Chapter 411: Chapter 249 High Society Chaos (Part 1)_1
Midnight, Kevin and Tang Mo sat in the carriage on their way home.
Despite his exhaustion, Kevin caressed the gemstone ring on his right hand, filled with the joy of a wish fulfilled.
The gift he had prepared with care—Tang Mo had finally put it to good use.
The three-tier aristocrat who visited that night was very satisfied with Tang Mo’s performance; the man was a history enthusiast who spent the whole evening engrossed in conversation with Tang Mo, ignoring the attentions of everyone else around them.
Afterwards, the man even expressed his willingness to “invite” Tang Mo to teach at his home as a family tutor, but Kevin had politely declined.
A one-time acquaintance could not compare to the exchange of long-lasting emotions.
Although the man regretted not being able to secure Tang Mo, he had still accepted a gift from Kevin: a beautiful platinum necklace valued at three thousand five hundred silver coins.
His willingness to accept the gift indicated that they had now made a connection.
Rain began to fall, the droplets hitting the carriage windows, blurring and enchanting everything outside.
Looking through the carriage window, he saw the carriage moving away from the brightly lit party venue, where the noise of festivity was gradually fading into silence.
Other nobles also kept Angel Envoys, but even though their memories were good, they still fell short compared to his own Angel Envoy.
Otherwise, why would the three-tier aristocrat have clung to Tang Mo for an entire evening of conversation?
Gazing at the dimming party venue until the tall building was completely obscured from view, Kevin reluctantly turned his head and sincerely said to Tang Mo, “Thank you very much, Mr. Tang Mo, you really helped me out a great deal today.”
“It’s nothing.”
Angel Envoys were always expressionless, no matter how significant the event, they never showed any emotion.
The noble class is born human and grows up human, a characteristic that clearly divides nobles and humans into two distinct groups, and also serves as proof of the nobility’s ancient, noble Priest lineage.
Even the lowest, thirteen-tier nobles, are born human.
However, interbreeding with the lower class means that no matter how noble the lineage, the offspring will be animals, thus completely eliminating the possibility of marriage between the two classes.
Frowning at the little horse in her arms, who was sleeping soundly, oblivious to his mother’s pleas,
he saw that the child was well protected by his impoverished mother, who, despite being soaked and shivering from the cold, was still carefully sheltering him.
Taking out a handful of copper coins, Kevin dropped them in front of her, suppressing his discomfort as he said, “Come to the quarry tomorrow, and make sure you take care of your child.”
“Yes, my lord! Thank you, my lord!”
The carriage moved on, and Kevin looked back at the woman kneeling in the muddy water gathering copper coins, feeling slightly better.
The Gods’ Envoys were all kind-hearted, and his actions just now must have earned him some points.
Gazing at the expressionless Tang Mo, Kevin feigned modesty as he said, “I could have ignored her, but my heart is just too kind.”
Meanwhile, Tang Mo watched the woman outside the carriage window and, after a long while, let out a deep sigh.
“Traveling ten thousand miles is better than reading ten thousand books,” he thought. Although he had long known that the ancient nobility system was a cruel one, actually witnessing it was still distressing.
He was aware he was playing a game, but the realistic scenes still made Tang Mo feel that those times were indeed too dark.
“Mr. Tang Mo?”
Interrupted from his thoughts, Tang Mo turned to Kevin and asked, “What is it?”
“I was just thinking, you’ve really done me a big favor today, and I don’t know how to thank you. Is there anything I can do for you?”
