在公馆的花园中，直直站立着四十多名守约人，当他走近时，四十多张面无表情的脸同时向他转过来，真是说不出的……诡异。
Standing upright in the middle of the mansion’s garden were over forty covenantors. When he entered, over forty expressionless faces turned towards him in unison; this truly was indescribably… weird.
陆修樊走到尚可身边问道：“这是干什么？”
Lu Xiufan walked to Shang Ke’s side and asked him, “What is happening?”
“开会。”尚可回答。
“A meeting,” Shang Ke replied.
“在这里？”
“Here?”
“大人不是允许我自己安排吗？”
“Didn’t Sir wish me to arrange this on my own?”
“……”所以你就把堂堂王爵公馆当作“非法组织”聚集地了？陆修樊有些无奈地看着他。
“…” So you made His Excellency’s grand mansion into a gathering place for an “illegal organization”? Lu Xiufan gave him a helpless look.
这时，尚可将一名守约人叫过来，介绍道：“大人，他叫‘杨凯’，是一名保镖，以后我无法给大人开车，就由他代替，大人觉得怎么样？”
Presently, Shang Ke called over a covenantor, introducing him, “Sir, his name is ‘Yang Kai’, he’s a bodyguard. In the future, if I’m unable to drive you, he’ll be my replacements. What does Sir think about this?”
陆修樊的司机平时由护卫兼任，但是为免护卫被人威胁控制，每隔一段时间都会替换。如果配备一名守约人保镖兼司机，平时出行可以方便许多。
Lu Xiufan’s driver was also his bodyguard, but to prevent against the threat of the man coming under another’s influence, the driver will be replaced every so often. However, if a covenantor became combined driver and bodyguard, everyday travel would become much easier.
陆修樊盯着那名守约人看了半晌，然后让管家带下去试试身手。他以前从没想过雇佣守约人，一是寿命太短，二是太过死板。但是因为尚可的出现，让他逐渐改变对守约人的看法。尚可能力出众，品性纯良，遵循规则却又灵活机变，敢为人所不为，想人所不想。
Lu Xiufan stared at this covenantor for a long time before asking the housekeeper take him away to assess his skill. He’d never before thought to use a covenantor, first, because their lifespan was too short, and second, because they were too inflexible. However, after Shang Ke arrived, his views towards covenantors have gradually changed. Shang Ke had outstanding ability, a pure nature, abided by the rules but adapted agilely; he bravely acted in the interest of others and was considerate of others’ wants.
陆修樊已经见过不少守约人，但没有一个比他更优秀。变成守约人之后尚且如此卓越，那么变成守约人之前，又是怎样的耀眼夺目？
Lu Xiufan had previously met a significant number of covenantors, but he’d never met one more outstanding than Shang Ke. If Shang Ke was this exceptional after becoming a covenantor, how dazzling must he have been previously?
每当想到此处，陆修樊就对越家愤怒几分。正是他们的愚昧，毁掉了尚可本该意气风发的人生。
Every time he thought of the matter, Lu Xiufan felt a stirring of anger towards Yue Family. It was their short-sightedness that destroyed what should have been a promising life.
