"Is your injury healed?"

"Yes"

Luo Xun looked at Chen Sha who kept staring at her, feeling uneasy. Not knowing what Chen Sha actually wanted to do, she unconsciously glanced at Yin Nanzhao. Yin Nanzhao's hand was in fist. He was looking out the window, showing clearly that he would stay out of it.

Luo Xun said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I know I am out of my own selfishness..."

Chen Sha displeasedly interrupted her, "Don't say sorry!"

Luo Xun immediately shut up. She lowered her head in silence and nervously squeezed her hands together as if she wanted to give herself a little support.

Chen Sha knew that she had misunderstood his meaning. His heart became more and more upset. He tried to smile but didn't succeed so he could only soften his tone as much as possible, "You said that you lost your memory and you don't know anything. I believe it is true."

Luo Xun suddenly raised her head. Her expression was surprised and happy with indistinct tears in her eyes.

Chen Sha said: "I believe you did not do anything to harm Odin Federation."

Luo Xun restrained her excitement and said seriously: "I have always been very grateful that you and Feng Lin voted for me to work in the Institute at that time. I promised that I will never do anything to let down Odin Federation. I swear, as long as I live to that day, I will definitely keep the promise and will never betray Odin Federation."   

"I believe!" Chen Sha tone was serious, made his first promise to Luo Xun.

Eleven years ago, he did not give her a chance, nor did he give himself a chance.   

Eleven years later, he's willing to start with unconditional trust, no need for a proof, no need for a reason, just trusting her because she's her.

Yin Nanzhao, who had been quiet like a wall painting, suddenly interrupted: "If you become the empress of Al Empire, from then on the emperor and empress live happily ever after together, perhaps can't keep a secret shut!"

Chen Sha frowned, his face was puzzled, "The empress of Al Empire?"   

Luo Xun hurriedly said: "Don't mind him! He's unhinged talking nonsense!"

Chen Sha stared at Luo Xun with a weird expression.   

Luo Xun realized that there was a big problem with her attitude towards Consul. She bluntly explained: "What I mean is... Your Honorable Lord Consul suddenly became... very humorous, making a joke, haha... making a joke!"  

"You mean, what you said about the emperor and empress were all a joke?" Yin Nanzhao leaned lazily on the back of the chair, both hands resting on the armrests. His tone had no slightest temperature, couldn't tell if he's enjoying or angry.

Luo Xun stared at him angrily.   

Chen Sha feared that she would offend Consul, he hurriedly stood in front of Luo Xun and said to Yin Nanzhao: "Your Excellency, I want to take Luo Xun back. I will take care of her until the investigation is clear."   

Yin Nanzhao lowered his gaze. His fingers lightly tapped the carved armrest of the chair, making a crisp ticking sound.  

Luo Xun and Chen Sha couldn't help holding their breath, waiting for his decision.   

Yin Nanzhao raised his eyes looking at Luo Xun and asked, "Do you want to stay, or leave with Chen Sha?"   

Luo Xun said, "I want to go back to prison."   

"Won't do!" Chen Sha resolutely rejected.

Yin Nanzhao said: "You have only two choices, stay with me here, or go with Chen Sha there."

Luo Xun looked at Yin Nanzhao and looked at Chen Sha then said helplessly: "I better stay here!"   

Chen Sha didn't understand and couldn't help but ask bluntly: "Don't you hate Consul that much?"

Luo Xun gnashing her teeth, "Exactly because I hate him so I had to trouble him. My current identity is not clear, indeed a big trouble, and..." She smiled apologetically at Chen Sha, "I am not Princess Lorraine. Our marriage relationship had been dissolved. I'm very thankful for your willingness to believe me, but I can no longer accept your help."  

No more relationship?

Chen Sha felt heartache. He suddenly grabbed her hand and was about to say something, Zi Yan abruptly rushed in like a gusty wind, "Big news! General Joseph showed up, telling the truth about the real or fake princess incident mastermind."   

Luo Xun immediately turned around and walked towards Zi Yan, with her hand naturally taken out of Chen Sha's palm. She didn't even realize what Chen Sha did just now.   

Zi Yan looked at Luo Xun, slightly taken aback.   

He stared at her, looking up and down, seeing she was in good spirits, he let go of his hanging heart. Originally he had a stomach full of questions, but now was not the time, so he could only talk about business first.

Zi Yan projected the video to the center of the living room, "General Joseph just released a public speech on the Star Network."   

General Joseph who had deserted the Al Empire and escaped to the space appeared on the virtual screen.  

He wore wrinkled military uniform and seemed to be worn out. He apologized to the people of Al Empire, repeatedly affirming that he was definitely not treason, but he didn't want to bear false charges and died in injustice.

General Joseph admitted that he acknowledged and cooperated with the operation of replacing the princess with a death row convict, but he only took order from the crown prince Yingxian Shao Jing in cooperating with him. He didn't expect that after the incident was exposed, the crown prince would immediately arrest him and attempted to kill him as of investigation then framed all charges on him. He had nowhere to go and could only escape from Al Empire for the time being.

General Joseph proclaimed that he had evidence in his hand to prove all his excuse, but he currently did not want to announce it to the entire universe in this way, because it would harm the Al Empire. Yingxian Shao Jing was guilty, but the people of Al Empire were not guilty.   

General Joseph requested Al Empire emperor to set up an independent investigation team, temporarily dismissed Yingxian Shao Jing from all duties, and should not gave him privilege just because he was the crown prince.

...   

Zi Yan shook his head and said with a smile: "No matter the Al emperor agrees or not, Al Empire has faced a big turn."   

Chen Sha said indifferently: "Don't keep nosy other people's jokes. The crown prince of Al Empire got involved. The federation pro-war faction will have even more reason to start a war."   

Zi Yan kneaded his forehead and sighed with a headache.   

Yin Nanzhao stared at the screen. His finger clicked on the metal button on General Joseph's military uniform. "The buttons on the military uniform are of good quality, especially buttons on the general's uniform."  

Zi Yan immediately enlarged all buttons, on them reflected the scene opposite to General Joseph.   

The intellectual brain took all pictures to correct and assembled together then synthesized a complete picture… a set of professional shooting apparatus was placed in front of white wall, and a blurred figure stood behind the camera.   

"Found some good stuff." Zi Yan whistled a jolly voice and merged the image projected on the camera with the image in the metal button. The figure gradually became clear.   

A tall beautiful woman with long-haired trail over her shoulders appeared on the screen.   

Luo Xun cried out in surprise.

This face, she had never met the real person, but it had always engraved in the bottom of her heart, never dared to forget.

All three men looked at Luo Xun.   

Luo Xun said with paled face, "She is the real Princess Lorraine."   

Zi Yan suddenly saw the light, "No wonder she looks very familiar! The information I collected back then, Princess Lorraine looks like this." It's just that later the princess disfigured herself to defy marriage and had plastic surgery with broken-hearted, he gradually forgot this face.   

Chen Sha stared blankly at the real princess who was completely unfamiliar in front of him.   

Was this the woman who should have married him eleven years ago? Was she his current legal wife?
