“It’s not that I don’t want to stay by your side, Prince Matthew, but I have too many things to attend to!”
“As you know, I’ve founded a company. Without me, they won’t be able to manage it properly!”
“Furthermore, the equipment for developing medicines is all in my castle. I need to quickly develop the skin treatment medicine for you!”
Jiang Yi deliberately feigned a difficult situation.
Hearing this, Prince Matthew’s brow furrowed, clearly displeased.
“Prince Matthew, rest assured, although I won’t be by your side, I’m available at any time and will absolutely not delay your treatment!” Jiang Yi said.
“Alright, I’ll agree to this,” Prince Matthew conceded.
Jiang Yi said nothing more and turned to leave the hall.
Lord Baron Barre bid Prince Matthew farewell and followed him out.
Watching Jiang Yi’s retreating figure, Prince Matthew’s brow furrowed.
“Prince Matthew, Jiang Yi doesn’t seem to respect you at all. He dares to defy your orders. If such a person isn’t dealt with, what authority will you have left!” Prince Matthew’s personal physician said.
“Shut up!” Prince Matthew roared angrily.
The personal physician dared not speak further and quickly fell silent.
“My illness can only be cured by Jiang Yi. Even if he’s arrogant and overbearing in front of me, it doesn’t matter!”
“Don’t ever say such things again, or I’ll turn my back on you!” Prince Matthew stated.
“Yes!” The personal physician quickly replied.
“Also, continue to have people watch Jiang Yi. He’s too important to me. I need to know his every move, but make sure he doesn’t discover he’s being watched!” Prince Matthew instructed.
“Yes!” The personal physician nodded.
At this time, in the courtyard outside the hall.
Lord Baron Barre stopped Jiang Yi and said, “Thank you for helping me just now. Otherwise, I’m afraid I would never have had the chance to serve in the capital!”
“No need to thank me yet!”
“Prince Matthew is a man of his word, but he may not put in his full effort to help you serve in the capital. Let’s wait until you’ve successfully arrived in the capital before you thank me!” Jiang Yi said with a slight smile.
Hearing this, Lord Baron Barre’s brow furrowed. He knew Jiang Yi’s words were true; Prince Matthew might not put in his full effort!
“However, you don’t need to worry too much. I will help you find a way, but only if you cooperate with me. Otherwise, I can’t help you!”
“You should know well that I don’t do business at a loss. I need a clear answer from you now: are you cooperating with me or not?” Jiang Yi looked at Lord Baron Barre.
“Alright, I’ll cooperate with you!” Lord Baron Barre finally agreed, having tasted the benefits.
“You’ve made a very wise choice. By cooperating with me, you’ll gain even more benefits in the future!” Jiang Yi smiled.
Lord Baron Barre’s brow furrowed slightly. He always felt Jiang Yi’s actions were too risky and could cost him his life at any moment. Jiang Yi knew what Lord Baron Barre was thinking but didn’t voice it directly.
“Alright, I need to go back. Call me if anything comes up!” Jiang Yi said, then turned and got into his car.
Just as Jiang Yi was about to drive away, he noticed Natasha hiding in the car, unsure when she had gotten in. After Lord Baron Barre left the courtyard, Natasha finally spoke to Jiang Yi, pouring out her troubles.
“Teacher, I’ve finally met you! I was confined to my room by my father, and I finally found an opportunity to get out!”
“It’s best for you to stay at home obediently! Otherwise, your father won’t be at ease!” Jiang Yi said with a smile.
“My father worries too much. I’m safest with you, my teacher. You are so capable; you will surely protect my safety!” Natasha said.
Jiang Yi couldn’t help but laugh upon hearing this, amused by Natasha’s flattery.
“Teacher, I want to go to your castle with you. I can’t stand staying at home for even a moment!” Natasha said pitifully.
Seeing Natasha’s state, Jiang Yi felt a pang of sympathy. “Alright!”
“Thank you, Teacher!” Natasha was overjoyed when Jiang Yi agreed.
Jiang Yi smiled, then started the car and left the castle!
As soon as Jiang Yi drove away, Lord Baron Barre chased after him. Seeing Jiang Yi’s car drive off, his brow furrowed.
“My Lord, the young lady must have left with Mr. Jiang. Should I send people to find her?” the butler asked.
“No need!” Lord Baron Barre took a deep breath and said with a frown, “I know my daughter well. Once she leaves the castle, she won’t return no matter what. We can’t push her too hard!”
“Yes!” The butler replied.
Meanwhile, on the road back to the castle, Jiang Yi’s phone suddenly rang. Upon checking his phone, he saw it was Shen Lu calling! Jiang Yi stopped the car to answer. Shen Lu informed Jiang Yi that the company had just received another order. The order wasn’t large, only over fifty million, but the client was of an unusual background, and they couldn’t handle it themselves, asking Jiang Yi to visit the company. Jiang Yi hung up the phone and drove directly to Tianding Group. An hour later, Jiang Yi drove into the company’s courtyard. As soon as he reached the lobby, he met Shen Lu.
“What kind of order is it that requires me to confirm it in person?” Jiang Yi asked.
“It’s an order from the Royal Family of Eagle Country!” Shen Lu replied.
“An order from the Royal Family of Eagle Country?” Jiang Yi was taken aback.
“A very refined young man came to the company just now. He identified himself as royalty and requested our company to help produce some medicines.”
“This matter struck us as very strange, and we didn’t dare to make decisions on our own, so we had to call for you, the boss!” Shen Lu explained.
“Where is that person?” Jiang Yi asked.
“In the reception room. Dong Rui is currently receiving him!” Shen Lu said, then led Jiang Yi to the reception room.
When Jiang Yi arrived at the reception room and saw the person, he was speechless. This person was none other than Meenasha. Upon seeing Meenasha, Natasha’s face immediately showed a shy expression.
“Are you from the Royal Family of Eagle Country?”
“That’s right!” Meenasha nodded, then smiled at Natasha and said, “We really are destined to meet again!”
Hearing this, Natasha’s face flushed with shyness. Jiang Yi was exasperated. He had previously told Natasha that Meenasha was a woman, but Natasha hadn’t believed him and had developed feelings for her.
“Mr. Jiang, I would like to speak with you privately!” Meenasha’s gaze fell upon Jiang Yi.
