Different World Card Master: Change the World with Cards

215: Accident”Are you sure you want to act tonight?”

”I’m sure.”

”Exposing the royal family’s scandal will be very bad for the entire royal family’s reputation. You should know that you are also a member of the royal family and should uphold its dignity.”

”Uncle, don’t you think today is the best time? Many countries are present. When so many countries know, he won’t be able to cover this up.”

”Then the King will also know all of this, right?”

Julian was silent for a moment, but still assented.

...”Yes.”

Julian certainly knew the consequences of exposing everything, but he also clearly knew that his current predicament was caused by his father, the current King.

Actually, for his father, the King’s position, no matter which prince he handed it to, would still be his child. He wouldn’t lose anything.

He might have already sensed the conflict between his two sons, but he didn’t intervene.

But for Julian, losing the King’s position meant his death, and the death of his mother and his followers.

That’s why Julian chose to do this.

”Uncle, this is all what he owes Mother, and this is all the retribution he deserves.”

Anderson looked at his young nephew in front of him and suddenly felt that his sister had not raised this child in vain.

As the Queen’s younger brother, he naturally wanted to do this, but as the future King’s uncle, he still had an obligation to persuade him. He was also worried that Julian would regret it after doing this.

It should be known that if the royal family’s dignity decreased, it would be difficult to restore it later. Even if he became King, his throne might be unstable.

”Since you want to do this, Uncle will support you.”

The two raised their glasses to each other and clinked them, ushering in the evening’s operation.

The curtain rose, waiting for the show to begin... The voices of the two talking in the distance clearly reached Xu Bai’s ears.

Xu Bai was very helpless. He didn’t specifically want to eavesdrop; he didn’t want to be here at all.

It was just that a gust of wind blew, and the curtain accidentally covered him, and then these two came over and said all these words.

(°ー°
)

At this time, Xu Bai certainly couldn’t pull back the curtain to explain to them; he could only silently hold his glass and pray that they wouldn’t discover him.

If he were discovered, no matter how he explained, the other party wouldn’t believe him, and he would definitely be dragged away and silenced.

Fortunately, things didn’t develop in a bad direction. After they finished talking, they returned to the Hall and didn’t discover him.

It was also fortunate that he hadn’t brought Xu Le today, as he had thought that balls were prone to accidents and he could entrust him to the remaining students to look after.

It really was a self-fulfilling prophecy; an accident was indeed about to happen at the ball.

Xu Bai suddenly felt that this country was incompatible with him.

Otherwise, why would so many things happen after he came to this country?

That’s right, tonight he had to be well-behaved, after all, the future leader of this country was about to cause a big stir.

Thinking of this, he felt that it was not safe here and wanted to stay by Bai Shan’s side... After they left, Xu Bai stayed for a while longer before walking back to the Hall.

His eyes searched everywhere for Bai Shan’s figure.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, a brown-haired lady in a blue dress walked up to Mr. Bai, smiled, bowed slightly, and invited him.

”Hello, Mr. Bai, may I have the honor of inviting you to dance?”

Xu Bai put down the glass in his hand and said awkwardly.

”Uh, I’m very sorry, I don’t know how to dance.”

The other party, hearing Xu Bai’s refusal, was not discouraged and invited him again.

”It’s okay, the music is very gentle now, I can lead you.”

Faced with the other party’s renewed invitation, Xu Bai could only agree.

He imitated the movements of the gentlemen he had seen before, took the other party’s hand and placed it on his shoulder, then followed the rhythm, following the other party’s footsteps to dance. No, this shouldn’t be following, but rather the other party leading Xu Bai in the dance.

However, although Xu Bai had some theory knowledge, his practical skills were not good. Because he was a bit nervous, his movements appeared a bit stiff.

But fortunately, many of the students here were also novice dancers, so Xu Bai’s pair didn’t stand out that much.

The two chatted while dancing.

”Hello, Mr. Bai, my name is Trist Hall. My uncle visited the Tianlong Republic before and bought some of your cardss. I like them very much.”

Xu Bai realized that the other party was just a young girl who admired him, so he replied in a gentle tone.

”Thank you for your liking. I will work harder in the future.”

”Mm-hmm, are you interested in cooperating with us? That is, cooperating with the Hall Family to license your products for sale in the Roland Empire?”

Hearing this, Xu Bai had a feeling of ”just as I thought.” He had thought his charm was too great and he had gained a little fan, but it turned out she wanted to cooperate with him.

”May I ask what aspects of cooperation you are interested in?”

Hearing Xu Bai’s question, Trist hesitated for a moment, but still brought up what her family had told her before.

”Mr. Bai, we also know that our family is not qualified enough for cardss directly related to electric energy, but your company’s other products might be able to cooperate with us.”

Xu Bai heard this and felt that other products could indeed be developed in cooperation with others. The other party’s family was not particularly greedy and did not think of interfering with the generator cardss in cooperation.

”You can directly negotiate with Thunderbolt Company on this matter; I do not interfere.”

”Okay, thank you, Mr. Bai.”

Although she did not get Xu Bai’s direct promise, Trist at least knew that Xu Bai would not object to this matter, so it was a good start.

After their dance, the two bid farewell to each other.

Xu Bai walked directly towards the direction he had just seen. He had seen Bai Shan’s figure while dancing.

He walked to Bai Shan’s side, and because Bai Shan was still chatting with the person next to him, Xu Bai did not disturb him.

Bai Shan saw Xu Bai coming and thought Xu Bai must have something to tell him, after all, he had said before the ball that everyone should act independently.

So Bai Shan ended his conversation with the person in front of him, gestured to Xu Bai with his eyes, and the two walked to a corner together.

”Did something happen?”

At first, Xu Bai only thought of staying near Bai Shan for safety, but later he thought of the safety of the other students. He was the team leader and had to be responsible for the students, so he still gestured with his eyes that he had something to say.

Xu Bai told Bai Shan what he had just heard.

Bai Shan nodded, then led Xu Bai to find a few people in the venue and then stood still in the catering area.

Within a few minutes, the other students from the Tianlong Republic also gathered in the catering area, pretending to be tired from dancing and looking for food.

Now, it’s time for the show to begin.
