Chapter 162: Calm before the Storm (4)

Prime Minister Jake didn’t stand up and stared in the direction where Aurora left.

He felt that the last thing Aurora said to him had another meaning.

But if his conjecture is true.

"Ah... how stupid..."

Prime Minister Jake shook his head. He leaned forward once again and sipped the tea in front of him.

It seemed that the situation would be more favorable for the Sand Kingdom if it was true.

But...

Prime Minister Jake felt that it wouldn’t be so much fun anymore.

’Eh, so be it. I don’t have to manage so much anymore.’

...

After coming out of the cafe, Aurora sighed deeply.

Honestly, Prime Minister Jake was a smart person and this kind person was really hard to deal with. But then again, if Prime Minister Jake was not smart, it would have been impossible for him to reach that position in the first place.

Aurora went back to the Capital Academy.

Upon her arrival, she found that Louis was already waiting for her. From his posture, it seemed that he had long known that Aurora went out to pay a visit to Prime Minister Jake and he was suspicious.

Honestly, Aurora felt amused when she saw Louis’s action.

"Why did you go out of the Capital Academy?" Louis asked when he saw Aurora returning and didn’t bother paying attention to him.

He heard news from one of the juniors that Aurora went out suddenly.

In the past few months after Aurora’s return, she had never left the Capital Academy and continued to stay here no matter what happened.

How could she suddenly come out?

It was almost time for their graduation party and Louis was naturally suspicious.

"Why should I answer your question, Sir Louis?" Aurora asked back, her tone was calm and indifferent.

"Because I’m part of the student council and it’s my task to take care of the students in the academy," Louis quickly replied.

Student council?

That broken organization was truly of no use ever since they were founded in the Capital Academy. The student council room was used by Crown Prince Edward to laze around and play.

Other students who truly wanted to do what the student council had to do were unable to really do anything.

Without the support of Crown Prince Edward, they really didn’t dare to do anything.

Now, Louis wanted to make use of this name?

What a joke.

"I think you don’t understand, Sir Louis. When did the Student Council start to meddle and ask questions to other students for no reasons? There’s no rule that stated students are not allowed to leave the Capital Academy as long as they have the permission," Aurora said slowly, her tone was icy cold.

Louis was stunned.

He gritted his teeth and his brain turned once more, trying to find another reason to ask questions to Aurora.

She was right.

The student council had never done such a work before because there was truly no need for them to do it.

Now that he had started to do this work...

Other students wouldn’t believe it.

Louis took a deep breath. "I saw you come out and see a man. Are you...?"

Aurora raised her hand to stop Louis from speaking nonsense. She didn’t have that much patience anymore after being repeatedly provoked by these annoying people. If not because her plan required her to wait until their graduation party, she would have long kicked them all.

"Do you not recognize Sand Kingdom’s Prime Minister, Louis?" Aurora chuckled. "Right, I forgot you have never truly participated in the kingdom’s matter and naturally never saw them. It’s almost time for the next negotiation, so Prime Minister Jake come to inquire if he could know more about what I have prepared for the next negotiation."

"Ah..." Louis’s expression turned dark.

He could see the contempt in Aurora’s eyes when she looked in his direction.

There was no need for Aurora to lie about it.

They could find out as soon as they made the inquiry.

Louis clasped his fingers to form a fist.

He felt that the lack of knowledge of Aurora’s activity made him helpless. She could do whatever she wanted and others could only follow in her footsteps. There was nothing that they could do.

"Why do you have a private meeting with him, you..."

"It’s a public meeting and the people in the cafe can hear our conversation clearly if they’re close enough," Aurora replied.

Her way of interacting with Prime Minister Jake was not a secret. Those who attended the previous negotiations knew that the two of them often clashed against each other.

"If you’re so free to find out about my meeting, how about if you think about how to help with the next negotiation? The situation at the borders are quite tense, Sir Louis. I’m sure Sir Leon had known about it," Aurora said and then walked away, ignoring the stunned expression on Louis’s face.

There were other students nearby and Leon was also there. He had only finished his training and still sweaty looking with his sword beside him.

Louis was silent for a while and glanced at Leon. "Is it true?"

"Yes." Leon nodded. "My father said that the border is not very peaceful lately."

Duke Sun’s territory was right beside the Sand Kingdom, so if there was any conflict or anything, they would be the first to bear the brunt. Duke Sun mentioned this matter in his letter to him some time ago before Duke Sun come to meet him personally.

Leon knew about this, but he was also helpless.

Because he knew very well that there was nothing he could do about it.

His brother would be the one who face it.

"I see..." Louis took a deep breath and also turned around. He knew that there was no point for him to stay here and be the spectacle anymore.

However, there were still some students who were whispering around.

Leon saw this and shook his head.

He also left.
