Chapter 639 Night Attack (Part 2)
If there is anything in this world that can be more embarrassing than bragging and being exposed on the spot, it is when you are bragging the most happily and discovering that the person involved is outside the window, looking at you with a strange expression.
After making a random excuse that "it was already late at night" and coaxing away the female officials and servants who wanted to hear more gossip, Princess Veronica, who did not retreat even in the face of the artillery fire from the Northern Kingdom, was treated as if she was being tortured. He opened the window of his bedroom, lowered his head and whispered with a flushed face:
"You...you...when did you come?"
"When you asked the female official to keep an eye on the Ministry of Finance."
"..."
Doesn’t that mean you heard everything? ! ! !
After learning this extremely tragic fact, Princess Veronica’s hanging heart finally died completely.
Under Leon's strange gaze, the sunset-like color spread from her cheeks to behind her ears, and even her neck, which was covered by the collar of her nightgown, was suffused with a thin layer of light red.
"and you……"
The princess, who wished she could find a crack in the ground and crawl into it, said in a trembling voice:
"Then why don't you come in? Or... make a little noise?"
"I saw you were having a good time chatting, so I didn't bother you."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Ahhhhhhhhhh! ! !
Although you didn’t disturb our chat, you have already beaten my shame to death!
After facing Leon in silence for a while, the princess, who was screaming crazily in her heart, turned sideways and let Leon into her bedroom. Then she turned away and whispered:
"Then you came to me because you wanted to..."
"Um...I came to you, mainly because I have something to ask."
Although he had completely listened to the "love history" compiled by the princess, but seeing that she was so embarrassed that she might run away at any time, Leon, who still wanted to ask something, did not continue to hold on, but asked straight to the point:
"What's going on with the wedding next month? Why did I decide it without knowing anything?"
"I've looked for you several times..."
Seeing that Leon seemed to want to "indict the enemy", Princess Veronica couldn't help but blinked her eyes, and then said pitifully: "But you were not at home all the time, so I really had no choice but to take care of her first. Our marriage is settled."
"..."
No...what are you talking about?
Leon asked speechlessly:
"Why can't you do anything? Now that you have most of the kingdom in your hands, is there still someone forcing you to marry me?"
"Yes, I have."
Princess Veronica, who slowly calmed down, blinked and replied seriously: "Although my father is ready to give up the throne, I am only the princess after all, and many things cannot be justified. To do it, you must truly become the king before you can truly take over everything in the royal family.
According to the laws of the kingdom, an unmarried prince or princess cannot succeed to the throne. I must get married before I can become the next queen, so I must marry you as soon as possible. "
Do you have to get married to inherit the throne?
Leon couldn't help but frown when he heard this, and then asked with disbelief: "Why haven't I heard of it? When did the kingdom have such rules?" "It will be there soon."
"ah?"
"My proposal has not been passed yet, but when the House of Lords convenes next time, this article will be written into the laws of the kingdom."
"?!?!"
Co-authoring is actually your rule!
I almost got carried away by this saucy remark. Seeing Princess Veronica habitually teasing him again after successfully getting over the embarrassing period, Leon couldn't help but darken his face, and then without hesitation countered:
"So what about your reserve? Didn't you just say that if I hadn't pursued it too passionately, you definitely wouldn't..."
"Don't...ah!"
Unexpectedly, Leon, who had already skipped this topic, would suddenly turn back and dig into his dark history. Princess Veronica couldn't help but screamed, and rushed over with a blushing face, trying to reach out to cover Leon's mouth.
However, she didn’t know whether it was due to panic or because she had too much capital to control her balance. Princess Veronica had just taken a step forward when the fluffy slippers under her feet were rubbed off by the wrinkled carpet, and she staggered to get ready. Throw it down.
Seeing that she actually closed her eyes and seemed ready to be thrown hard, Leon couldn't help but curled his lips speechlessly, and then quickly stepped forward to catch her.
Huh... so dangerous!
Half lying in Leon's arms, after taking two quick breaths, the frightened princess was about to say something, but she found that Leon turned his head away slightly unnaturally, and his earlobes seemed to be a little bit... Slightly red.
Uh-huh?
……
When he reached out to stop Princess Veronica, Leon already felt a little regretful.
If he had to use words to describe his feelings, it would be that he was bumped softly by a water bag that could almost sink a person, which really made people feel uneasy.
In addition, there was still a charcoal fire burning in the fireplace in the bedroom. Princess Veronica was only wearing a single-layer pajamas without velvet. The warmth radiated from her plump body was almost unreserved. come over.
To be honest, for me in adolescence, this... is somewhat unbearable...
"Your Highness?"
After waiting for a few seconds and seeing no movement, Leon relied on his great perseverance to gently push his arm outward, trying to help her stand up again.
But what Leon didn't expect was that the body that he pushed away a little didn't actually stand upright. Instead, it was wrapped around him softly. A pair of warm arms quietly passed around and gently rested on it. On his own waist.
I knew you were afraid of this~
He went around Leon’s back and touched his hands up and down, and found that the muscles on his back were obviously tense. The princess, who was buried in Leon’s arms, couldn’t help but smile slyly, and then reached out to secretly tug. She grabbed the lapel of his clothes, raised her head and said with a frightened expression: "It was so close... I almost fell. Fortunately, I have you."
"..."
Fake or not! Fake or not!
Seeing that Princess Veronica started to pretend to be pitiful again, Leon couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, and then raised his hand to grab her shoulders and push her out. However, the skirt of her clothes had already been grabbed first, and Leon pushed. After two attempts, he had to give up and said helplessly: "What do you want to do again?"
"What don't I want to do~"
The princess, who had regained the upper hand, smiled proudly, then blinked and said: "Have you forgotten? It was you who came to me to talk about the wedding~ By the way, what kind of wedding dress do you think I should wear that day? Solemnity A little quieter? Or a brighter one?"
"..."
Let’s talk about it. The question now is not what wedding dress to wear, but why to wear a wedding dress?
Knowing Princess Veronica's level of "climbing along the pole" quite well, Leon immediately did not hesitate... shivered, then grabbed the hand that was drawing circles on his back, and tried his best to hold on straight. Face said:
"Compared to this, you..."
"Compared to this, aren't you a little rude~"
After the grabbed hand turned around and held Leon's right hand, Princess Veronica squeezed into Leon's arms, then blinked her eyes and asked knowingly with an aggrieved face:
" Leon~Why don’t you look at me when you speak?”
