This is…… Looking at the hand-painted ticket with a misty starry sky painted with watercolors and a small rose mark on the corner, Leon asked inexplicably: "You mean...the princess invited me to watch a play?" "Yes." After taking a curious peek at the sheep's head on Leon's desk, the maid sent by the princess to deliver the tickets bowed slightly and said respectfully: "Master Oscar Wilde's Morning Star Theater Company will perform one of his most classic plays today at the Central Cross Theatre. This is a very rare opportunity. Her Highness Veronica likes Wilde's works very much, and after learning the news, she immediately thought of you, so I hope you can spare some time this afternoon to accompany her to enjoy the Morning Star Theater Company's performance. " "..." I believe you! Recalling how he had been deceived into pieces when he broke off the engagement, Leon's complexion suddenly darkened slightly, and he instinctively became wary.
A super workaholic who treats his bedroom as an office, with nothing but files on the bookshelf and no spare books, could he be a drama lover? But pull it down! Anyone who is not a fool can see that this invitation is obviously not about wine. She is 100% here for herself! Relying on his extraordinary vigilance, he keenly recognized the "murderous intent" behind the ticket. Leon shook his head and returned the ticket. "Please tell her that I am going to work overtime today." Before, he suddenly came to break off the engagement without her being prepared, which must have caught her off guard, but even so, she was fooled into almost getting the certificate on the spot. This time she was obviously well prepared. If she dared to go to the theater with her, she would probably have dinner, go shopping, buy clothes, walk on the road, and look at the scenery... Wow, it's getting so late. , otherwise you wouldn’t have gone home today, etc., and then you would be completely trapped by her! If you watch this show, you will probably never come back! … "Your Majesty the Duke, please don't refuse in a hurry." It seemed that she had known what would happen. The maid who came to deliver the tickets was not surprised by Leon's refusal. Instead, she smiled and said softly: "Although your sister, Miss Anna, has recovered, she has been ill for so many years, so her body is not particularly healthy. She should still take care of herself carefully, and Her Majesty Veronica can just find the best in the entire king's capital. pharmacist……" After hearing what the maid said, Leon couldn't help but frown and said: "So, what she means is that if I want to help Anna get well, then in exchange, I have to accompany her to watch today's drama?" "No! No! Don't get me wrong!" When the maid heard this, she quickly shook her head and said: "Her Highness Veronica said that she has already made a similar mistake in front of you once, and she will never make this kind of mistake again. She will treat you sincerely in the future and will not play tricks with you again. Regardless of whether you go to watch today's drama or not, Miss Anna's body will receive the best care. Miss Anna's matter has nothing to do with her invitation to you. Her Highness Veronica has already sent someone to ask for the pharmacist this morning. . " "..."
"Also, in addition to recuperating Miss Anna's health, she is contacting several senior teachers to ensure that your younger brother and younger sister can get a better education as much as possible without changing schools. In addition, there are also funds for the Cleanup Bureau next year, which will be adjusted to the greatest extent, etc. Her Highness Veronica told me that these are not gifts or flattery, but an apology for what happened before. At that time, she was in a hurry and played some bad tricks with you. She felt very guilty about this, so she wanted to do something for you to make up for her fault. I also hope that you will not refuse and can give her a way to make up for you. Opportunity. " "..." Is she compensating me? She soldered the ticket directly to my hand! After listening to the maid's "narration", Leon couldn't help but let out a sigh, knowing that he would have to watch the drama this afternoon. It had only been one night, and the princess had already done so many things. In order not to irritate her own pride, she refused to admit "favour" or even "show kindness". She insisted on saying that it was to make up for the mistake last time. I hope I can give her a chance to make amends... She has accomplished this, and even kept her attitude so low. How can I still have the nerve not to watch a scene with her? "All right……" She used her strength from the family she cared about the most, showed the utmost sincerity when she first came up, and then lowered her posture to show her kindness without asking for anything in return... I felt like her weakness had been completely seen through by her... Under the fierce attack of the princess, Leon, who was not yet thick-skinned, had no choice but to silently collect the tickets on the table and prepare to bravely break into this dragon's den. "Actually, it's good to watch a drama... Where should I find her?" Seeing that he had no choice but to accept the ticket, the maid who delivered the ticket couldn't help but smile, then stood up and saluted, raised her hand and pointed towards the door, and replied in a warm voice: "Her Highness Veronica's carriage is now parked on the main road outside the police department. You can just go there. Her Highness should be waiting for you in the car." "..." Good guy, he actually came straight to the door... So she knew from the beginning that after I got the benefits, I would definitely lose face and agreed to accompany her to the theater, right? This woman is really... She may not be very smart, but she really understands human nature. She has only met me a few times, but she has found a way to control me. ... Since I can't resist, I can only enjoy it. Leon, who was clearly arranged by the princess, had to take the "Dragon's Lair Pass" to leave the Cleanup Bureau, and under the guidance of the maid, he found the carriage parked at the intersection. "Here! Here!" After seeing Leon's figure, the princess in a velvet dress leaned out of the window, waved at him vigorously, and then took the initiative to open the door and made way for the carriage, saying happily: "I thought you would be angry with me and refuse to go to the theater with me... Leon, you are so nice!" "..." Return me so nice... Stop it, okay? This is obviously all planned by you. Given your usual busy work, if you are not sure that I will definitely come, how could you spend time waiting here? However, although he saw through the princess's tricks at a glance, the little depression in Leon's heart caused by being "forced" to come here still disappeared uncontrollably in an instant when he saw the bright smile on her pretty face that was happy and angry because of his arrival. How to say it... For some people, you know that she is probably pretending, and even this smile may not be completely real, but you just can't be angry with her because of this. Even when you think about how much she has spent so much thought and effort just to get your favor, you will even feel a little touched in your heart. Even if you know that it is probably fake, you are willing to be a fool who doesn't understand anything and accompany her to act like this... Hiss! Leon, Leon, wake up quickly! You can't be a fool!
After taking a deep breath of the cold air and suppressing the throbbing in his heart, Leon silently boarded the carriage and asked as calmly as possible: "Your Highness, today..." "Call me Veronica." After sniffing her nose, which was a little red from waiting on the roadside, Princess Veronica took the initiative to hold Leon's arm, leaning her plump and soft body slightly, and said in a pleading voice: "It's really cold today, Leon, can you let me lean on you for a while? Just a little while!" "..."
