Chapter 498 – A Small Romance

That guy doesn’t know about something that even kids know about?

Everyone was stupefied when they heard his answer, only Bacon smugly smiled like he was victorious.

“You don’t know, right? No matter, let me tell you!” Bacon wasn’t in a rush to arrest him as he secretly told someone to call the guards as he told Lin Xiao the legendary story.

“That badge symbolizes supreme honor, only heroes are worthy of it!”

Bacon gave an impassioned presentation while Lin Xiao listened in a daze as he pulled out the badge and looked at the lifelike dragon. Even Elena and ShenDai Ying were shocked as they walked next to Lin Xiao and stared at that badge.

They just realized what a big decision Claire made to fight with them, and Lin Xiao had greater respect for her. Lin Xiao already knew the badge wasn’t ordinary, but he didn’t know exactly how much it meant.

“Tomboy, this wasn’t what you said… so you purposely tricked me!”

If he knew how much it was worth, how could he have accepted it? Claire realized it and purposely pretended that it was to help him and didn’t let him reject it.

Even if Claire didn’t say it, Lin Xiao would eventually find out its true worth, and at that time, he would naturally understand her feelings without any extra worries.

“That’s what you were probably thinking, right? Sigh, really…”

Lin Xiao might have felt helpless after realizing he fell into Claire’s trap, but he was moved.

A woman who gives you treasure worth the price of a castle without saying anything and just silently supported you waiting until you realize her feelings and then waiting for your return.

That feeling wasn’t too bad.

While Lin Xiao was secretly savoring that small romance, he didn’t realize that the situation around him has completely changed!

“Guards, surround that liar, and don’t let him get away!”

Along with Bacon’s shout, a group of guards holding swords charged into the room. They shooed the surrounding bystander to the door and surrounded the people in the center!

When Lin Xiao saw that, he instantly understood…

Claire probably never expected that her small romance would have brought him so much trouble.

He suddenly recalled when he and Claire first met and how similar it was to this current situation. Who would have thought that Claire who looked down on him so much would eventually reconcile with him and now would even rack her brains to chase after him and gave him a priceless treasure just to create that small romance?

Fate is just that mysterious…

As his gaze swept over the guards and Bacon, he didn’t feel any danger, but just found it funny.

The same situation was repeating itself, this time it wasn’t the brave and stubborn leopard queen, but a perverted Baron that lacks discipline.

“Deputy manager Gerrard, make the order, get the guards to arrest him!”

As long as he caught him, then he could take in his beautiful companions!

“Deputy manager, what should we do?” When the guard captain heard Bacon urging, he quickly understood the situation and also thought that the kid was most likely a liar and was willing to arrest him. But he didn’t want to do anything without Gerrard’s order.

“Hm… Baron Bacon, why don’t we wait until Deborah…”

“Gerrard! Are you still trying to shift responsibilities?”

If Bacon waited for Deborah, then he wouldn’t have a chance to snatch those beauties! So he had to be one step ahead and arrest that brat first then get those women on his bed, then when Deborah comes back she couldn’t do anything!

But Gerrard was still hesitating and shook his head, “No! Baron Bacon, I just think…”

“Just what? What that kid is holding isn’t made of luminous gold, and he hasn’t even heard of the legends, so he’s clearly a liar!”

“I…”

“Hesitating because you’re afraid of taking responsibility even with the overwhelming evidence… do you not want to be the deputy manager anymore!?”

Gerrard knew that Bacon was serious this time and if he delayed it any longer, his position may be in serious jeopardy, so he could only helplessly wave his hands and order the guards to take action!

“Hmph… okay, go!”

Bacon shouted and directed the guards to move!

At the same time, a girl called out!

“W-wait!”
