Chapter 139 – Biggest Weakness (1/2)

Caesar didn’t speak, an unspoken acknowledgement.

Actually, if he just tried to explain a bit, even the worst laughable excuses would make Rosie feel a bit better, rather than the despair silence brought.

“I-I know! Caesar, you believe that I’m weaker so I’ll drag you down! Am I right?”

Caesar frowned, but remained silent.

Thus, he lost his last chance of redeeming himself.

“Hmph, I should’ve known! Caesar, you actually look down on me all this time, right?”

Finally, Rosie who was always passive in front of Caesar snapped.

“I know you’re a genius, and no matter how hard I work, you’ll leave me further and further behind… but I always naively thought that even if I can’t catch up toyou, you’ll be able to see my efforts!” Rosie lowered her head, her trembling words made one heartbroken.

It was like she took this opportunity to vent all her pent up frustration and discontent.

“You’re a prince, I’m a commoner, you’re a genius, I’m a normal person… so you think that I’m not even worthy of being your teammate, am I right?”

“Caesar did you know? In order to participate fair and square in the intramural selection competition, I spent all my time to meditate and train… I tried my hardest! But I couldn‘t do it, I cant become as strong as you… so I could only use other ways to approach you, is that also my wrong?”

“That’s right, by comparison, you must like princess Shen DaiYing a lot more, right… she’s so gentle, so beautiful, so strong, she instakilled me with one swing of the sword, all my efforts must have seemed so foolish… heh.”

Rosie was worked up and shaking all over, yet Caesar still was silent, letting Rosie say whatever she wanted.

“Um… sister Rosie, please don’t say those kinds of things.” Shen DaiYing awkwardly smiled, and ran over to be the peacemaker, “Caesar didn‘t mean anything bad, he just…”

“Just what! You vixen!” Rosie didn’t appreciate it, and swiped her hand away, releasing all her anger on her, “Shen DaiYing, don‘t get cocky, you’re stil not married to Caesar! You don’t have to keep up your pretenses, you’re still not his wife yet!”

“Ah? I…” Shen DaiYing stopped and slightly opened her eyes, revealing the awkwardness.

“Remember this, you definitely won’t become his wife! I, Rosie, definitely won‘t hand Caesar over to you! I swear!”

“Eh? Sister Rosie, that…”

“Hmph, just you wait!”

Leaving that line behind, Rosie stormed out of the room, leaving everyone dumbfounded in the room, no one speaking.

The first person to break the silence, was of course Lin Xiao.

“Hey, her eyes looked pretty red earlier… was she crying?” Lin Xiao quietly asked his maid.

“Cry? No, she didn’t cry.”

“Then what was it?” Lin Xiao blinked, rejoicing that Elena finally spoke more than four words to him, so he continued to ask.

“Humans will shed tears when they’re are hurt, but, if they endure it and don’t blink, and take a deep breath, the tears will go back.” Elena rationally analyzed.

“Uh… isn’t that just crying, whats the difference?”
