In the Name of Empress-Chapter 463 - 313: Friendship Rises with the Chimes (Part 3)
Roland knew this kind of enjoyment was rare, somewhat reluctant to sit up, he laughed at himself, "The dream is so real that Miss Liberator provided me with a knee pillow service."
"Not just a knee pillow, but also a massage."
Alina smiled slightly, rubbed her knees, and sat on the sofa beside him. ๐๐๐๐๐ฌ๐๐๐ท๐๐ฟ๐๐ก.๐๐ธ๐
Rolandโs performance was excellent just now, but she possessed keen eyes that, although unfamiliar with the Insight Skill, were equally outstanding in Insight Ability.
Roland was pretending.
Perhaps he truly didnโt recognize it at first, but upon waking, he certainly knew it wasnโt a dream.
He just used this explanation so neither side would feel too awkward.
Alina picked up the teacup, took a sip; the tea was already cold, giving a refreshing feeling.
"Comfortable?"
"Of course, itโs an unparalleled enjoyment, not only allowing me to completely relax but for a brief moment, even forget about the direction of home."
Perhaps influenced by the romantic atmosphere of the Jin Yuan Kingdom, Rolandโs words became a bit slick.
Alina just smiled.
Such a genuine compliment.
Losing the desire for the Empressโs Palace, but only for a moment.
This kind of "insincere" praise, if used between lovers in a passionate romance, would mostly make the girl angrily stand up and leave.
Luckily, they werenโt.
They were just friends, which made it a very appropriate compliment.
Alina didnโt continue the topic but decided to check on Rolandโs sleeping quarters every night, supervising and urging the maids to provide quality service, and personally demonstrating when maid service wasnโt excellent.
Of course, this was just mutual concern among friends.
Just enjoying a knee pillow, without doing anything outrageous, this was pure friendship.
Perhaps noticing the unsettling atmosphere in the room, or maybe thinking the Magic Lamp was on anyway, best not to waste it, Alina picked up the Civil Code placed beside her, shaking it in her hand.
"Iโve read Mr. Desmondsโ revised version, I think..."
About to give an opinion, Alina suddenly remembered this was Rolandโs persistent work, resolutely held her tongue.
"Roland, what do you think of Desmondsโ proposals?"
"Itโs like the foot wraps a female knight removes after chasing enemies for three days."
"What do you mean?"
"Smelly and long." Roland explained with a laugh.
Alina bit her lip, her voice slightly chilly, "Iโm asking why you emphasized a female knight, donโt male knights have smelly foot wraps?"
"Thatโs something youโll need to ask why people of old created such quips, maybe ancient Literary Scholars favored the toes of female knights."
Perhaps finding this topic a bit ambiguous, Alina instinctively tucked her feet back under her skirt, cleared her throat to steer the conversation back on track.
"So, your opinion?"
"My opinion is..."
Itโs not as good as Emperor Napoleonโs Civil Code.
Roland silently thought to himself but didnโt rush to counter, instead smiled and asked, "You changed your surname to Bonaparte, is it to honor that Star Spirit Emperor Bonaparte?"
"Yes."
"How do you find his countryโs legal system construction?"
"Based on historical records, the Star Spirit clan lived happily then, it can be deduced the laws were excellent at that time, but unfortunately those codes didnโt survive." Alinaโs tone was full of regret.
"There are."
Roland took out another worldโs Emperor Bonaparteโs Civil Code and placed it on the table.
"This is the Star Spirit Emperorโs Civil Code, also the most suitable code for our country."
He lied, but didnโt completely.
Because it really came from Emperor Bonaparte, and really was suitable.
Itโs just from another worldโs Bonaparte.
