge returned to the bachelor's apartment.He opened the door with the key, walked two steps in, and suddenly stopped under his feet—there was someone in the room.

"The golden rose of the holy city", Hipps sat on the chair with his legs crossed, and looked at Yuan Ge with his chest folded.

"..."

"..."

The two looked at each other silently, Yuan Ge took a few steps back, and Hipps said, "Don't look, it's your house."

"Then why are you in my house again? I don't think it's reasonable, Miss Ships."

"You left without saying goodbye. William wanted to know your whereabouts, so I used my family's eyeliner to check - every move in the Holy City is under the watchful eye of Schippers, is it reasonable?"

Yuan Ge looked in disbelief: "What I find unreasonable is why are you at my house again? Could it be that William's mentality has collapsed again, and you want me to comfort him again?"

Hipps smiled noblely: "Common people, your reaction is very strange. You should be excited when a beautiful woman like me appears in your room, shouldn't you?"

"Can I be excited?"

"Of course, but I won't respond to it. You can rape me with your eyes, and that's the best you can do."

Ugh.

Annoying.

It's not that Hipps is annoyed by "common people" and "common people" - in terms of social rules without boundaries, it's normal for Ms. Hipps, who is well-born, to look down on common people, and Yuan Ge is certainly hard to accept , but can also be barely understood.

The most annoying thing is——

This woman is beautiful, but this woman has a sweetheart.

Yuan Ge can practice the origin of life with a woman he just met, but his moral sense does not allow him to do such a thing.

He asked: "Miss Shipps, I venture to ask: what is your relationship with William?"

Schippers put her hands on her waist—it was a defensive move, and she felt a little uneasy.Her voice was still crisp and her tone remained steady: "As you can see, we are lovers."

"Then does he know that you entered my room alone?"

"If you don't tell him, he won't know."

Ahhh - William.

You may have many hats in the future, I am really worried about your nervous breakdown.

Yuan Ge sat down opposite Hipps and said, "Tell me, miss. You don't come to my room to check the living standards of the common people, do you?"

"Hey—you common man's speech is really interesting. How can I care about the life and death of insects? I don't care if a person like you dies 1 times?"

Yuan Ge looked at Hipps quietly;

Shippers also stared at him intently.

In the silent room, there was no sound.The wind blew outside the window, the sky blue curtains fluttered, and Hilps' blond hair swayed.

"Common people...turn around."

"what?"

"I tell you to turn around."

"Unexplainable request, are you trying to stab me in the back?"

Hipps lowered his eyes, and his long eyelashes cast a shadow on his eyelids: "Ridiculous guess, I don't want to be stained with dirty blood. There are a hundred ways to kill you. Turn around , don't look at my face."

Yuan Ge guessed that this person had something to say, so he followed her instructions and turned his back.

"Common people, I may...lose everything now."

After a long silence, Hipps confided.

Chapter 34

"The surname of Hipps is an honor. One of the Eight Imperial Clans of the Holy City, they have been the finance ministers of Sknudi for generations. The children of the family are either official positions, or have great military achievements, or are celebrities in society. Because... those descendants who have no talent are deprived of their surnames and exiled to live in unknown villages."

"It was a blessing and a disaster that I was born in Ships. It was my brother who was stripped of his surname a year ago and I have not heard from him since. Deported Ships Sri Lankans are not allowed to stay in the holy city——next, it will be my turn."

Miss Ships' voice was steady.

Steady sorrow, steady despair, her tone did not waver, but it was not firm.

Yuan Ge didn't turn around, he said, "As for it? Aren't you the Golden Rose of the Holy City?"

"It's because my last name is Hipps."

"Are you a skilled swordsman?"

"Useless is a swordsman. If I were a magician or a healer, or even a ranger, I wouldn't need to worry about it--by the way, a knight is barely enough, and a sword and shield is useless. Can't master mana , that is to wait."

Yuan Ge was silent for a while, and then said: "Then you eat William Smith to death! Use your long legs, your delicacy and profligacy, and your best efforts to keep him. He is an orthodox brave man, you If you become an orthodox Mrs. Brave, wouldn’t you be a great success?”

"Pfft—don't make me laugh, common people. Don't treat me like an uninformed country girl. I'm confident in my appearance and figure. I can seduce men too, but any pretty woman can do these superficial jobs. Do it. As the years go by, my beauty will fade away, and there will always be someone young in this world... At that time, what should I do? In a dark and small room, in a poor and dead life , watched him put his arms around the beautiful young girl, and then cursed viciously while dying powerlessly?"

Her voice was a little sharp.

Her emotions, a little excited.

Perhaps because of living in a high-pressure competitive environment since he was a child, Schilps issued a superior opinion;

Perhaps it is because she has already envisioned such a future, so Hipps described the tragic future she may encounter so realistically.

Yuan Ge turned around.

On Hilps' face, he didn't see a trace of bewilderment or helplessness.

Even for the desperate argument just now, she hugged her chest, raised her chin, and said it bit by bit in a crisp voice.

It's like talking about someone else's experience.

This annoying woman has a strong psychological quality.

She smiled and said disdainfully: "Common people, who allowed you to turn around? Want to see my ugliness? Impossible, even on the day when I am deprived of my surname, I will never forget my elegant smile .”

"The strength of your soul moves me. Miss Shipps, you are a man worthy of respect."

"Ha - being respected by a commoner is not a compliment at all."

"You have your answer too, I don't need to beak."

"Is it?"

Yes.

Now Hilps has put on a conservative red dress.The cool low-cut dress she wore in the classroom earlier was lying on Yuan Ge's bed——

This woman seems to be changing clothes at Yuan Ge's house.

Yuan Ge continued, "You've actually been shaken. You catered to Grom's interest and specially changed into this low-cut skirt when he was in class."

"..."

Silence, Silence.

"Grom's character is not to be commended, but he is indeed a talented potionist. If you can get his guidance, you can easily pass the advanced exams-he hinted at you, didn't he?"

"..."

Hipps was silent again.

Hipps is here for a reason.

Yuan Ge keenly grasped the reason.

He went on to say: "Originally, everything was logical, but there was an accident - this accident was me. I knew William Smith, became Grom's assistant, and also learned about your relationship with Grom. You're worried about Grom telling me something that 'could happen' and I telling William about it. You don't want William to know about it, do you? I can't think of any other reason for you to be here other than this possibility .”

"..."

Silps, fell silent again.

Yuan Ge said: "Don't worry. Whatever you want, you can do it boldly. I will never tell anyone about anything."

Hilps suddenly raised his head and said, "Public, you are smarter than I imagined, but you are also very stupid-why try to guess my mind? You are just a mere small commoner!"

"Ok?"

"Um what?"

Hipps showed a fearless smile. She raised her legs and said, "I hope you can tell William the whole thing. Only this time, I allow you to use insulting language to attack me. Describe me as a lowly whore. I want you to expose me for who I am, and to destroy my relationship with William - and you know that an unfaithful woman, a woman who is willing to sell her body for profit, does not deserve his love. "

Varied……

what?

Yuan Ge was stunned for a long time before he understood what Hipps meant.

With a bit of disbelief, he asked the beauty in front of him: "What do you mean——you want me to tell everything clearly?"

"Yes."

"Don't you like William?"

This time, Hipps was silent for a long time.

She said: "Because I love him, I don't want to hurt him. Becoming a senior potion master is the only way to keep my surname. Let me be this bad woman. I am very selfish."

"...William might be upset."

"Common people, unlike you, William has a lot of women. If there is no restraint from me, those beautiful girls you can't even say a word will line up and wait to get into his bed? So, without me , he might be happier."

you--

Why are you telling me this!

Damn, my heart hurts!

Yuan Ge hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Miss Shipps, does William know that you want to become a potion master?"

"Of course. It's no secret."

"He didn't help you with anything?"

"How can he help? He doesn't know anything about refining medicine."

Yuan Ge considered his words: "Maybe——he can introduce someone who has the ability to refine medicine to assist you."

"Common people... your ignorance surprises me. If high-level potion masters are so common and visible, why should I waste time on them? It is because of their rarity that my family will recognize a descendant with the ability to refine medicine .”

what--

Is that so?

Hipps stood up and hung the dress on the bed in his hands: "I've talked too much today, forget it. If I pass the examination of a senior potionist, please tell William——I will end with him gone."
