Chapter 167: Surprisingly, It’s a Case of Baijiehei (Hidden Black Under White)
"Duke Imoles is a noble?" Xu Jinglan timidly turned to Ye Fei and asked.
"Of course he’s a noble, and not just any noble, but a Guardian Duke who has established monumental merits for the Empire and all of humanity in the exploration of interstellar space. Any ancestor from his family could be randomly pulled out and would have made it into the history books with their own biography."
Ye Fei’s eyes widened as she was from a minor noble family herself and obviously understood what the name Imoles implied; she was left with her mouth agape in shock.
She hadn’t even considered another layer to the relationship.
"So, this person also comes from one of the Guardian Families," Ye Fei pointed to Celia, who was still struggling to snap back to reality.
If anyone was the most shocked here, it definitely was Celia.
She was so stunned that her mind was a complete blank, unable to fathom how Ah Foo could possibly become Major General Fu Xing’s wife—a connection between two seemingly unrelated individuals. She remembered from her childhood when Major General Fu Xing accompanied the Duke and paid respects to His Majesty at the court.
But because of the Fu Family’s traditions, their relationship with the Royal Family wasn’t as close as some other Guardian Dukes were.
