Chapter 1 [The Palace of the Fallen Prince] (New Book Seeking Recommendation Votes!)


Chapter 1: The Palace of the Fallen Prince Nine o'clock in the morning.

The door of the Dingtone shop is pushed open and the doorbell rings.

"Welcome" Polite greetings, Chen Xiao, who was wearing a fast-food restaurant uniform behind the counter, hurriedly bowed and smiled professionally at the people who came in.

His face was fair, his facial features were handsome, but there was a faint paleness in his face, which made him look a little weaker.

But the man who came in took off his hat, but showed a pretty face, with pink cheeks and a shallow pear socket on each cheek.

This girl's face is just delicate, not a big beauty, but this smile and cute little dimples add a bit of cuteness to her.

Chen Xiao saw the person clearly, then stood up straight and sighed: "You are late again, aren't you afraid that the manager will deduct your salary?"

The girl stuck out her tongue and made a cute grimace: "I'm not afraid, I know you'll definitely help me make excuses" Although she said she wasn't afraid, she subconsciously looked at the back of the store carefully.

"The manager isn't there, and when he asked about you just now, I told her you were going to deliver food."

Chen Xiao looked at the clock hanging on the wall, and then took out a takeaway order from his pocket: "No, show this thing to the manager in a while, don't betray me." ” "Thanks, I'll introduce you to the beautiful woman another day."

The girl took it with a grin, ran to the back of the "staff room" to change into work clothes, and stood behind the counter with Chen Xiao.

She wore a refreshing ponytail and a face that had not been polluted by cosmetics, revealing the unique youthful atmosphere of a girl of her age.

Chen Xiao didn't talk much to her, but put on her work plot gloves, carefully cut the bread, and began to make sandwiches.

The girl looked at Chen Xiao and didn't speak, her eyes were slightly disappointed, she thought for a while, and took the initiative to say: "Hey, it's a weekend today, business is not good, maybe I can finish work early."

I heard that the store on West Street is on sale today, and we'll go to see it together after we finish work, okay, didn't you talk about wanting to buy a 4. ” Chen Xiao listened, thought for a moment, and shook his head calmly: "No, I still have work to do." ” "Yi, you have another part-time job," the cute girl's eyes widened.

"Well, tutor."

Chen Xiao didn't seem to want to say more, just replied simply, and lowered his head and continued to do things.

This weekend, the school company is on vacation, and the morning breakfast sales of the fast food restaurant are naturally affected, but by half past nine, the business of the store has improved.

More than eighty percent of the guests are little girls, these girls range from twelve to twenty-two years old, and it seems that most of them are students, who can sleep at home on weekends, but they come here so early to have breakfast.

Seeing this scene, the lovely female clerk was no longer surprised, and sighed These girls are all coming for Chen Xiao.

Since Chen Xiao came to this small fast food restaurant to do odd jobs, it seems that the female students around him know that there is a handsome young male clerk here.

Chen Xiao is slender, tall, with delicate and delicate facial features, he doesn't like to talk, but when he smiles, he just has the "lethality" to make little girls scream, and his appearance is handsome and better than those K-pop beautiful men on TV, and he is a student in a prestigious school, with a refined temperament.

It is the "prince palace" type of boy that is the favorite of those ignorant little girls nowadays.

Since he came to work here, the proportion of young women among the customers in the store has increased exponentially, whether it is breakfast, lunch or dinner, there are always little girls sitting in the store to come to see Chen Xiao.

Those girls bought food one by one but didn't take it away, a cup of Coke and a sandwich in their hands could sit in the store for more than half an hour, and even more, they simply supported their chin and elbows on the table, and their eyes stared at Chen Xiao who was busy behind the counter like a tracker.

Hmph, a bunch of I don't know why, the more the cute female clerk looked at these female guests today, the more unhappy she became, and when she saw two female guests who were no more than fourteen or fifteen years old, she almost stared at Chen Xiao and drooled, and couldn't help but feel angry in her heart.

What's even more hateful is that with such a long counter, there are obviously two clerks, myself and Chen Xiao, but those little girls would rather line up and wait in front of Chen Xiao's sales counter The more I thought about it, the more angry I became The female clerk puffed out her cheeks and looked at the pair of customers who were queuing up in front of her: a man and a woman, judging from their intimate appearance, they were clearly a couple.

The female clerk rolled her eyes and smiled sweetly deliberately: "May I ask the two brothers and sisters what they want to eat?"

“” Chen Xiao quickly made the hamburger and sandwich in his hand, and then brought up a cup of soda.

His movements are fast and not chaotic, his fingers are soft and flexible, and his face has always been calm as water, even if there are many customers standing in front of the counter, his expression is so faint Of course, in the eyes of those little girls, this is the expression of "cool".

Chen Xiao could vaguely feel that the girl sitting in the store was secretly looking at herself while biting the straw, and some girls looked at her, talking about something.

Chen Xiao is used to this.

He knew what the girls were talking about.

In fact, Chen Xiao's sense of hearing has been very sensitive since she was a child, and in her busy time, she could also hear the two girls sitting closest to the counter talking about whispered words such as "the palace of the prince in distress".

The palace of the fallen prince Chen Xiao also smiled bitterly in his heart.

Girls in this world generally like gossip.

But Chen Xiao doesn't care, he's used to being talked about, especially after what happened two years ago.

Chen Xiao is eighteen years old this year, because his mother's surname is Xiao, so when his parents named him, he should have been called Chen Xiao.

But later, it is said that a fortune teller said that he was short of water in the five elements, so he changed the word "Xiao" to the chic "Xiao".

Speaking of which, an eighteen-year-old boy like him rarely has such a silent and steady temperament.

Since he was a child, his father and mother have rarely been by Chen Xiao's side.

It seems that his parents are engaged in some kind of scientific research work, and it is hard to imagine how his father, who has a serious and cold face all the year round, like Frankenstein in the comics, chased down his beautiful mother.

Because of their work, Chen Xiao's parents have been traveling back and forth between local and foreign countries all year round, especially when Chen Xiao was three years old, his parents entered a research institute in North America as the main R&D personnel for an unknown project.

In the end, he was probably super capable, and he simply became a shareholder of the scientific research institution and became a partner.

From a part-time worker to a boss, the two husbands and wives are even more expensive than gold, where do the two workaholics have time to take care of the children So Chen Xiao went to boarding school from childhood to adulthood, and in order to keep the "Chinese tradition" for his children, his parents left him in China and did not take him to North America, and hired an aunt to take care of his daily life.

So Chen Xiao has been accustomed to living independently since he was a child, and when he was nine years old, he would fry rice and make tomato and egg soup by himself.

The parents seem to be very rich, and the scientific research institution in North America seems to be very generous, so Chen Xiao has not been short of money to spend since he was a child.

It's just two workaholic parents, but they haven't seen each other all year long.

After careful calculation, from the age of four, more than 360 days a year, I can see my parents less than four times.

This situation continued until Chen Xiao was sixteen years old.

He was going to school that day, but he saw the aunt who took care of him at home coming to school with red and swollen eyes and taking him back.

Then he got the bad news: the research institute where his parents worked, there was a huge scientific research accident while engaged in a certain scientific research, and both parents died in the accident and died in the laboratory.

Afterwards, after the inspection, it was identified as an accident, and the scientific research institution was also disintegrated because of the accident, it is said that it has gone bankrupt and disappeared, and the parents invested all their belongings in the scientific research institution as a shareholder, but the accident died, the scientific research institution went bankrupt and dissolved, and all the belongings were naturally lost.

Poor Chen Xiao, a sixteen-year-old child, only got a pension.

Then the debt collector of the family came to the door. took away all the private cars, villas, mansions, etc. in Chen Xiao's family.

Later, Chen Xiao learned that his parents had a disagreement with the partner of the scientific research institution on the research direction, and forcibly insisted on continuing his research, and mortgaged the family's house and car to the bank for the scientific research funds. was originally a rich child, but he became a poor man overnight.

Fortunately, his parents put the old house where the family lived before it was underdeveloped in Chen Xiao's name early, so it was not taken away by the bank.

After Chen Xiao used the pension to handle the funeral of his parents, he moved back to the old house without saying a word.

At the beginning, a half-grown child of his age suddenly encountered such bad news and blows, and I was afraid that nine out of ten would collapse.

But Chen Xiao has been accustomed to independent life since she was a child, and her ability to bear it is surprisingly strong, and she actually survived it for him alone.

It's just that later he became more and more silent and didn't like to talk.

When he was young, he also tasted the warmth and coldness of the world, when his family was good, all the relatives in the family were very affectionate with him, and when he was down, those relatives seemed to be like avoiding the plague and stayed away from him.

What uncles and uncles, even after the funeral, they are far from being seen.

Chen Xiao didn't want to rely on these people at all, he was already sixteen years old back then, and he was already an adult in terms of law, and he had been a person all these years, and he didn't bother to look at the faces of those relatives.

The only thing that made Chen Xiao feel a little emotional was the aunt who had been taking care of herself before.

A kind and gentle woman in her forties, who has been working as a part-time worker in her own family for many years, when her family is in trouble, this aunt is reluctant to Chen Xiao, and even has the idea of adopting Chen Xiao: she has no blood relationship with Chen Xiao, a woman who works as a domestic helper, her income is not rich, and she has her own children to support and study, but she has this kind thought, which is enough to move Chen Xiao.

Compared with those relatives, this aunt was regarded by Chen Xiao as the only person close to her.

It's just that Chen Xiao resolutely refused the perseverance to follow her home, but insisted on returning to the old mansion to live alone.

In order to make a living, Chen Xiao, who had lost her financial resources, began to work to make money.

He was originally a child of a rich family, and when his parents were alive, his family was very good, living in villas and mansions, as well as private famous cars, and wearing international famous brands.

He has been extremely smart since he was a child, probably inherited the smart genes of his parents' Frankenstein, played a good piano since he was a child, dared to drive a sports car on the highway at the age of fourteen to a speed of two hundred per hour, and at the age of fifteen, he used a computer to hack a foreign portal, and before the bad news of his parents came at the age of sixteen, he had already begun to learn karate and prepare for the high level.

It's hard to imagine how such a rich boy who has had no worries about food and clothing since he was a child survived in such a situation.

Probably because of the perseverance of Frankenstein inherited by his parents.

He went to school during the day and found a place to work at night.

He worked as a repairman in a computer company, played the piano in a hotel, and even worked as a packer in a supermarket.

Although he is young and it is difficult to find a job, he has a sharp mind, does things sincerely, and he is handsome and pleasant in appearance, and he will be able to support himself slowly.

For example, this fast food restaurant, since he came to work, has attracted female students from several nearby schools to eat, so that the manager does not know how many times he snickered behind his back.

Chen Xiao even vaguely knew that many of his life stories were deliberately revealed by the bad manager to these female students and used to cause topics.

As a result, the business of fast food restaurants is getting better and better, and the manager is naturally making money.

But even in the most difficult times, Chen Xiao has never done anything bad: in fact, there was once an acquaintance who was a hacker hacking someone else's website and wanted to pull him to do some "business" together: forging and cracking credit cards.

He only had a week's worth of living in his pocket at the time, and he simply refused in the face of such an temptation.

Because, when he was a child, his father told him: In the world, you must do right, walk straight, if you do bad things, even if you are not caught, you can't escape your heart.

Although the relationship between his parents and Chen Xiao is not deep, he firmly remembers this.

Without an expensive sports car, Chen Xiao rode a bicycle to school to work.

Without a luxury villa, you can live in an apartment with peace of mind.

There is no opportunity to enter and exit high-end hotels, and Chen Xiao eats well at the roadside stalls.

Fortunately in the midst of misfortune, before his parents died, they once paid the tuition fees of several years in the famous school where Chen Xiao studied at one time.

Otherwise, with the tuition standard of the most expensive and famous aristocratic school in the city, Chen Xiao could not afford it by virtue of his part-time job.

"Wow, it's him, it's the son of a rich family in distress."

"Yes, so handsome and stylish" "Wow, look at him, look at us" A table of little girls with eyes full of stars.

Chen Xiao raised her eyebrows, turned around and walked into the backcourt.

Left a bunch of little girls sighing in disappointment.

At noon, Chen Xiao finished work, changed back into her casual clothes, and said hello to the manager before leaving.

"Chen Xiao."

The cute female clerk called him, stood behind the counter and looked at Chen Xiao, squinting her eyes and smiling sweetly, her eyes were not big, but her smile was slightly crooked, a little more cute and pleasing: "Hey, today is your birthday" After speaking, she lowered her voice: "I peeked at the staff register." ” Chen Xiao was stunned, the girl peeked at the manager and didn't care, quietly took out a box wrapped in gift wrapping paper from her pocket, handed it to him, squinted her eyes and smiled: "Happy birthday." ” "Thank you."

Chen Xiao's expression was a little unnatural.

The gift box in my hand is not big, but the wrapping paper on it is a little twisted, obviously not wrapped in the gift company, but by this colleague.

He thought for a moment and, according to politeness, opened the box in person, but inside it was a new small 4.

He was stunned for a moment and glanced at the girl in front of him.

The girl blinked: "Last time you said you liked this one."

My memory is very good" Seeing Chen Xiao's expression again, she hurriedly added: "Don't say no, I forgot to bring it in the morning because I remembered to take it when I went out, and I turned back to my home halfway to pick it up, and I was late." ” After speaking, he said softly in a soft voice: "If you are embarrassed, it will be my birthday in a few days, and you can also give me something at that time." ” As soon as she said this, Chen Xiao didn't refuse, thought about it for a while and nodded to accept it, with a sincere smile: "Thank you." ” Looking at this girl with a hint of shyness in her eyes, after being watched by so many little girls in the store for a few months, he still didn't know what this colleague was thinking sighed in his heart, but finally he was not embarrassed to tell the girl his original plan: he planned to resign at this fast food restaurant by the end of this month.

Because he happened to find a new job to be a tutor, it was better than being admired by a group of little girls while working here every day.

Well, when it's her birthday, I'll give her one more thing back.

Out of the store, from the back to push out his own bicycle, Chen Xiao stepped on, he felt the phone in his pocket vibrating, picked up a look, the caller ID is a series of unfamiliar numbers Although I don't recognize it, Chen Xiao recognizes the area code at the beginning, which is actually abroad.

After a moment's hesitation, he pressed the answer button.

"Is it Mr.

Chen Xiao" The voice of a strange woman, listening to the voice, should not be young.

The voice on the phone was noisy, and it seemed that there was a car around the person on the other end of the phone.

Moreover, the other party spoke standard English.

Fortunately, there was a pair of parents working abroad in her family since she was a child, and Chen Xiao is still very proficient in English.

"Yes."

Chen Xiao replied.

"Excuse me, did you receive it?"

"What something" Chen Xiao was a little dazed, it couldn't be that he recognized the wrong person.

"You are Chen Xiao, and the address is No.

XX, XX Street, K City, yes" The person on the other end of the phone seemed to be very nervous and a little anxious.

"The address is correct, but who are you?"

"The address is right.

You're out now, please go home immediately, and make sure to check that thing, it's important."

"You are" "Dudu" The other party hung up.

Chen Xiao frowned and thought about it for a while, but he couldn't think of anything, anyway, he had to go home to change his clothes, and go to work as a tutor in the afternoon.

I didn't want to do it at all, so I got on my bicycle and drove all the way home.

Chen Xiao's old house is the former residence of her parents when they were young and just got married.

It is said to be an "old house", but in fact, the age is quite new.

A three-bedroom, two-living apartment, 100 square meters.

For ordinary people, the area is not small.

When Chen Xiao was in financial difficulties, she once considered living in one of the bedrooms by herself, renting out the other two, and collecting some rent to supplement her life.

But then he dismissed the idea.

He knows his own temperament, because his parents have not been around since he was a child, his temperament is slightly more withdrawn than his peers, and he doesn't like others to disturb his space.

Especially after the death of his parents, he doesn't like to talk even more.

If you find a roommate, it will be troublesome if you don't get along.

Later, he gradually became able to earn money by working part-time, and there was no problem in his life, so he simply stopped thinking about this problem.

Riding all the way back home, entering the door to change shoes, wash his face and drink water In May, the temperature in this southern city was a little high, and he rode back again, sweating a lot, and almost forgot the strange phone call just now.

As soon as he could catch his breath, he heard the doorbell ring outside.

When I opened the door, there were several Caucasian men in uniform standing at the door.

"Mr.

Chen Xiao" one of them said politely.

After seeing Chen Xiao nodding, he took out a form: "We are entrusted to send you a package, please show your documents, and then sign for it." ” The way these people are dressed is no different from those ordinary employees of international express companies, but the marks on their uniforms are not the common companies such as "DH" or "FedEx" that Chen Xiao is familiar with.

Rather, it's an "S".

This is the abbreviation of which company Moreover, behind these men, in the stairwell, there was a refrigerator about one person tall, the size of a refrigerator, and the outside was wrapped in a hard shell and plastic materials Who will send me a refrigerator or send it from abroad by air to such a large refrigerator from abroad, and the shipping cost is almost catching up with the price of the refrigerator Some took out the documents in a daze, the other party checked that it was correct, and Chen Xiao signed the form with some doubts Several couriers delivered the "refrigerator" with the movable wheels underneath to the room, and then politely said goodbye.

Leaving Chen Xiao alone, he was stunned when he looked at such a big guy in front of him.

After a while, Chen Xiao patted his head, looked for scissors, and opened the bag After scrambling and opening the extremely tightly packed shell, Chen Xiao saw the contents at a glance When The scissors fell to the ground and bounced twice.

And Chen Xiao subconsciously took a few steps back, looking at the "refrigerator" in front of him dumbfounded.

Uh, how to say it.

In a sense, this is indeed a "refrigerator", or rather a "freezer" is more appropriate for everything.

The base of this thing inside is made of metal, but the outer shell is transparent glass, which is obviously thickened and reinforced.

Through the glass, there seems to be a faint chill in this freezer.

But that's not the most important thing And most importantly: there's a man in this freezer A girl who looks no older than herself, with long pale blonde hair, her eyes closed, and the outline of her facial features is actually a stunning white skin that she has never seen before, as if it is blown out, even in the freezer, there is no stiffness at all.

The long eyelashes enveloped her eyes, but it seemed to fall into a sweet sleep, the small and erect nose bridge, the soft and delicate lips, even if she was asleep with her eyes closed, but there was a thrilling beauty What's more Chen Xiao was stunned syllable He subconsciously took a step back, but guessed the pair of plastic shells that had been removed, but suddenly saw a letter floating out of it.

Taking a deep breath and trying to come back to his senses, Chen Xiao quickly picked it up and opened it, and saw a few lines of English on the letterhead inside: "Mr.

Chen Xiao, Unfortunately, I'm going to bother you in the end.

This package is the most valuable legacy left by your parents.

I have been entrusted by them to take care of him for two years, but now, I can no longer take on this entrustment.

As a last resort, I will hand over to you when I am no longer able to continue this job, as your parents have asked me to do so.

I am sure that you will take care of this most precious legacy left by your parents.

Finally, your parents are the greatest scientists I've ever met in my life Good luck."

The following inscription is an English letter "three".

"three-three" Is there anyone in this world who would take such a name?
