Chapter 161: Calm before the Storm (3)

Prime Minister Jake saw Aurora chuckling and smiled in response. "So, do you think..."

"Prime Minister Jake, may I ask what you have heard lately?" Aurora interrupted before Prime Minister Jake finished speaking.

Her etiquette taught her not to interrupt others before they finished speaking, but Aurora knew very well hat such etiquette was useless in front of Prime Minister Jake. If he was being left alone, it was estimated that he might even speak more nonsense that could make one angry.

Having faced Prime Minister Jake in several negotiations, Aurora knew this very well.

Provoking someone seemed to be Prime Minister Jake’s speciality.

"About how bad you are?" Prime Minister Jake rubbed his chin. "I think that most of them are nonsense. No matter how annoying you are on the negotiation table, you’re not the type to bully others weaker than you."

Because even without physical bullying, Aurora could already crush others easily with her ability.

Why resort to tricks when she could use other upright means?

Besides, with Aurora’s IQ, she would not use such useless and stupid tactics.

As Aurora’s old opponent, Prime Minister Jake naturally knew Aurora’s ability. If she were to use those kind of stupid tactics in front of him, he would have long defeated Aurora with his speaking ability and others.

But no, she won over the negotiation with her skills.

It was different from those ’bullying.’

"The funniest thing is that many people believed it." Prime Minister Jake looked at Aurora with inquiring look. He could guess that Aurora might have offended someone at the top because this kind of method also existed in his kingdom.

But to use it so blatantly like this... Prime Minister Jake felt that whoever did it was really stupid.

"Not many people are smart enough to know that they’re actually being used by others," Aurora replied calmly.

These people who only listened to the rumors and didn’t try to verify the truth were common. They were used to listen to others without using their brain. Even if the statement sounded illogical, they would still follow through and followed whatever was said.

This kind of action....

Aurora felt that they were really stupid.

But she couldn’t really blame them.

Many commoners didn’t receive any education whatsoever. They were not taught to think but to work and their work didn’t really require them to be smart and being able to think or anything like that.

So Aurora leave them be.

These people could be used by her enemies and could also be used by herself if she truly wanted to.

Of course, the premise was that Aurora wanted to.

If she didn’t want to, she would ignore them.

"I know." Prime Minister Jake smiled. "But since you’ve offended them, there wouldn’t be any problem even if you follow me to the Sand Kingdom."

Aurora: "..."

She could see that this prime minister truly didn’t know the word giving up. He still wanted to bring Aurora to the Sand Kingdom as fast as possible and if she disagreed, he would continue to persuade her.

"I respectfully refuse."

"If you’re refusing because of the Yellow Kingdom, I don’t think it’s worth it." Prime Minister Jake clicked his tongue and sipped the tea in front of him slowly. He felt quite thirsty after talking for a while.

"Yellow Kingdom?" Aurora repeated and shook her head.

If it was only because of Yellow Kingdom, Aurora would not refuse Prime Minister Jake’s words repeatedly. Because if Aurora had to say for herself, she didn’t have much feelings for this kingdom.

Perhaps one would tell that she was too cold hearted.

But this was the true feelings within Aurora’s heart.

She didn’t care too much about these kind of intangible things.

Wouldn’t it be better for her to think more about the benefits and other things that she could receive?

Aurora admitted.

She’s selfish.

But even if it was not because of the Yellow Kingdom itself, Aurora had no intention of moving to the Sand Kingdom.

"The Sand Kingdom is not very peaceful right now," Aurora said slowly. "There are a lot of frictions at the border too, Prime Minister Jake."

Prime Minister Jake’s movement of drinking paused. He laughed dryly. "So you also heard about those, Miss Aurora?"

Aurora glanced at Prime Minister Jake calmly.

She was used to work on various matters and for these things, information could be considered as the most important thing. And for the past few years, she was not idle and had been preparing herself.

As for the matter of staying with other kingdoms...

Aurora refused.

She liked being free.

The current state was pretty good and even if there were some unpleasant situation, Aurora had already thought about how to deal with them.

Of course, she would deal it with her own way.

Whether others agree or not didn’t matter.

"If there’s nothing else, I’ll return first, Prime Minister Jake," Aurora said as she stood up.

"There’s just one more thing." Prime Minister Jake looked at Aurora deeply and said, "You do know the saying of destroying what one couldn’t get, do you?"

Aurora paused for a moment, her eyes flickered. She looked at Prime Minister Jake and showed a polite smile. "How could I not know about this saying, Prime Minister Jake?"

"Good." Prime Minister Jake leaned back and then said, "See you soon on the next negotiation, Miss Aurora. The other representatives from the other two kingdoms should also arrive soon."

So it was true that Prime Minister Jake was here because of the negotiation that would come in a few days.

But that negotiation’s time should be after her graduation party.

And Aurora was not informed about this matter.

Aurora’s eyes flickered and she shook her head. "I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed, Prime Minister Jake."

Disappointed?

Before Prime Minister Jake could ask what Aurora meant, she had already walked away. She had no intention to spend more time with Prime Minister Jake in this cafe today or there would be more strange rumors appearing.
