What to do if you are spotted by the straight man next door

When the plane took off, Su Bin glanced at Ellen from time to time.

"Worried?" Ellen glanced at him with a smile, and said, "This time we are flying on the airline of country B. When I bought the ticket, I requested special services for hemophiliacs. Now there are accompanying medical staff in the cabin. There is also first aid equipment, so there will be no serious problems." Ellen squeezed Su Bin's hand tightly.

Su Bin was shocked by such a large formation, but he was also relieved after learning about these safety guarantees. In fact, as long as Ellen does not lose consciousness, he is his own doctor, and Su Bin is afraid of the fainting situation before.

With Ellen's company, the ten-hour flight was not at all difficult. The two chatted and slept, watched the latest movie, and had the first-class high-end catering service, and the time passed quickly.

It was late at night when we arrived in City D, and when we saw the familiar Bentley, Su Bin asked in surprise, "Robert also came to City D?"

Ellen: "He has been working for the Lewis family for more than 20 years, and now he only follows me."

Seeing Ellen, Robert rarely showed some personal emotions: "Master, I miss you very much..."

Ellen smiled and said, "I'm fine, Robert. Happy New Year."

Western countries divide the old and new years according to the Western calendar. Now that New Year's Day has passed, it is indeed a new year.

Ellen pulled Su Bin forward, and said to Robert: "Robert, I want to introduce you formally, this Mr. Su, he is no longer just my friend...I have accepted him as a member of the Louis family, He belongs to me and is now a part of me."

Robert showed a surprised expression: "You mean..."

Ellen smiled: "As you understand."

Su Bin: "..."

Robert frowned and said, "But he's a boy."

Ellen: "Robert, if you can't turn the corner for a while, you can temporarily treat him as my younger brother."

Robert hesitated for a moment, then bowed slightly to Ellen: "Young master, congratulations on having a family." Then he nodded slightly to Su Bin: "Mr. Su, I hope you will treat the Duke well, and I wish you a long life."

Su Bin: "Thank you, Robert..."

Robert: "Please get in the car first."

After getting into the car, Su Bin was restless. Seeing his preoccupied look, Ellen asked, "What's wrong?"

There were too many things in the conversation just now that made Su Bin wonder. For example, after Ellen introduced herself to Robert, what did Robert understand?What is unable to turn?What did Robert mean by "Congratulations on having a family" to Ellen?And the last sentence that Robert said to himself, "Be kind to the Duke"...Su Bin's mind was about to explode after receiving too much information at once.

Ellen said, "Ask whatever you want."

Su Bin looked at Ellen, and said hesitantly, "Are you the Duke?"

This is the first time that Su Bin has heard others mention Ellen's real identity. In fact, after seeing the "secret" outside the medical building of M University last time, Su Bin has already guessed that Ellen's identity is noble, but before Due to his status as an ordinary roommate, he has been afraid to ask more questions.

Ellen glanced at him with a smile: "Yes."

Su Bin said embarrassedly: "I don't quite understand the title system in country B... Does the duke have a high status?" To be honest, he learned the word "duke" because there is a famous pen brand duke. In his heart, The image of the Duke is all Quaker oatmeal kind of curly-haired old man, but Ellen is so young...

Before Ellen could answer, Robert couldn't listen anymore: "Mr. Su, in country B, the duke is the highest nobleman next to the king or prince."

Su Bin: "..." OAO is the most, most advanced...

Robert's voice was not heavy, but he sounded slightly annoyed. He seemed to want to say more, but Ellen stopped him.

Ellen looked at Su Bin, and explained slowly: "Our country has a different political system from China. Country B implements a monarchy and retains the privileges of the nobility for a long time. The status and glory are no longer what they used to be, but in the local area, the common people still follow the awe of the nobles."

Su Bin was speechless, he was startled by Robert's words... If what Robert said is true, then Ellen has a higher status than the prince?

orz...

Su Bin tried hard to recall whether he had overstepped and offended Ellen, and the more he thought about it, the more panic he felt. Although he was not a citizen of country B, his awe of the strong and superior still existed in his bones.

Ellen put her arms around his waist and asked, "Are you scared?"

Su Bin said honestly, "I'm surprised..."

He thought that he was going to Ellen's house soon, and he began to feel uneasy again: "Is there someone else in your house? How should I talk to them? I'm afraid I can't say well..."

Ellen moved her palm up to cover his head, twisted Su Bin's earlobe with one hand, and said softly, "There is no one else but me."

"...Only you?" Su Bin thought of what Robert said just now, and suddenly had some bad guesses in his heart. Could it be...

Ellen's next words confirmed his conjecture: "I have no family."

In Western countries, an adult's so-called family generally refers to "parents, brothers and children". Ellen has no children, and his mother died in China. This is known to Su Bin... What about Ellen's father?Does he have other siblings too?

"My father died when I was eight," Ellen said softly.

Su Bin: "I'm sorry..." He thought that after Ellen's mother passed away, Ellen at least had a father, but unexpectedly, his father left one step earlier than his mother!No wonder he was so sad after Ellen's mother passed away, because there was only one person left...

It is obviously a person who is more fragile than normal people and is more likely to lose his life, but he stays alone. Is it happiness or misfortune?Ellen must have suffered a lot until today, right?No wonder Robert wanted to "treat the Duke well".

Seeing the sympathetic look in Su Bin's eyes again, Ellen squeezed his ears hard, and said with a light smile, "I don't have brothers or sisters, but I have many relatives, and they all treat me very well."

Su Bin: "..."

Ellen's "home" is not in the city center of D, nor is it in the world-famous wealthy area, but in the countryside of D City, where there is a mansion inherited from the ancestors of the Louis family.

After the car drove into the countryside, Su Bin was greatly shocked when he saw the dark field outside the car window and the huge house that seemed to rise from the ground not far away.

After the car stopped, two people stood at the door to meet her. They both respectfully called Ellen "Duke of Lance", and one of them went to the car to unload the luggage.

Ellen pulled Su Bin into the door, and ordered the servants some trivial matters in the other hall.

"Your Excellency, you didn't say you would bring friends... are you going to prepare the guest room now?" an elderly-looking woman asked.

"No need, Mary, arrange for him to be in the same room as me." Ellen introduced Su Bin in the same way as when Robert introduced him. The other party's initial reaction was the same as Robert's, but she smelled After speaking, he quickly gave Su Bin a gentle smile.

Mary: "Hot wine and refreshments are prepared in the kitchen. Does the Duke need it now?"

Ellen: "I've always had some mulled grapes. Uh, do you have muffins? If you have any, please take them to the bedroom. We need to adjust to jet lag, and I'm a little tired. I want to go to bed now."

Mary responded and quickly went to prepare. Ellen glanced at Su Bin who was silent, stood up and said, "Follow me."

Su Bin didn't dare to ask more questions, and followed Ellen up the stairs. The stairs were covered with thick carpets, and the smooth solid wood handrails were carved with exquisite patterns. They looked old...

The bedroom is large, and many things here are retro, giving people a time-traveling feeling.

Mary quickly brought hot wine and tea and put them on the table, and Ellen asked her to collect the glasses and trays in half an hour.

Ellen handed a glass of red wine to Su Bin: "What are you thinking?"

Su Bin restrained: "Is this your home?"

Ellen: "Did you mean Roland Manor?"

Su Bin: "Is Roland Manor the name of this house?"

Ellen smiled: "Not only the house, but the land within a hundred miles, including woodland and lakes, all belong to Roland Manor."

Su Bin: "..."

Ellen stretched out her hand to caress the old-looking sofa, with thoughts and sadness in her eyes: "Unfortunately, I am the last heir here, and my father fought for my rights, including my current status... ...I will have no descendants, and after my death, Roland Manor will no longer belong to the Louis family..."

Ellen was silent for a moment, then looked at Su Bin: "Sit next to me." Su Bin was pulled by Ellen to lean on his shoulder, Ellen rubbed his neck and said, "You have something on your mind."

How can there be no worries?Su Bin is being dragged into his world by Ellen a little bit. This world is completely different from what Su Bin has been in contact with before. This is not only "sparkling" to describe, status, power, money... Su Bin thinks Suddenly, he was so small and insignificant by Ellen.

"Don't take this too seriously," Ellen leaned over and gave Su Bin a comforting kiss, "Mu, you just need to remember the content of our oath, my identity will never be changed for you Change……"

For a person like Ellen, why did he go to China for himself?Why did you choose to promise yourself a lifetime?Every discovery made Su Bin feel shocked and terrified.

Su Bin was looking at Ellen with a moved face, when he suddenly felt itchy feet, and then felt a pain in his leg, Su Bin turned his head and gasped—a big hairball was squatting on his leg!

Hairball's face is brown, as are its ears and limbs. Only its body is white, which looks like a civet cat.

"This, this is... a cat?" Su Bin stared at it tensely.

Ellen chuckled, stared at the cat and said, "Mua, get down."

——mua?This is the cat's name?

The cat obviously didn't listen to Ellen's words, not only didn't leave, but even scratched its paws with the pants on Su Bin's lap.

Ellen stretched out her finger, and quickly flicked it between the cat's nose and forehead: "Go down."

"Meow..." the big fat cat wailed and ran away.

Su Bin patted his knee... Wait, why did Ellen's flick of the fingers look so familiar?
