Chapter 99 Cinderella The Return of the Dragon King
Prince Eric and his bride Ariel stepped out of the carriage.
The distinguished crown prince and his newlywed wife cordially greeted the astonished passers-by nearby without any pretense.
Then, the two walked towards Cinderella's yard.
In the yard at this time, Cinderella had gone back to the house to do other tasks, while the two sisters were still chatting under the shade of the tree.
When they saw the handsome prince and the beautiful bride, the two sisters were stunned at first, and then panicked.
"Oh my God, isn't this the eldest prince Eric of the Kingdom of West Asia and his new wife? They just held a grand wedding a few days ago, and the whole kingdom knows about it!"
"They are the future king and queen of the Kingdom of West Asia! Why do such big shots suddenly come to our house?"
They quickly ran home to inform their mother.
"Mom, mom, the prince is coming to our house."
Cinderella's stepmother thought her two daughters were joking.
"What are you talking about? The dance will have to wait until tonight. Why did Prince Henry come all the way to see us?"
As a wealthy family in the town, although they also received invitations to Prince Henry's ball, they were only distributed in batches.
"It's not Prince Henry, it's his brother, the eldest prince Eric!" The two sisters gestured in a panic and pointed out the window.
"Crown Prince Eric?" The stepmother looked out the window and saw the luxurious carriage and Prince Eric and Ariel walking towards their yard.
She was startled and quickly put on her most beautiful clothes without any hesitation. Because the movements were so hurried, both shoes were put on backwards.
The stepmother hurriedly ran out of the door to greet the prince. Voiceover:
"Oh, Your Highness, why are you and your beautiful bride here?"
The stepmother knew that this eldest prince was the future king of the Kingdom of West Asia, and his status was much higher than that of his younger brother, Prince Henry, who was about to hold a ball! No one in the kingdom wanted to have a good relationship with the future king.
What would be the purpose of such an important person coming here in person?
Prince Eric smiled and said:
"I came here to find a beautiful and kind girl to invite to my brother Prince Henry's ball."
Cinderella's stepmother was shocked and nodded hurriedly:
"Oh, I do have two beautiful daughters. I don't know who you are looking for. I will let them out right now!"
Soon, the two sisters also put on their most beautiful clothes and prepared to go out to meet the prince.
Before they came out of the house, they were still arguing about which of the girls the prince would invite.
"Although I am indeed a beauty, it is not enough for His Royal Highness Prince Eric to come in person and invite me, right?" the eldest sister said.
"Sister, why are you so beautiful? The one His Highness wants to invite is of course me!" said the second sister.
"Oh my God, my daughters, what are you thinking? Stop dreaming!"
My mother couldn't stand it anymore and expressed her guess:
"I think His Highness Prince Eric must have found the wrong home. How could such a big shot come to invite you in person? When His Highness the Prince sees that you two are not the people he is looking for, he will understand. .”
Cinderella was sweeping the floor. When she saw the panic of her two sisters and stepmother, she knew that the prince was coming. Just when she was about to say something, she heard her stepmother yelling at her:
"Cinderella, stay in the house and don't go out! You must not let His Highness see your dirty look!"
After saying that, the stepmother took her two sisters and went out.
Cinderella stayed in the house quite aggrieved, becoming increasingly sad. As soon as Prince Eric saw the two sisters, he said:
"No, they are not the ones I want to invite."
I saw Prince Eric taking out an extremely exquisite invitation - the invitation was completely different from the ones distributed in batches, and the words on it were all gilded.
"The girl I want to invite is named Cinderella. She must live here."
Both stepmother and sister thought they heard wrongly.
While the mother and daughter stood stunned, Prince Eric took Ariel directly into the house with the door open.
As soon as they entered the door, they saw Cinderella wearing dark and dirty clothes.
"You are Miss Cinderella, right?" Prince Eric greeted warmly, as if he didn't see the dirty dust on her body.
"Yes, that's me." Cinderella nodded nervously.
"Great." The prince looked very happy.
"Miss Cinderella, I came here from the royal capital just to find you! I would like to invite you to attend my brother Prince Henry's ball. Will you agree?"
Cinderella nodded tremblingly, feeling that everything happening in front of her was unreal.
Am I dreaming?
The crown prince of the West Asian Kingdom made a special trip here just to invite... me?
Because she was too shocked, her whole body seemed to have been struck by lightning, and she stood there without answering in time.
After discovering that Cinderella did not agree, Ariel, the wife beside the prince, suddenly looked anxious.
"No, Eric, Miss Cinderella doesn't seem to be willing." Ariel said with a gloomy face.
"That's terrible. If Miss Cinderella doesn't come to the ball, His Majesty will definitely be furious!" Prince Eric also looked anxious.
Prince Eric held the arm of Cinderella in front of him - he seemed not to notice the dirty stains on her body at all, as if the girl was wearing luxurious silk clothes.
The crown prince of the kingdom said with great sincerity:
"Please, Miss Cinderella. Please be sure to attend my brother Henry's ball. Don't worry, this will only take up one night of your time at most!"
Ariel also pleaded:
"Yes, if Miss Cinderella does not attend Prince Henry's ball, then there is no need to hold this party."
Cinderella was completely confused and had no idea what to say.
No, no, what is going on?
No, I didn’t want to refuse!
"No, no, that's not what I meant..." Cinderella waved her hands repeatedly.
At the same time, it was not only Cinderella who was confused, but also her two sisters and stepmother who were listening to the whole conversation.
"I must be dreaming." The eldest sister with dull eyes said, "I must have eaten too many midnight snacks before going to bed."
"Idiot, you are dreaming alone, how can you let me dream with you." The second sister, whose eyes were even duller, retorted, "It turns out that you ate my biscuits secretly. I will settle the score with you later."
< br>
"You are the idiot, we must be dreaming at the same time!" the eldest sister retorted.
"You two stupid daughters!" the stepmother lowered her voice, pulled the two people who were listening behind the prince away, pulled them out of the house into the yard, and poured a bottle of water on each of their heads.
The stepmother taught two daughters with wet heads:
"This is not a dream, listen carefully, your sister Cinderella must have an extraordinary identity!"
