Chapter 5-6 (2/2)
There was no way to investigate the last two, but the Ravel in front of him was unconditionally rich and a talented leader, a winner in life that had both qualities
Shang Ke did not know that Ravel actually fulfilled all three
”It's late, so let's return I will eat with you” Ravel then pushed Shang Ke back to the sickroo them some food
Ravel ate whatever Shang Ke ate Even if it was just a bowl of plain rice congee, he would eat it without a single change in his facial expression This caused Shang Ke to rather admire him
Although these days his food had somewhat improved, in actuality his body eak to the extreme He was simply unable to take in too much nutrition Therefore, nothinner day by day
Doctor Banny had said previously that every day he lived wassince lost their will to continue living on He knew that the reason why Cage continued to persevere was that he wanted to witness the establishment of the new empire with his own eyes
For the first time, Ravel wavered He didn't want to announce the news, since he was afraid that once Cage's dream was fulfilled, then he would die without hesitation
Ravel couldn't bear to part with hio…
That night, Ravel returned to his mansion
Kahn stepped forward to report, ”This subordinate has placed Gabriel under house arrest in the guest room How do you plan to deal with him, General?”
Ravel's face quickly chilled and he walked to the guest room
”Let me out! I am General Utrecht's son, you can't do this to uest room
The guard was indifferent to his shouts When he saw Ravel and Kahn arriving, he i the door
When Gabriel saw Ravel walk in, his temper was pacified and he asked, ”Sire, you're finally back May I ask why you placed me under house arrest?”
Ravel did not reply, and hefrom the hospital
When Gabriel saw the recording, his expression changed and he gritted his teeth ”My actions were a little ie had done to me”
”I don't need to knohat he had done to you previously,” Ravel coldly and detachedly spoke, ”I only know that you insulted and injured Cage while he is ie to treat a hero who has just experienced torture like that?”
”Hero?” Gabriel said disdainfully ”If he had obediently stayed on Taima Planet, then none of this would have happened Without him, you still would have been able to succeed It's his own fault that he's now in such a condition Why is he being treated as a hero by others?”
”Why?” Ravel gestured to Kahn and said, ”You tell him”
Kahn coldly looked at Gabriel and started to explain, ”Perhaps Young Master Cage's initial appearance and arrest were both blunders, but his perforh to be called as a hero He paid the price for his own thened our faith in the cause Like you said, we most likely could have succeeded, even without him However, his appearance shi+fted the eneave usour casualties
He paused before continuing, ”Young Master Gabriel, if it were you, could you perform even better than him?”
”Why couldn't I?” Gabriel stuck out his chest, boasting, ”I was alwaysthan him, and more suitable for father's inheritance than him”
A thin layer of frost ee had been insulted by such a superficial man, he found it difficult to endure
Ravel coldly spoke, ”Kahn, I'll leave it to you Have him taste torture and see if he can truly perfore”
After speaking, he directly turned and left the room
”Sire Ravel, wait, I am General Utrecht's heir For you to treat the son of a hero like this, are you not afraid of the public's anger?”
Kahn revealed an expression of pity for hiuy didn't even know that, very soon, his position as heir wouldn't be assured In fact, ever since General Utrecht sacrificed his life, his faood as dead What Ravel had retained was their fae were to pass away, then ould inherit the family name would depend entirely on who Ravel wants
Gabriel was originally the best choice, but it was a pity that, by not being able to bear his anger for even a bit longer, he had courted disaster for himself
Kahn got a needle froe had been injected with a tenfold sensitizer, but I will give you ive you half of that, so I will only use a dosage of fivefold”
Gabriel looked at the needle in Kahn's hand, and a trace of fear flashed through his eyes
That night, a string of uest roo time
The next , Kahn arrived to report the situation
”He only persevered for two hours” He started up the video, showcasing how Gabriel had started to beg for forgiveness at the torture's six- down his face He cut a very sorry figure, but this kind of reaction wasn't strange After all, five-tie person could bear Kahn had not even done it seriously, otherwise, Gabriel wouldn't have even lasted an hour
”Just how did Cage do it?” With Gabriel as a foil, Kahn expressed his extree's ability to survive ten-times the torture That was not just physical torment, but it was a test of his will
Ravel was entirely uninterested towards the torment Gabriel underwent He turned his head to Kahn and told hiht at the hospital today”
Kahn stared blankly for a , ”To the country”
”I know,” Ravel said dispiritedly, ”Bring the ceremonial robe to the hospital early, and I will leave the hospital in tio directly to the ceremony plaza”
”But your safety…”
”I believe in your ability to handle things” Ravel patted Kahn's shoulder as encourageht to the hospital
Kahn looked speechlessly at his departing figure As a leader, is it okay to be so willful?!
When Ravel arrived at the hospital, Shang Ke was diligently working to raise his ar table
Ravel iaze at the nurse on the side and asked, ”Why are you not helping?”
The nurse hurriedly answered, ”Young Master Cage wanted to try by himself”
Shang Ke nodded toward hiers still could not move, his arm could already move about somewhat
Successfully grasping the fruit, he gave Ravel a cheerful s it in front of him
”For me?” Ravel asked
Shang Ke nodded his head
Ravel took the fruit and showed no displeasure as he readily ate it bite-by-bite, very seriously
Noticing how Shang Ke was staring at him, he took a piece of pre-cut fruit fro Ke's mouth
Shang Ke opened his mouth and bit down
With the two people together, one person eating and one person feeding, the atmosphere was extremely harmonious
After Shang Ke finished his breakfast, he noticed that Ravel was showing no indication of leaving, and felt that it was a bit strange
”I will be staying today to accompany you” While he turned on the broadcast, he continued speaking, ”After breakfast, we'll watch two hours of progra lunch After lunch, I'll take you out for a walk around the garden, to view the flowers and butterflies and listen to music Two hours later, we'll stop for some tea and pastries, and then coe your o inspection”
Like he was handling official business, Ravel had arranged the day's entire schedule Shang Ke becaly dumbfounded as he listened
”If you have any objections, you can use your body language to get my attention at any ti for his response
Shang Ke couldn't help but smile Sometimes, this man was pretty cute
Ravel steadily stared at him, and within his icy blue eyes was only the other's smile
Shang Ke nodded towards hireement to his plans
It was only then that RavelKe in changing the channel After he chose an entertainan to watch it together
The prograh several ti to end, and his lips didn't even move a little
Shang Ke was truly suspicious that his facial nerves had problems
”What's wrong?” Ravel sensed Shang Ke's line of sight on him, and turned to ask him
Shang Ke shook his head, expressing that nothing rong
Ravel took a look at the time and told him, ”You should rest now”
Right after speaking, he got up to help Shang Ke lie down Seeing the other's bright and spirited eyes, he covered them with his hand and ordered, ”Sleep I ake you up in an hour”
Shang Ke thought, but he has zero interest in sleeping!
While lying on the bed, he exercised hislunch with Ravel After lunch, it was ti, and Ravel personally…picked flowers for hiiven hiht that he really liked flowers…
Anyway, throughout the day, Ravel actually coht, he even planned to spend the night at the hospital
As the new empire's leader, wasn't he a bit too free?!
However, so him to sleep” still felt pretty nice The ti soon A day in this world was one day less, and although the time was quite short, he hadn't come in vain for him to be able to know a friend like Ravel
Shang Ke looked at the other bed where Ravel was laying, and silently said to hiht, my friend
The next ht of a beautifully dressed and crowned Ravel The scene gave hiant party
Ravel told him, ”Today is the day that ill hold the cere of the new empire We worked hard for over ten years, and have finally entered a new era Cage, this is an honor for all of us I ask for you to wait and see”
Ravel's expression was grave, with an assertive aura, as if he had been born to be King
Shang Ke's heart sped up a bit at the sight, and a radiance like the rising sun unknowingly appeared in his eyes, causing Ravel's blood to boil
