Chapter 804 No Need To Thank Me

As the chief of the Cao Clan, Lucilla had seen a lot of people over the past ten years, and as a result, her insight had grown exponentially. Therefore, she could see at a glance that the man in front of her was not as simple as he looked. The reason why she came to the Osmanthus Yard was that Lucas had told her that Mr. Rookie had arrived and stayed in this place.

Originally, she had planned to send people to call Mr. Rookie over, but she later changed her mind. If this he was indeed very different from others, and if he could be helpful to the Cao Clan, then she certainly needed to know who he was first. However, she was still on guard against him, as she had not yet discounted the possibility that her two uncles, who were after the position of the clan chief, could have arranged this whole thing. After all, it wasn't the first time that something like this happened.

When she arrived at the Osmanthus Yard, she was told that Mr. Rookie had gone out. She planned to leave and come back later, but she saw an osmanthus tree that was blossoming in the yard, so she decided to stop for a while and enjoy the flowers.

Later, Rocky saw her admiring the flowers. At that moment, their eyes met underneath the shadow that the flowers cast, but they didn't say anything.

With her wit and experience, Lucilla immediately guessed that the man in front of her was the legendary Mr. Rookie.

And when Rocky saw her, he could tell that Lucilla was not an ordinary woman and probably a lady of the Cao Clan.

Silence reigned between them, but their minds were filled with questions, as they analyzed and observed each other. It was Rocky who broke the silence.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt. The flowers are quite lovely, aren't they?" Rocky said with a smile but didn't bother to wait for a reply. He just nodded at her, and turned away to go back to his room.

At first, Lucilla was caught by surprise when he suddenly appeared, so she couldn't talk. But she was filled with confusion when he only made a passing comment and immediately turned to leave. After all, she was the chief of the clan, and most men would pay an arm and a leg just to get a moment with her. She was confident that she was alluring and irresis

nd how could the Beast Master Contest match up to that?

Rocky had recommended Juey to attend the Beast Master Contest because he had other plans since the beginning, and this was just a stepping stone.

"Is that so? I think if you take this kind of attitude when you participate in the Beast Master Contest, Mr. Rookie, you could encounter some surprises. His Royal Highness admires people like you who are talented but indifferent to fame and wealth," Lucilla said once again, as she hadn't given up yet.

"Miss Lucilla, you misunderstood me. I don't have any talent. Wait! Did you just say His Royal Highness?" Rocky exclaimed in surprise when he realized what she just said. 'His Royal Highness is Woods, right?' he thought to himself.

"Yes, I did say His Royal Highness." Lucila narrowed her eyes, as she noticed that Rocky's reaction seemed somewhat strange.

"Will His Royal Highness come to the Beast Master Contest?" Rocky asked suspiciously. The answer seemed obvious, as she wouldn't have mentioned Woods for no reason.

"The Beast Master Contest is of great importance to the royal family of the Timber Deity Empire, so His Majesty will attend it in person. And it won't be His Royal Highness alone, Princess Alyssa, who has received the admiration of the entire Timber Deity Empire, will also attend," Lucilla answered with a nod. At the same time, she discreetly observed the expression on Rocky's face, as she had a feeling that he was very interested in the prince.
