"He's not inconvenienced, he's afraid. He can't bear the consequences of personally killing Mr. Jiang, so he can only use various means against him but doesn't dare to truly confront him. Perhaps he dared before, but after the Ge'er Family's heir competition, he absolutely doesn't dare anymore!"
Pu Losi heard Si Liya's words and patiently explained.
Si Liya looked at Pu Losi in confusion: "Why isn't Uncle Si Mo'er daring? Isn't Jiang Chen just a civilian with a bit of business influence?"
"Si Liya, it's true Mr. Jiang doesn't have a title, but many untitled people are not to be underestimated by us. Not everyone with capability holds a title."
Pu Losi gently explained: "You've always been in the Royal Family and don't understand the outside world. When you have a chance to go out and see, you'll find that titles are significant to those who value them, but those who don't will find them indifferent. Mr. Jiang, he's someone who doesn't need to care about titles."
"This..."
Si Liya felt somewhat adrift. Born and raised in the Royal Family, surrounded by people with titles or those striving for them, she'd never encountered someone who didn't care about titles.
Thus, she couldn't quite grasp how someone without a title could be stronger than those with titles.
This is a misconception caused by her environment, leaving Si Liya momentarily unable to react.
"Also, Si Liya, to some people, showing murderous intent means fighting to the death. Never show murderous intent towards Mr. Jiang again, or have a killing intent, alright?" Pu Losi cautioned uneasily.
He knew Jiang Chen was ruthless, and if Si Liya ever harbored murderous intent towards Jiang Chen, he wouldn't care that she's a princess of Y Country; he has the capability to disregard it!
"Never mind, you might not understand for now; let's deal with the present issue. Let's go apologize to Mr. Jiang!"
Seeing Si Liya's bewildered expression, Pu Losi shook his head and led her out of the villa.
Si Liya followed behind, befuddled, her eyes filled with doubt.
…
After leaving the attic, Jiang Chen headed towards the Central Cathedral.
He bid farewell to the Pope, and after Mi Jiaro arrived, they walked towards the Holy Court's gate, with Fa Rang personally seeing them off.
"Mr. Jiang." As the three were about to leave the Holy Court, a call rang out.
The three turned to see Pu Losi and Si Liya catching up.
"Mr. Jiang, I sincerely apologize; Si Liya was deceived by villains and targeted you, please forgive us!"
Pu Losi approached the trio and directly performed a knight's bow. Amongst nobles, a knight's bow apology is a very formal apology.
Jiang Chen was slightly taken aback and turned to look at Si Liya.
Si Liya was somewhat unwilling but still softly said, "Sorry, I... I was being willful!"
"Princess syndrome?" Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow and looked at Pu Losi.
Pu Losi was a bit surprised; if he hadn't been to the Flame Dragon, he might not have understood Jiang Chen's comment, and sheepishly smiled: "Si Liya is indeed a bit spoiled, but this time it was indeed because she was deceived by someone, it was Si Mo'er."
Jiang Chen was enlightened; no need for much explanation, the name Si Mo'er explained it all.
"What princess syndrome? Is it a disease our princesses specifically get?" Si Liya frowned at Jiang Chen: "Or are you insulting me?"
Jiang Chen was momentarily stunned, amusedly glanced at Si Liya, then turned to Mi Jiaro: "She actually resembles you in some ways."
"Huh? Mr. Jiang, I'm not as rude as she is!" Mi Jiaro was slightly startled, earnestly explained.
Jiang Chen chuckled, reached out and patted Mi Jiaro's shoulder: "Didn't say you were rude."
Fa Rang chuckled and said: "Saint Heir, you really need to follow Mr. Jiang to experience more. If you continue to be naive, you might be exploited like Si Liya the princess."
"No worries! I believe in Mr. Jiang."
Mi Jiaro laughed, confidently glancing at Jiang Chen.
In Mi Jiaro's heart, the Pope is his everything; though he is the Holy Court's Saint Heir, the court's doctrines aren't as important to him as the Pope.
The Pope educated him from a young age, emphasizing humanity without instilling excessive divine supremacy ideas. Though he didn't fully understand everything the Pope mentioned earlier, he comprehended that Ye Hehua intends to harm the Pope, which has planted seeds of resentment towards Ye Hehua in him.
Jiang Chen saved the Pope's life, which Mi Jiaro sees as a monumental favor, making him trust Jiang Chen immensely.
"Indeed, that's right; once outside, just listen to Mr. Jiang!" Fa Rang smiled.
Pu Losi was ignored, but he harbored no resentment; Fa Rang and Mi Jiaro's status was beyond his reproach, and Jiang Chen was increasingly incomprehensible to him.
Initially, he merely thought Jiang Chen was the owner of three major conglomerates and four mercenary corps, which was already a formidable force. Additionally, he socialized with Flame Dragon Group, Holy Court, and Chaide Family individuals, further convincing Pu Losi of Jiang Chen's complexity.
Now, Fa Rang and Mi Jiaro's attitudes towards Jiang Chen made Pu Losi astounded and extremely grateful for his initial choice.
Originally, at the Ge'er Family's heir competition, Pu Losi thought he was offering support during hardship, but later realized he was merely enhancing what was already impressive.
At this moment, seeing Fa Rang and Mi Jiaro's attitude towards Jiang Chen, he instantly felt that his actions then were unnecessary, but such actions allowed him to associate with Jiang Chen, making him deeply emotional!
Si Liya felt slightly dissatisfied about being sidelined, but learned from her mistakes and didn't express it, though her gaze towards Jiang Chen still harbored traces of animosity.
Upon another glance at Si Liya, Jiang Chen noticed the palm imprint on her face, momentarily dazed, then looked at Pu Losi, and his anger faded somewhat.
"Mr. Jiang, how about visiting Dun Lun? It's my mother's birthday feast, and Si Mo'er will be attending," Pu Losi hinted.
Jiang Chen blinked, his thoughts turned, then gently nodded: "Alright, let's go take a look."
Regarding Si Mo'er, although Jiang Chen's current power no longer necessitates fearing him, he doesn't want a life-and-death confrontation, given Si Mo'er's special status.
Si Mo'er is not only a Duke of the Royal Family, but he is also one of the leaders of the two major factions within the Y Country's Royal Family.
This status is highly sensitive.
