Chapter 2499 Is It a Good Thing to Be Strong?
Cornelia's sudden change made Xiao Ran feel a little uncomfortable, and he glanced at Cornelia with a weird expression, then backed away without a trace, sat back in his seat, and put it on the table The mask was put back on his face.
"Oh." Cornelia brushed her hair, hugged her hands in front of her stomach again, and had that condescending expression on her face again, looking at Xiao Ran as if she was a little contemptuous, with a feeling of contempt in her .
Xiao Ran glanced at Cornelia, ignoring this woman who seemed to be a little bit out of place, frowning slightly, he couldn't understand Cornelia's current changes, but this change felt a bit weird no matter how you looked at it.
Compared with the previous situation of Suzaku Suzaku, Cornelia's current behavior can be said to be abnormal. At the beginning, Suzaku Suzaku persisted under his GEASS ability to the extreme until he fainted before surrendering completely, but Afterwards, in terms of nature, Suzaku Suzaku didn't change much at all, except that he would naturally put himself in the position of a subject when facing him, and the GEASS ability he used now did not change a person at all. The possibility of personality is just to bury the loyalty to him in the spirit and consciousness of the other party. After being loyal to him, Xiao Ran, Sumu Suzaku's usual behavior is basically the same as when it was normal.
But Cornelia's situation at this time is completely different from Suzaku Suzaku's. Why did Cornelia behave like another person completely, and now the contempt shown at the right time, Xiao Ran can't help it. I saw some deliberate elements in it, and I also noticed a little panic in Cornelia's eyes, more like deliberately trying to maintain calmness and bravery in front of him, feeling a little... arrogant?
On the premise that Geass cannot change a person's personality, that is to say, Cornelia's current performance...is her true appearance? Proud? It is completely understandable to say that Cornelia has a bit of arrogance, but her current performance is not just as simple as arrogance.
The deliberate sneer and deliberate posture are like the appearance of a child who insists on pulling himself up to the same level as the opponent after being compared. This situation should indeed have something to do with Cornelia's own personality. In addition to her special status, her strong character and her status as a princess, it is estimated that she will not show true obedience in front of others, so she will behave in such a 'wrong' manner?
As for other reasons... It seems that GEASS gave her loyalty, desire for strength, reverence for the strong, and the weak who are completely crushed in all aspects, as well as her own original thinking, that is, weak men are not qualified to fight with Standing together, she doesn't need someone weaker than herself to protect her from being turned around. In addition, the strength that Li Xiao Ran showed in front of her also made her unable to raise any arrogance in front of Li Ran, and all her pride became worthless Speaking of which, she completely became an ordinary woman without any ability at all, which made Cornelia feel her own weakness and powerlessness for the first time. Various reasons were mixed together to produce some subtle changes.
But because of her own strength, she desires to express herself in front of Xiao Ran even more,
Hoping to get more attention and attention from that stalwart figure that suddenly appeared in his heart, it finally led to Cornelia's seemingly earth-shaking changes in front of Xiao Ran.
Xiao Ran thought about Cornelia's abnormal behavior and attitude for a while, and understood some of Cornelia's current changes without understanding the other person's heart, but in Xiao Ran's heart, Cornelia had such a change There is another key point in the reason.
Cornelia was the first princess of the empire before, representing the most typical flag and face of the Butaria royal family in the empire, and she was under tremendous pressure all the time, but now she was given GEASS, resulting in He left a seed and a shadow in Cornelia's heart, and it was a very powerful figure, which instantly became Cornelia's only support in her heart, and the pressure she endured also faded away. Facing a powerful man who is enough to rely on, and a man who has left a shadow in her heart, such a behavior can be explained. In addition, Sumu Suzaku fainted at the beginning, which can be said to be a point, and Ke Nelia didn't have the willpower of Suzaku Suzaku, so she was completely overwhelmed by Xiao Ran, but this was completely different from what Xiao Ran thought before, as if something strange was about to happen.
When Xiao Ran was pondering, Cornelia sat beside Xiao Ran with a sneering expression, and changed from sitting in opposition to sitting in a row, but no matter whether it was a sneer or a cold stare, it was There is no way to completely conceal the panic and fear in her heart, let alone the dependence and trust in Xiao Ran revealed in her eyes.
Seeing that Xiao Ran hadn't moved for a long time, Cornelia suddenly sneered and said, "Why, facing the woman who is already under your control, but choose to retreat and put on a mask and keep silent, don't tell me I have something worthy of your fear , or is it that you don't want to say anything more to me, such as how are you going to treat me next? Are you so sure that I have been controlled by you?"
Thinking about it, Xiao Ran raised his head, turned to look at Cornelia, and said in a deep voice, "To be precise, it's not about controlling, but about planting a shadow in your spirit and soul, a seed of loyalty to me." , You should know better than me whether or not my ability has been successfully applied to you, and you should understand that you can no longer do anything against me."
"Also, there is something wrong with your current situation. I don't think you can communicate with me soberly under such a strange situation. You'd better calm down."
After Xiao Ran's voice fell, Cornelia didn't seem to listen at all. She kept that expression, but stretched out her hand to pinch Xiao Ran's mask and slowly took it off, then stared at Xiao Ran's pair of wonderful colors Eyes, just staring at him like that, as if his soul was sucked away by those eyes.
Xiao Ran did not stop Cornelia from moving, but frowned slightly after the mask was taken off. Although the GEASS ability had indeed been given to Cornelia, it could not be changed. Cornelia's true character, and this kind of self that doesn't care about other people's direct actions, is also the true embodiment of Cornelia's character, even if the seeds of loyalty have been planted in her heart, but as a princess, and the royal family Among the most authoritative people in the military, pride and aloofness have been imprinted in her bones. Even if you admit that you will gain my loyalty, I still have the capital to be proud in front of you, although that capital may be insignificant. But what can I do if I have you, I am so self-willed.
"Is it these eyes, these eyes full of magic power, you used these eyes to leave your shadow in my heart, right, these are really a pair of scary but fascinating eyes Eyes, how could human beings have such eyes, a pair of eyes that glow."
Cornelia murmured softly, a little bit of confusion appeared on her face, fascinated and dazed, and the other free hand was slowly raised and placed on Xiao Ran's face, placed next to her eyes gently Touched lightly, and gradually became intoxicated.
Seeing Cornelia showing such an expression, Xiao Ran didn't feel excited or impatient, or any impulse arose in his heart. On the contrary, there was a thud in his heart, and an idea suddenly popped up in his heart. : "Could it be that the GEASS ability I got has a side effect that I haven't researched!? Her performance is too deep to extricate herself? Is the direction of loyalty a bit off!?"
Suddenly, Cornelia took her hand from Xiao Ran's face, and with a little strength in the other hand, she casually threw the mask towards Xiao Ran, then stood up directly from the chair, turned her face to recover Reaching the original calm and stern appearance, he said in an indifferent voice: "Okay, the purpose of inviting you over was originally to coerce you into doing things for me. Now that my plan has been exposed by you, this meal is specially for you." There is no point in continuing the preparation of the dinner. I am also very tired. It is time for you to leave. Today is like this. If I have time, I will come to you again and listen to you and you. Lu Xiu's special plan."
Xiao Ran easily caught the mask Cornelia threw at him, stood up with a slight upturn of his mouth, slowly moved his head close to Cornelia's ear and said softly: "Playing hard to get doesn't make any sense to me, normal It's hard for a real man to stand in front of a beauty like you, but now your pretentious posture can make ordinary men feel timid. I'm normal, but I'm not ordinary either. It's of no use at all."
Xiao Ran doesn't think he is a hypocritical person, but at least he is a person with principles. Although he is the main reason why Cornelia became like this in front of him, there are various reasons that make Cornelia feel that way. His attitude suddenly became very strange, but it's not like Xiao Ran couldn't see that Cornelia's current behavior is clearly her most authentic side, even Geass did bring Cornelia a lot of influence .
As for the current Cornelia, she almost euphemistically expressed the attitude of giving it to her door and asking for it. How could Xiao Ran fail to see this, but Xiao Ran is more aware that Cornelia's mental state is not the same now. Abnormal, for some reason, she became too relaxed, too unrestrained, and released her emotions too much. She was completely under an inexplicably affected release, and her mental fluctuations were so great that she was not completely under the control of reason.
Not everyone would accept Xiao Ran who came to his door, but at least Cornelia could also fall into Xiao Ran's eyes, but Xiao Ran didn't have such an idea at all, let alone take advantage of others' danger, so in After saying this, Xiao Ran was really ready to turn around and leave, playing hard to get? He doesn't like that.
But in the end, Xiao Ran still couldn't go out. Just when Xiao Ran was about to leave, Cornelia, who was in a very bad state of mind, took the initiative to hook Xiao Ran's neck from behind with one hand, as if choking his throat. Tenderness and ambiguity, but with another tone and method, with a sneer and provocation, he took the initiative to keep the guy who was going to leave.
"Hmph, you can't do it right. I recognize your strength on the battlefield, and you are a truly powerful man worth relying on, but now in front of me, it's not so certain. You said that you have gained my loyalty and let me Surrender, but I think you should be the one who should surrender, maybe you can make me truly surrender in another place? Or maybe I make you surrender. "
What happened later was very natural and logical. Xiao Ran did not leave Cornelia's residence that night, and it took him some time to make Cornelia completely surrender from body to soul, but this feeling really made Xiao Ran I feel a little weird, a strong woman really has some indescribable feelings.
In the morning, Cornelia opened her eyes, only to feel that her body was extremely sore and aching, and it was not only her body that hurt, but her head was also in pain, like the pain of a hangover Looking at the man with closed eyes beside her, Cornelia also felt at a loss for her crazy and uncontrollable actions before, and everything she experienced seemed to be controlled by another person , After that moment of venting and satisfaction, now when I wake up, there is nothing but emptiness and confusion, but I don’t have any regrets about it. She is such a strong woman and she did it on her own initiative. Her character does not allow herself to regret it Emotions.
After being dazed for a while, Cornelia came to her senses again, and looked at Xiao Ran's face with one arm around her completely fitting together with extremely complicated eyes, and at this moment, Cornelia felt Xiao Ran even more. It's terrifying, knowing that Xiao Ran and Lu Luxiu are planning a coup d'état against Butaria, and the target is her father. As a member of the empire, he should obviously take some proper actions, such as taking his own body from under the pillow. She took out the weapon and pointed it at Xiao Ran, but she couldn't think of any such thoughts in her heart at all, she just wanted to obey, to rely on, and after the previous night, when her mind fluctuated the most, it happened again. After doing such a thing, it also made her just want to hug this person who is close to her body, and feel this tenderness without thinking about anything.
"How did this happen... How did all this happen... He really couldn't think of any unfavorable thoughts about him, those eyes, that kind of power, it's really terrifying..."
Slowly closing her eyes, Cornelia clearly told herself that she should resist, but her body complied with the truest thoughts in her heart. She reached out to hug Xiao Ran closer, and actively buried her head in Xiao Ran's chest. Don't care, don't care about anything.
